Wisconsin Honors Three,

Our good and genial friend, Joseph
Gordon, has been highly honored by the
state department of agriculture. The
Press Bulletin of Feb. il, speaks of
the matter as follows:
''Three more untiring workers for
progress and improvement in farm life
and achievement have been added to
the growing list in Wisconsn's agricul-
tural hall of fame.
with appropriate exercises certif-
icates of appreciation were presented
on Feb. s, by Wisconsin, through its
College of Agriculture. to Joseph Cor
don. of Mineral Point; j O. Emery, 81
Edgerton, and Henry Krumrey, of Ply
mouth.
'Mr. Gordon has won the gratitude
of hundreds of stockmen by the effec-
tive way in which he has stood for
breed improvement through personal
as well as organized effort. He is
widely known as breeder of pure bred
dairy cattle and swine.
Honorary degrees of this kind have
ben conferred upon % men and one
woman since the plan was started in
1909. Seven of these people have been
residents of other states.

Gospel Meetings.

The gospel meetings which began
last Sunday in the Methodist Episcopal
church promise to attract great interest
in this community. Rev. Mr.. Taylor
spoke at both services on Sunday, u.s.
ing, in the morning the theme. "Op.
portua'ty and Responsibility of the
Chur :" and in the evening, God
ward or Woodward (which In
both these sermons the evangelist
showed great ability and deep earnest
ness and his words were given the clos
est attention. In spite of the severity
of the weather large number were in
attendance. At each service solo
was sung by Rev. Dr.. Davies to the
great enjoyment of all present. He al
so directed the song service in the eve
ming and showed his special adoption to
that work.
1t is conservative to say that both
members of this evangelistic team
made most favorable impression upon
the people who attended the meetings
on Sunday and their work among us has
commenced with a swing which fore
casts great success.
Subjects for remainder of the week
will be found displayed on another page

MORRIS l.. PARKINSON DEAD.
The Announcement Aroused Pereeptible
Sorrow Throughout this Community.

| Mr.. Parkinson, who was at the time
of his death Superintendent of the Iowa
County Home and Asylum, passed on to
the mysterious realms beyond from his
comfortable quarters in connection with
that institution at o. clock Tuesday
morning, Feb. Is, 1917, after linger-
ing Illness from internal troubles which
terminated in colitis.
Nigh unto fifty-five years ago Mr.
Parkinson was born in Fayette town
ship, Lafayette county. His frequent
| coming to our city from early life
brought him in close touch with the
citizens hereof. His gentlemanly con-
duct and uprightness in all business
transactions engrafted permanent re-
spect for him among our people of all
classes, and his untimely death is cause
for general regret.
About nine years ago the deceased
was united in marriage to Miss Anna
Phillips of this city. Five years ago
Mr.. Parkinson and his estimable wife
entered upou the duties of Superinten-
dent and Matron of the County Home
and Asylum. Their success in this ar
duous task is credited with special
praise throughout the state, and by
this death our county sustains serious
loss.
The body will be brought to this city
and rested at the home of j. w. Hutch
ison, brother-in-law of deceased, and
the funeral will take place Friday after
noon at 2 o'clock, Mr.. Parkinson be-
ing knight Templar, Masons will
attend in body and ofiiciate at the
burial services.
Survivors other than his wife are
three brothers, George, Stephen A. and
Rrobert, and one sister, Mrs. James
Jones of Sioux City, Iowa.

Our high school basket ball boys
met the Platteville team, one of the
best in this part of the state. at the
gymnasium Friday evening. The score
was % and 6 in favor of the visitors;
the game was unusually fast and inter
esting. The Mineral Point boys held
this heavy team at 10 and 6 the first
half, even surprising themselves. Two
weeks ago when they played at Platte
Wills they were beaten rs to A, so it
can be seen that the boys have done
some hard work ia the meantime hav-
ing only two nights week for prac-
tice. One discouraging feature Of the
game was the small attendance. The
team deserves more support and en-
enlargement from the school and town
people. Plan to see the Dodgeyille-

sCONsIN. THURSDAY. FEBRUARY Is, 1917.
Mrs. James kitto Passes Suddenly.

Mrs. Elizabeth Jane Kitto was the
daughter of the Rev. Christopher Hen
dra and wife. known to the older mem
bers of this community in connection
with pastorates in Mineral 7. int and
adjacent towns.
Mrs. kitto was born in Cornwall
England, Sept. 9, lS47. Two years
afterward she accompanied her parents
to their new home in the vicinity of
Linden, Wis, and later they became
residents of Mineral Point.
On Dec. 10, 1870, she was united in
marriage to James Kitto in this city,
which has been their home for the AZ
years since that event. Three children
survive their mother. namely Fred
erick. Christopher Stacey and Mrs.
Mary Elizabeth Stephenson The re-
naming members of the bereaved fam
lily are brothers, 2 sisters and grand
children.
Mrs. Kitto's passing was quite unex-
pected. Its suddenness came as a stun
ming blow to her family and friends.
For several days she had tenderly cared
for her little grandson Charles and had
nursed him back to health. This ne
cessitated great addition to other do
nestle duties and when she became the
subject of the generally prevailing
type of illness. her weakened condition
was unequal to the task of warding it
off, and despite the arrangements made
for her comfort, with no word to indi-
cate that even she was conscious of
nearing the journeys end, and with no
struggle, as the separation took place,
her spirit quietly quit its mortal tene-
ment and passed out into the unseen
sphere.
Mrs. kitto, when quite young, united
with the Church of Christ, and at the
time of her passing her name was en-
rolled among the membership of the
Congregational church of this city.
Funeral was held on Sunday after
noon and notwithstanding the intense
cold was largely attended by sympa-
thetic neighbors and friends. Rev.
w. j. C. Bond officiated.
