NEW CO. STOPS
GAS FAMINE
First Carload From Pure Oil Co.
Arrives When City Is Out
of Gasoline

The Pure Oil Co, Of Minneapolis,
who are opening up a new gasoline
and lubricating oil distributing station
in Ladysmith, received their first car
load of gasoline Wednesday. 1t was
a rather odd occurrence that the first
carload shipped here by the new COM
pany should arrive at time when
there was no gasoline in the city. The
Standard Oil Co. had a number of cars
enroute to Ladysmith that were
blocked in the Superior yards, result
ing in local gasoline famine that
would have been serious but for the ar
rival Of the Pure Oil Cots car. The
product of the latter company is sell
ing here at the same price as the Stan
dard and is of IS to 60 gravity test.
1t is understood that the Pure Oil Co.
will have an up-to-date filling station
here as soon as a suitable site is Sc
cured They have erected brick ware
house, 16x32, on East Miner-ay for the
storage of lJbricating oils and greases
and have located three large storage
tanks on the west side of the ware
house. One of the tanks is for kero-
sene. the other two being for gasoline,
one for high test and the other for the
cheaper grade.

Flew i'm France During War.-WOre T..
S. Uniform BY Special
Permission

Ruth Law, Americas first and fore
most girl aviator, who will fly here at
the Rusk County Fair September %
26, has only recently returned from the
Orient where she astonished the ma
tives of Japan, China and the Philip
pines with her wonderful trick and
stunt flying. Miss Law is the only
woman who has ever flown in the
Orient and the people received her with
open arms, showering presents and
praises upon her in every city.
Ruth Law is also the only woman
flier who has successfully mastered
stunt flying She holds record for
twenty-SiX loops made in one flight
for which she received beautiful gold
medal from the Governor of Alabama.
Immelman Turns Flip-Flops and
Spins are as easy for Ruth Law to do in
the air as driving an auto down a quiet
street is for most girls
Miss Law learned to fly at one of the
aviation schools in Boston in 1912.
Flying came very easy to her and
within a month she was driving her
own little aeroplane out over Boston
Harbor and attracting much attention
and commend in the press for her dar-
ing and skill. She took up flying at first
Just for the sport of it but she soon be-
came besieged with offers from amuse-
ment managers to give exhibitions of
her skill in flying in many large cities,
it was not long before her salary
reached a thousand dollars a day for
flying.
On November 10, 1916, Ruth Law
flew from Chicago to New York City a
distance of $50 miles establishing new
American Long Distance Record and
covering herself with fame and glory.
In 1917 she went to France as repre-
sentative of the New York World to
report on the progress of wartime
aviation i'm the Allied Countries. She
is the only woman of any nationality
who has flown in Frnace during the
war. Returning to this country at our
entrance into the war, Miss Law was
given special permission to wear the
United States uniform for her recruit
ing flights which she gave throughout
the country. 1t is said that her work
influenced thousands of young Ameri-
cans to enlist in the Air service. 1t was
only after the armistice was signed and
there was no longer any need Tor her
services at home, that she started on
her flying tour of the Orient that last
ed several months.
You will certainly want to see Ruth

CARNEGIE DIES
AT SUMMER HOME
Worlds Greatest PhilanthrOpist
Succumbs to Attack of
Pneumonia

Andrew Carnegie, steel magnate.
financier, the ''iron-master," and no
doubt the worlds greatest philanthro-
pist, died at his summer home near
Lenox, Mass, Monday morning of
bronchial pneumonia, after an illness
of less than three days. So sudden
was his death that his daughter, Mrs.
Roswell Miller, was unable to get to
her fathers bedside before he died. His
wife was with him.
Although Mr. Carnegie was taken
i'll Friday it was not until Monday
that his condition took a critical turn
Saturday it was said he was suffering
from severe cold, but it was no differ
ent, apparently, from other attacks he
had endured, and no fear was enter
tanned that it would prove fatal. Mr..
Carnegie had spent most of the summer
at LenoX, and up to a few weeks ago
enjoyed himself in almost daily fishing
trips on Lake Mahkeenac, which bor
ders his big "Shadow Brook estate.
and in riding about his grounds. His
advanced age and lessened powers of re-
SIStance haStened the end
Andrew Carnegie started as tele-
graph operator for. the Pennsylvania
railroad at $25 month. He was born
i'm Dunfermline, Scotland Nov. 25, 1885,
and came to Allegheny, Pa, when II.
He started giving in 1888 with dona
tions of $4,000 and $4,000 for libra
ries With the formation of the Unit
ed States Steel corporation in 1901,
Carnegie retired, with an estimated
fortune at nearly half a billion. BY
that time he had given away $4,000
900 for libraries. Upon his retirement
he made out gift program that aver
aged $1O,O0000O endowment toward
international peace and S1,5000O to
erect a peace building at The Hague.
The total Of his larger philanthropies
has been estimated at $2G5. 125,000 and
to this possibly S1O0,0O0,0O0 of miscel-
laneous gifts may be added. No man
ever launched a philanthropic cam
paign of similar dimensions.
Ladysmith has an enduring monu-
ment to the Laird of Skibo' in the
Dtd cICCl0I lieIe Ill IJOt
through the philanthropy of Mr.. Car
negie. The Ladysmith library is one
of 1000 such institutions that will per-
petuate his name throughout t he
world
Carnegie's mother, to whom he re-
peatedly gave credit for all that he
was, lived to be an Octogenarian. He
was so devoted to her that he hesitated
to marry Louise Whitefeld, of New
York, became his wife in 1887, how
ever and daughter, Margaret, was
born to them in 1897 Lieut.. Roswell
Miller, son of Roswell Miller, Milwau
kee, president of the Chicago, Milwau-
kee & ST Paul railway, married Miss

Carnegie bought the famous Skibo
castle in the north of Scotland in 1895
and since his retirement spent most of
his time there. The estate of $4,000
acres fronts twenty-five miles along
DOrnoch firth and the owner when
there spent his time sailing, motoring,
goIfing apld fishing.
Over $1.G00,00O was spent in improy-
ing Skibo and Carnegie's only desire
was for more territory. His Kingdom

RELEASE I. N. 7.
FOR FARM USE
Rusk County Farmers Can Get
10 Pounds Each of War Ex-
plOsive For a Trial

The War Department has released to
the state Of Wisconsin 100000 pounds
of r. r. Z. for land clearing. T. N. L.
is a powerful explosive the equal of GO
per cent dynamite. 1t is a salvage war
material which il it can be put to some
efficient purpose will be much better
than destruction of it as was first adj
vocated
Experiments have been made with L.
n. L. as stumping explosive and it
has been found very successful It did
the work we'll and was not found to be
any more dangerous than dynamite ac-
cording to all reports | have received.
The first carload that will be re-
ceived is for trial. The idea is to put
it out in 100-pound lots to farmers who
wish to use it. If they find it to be an
efficient effective stumping explosive,
more will be obtained However, be-
fore any large amount is released by
the war department, it must be shown
that it can be used effectively and eff
GENTLY.
No more than 100 pounds Of the eX
plosive can be obtained by any one
farmer and it is desired to distribute it
well over the county in order that re-
suits upon different types of soil can
be obtained.
The cost will be about 10 cents a
pound to cover the cost of cartridgeing
and transportation.
Application blanks have not been re-
ceived yet but probably will be in the
next two weeks. When these are re-
ceived everyone will be given the oppor-
tunity to order 100 pounds.
