ALL is QUIET AT TWO RIVERS

The four companies of state militia
ordered to this city by the governor
to maintain order during the strike,
got only as far as Manitowoc where
they remained two days and were then
ordered to return home After the
sheriff found it impossible to handle
the situation with his deputies, the gov
ernor was appealed to and the militia
was Immediately ordered here. When
they got as far as Manitowoc an inves-
tigation was made by the officers and
it was thought best not to bring the
soldiers to this city as everything was
quiet and orderly. Major Lee of
Oconto, who was in charge of the mill
tia, remained here few days to watch
developments and report to the gov
ernor He will keep in touch with the
situation through local officials.
Each day last week conferences were
held by the employers, but nothing to
lead to a settlement with the strikers
has been accomplished. The shops are
closed at present and il is reported that
they will remain closed until il is safe
for all men who desire to return to
work to do so without being interfered
with. Manufacturers positively refuse
to settle with the union, but have Of
fered to meet the men individually and
they are determined to adhere to this
point and not meet the demands of the
union. The employers and the men are
as far apart as ever and there is no
settlement in sight at the present time

Col. Kroll, Official D. c,
Cupid, Sees No Merit in
Compulsory Wooing.

Compulsory courtship for young
people planning marriage would
not be popular in this city.
Col William A. Kroll. the Off
cisl Cupid" who has aided more
than $4,000 couples to embark on
the sea OF matrimony. expressed
this opinion last night in COM
menting on the statement OF Judge
Hugo Oswald, of Spokane. Wash.
who believes that in order to keep
down the divorce evil. all young
people should come into court and
declare their intentions and then
be put on six months probation
before going to the altar.
Col Rroll believes that most
young men court the girls they
marry for at least six months,
anyhow. and have ample oppor-
tunity to fnd out serious defects
IN each other. II one of the other
goes wrong after marriage. Col
Kron declared, II is because the
moral obligation imposed upon
each at the time OF marriage was
not lived Up to.
II wouldn't be lived up to any
more afte- six months OF compul-
sorry couTtship, he believes, than it
would have been II they had mar
rted after q courtship in the ordi-
nary way.
Col Krou believes in neither
trial marriages or trial courtship
Courtship is itself trial. he
thinks. and therefore why try
something twice when it isn't nee
sssary.
SIX Months Often Too Long.
People know. Col Kron stated.
after an ordinary courtshIp II they
really love each other. A compulsory
courtship wouldn't shed any more
light on this subject II both parties
take seriously the obligation imposed
on them by marriage. Col. KrOll be-
Heves, 1t matters not how long or
how short the coUrtship has been
Honor is the chief asset Col. EroIl
stated Besides. he stated. long
cOurtship-even six months-is entire
ly too long for two people after they
have found out that they love each
other.
A compulsory oourtship Of SIX
months after a couple have already
undergone voluntary courtship
would be disastrous and work havoc
among the younger people, Col Kroll
Is sure.

FIRE IN TROY, VT.
S. Phenix House on F. r. Davis
Farm Destroyed Wednesday
Afternoon

About s o'clock Wednesday evening
fire broke out in the shed chamber of
the S. Phenix house on the F. R.
Davis house in Troy, VT, about one
mile out of Troy village on the Bur-
lington road, destroying the main
building and also a large quantity
of household effects. The neighbors
and farmhands from nearby in Troy
village arrived and rendered what as
sistance was possible under the cir
cumstances, but the blaze had gained
such a vicious Roadway that it was
impossible to save the main structure
and attention was given to getting
out what was available of the house
hold effects.
Mrs. Phenix was i'll in bed at the
time and was removed to the home
of neighbors nearby. The blaze was
caused by chimney burning out in
the afternoon but which had been
closely watched since it began. A
kitchen stove pipe running through
an Upper shed bedchamber is believ-
ed to have begun the mischief.
During the course of the fire,
Lionel Phenix, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
S. Phenix was badly injured by the
explosion of a hand chemical fire ex-
tinguisher being used to check the
flames.
The loss was heavy and will hardly
be covered by the insurance.
