Gets BEST TEST
AT DAIRY SCHOOL
WASHBURN BUTTER SCORES
FIRST PLACE
Marking OF 94.3O Given Product of
Chequamegon Creamery Associa-
ton. Maurice Hanson Pleased With
His Success.

Maurice Hanson, buttermaker at
the Chequamegon Creamery in this
city, has reason to feel mighty proud,
for Maurice has the distinction of
winning the highest score on butter
submitted for test at the Wisconsin
Dairy School for October, having a
test of 94.30. This was the highest
score awarded to any buttermaker in
the state who had exhibits at the
show and naturally is big boost for
the Washburn institution.
There is really hard competition at
the monthly shows of the Wisconsin
Dairy school and all of the leading
creameries nthe state enter the COM
petition. To win the honors is con-
sidered quite a distinction among
buttermakers throughout the state as
it is also to the creamery from which
the butter comes.
The big creameries where the cream
is gathered daily have much better
opportunity for winning the contest
for the cream is in better condition
than where it is gathered but two or
three times a week, but Mr.. lTan son
of the Chequamegon Association has
always been among the top-notchers
at the monthly tests which indicates
that the product of the Washburn in
stitution is as fine as is to be found
anywhere in the state.

fore Geld Weather Sets in for

vised the Times this morning to the

With the event Of cold weather the
past few days the office of She fuel
company in this city has been deluged
with inquiries as to when the hard
coal was to arrive. Mr.. Gibson ad-
vises The people t ODE patient. Be-

CABLE is Scene
OF SHOOTING
IL. o. STILL SHOTeBY HIS WIFE
MONDAY
90
After it is Claimed he Endeavored to
End Her Life. After Being Shot
Turns Weapon on. Self. Woman
Has been released.

Cable was the scene of a shooting
affair the first of the week when a
family row between Mr.. and Mrs. H
o. Still resulted in MIR. Still being
severely wounded SO that he had to
be taken to the hospital at Hayward
while Mrs. Still was brought to the
county Jail in this city but after
ward released because arrant
had been issued for her st.
According to the story as told in
this city Mr.. and Mrs. Still, whose
home is on the Eagle Knob road six
miles from Gable, in the vicinity of
Lake Owen, had beer separated for
some time. Mrs. Stsl had been re-
siding at the family residence while
Mr.. Still had been in different parts
of the country.
Recently, it is said, Ar. Still re-
turned to Gable and attempted to
patch up the family row.. but did not
succeed, and because of the refusal
of Mrs. Still to live with him again
decided to end it all by taking the
lives of both.
On Monday, it is alleged, Mr.. Still
went to the family residence and de-
Nanded admittance, which being re-
fused, he then fired a shot through
the window. This shot hit Mrs. Still
in the stomach. Abus,o,s striSing a
corset stay, glanced off without doing
material damage. 1t is then said
that Still fired second shot through
the door and then he went to the
kitchen door and fired third shot.
1t is then said that he attempted to
kick nthe door and as he did so
and attempted to enter Mrs. Still,
fearing that her life was in the great
est danger, grabbed twelve guage
shot gun and fired at her husband.
This shot had telling effect, striking
Still in the left side of the face and
tearing away part of his jaw as
well as shattering his face and check.
Mrs. Still then fled from the house
to nearby school house VIII, re she
announced that. she had. killed her
husband.
attempt was made by Gable
people to get in touch with the
Sheriff's office in this city, but the
wires being down, message was sent
to Ashland and this was telephoned
to the Sheriff's office and Undcrsheriff
Murray proceeded othe scene of the
trouble. Sheriff Long, who Was away
summoning jurors, arrived ct Cable
at about the same time as Mr.. Murray
and both proceeded to the Still home.
After being shot by his wife it ap-
pears that Still endeavored to end
his misery by firing another shot in
to his stomach. The injured man
was taken to the hospital at Hayward
where it is said he still survives, al
though his wounds are considered
very serious. Mrs. Still was brought
to this city where she was held for a
day or so but was later released as
no. warrant had been sworn out
against her. 1t is doubtful if she
will ever be arrested as it is claimed
she fired in self defenseA

FERRY BOAT FOR HUDSON RIVER 70
Be BUILT BY LOCAL SHIP COMP ANY

the amount of work which the COM
pany is able to secure, promises of
which are very encouraging.
The actual signing of contract for
boat to be built in Washburn has
'dispelled even the doubts of the pes
simists as to the starting of the ship
yards in Washburn. Much of the
credit for the accomplishment of the
putting over of the company is due
w. Gum Smith and Robert Curr, as
well as John Larson, Charles Paul,
George f. Morgan, William Messeng-
er, Monroe Sprague, B. Ungrodt and
S. E. Swanson. Curr, Smith and
Messenger became connected with the
company just afrer its conception and
have remained through to see sue
cess brought to their efforts and they
are entitled to the greatest credit for
their achievement which not only
means success to themselves but much
to the city of Washburn through the
employment Of labor. They have
remained stea dfast and have been op-
timistic all through, even when things
did not look very encouraging and
too much credit cannot be given them
for their efforts.
So far as is possible with the COM
pany the shareholders will be given
the preference in work and the crew
will be added to as soon as work can
be arranged.
From this time considerable speed
will be maintained in clearing up the
yards and getting things in shape for
the buildings which are to follow. AS
soon as the ship has been laid down
in the drawing rooms and loft and the
yard is in readiness the actual con-
struction of the ship will be begun.
1t is the plan of the company to
train as much local help as is possible
in Washburn. 1t is the first big in
dustry coming to our city in some
time and the news is joyfully receiv-
ed by the business people and resi-
dents of the city
Here's wishing success and lots of
it to the new company, and may it
grow and prosper.

Judge Risjord in Circuit Court at
Ashland last Saturday gave Mayor
Peavey an dthe members of the Wash
burn City Council until the next
meeting Of the City Council in which
to start proceedings which will result
in the re-assessment Of the benefits
and privileges of the sewers laid in
The city officials were hailed before
the east part Of the city during 1918.
the court last Saturday for failure
to obey the order ofthe court in MAX
ing the re-assessment as ordered, and
after hearing the reasons as presented
by City Attorney G. F. Morris. Judge
Risjord discharged the Mayor and
members of the Council and gave
them additional time in which to
make arrangements for a re-assess-
ment. 1t was agreed that the mat
ter would be attended to.
The case is the outgrowth of the
sewer system laid in the east part of
the city during 1913 when the du Pont
company erected nearly one hundred
houses in that section. In order to
have the houses suitable for living
water mains and sewers were laid in
that section. But the war ended be-
fore the houses were complete or oc-
cupied and were then sold to- the
Marshall-Wells company of Duluth
and dismanteled and moved to Duluth,
so that the sewers as laid were Of
little benefit to that section of
the city.
An action was started by number
of the lot owners in that vicinity ask
ing that the assessment as made be
set aside and this case was tried be-
fore the Circuit Court and resulted
indulge Risjord ordering a re-assess-
ment of the benefits and privileges.
The notice of the order of the Court
was presented to the City Council in
July but the Council failed to take
action and after several notices had
been served on the Council Attorney
Macleod appealed to the Court to
have the order carried out and re-
suited in the Council members being
cited to appear to show cause why
they should not be deemed guilty of
contempt.
Judge Risjord heard the explana-
tion as presented by Attorney Morris,
representing the Mayor and Council
and gave them until the November
meeting in which to make arrange
ments for the re-assessment.
