Obituary
ARTHUR HINKLEY CLARKE.

ARTHUR HINkLEY CLARKE.
News was received by wire from Bal
timore, Md, last Monday that Arthur
Clarke had passed away at the home of
his brother-in-law, E. v. Baugh, living
in that city. 1t was sad news to the
many friends that Mr.. Clarke and his
family have in Edgerton. The hope
had been entertained that he might be
restored to health and be able to re-
turn to his work in the community
where he has always lived and where
he was so we'll thought of by every
body. But the illness from which he
suffered would not yield to the best of
medical aid, and the constant care
given him by his wife, who has been
with him also in the east during the
last four months of his quest for health.
Arthur Hinkley Clarke was born in
Edgerton, August 3, 1871, the son of
Mr.. and Mrs. w. III. Clarke. His
father died last fall, but his aged
mother is still living. He was edu-
Gated in the public schools of Edgerton.
AS young man he entered the service
of w. II. Child, tobacco merchant, as
his bookkeeper, and remained in this
position number of years. During
the last twenty years he has been of
fetal Inspector for F. G. Linde, Hamil-
ton & Co., tobacco inspectors, and his
duties put him in touch with large
number of men engaged in the handling
of tobacco in Wisconsin. He also
served the city of Edgerton during the
past four years as assessor, position
that his father before him filled for so
long term of years. On June 10,
1891, he married Miss Catherine Croft.
To this union were born James, mar
ried and living in Rockford, ILL.,; Doris,
married to D. Butts and living in In
dianapolis, Ind; Norman, who was
member of the A. E. F. in France and
died of wounds received in the battle
of Juvigne; Wayne, the youngest,
making his home with his parents in
Edgerton. These together with his
wife, his brother Theodore, who with
his family recently moved to Indianap
oils, his sister, Mrs. VIM. Naset, and
her family of Sparta, and his aged
mother are the nearest of kin surviv-
ing him and mourning their loss.
Mr.. Clarke and his family were men,
bers of the M. E. church, and Mr..
Clarke was a member of the local
chapter of Masons. He died Monday
morning, Sept. Is, and his wife and
Mr.. and Mrs. E. V. Baugh brought the
body to Edgerton for burial. They ar
rived Wednesday evening. His son
James and his wife came to the Clarke
home Tuesday. The funeral was held
on Thursday, from the home at 200
and from the M. E. church at 2:30, the
ceremonies being conducted by the
,Masons, Rev. Kramer officiating min
lister. The remains were laid to rest
in the family lot of the Fassett ceme-
terry. All near relatives came to be
present at the funeral.

A Friendly Word to Reporter Sub
scribers.

The subscription price of The Re-
porter has not been boosted. It is still
$3.50 year, in spite of the fact that
print paper is more than three times as
high as two years ago. The subscrib-
ers will understand that if the present
subscription rate is to continue, they
must send in their $3.50 for the paper
when due. The date when your SUBJ
scription ran out, or runs out, is print
ed on the little yellow label. Look at
it today. A money order or your per-
sonal check will do the business. But
do it now.

Gard of Thanks

To neighbors and friends who so
kindly assisted us during the illness of

"A number of autos from Edgerton
carried people to Evansville last Friday
to witness the horse races and the ball
game between the GAINESVILLE Samsons
and the Beloit Fairbanks Morse. The
track was rough and soft after the
rains Thursday and in consequence no
records were established. That the
horse recently sold by Mr.. Thos. West
lake to Mr.. Wentworth got first money
pleased the Edgerton bunch. The ball
game came to an abrupt close in the
sixth inning, Beloit FORGETTING the game
to GAINESVILLE on account of disputed
decision.
-Jens A. Jensen, who ten years ago
moved to Irvington, Ala, is spending a
week visiting old friends in and near
Edgerton. He and his two sons, Jens
and Edwin, own an orange and pecan
plantation down there, and they are
doing well. Mr. Jensen lost his wife
several years ago. One of his sons
lives in GAINESVILLE, and he has a daugh-
ter who is married and lives at Kasota,
Mimi. he has already been to see her.
One of his neighbors out there is John
Hansen, brother of Christ and o. G.
Hansen. Mr.. Jensen looks very we'll.
and is pleased with the country down
there.

Montreal Is Now a Great Convention City;
his Quaint Town Profits From Prohibition
Unprecedented Crowds From the
States Have Filled Hotels Of
Quebec Metropolis

THAT Montreal Is beneftimq
enormously through prohibi-
ton ia the United States is
she outstanding fact o5ser0ed by any
visitor to the Canadian city.
When one of the conventions of
American delegates is IN progress
which seems to be daily-it is almost
as difficult to find steetage scay on
the Sidewalks IN that city between
sessions as at Broodavoy and Fortu
second Street aohen the human tide
is at food. From Mount Royal the
riew is decidedly different from that
OF the days of the courageous Car
tier
IN the vicinity of the big hotels
which care for the tourists haze
sprung up a be,Oilde,-ing number of
rooming and boarding houses to
catch the travel oUerfow. The
ropidity with aohich these places haze
come into existence is a reminder of
boom days IN the Western toaDns, or
in Northeast Canada, vhen the bio
,sheat prorinces acre getting into
their stride.
A conservative estimate, eohich
most observers acould say qoas too
loV, is that acithin a feao aceeks after
the summer travel began $1,000, 900
had been spent IN Montreal By Amer
icans taking their vacations or hold
ing their gatherings there, the pre-
diction being that by the time the
season closed the total acould easilu
reach sS,00o,0oo.
Foar big conventions of Ameri-
cans, including that of the American
Federation of Labor, had already
been held there, aud a0hem the facts
for this article aoere prepared the
American College of Surgeons acas
conducting roon,ing house cunvass
for the care Of its delegates. A
brisk trade had sprung up in all
kinds of liquors, and trauelers neg
Letting to make reservations long in
aduance aUere experiencing much
difficulty finding accommodations at
any of the hotels.
Here is an article on conditions IN
Montreal ,critten By the Montreal
representative of The New York
Tribune:
New-York tribune., 1920-08-29

the sailors, who had not found their
land legs, had to be carried down on
the backs of Indians. Sometimes.
after civic luncheon, guests have
felt the same way.
The famous Lachine Rapids are
distant only five or six miles from
Montreal, and shooting the rapids"
is favorite diversion, which has had
to be curtailed this summer, as, ow-
ing to the low water, only vessels of
light draft can come through safely.
and consequently several sailings
have been cancelled. The trip to
Quebec by water is sometimes added
to convention program, and occa-
sionally delegates stay over and try
the muskallonge fishing at Ste. Anne
de Bellevue, the village made famous
in Tom Moore's song of the lumber
man, "Row, Brothers, Row." Any
one can see for himself that "the
stream runs fast"
The Prohibition Situation
What exactly is the liquor stu
alton in Montreal? Does prohibition
prohibit, and to what extent? This
is one Of the first inquiries made BY
New-York tribune., 1920-08-29
N1OTRE DAME CATHEDRAL in Montreal, point of IN
" terest yisited BY most of the tourists

the privilege of conveying visitors to
the summit, where there is an
imposing stone lookout from which
the winding St. Lawrence and it's
islands and the verdure-clad city
can be viewed.
1t is usual with conventions to
arrange a luncheon in the open air
at this lookout, and visiting bodies of
distinction are entertained there by
the city, as was the case with the
Empire Press Conference, which was
here recently.
The view from the mountain is ex-
actly the same as that on which
Jacques Cartier gazed hundreds of
years ago, except that in the inter
val large city has grown up and
the st. Lawrence River has become
the highway of a great sea-borne
commerce. 1t is recorded Of Cartier
that he took his crew with him, and
New-York tribune., 1920-08-29

sition he may also reflect that the
presence of so many people wearing
gold-lettered badges of white, orange
or scarlet silk betokens the leaving
in this city of many good American
dollars.
The four large conventions of the
year, the American Federation of
Labor, American Waterworks En-
gineers, Boot and Shoe Retailers,
and Travellers and Manufacturers,
and the Forthcoming gathering of
the American College of Sur
geons it is estimated will have
brought to the city over 5000 Wis
itors. Smaller conventions and fly-
ing visits by associations bound to
other cities, but which made a de-
tour in order to investigate the truth
of certain rumors about Montreal,
probably doubled that number.
Weekend parties from Boston, New
York and elsewhere are a regular
feature, and the ordinary tourist
traffic by train and automobile has
swollen to unparalleled proportions.
More Than a Million Dollars
A civic authority estimates that
delegates to conventions or other
meetings in Montreal this summer
will spend total of not less than
10000 days at $40 day, this figure
being calculated as the minimum to
include hotel and souvenir purchases
of the average visitor. At that rate
conventions alone have brought Mon
treal this summer over a million
dollars, and as the hotels have been
filled all summer, and many supple
mentary rooming places also taxed
to capacity it can easily be seen that
Americans are doing something to
restore the exchange balance, and
Before the season is over will prob
ably have left in Montreal another
couple of millions.
Nothing is more significant of the
popularity the city has attained with
tourists than the constant procession
of sightseeing autos. Even last
year the sightseeing auto was only
New-York tribune., 1920-08-29

American College Of Surgeons has
run a regular daily advertisement
asking for the addresses of private
families willing to provide rooms,
and it is understood they have re-
ceived very satisfactory responses.
In the streets running off Dominion
Square, on which stands the Wind
sor Hotel, noted as convention head
quarters, there has sprung up crop
of high-class rooming houses which
content themselves with the overflow
from the big hotels. While all may
not be of equal quality, the average
is high, and may be gauged from the
remark of Boston traveller who de-
scribed the house he stayed at as
"like New England home"
The Windsor Hotel, we'll known
commercial house, has been chosen
as headquarters for all the conven-
tions which have come to Montreal,
and "Room 4" on the ground floor
has become famous all over the con-
tinent as the convention office. 1t is
practically never unoccupied, and
sometimes two convention bodies have
been clamoring for it at once. When
a convention is in progress the Wis
itor to the Windsor Hotel has no diff
ficulty in determining that fact. The
huge rotunda in the interval between
dinner and the theater is jammed
with delegates sporting their decora-
tions. and the combined babel Of
New-York tribune., 1920-08-29

the jolly good fellows of the United
States began to plan conventions.
Speeches Are Dry Stuff.
A convention usually has a uro-
gram, included in which is the trans
action of business and the reading
OF many papers. That is dry work
and was only made bearable in the
past by the great thirst it created and
the pleasure of quenching it. Con-
vention delegates can scarcely be
convinced that a genuine convention
thirst can be slaked with water or
moxle or coca-cola, and the conven-
ton secretary who really knows the
game always begins his preparations
with an investigation into the facili-
ties for supplying refreshments.
After that he goes into the question
OF hotel accommodation and the
drawing up Of a program.
The average Montrealer is so ac-
customed to seeing people going
around beribboned like the prize
winner at poultry show that he
seldom stops even to inquire what is
doing. He says to himself "Conven-
tion," assumes it is from "the States"
and kind of wishes he was one of the
bunch. If he is of practical dispo-
