AT the Bottom
COUNTY OFFICERS ARE
RENOMINATED--NEITZEL
Is NAMED FOR SHERIFF
|. L. Lenrott Probably Named By
a Close Margin-:-Esch Also Close
In Race

Onaccount of the length of the tic
ket and large number of votes, re-
turns come in slowly. Judging by the
figures at hand John G Blaine La Fol-
lette candidate, and Senator Roy P.
Wilcox appear to be running neck and
neck for the governorship. Merlin
Hull received many votes in certain
quarters and may be third on the list.
Col. S. E. Seaman is close, also E. F.
Dithmar. Tittemore will be at the bot
tom. 1t may require the official count
to decided who is nominated for gov
'ernOr.
For United States senator it looks
as if /. l.. Lenroot had been nomina-
ted by close margin over James
Thompson, the non-partisan league
La Toilette candidate. With returns
from 247 precincts completed in Mil
waukee this morning Lenroot was
leading with 1883: Thompson, 49,
O75; McHenry, 2,705.
For the minor state offices on the
incomplete returns at the hour Of
going to press Hall appeared to be
far in the lead for secretary of state
with Cobban second. For state treas
urer the race is between Levitan and
Johnson with Levitan apparently well
in the head and almost sure of nomi-
nation. Morgan is probably nominal
ed for attorney general over Kannb-
berg by safe majority.
County Ticket Named
All of the present county officers
except sheriff have been re-nominat-
ed. Otto J. Riggert in opposition to
Frank A. Cooper for county clerk and
William A Kruger against Carl M.
Du Bots polled but few votes. Edward
M. Doll for county treasurer, Herman
Neitzel for sheriff had no opposition
in the running, Mike Griffin receiv-
ing scattering votes. Frank B. Moss

DUxBURY HAS ALDEN HOUSE
Massachusetts Town Proud Of Pie
torIc Abode That Dates Back
to the Year 1858.

One Of the most important OF the
old-time houses that are associated
with the Pilgrims Of the Maytlower Is
the Alden house at Duxbury. Mass,
lately acquired by the Alden kindred
of America. - !
The Aldens. John and Priscilla. with
seven others Of the Mayfiower Pill
grims, went from Plymouth to. settle in
Duxbury in 1927, seven years after the
landing Of the Mayflower and three
years before the founding of Boston.
They built a house that stood on
knoll not far away from the existing
one, and there their children were
born.
The present house was built by the
eldest son, Jonathan, in 1853, and has
the remarkable record Of having been
in the possession Of Aldens from that
day to this.
A notable feature of the house is the
existence of certain secret passages
and hidden stairs whose location
would never be suspected The house
dates back to the days Of witchcraft
and Indian wars; and Notwithstanding
the new freedom brought by. the Pill
grims, there was nQ."saying when op-
portunities for concealment and es-
cape might come in handy.

The story of these Is interesting.
During the early days Of the war. when

driving the British back to the. Suez
canal, filling up the canal with the
sands Of the desert, and walking over
into the new Promised Land. and thus
delivering" Egypt from the yoke OF
tyranny. To facilitate this project,
the Germans sent into this country

Japan's Famous Mountain.

Full IS 1896 feet in height. and
only 200 years years ago was an active
volcano. There are still signs Of fire
In the jets Of steam that squirt from
parts of the cone though one may now
descend the crater with safety. All
about the base are great boiling
springs, hot enough to cook an egg In
minute. These are known as
Ojigoku, or Great He'll" Whether
the idea was taken from the Bible
or not Is not known. But Buddhism
has plenty Of hell Of its own. Some
100000 pilgrims ascend the cone ev-
cry year; and this year, being spe-
cial one in sixty, according to the Jap
anese calendar. the number was much
greater than usual.
