ceeded in rescuing his wife and

AN OLD TIME PRINTER
John Seward of Indiana
Spent Over Forty Years in
the Newspaper Game
Visiting Here.

After spending over forty years
in the newspaper game, and still
be able to pass the buck" to the
average man in the game, John
Seward, father of David Seward,
has retired from his lifelong
work and taken up the more
gentlemanly pursuit of farming
in the HOOsier state.
In Cana City, Iowa, Mr.. Seward
published a newspaper for years,
later taking up work at Des
MoineS, which he followed until
about ten or twelve years ago.
BY the purchase of a farm near
Angola, Indiana, he has severed
his connection with the ups and
dowEs of a newspaper and prin-
ter's life.
His tales of the early day hard
ships of the newspaper game
when everything was practically
done on a guess-work basis, is
really interesting. And TO ope-
rate and publish a newspaper in
those days was some real hard
ship, especially in the small towns.
But, with all the hardships he
has passed through, Mr.. Seward
must still hunt up a print shop
and once more get the smell of
ink and hear the hum of the ma
chinery. Says the advent of the
type-setting machine has in some
manner taken away the real old
time pleasures and noises of the
early-day news foundry.
Mr.. Seward will spend the sum
mer and winter at the home of
his son on the Deerskin river
northeast of town, for he has
found the state TO be 10 his lik-
ing. He is II years young.

BOUND OVER IN COURT
Operators in Mining Stock
Held in Jail, Account of
Not Having Permits.

Judge Higgins. in court last
Friday bound 5. NJ. Minor of
Minneapolis and j. NJ. Swanson of
Lacrosse, over to the next term
Of circuit court, they being
charged with disposing of bonds
without authorization from either
the company or state. Not having
the ready wherewithal, both are
now in the county Jail.
Minor and Swanson came TO
Eagle River several days ago and
disposed of what is said To be
California mining stock. One
Eagle River party gave two notes
Of $1,000 in payment for shares,
which, according TO report, were
to have brought her in forty per-
cent on the investment. Several
Others who were on the verge of
buying this stock, were stopped
before their money had been paid
over.
Both Minor and Swanson have
stated that their company is good
and that they have the right to
sell stock legally in the state.
Other information is that they
are wrong in that respect.
The one best bet for the pur-
chaser of stock of this kind is
To leave it alone. or else do some
shrewd investigating before buy
ing. Another thing, anything
offered that will bring such a big
profit. never has to be peddled as
was this or any other stock.

Heat registrations in this north

weeks. and there seems to be no
relief in sight. according to the
weather bureau. 1t has been over

times. and this is unusually hot
for the lake region. Continued
dry weather has caused a shorten

been experienced in this section

GIPSIES PINCH CASH
Eagle River Parties Touched
BY Light Fingered Females
Last Friday.

After being chased several
mics in an automobile, Traffic
Officer Bennett captured a rowing
band of gipsies near the dam last
Friday and compelled them to re-
turn ten dollars which one of
the females of that dusky crowd
had stolen from Mrs. Maurice
Hoffman.
The Romany crowd had a very
neat and attractive caravan of
high-priced cars and speed wagons,
travelling in up-to-date style e.
They had camped north of Rum
meles Wednesday night, passing
through Conover early in the
morning. Upon their arrival here
they proceeded to ply their arts
in fortune telling and purse lift
ing. From Mrs. Hoffman they
secured a $40 bill from her pocket.
They left soon after following
Highway 10 toward the dam.
When approached by the officer
they passed over the money very
quickly.
On their way to the dam, they
also secured a ten dollar bill from
Chris Rasmussen, but were COM
PEELED to give it up Immediately.
