interview published in the Wallace
Press-Times Mining Review in refer

In a mineral way he says:
1.-THE Bunker Hill and Sullivan has
taken over a group Of claims In the
Deadwood district, which will have
some effect on the whole fthe Cen
trail part of the state. The Sea Foam
and Sheep Mountain districts, some
distance to the north of Deadwood
have several promising prospects, but
like most Of the mining In the CEN
trail part of the state, the owners OF
these locations have received little
or no financial assistance from the
outside. Many of these locations
have lain almost dormant since their
discovery. which in some cases dates
back to the sos.
During the early days of mining,
when silver was worth $12s per
ounce, ore from some of these old
discoveries was packed to the smell
ter at Ketehum, returning a small
margin Of profit. When silver was
demonatized. miners quit. and since
that date the activity has been limi-

The visiting crew of the fair sex was

the home squad, by a score of 27 to

The team work of both home teams
was mechanical feature from start
to finish. Especially so with the Ma
rooms, which is clearly show by the
score. The plays used by Macs"
squad worked quite successfully, and
the home goal was kept hot by the
steady bombardment of scoring shots
from the hands of the local quintet.
Passing was superior, on the Ma
aggregation. The team work and
defense was also unsurpassed by the
visiting boys. A solid defense was
automatically thrown across the floor
whenever the Mackay squad receiv-
ed control of the ball, and many I'm
successful attempts for the goal was
made by long shots. but most of
them fell short and bounded out Of
bounds, giving the Maroons their gol-

their hoop.
A record crowd was in attendance,
despite the fact that rumors had
been spread concerning the out
break of scarlet fever in Mackay.
We are glad to see the continuation
of enthusiasm and support for the To-
cal squad, and hope it still exists
throughout the conference games

THE COUNTRY DOCTOR

Thirty degrees below zero. A gale
blowing at midnight crescendo as it
rides the swirling drifts. Man nor
beast will willingly contest for the
right of way with the elements this
right.
The light in the village doctors
home has just been extinguished. Ex
hausted from struggle against the
storm the doctor has just retired,
breathing prayer for a mite of rest.
The telephone on the little stand at
the head of the bed rings and the
doctor YEARLY reaches for it.
Illness and misfortune have befall-
en- John Hawkins wife who lives out
near the Pine Hill camp. 1t is 16 or
II miles as the doctor must travel,
over and through drifts that ha
clogged the rough winding loggi. g
roads that man has hewn as he !c-
molished the great forests.
Will the doctor make the attempt :?
There is never a question of it. Odt
of the warm bed, into his furs and
out to the stable to harness a weary
team to start another battle with the
elements that John Hawkins wife
may live and care for home aud chill
dren.
Heroism? Romance? MI bit Of
it. Just an incident in on of many
bad winter days for any one of a
thousand country doctors in 2
frozen north country. Wisconsin is
full of such doctors and such incl
dents during the winter time, all the
way from Superior to Marinette aid
from Manitowoc to Lacrosse, in the
hundreds of little logging towns
which have sprung up, fiorished
settled into decay as the hills:des be-
came denuded and the loggers pushed
onward. The doctors have maintain
ed their offices and their homes wkile
their patients have gradually drawn
away from them.
Some day master of words will
appear to preserve in epic form the
heroic figure of the country doctor.
And the country doctor viii shake
his head, chuckle perhaps, and throw
the thing in the waste basket For
the country doctor doesn't think OF
the hardships he undergoes out where
many of the comforts of civilization
are merely subjects of conversation.
