chance to demonstrate how useful
a good department can be during
the past few days. The men were
called out on wednesday night to
assist in fighting the flames which
did so much damage at Lone Rock.
At noon on Thursday the de-

Kaun home but the fire was ex-
tinguished before the Loganville
organization arrived.
At eleven-thirty Thursday night,
the home of Tom Mears in White

Mears family was moving from the
house and fortunately part of the
furniture had been taken out but
what remained was destroyed and
the house was practically burned

Ore Shipments
Soon to Cease

Some time ago the shipment Of
$4,000 tons of iron ore was begun
at the Cahoon mine south Of town
The task of getting the ore on the
cars has been about completed. and
then operations will. cease. Not
much ore viii be left and it is
doubtful if any more will be
brought from the mine or any more
taken from the dump.
The land on which the mine is
located was sold by Wilbur Ca
hoon to w. H. Bonner for the min
ing company on January "a, 1911,
almost Is years ago The mine was
opened, many tons of ore removed
and during the war the mine was
closed. Water occupies the space
where the ore was removed and
it is doubtful if this will ever be
pumped out.
Several millions have been spent
byF the mining companies in the
Baraboo range and but a fraction
has been recovered in the way of
ore sold. D. ~
The amountf land Sold by Mr.,
Cahoon to the Iron company was a
fraction less than twenty acres.
