Impressive Exercises by Hie Bar of the Thirteenth Circuit. The bar of the Thirteenth Judicial circuit convened at Juneau, last Wednesday afternoon, and held services in memory of the late judge of the circuit, Hon. A. Scott Sloan. The attendance was large and the exercises appropriate.

Baskets and bouquets of roses and carnations surrounded the desk. The court room was filled by friends of the deceased. Promptly at 1 the members of the bar, preceded by Judge Warham Parks, the successor of Judge Sloan, and Hon. H. W.

Lander, chairman of the Dodge County Bar association, marched into the bar and occupied seats on the left, while the relatives of Judge Sloan and the wives of the members of the bar were seated on the right. Judge Parks made a short announcement of the exercises to be held, after which H. W. Lander, of Beaver Dam, made the opening address. The following resolutions were then adopted: The Hon.

A. Scott Sloan, judge of the udicial circuit of the state of Wisconsin, departed this life, at the city of Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, on the Bth day of April, 1b95. Judge Sloan was bora at Morrisville, in Mauison county, N. on the 12th day of June, 1820. He received his education in the common schools and in the Morrisville academy.

He commenced the study of law when about eighteen and was admitted to practice in the supreme court of the state ot New York in L-42; he then was clerk of the court for three years and also served as register of deeds. He pi-acticed law in the state of New York for about seven years. He married Miss Angelina M. Dodge in 1841, and seven children were born to who died June 24, lbti4. from a disease contracted in tue army, Florence the wife of J.

D. Durand, Harry a lawyer of West Superior, Minette the wife of Edward Dewey, Seward, Kathryn and Ledyard C. His wife died June 3, 1893. Judge Sloan came to Wisconsin in 1854, located.at Reaver Dam, and entered upon the practice of law with Hon H. W.

Lander, under the name of Sloan A Lander. He was elected to the assembly in 1867; he was elected mayor ot the city of Beaver Dam in 1857, again in 1858, and again in 1879. He was appointed judge of tbo old Third Judicial circuit in 1068, upou the resignation of Judge Larabee, and held that position for about ten months. He was elected to congress in 186 J.

Such is a brief outline of a long, busy and well spent life. In the course of nature a well-rounded life, rich in those achievements which distinguish one from his fellows, has reached its close; the wise and just judge, the distinguished citizen, the loved and loving father, with every earthly obligation fulfilled, has laid down to his last sleep. The death of Judge Sloan has caused general grief; in the community in which he has jo Jong lived and where he was so well known, and especially Las It caused deep grief among the bar of the Thirteenth Judicial circuit, who bad known him so long and esteemed him so highly as a pleasant companion, a valued friend, and as an honest, learned judge. And desiring that the feelings and sentiments of the bar may be preserved upon the records of the court, therefore it is Resolved, By the bar of the Thirteenth Judicial circuit, that we, the members ot the bar -of such circuit, unite with all those who honored and loved him, in deploring the loss which the public and bis nearer friends have sustained in Hon. A.

Scott Sloan. That we recognize in the example of his life, as a judge, that broad equity which harmonizes rather then declares temporal rights, and in his priyate life that purity which leaves as a man no stain. Resolved, That a copy of tho foregoing be spread upon the minutes of the court, and an engrossed copy be sent to the family of deceased. Informal remarks were made by Hon. E.

P. Smith, a former member of the bar of Dodge county, now of George W. Sloan, of Juneau; Patrick of West Bend, and T. W. Parkinson, of -Judge Parks closed the program by responding to the eloquent addresses which had been made with a few well chosen and appropriate remarks, and ordered the resolutions and addresses entered upon the records, and to be printed in pamhplet form for distribution.

Alfred Farlow, one of the earliest settlers of this county, died at his home in Burnett on Friday last, aged 73 years. First coming to this county in 1845 he entered land in the town of Burnett and gradually extended his possessions until he became the owner of some 300 acres of land, one of the best farms in the county. For some years past he had been troubled with a cancer in the face, which, though believed to have been eradicated, finally found lodgment in his throat and caused death for want of nourishment. He enjoyed in the highest degree the esteem and respect of all his neighbors. The contemplated removal of Downer college at Fox Lake to Milwaukee is looked upon with a great deal of regret by the people of Fox Lake and Dodge county generally.

The utility of the removal is not very clear to the ordinary mind and is considered as another attempt on the part of Milwaukee to absorb all that is useful in the state. The removal will be a severe blow to Fox Lake. The contract for the erection of a standpipe and reservoir and laying of water mains in the city has been awarded to Fairbanks, Morse of Chicago, for the sum ol $5,559 90, hut the original specifications have been materially modified and the extent of territory lor laying of pipes and placing of hydrants somewhat restricted. It is expected that work will he commenced in a couple weeks. Mrs.

Maria Vellum, an early resident of this community, died at her residence in Mankato, last Monday aged 89 years. The body was brought here for burial on Thursday last. With her husband, who died here twentytwo years ago, she settled on a farm east of this city early the The memorial services over the late Judge Sloan held at the court house last Wednesday were very impressive and largely attended, as by members of the bar of the district as by the public. The eulogies delivered were all exceptionally fine. W.

As to Fire Wardens.

The same section provides for a fine of $lO for tearing down or defacing any notice posted by fire wardens. Section 3 provides for the imprisonment or fine, or both, of any person who shall build a fire on land not owned or contracted by 7 him, and who leaves the immediate vicinity of the fire before totally extinguishing the same, and provides that during the months of July, August, September and October of each year that no person (except hunters, trappers, fishers, surveyors, or others that camp out) shall set fires on any lands without obtaining a permit from a fire warden of the town in which the land lies.

Section 4 provides a fine or imprisonment for any person camping out who shall leave the immediate vicinity of the camp fire without totally extinguishing the fire.

Indiana contributed her thousands of brave soldiers to the Avar, and no state bears a better record in that respect than it does. In literature it is rapidly acquiring an enviable place. In war and literature Solomon Yewell, well known as a writer as has won an honorable position. During the late war he was a member of Cos. 2d.

N. Y. Cavalry and of the 13th Indiana Infantry Volunteers. Regarding an important circumstance he writes as follows: of us old veterans here are using Dr. Restorative Nervine, Heart Cure and Nerve and Liver Rills, all of them giving splendid satisfaction.

In fact, we have never used remedies that compare with them. Of the Pills we must say they are the best combination of the qualities required In a preparation of their nature we nave ever known. We have none but words of praise for them. They are the outgrowth of a now principle in medicine, and tone up the system wonderfully. We say to all, try these Yewell, Marion, Dec.
