amusing affair mot 80, however, to
a certain party from this enlighten-

party of excursionists. They
started for the hills, nimrod like,
in search of sage hens, and after
having travelled some six miles,
discovered that they had left their
powder behind, and being exem-
plary youths of the larger growth,
started one of their party back for
that article SO necessary to make q
gun 60 off, and kill the game they
were in pursuit of-brave nimrods.
Next in order comes the much
talked-of race at the Sutro Race
Track, between the bay mare Coal
Burner, and the bay horse from the
Big Bend Of the Carson, named
Phelix O'Brien; Coal Burner win

declared winner of the race and

be ready to commence as receiver of the
Company, in Bankruptcy to collect the
full amount principal and interest of the
premium notes given 10 the company. The
Times then adds: We happen TO know bv
experience that these notes are colleclable.
1t is sihard lines for man to paw tor
what be never has had, and never can re
ceive; but it is far better to; pay these notes
here in Waupun, when notified to do IT,,
than TO have them sued in Milwaukee, be-
fore United States Circuit Court, and
have to go into Milwaukee to settle them,
and find that the costs in Court are double
in each ease what the original amount of
the note was There is no lodging the
payment if there is power in the U. S.
Court to compel it.

claimed by gross neglect Of the Railroad
Company, for many hours in OBTAINING i'm

was ended Friday with verdict of $500
for the plaintiff, the jury taking but brief
time to deliberate. We hear talk of ap
pealing the case to the Supreme Court, but
itseems to US that it would be better for
the company to make the Test of a bad

cured.-Madison Journal, Nov 10th.

ed the Frank E. Aiken's Two Orphans
Combination last Tuesday evening. The
play of the Two Orphans was presented
in faultless manner, all the actors per-
forming their parts to perfection. Moth
ing ever seen in Watertown in the theatre
cal line gave such complete satisfaction.
The crowded condition of the house testi-
fed to the ability of Watertown to pat
ronize a first class entertainment. We
hope to see Mr. Aiken with his combin-

Editor Republican,
1t is source of pride to the friends of
Hon. W. S. Greene to see the way in which
his old political enemies come to his de-
fence in the malignant attack of that 'sBird
of ill-omen" OF the Jefferson Banne mot
that any defense is necessary in Mr.. Greene's 5
case, for all who know him, know him to
be hlgh-minded, truthful, honorable gen.
tleman, but that this fact is recognized by
those Of an opposite political faith. There
is perhaps no more consistent democrat in
Jefferson county than Mr., Greene, but with
him love for the commonwealth comes 6rst
then party good All that troubles the
yulture of the Banner is that bis wings have
