REBERsBURG FRAGMENTS.

Oar Supervisors, NeSsrs. Jesse
Long and VIM. Bair, were doing L
vast amount Of work on our loads
during last week. Their motto
seems to he "Lo,C tao end CrCfy nlua
TO ,cork o,a his tar." They seem to
have 40 intention TO lay Il high tax
and then collect it and handle the
money. They think 1t more eco
nomi"al to let every taxpayer him
self handle his money, if he has any,
and all work on the road. | think
this IS moving in the right direction.
Let this example be initiated 10y 9TH
ers, and we shall soon SET better
times.
Lately young man from Eeigh-
boring township, was brought be-
fore Esquire German, and took his
primary lesson in the art of taking
an introduction to lady, on the
way home from church. His next
lesson he may take before Judge
Orvis and his associates.

JUNEAU, June l1th, !

JUNEAU, June 18th, 1878.
The County Board at its meeting last
week, accepted the report of the 1nvestig
ting Committee which found a defalcation
of $40, 500 against o. W. Traynor, County
Treasurer. resolution was adopted de-
claring the Office vacant, and Carl Hauf, Of
Horizon, was appointed County Treasurer
for the unexpired term. subsequently a
criminal complaint was made against Mr.,
Trayror, for ENLIGHTENMENT, and his examin-
alton is now taking place before Justice
Bertrsm. While he probably will be bound
over to the Circuit Court, grave doubts are
expressed as to the power Of that Court to
hold him, owing to some decisions of the
Supreme Court, which is interpreted as be-
ing in his favor. While there at present
appears no excuse for Mr.. Traynor, or no
possibility for him to explain the matter sat
isfactorily so as to remove the strong suspc-
cions from the minds of the people, the
chief and first cause Of the possibility of
such defalcation lies in the fact that the
men who are elected as members OF the
County Board are not of such class that
possess the ability to examine into the af-
fairs of the county with any degree of cor
rectness.
The special village election yesterday re-
suited in vote of q to 10 in favor Of the
purchase of ere engine and implements;
only about half vote was pollsd.
The objections raised to the change in the
basement of the new Court House, only re-
suited in good deal of talk at the meeting
of the Board.
The excurs ion TO the Dels from Horizon
Minnesota Junction and Beaver Dam, which
WAS to have taken place on Wednesday, has
been indefinitely postponed, owing to tn e
destruction by fire of the steamer "DeH

In 1870 he was elected Clerk of the Jeffer-
son County Board of Supervisors snd re-
elected in 1872, his second term expiring

commodating and competent officer. About

The Shyiocks Defeated.

The attempt of the Shylocks owning or
controlling city bonds to secure hough the
revision of the statutes some advantage over
the localities interested was unsuccessful.
agreed upon and reported, would have been
found troublesome; in fact confscation of
property would have followed its enforce
ment in many instances. 1t was so mani
testify unfair and outrageous that on pre-
sentation of the whole case to the legisla-
tive committee having the revision in
charge, the section alluded to was amended,
SO that while it does not take from the bond
holders any of their rights, it coufers upon
them no additional privileges, and leaves
the status of all parties precisely as it orig
nally stood. To this their should be no OBJ
lection, but it is understood to be quite un-
satisfactory to Mr.. Mariner and others, who
hoped by little sharp practice to get
through the revision what they have never
been able to obtain 10y other means.
An effort was also mace TO secure the
adoption of provision that in cases W here
service cannot be had upon the officers of
corporations, the same may be made by
publication. The committee on revision,
however, by vote Of TO 3 decided against
it and the proposition fell through. Wat
ertown had an especial interest in the ques-
tons named, and is to be congratulated on
the favorable result finally reached.

Monday afternoon proved inauspicious III
the weather line for the entertainment oil
the Turner Society at the park but not
withstanding the showers of rain there Wa.
a good attendance. In the evening the
theatrical performance and tableaux pre-
sented in Turner Hall were witnessed by a
large audience. The players rendered
their parts well and the tableaux represen-
ting ancient historical scenes were the hn-
est ever seen here calling forth loud APP
plause. The entire proceeds OF the afternoon
and evening entertainments realized to the
Turner Society handsome sum to assist in
defraying the work they have on hand OF

1shphOrding's EXamin ion.

Friday last was another exciting day in
connection with the Weber highway rob-
berry. The morning freight train from
Jefferson. brought to town Jacob Wondering
alias William Keiser, "Dr." F. Ishphording
and Henry Recko IN charge of Sheriff New
ton, accompanied by prosecuting attorney
Rogers. Friday was the day appon ted for
the examination Of doctor" Ishphording
for his alleged connection with the robbery
May, and this explains the influx of motor
ious characters into our midst. Mr. Har-
low Pease appeared in behalf Of Ishphording
and change of venue was taken removing
the case from before Justice Ambrose to
Justice Arnold. The Office of Justice Ar.
mold was far too small to contain the num-
bers W no would liked to have heard the
testimony. Such was the interest mani
tested in the case that the largest
hall in the city could easily have been filled
by an audience eager to be present at the
examination. Evidence was given by
Christian Weber, the victim of the robbery
detailing the affair in every particular and
relating the story of the outrage committed
upon him in a manner that created sym.
pathy and aroused intense excitement dur
ing the recital. Chief of Police Kennedy
of Milwaukee, was PLACED on the witness
stand testifying in relation to the arrest il
Milwaukee of Wondering and the recovery
of the large sum of money from him
Marshal Kehr and Deputy Reichert were
also sworn as to their knowledge Of th'
Weber robbery AID the arrest of the sup
posed perpetrators. Wondering cam,
from Jail here with the intention OF bein,
sworn, but when his testimony was asked
for he declined to give any thinking hi
evidence might have weight against himsel
on his trial. Recko was not sked to testi
| fy. Justice Arnold bound over the prisone
| Ishpherd riding to the next term of the Circuit
court On charge of being accessory to tn
| robbery fixing the bail for his appearance
at 81, 500 in default of which Ishphordine
was remanded to Jail.
