Our amusement loving citizens will
have genuine treat presented to them
by the appearance next Friday evening,
at Turner Hall, of Sprague's Georgia Min
strels, claimed to have no superiors in their
line of business. Wherever this troupe
have appeared they leave favorable i'm
preston of their ability and the excel
lence of their performance.
The following from The Scranton, Pa.
Republican, of March Sth, 1878, shows
what may be expected from the Georgias:
This company of indisputable Ethiopi-
ans entertained good audience at the
Academy of Music last evening, and did
it WE'LL some portions Of the programme
having been rendered in so artistic a
manner as to compel the applause of the
best critics Of minstrelys. Notably among
the finer musical selections of the even
ing were those of an instrumental charac-
ter our Academy goers having seldom
listened to better. 'The monster con-
cert closing the first part, though bur
lesque we'll put on and conducted, was
studded with gems of Instrumentation
1t was superior to any burlesque upon
the cullen concert business we have
seen here. 1t was vociferously applaud
ed and encored, as were many of the first
part pieces The dancing of Delaney and
Buck finds few equals anywhere, whether
in the more exact clog or extravagant
plantation order The comedians of the
troupe are all good, each excelling in his
speciality A more finished Ethiopian
sketch than that by Warwick and Lay
ton, in which an inimitable laughing
song was given, seldom appears upon the
boards of minstrelsy. The entertainment
taken as a whole, was decidedly merit
orious one, and has not been overrated.
We commend the company to all where
they may 60, as right jolly evening,
without single offensive word or act to
mar it, may be anticipated.

Bold Robbery

Some time last Saturday night Sun
day morning before daylight the barn of
DIR. NJ. n Barber in the Fifth ward was
entered and from it was stolen one of his
most valuable horses, one open buggy,
considerably worn, two sets of single har-
nesses in good condition and two horse
blankets. The property was not missed
until ten o'clock Sunday forenoon. The
man having charge Of the doctors horses
when he fed them Sunday morning paid
little attention to the fact that the horse
was missing from the staA supposing that
the doctor had taken it during the
night to make call and had not yet re-
turned. AS soon as possible parties were
on the lookout for the property and what
means at hand were used in spreading
the news of the robbery abroad in hope
that the thief or thieves might be appre-
hended. Being Sunday the mail facili-
ties were meagre and but comparatively
few places could be reached by telegraph
obstacles which aided the robbers in elud-
ing capture and gave them an opportuni-
ty to get long distance without being
discovered. Deputy Sheriff Cunningham
is securing the country in hope of re-
covering the property and if possible of
experimenting the perpetrators of this
bold robbery. Happily our city has been
usually quite free from crimes of this
character and it is sincerely hoped that
in this instance the guilty parties may be
brought to justice and punished as they
deserve. DR.. Barber offers a reward Of
twenty five dollars for the recovery of the
property or the arrest of the
thief

The ThaW and It's Beauties

The snow is all gone, sleighing swept
out of existence, and we are enjoying one
of the loveliest January thaws that was
ever ushered in upon us in this portion
of our beloved country The ice has be-
come treacherous unreliable, honey
combed, broken and rotten, disgruntling
the skaters and carrying dismay into the
painting bosoms of the ice harvesters, who
think from the present outlook that they
will not be able to reap much before
spring. In this brief essay we must not
overlook the mud because it happens to
be meek and lowly. 1t is certainly de-
serving of consideration, covering as it
does the multitude of shoe leather, when
ever it is your fortune to cross the street.
And then the limpid waters of the noble
Rock flow uninterruptedly over the dam
as natural as in a June freshet. The
trouble about this turning of the season
wrong end to is that the winter of our
discomfort will be resting for weeks on
the lapse of spring. To figure it down
fine, you may feel tolerably sure that for
every fine, clear and warm dav now, you
will secure five or six foul, harsh, dis
agreeable and outrageous days in the
spring.

DODGE COUNTY.
JUNEAU, January 9th, 1880

Mr. Jacob Hargraves, who was married
only last Monday to Miss Taft of this
place, met with a serious accident on
Friday, by having his arm nearly severed
between the wrist and elbow by circu-
lar saw worked by horse power. In some
manner the machinery got out of order,
and one Of the horses backing out crowd
ed him against the saw, which first cut
his arm and then threw him over infict-
ing a serious flesh wound on his leg just
above the knee. The physicians in atten-
dance hope to be able to save the arm,
although he will never again have the
full use of his hand. The brother, who
was running the machine, was cut on the
head by piece of the broken wheel.
The haypress of Allard & Martin is

In Hebron, December IL, 1879, Mrs.

in the 69th year of her age.
Mrs. Reynolds removed from Smith
field, Madison comfy, n. Y, with her
husband, the late VIM Reynolds, Sep
TENDER 1886, to Wisconsin, stopping until
the spring 1887 near Milwaukee, then
moved ont to Rock river, settling on the
farm owned by one of the Hakes on the
river road between the cities of Jefferson
and Fort Atkinson, where they remained
until 1888, when they removed to He
bron, and on the farm belonging to the
late Levi Crandall, and that and the farm
adjoining was their home until their death
except year and half that they lived
in the town Of Merton, Waukesha county,
going here for temporary purposes only;
therefore, Mrs. Reynolds, had resided in
Jefferson county forty two years, in He
bron forty-one, and in the state forty
three. Many were the changes witnessed
by her during her residence here. When
she came to Hebron there was no road,
only an Indian trail, no house between
Jefferson and Hebron, or Hebron and Fl.
Atkinson, or Hebron and Whitewater,
and each of these places had only two or
three shanties piece, and as many fami-
