JUNEAU

A bazaar and oyster supper will be
held on Thursday afternoon and evening
at the residence of John HuStis, at
Hustisford, for the purpose of raising a
fund, for the building of an Episcopal
church at that place. A lot TO be used
for church purposes was some time ago
donated by Miss Mary Hustis, who died
a year ago, and since her death her sister
has interested herself in raising funds for
the building of church. The English
speaking people of Hustisford are taking
much interest in the matter, inasmuch as
there is no place of worship in the town
except the German Lutheran church.
Victoria Vieder was on Wednesday
sentenced to State Prison for Is years,

him something over year ago, clipping
with another Polander. She returned to
her husband last spring, and few days
later he sickened and died quite sudden
ly. Immediately after the funeral she
returned TO her lover in Michigan and a
short time ago sent to the Catholic priest
in Beaver Dam, for a certificate of her
husbands death. Suspicion having been
aroused the remains were disinterred,
and large quantity Of arsenic found in
the stomach A requisition from the
Governor was obtained, and two officers
started for Michigan where the woman
was arrested To the officers she con-
fessed her guilt and was brought back to
this county. At the present term Of
court 2. G. Lewis was assigned as her
counsel, and upon consultation with the
District Attorney she agreed to plead
guilty to murder in the second degree.

The Madison Horror.

Madison was the scene of one of the
most horrible accidents that ever occur
red in our state last Thursday afternoon
by the falling of the walls of the new
south wing of the capitol followed by the
caving in of the roof About fifty ma
sons, carpenters, timers, plasterers and
laborers We're at work in the great build
ing which is 70x120 feet and consisted of
three tall stories aggregating 70 feet in
height. The noise of the collapse was SO
loud as to be heard two miles distant
Six workmen were killed almost instant
ly and from thirty to forty wounded, OF
course there is nothing at present but
conjecture as to the origin of the accident
but there is little doubt that a defective
brick pier supporting the huge iron col
umns giving way caused the dire
disaster. An enquiry is now taking
place to ascertain upon whom rests the
responsibility for the accident, whether
the builders or the architect. Those ac-
quainted with the quality of Madison
brick are not,surprised that the crash
came where so much weight was resting
upon so flimsy foundation. But even
upon this theory the .architects cannot to
our mind be held wholly blameless. 1t is
their duty to watch closely the quality
and style of materials used in the con-
struction of the building they are super
vising and with the exercise of proper
care on their part no such accident ought
to occur. The wing was to cost $780,
| 900, and the construction was authorized
by an act of the Legislature of 1881.
Work was begun last fall, and was to be
completed Jan. l, 1884. The commits
sioners delegated to select architects and
let the contracts were Governor Rusk,
Secretary Timme, Treasurer McFetridge,
Attorney General Frisby, Associate JUS
tice Orion, the Hon. E. w. Reyes, and
n. B. Van Slyke. They selected d. r.
Jones, of Madison, Supervising Architect,
and H. G. Koch, of Milwaukee, Advisory
Architect. The contracts were let to
Bentley & Nowlan, of Milwaukee. The
north wing was for the accommodation of
the Supreme Court and State Library and
the south wing for the State Historical
Rooms The financial loss by the acct
dent is estimated at $4,000.

OaET. ArteSiGB Wells.

EDITOR REPUBLICAN.-That the phe.
nominally good health of our citizens is
! largely due to the excellent quality of
drinking water no one will undertake to
disprove. No, it is not the beer. The
water is principally derived from our sys.
tenn of artesian wells. We will not un-
dertake to say how many of these foun-
tains 1cere in healthgiving, thirst-alleyi-
ating, condition but will put the number
at fifty. Those peculiarly of public
convenience are the Bridge we'll, the
Second street well, the Third street we'll,
Christ Becker's well, S. M. Eaton's well.
We speak Of these as of peculiarly i'm
portant character because their location
is such as to more directly interest the
general public. It is, perhaps, well I'M
derstood, that all of the artesiaD wells,
with the exception of the one in the
basement of Buchheit's block, on Third
street, are supplied by the same stream,
and dependent on the same fountain
head. The yielding capacity of the stream
being, of course, limited, and it being
quite impossible to make water run up
hill, it must be plain to the most stupid
of our intelligent citizens that there is no
such thing as drawing more than the
capacity OF the stream, or making it rise
above the fountain head. We have not
the inclination to elucidate all the prin-
ciples governing our artesian wells but
will make bold 10 assert that there is
water enoug b for all, at the original level
of about 4 or feet above Main street
bridge, provided, that the pipes are put
in proper repair, and the owners of wells,
through the fundamentally of a lauda-
BILE public sentiment, be compelled to
abandon detestiole mulishness, if not
downright cussedness, for the general
good Our plan would be to put all the
pipes in the best repair, compel owners
to yield point for the benefit of them
selves and others, and thus restore all of
our Invaluable supply of water. In the
present article we have only endeavored
to throw out few hints, to whom it may
concern, and we hope it will not become
necessary to point out the guilty parties in
this connection. The necessary supply
of water for whole community cannot
be trifed with with IMMUNITY. There is
plenty of water for all, it is for the com.
munity to say whether absolute mean
ness shall prevail.

ing near Hubbleton, by the $40 train
bound east. Muench with another man
was walking along the track on his way
to HubbletoD, where he had taken a job
of digging well. 1t is supposed that he
must have turned around just before the
train reached him as he was struck 10 the
back, his spinal column being completely
shattered. He was dead before his COM
rade reached him. Deceased was 4O
years old and leaves wife but no chill
