at Home in charge, from some unknown
C use his house caught fire. and with
its entire contents was consumed, ex-
cepting a stove and few articles of

Miss Alta Reed of Prescott, who sue

of Grand Lodge of Wisconsin, is a

Miss Sprague, who has held the office

ton OF her faithful services, was pre-

THE fair of the Southwestern Wiscon-
sin Industrial Association, held at Min

bearing the honors. Mr.. w. j. Dycr's
horse, Swegirt, took the first premium,
and German Boy was tho winner in
three straight heats in the two-forty five
class, there being five starters in the
races. German Boy is also entered for

from down the Beetown way, at whose
mouse the peddler disposed of some of
his trinkets to his wife during his alb
sence, was after him with a warrant
claiming he had stolen silver watch
and some $500 in money. 1t is a
mystery to US why such suspicious
looking characters are shown any quar-
tiers when they call, especially in the
absence of other members of the family,
and people who buy their tawdy wares
in preference to buying of home
dt alers, who are well known and are
only seeking fair and legitimate profit
on their goods, deserve the lesson here
