vile, which occurred on the 18th, con-
tains lesson which good many people
in this county should heed or it may cost
them their lives in the same way.
These old people were murdered for
money they were known to have in their
house. 1t is practice with certain peo-
pie, and particularly so with a certain
class of farmers, to keep considerable sums
of money in their house, when, with a
little effort, they could deposit it in some
good bank near by. After while this
habit gets to be known among their
neighbors, and before a great while every
thief and tramp in the vicinity for miles
knows it. A few years ago, while acting
as president of this city, then village,
we searched tramp and found on him a
list of dozen or so well-to-do farmers
living within few miles of this city and
of Jefferson. We could see no reason
why he should have such list, except
for the purpose of robbery, and each one
of the persons on the list was known to
keep more or less money in his house.
1t is very dangerous practice and
practically puts premium on robbery,
and in some instances murder. Farmers
should let it be understood that they al
ways keep their spare cash in the bank.

Prominent among the special features
arranged for by the management of the
Milwaukee Industrial Exposition associa-
ton, and to be presented in connection
with the coming fall exhibition, is the
famous japanese village. This realistic
representation of japanese village life
was first presented TO the public in New
York early in she present year, and has
been accorded the most fattering praise
by the public and the press. When it is
considered that a good-sized colony Of
japanese men, women and children are
required in providing for the public this
faithful representation of japanese do
nestle arts, and that no less than twenty
shops and studios are kept ia operation,
the tools, furnishings and samples there
for amounting to over fifty tons, faint
idea can be had of the expense incurred
by offering so grand an exhibit.
