REP KTER ENLARGED.

With the beginning of 1888 we
present the Wood County &eppr-
teri to its readers as a seven
column. quartz, instead of a six
column. as heretofore. We were
compelled to take. this step as our
space was. too limited, In its
present form it is the largest paper
as we'll as the Oldest in Wood
County, Very few weeklies, if
any, larger in the state.
1t is our intention to make
other improvements as rapidly as
our. means will permit. Our aim
at all times, will be to give Wood
County. as good .aacounty organ as
is patronage viii warrant. There
are changes we would like to make
at this time, but are unable to.
Before the year 1888 closes we
hope to make many, which will
materially improve the present

He Burns His Clothes.

Frank Allen, who was sentenc-
ed to two years in Waupun on
Thursday last at Grand Rapids by
Judge Webb was returned to the
county jail here the same afternoon.
The following morning hepreceed-
ed to burn up his. entire wearing
apparel, including shoes, stockings
hat, coat and pants, by placing
them into the stove. Upon this
fact being discovered by Sheriff
Vaughn, Allen was provided with
another pair OF drawers and pants.
These he took into his cell, and
after the officials had gone out,
proceeded to tear them into Iinnu-
:nerable strips. All of this time,
the most vile curses were heaoed
upon the Sheriff aud deputies,
both in al. Il out OF their hea~ ING.
Seeing that It would be, utter folly
to provide tie fellow with further
clothing. he was alio red to keep
his cell until SunISv evening,
When fiaey were to start for Wau-
pun. Then he was proyidcd with
another complete outfit. incluL g
a straw hat. which was the NOS,
available at the time. an this he
ore into sheads on the train. w1ie,
his hands were shackeled behind
him. On rea ching Oshkosh, Allen
vas first taken = the police station
and afterwards TO ihe county Jail,
there being no tram out for Wau-
pun until ali early hour, six
o'clock the following morning.
At about half past FIVE o'clock in
the morning, Sheriff Vaughn who
was accompanied by c. P. Mason,
went to get his prisoner, and was
Mortified to find that he had again
repeated his deviltry, burning all

necktie. They must take the first
train, and providing Allen with
pair of over-shoes, loaned by
Mason for the eoccasion} they
started for the police station,
short distance away, the prisoner
having on neither coat, pants nor
hat. Upon being asked how he
enjoyed the climate in his thin
attire. Allen replied that he
wasn't kicking, although his teeth
were then elashing together with
She cold. "A pair of pants were
procured for him at the hotel, and
in this way he was put aboard the
train and safely landed at Wau-
pun. cursing the sheriff and depu-
ty all the way down. The
Oshkosh and other papers have
intimated that the treatment of
Allen was. cruel, but the method
taken was really the only course
left to the sheriff, as he did not
wish to remain there another day.
Then for several days he had
taken the fellows abuse in, agood-
naturcd manner, and Allen had
continued to add insult to injury
with each succeeding hour, until
human forbearance could scarcely
stand it longer. He is ofperfeCtly
sound mind, without the slightest
indication Of insanity, but during
his earthly career has aceumuIat-
ed an over abundance of pure
unadulterated and unmixed
cussedness. He found our Sheriff
equal to the occasion, however,

Education for Women.

Now that there are 266 colleges for
women only, and POI coeducational COL
leges, it is interesting to note that it
was just 100 years ago that Mary Woll-
stencraft made the first demand that
society should provide for women OPP
portunities for the highest education.
Ten years later Hannah Moore's book,
Structures ON Female Education" ap-
peared, and in 1919 Emma Willard
made the first appeal on record in this
country for State aid in the higher ed
ucation of women. The Boston public
schools did not admit girls until long
years after their establishment, and it
was not till 1928 that girls were admit
to all grades below the high school.
Then gradually there were established
girls boarding schools, female seminar
les and colleges, and constant effort was
all the time being made to get girls ad-
devoted to the education of boys. But
every step along the line OF march was
disputed and objections were raised on
every side. Girls were told that the
limitations of their nature forbade it,
that both social and domestic relations
would be disregarded if the higher ed
rcation was vouchsafed to women; and
finally. they were told that if society
and home were not ruined by their de-
votion to study they would at the least
make of themselves physical wrecks
