and unnecessary in any part of Wiscon-
sin. Pres. Ernst disliked the force
ment of English on any one, avowing
that the general use of the English Ian

fifty years it would cover the whole
country. He dwelt at considerable

ticket. G. A. Christensen, of Juneau,
Scandinavian Republican, who sup
ports the Republican state ticket, while
opposed to the Bennett law, closed the
meeting with some remarks upon

peal of the law they favored in the

was caused by hot-box in the separ-

there was no water in barrels as pro-

robbed Of $500 in currency and GER
tifcate of deposit on the Marine bank
of Milwaukee. He had arrived in Chi

tells the story of the robbery as fol-
lows:
His ticket called for rebate of So if
presented at the office of scalper at
Ill Clark street, and Mr. Bott bent his
footsteps in that direction. While
looking for the number he was accosted
by man who asked him what he was
looking for. Mr.. Bot answered and
the stranger said: "Well, that is funny.
[ am going there on exactly the same
mission. know where Ill Clark street
is, and you just come along with me"
The stranger sueerGd MIR Bot to the
lonely locality near the railway tracks
at Taylor street, and turning upon him
seized him by the throat and shut off
his wind. at the same time giving a
shrill whistle, which brought his con-
federate to the scene. The confederate
used sandbag on Mr.. Bott, and while
the old man was unconscious they
robbed him and left him in the street.
He recovered consciousness at the end
of half an hour, and seeking a police
man reported the matter. Mr.. Bottis
70 years old, and was unable to give
anything like good description of the
sandbaggers.
