Lecture Course.

!
During the past winter the sick
ness in our city caused such de-
preston upon the minds and hearts
of our people that there has been
no interest in literary or concert en-
tertainmeuts. The health of the
city has so much improved that it
is restored to Its former condition,
and now there is an opportunity be,
fore the summer season is upon us
to enjoy a short literary course,
Under the auspices Of the p. NJ.

lowing course will be presented:

]. G. WuITE, the anti-Catholic
orator who recently stirred up the
people of Lacrosse by his lectures,
has this week been creating the
same feelings at Baraboo. tuesday
evening an Indignation was held by
the Catholics to which the mayor
aud council men were invited. The
mayor was called upon to suppress
the lectures aud prohibit circulating
of hand bills, etc, but she mayor
was powerless in opposing free
speech. The matter has caused in :
tense feeling. Phil Keyser, a bust
ness man, was stoned one night while
going home from the lecture, but
escaped uuhurt. A number of the
business houses have been boycotted
by the Catholics where it was
known that the proprietors or clerks
were members or in sympathy with
the American Protective association.
Tho A, p. A. has a large member
ship, and is being greatly increased
since the arrival of White.
LAST Sunday brought to light an
other case of the revolver folly
when Henry Kaneble, residing a
short distance east of Platteyille,
aceidently shot and killed his six
year-old daughter. He had purchas-
ed a revolver on Saturday, and
wishing to see how it would shoot,
told his children to remain in the
house. He stepped out and aimed
at tree and fred. While looking
to see where the bullet struck he
glanced ahead and saw the hand of
a child thrust out of an clubhouse
door. Going to the house he dis
covered his daughter lying on the
floor with a bullet hole in her head.
She lived but short time. The
parents are distracted at their loss.
LAST Tuesday night large num-
Der of relatives and friends gather
ed at the home of Mr. Henry
Bennett in honor Of Rev. j. b.
Bartle and S. d. Bartle, of Evan.
ston, H., who have been visiting
here for the past two weeks. An
enjoyable evening was spent by all.
S. D. Bartle left for home Wednes-
day morning. Rev. j. b. Bartle
left for Oshkum, III. this morning
Saturday, May 2l.)
In ali classes if business men
could look at the matter rightly
there would be no friction in any
line Of business. Each is interested
in the upbuilding and advancement
Of their locality, and every attempt
to pull down one business interest
that contributes to the general well
fare in order that another may be
advanced, has thus far in the worlds
history resulted disastrouslY and as
rule history repeats itself
IT is said that the recent floods in
trout streams, have carried nearly
