We noticed Wednesday morning
in the show window of the Twin City
Boot and Shoe store black bass labeled
IA Wisconsin Beauty weighing 4
pounds" It was caught by Alex Muir
that morning in the Wisconsin river
opposite J. w. Natwick's residence.
1t was truly a beauty.
Never in the history of the Wisconsin
river valley have mosquitoes been so
troublesome as at the present time.
There is no pleasure in drives, picnic
fishing or boating excursions on account
of these pests. Even the business
| places along river street are infested
with them to large degree.
Miss Lottie Lynn returned from
Appleton Monday and OH Tuesday
morning went to Tomahawk where she
was engaged to sing at a concert that
evening. She also sang in Merrill and

unusual vocal talent and should the
more be appreciated and supported by
our home people.

Supreme Court Tuesday in the case of
Jackson Milling Co. VS.. B. G. Chandos
by which the water-power rights Of
each were definitely settled. The
Jackson Milling Co. win the suit by
being allowed 81 per cent. The decis-
ion of the lower court allowed them
but so per cent. This settles a very
important case. The plaintiffs were
| represented by Messrs. Gardner &
Gaynor and the defendant by Moses
Hooper, of Oshkosh.
A goodly number of the graduates Of
the High School attended the meeting
