Of youthful burglars who have been
committing numerous depredations in
the city and vicinity during the past
two weeks. Seven summer cottages,
two grocery stores and two confcction-

broken into and robbed. The cottages
are located along the shore of Lake

Merrll's Spring, only used by their
owners during the outing season.
Besides stealing such stuff as had
been left there they had broken and
destroyed the furniture in several. The
lads, whose ages run from I to l6 years,
are Frank Schmidt, Ernest Crors, John
Thomas, Gus Starkweather and John
Norton, the latter a darkey. The first
three named seemed to be the worst of
the lot, the others having been into only
one or two places. They were arragncd

Ashland Saloonkeepers Forced to Apan
don Iheir ISusiness for a Time.

MApIsoy, Wis, April 27-Judge
Bum, of the United States circuit and
district courts, proposes to call a halt
on the sale of liquor to Indians by
salOonkeepers, if severe penalties will
have the desired effect. So long as they
could escape with fines once or twice
year they found the business profitable.
so he changed the practice yesterday
afternoon and gave five Ashland men
terms behind the bars. Four of them
were members of the Benner family,
two brothers of whom, Alex. l.. and
Eugene, run a saloon at Ashland, while
Marvin and Allen, sons of Alex. are
also connected with the establishment.
All pleaded guilty to the charge of sell
ing liquor to Indians. The two older
men were gwen a year each i'll the
state prison At Waupun, while the two
youths were sent 10 the house of cOrrec-
tion at Nitwaukc e for nine months each.
James Barclay, also of Ashland, was
given a wear at Waupuu, having previ-
ously pleaded guilty. Five squaws,
three OF them young and gay, have been
held here as witnesses in these cases for
several weeks, and they told hard stories
to the district attorney of the CarousaIs

and in rooms connected with them.

TREATMENT OF THE FEET.
An Authority Discusses Hot. Ice. and Spirit
Baths for Them.

A writer in Boots and hoes has
been interviewing a ChiropOdiSt on
the care of the feet, and has got this
information from him concerning the
treatment for heated, tired feet after
walking or standing.
He says, trurIy enough, that
authorities differ as to the value Of
the various foot baths. "IIUt water

be rubbed or exercised before at

STRANGE CAPTIVITY.
Herds Of SPrinCbok in Africa Sweep
Everything Before Them.

Herds of Sprincbok in Africa Sweep
Everything Before Them.
The springbOk of South Africa migrate
in vast herds, moving in a compact
body, and carrying everything before
them If a flock of sheep be in the
line of march las it sometimes happens
it is surrounded, envelopcd, and be-
comes, willingly or unwilliDgIy, part of
the army. An African hunter tells the
strange story of seeing a lion in the
midst of the antelopes, forced to join
the march. 1t is supposed that the lion
had sprung too .ar for his prey, that
those upon whom he alighted rcCoiled
sufficiently to allow him to reach the
ground, and then the pressure from
both TANKS and the rear prevented him
from escaping from his strange cap
tiVItv.
If the springboB travels in such arm
les, how can those in the middle and
rear find food? In this wise: Those in
the front ranks, after they have eaten
grccdily of the pasture, gradually fall
out of the ranks TO rest, while the hun
cry ones in the rear come up, and so
the columns are all the while changing.
