HOT TIME IN MADISON.
New Song by Local Talent That Was Never
Sung in Public.

Sung in Public.
Stevens Point Journal: The follow
ing song was composed by local talent
at time when Judge Webb was be-
lieyed to be the coming senator. The
purpose of it's authors was to sing it
at Madison during the contest but the
Webb managers advised against it,,
and therefore it has never been sung
in public and is here given for the
first time:
Up on old Wisconse, there is a man you know,
His name is Charlie Webb and he hasn't any
dough,
have to go.
There'n be hot time in Madison tonight
Cheer boys cheer, Quarles will set the pace,
You can bet Charlie Webb will be in the race
And when they cut 'em loose Webb will have
first place,
There'L be hot time in Madison tonight.
Old Judge Webb is the best we ever saw,
For many years he has dealt us ont the law,
And when the race is over, he'll be senator,
There'll be hot time in Madison tonight.
From Marinette. there comes old Uncle Ike,
He came into Madison hyking down the pike,
But if he wins the race he'll have to get bike,
There'Il be hot time III Madison tonight
From old Winnebago, there comes a man named
Cook.
Whom we all think is the last page in the book,
And if you don't believe it, why ask Gill Van
dercook,
There'll be hot time in Madison tonight.
Up from Necedah, there comes an awful roar,
Babcock has been congressman, but is after
something more,
But when the votes are counted, he'll feel awful
sore,
TheEe'll be a hot time in Madison tonight
From these few verses you'll know what we all
mean,
SpOoneT and Webb will make a winning team;
When the others think they're ain it," they'll
find it's but a dream,
There'u be hot time in Madison tonight.

Bremcn's Midday Dinner.

Nothing Is too remote To y, neglected
nowadays in the competition for trade
between the nations. While England Is
sulklng at the rapid spread of German
trade, and Is startled at the inronds of
American enterprise, with no clear idea
how she is to helphersclr, the German Cow
eminent Is on the lookout for any possible
encroachmcnt on her commercial power.
Some reckless innovator in Bremen latoy
undertook to change the immcmornl GUS
tom of the merchants Of that Free City OF
dining at the noon hour and to substitute
in It's place tho English fashion of dining
late in the evening. The Kaiser's ever

hour OF noon. An ccht deutsches Nit

hour for dinner, but also how that hour
has an important influence on the extension
of Germanys commerce.
