-IImes-Review: Mrs. James Pigg
suffered severe bite by dog on
Monday. 1t was not by mad dog
but by house pet, the property OF
George Howell. Mrs. Pigg stopped
to talk with Mrs. Howell while on her
way down town, and upon being
asked to step into the house, did so.
Brownie, their shepherd dog. lay on
the doorstep and as Mrs. Pigg was in
the act OF passing through the door
he gave leap for Mrs. Pigg's throat.
His teeth penetrated her cheek and
nose and left some vivid marks as re-
mem brances OF the uncalled and I'M
looked for onslaught
Wisconsin Valley League is the
name OF the reorganized league of
high schools Of Spring Green, Mazo-
mamie. Prairie du Sac, Richland Cen
tire. Muscoda, Dodgeville and Prairie
du Chen. A field day for athletic
sports and contests will be held at
Spring Green, May 20. On the even
ing preceding the athletic meet there
will be decamatory contest to be
confined to the girls OF the high
schools. The boys will strive to
maintain the standing OF the schools
in the contests where Drawn and
muscle count, while liz those things
in which culture and intellectual
strength are the determining factors
the girls are to the front.
Mention is made in Mr. Michaelis'
article that one weeks delay in pub
fishing the city councils report was
due to this Office. The length Uf the
report and the late hour it was re-
ceived made it impossible to publish
the report that week without crowd
ing out other important matter and
working the Herald force until mid
night or later Wednesday. The eau
cuses and election were all over and
we could see no reason why another
weeks delay would make any material
difference to the public. Since ii is
impossible to have the report pub
lished before election it is immaterial
whether it is published one week, two
weeks or even month afterward.
