4 fishing party consisting of Peter
Cola, ST., and son Pete, and VIII
George went up river fishing the first
of the week and Golla'S dog followed
them on the bank of the Wisconsin
river as far as MoccaSn Creek The
dog stopped at the mouth Of the creek
while the party continued up river.
They had been gone about two hours
and on their return noticed the dog
upon the bank anXiouSly waiting for
them. Peter Cola. Jr., wanted to
take the dog in the boat and rOwed up
close to shore for JhiS purpose. While
near the shore Peter took hold of a
small willow and attempted to draw
the boat close enough for the dog to
enter. In his efforts he pulled too
hard, the willow brnt and he went
backwards into the river headfOre-
most. When he came up out of the
stream he reminded one of Il rhlnOc-
eros. the way water flew. The dog
was obliged TO walk home after all.

After a long tedious Job, d. S.
Morris and his faithful crew of as
siStantS, completed the laying Of
water mains aud placing the necessary
hydrIntS in the streets of our village.
The test was made Tuesday and the
work accepted by the village board
that evening. In laying the pipe the
contractors were constantly annoyed
with surface water and quick sand
that neccSSitated curhing the entire
distance at great expense to the con-
tractors. Nearly the entire village is
POW protected from fire by the putting
in of the waterwOrkS. The village
has purchased 500 feet of hose so that
they can reach every nous" in the
village from the nearest l.ydrant.
I'IupprtN owners will now feel safe
from fire. This Improvement is Il
very valuable one to the community.
