While Mr.. Bryan has been worrying about
the young man Absalom's welfare he has
overlooked Absalom's finish, and the strik-
ing similarity between the young mans
method of locomotion and his own. The
record reads: And Absalom rode upon a
mule and the mule went under the thick
boughs of great oak. and his head caught
hold of the oak, and he was taken up be-
tween the heaven and the earth; and the
mule that was under him went away.
And ten young men that bare Joab's
armor compassed about and smote Absa-
lom and slew him."-II Samuel xviii, els

GAME WARDEN HERE.

On Thursday morning last, Deputy
State Game Warden, L. Roberts, of
Barneveld, Dane county, arrived in the
city for the purpose of seeing whether
the game laws of the state were being
observed in this section. After being
around town few hours he gained in
formation which led him to believe that
there were matters that would bear
looking into. He went into a certain
butcher shop, pretending TO be buyer
of hides, and found the carcass of deer
from which the hind quarters had been
removed. Questioning the butcher as
to what had been done with this por-
ton of the deer, he learned that one OF
the quarters had been sold to Sam.
Livingston, Third street dry goods
merchant, who intended shipping the
same to a friend in Chicago. He imme-
diately left the shop and went to the
express office, where he found box
which looked suspicious, and which he
confiscated and opened and his suspic-
luis PAONCA W OC NOAlOOO1 III Wiz DO~>
contained one of the missing quarters.
He carried the same to the Bells House,
where he sold it. Mr. Roberts, in COM
pany with the district attorney, later on
found Mr.. Livingston, who admitted
placing the box in the express office for
shipment. As this was the first OF the
kind which came to Mr. Roberts atten
ton, ne decided to let the gentleman
off easy by paying small fine. This
will probably have wholesome effect
on others for there is no doubt but what
there is lots of this kind of work going
on. The public will probably hear OF
more of such cases as the one mentioned,
before Mr.. Roberts gets out of the coun-
try. We know of one Chicago man
who is waiting for the venison steaklet

FOUND DEAD IN BED.

Last Sunday morning John Dern
was found dead in bed. He went to
bed the night before in his usual health
and his wife, who slept in another room
heard nothing uncommon during the
night. When she got up in the morn
ing she was surprised that he had not
risen as he was ususlly an early riser.
She went to his room to call him and
found him dead. The body was still
warm and he could not have been dead
long. He had been subject to fits for
a long time and it is thought that he
died in one. He leaves wife and sew
eral small children. The funeral was
held Tuesday afternoon. He has lived
here for the past fourteen or fifteen
years and came here from Wausau
where he has a number of relatives

CURRlER NOW FREE.

The case of the State VS.. Frank Cur
rier was ended in circuit court last
week. This case was brought to this
city for trial last spring, upon change
oil venue from Waupaca county, and at
that time the jury disagreed, after
which Currier was placed in the county
jail, where he has remained ever since.
The jury, after being out several hours
on Thursday last, finely rendered
verdict of mot guilty." This gavo Cur
rier his freedom, the first time since
April Sd, 1899, at which time he was ar
rested. The history of the case runs
something like this: Late in the year
1893, C. q. Ogden, of Waupaca, brought
action against Currier to recover S223. 40
on note, together with interest, and
was given Judgment. Currier then
brought suit against Ogden to recover
s., 900, claiming that he had delivered
potatoes to that value to the defendant,
from 1890 to 1894, for which he was to
receive credit on the note, also on other
noGes and mortgage of 5000 against
his farm, which was held by Ogden's
brother. At this time Currier testified
that he had delivered the potatoes, but
this Ogden denied, he claiming in de-
fense that the size of Curriers' farm
would not allow the raising of potatoes
to that value in that length of time. In
April, 1899, Currier was arrested on the
charge of perjury, bound over to the cir
cult court in the sum of 81, 500, which he
was unable to raise The case was
then brought here upon application of
the defendant.
Currier has the sympathy of a large
number of people, for during his con-
fnement in Jail he has lost his family,
farm and everything He has gone to
work at Brokaw, and says that in time
he will return to Waupaca and make
an effort to regain his farm, which is
now held by Ogden.

DOUBLE VALUATION.

The County Board last week doubled
the assessed valuation of Marathon
county i6y the purpose of raising
enough tax TO build bridges the coming
year, the law relating to tais stating
that not over two mills on the dollar
shall be levied for this purpose. The
rains during the past season carried
away a great many bridges through the
county, and when the finance commit
tee reported it pointed out the necessity
of raising so, 600 for the purpose of re-
building these bridges The committee
on equalization reports the valuation OF
property in the county at S6,5iS, ,SI2
and as only the property outside of the
city and villages are subject to this tax,
il win be seen that sufficient amount
could not be raised for this purpose,
and to cover the outstanding indebted
ness Of s8,675 incurred by the board
last June Therefore this move was
made. and the valuation of the county,
as ii now stands, amounts to sl3. .O79, IA,
and viii not effect the taxes already
levied. This win merely give the
county clerk the opportunity Of making
q bridge tax levy sufficient to meet ths
! demands.

ON THE WRONG ROAD.

The arrest of two young boys, named
Gates and Mericle, last Tuesday has re-
yealed the fact that these two boys are
on the right path to life of crime un-
less checked in time. Gates is son of
Mr.. and Mrs. John Gates, and it was
upon complaint of his parents that he
was arrested, who charge him with hav-
ing taken $40 from them. When
brought before Judge Miller he denied
having taken this amount, but admitted
that month ago he had appropriated
to his own use Sl7 of their money. Ac-
cording to the account he gave OF his
actions since that time and the story Of
others SIT would not be sufficient to pay
for the fun he has been having, for he
has been making a good fellow OF
himself with his companions of late.
After listening to the evidence Judge
Miller saw no other alternative but to
bind him over to the circuit court in the
sum of $400, which he was unable to
furnish, and he will, in all probability.
languish in the county Jail until next
spring.
Mericle was wanted in Oshkosh for
robbing a store of goods and also 8
farmer of watch. chain and gun.
When searched he was found to have a
SO calibre revolver, each chamber load
ed, sixteen extra cartridges and watch.
Sheriff G. M White, of Winnebago
county, arrived in the city Tuesday
evening and took his prisoner to Osh-
kosh, and in all probability he will be
placed where he will not commit any
more misdeeds for awhile at least.

DANCE OF THE INSANE.

Each year certain amount of money
is spent for the entertainment of those
poor unfortunates, who are confined in
the county asylum. This money is ex-
pended in various ways, in concerts, in
ia king the more rational inmates to
circuses, and in diverse ways which
help to make life more enjoyable for
these poor beings. Among the number
on the entertainment course is dance,
which is given annually. To those
whose reasoning powers have not en-
tirely forsaken them, this EVENT. is looked
forward to with great interest, and at
the time it is held, immensely enjoyed
by those who participate. Last We'd
nesday evening was the date set for
this years dance, and an orchestra was
engaged, and the evening was spent, by
a great number of inmates, until a late
hour in the pastime of dancing. That
they enjoyed it was quite evident to the
party from the city who were present
~ spectators.

LINE BEING REBUILT.

The Western Union Telegraph Co at
present has crew of men at work re
building its line between Junction City
and Merrill, a distance of 40 miles.
This crew consists of II men and the
work is in charge of G. /. Cook. New
poles, cross arms and pins are being
put in, and cable will run into the st.
Paul depot. After the work has been
completed the line will be considerably
stronger, as there are being placed
eight more poles to the mile. The
crew has now reached this city and
is working north to Merrill. Mr..
Cook was in this section last September
with crew making repairs, and had
begun the work of painting the poles
in the city, when he was stopped by the
rains, but it is the intention of the fore
man to complete the work of painting
at this time, providing the weather per-
mits.
