of Watertown's ne woman lawyer:
miss Elizabeth Z. Holste, who re-
Gently passed the examination for ad-
mission to the bar, was born at Water
town, Wis, in 1877. She was gradu-
ate,s from the Watertown high school
at 'eIe age of 10. After a short rest
and. after securing the highest first
Craze certificate ever issued by the
late Supt. j. L. Flavin, she began
teaching in the schools Of Dodge coun-
ty. In this profession she was known
as one of the ablest OF instructors and
iplinarians, possessing that indie
scr.bable magnetism which won the
love, good will and respect Of her pu-
pills. 1t having become her ambition
to enter the legal profession, she re-
sigced her position as assistant in the
Theresa public school and pursued a
course of study in the law. Present.
ing herself at the December eXamina-
tion for admission to the bar, she was
successful in securing the highest
standing. She is modest, refined, ac-
complished, and brilliant conversa-
tionalist. As a student she bears the
reputation of being energetic and per-
severing. She is noted in debate for
her earnestness and sound reasoning

is THERE LOOSENESS !?
Sheriff Jaehnke Charged with Neglect
oil Duty-Allows Tramps to Escape,
So 1T Is Alleged

SO 1t Is Alleged
The Watertown Daily Tim es pub
lishes an article in which it says:
ut is openly charged by police Of
ficers and at least one Justice of the
peace in this city that men who are
sent to the county jail at Jefferson as
tramps are in some cases, it is alleged,
allowed tn cir liberty before the expir-
alton OF the sentence imposed"
Sheriff Jaehnke. when shown the
above, denied the charge that he ever
willingly allowed tramp or other
person in his custody to leave the Jail
before the time for which he was SEN
fenced expired. He says that it is
possible that one may have escaped
from the stockade. as it is a difficult
matter to prevent one from securing
his freedom if he so desires, but if so
1t was not with his consent. We know
that Sheriff Jaehnke is endeavoring
to faithfully discharge the duties of
his office, and when he made the above
statement we believe it to be true. -
Jefferson Banner.
10 the above article The Times of
Friday last made a sharp and perti-
nent reply, coming out into the open
and displaying evidence that would
seem to indicate screw loose some
place. Several instances were shown
where tranps committed for specified
terms from this city would return here
in G day or two and be recommitted.
The Times says: aIf they all escaped
it would seem "a sad commentary upon
the vigilance of those in charge, but
in the case of one man it is different
He was sentenced by Justice Stacy and
was re-arrested the following day and
told Justice Stacy that he .ate three
meals at Jefferson jail-dinner, supper
and breakfast. After breakfast he
asked the boy in charge to be rel ased
and he is alleged to have said, i will
see, and later let the prisoner go"
1t is our opinion that this matter
needs thorough sitting and Sheriff
Jaehnke made to give satisfactory
explanation if possible.

SOCIAL HAPPENINGS.

A good audience attended the con-
cert given at Copcordia Opera house
last evening by the Scalchi Operatic
Festival company. No doubt the
chief anticipationS of the evening
were in hearing the star of the com
pany, Madame Sofia Scalchi, Who not
so many years ago won wide renown
for her splendid work in grand opera,
being at that time known as the world S
greatest cOntraltO. But Madame Scalchi
is perhaps not now what she was then,
for her singing is not altogether pleas
ing and it was evident that last
nights audience did rot consider her
the foremost attraction of the COM
pany. That honor without question
belongs 10 the soprano prima donna,
Madame Bernice de Pasquali, an
American singer who has become
Justly celebrated for her beautiful and
thoroughly artistic work. She pos
SesSeS a voice of rare sweetness and
true expression, and uses it with the

his only appearance was in the act
from III Trovatore. 1t is therefore

Creditable work was accomplished
by the pianist and accompanist, Chev.

The program was in two parts. the
first consisting of individual selections
and the second giving glimpse of
grand opera in a presentment of the
second act of 'sIl Trovatore, +" in which
the entire company participated.
From the generous applause accorded
portion of the program, it was evil
dent that at least some ofthe audience
found the concert immensely pleas
ing, while others at the close were
pronounced in expressing their dissat-
isfaction.

speech gives way to splitting, the repulsive
odors of chronic catarrh poison the kiss of
the fondest lovers, and thickened mem
branes bedim sight, impair hearing and de-
stroy taste
Like the plague-stricken Egyptians a cry
of distress has gone out from every house
hold, and the mildew of woe clings to every
hearthstone.
Catarrh in some form, catarrh in some
stage turks as an enemy in the slightest
cough or cold and finishes it's fendish work
In heart disease and consumption.
No tissue, function, or organ of the body
escapes its ravages; muscles wither, nerves
shatter, and secretions dry up under it's
blighting presence. So stubborn and diff
cult is this disease that to invent a remedy
to cure chronic catarrh has been the ambi-
ton of the greatest minds in all ages
Is it therefore any wonder that the vast
multitude Of people who have been cured
of chronic catarrh by Peruna are so lavish
in their praise of this remedy? That the
discovery of Peruna has made the cure Of
catarrh practical certainty is not only the
testimony of the people, but many medical
men declare it to be true.
As drug store in this age of the world is
incomplete without Peruna, it can be OBJ
tanned anywhere with directions for use.

cure of catarrh and all diseases of winter,

Catarrh is the Contin-
ua1 Scourge of
Christendom.

Catarrh hovers ominously over every
city, and nestles treacherousy in every ham
let. 1t flies with vampire wings from coun-

of despair over all lands. It's stealthy ap-
proach and its lingering stay makes it dread
TO the physician and pest to the patient.
1t changes the merry laugh of childhood
to the wheezy breathing of Group, and the
song of the biushing maiden to the hollow
cough of consumption. In it's whitening
