his adherence to the non-partisan

give him a clear field, without one

sirabie to have the bench entirely
free from political party influences,
and when we'll qualified man has
been found, who on test has proven
his adherence to the nom partisan

Grant Citizenship Papcrs.

Judge Grimm, of the jefferson
county court, has made neH ruling
in relation to the granting of citizen
ship papers, which will be of consider
able convenience to those who desire
to get their second papers. Hereto
lore these have been granted only by
the circuit court; and this has to be
done while the court is In session.
Considerable Inconvenience resulted
because many could not appear before
the court adjourned. and frequent ap-
pllcatlOns were therefore made to the
county court. After investigation of the
constitutional provisions and statutes
Judge Grimm is of the opinion that
the act of 1897 giving the county
court OF Jefferson county common law
jurisdiction brings it within the con-
stitutional requirements, and that he
cannot refuse to entertain an applica-
tlon for admission to citizenship in
any proper case. William Mass, OF
the town of Jefferson, was the first to
receive the benefit of the new ruling.
and on making the proper proof wa.
admitted last Friday. The court
took occasion, also, in a few words,
to impress upon the new citizen the
protection and privileges which
citlzenshlp confers and the duties it
carries with it. 1t Vas then announ-
ced that applications would ordinarily
be entertained on the first Tuesday of
each month at o'clock P. NJ. and at
all other times when court was in ses-
elon for any purpose. Times.

Proposed Marriage Law.

AS fOrecasted in these columns a few
| weeks since, a bill has been intro
duced in the legislature which pro-
poses to place number of restric-
tions in the way of marrying in this
state. Senator Stout is father of the
bill and it was drafted by Attorney
Woodward, of La Crosse. 1t is GER
| tain that if the bill becomes a law it
will curtail the number of marriages,
The foremost provision of the
measure is the forbidding of marital
union among persons afflicted with GER
tain diseases. 1t is proposed to create
an examining board of three physi-
clans in each county, to be appointed
by the county Judge, and not more
than two members of each board to
be Of the same school of medicine.
Wherever possible one of the mem
bers is to be a woman physician. The
physicians are to hold Office for life or
during good behavior, and are to be
paid from the fees paid by the appli-
cants for marriage licenses.
Every person of either sex who de-
sires to marry must go before this ex-
amining board and pass physical ex-
animation before he can receive a IL
cense to marry. No person is to get a.
license who is a dipsomaniac, has true,
or hereditary insanity resulting from,
vicious habits or. the use of drugs.
hereditary tuberculosis or consump-
ton. or who has various other dis
eases
All persons who are refused Ii
cense to marry by this examining
board are to have the right to appeal
TO the state board of health, which
has power to grant the license and to
remove for cause any members of
local examining boards. The local
examining boards are to meet at the
county seat Of the county at least once
week to examine candidates for
marriage. The fee for the examina-
ton 10 81. so, and the examining sur
geons are to be paid from the fees,
but are limited to 81 900 year, all
receipts over that amount to 90 into
the county treasury.
-
OF Importance is a requirement that
any male applicant for marriage Ii
cense who is under 21 years of age,
and any female who is under 1S years,
must produce the written consent of
the parents before license can be is
sued. Any clergyman, justice of
the peace, or other person who is
authorized by law to solemnize mar
riages. and who shall marry any
person who have not been exam
ineo and passed by the surgeons, or
whe marries any minors without the
written consent OF the parents, is to
be punished by a fine of not more
than $500 or Imprisonment for not
more than year.

list, Chased by an Angry Crowd.

list. .Chased by an Angry Crowd.
The spectacle of more than
frightened male individual, clad in
yellow tights and dark overcoat, be-
ing. chased by an irate crowd Of men
and boys was the uncommon sight
that attracted attention on Second
street, between Market and Main
streets, about o'clock Monday after
noon. The individual referred to was
"Prof.' McNevin, an alleged aerial
artist who struck the town last week
and for several days advertised that
he wclld make an ascent in his bal
loon and then thrilling drop to
Mother Earth by means of his para
chute. The ascent was first announced
to be made On Saturday afternoon
from the vicinity of Schott Bros cafe,
but when the prop time came
the Prof. said he would be
compelled, for va ious reasons
which he gave, to postpone his
mid-alr feat until Monday after
noon, when it would take place from
Ohm Bros yard. Consequently there
was gathered at the latter place at he
appointed hour goodly assemblage
to witness the performance. The
Prof" before proceeding with his
performance went through the crowd
soliciting small contributions and
succeeded in getting something over
$6. Then he made the painful an
nouncement that he could not think
of risking his life among the clouds
for this paltry sum. BY this time the
crowd was ''getting onto" the fake and
commenced jeering at his professor
ship. The jeering brought on ex-
asperation and finally the would-be
balloonist was chased f. ON the prem
ises. He took fight wi h the crowd
at his heels, seeking re uge first in
Berg & Sells meat markej a11 finally
in Achtenhagen & Helm ans ore.
In the latter place the police offered
him protection and he was escorted to
the Jail office, whereupon the crowd
dispersed. McNeviu left town in the
evening.
1t is said that this individual goes
from town TO town advertising balloon
tensions which never take place.

SECURED BIG BOOTY.
Burglars Crack the Safe of the III. G
Christians Company at johnson
Creek-$5OO and Some
jew elry Taken.

Jewelry Taken.
Monday night the Office Of the H.
G. Christians company, the we'll
known wholesalers of butter and eggs
at johnson Creek, was visited by
thieves who made rich haul, securing
about $500 in cash, some government
bonds, a gold watch, two gold chains
and pair of diamond earrings, besides
a number of rare old coins which Mr.
Christians had collected. The jewelrv
stolen was the property Of Mrs. j. d.
Bullock, of this city, who had left it
in the Christians company's vault for
safe-keeping.
The work was evidently performed
by expert cracksmen. Nitro glycerine
was used to blow open the vault and
also the safe, which is within the
the vault. No one, however, heard
the explosion and the robbery was
rot discovered until the Office was
opened in the morning. SO much of
the explosive was used that the front
of the safe was a complete wreck, the
fragments of the time lock being
scattered on the floor. The Chris
tians company carried burlary insur-
ance to the amount of 81 900 in the
Fidelity & Casualty company.
Sheriff McGolrick and his force are
working diligently on the case and
hope soon to be on the right track of
the culprits. Suspicion rests on two
strangers seen about the village in
the early evening.
