having out recently returned from
a orlef outing at Wall Lake, we are
ao!e to give full particulars as to the
popular resort, Wall Lake is situated
In the prohibition county of Sac. This
prooably accounts for the presence of
such quality OF water. The residents
do not drink water and so s. LARGE
supply has accumulated which they
now rent out to tourists. What the
people OF Sac have been drinking
While this 1900 acre pound has been ac-
cumulating, deponent saith not, but we
are informed that Col Pabst of Mil
"aukee has most kindly feeling for
that community and that his repre-
sentatlVes make frequent visits and
lufther that the visits are not barren
OF results, Wall Lake is surrounded
oy lew stones and large quantity
tot mud and one merry-go-
round. The Denison campers, es.
peclally Cushman. have almost ex-
hausted the fishing. The fish are cat
tish or bullheads. They have horns
which hurt when you take them from
the hook and they average in size from
tour inches and quarter to four inches
and half They are edible. The
Lake Is sometimes quite rough. Judge
conner can give full particulars as 10
5nls. The Judge has always tried to
keep out OF the Eleventh district but
1t came pretty near being his finish
last Friday when he attempted to
make passage from Lakewood to
Lakeview during the worst kind OF a
storm. He together with the rest OF
the party were forced to returned to
Lakewood, drenched to the skin, and
the tales that are told of the efforts 80
OBTAIN suitable outfit of dry clothes
for the half drowndea nj. c. would be
mighty funny had not the accident
come so near being serious. Judge
Conner's exploit reminds US of some
OF our own and leads us to offer the
advice to our readers, never leave
home without an extra PAIR of trousers.
Ii one tears his coat he can carry it
carelessly over his arm aad complain
OF the heat. If one soils the bosom of
his shirt large tie or we'll placed
kerchief will hide it; MIR. Simpson of
Kansas has even revealed to us how a
statesman can get to Congress without
SOCKS; but panJs, that's alhereno. II
has been well said that the lower the
pants the higher the civilization. Some
OF our society ladies go SO far as to
say thatthe lower the gown the hig her
the civilization but we do not know
about that. AS to the trousers pro-
position it is true. From the breech
out of the savage to the we'll regulated
length of the twentieth century panta-
loon may not be far in linear lneasur-
ment but itrepresents far cry in civili-
zation. From the day when we sat
demurely in a corner with our legs
modestly draped in a travelling shawl
while our pants were being mended to
the day when we split our trousers
from ear to ear so TO speak in our
naste to make train, we have had
this maxim of prudence impressed
upon us and no", while we may carry
only change of collars and mileage
oook IN addition, we never neglect the
extra pair of what no gentleman should
be without.
We had good time at Wall Lake,
the bllsters on our palms give evidence
that I'VE seen our duty and we done
lJ'. No one caught any larger dsh
stories than we did and we tried our
best TO believe that the water was not
cold and to keep our teeth from chat
terine when we went Ia bathing.
Speaking of bathing we felt genuine
sorrow for the girl who had forgotten
ner bathing suit and could not go in.
But she took our advice and sent down
two cent stamp and had it mailed to
her 5" she was able TO appear on the
next day.
The crop of mosquito is said to be
oae of the best ever raised in the vi
entity. Denison left some of It's best
blood with them, Our hands look like
a map of Iowa with the school houses
marked in red
We want to impress upon our friends
however that we had good time and
what is more good rest. We arrived
at about 4 p. m. Saturday and went
