The first wedding in Wauwatosa was
on the 18th of December, 1897. Han
nah Hoyt and John Bowen being the
happy couple of that early day.
The first white baby-who was it?
The first adult funeral was that Of
Mrs. Chas Hart Mr.. Hart gave to the
town two acres of land for a burying
ground. Il extended from the south
line of the NJ E. Church property,
north. This land was to revert to the
heirs if used for any other purpose than
Gods Acre" As years passed, it
seemed wise to abandon this grave
yard, and the bodies were removed to
the present cemetery on upper Wauwa-
tosa avenue. On request, Mr.. Hart
from his home in California at that
time sent deed of the first cemetery
without limitations.
The first white man who died in the
town was an emigrant, who was
drowned in fording the Menomonee,
near where now is the bridge. One
young man, Wakely Chapel, earned
many an honest penny with his oxen,
Buck and Bright, in carrying per-
sons over the stream. Seated on one
OK, passenger on the other, he would
guide the oxen as they swan to the OPP
posite shore. They always landed
Savaral roda hollow tho onnoSifa ,,oinf
from which they started, because of
the strong current.
After the school house was built,
funerals were held in that place. The
coffin, newly made, with it's fresh odor
of stain and varnish was carried upon
bier an OK sled, or wagon-no hearse
or carriage in those days.

Normal Lectures.

Prof. Foster, of Great Bend, labOred
under difficulties in his impersonatlons
at the opera house, Tuesday night of
last week. The opera house was not
opened until late and the heat was very
oppressive, and the entertainment was
rather tame.
DIR. DIM. Fisk ,!Of Washburn College,
Topeka, gave two illustrated lectures
Monday and Tuesday nights of this
week. Prof. Fisk is no doubt highly
polished man and we'll qualified for his
position but the Index does not feel
called upon to endorse all he says. Too
much praise for j. PiermOnt Morgan,
the Vanderbilts, Goulds, Carnegies and
Rockefellers spoiled the effect of the
lecture.
His encouragement of college edu-
cation was timely and we'll, but it
should not be in such way as to
discourage those who are financially
unable to take advantage Of it.
His condemnation of Dick Croker
was good enough but he spoiled all of
it by lauding Marx Hanna. The puff"
for the Topeka Capital was also out of
place. The less partisan politics that
we get in these educational lectures
the better for our public schools.

And, like flowers. decay away.

It was reported here Monday and
yesterday that J. F. Lee, wife and
child were murdered at Prudence, Ok,
last Thursday. Mr.. Lee lived at Kiowa
until the opening of the Kiowa-Coman-

The report says he and his wife and

on their leturn home they were MUIR

We hope it will yet be found to be
false.
