opinion denying the habeas corpus writ

GRAND CHUTE
is CONQUERED
Temporary Golfer Dam Across
Wisconsin River Closed Up
Last Saturday.
RATED A SPLENDID
ENGINEERING FEAT
Peter DiederiCh Has Constructed
Many More Difficult Dams
IN This NeighbOrhO0d.

The grand chute, the whirl pool in
which so many men have lost their
lives, has at last been conquered. The
feat was accomplished Saturday and
to Peter Diederich, who is constructing
the dam across the river, belongs the
honor of doing what to many seemed
almost impossible.
Mr.. Diederich says that the work
was not so difficult as it might seem
at first sight-in fact to him it was
comparatively easy. He has had
many other very difficult contracts
seventeen in all-among which may
be mentioned the Nekoosa, South
Grand Rapids, Blron, Plover and
Stevens Point dams and other dams
on the Muskegon, Fox and Oconto
| rivers.
| 1t took two weeks to build the
Golfer dam across the river here. A
week ago Mr.. Diederich told some of
the citizens that the dam would be
closed up by Saturday, June 13, but a
number doubted. But Mr. Diederich
carried out his promise to the letter.
To start with. three anchoriDg
cribs, l4x14. ten feet high, were built;
these were filed with rock and in the
center heavy tie-poles were stationed;
To these poles were fastened two
inch cables. which aided in locating
the cribs for the Golfer dam. There
are four of these cribs, each of which
is 9x18, and II feet high. Between
the cribs is strong plank work, each
of the planks being 3x16 and % feet
long. In seeing this temporary
structure one is impressed with the
perfect engineering skill which
planned and successfully finished it.
The Golfer dam is 800 feet long and
it took thirty men two weeks tC
complete it, Work will be begun on
the main dam tomorrow.

"WE LOVE YOU, COME"
INVITATION TO ELKS.
Ashland Lodge Anxious For Meeting of the
Best People.

The b. p. 0. E., or commonly called
the Elks, have received the following
invitation from the Ashland lodge to
join in celebration July IA, Is, l6.
The invitation runs the gamut in it's
humorous and pathetic eloquence 1t
reads as follows:
To the Elks of WiscOnsin:-From
our pinnacle on the shores of the
Great Northern Sea we look out
over our beloved state and our hearts
warm as we see the herds grazing in
their pastures green, and we long to
have them follow the course of the
North Star and join us on our ever
green banks, where the feed is sweet
and all the ills which flesh is heir to
are waited away upon the ozOne-laden
breezes of the Northland.
We call to the leaders of the herds:
we sound the trumpet that they may
hear, and we even would WOO them
with sweet music if it would draw
them to US, for we are lonesome and
want their company. And not only
the Elks of the herd, but their sweet
hearts, wives and daughters. For we
have prepared a great feast. 1t
is the wish of Ashland Lodge. No.
55S, that every lodge within the state
participate in love feast with them
that they spend the allotted time
basking in the sunlight of our northern
clime-that it may kiss their cheeks
and paint them with the ruddy hueS
of health and happiness.
Can we say more to our brother
Elks than this? Yes! Simply:
1--WE love you. GOMEZ"

ARRESTED FOR
EMBEZZLEMENT
Assistant Postmaster Barker In
Jail at Stevens Point
For Shortage.
FORMER RESIDENT
OF GRAND RAPIDS
Managed Jackson Milling Com
pany--Embezzlement
Reaches $3.50.

George P. Reidenbach, of Green
Bay, postoffice inspector, caused the
arrest Friday of Jerome L. Barker,
assistant postmaster at Stevens Point.
on the charge of embezzling $3.50 from
the Stevens Point office. Barker's
books were found correct, but the
stock on hand was found short to
this amount. He is now a prisoner
at the county Jail and was taken to
Madison yesterday for preliminary
examination.
The maximum fine for this crime is
S., 900, imprisonment for five years, or
both, according to the discretion of
the court. Mr. Barker, however,
hopes that the court will deal justly
in his case.
Mr.. Barker is well known in this
city, having been manager of The
Jackson Milling company and held
other positions of trust. He has
many friends and acquainJances here
who are surprised to hear of his arrest
and who hope that he may be able to
clear himself of the charge.
From here Mr.. Barker moved to
Stevens Point where he has since
lived. He managed the Jackson
Milling company's interests In that
city for four years He was also
mayor for several terms. He Is
interested in the proposed electric
inter-urban railway to be built in the
Wisconsin valley, On October l6,
1898. he was appointed assistant post
master which position he has held up
to the time of his arrest.
In Stevens Point Mr.. Barker also
had many friends who would have
been glad to help him had they
known he was in need of money. He
is member of the Elks and several
other fraternal lodges.
On this matter the Stevens Point
Journal says: "He is under bond to
the extent of 81, 900 signed by a fidelity
company of Baltimore so that the
gONGTuulCuU VIII uOU OC UuC iOCOi.
Mr.. Barker received since July 1,
1902, salary of 81 200 per year. This
salary was granted by an oversight.
He should have received only half the
salary OF the postmaster which was
81, 300 or 81 ,l50. thus exceeding his
rghtful allowance by $50 per year.
This matter was mentioned with Is
other similar Irregularities in salaries
in the Washington dispatches OF May
3d. In consequence he received
notice few days ago that his salary
next year, which should rightfully be
81. 200, since Mr.. Curran will receive
81, 400, would be cut to 81, 100.
Mr.. Barker's populations have been
going on for some time, probably for
six months or year. The sum has
been dribbled out in amounts OF So or
$40 at time, it being the intention
of the defaulter to replace the amount
at some more convenient period. The
office had not been inspected before
in about two years.
Mr.. Barker is about 45 years OF age
and has wife and one son by a
former marriage"

carpenter shop, poultry house, and
bee house.
Plans have now been laid whereby
the school year will commence about
March or April and continue until
about December The school farm
consists of 164 acres of fertile land,
sixty acres of which have been cleared
by the students. An orchard of four
acres, comprising plum, pear, apple,
and cherry trees, has been set out.
also vineyard of one acre, two acres
of raspberres and blackberries, three
of Strawberries, and about ten of
vegetables and grains. Almost all of
the vegetables used at the school are
grown on the school farm. The bees
belonging to the school last year
produced $500 pounds of honey. The
work is all done by the students,
under the supervision Of competent
instructors. During the summer
term, which this year commences
June 3, some students are enabled to
earn their entire way through school.
One Of the best features of the
school is the home training which the
students receive. Christian manners
are impressed on their minds, and
they are taught the essentials of
housekeeping.
The success of this newly revived
idea of education is evidenced by the
increased attendance at this school.
This year more than 200 students have
ayaiIed themselves of the opportuni-
ties offered there. Milwaukee Senti-
