Into Tuesday Night.
Burglars Take Three Gun.s AWAY With
Them.--A Suspect Is Held and Guilty
Parties Will Likely be Landed
Recent Robberies

The plate glass front of e.
Bergmann's hardware store was
smashed in Tuesday night, and
three guns were stolen from the
front Of the store. The robbery
was a daring one as the store is
located in one of the most travel
ed portions of the city. A sus-
pect is being held by the officers
and it is thought the right people
can be secured. There have
been number of similar robber-
les in the city of late, including
the Mertz and Segal robbery,
and the authorities should spare
no pains to mete out proper pun
ishment to offenders of this kind.

One of the happiest men that
ever came to Washburn has
been one who has been here right
along, and that man is Doctor
Lampson. Ason and heir arrived
at his home last Saturday night,
and the Doctor was so pleased
over the event that he held an
informal reception at theopening
of the postofice at the noon hour
the following day. The Doctor
treated his friends to cigars, and
received congratulations from all
sources. He says the boy hasn't
learned to talk yet, but thinks
that by next week he will be able
to speak ordinary English.

Results Will Come.

Hayward Republican:-A special
edition Of the Washburn Times
reached our exchange table this
week. The edition contains sixteen
pages, and is full from first to last
page of interesting reading matter
and cuts pertaining to Washburn in
particular and Bayfield, county in
general. The manufacturing IN
dllstries of the different towns
throughout the county are well
written up and illustrated, the agri-
cultural possibilities of the county
are put before the county in terse-
manner, and every inducement
offered to new settlers by the COM
munity is presented in the edition
in manner which cannot fail to
produce results. The enterprise of
its editor, Mr.. Jones, is certainly
commendable, and merits the ap-
prevail of the people of his town for
the publishing of an edition that is
not only credit to his office but to
the entire community in which it
is published.

not prepared to-day to express an
opinion as to the situation there.
With reference to the report from
Bogota to the effect that the Colon

''The question of the establishing of
mints and the adoption of the gold

understand why they should be taken

An opinion expressed outside Of tho
Colombian legation concerning the af-

to obtain a firm hold on the isthmus,

Gudger says the governorship had
been rendered, but it is not known to

is grave. Acting Secretary Loomis
