An effort has been made by certain
citizens to secure fer Joe Noiseaux his
berry by furnishing bail for him. At
the time the prisoner was bound over
to It court for his alleged assault

ford, he was required to furnish heavy
bail bond for his appearance in circuit
court, which be failed Of az the time
Those who have endeavored 80 aid him

means. Through bis attorney they en-
deavored to have the bail bond re-
duced, and last Saturday Sheriff ChelIis

at Merrill for that purpose, but the
judge deferred action in the matter m

A BEAUTIFUL CITY.

Henry I. Bailey was greeted by a
large audience at the Opera House last
evening, being introduced by Supt.
Karl Mathie, and his lecture proved as
interesting as that delivered By him
here two years ago. Mr. Bailey stands
for the identifying of cities; the com
mereialiSm of the people of this country
and their mad race for wealth getting
the upper hand of them and making
them taking less interest in their home
cities, whereas with a little energy spent
in tearing down obnoxious bill boards
and advertising matter that meets the
eye on every dead wall and vacant
space, the building of public parks and
beauty spots. makes one feel more like
living, aud besides enhancing the pic
turesqueness of town one takes more
interest in it. Cities should be beauti-
fnl because they add TO the enjoyment
of them-to ourselves and our guests
and because beauty has an uplifting in
fiuence and a regenerating force. How

cities By getting rid of our native
egotism. We stand corrected IN mat
tiers of ethics, We accept humbly the re
proof of friend administered in love,
but when our supposed taste is criti-
cised we are averse to such criticism.
1t was a mastery aud scholarly plea
throughout for the elevation Of the
native beauty of American cities, and
believe left a lasting impression on all
who were fortunate hearing il. Mr.
Bailey carries with him vein of humor
that takes away the dryness Of his sub
ject and makes il interesting TO all.

ADDING TO.


The Curtis & Yale company is
launching out this year on a larger
scale than ever before. The firm has
come to the conclusion that it must
have more room and therefore several
large additions are being made. Fac
tory No l, which is just across the
main bridge has an engine house and a.
main building three stories high, l4S
feet on Clinton street, and 70 feet on
First Ave. back of this is an addition
100x65 feet, two stories high 1t is pro-
posed now to raise the latter one
story, and add to it on the west and to
the main building on the north, three
story building l00Xl0S feet. Work on
these large additions have already
commenced aud it is expected they will
be completed by spring This will
make one of the largest and most COM
plete sash and door factories in Wis
consin. The firm will also have lum-
Der shed built north of the factory
The one which it now has is 70x90O, the
new shed will be 56x3O0 Truly. the
Curtis & Y ale factory is one in which
our citizens take great pride, and when
it prospers it means prosperity to a
goodly share of our population.

IN MINNESOTA.

Miss Bohrer attended the Minnesota
Educational Assn at St Paul during
three days of last week. One of the inter
esting features of the meeting was the
able prophecy, regarding twentieth
century conditions and demands, pre-
scented by DR.. David Starr Jordan,
president of Leland Stanford Univer-
sity Dr. Jordan is man who pos
sesses both a national and an interim
tional reputation as an authority upon
many subjects besides natural history
Both lectures, "The Demand of the
Twentieth Century for Effectiveness in
Education" and the one upon "Agas-
siz" were an inspiration to all present.
The latter address was largely reminis-
cent; the speaker abandoned the
stereotyped facts of biography and re-
called many interesting incidents in
the career of the great scientist under
whom he had labored for many years
as a devoted student.
Prof. Augsburg, of Oakland, Cal,
gave an instructive chalk talk In which
he simplified the work of instruction in
drawing for graded and rural school
teachers. In the college section one
important question discussed concerned
the separate education for men and
women during the freshmen and
sophomore years. The majority Of the
speakers declared themselves in favor
of co-education during the entire col
lege course. The subject of qualiIica-
tons and limitations for the degree Of
doctor of philosophy was then opened
for discussion and men of large exper-
fence and training were of tie conyic-
ton that the degree should be con
ferred, not because Of the completion
of three or more years of study after
the attainment of the bachelor degree,
but should be conferred because of
special power of research or decided
and original ability manifested along
particular lines.
Many minor subjects of great interest
and Importance were discussed pro aud
con but the usual regret was expressed
by many that nothing definite and
tangible was formulated by SO distin-
guished body of educators TO serve as
mile stone in the progress of education.

PETE-EN-WELL ROCK SOLD.

Pete-en-well rock, che of the famous
land marks of Central Wisconsin, has
recently been sold to the Northwestern
Railroad Co., and will be quarried to
its very base, being broken up into
building stone for the use of the COM
pany. The company is now extending
its branch from Necedah to this rock
on the bank of the Wisconsin
river preliminary to its work of de-
struction
The rock is magnificent species of
Potsdam sandstone, that towers 100
feet or more above the surrounding
country, and being isolated from any
hills or elevation it has the appearance
of lone sentinel or watch tower over
the adjacent low lying lands. In fact
we believe there is an Indian legend
connected with the rock, Indicating
that the Indians used it for this very
purpose in the halcyon days of their
occupancy of this country. AS early
as 1916 at this point was located the
only trading post on the banks of the
river in the northern part of the Wis
consin River Valley Near this spot
lived old man Salter, whose wife was
massacred by the Indians in 1861 at
their home there. His name was a
terror to the Indians ever afterward,
and If is said that no less than fifty and
upward were killed by him to satisfy
his revenge. At this spot the only
bridge that spans the Wisconsin river
between here and the Dells is located.
All the old settlers, everybody in the
vicinity of Pete-en-Well, look upon its
destruction as an act of vandalism
that is little short of Dissertation. For
years its picturesque outlines have
been the object of admiration to all
beholders and its historical associations
have made it dear to every native of this
section Wisconsin Valley Leader.
