HOUSE BREAKERS
At Work While People Atten-

Thursday was big day for house
breakers. While their occupants
were at the fair in the afternoon
there houses were broken into. Chas
St. Clair's home on Oak St. was en-
tered, probably through the back
door, by two boys. They succeeded in
opening a safe, and stole about
$500 in silver. Nojewelry or silver.
ware are missed. They were seen at
a distance, but the witness was
unable to give accurate description
so as to arrest anyone.
The house of Chas. Heidon on 1st
avenue was entered, and ransacked
thoroughly. Papers were strewn
everywhere, and bedding was spread
about the room. Apparently the
intruders were looking for money, as
nothing is missing. A similar pro-
ceeding took place at Lu Stadler's
house on Sixth avenue where every
thing was searched, but nothing
was taken. No arrests have vet
been made.

- from that time there
will be numerous gatherings to dis
cuss the subjects which have beer
arranged for the present year. For
several weeks there has been a
noticeable increase in the demand
tor the ponderousency clopedias al
the Baraboo Public library and a
marked actively in renovating par
lors, and reception rooms in pre-
aration for the forthcoming in
tellectual gatherings.
AS often in former years.
Woman's club opens the campaign
and will indulge in the first meet
ing of the season. This year the
club will not follow a definite line
OF investigation but most of the
time will be devoted to the United
States dealing in part with it's his
tory, statesmen, authors, resources,
wonders and other topics. There
will be discussion at each meeting
on some topic to be announced.
The club opens on the last Satur-
day in October and closes on the
first Saturday in May.
The Twentieth Century club will
hold the first meeting on Thursday
afternoon, October 6, and after
trip to the St. Louis Fair will devote
the greater portion of the year to
a study of the modern dramatists,
including Ibsen, Biornson, Haupt-
man, Sudermann and Wagner.
Household bacteriologY, the state
convention of the federated clubs,
clean cities and how to live will also
receive consideration during the
year. The hostess tor each meet
ing will provide music.
The members of the Inter Sc club
will devote the entire year to
Russia. The ladies do not appear
to have sanguinary inclinations,
however, for no provision has been
made to discuss the causes and
possible effects of the great strug-
gle in the far east. Much time will
be given to the past history on the
cars domain, the founding of
cities, the problem of Poland, the
condition of the people and an
afternoon with Tolstoi. There is
one ray of Anticipated levitY, how
ever, for conundrums will be one of
the topics at one of the meetings
in March. The program does not
state whether the conundrums will
be of a Kuropatkin or Stoessel
nature but it is safe to say they
will not be.
The program committee of the
FortnightlY club has not gained
full momentum as yet and the work
for the year has not been mapped
out. A member of the committee
reports that the program will be
of a miscellaneous nature and the
topics of such a character to pro-
woke the usual spirited discussions
for which the club is famous.
Besides the literay clubs there
will be others for dancing, cards
and other forms of amusement.
Club life as usual will no doubt be
full to the brim during the year.
