The Or. Hills Lecture.
(From Friday Daily.)

DR.. Newell Dwight Hills had a
hard time tc get to Bara boo, last
evening, on account of a wreck on
the road, which prevented him from
making his train connections. He
was even cut off from catching the
accommodation which reaches here
about 8 o'clock, so when he reached
Madison at about 8, the G. & N. W.
officials had ready for him a special
which whisked him to Baraboo in
time to step upon the rostrum at
9 o'clock. The audience waited
patiently and kept in a good humor.
Rev. Sarles introduced him and
announced his subject as "Oliver
Cromwell" For an hour and a
quarter DR.. Hills poured forth facts
about the Lord Protector, like bull
let's streaming from a machine gun.
There was little humor in his
lecture, but there was much infor-
nation which showed to what great
extent we are indebted to Cromwell
for the common liberties we enjoy.
While the lecture was good, many
who have heard him in the past
claim that he has lost much of his
power as a public entertainer. He
was so fatigued after the lecture
here that he Cancelled his engage
ment for West Union, Iowa, where
he was to appear tonight. His
former visit to Baraboo was such a
pleasant event to him that he
did his best to fill the engagement
even at the sacrifice of the one in
the Hawkeye state.

SEN TO PRISON.
Two Winnebagos Get State
Sentences.

Joe Eagle and Geo. White Eagle,
two Winnebago Indians. will spend
the next eighteen months behind
the bars in the state prison at
Waupun, according, to a dispatch
from Grand Rapids.
The Indians were arraigned be-
fore Judge Webb Monday at Grand
Rapids and upon a plea of guilty
we're given sentence. They were
charged with committing highway
robbery and making a criminal as
sault upon one Mary Dekorra, an
Indian squaw who lives near Friend
ship. 1t is stated that the prisoner
attacked the equaw at night and
overpowering her stole $50 from
her person and attempted to com
nit criminal assault.
The crime is alleged to have taken
place early in December and for a
time the Indians were lodged behind
the bars of the Portage Jail as
Adams county has no such insitut-
ion. The Indians were bound over
for trial and were taken to Grand
Rapids and placed in jail there.
The two Indians formerly camped
in Caledonia and Fort Winnebago
and for a long time made this
vicinity their home, making livli-
hood by trapping.
The prisoners alleged that Mary
DeKorra, the complaining witness,
robbed them of $50 while in camp
at Kilbourn and they were endeavor-
ng to get their money back.

, Deep Snow.

Snow in the state of Wisconsin is
deeper than in any other state in
the union. According to the monthly
report received by Weather Observ-
or Spencer, there is from 9 to 20
inches of snow throughout this
state. The present conditions are
exceptional and without precedent
for thirty years when the state is
considered as a whole. The states of
Iowa and Minnesota are also cover
ed with a generous blanket of snow
due largely to the recent big storm.

Information Desired.

An effort is being made by the
State Archaeological society to
gather in a systematic manner ali
data possible pertaining to prehis-
toric men in Wisconsin. The task is a
difficult one and the resources Of
of the society are limited so the
work is being done by persons who
get no remunerat tion and who can
give only their spare time to the
task. Each year old settlers who
could give valuable information are
passing away, mounds and other
traces of Indian life are being
effaced by cultivation, and Indian
relics are being sold and scattered.
These conditions make the task of
the society more difficult each
year.
Perhaps no district presents NOR e
complications of this kind than does
Sank county which was unusually
rich in traces of Indian life. More
or less work has been done in Sauk
county by different persons but IT
was not until last autumn that d
move was started to secure all
available information. AS this work
progresses difficulties are met and
it is absolutely necessary to ask for
all Information that any one may
be able to give. During the winter
months tie field work of surveying
mounds is suspended, but it is de-
sirable to continue the collecting of
data along the following lines:
|. Mounds, location whether in
tact or destroyed.
2. Village or camp sites.
3. Cave habitations,
4. Corn fields and garden beds.
5. Quarry sites.
6. Refuse heaps, (Shell heaps
etc.)
Z. Caches.
s. Cemeteries.
9. Kane Burials.
10. Trails.
IL. Indian relics of any character.
From time to time articles will
appear in Baraboo papers explain
ing what is meant by some OF the
above terms. Meanwhile any in
formation will be gladly received.
1t may be sent through mail, or
by members of the High school or
left with H. E.Cole of The Baraboo
News. Please remember that your
help is needed to make the record
for this section as near complete as
is possible.
