WILD RIDE
From Baraboo to Kenosha to
See Dying Husband.

Mrs. Frank Harvey, who was in
in Baraboo visiting her sister, Mrs.
J. S. Cunliff, had a wild race with
death on Wednesday when she went
from Baraboo to Kenosha in order
to see her husband, who lay dying
at the Kenosha hospital as a result
of injuries received in being run
over by train.
Harvey was hurt late Tuesday
night and when taken to the hos
pital he asked that his wife be noti-
fed and that the physicians give
every possible stimulant to keep
him alive until he could see his wife
and son again. Mrs. Harvey and
little son took the train as soon as
possible after the message was re-
ceived, and as soon as they REACHED
Kenosha a carriage was in waiting
for them and they were driven
lrapidly to the hospital,
Harvey had been unconscious,
but when the wife came to his bed
side smile of content spread over
his features. The woman and the
little boy, with tears streaming
down their faces, attempted to
comfort the dying man and Harvey
reached out and took the hand of
each of them. The physicians,
moved by the scene, left the room.
Ten minutes later the man was
dead. Mrs. Harvey was completely
Frustrated. The remains of Harvey
we're taken to Escanaba, Mich, for
interment.

anxiety to know what mad become of
the man whose package, containing
81 ,OO0 he held in the safe, and for
whom he had borrowed 5000 from
merchant friend a couple of days be-

A valise, similar to the one left at

Inc following day young man
alighted from the Grand Haven train
and, going to the hotel, presented a
letter from the diamond dealer, which
read as follows:
Dear Landlord: | am closing deal
for a fine pair of horses and a carriage,
with which | shall leave here to-mor-
fow morning for Muskegon. am
trading a few diamonds on the deal,
but the man has held me up for 5000

let the bearer have for me. also
nave on another diamond deal. which
l expect to clinch to-day Yours etc. .
Not daring to entrust the messenger
with the diamond mans thousand dol
lar package, and not feeling justified
in opening it, the landlord instantly
sent the two hundred in cash out OF
his own pocket. First, however, he
questioned the messenger and learned
that he was an old resident of Grand
Haven, and knew everyone there.
The next day we expected to see a
handsome team driven into town, and
were really disappointed, when night
came, and none had arrived.
The next day was still more disap-
pointing, especially to the landlord
On the following morning, the hotel
people began discussing the matter
quite freely. The landlord brought out
the envelope, upon which was written
the diamond dealers name and the

The following afternoon he stepped
Up to the Office and asked the landlord
for Iarge-sized envelope. On receiv-
ing it, he took from his pocket q large
roll Of bills and, after counting them
IN the presence of the proprietor, writ

Ting down the amount as $1,000, he
said;

LODGE PICNIC.

An effort is being made by some OF
the members OF The city's fraternal
societies to get al lodges together on
July 4th and hold a picnic. There are
26 OF these societies in town and a
postal card has been sent the secretary
OF each, stating the plan. Providing
no regular meetings are held before
May 23d the secretaries are requested
10 call special meetings before that
time and select representative to a
meeting to be held in the clerk of the
courts office in the court house on the
evening of the above date. Should it
be decided to hold such picnic and
celebration, committees will be ap-
pointed TO make arrangements. About
eight years ago the different societies
got together, paraded over to Warren
park opened up their lunch baskets and
WIN their families spent pleasant day
under the shade of the pines The re-
freshment stands and other sources of
revenue brought TO the societies enough
money to pay all expenses of music,
ETC., and if We mistake not there is
stlll small balance on deposit in one
OF the local banks. This was done. too,
IN the face of counter attractions.
There were horse races at the fair
grounds which drew out thousands of
people. The lodge mem bership of the
city at that time was only about half
what it is today. While great many
new lodges have since been established
others have doubled or greatly in
creased their membership.
1t is not very likely that any effort
VIII be made by our citizens to get up
any public celebration for that day and
mere Is an opportunity for thousands of
our people to enjoy themselves at small
expense. The picnic, while gotten up
by the societies, would. of course, not

people, as was done at the last celebra-
tlon, when Gov. Schofield appeared
here.
