JUST SMILE.
BY REV H. A. PRICE.

The value of 8 smiling face cannot be computed. But this we know, that many an one is making his life count and is being helped to forge to the front, because of the atmosphere he creates by being of Good Cheer. And what others are doing you can do, if you will. So Cheer up and Smile! Nothing attracts more than a smiling face, neither is there anything more contagious. And this is something all can do, and in which both the giver and receiver are blest. It costs so little and is worth so much. Give a smile and low! back it comes with in- terest compounded. Just look up and laugh, it's hygen1c. Give to others Good Cheer and you receive Sunshine in return. Smile and the world smiles with you, frown and you walk alone So, why be gloomy and sad when it hurts you and benefits no one? Come now, be of Good Cheer and Smile. Why not?

NEW BUILDING
Will be Erected for the Bara-
boo High School.

Yesterday afternoon the board of
education inspected three sets of
plans for new high school building
and those of Van Ryn & De Gelleke
of Milwaukee we're decided to be the
best adapted to the needs of the
city. The plans were then present
to the city council at special meet
ing last night together with res
olution asking for an Appropriation
of $75, 100000 to build the structure.
Mr.. Van Ryn was present and ex-
planned the plans and after some dis
cussion it was decided for the fl
nance committee of the council to
prepare an ordinance for the is
surance of bonds amounting to $58,
100000 TO aid in the construction
The school board will receleive in in
surance about $16, 100000 VIII ich will
bring the amount available almost
to the estimated cost of the build
ing.
The plans provide for a structure
of 100 feet frontage and 1913 feet
deep. 1t will be three stories high,
the basement being used for lockers
and manual training when estab-
lished. The heating plant will be in
an addition at one side of the build
ing so that there will be no fire
within the structure. This will be
a fan system for ventilation.
The assembly room will be on the
main floor with recitation rooms on
three sides. The ceiling of the
assembly room will project into the
third floor so that there will be no
rooms above it. A place for the
science department will be provided
on the third floor above the recita-
tions rooms below. The building
will face the north or west and
three entrances, one on the front
and one on east side. The design is
something new in the way of school
buildings.
The building will accommodate
more than is required for the pre-
sent so that the growth of the city
will not find crowded condition.
Other Business.
A J. Kelley was granted a permit
to build place to store machinery

ADDRESS
On Manual Training by Hon.
L. .. Harvey.
(From Thursdays Daily.)

Ex-State Superintendent L. d
Harvey OF the celebrated Menom
onie Training schools, came to Bar
aboo last night with a message
which he delivered at the First M.
E. church to large audience. His
field of labor is in manual training
and domestic science and all who
heard him are convinced that Bar
aboo should have thesein in the course
of study in the public schools.
Pupils should be taught how to
handle tools, to make things and
to have the hand trained as well as
the mind. In order to do this
something must be sacrificed in the
course of study but this can easily
be done. The extra expenditure is
justified on the ground that through
the training of the hand there comes
to be a power in the individual to
accomplish many things. It is
worth all it costs and more in that
it gives a capacity to earn a living.
The speaker assured his hearers
that ninety percent of these who
go from the public schools must
earn a living by the use of the
hands and that only ten percent
enter the professions or commercial
life.
AS to domestic science, work is
done in cooking, dressmaking,
millinery, home nursing and house
decorating. Experts are not made
in the public school course but
much is done in the preliminary
training.
A machine of today is not con-
sidered as to it's cost but as to it's ef-
fectiveness or the work it can do. Re-
suits not cost count. The cost of
a training school must be measured
by the ability the pupils will have
to accomplish their work in the
world.
Superintendent Gehrand had
charge of the meeting and was in
strumental in bringing Mr.. Harvey
to Baraboo. Mr.. Gehrand spoke a
good word for the schools under
these trying times and hoped all
would assist in the work until the
new building is ready.

To-day they finished a journey of
fifty years together and all their
friends assembled to congratulate
the N on so many days of peace
and pleasantness and wish for them
many future years of the brightest
sunshine and choicest contentment.
The home at 224 Fifth street was
opened this afternoon to all who
desired to call and many availed
themselves of the opportunity to
extend their best wishes on the

beautifully decorated and choice
refreshments were served to all who
came.
DR.. and Mrs. Koch were married

doctor had been educate1 IN a

sea. He arrived in Baraboo in Feb
ruary, 1871, coming from New
York to Mazomanie by rail and from
there to Sauk City and Baraboo by
stage. Mrs. Koch and children
came to Baraboo in October, 1871,

before the great fire. That summer

Boiler Exploded.
Erom Fridays Daily.)

In the railroad wreck near James
vile, Wednesday night. the boiler
of passenger engine No. 555 ex-
ploded, adding to the horror of the
collision. The pipes in the boiler
were doubled up like a jack-knife
and pieces of timber and iron litter
ed the landscape for a radius of
fifty RODS. Engineer Lafferty and
Fireman Maher were thrown into
the air and far from the wreck. Both
bodies were blackened and Lafferty
showed only wound on the temple.
Maher was almost crushed to pieces,
his head and stomach being crush
ed in and his legs and arms broken.
Conductor Peck of the freight,
was very unfortunate. He was
hurled headforemost against the
stove and received a concussion of
the brain. He was not cut or bruis-
ed to anv great extent. Brakemen
Lyons and Rice were scratched and
bruised but escaped serious injuries.
Fireman Bernish was caught be-
cath the firebox of his locomotive
and was crushed almost beyond re-
cognition. His body was not re-
covered until yesterday morning.
How Engineer Briscoe escaped he
himself does not know. He found
himself on the ground nearby and
crawled into the caboose of the
freight. Besides bruises aud scratch
es he sustrained fractures of the
bones of one ankle. No one had
time to jump.
A coroner's jury was impaueled,
visited the wreck and viewed the
remains. The jury adjourned until
Monday.
Master Mechanic Huffman, who
went down to the scene, said it was
the worst wreck he ever saw. He
says that the big mogul engine of the
freight can be repaired at a prob
able expense of $5, ,000 Tra;nmaster
]. W. Layden and Roadmaster J.
~ Blair also went down.
\ message at noon today from
Janesville stated that Conductor
Peck was still unconscious. His
physician says that he has a fight
ing chance to recover.

train was so badly injured that he
did not regain consciousness until
he reached the hospital. Engineer
Lafferty and Fireman Maher were
dead when the remains were taken
from the wreck. Their limbs were
broken and their bodies badly black
ened and scorched.
A wrecking train was summoned
from Baraboo and hurried to the
scene of disaster with all possible
speed. The crew worked heroically
for hours, with the body of Fire
man Bermish deep down in the
debris, as their goal.
Cause of Accident.
The freight, which was bound
for Belvidere by way of Alton, was
supposed to wait, it is said, for a
Chicago passenger train. Instead
the trainIpulled out, thinking the
Dekalb train heard in the distance,
was the Chicago train. The two
locomotives met while going at a
good speed around curve at Mon
terey. Only the prompt action of
the trainmen and farmers of the
neighborhood saved the passenger
coach from burning.
The freight cars were but slight
ly damaged, but the baggage car
on the passenger was completely
wrecked. Miss Crosby of Sycamore,
on the passenger train. was thrown
across two seats and badly cut
about the head and bruised intern
ally. Other passengers on the train
were slightly hurt. The wreck oc-

men. Engineer Lafferty Of the

neer Manning's run as an accom-
modation, Manning having made
the run for five years without an

WILL BUILD THE DAM.
Project is Incorporated For
Immense Sum.


In the Office of the register of
deeds at Madison, Feb. 14th., was
filed articles of incorporation for a
company to develop the water power
at Kilbourn. The incorporators are
Philip L. Spooner, Magnus Swenson
and E. J. B. Schubring, the capital
stock is 81, ,5OO,O 600, divided into Is,
900 shares of 800 each.
What will come of the develop
ment of this power, the greatest in
Wisconsin, is difficult to predict. It
is claimed by engineers who have
made examinations, that at least
1000 horse power is assured in rea-
sonable low water The fall in the
river above the proposed site is so
sharp that 17-foot dam will not
back water to the dells, but it will
improve the navigation between Kill
bourn and this wonder of nature.
What use will be made of this power
is to be seen later. The people of
Kilbourn and Baraboo are very
curious to know, for they readily
see the vast possibilities it opens in
the way of manufacturing.
Incidentally it may be stated that
the people of Baraboo and Kilbourn
are pretty certain that an electric
road will be built and operated with
power generated at the proposed
dam. Surveys have been made and
some right of way has been secured.
Besides this the proper develop
ment of the Dells and Devils Lake.
is under consideration.
Among other possibilities is that
the Kilbourn-Devirs Lake interur-
ban may be extended into Madison.

promising one. 1t will require near
