NAV Be Iron Ore

Reports of a great strike of ore on a
ledge in Caledonia, between Portage
and this place have given rise to re-
port that great find of ore has been
made in that neighborhood by an east
ern corporation, whose identify is not
definitely known, but which is sup
posed to be one of the Pittsburg steel
companies. For the last three years
there has been considerable drilling for
ore in that neighborhood, and the work
was understood to be for the Pittsburg
company. After persistent drilling the
company finally left with its outfit.
1t was for time supposed that the
search for orelhad been futile, but with
in the last few days group of eastern
men have been busy in the locality
seeking options on all the land near
where the drilling was DONE They an
nounce that they propose to start a great
sheep ranch, but it is believed that the
men represent the steel company which
found a great bed of ore with its drills.

public with her book. She is now a
newspaper and magazine writer OF
New York city. Her book is of es
pecial value in that it tells the story
from the working girls own point OF
view. 1t gives clear insight into the
lives and conditions of the working
women in the cities, their aspirations
and their moral attitude. A vivid
representation of the true situation as
here given must surely create an i'm
pulse toward the betterment of con-
conditions. In the concluding chapter
occur these sentences: "She (the work
ing Woman) is too contented, too
happy, too patient. But not whole
somely so. Hers is a contentment,
happiness, patience, founded, not
in normal good health and a joy of
living and working, but in apathy.
Her lot is hard, but she has grown
used to it, for, being woman, she is
patient and long-suffering. She does
not entirely realize the tragedy of it
all, what ii means to herself or her
children perhaps yet to be born"

MORE HOPE FOR
SAUK IRON ORE

Another mysterious turn is made
IN the visible ownership of iron mines
In Sauk county. 1t requires an agile
mind to follow the convolutions of
title when a trust begins to juggle with
tangible and valuable assets. Now
the International Harvester company
has transferred to the Wisconsin Steel
company lot of it's property consist
ing of blast furnaces, steel plants, roll
ing mills, ore mines and coal lands.
This, of course, includes the North
Freedom mines.
The facilities of the Wisconsin Steel
company will, it is claimed, be increas-
ed within the next two months by
the completion of new IA and 16 Nor
gan continuous mills at the COM
pany's South Chicago works, and at
the same locationlthere will be erected,
during the present year third blast
furnace. If the eternal Juggling will
end here, and Sauk county's matchless
iron deposits come to the use their
quality demands, then will this be
gladstone news? Some of us still have
hope.

Piano Gifts

The statement has been made that
three pianos had been given away in
Baraboo when the number is much
larger than that, which shows that the
people in this vicinity have been very
fortunate in obtaining musical instru-
ments at practically no cost. The
Charles Wild Music House has given
pianos to the following as winners in
different contests.
Mrs. Frank Baxter, Baraboo.

F.B. Clark, Baraboo.
HI. e. Kelley, Reedsburg.
The firm of Erswell, Melzl & McGann
has given one to Charles Deyhle and the
one from the A. o. U. w. lodge
went to w. j. Radtke. Verify the
people have reason to be grateful, espe-,
cially when there are prospects of
more to be given away.

AnOthery Burglar
Assembly Chamber,
Madison, Mch. II,

A hghti fingered gent broke into
Emil Platt's saloon, on Third street,
Monday evening, and carrie off what
change was in the cash register,
amounting to SIS. This consisted
mostly OF. .nickels, dimes and quarters.
But the visitor left evidence of taste
for money of larger denominations for
he put into his pocket certain certifi-
Gates of deposit amounting to $4,000.
These, Iof course, are worthless to Mr..
Burglar, as only the owner can realize
on them. A warrant was issued by
Justice Andre this morning, "on suspi-
cion." The person charged in this
document will probably be taken into
custody this evening, and will have to
account for himself and his where
abouts during the past few days.

Surprise Mr.. and Mrs. Rumpf

A surprise party was sprung on Mr..
and Mrs. Daniel Rumpf, 304 Tenth
avenue, by large company of friends,
last Tuesday evening. The home place
was but lately sold to Conductor III. G..
Gropp and possession is to be given
next Tuesday; this made good excuse
for the planning and putting into exc
cution sort of farewell surprise.
The evening was passed in conversa-
ton, principally in talking over old
times. Mr.. and Mrs. Rumpf are among
the early settlers in these parts and
there are no names more highly re-
spected than theirs. Among those in
attendance were:
Mr.. and Mrs. Peter Rumpf, Mr.. and

VERBAL WILL IN
PROBATE COURT
DEATH.BED PREFERENCES TO
BE ESTABLISHED, D,-PERHAPS.
INTERSTATE DIED IN WESTFIELD
No Property Is InVoVed-Contestan
Thought There Was.

Judge w. I. Kelsey has under advise
ment an unusual case, the testimony
for which was taken yesterday. 1t is
that of contested nuncupative will
alleged to have been made by the late
John Wesley Werron, of the town of
Westfield, bachelor.
Those who seek to establish the verbal
will allege that the deceased on his
death bed, declared before three wit
nesses, in legal form, certain preferences
in the favor of Anna Schanke, a half
sister; the contestants seek to show that
these claims are all moonshine, both
in law and fact. Seven witnesses were
sworn, arguments of counsel were made
and the matter left to the court to de-
eide. Bentley & Kelley appeared for
the will, and Grotophorst, Evans Il
Thomas for the contestants. The office
of the Judge of Probate was we'll filled
with parties in interest and spectators.
1t now looks as if there is little mate
rial advantage to be gained in the out
come, for it has seemed to develop that
there is small amount of property in
volved. So far as the evidence is con-
cerned, only about SITS in personal
estate has been accounted for. The real
estate cannot be touched in the case.
A valuable farm is left to be divided by
the law of descent among the legal heirs,
who are Mrs. Philipina Stackhouse,
Mrs. Kathrina Black, sisters, and Anna
Schanke, half sister.
While the case of nuncupative willis
rare in this court, few have been heard
here. During his Is years, Judge
Kelsey has not had one contested case
of the sort before this; and during the
incumbency of his predecessor, the late
Judge Young, IA years, only one hear
ing of the character reached him.

TOO MUCH FAITH;
TOO LITTLE CHINA
LEFT DECORATED WARE IN TIE
COTTAGE AT THE LAKE.
BURGLARS BREAK AND ENTER
And When They Go Out, There Is Left
no Crockery of Value.
BURGLARS BREAK AND ENTER
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

w. HI. Clark, 217 Fifth street, has a
handsome cottage at the lake and is
famous for the hospitality he and Mrs.
Clark dispense during the outing sea-
son. And thereby hangs tale.
In order that there might be no possi-
BILE shortage of good cheer, Mr.. Clark
laid in a wholesale supply of eatables
early in the winter, together with a
new set of chinaWare. Such items of
the stock as would stand the rigors of
winter were stored at the cottage, to
save removing, Mr.. Clark having un-
bounded confidence in the moral stand
ards of this community. In the cozy
security of his handsome home he
dreamed dreams of the open house he
would keep at the lake next summer,
and in these flights of fancy the new
china, etc., lOomed as large as church
in a fog-to quote from the Scotch.
But as was once remarked about the
we'll laid plans of mice and men, they
'gang aft a'gley"; so with the genial
engineers.
A recent visit to the cottage disclosed
that some irreverent, pilfering, house
breaking creature had entered in and
carried off the whole smear. Who pro-
flied by Mr.. Clark's preparations for
the vacation time is not at present
known, but the matter is being inVeS-
tigated. If the culprit is apprehended,
they won't do thing to him. In the
meantime, Mr.. Clark's friends are say
ing that when the good time comes
there will be high grade porcelain and
a world of appetizing stuff to fill it,
just the same as if the enterprising
burglar had not broken into the cot
tage.

AMENDMENTS To
DAM INSERTED

The proposition of the Prairie du Sac
dam came before the assembly com
mittee yesterday at Madison and ii
was agreed by the promoters that GER
tain amendments be made to the bill.
The presidents and trustees of the vii
lagos of Prairie du Sac and Sauk City,
as we'll as Mayor Marriott and Alder
men Foley, Jacobs, Thuerer, Power
and City Attorney Kelley of Baraboo,
were also present. The city attorney
addressed the committee on the advan-
tages of the project and it was agreed
by the promoters that two amendments
be added to the bill:
That locks be put in.
2 That the dam be completed with
in six years.
Those who are behind the improve
ment stated that they supposed the
national government would demand
these and for that reason they were
omitted. They intended all the time
for these points to be incorporated.
The committee will no doubt recon-
mend the bill to the lower house and it
will no doubt pass both branches Of
the legislature. The matter will then
go before congress.
All feel assured that the dam at
Prairie du Sac will ultimately be
built.

Twentieth Century Club,
(From Fridays Daily.)

Yesterday afternoon the Twentieth
Century club devoted most enter
tanning meeting to review of the
Long Day, given by Mrs. Donovan.
The book, which was published last
year, contains the actual experiences
of working girl who goes alone and
almost without means to New York
city, takes cheap lodgings and seeks
employment. She goes through var
ious probations as a worker in a box
factory, maker of artificial flowers,
a sweat shop hand, shaker in a
laundry-all the time with the grim
monody, "Work or starve, work or
starvev' sounding in her ears. Later
she is fortunate enough to obtain better
paid employment, first as saleswoman,
then as food demonstrator in store,
and devotes her evenings to course in
short hand and typewriting. In this
branch of work she gradually raises
her standard by making a special
study of such essentials as spelling and
grammar in her spare time, until she is
able to fill a twenty dollar-a-week
position. The next step is editorial
work. Such are the actual experiences
of the author, Miss Dorothy Richard
son, whose name was not given to the

the people are paying up their taxes
better than usual this year.
AS usual the city of Baraboo will
furnish most of the delinquents. The
books of City Treasurer Hazeltine close
tonight, and the present indication is
that there will be more than $4,000 un-
collected. This will be more than the
delinquent list of last year, which
amounted $2,086.96 and many times
more than all the rest of the county.
Of course the tax roll is some larger
than it was year ago, but the advance
in volume is not enough to account for
the increase in delinquencies. The
total amount turned over to the city
treasurer last year was $74, 1858, of
which $6, ,740.28, was specials. For this
year the rolls were SIG, ,335.77, of which
SIS, 1850 are for special assessments.
So it will be seen that the unpaid taxes
for this year are larger than heretofore,
and seem to be out of proportion with
the history of the tax office. City
Treasurer LII azeltine has been diligent
and the delinquency cannot be charged
to him.
