guide proved to know little about the
country, but he set the adventures
down upon a quarter section near
Lake Koshkonong and assured them
it was theirs by right of pre-emption.
With hired help they built cabin of
logs, and shed for their stock, which
consisted of three head of horses and
a yoke of oxen. Nearby were the great
eXpanses of marsh of the Koshkonong
region and between excursions ofhunt-
ing and fishing they cut stock Of
marsh hay to provide for their stock

its beginning in tamarack swamp to
its present activity as a commercial
center.
Mr.. Barnhart was born in Troy, New
York, March %, 1925. His boyhood
and youth were spent in the vicinity
of his native city. Influenced by the
spirit of the times to share the advan-
tages of the west, he moved to Rock
ford, ILL.,, in 1854 and in 1855 to Lyons
near Baraboo, where he was employed
in the chair factory of III. r. Ryan.
The factory was one of the early in
dustries of Baraboo and has long since
passed from sight.
In 1858 he moved his little family to
Reedsburg where he engaged in the
wagon and carriage business and where
he has since remained with the excep-
ton of few years spent in Virginia.
1t should be stated by way of ex-
planation that it was intended for this
sketch to appear in March %, but on ac-
count of the photograph going astray
it was impossible to do SO.

PITCHED BATTLE
NEAR BARAbOO
TWO MEN, A WOMAN, TWO PUPS.
AND FOUR GEESE HAVE OUT
WEST OF TOWN.
CHARGE ASSAULT AND BATTERY
Line Fence Had Been Ordered Built
Some Time Ago-Trespass Cause
of Action-Man Imprisoned
in Henhouse.
CHARGE ASSAULT AND BATTERY
(From Thursdays Daily.)

In the case of the State VS.. John
Southland before Justice Shuts, which
came up yesterday, the defendant en-
tered his plea of fnoIocontendere, which
means that the defendant will not fight
the case, but is neither guilty or not
guilty. On such plea being entered
it is up to the justice to fix fine,
which Justice Shuts promptly fixed
at $500 and costs amounting to $3.55.
The difficulty grew out of a line fence
and the mutual trespassing of stock.
SOuthard and Scanlan are neighbOrs,
living west of BarabOo. Last fall Mr..
Scanlan was ordered by the fence
viewers to build a lawful fence, Mr.
Southland having built his fence in a
lawful manner previously. Mr.. Sean
lon had failed to conform with the
order of the fence viewers by neglect
ing to build his fence. The stock of
both parties had been getting across the
line and bOthering occasionally for
sometime past. One day two pups be-
longing to Mr.. Scanlan strayed over to
Southard's place and staid there. They
were not however, shut up or restrain
ed by Mr.. Southland. On the following
day four geese belonging to Southland
got over the line of Scanlan's premises
and were promptly driven to Scanlan's
house and shut up in the hen house.
Mr.. Scanlan, the owner of the premises
requested Mr.. Southland to come and
get his geese, but, evidently did not tell
his wife of his action. Mr.. Southland
went to Scanlan's and was throwing
his geese out of the hen house to drive
them home when Mrs. Scanlan arrived
on the scene and without due warning
to either side something of the nature
of pitched battle ensued. This battle
mostly occurred inside the hen house,
but after Mrs. Scanlan succeeded in
tearing the shirt from Southland she re-
treated to the outside and locked Mr..
Southland in the hen house, when
Southland promptly pounded the door
off the hinges, threw out his geese and
drove them home. Mrs. Scanlan re-
ceived cut over the eye, which she
said was inflicted with the hammer in
the hands of Southland. Southland
claimed that the injury must have
been inflicted by the door falling upon
her when he was making a break for
liberty. There was no evidence taken
in court but the above are the claims
as stated by the parties. Attorney
Evans represented the complaining
witness, and Daniel Ruggles was at
torney for defendant.

was full upon them mosquitoes came
up out of it's boggy streches and
made life one weary waste. One even
ing the pests were intolerable and a
fire was built to smudge them out. In
a paroxysm of pain and rage Harasz-
thy gathered up torch of hay from
the nearby shed and lighted it in the
fire and swung it about his head to
drive away the winged tormenters. A
spark caught in the hay shed and in
an instant it was in ablaze. Here they
had laid their guns and pistols, all
loaded, under the stack was stored
their keg of powder. They took to the
tinlber and hid behind the trees await
ing the natural result of combina-
ton of gun powder and burning hay.

MAD DOG
BITES TWO PEOPLE
Animal Shot-Owned by Herman Fam
lily of Portage.

Mrs. Chas. Herman and her 15-year-
old daughter, Augusta, were bitten
Thursday morning by young hound
belonging to the family. 1t is feared
the pup was suffering from rabies.
They were attempting to catch the
dog to tie him in the family dooryard
in the First ward about o'clock when
the animal suddenly attacked them,
nipping Mrs. Herman on the arm and
the girl on finger. They fled to the
house, calling Max Meyer, neighbor.
When he entered the yard the dog,
frothing jaws widespread, jumped at
him. A vigorous kick checked the
brute's attack and the young man re-
turned home for his shotgun. With
that he dispatched the frenzied animal.
Dr. r. Kellogg was summoned and
promptly cauterized the slight wounds,
which would not be serious but for the
danger of rabies. The dogs brain and
spinal cord will be tested to determine
whether rabies had developed.
Sexton STAGE of Silver Lake ceme-
terry, 'phoned to the police late We'd
nesday afternoon that strange dog,
evidently mad, was cutting brainstorm
capers in that neighborhood, even bit
ing and tearing up the sod. Chief
Hurst sent man TO the spot, who shot
the dog. So far as known nobody was
bitten by that dog-Portage Register.

Count Haraszthy--Founder of Sauk CITY
VS. BARABOO WIS

About the year 1910 in the county of
BacsBodrog, Hungary, was born into
the world that restless pioneering
spirit known as the Agoston Haraszthy.
The exact location of the nest of the
family is said to be near Futak, a place
not given on any available map of the
| ancient Magyar dominion. He was the
only son Of Charles Haraszthy, an ed
ucated gentleman said to be of old
family and noble lineage, although
there is no record that he claimed the
distinction for himself.
EarIy y in the spring or 1910 AgostOn
Haraszthy, accompanied by cousin,
Charles Halasz, a lad of IS, set off
for America. 1t has been said that
Haraszthy became entangled in some
Of the revolutionary movements of
those days led by Louis Kossuth, but
this lacks evidence and the statement
afterwards made by Mr.. Halasz that
''we left Hungary for no reason, except
to wander" is given preference. They

on the old sailing packet Sampson
bound for New York. Florida, then |
in the worlds eyes as an colorado, was
their intended destination, but on ship |
board they read, or were told of GER
tain descriptions of the country of CEN
trail Wisconsin as contained in Captain |
Frederick Marryat's Diary in America,
which, with the testimony of fellow
passengers bound for Mineral Point to
investigate zine and lead deposits, de-
fected their purpose and led them to
strike out from New York to the then
unknown northwest. A fellow passen-
ger on the Sampson was Adolph
Reintdorff, who had a brother in
Illinois, Edmond Reintdorff, agreed
with them to meet on the Wisconsin
river, the site of an abandoned in
ian village, described by Marryat as
a veritable promised land.
From New York Haraszthy and
young Halasz went direct to Milwau-
kee and with little delay made an
entry of land in the public land
office, hired a guide and struck into
the country to make location. This

What Baraboo Needs
By VIM. TOOLE Pansy Specialist

one OF the most attractive cities in the
state, yet we have had at least one
example of what concentrated in
nuence can do to promote a general
desire for more beautiful home sur
rOund1ngs. 1t will be remembered
that TWO years ago Mr.. and Mrs. Phil
Cheek, for the purpose of promoting
CIVIC pride, offered prizes for the best
cared for lawns, flower gardens, and
alleys. The judges were much i'm
pressed with the fact that: in each
nelghborhood where there was COM
petition for premiums that the ex-
amples had a marked effect on the
pace given to their surroundings by
others living near. Through discus
sion and force of example, clearly de-
fined plans could be promoted, de-
finite standards to be striven for
might be established, and through CO.
operation results would be produced
which never could be accomplished
without organized effort. Because
OF reciprocity of interests the benefits
OF such a society would extend beyond
the city limits and membership need
not be confined to residents within
corporation lines.
The efforts of such society need
not necessarily be confined to decora-
tive horticulture. Anything which
would improve Baraboo as desirable
home city might be included within
the scope of its work andIthe results
secured would greatly strengthen the
efforts of the Ten Thousand Club to
increase the population of the Gem
City.

Answering your question brings to
mind, park system, an auditorium,
and civic improvement society, of
which the last seems most important,
because from it might result much
that would be beneficial to Baraboo.
The scope of work of such societies is
usually confined to promoting beauty
of surroundings, and because of natur-
al advantages, there are great possibil-
tiles for work of this kind in and about
Baraboo. What has been done by
Isolated effort has brought forth re-
suits which help to make Baraboo
