STORE ROBBED.

People who were passing along lower
Third street, Sunday evening at about
eleven O'Clock, weie startled by the
crashing of glass, and in seeing two
young fellows emerge FROM n broken
window in John Lerum's store Though
the police were Immediately notified
and search made for the fellows, they
could not be found An investigation
showed that they had entered through
a basement door by forcing the door
from its hinges. They then tried to
come up through trap door but this
was barred. and in trying to lift it they
broke down the stairway. They then
resolved upon another plan. There is
large tin pipe leading from the fur
nAee to the hot air register This they
pulled from its fastenings and crawled
through the register. An electric light
burning in the center of the store was
turned out. To reach this they had to
place one chair on top of another and
then climb on top of them.
After selecting suits of clothes, hats,
shoes, collars, etc, they took off their
old buds and left them in the store.
They stole a number of watches, rings,
ETC., and We're Intending to make
good haul, for large telescope was
hauled out on the floor ready to be
filled. AT about this time it is supposed
they were frightened away by the
sound of footsteps either in the back
yard or on the floor above, and thinking
they would be caught if they attempted
TO get out the way they came in, they
chose to break the glass in the front
door and escape that way. When they
emerged from the building they were
seen by several parties They were
young fellows, perhaps eighteen or
nineteen years of age.
The circus employees were watched
and yesterday young fellow with new
"togs" was found who answered the
description. Mr. Leram was sum-
moned to identify the clothes, Sut the
young fellow proved to be an innocent
farm lad. who came in to see the ele-
plant. There is not much doubt but
what the robbers followed the circus
into town.

CARROLL COLLEGE.

Carroll college which has been the
pride of Waukesha for more than gen
Grafton, has taken a new lease of life.
Formerly its attendance was almost
wholly local; now it is drawing students
from all parts of the state A denomi.
national college, founded under Presby-
terian auspices, it is not seetarian in any
sense. A number of business men are
taking an interest in its affairs. seeing
the promise which it gives of growth
and increased usefulness. lis excellent
location makes it easily accessible from
every direction. The electric railway
has brought Waukesha practically into
the suburbs of Milwaukee. The new
buildings and equipment, as well as the
additions to the scope of the studies
have helped to bring Carroll into wide
notice, and the number of students has
doubled in the last three years. Two
new departments recently established
are the sociological and educational
departments. Rev. DR.. A. A. Kiehle
formerly of Milwaukee, being at the
head of the former and Prof. A. w.
Trettin, formerly of Oshkosh, in charge
of The latter. The outlook now is that
President w. o. Carrier will remain,
Notwithstanding the efforts to draw him
elsewhere. The college has made a
commendable record in athletic sports,
doing well in football and claiming this
year the football championship of the

RESIGNED

AT the next meeting of the library
board the resignation of Miss Nellie
Silverthorn as librarian will be consid-
cred. Miss Silverthorn has handed in
her resignation, to take effect as soon
as her successor is chosen. For ten
years or more she has held the position
of Librarian and has been at the post of
duty every day, with the exception of
once, when she made short visit in
Europe. She desires to get away from
the monotony and humdrum of looking
after books, and instead ofaccepting her
resignation the board will no doubt
grant her long vacation.
The position of librarian carries with
it more duties than the average person
imagines. 1t requires training and
experience to catalogue books and take
care of them in proper shape and it
would be difficult to find one in the city
who can fill the position as satisfactor
lily as does Miss Silvefthorn.

a RADICAL DEPARTURE.

The most popular illustrated weeklies
and monthlies are produced at enor-
nous cost. Competition for the work
of the leading authors and illustrators
has established scale of expense that
is almost prohibitiSe.
Yet in addition to its many attractive
features The CHICAGO SUNDAY RECORD
HERALD furnishes its readers with a
Sunday magazine which compares
fayorably with the independent perio-
ideals in every way and has some merits
peculiar to itself The most famous
writer's and illustrators contribute to it..
Fine paper and press work and handy
size make it pleasure to read this en-
pertaining publication which marks a
radical departure in Sunday journalism

A BACKWARD SPRING.

Next Saturday will be June 1st and
while the snow is gone from our streets
it is yet as cold as in March, We are
fully month behind our usual springs.
There is not leaf on our trees; it will
be several weeks land the weather must
be very favorable) before lilacs are in
blossom; grass on the lawns is not up
high enough to neeessitate the first cut
and all kinds of garden truck hes hard
IL made arstart. Owing TO there being
no feed for horses and cattle, land,
usually, at this time there is great
plenty hay is bringing fabulous prices.
Since Saturday the wind has been in
the north and Sunday afternoon there
was quite a snow fall Without doubt
this is the most backward spring this
section has ever experienced. Let US
hope that there will be enough warm
weather during the summer and fall to
even mp things.

LINE is A SUCCESS.

The street railway company's direc-
tors have decided upon selling six
tickets for 25c and hereafter cars will
be run regularly to and from Schofield
at intervals OF fifteen minutes. 30 far
the line has been a great success ard if
the present rate of business keeps up
the enterprise ought to pay a dividend
the first year, but the plan is to give
the public service no matter at what
cost. Regular service commenced Sat
urday afternoon and since that time
nearly every car has been crowded.
Saturday night cars were run to Scho-
and the promoters of a dance in that
village protited thereby. All day Sun
day the cars were damned with people.
People lined Third street awaiting an
opportunity to get ride. Every girl
who had a fellow reminded the latter
that he might dispense with the cost of
buying ice cream for her that day. and
instead give her a ride on the cars.
All DAY yesterday and last night, cars
hauled hundreds of people to the circus
grounds and on Memorial day it is ex--
pected the company will do another
large business.
Up to the present it has not been de-
cided when the line will be continued
up Third street to connect with that
part of the track completed in the
northern section of the city. Crossing
rails have not arrived yet for the Wash
ington street crossing with the C.. & N.
w. Ry. Co.'S tracks. By the time they
have arrived it is expected the line to
the park and fair grounds will be com
pleted, when cars will be run back and
forth between both sides of the river.
