Another Talk with Horsenaen.

Lest you forget, I'll tell you why
| think "Castel' will take your eye
Because the big black imported
stallion Castcl (52O26) is not only
the proper type Of a draft horse,
but he is better bred than most
horses you have seen. Besides be-
ing a snowy horse, he is descended
from a long line of prize winners,
famous in France, where life and
action in the sire is indispensable,
indicating plenty Of stamina to go
the route.
He is the ideal horse, showing
every point that is taken in the
Judging of horses. Wide between
the eyes, indicating that he has the
brain capacity. A very fine dispo-
.sition, being free and active but very
quiet and intelligent.
He is a big boned horse, and
has the best Of feet and legs,
showing particularly strength be-
low the knee, where the native
mare is usually weak. He is an
easy keeper, but young, strong and
perfectly sound.
His colts have shown uniformity,
being nice, big boned and active,
which proves him a strong breeder.
They inherit his wonderful disposi-
tion, insuring plenty Of life with
gentleness and intelligence and to
marked degree show his strong
individuality.
His services are the cheapest in
the country, based on his value OF
the prospective value of his pro
duce.
Let me show him to you and tell
you more abouthim. He will stand

Levi Kittilsen Drops Dead.

Levi kittllsen, supervisor from the
first ward of Stoughton, was found lying
by the pump near his Lake Kegonsa cot
tage Monday evening by j. NJ. Hubbard
who is camping at Quam's Park, and the
indications we're that Mr.. Kittilsen had
beed dead several hours. 1t is generally
believed to have been heart failure.
Mr. Kittlesen went to the lake to do
some odd jobs about his place to put it
in readiness for moving up there about
the first of next month, and he was last
seen alive at half past eleven o'clock.
Mr.. Kittilsen's death probably occurred
shortly after noon. He had eaten his
dinner, smoked his pipe, and presum-
ably had gone over to his neighbor Dav-
id Utters we'll to get some fresh water,
as pail was standing near by contain
ing some water with which it is conject-
ured he intended to prime the pu mp.
Death was undoubtedly instantaneous.
Mr. Kittilsen was born in Nummedal,
Norway, July q, 1845, and came here
with his parents when boy OF eight.
He grew up in the town OF Perry, and
later located in the town of Christiana.
where he engaged in farming until 1859
when he moved to town, making his
home on the east side and building
comfortable residence there in 1893. He
held the Office of supervisor for his ward
and enjoyed the respect and high es-
TEEN OF his fellow citizens. Without be-
robust, he had been exceptionally eX-
empt from disease, and for man of 81
was 10 excellent health. He leaves a
wife and seven children -four daughters,
Mrs. A. E. Lien of Portland, n. D., So
phia, who at present is visiting with her,
Alma, who is taking training course
for nurses in Chicago, and Clara, at
home; and three sons, Carl, at Nome,
Alaska, Albert, until recently OF Tacoma,
Wash, and Christian, who works the old
homestead farm. Surviving him are
also one brother. Ole, and one sister,
Mrs. Lie, both of Norway.

The City's Bonded Debt.

One of the closing acts OF retiring city
clerk, Henry johnson, was to prepare a
statement showing the bonded indebted
ness of the city Of Edgerton on May lst
last. OF the original school house bonds
of $4,000 drawing per cent interest
but two remain unpaid, one of these due
July 10 is already provided for and the
last one OF $1,000 will be included in the
next tax roll.
OF S28.5O0 of water works bonds OF
$500 each drawing 6 per cent, S24,COO
remains yet outstanding. A monthly
payment of hydrant rentals of s19S.84
retires the bonds, principal and interest
at the end OF 30 years from their date OF
issue, or in 1922. The city has an option
of refunding the remaining issue in Aug
ust, 1909, when lower rate of interest
might be secured.
Sewer bonds to the amount of $4,000
at the rate of Az per cent, $1,000 due
each year after 1909, are outstanding
$4,000 OF water works extension bonds at
AZ per cent become due $1,000 annually
after 1918. This makes the total bonded
indebtedness of the city $4,000, on an
assessed valuation OF s13S7, 723.

Tobacco Notes

Geo. Rumrill of GAINESVILLE was caller
in this market Monday.
Frank S. Baines of GAINESVILLE looked
through samples OF local packer here
Tuesday.
The heavy winds couple OF days
early in the week are said to have done
some damage to the plant beds covered
by sand. The strong wind stripped the
sand and carried away and broke up the
plants as we'll.
What broad smile must pass over
the face of the tobacco grower to read in
the Milwaukee Free Press of Tuesday
that Farmers are setting out plants and
the prospects indicate large and early
1907 crop" My! how some one must
have strung that fresh reporter!
James S. Earle of Porter informs US
that be has as ine show of tobacco
plants as he ever saw at this time of the
year. The plants are not only thick on
the beds but many of them have four
leaves and are plenty forward, even
under most adverse weather conditions.
He attributes his success to the fact that
his beds were covered with marsh hay
and by keeping the hay loosely shaken
so that plenty of air could reach the
plants they have made remarkable pro-
gress This covering has also furnished
better protection from the heavy frosts
than the canvas coverings or sand.

Still Another Suspicious Fire.

Smoke seen issuing from the hayloft
of ?. M. Ellingson's barn, located in the
rear OF his residence, at $50 o'clock Fri
day evening was the cause of an alarm
being sent in 10 hurried call of the fire
department. Before hose could be laid
from nearby hydrant, the whole inter
ior OF the east end over the stable
seemed mass of flames, while dense
crevlce of the structure. The building
was covered with steel and for some
time it was difficult to get water upon
the blazing interior, but when two or
three streams we're directed upon the
seat of the fire it was soon extinguished.
One side of the building was used by
Mr.. Elllngson as storage for stoves and
surplus hardware stock, and though the
fire did not reach that part, the stock
was drenched by water and good deal
of damage done. An insurance of $4O0
on the building and $1,000 on stock was
carried by Mr. Ellingson. which will
probably cover the loss sustained That
the building was saved from complete
destruction is doubtless due to the fact
that it was covered with iron which con-
fined the flames. Both his residence
and an adjoining barn are located but a
few feet away and were thus fortunately
saved by this reason.
No fire or light was used about the
building by anyone connected with the
premises that evening and the conclu-
sion is almost irresistible that incen-
diarism was the cause of the fire. The
fact that the flames first broke out in
the hayloft also adds strength to this
theory This is the fifth fire that re-
Gently has been discovered in this city
| under suspicious circumstances and
lends color to quite general belief that
we have a firebug in our midst that
ought to be detected and punished.

From the Vengeance Of an
Angry Mob.
A SENSATIONAL CHASE.
Detectives Fought for the Life of For
gone and Their Own---Former Had
Stabbed Woman Who Re-
fused to Give Him Money.

New York, Sept. 0.--After scnsa-
tional chase and desperate fight with an
Italian desperate in the Bronx half a
dozen detectives were forced to fight for
his life and their own against repeated
assaults Of hundreds of Italian men and
women who sought to deal out summary
justice 10 the prisoner. He is Antonio
Forgone. He had stabbed Mrs. Lorenza
Nieholo in her little store in East One
Hundred and Fiftythird street, almost
severing her right ear, after she had
refused to give him 800.
AS Forgone dashed from the store,
Mrs. Gaetano Peppolo tried to block his
progress. a blow in the face knocked
her down and Forgone started on wild
run through the crowded street.
The blooa-stained knife, which be
waved as he sped through ithe crowd,
gave the fuatif a fairly clear path,
and number Of policemen and detec-
tives who had taken mp the chase were
being out-distaneed.
As a last resort they took possession
Of passing automobile and when the
machine was abreast Of the fleeing man
sprang out and attacked him. He fought
back, and one Of the detectives was laid
out unconscious before Forgone was sub
dued
For almost 20 minutes the officers
fought almost as desperately to protect
the prisoner from the mob, which want
ed TO deal out justice on the spot. For.
gone was finally landed in police sta
ton.
