CAUGHT IN THE ACT
Officer Walsh Found Burglar
 Hidden Under Pool Table.

About 8 o'clock this morning as Officer James E. Walsh was trying the doors of business houses on Scoyill street he found the rear door of Loucks and Weiezbuck's saloon open. He looked in and saw the place was dimly lighted. There was a few bot ties of whiSkey on the bar with some cigars and small things and blue handkerchief full of nickels and sil- yer.
 Then he looked around the place, fully on his guard for attack, for he surmised that someone was on the premises. Under a pool table he thought he saw something large. With his revolver drawn ready for at tack he approached the pool table and he was not disappointed when he came upon a large man huddled up in evident fright. Later at the police sta tion the man said his name was Harry Bigel. He explained how he came to be in the saloon saying he hid in an ante room while the place was being closed up for the night. He made no resistance and when searched at the police station roll of $60 was found on him.
 Later one Julian Gunkusky was ar rested and both are charged with burglary, Gunkusky being supposed to have acted as sentinel for Bigel. The case was not ready for trial in the city court to-day and it was put over to tomorrow.

Should Bachelors be
 Taxed.

That's the subject which we see by the newspapers was very inter esting debate a few evenings ago, and the hall wasn't large enough to accommodate half the numbers of people who wished to hear and see the old gray headed 'baches' get it put all over them" Of course the poor old bachelors lost after a recon- nossance by the affirmative into every year from the year one to date. But if the bachelors were rep rsented by three "hen pecked" hus- bands there would have been diff ferent, delightful decision, for this ad man doesn't think two-thirds of the poor unfortunate bachelors real ly know what they are missing, but we imagine that a few 'hen pecked mollycoddles" could very much, en- tighten that hallful. Of course these are only our thoughts. Well, be that as it may, the affirmative were more than generous in their de- mands because we think $50 per year is O. K; in fact, that wouldn t stir some of them. Yes, sirree. there are some husbands who are compelled to drink cheap, trashy tea and coffee, and their hard earned cash paid for it, when their wives could just as well call at our store and get the nice tasting kind for the same price. But no. she want ed trading stamps or some other bargain. But remember, if you want the good kind call at

cAsHroN HAs HOT MORNING FIRE
Mayor Chase of Viroqua Loses Machine
Shop Building.

The largest and hottest fire ever wit
messed in Cashton occurred at an early
hour Wednesday morning, when the
Cashton planning mill and all its con-
tents were destroyed. The mill ouild-
ing and dry kiln were the property OF
Frank A. Chase of Viroqua, and as
near as we can fird out had 10 insur-
ance on it, the loss being estimated at
about 81 900.
The machinery which included a lath
machine, engine, two planers, hatcher,
saw rigs, and numerous other costly
machines were the property of the pro-
prietor Henry Hall. who had, we are
informed, $500 insurance. which will go
to satisfy a mortgage of that amount,
thus the loss to Mr.. Hall of about
81, 500 is reported
Andrew Bakken, the cabinet maker,
lost all his tools, valued at nearly $40
Fine dressed lumber valued at $500, the
property of Frank Rudolph, was con
sumed A great many small losses oc-
cured to people who had lumber. fur
niture and other things in the mill.
Henry Hall is a hard working man
with large family and his entire loss
of this property is teit keenlv by him
and his family as it leaves them in a
tight place. A subscription paper is
being circulated for Mr. Hall and it il
likely that good amount will be given
him to offset part this loss.
1t is not likely that the institution
will be rebuilt, for it takes too much
capital nowadays to make the invest
ment a paying one. -Cashtol Record.

WAR AMONG TIE NOBLE REDS
Big Indians Use Knives and Guns on
Each Other.

The De Soto Argus of last week re-
ports an outbreak of hostility among
the Redmen at Genoa, Monday after
noon, December 21, creating consider
able excitement and some little blood
shed. George Brown, son of Jim
Brown of this vicinity, and his brother.
in-law, Grizzly Bear, became engaged
in fight, in which the former received
an ugly knife wound just over the
heart, whereupon he fired three charges
from a shot gun directly at his oppon-
ent, one of which charges took effect in
Grizzly Bears left arm and neck, max
ing terribly nasty wound. DR.. Stew
ems of this place was summoned imme
diately and dressed the wounded war
riors' wounds, and to the best of his
belief the doctor is of the opinion that
Brown was justified in shooting in self
defense. There is a possibly that the
Bear may not recover.

as there is yet much of the leaf that

Edgerton Tobacco Reporter: AS the
tobacco handling season progresses it
has been discovered that sounder crop
than the present one was never put
over the tables, so far as leaf imper-
fections are concerned. There is prac-
tically no shed burn, stem rot OF broken
leaves to be removed in the asserting
About all the work necessary in pre-
pairing a binder crop for the cases is to
grade into the different lengths and tie
up the hands. Warehouse work there
lore will go forward very rapidly and
he table help will be able to make ex-
ceedingly good wages, as experts hand
lers have no difficulty in getting out
800 pounds or such matter per day
Warehouse handling under such condi-
tons becomes much more simphfied
and the usual fIcihties are able to care
for larger sized packing in the given
time. The great disappointment to tht
packers cones from the proportion OF
short sizes which the crop yields We
learn that close to 40 per cent of the
Vernon county crop runs to 8 A s or
under and in the southern sections a
similar percentage of AS and under
due largely to dry growing season.
