THE NEW ENGINES
HAVE ARRIVED At
THE ROUNDHOUSE

The three big new engines arrived in
Baraboo today and are at the round
house. One is freight of eight drive
wheels and weighing in total 191 tons
The other two'are for passenger runs.
They have six drive wheels, larger in
circumference than those of the freight
engine. These weigh in total 1876 tons.
The mechanism for the use of the en-
gineer is all very handy and the whole
affair is made especially for conven-
ience and power. The freight engines
are said to have power of hauling 40
per cent more freight than the ones
now in use.
These monsters of railroad advance
ment will increase in number and
they will be assigned to run along
with the other engines.

Justice Assaulted.

While sitting in his office in Portage,
Justice w. C. Bunker was assaulted by
some unknown person. He was found
unconscious by his son-in-law, J. Il.
Hardie. The weapon used was an iron
pipe and it is supposed that some
enemy committed the act. One Italian
who had been once sentenced by the
venerable Justice has been arrested.
Later it was decided that robbery
was the motive.

HACKETT FAMILY REUNION
The Twenty-Eighth Annual Assem-
bly, of Members From
Many Places

The 2Sth annual reunion of theHack-
ett family was celebrated in the G. A.
r. hall at North Freedom on Thanks
giving day. There were about fifty
members of the family present, that be-
ing the smallest number at like event
for many years. Two of the elder
members of the family being in
feeble health, one seriously, was
largely accountable for the lighter at
tendance, and owing to the demise of
the late w. o. Hackett, the program
and entertainment were not planned
so extensively.
A sumptuous dinner was served and
during the afternoon an excellent pro-
gram, though largely impromptu, was
given. A Thanksgiving prayer was
offered by George Rackett, ST., of
Minnesota. Those who rendered vocal
numbers were: Mrs. S. j. Hackett,
Harold and Durlin Hackett. The
Hacketts, assisted by j. Reeves, (harp-
ist) and Charles Warn, (violinistl
! furnished several selections which were
much enjoyed.
The special numbers rendered by
Messrs. Reeves and Warn were enter
tanning and words poorly express the
appreciation of the gathering.
Those who rendered recitations were;
Teckla Hackett, Clara Hackett, Olive
Cole, Ralph Hackett, Lloyd Hackett,
Jessie Hackett and Densie Carpenter.
Short speeches were made by Pres.
Joel Hackett, Geo. Hackett, Sr., Glen
Cole, s. J. Hackett and Geo. Hackett.
Interesting letters were read from
Frank Hackett of Lamont, Iowa, and
P. T. Hackett of Bloomer, Wis. Greet
ings were also received from other
members of the family from distant
places.
The interest in the reunion was as
great as ever and the prevailing fellow
ship commends such institutions.
Those present from a distance were:
George Hackett, Money Creek, Mimi;
Mrs. Frank Hackett, Lamont, Iowa;
Emmett Gemmill, Idaho; Louis Gem
mill, Washington. The evening pro-
gram was dispensed with this year.
Officers for the ensuing year were
elected as follows:
