SITE SELECTED FOR THE
NUMBER z pump HOUSE

The board of public works yesterday
afternoon visited the location of the
new water works on the city property
i'm West Hancock, for the purpose Of
selecting a site for the pump house
which is to contain the new electric
pump recently ordered for the No ?
system. A place was picked out sit
uated near to the spur track of the
Hancock Mining company, which
crosses the tract, and conveniently sit
uated for handling materials and ma
chinery. only small building will be
required, with a floor space of about
twelve by fourteen feet, 5he electric
pump not taking up much room, so
that building of the dimensions Civ
en- will be ample to accommodate 1t
and the necessary switchboards, mo-
tors, etc, to operate ii. The building
will not be an elaborate one, all that
is considered necessary being a frame
structure, with galvanized iron
sheathing on the outside to render It
safe from catching fire from sparks or
otherwise, and It will have concrete
foundation for the pump.
The members of the board also Wis
tied the No. 1 pumping station on the
lake shore to look over the premises
with a view to making general repairs
which were asked for by Engineer
Rentenbach at the last meeting of the
board Of public works. These repairs
will be recommended to be made, when
the board holds its next meeting
which will be on Monday evening
April II.

Coat Too Much Like Heather.

The coat of a red setter normally
stands out fairly clearly against
heather of the ordinary hue; when,
however, it gets soaked with rain it
darkens very much and blends very
closely with the heather. The Cor.
don settlers are, perhaps, the worst
in this regard of assimilating with the
color of heather, and so being liable
to get a charge of shot.-Country

HIGH SCHOOL DEFEATS GILLETT.

Some brief time ago our sister High |
School, Gillett challenged us to an In
terscholastic Debate, submitting to US
the following question:
Resolved, "That Woman Should have
an equal right with Man to Vote"
The team representing the Wabeno
High School consisted of H. Hemsnway,
Hazel Russell and John Dickinson and
chose the Affirmative.
Gillett had defeated all corners and
we were predistined as we'll as predict
ed to be very appropriate subjects to
cap the climax of their long string of
triumphs.
Gillett turned out by the score, filled
the City Hall to its utmost capacity,
sang their school songs with the great
est of glee, shouted with a vengeance
and filled the air with laundering ap-
pause after ea: III speaker was through
and until the Chairman raped for or
der. We couldn't get shout in edge
ways but for the sake OF all concerned
we're glad their jollity was filled to
brim in the early stages of the game
for we had our inning for several min
utes after the Judges announced their
decision and stated Wabeno had won.
Homer Hemenway opened the De-
bate in clear, concise and logical
manner. His enunciation was near the
perfect mark and his submitted prop
ositions were two much for those on
the Negative side.
Eva Bergman opened for Gillett and
altho we'll poised seemed slightly ill at
ease.
Hazel Russell quickly followed and
her voice rang out true blue" to the
cause she so firmly believes and so
steadfastly upholds. Hazel was at her
best and not one of her statements was
proven wrong by the Negative team.
Eugene Schaal, witty and trimming
over made good clean debate.
John Dickinson shattered many of
the statements made by the previous
Gillett speakers and together with his
we'll outlined material, self control I'M
der fire, and his touching as we'll as eff
fective arguments set the judges to
thinking the right way.
George Schaal finished the regular
debate by giving in detail various rea-
sons for his position.
Eugene Schaal closed for Gillett aid
put forth a good summary but his vain
efforts were put to flight when H.
Hemenway who had the closing rebuff
tai showed the Negative team as a
whole were in error relative to several
statements. Cool and collected, he
tore to shreds arguments that on the
surface seemed convincing and after
he finished it was all over but the

ARE YOU A BOOSTER.

The following paragraphs are going
the rounds of the newspapers and we
commend them to Wabeno folks:
If you owe your home town any duty
perform it. Too many things go by
because one fails to do duty he really
owes and the profit that would other
wise accrue to the whole of the COM
munity fails A little effort put for
ward every now and then often brings
about results the like of which we are
not looking for. And all of us owe
some duty no matter how small our
sphere may be.
Perhaps you think the town will go
along all right without any of your
help aud you'll profit by being leach.
Not so. Folks won't be long in finding
you out and what you save by being
niggardly toward town building will be
lost to you in the profits of your bust
ness at the end of the year. People
don't like leeoh in any manner of
form and sooner or later they will
learn to pass you with very little no
tice. Wake up! Be booster even if
it does cost you paltry sum now and
then.

soPERTON WINS SECOND GAME.

The Soperton Team journeyed over
to the County seat Sunday and took
the Crandonites into camp by a score
of g. s, thereby winning two straight
fran that bunch of ball tossers
The homo boys played very consist
ent ball up to the I'll: inning, holding
the Crandon team down to l score but
three errors, coupled with a hit by
Pierce, Melted the Crendonites runs
in that inning. In the Sth two more
errors cost the Soperton boys two runs.
In the 9th the home team buckled
down and put the nett three out in
short order, thereby cinching the sec
ond game of the season.

STOLEN MONEY RECOVERED.

By means of map taken from a
prisoner at the Marinette county Jail
whose term had expired the missing
$643 which was stolhn from F. j. Cal
ser, a cook in a Wabeno lumber camp,
and for which Martin Jeranek was sent
to the Green Bay reformatory for
three years, was recovered yesterday.
The money was found by Adam Golen,
who was arrested with Jeranek and
Gaiser, the victim of the robbery.
With the recovery of the money the
sheriff's force has unravelled one of the
most perplexing problems in years.
Jeranek pleaded guilty to the robbery
but absolutely refused to tall where he
had hidden the money. He was senten-
ced to three years in the Green Bay
reformatory, but even after that, when
pressure was brought to bear on him,
he maintained sphinx-like silsnce re-
garding the whereabouts of the loot.
Sheriff Smith has kept close eye on
all prisoners whose terms expired, hop
;np to find some clew that would lead
him to the money. His efforts were
rewarded when prisoner who left the
iail Wednesday was found to have
map on his person. 1t was given to
Golen, who had been discharged, and
together with Gaiser, he went to Wa
beno to search for the money. Yester-
day word was received at the jail that
the loot had been found in can buried
under tree, seven miles from the
camp where it was stolen.
One twenty dollar bill was missing,
leaving 1928. The odd amount Gaiser
presented to Golen for his efforts IN
recovering the money. AS Golen
spent two months in Jail while waiting
for the May term of court to open, the
balm is slightly small.
1t is thought that Jeranek had COM
panion whom he wanted to send the
map to and whom he wanted to get
the money He was taken to the re-
formatory without being Informed OF
the finding of the swag.-Menomlnee

The Growth Of Insanity.

Statistics serve to show a steady
increase in the number of the insane.
The most reliable statistics known to
us, those taken In Massachusetts,,
show that in that state the number
of insane In the asylums is increasing
from $50 to 500 a year, which is a
much larger proportionate increase
than that Of the sane population. Re
ports from other states show similar
results. Some sf the more generally
accepted causes of the increase of in
sanity are given as follows: The over
tension of modern life. brought on
by the keen struggle for life; the con-
gestion and excitement of city life,
and the fact that insanity is becoming
more and more an incursble disease.
