In fast and well played game Sun
day at the lake the Sluggers defeated
the fast Dane team by the score of to

and hit the ball hard, but the fielding

Until two men were out in the ninth
inning, not visitor had reached

ProgreSSiOeS

Spring Green, Wis, aug, 10 1912.
To the Editor: | am in receipt of
the "Primary Pamphlet issued by
Secretary James A. Frear. Now the
question comes; do the candidates who
appear on the list as Republicans,
claim many good principles and par
ticularly are they progressives. Now
this word progressive has var
ious meanings and can be con-
strewed to suit the candidate. The
question is right here; do the candi-
dates who ask for the Republican
vote and claim to be Republicans,
support our National ticket which
has the name of William Ell. Taft
at the head of the ticket. / think that
no candidate has right to come
before the people as a Republican
candidate unless he does.

(From Tuesdays Daily.)

Louis Gerou and Bert Manor made a
catch at Devils lake last night which
puzzled many of the campers and
guests at that place. Some of the
old fishermen were unable to state the
name of the supposed fish. When
they arrived in Baraboo they learned
that it was an eelpout. 1t weighed
over eight pounds and many of the
old sportsmen of this vicinity say
that it is the first they ever knew to
be caught at Devils lake. The eelpout
usually inhablts extremely deep
water and this was caught at the
north end of Devils lake where the
water is comparatively shallow. They
are good to eat.

OFF FOR WASHINGTON
Federal Officers Take Insane Prisoners
to Government Asylum

One of the queerest private carloads
of people that ever left Kansas pulled
out for Washington this afternoon;
seven desperate cases of insanity are
being transferred from the Leaven-
worth penitentiary to the government
hospital for the insane, and are ac-
companied by two small boys convict
ed of robbing the rural delivery and
en- rSute for the reform school in the
District of Columbia The expedition
is in charge of United States Marshal
John r. Harrison
The foremost figure of the party is
Assistant District Attorney Charles S.
Briggs of Usage, who volunteered to
take charge of one of the small boys
on the trip The boy is "about as big
as bar of soap after family wash
ing according to a federal official
but he stole two letters from a rural
delivery box and he must go to the
federal reform school. And since he
must go, it is cheaper to have one
guard than a company from Fort
Leavenworth to keep him in custody.
The small boy, Ralph Powell, COM
mitted the heinous crime of extracting
a couple of letters from a rural de-
livery box; he is indeed a desperate.
He and Sim Hastings, II years old,
plead guilty at the Fort Scott term
of court last month, and were
sentenced to three years in the Ma
tionaI Reform school.
The insane patients, seven in num-
Der, are a wild lot. Four of them,
murderers, were life term prisoners.
The government report states that
each has either "homicida1 or suicidal
tendencies One, burly negro, has
tried several times to end his life.
Another is a ten-year man, convicted
of highway robbery; several of them
have attempted suicide at various
10
confined in the penitentiary. They are
apparently hopeless cases, but will be
returned to the federal pen in case
they recover.

GRIGGS ON THE STAND
Topeka Man Testifies in Suit Against
Harvester Trust.

ST. Louis, Dec. 3.-B. A. McAleer of
Oklahoma City, resumed the stand on
cross-examination when the govern
ment suit to dissolve. the International
ond day here, this morning. He testf-
fed he did not believe an Independent
company could compete with the Inter
national, because it could not obtain
agents.
John H Bowler, of Sioux Falls, S. D.,
former warden of the South Dakota
prison, was ready to take the stand in
reply to the statement made yesterday
by Michael H. Lamb, that Lamb had
given him $500 to defeat a bill author
izing prison made Irvine, but neither
the government nor the harvester COM
pany attorneys expressed desire to
have him testify. Bowler admits re-
ceiving the money, but says it was used
in defraying the expenses of the legis-
lative committee of the State Imple-
ment- Dealers association.
P. G. Griggs, Of Topeka, KAN for
merly a retail implement dealer, tes-
titled that in 1902 Cyrus H. Mccormick
told the implement dealers at a meet
ing at Kansas City that the Inter-.
national Harvester company controlled
80 per cent of the business and hoped
to obtain control of the other 10 per
cent. Griggs was agent for the Cham
pion and Walter A. Wood lines. He
quit the Champion line because of a
contract which would have held him
to that company and took up the d.
NJ Osborne line which advertised it
was independent. Later he received
word from the Internationals secre-
tary at Topeka that if he did not
give up handling the Wood machines
the Osborne agency would be taken
away from him. He refused to do this
at first he testified but at the end OF
the season he was forced to give up
the Wood agency.

DR.. Hartman Recalls Cures
Made BY Old Time Pe-ru-na

/ this awful emergency, that 1 replied:
Sir, you and I are now in the vigor
| of life; it may happen that this lazy
will live to see us buried
After a hasty examination of the
case I prescribed Pe-ru-na to be taken
every hour, and if she was not better
| in the morning to let me know.
1t was two weeks before 1 again
heard from the case, when the hus-
| band entered my office, radiant with
joy, and. not waiting for the usual
salutations, exclaimed:
Doctor, my wife is WE'LL"
''Oh, no, you mean she is better
1 replied. But the enthusiastic hus-
band insisted that his wife was well
and the heartiest eater at the table. -
The fact was that, while she had
made astonishing Improvement she
was obliged to continue the use of
Pe-ru-na many months. In less than
a year she was entirely well, and has
remained so since, and her treatment
from the beginning to the end was
Pe-ru-na and nothing else. To have
seen her at the time of the first viist
it would have been impossible to be-
lieve that any medicine or other
earthly power could have saved her.
This case is no more unusual or
that my list contains, not only OF dis
eases of the lungs, but of all mucous
surfaces.
Cases of dyspepsia; diarrhea and
dysentery which have withstood all
other treatment, have yielded at once
by the use of Pe-ru-na.
Numerous cases of Bright's disease
of the kidneys, acute catarrh and
rheumatism, female diseases, that had
been treated locally for years, were
instantly relieved and finally recov-
cred by Pe-ru-na. In short, every
disease affecting any mucous mem
brane of the body that has not already
gone beyond all earthly help, fire.
quently makes astonishing recovery.
AS a general tonic and appetizer
Pe-ru-na has no superior. 1t is GER
tain remedy for WORKOUT or tired-out
human nature Cases of nervous
prostration, loss of vitality and sleep
lessness are all treated by Pe-ru-na
with such undertaking success that
wherever it is used it ranks as the
greatest tonic known.
In future articles I will recite other
cases of similar interest. In doing
so I shall not allow the slightest
exaggeration or fiction to mar the
realism which the simple facts alone
give to any narrative of this kind.
