A farmer, whose first name is Vic
tor and who resides about nine miles
south Of Nekoosa, endaevored to
climb a telephone pole on Second
avenue with a team of horses Tues
day afternoon. Victor had been in
the city all day and was taking home
a fair sized load of Grand Rapids
best brew. No one knows just what
started the performance but when
the noise began, it was discovered
that the team had run into a tel
ephone pole and there was a horse
on either side of the pole and the
driver being in a rather muddled state
Of mind was trying to make the
horses come ahead without unhar-
Messing them. Amidst a pryotechnic
display of language and much foot
work, four other farmers We're at
tracted to the scene For a time it
looked very much like a small edi-
t on of a stock fair at one of the
market squares. With the assis-
lance of the other men the horses
were backed away from the telephone
pole, a broken whiffle tree nailed to-
gether and the owner started on his
hOmeward journey again.
