Report of DISTRICT a. Attorney on Lincoln
To the County Board of Supervisors:
[ have looked up the appeal of the
freeholders, from the decision of the
voters of the Town of Lincoln, in re-
fus1ng to repair bridge, and in my
opinion under the case of State VS.. Sex
ton, 1874 Wisconsin, 352, the petition or
appeal is fatally defective in that the
Notice of Appeal does not state from
what meeting of the town the appeal
was taken from, and further, Section
1888 r. S. provides that the county
board can only act on such an appeal
at a regular meeting" of the board.
Then, also, as | understand from the
chairman of the town of Lincoln, the
voters and the town have never refused
to repair, this bridge, Jut have refused
to rebuild the same, and before this
board should incur the expense, I would
suggest that those appealing serve a
new appeal on the county board, and
attach thereto a certified copy Of the
motion or resolution, denying or refus-
ing to repair, acted ON at the town
meeting. Chas. E. Briere.
On motion the report was accepted.

appropriation to the Central Wisconsin

THE LITTLE FISH
Do GOOD WORK

Matters in connection with the
legal department of the Board of
Health are quiet at present, but there
may be some developments soon in
connection with the affairs of some
Chinese rice planters who are not
complying with the rules.
The rice planters have been told
several times that they should either
keep top minnows in their fields or
else have no water at all. 1t appears
that many of the rice planters have
introduced the small FISH, and that the
mosquito larvae have disappeared rap
idly.
Deputy Attorney General Lymer
stated this morning that if the rice
planters who are not complying with
the regulations do not at once re-
move the nuisance that exists there
will be law proceedings in few days.

a recent arrival is a buck and wing
dancer of some repute and will wig
gle his feet at the Biiou for the first
time. The Gillian and Williams Four,
a quartet of clever Colored entertain
ers, will give an entire change to-
night and introduce new songs, dances
and witticisms. Schoen, Trip and
Schoen will divide their act, with
Schoen and Schoen doing a sketch,
while the clown member of the trio
will be seen in acrobatic stunts of a
comical nature.
Hughes and Prior, the headliners
will appear in an entirely new act
They are very clever jugglers, be
sides being good acrobats. Theil
head balancing stunts are very inter
esting. This team is well worth see
ing.
Vaudeville and Pictures at Empire
! The popular Empire theater is doing
very large business, with the col
ored vaudevillians as the principal at
traction. Jones, Grant and De Hearde
appear in songs and dances, while
lien Wise and Katie Milton are doinG
sketch work nightly in which they IN
troduce popular songs. They are talk
ing well in this line of work. The
pictures for tonight are all of ligh
and interesting nature and an attrac

kaa Troupe at Bijou.
The last occasion on which the
Kaai troubadours appeared in this
city, at the Opera House, there was
not sufficient room to accommodate
the crowd that wanted to hear these
famous singers. On account of an
other attraction at that place of
amusement, when the Cleveland tour
lists arrive on the 18th, Mr.. Kaai has
selected the next largest place in the
city, the Bijou, for his Might in Ha-
wall" to be given especially for those
tourists and for the public in general
1t is not a settled fact that even the
Bijou will have seating capacity suffi-
cient to hold all who care to attend
The program will be changed from
that given last month and the songs
will be of a character that tells of
Hawaii as the tourist would hear the
story. The folk dances will be given
by the same company that appeared
at the last concert and the scenery
will be the same. The price of adj
mission has been fixed low enough to
fill two houses the size of the Biiou
for few persons can reject an oppor-
tunity to hear the sweet Hawaiian
songs when rendered by such famous
musicians as Mr.. Kaai has surround
ed himself with.
Norwood Sustans Reputation.
Notwithstanding the stormy wealth
err Honolulu theatergoers again paid
tribute to the mysterious power of
Norwood by packing the Orpheum to
the doors last night The hypnotic
circus is surely a great antidote for
melancholia and doubtless will be re-
peated during his engagement for the
benefit of the sad ones who were UNI
fortunate enough to miss its initial
presentation.
His second test of thought trans
ference proved to be as interesting
and convincing as that shown the first
night
In the test last night a different sub
iect was used--his lady pianist, who,
blindfolded and with back to the au-
dience, rendered selections suggested
by the audience which were trans
mitted to her by wireless waves or
whatever it is Prof. Norwood uses.
Those who witnessed the spanish
waltz Monday night will not want to
miss the hypnotic serenade tonight in
which some young men will be put in
trance and made to believe they are
deeply in love and to pour out their
hearts yearnings in bursts of melody
Norwood is one of the few perform
ers who lives up to his advertisements
particularly the line that says sixty
laughs a minute" 1t is rather one
continuous laugh from start to finish
