Recent Campaign, May Get Inn

Madison Journal State Senator
John j. Blaine of Boscobel, who
directed the presidential primary
campaign of Senator LaFollette in
this state. is being groomed as the
next chairman of the republican state
central committee in case he does not
come out as candidate for congress
against Congressman John NJ. Nelson.
Senator Blaine has played an active
part in the progressive movement
since he became a member of the
state legislature. The manner in
which he handled Senator LaFollette S
presidential campaign in Wisconsin
caused much favorable comment, and
he will have strong support for the
state Craftsmanship if he wants the

Proficiency in Spelling

The spelling match was a form of
education and amusement that was
in high favor a generation ago, says
an exchange but the Friday afternoon
spelling curriculum has fallen into
disuse. Whether the children of this
generation are poorer spoilers than
their fathers we will not attempt to
judge. Fathers think SO, but fathers
are apt to recall the excellencies of
their school days and to forget their
deficiencies. Certainly this is true.
To encourage youngsters to spell.
pedagogical science has devised
nothing equal to the old fashioned
spelling match so filled with memories
dear to the hearts of those who
attended 'deestrict school, - nor can
one forget the excitement or thrill of
exuItation with which he would rush
into the house and loudly proclaim to
the folks at home that he had
spelled down" the school.

FOREIGNER GOT In BAD
TOOK SHOT AT CUBA CITY MAN
Italian Arrested on Serious Charge
Was Bound Over to the Cir
cult Court.

The sheriff's office at the court
house has been the scene of much
excitement on several occasions of
late.
On Monday the case Of State of
Wisconsin VS. Carl CARVING. an Italian
laborer working at Cuba City, charged
with shooting with intent to kill,
was heard before Justice Frank Calls
Ed Lowry appeared for the defendant
and Dist Atty. Geo. Clementson for
the state.
Mr.. Carvino. being unable to
converse readily in English an in
terpreter, Joe Dorgenson, of Platte
Vile, was subpoened to act in that
capacity.
Robert McCray, of Cuba City, was
was the complaining witness and four
other young zen, Lloyd Wiley.
Elmer Monet, Mr. Curtis and Newton
Varker all OF Cuba City were wit
nesses for the state.
The trouble which ensued and
finally brought forth this case occurred
in Fields pool and billiard hall at
Cuba City on the evening of April 4th
1912 at which time as near as can be
given from the evidence received, a
company of men were assembled some
playing. others smoking and talking.
Mr. McCray is supposed to have been
joking with CARVING and in some
way to have pushed him in such a
manner that he fell against pool
table. When ne got up he became
angry and is said to have threatened
McCray that he would fix him when
he went outside. CARVING left the
room before the others and when they
left Carvino came from behind a
building and shot at McCray although
the shot went wild and did not injure
him.
Upon the evidence Of the four
witnesses and McCray himself the
court declared that an offense had
been committed and gave the order
that the defendant should be bound
over to the October term of circuit
court under bond of $500
The defendant being unable to give
bond was placed in the county Jail to
await trial in October.

Fecht Henry Schwab owned farm
near Potosi and is supposed to have
made out deed for this farm to his
son. Later he is said to have made
an agreement with his SON in law
John Fecht in which Mr.. Fecht was
to move onto the farm and was to
keep the old gentleman Fl. Schwan
for certain fixed sum also to pay
1915 rental for the farm per year.
Some trouble occurred between
MessIs. Schwab and Fecht during the

son the opportunity to live thereon.

Miss Grace Hyde Has Narrow Escape.

George Hyde went to Mineral
Point Friday to ges his daughter
Grace who is suffering a nervous
break down as result of severe
scare which she had last week. On
Wednesday morning John Peter,
manager of the picture theatre there.
was walking down the street with
Miss Hyde who is the musician in
the theatre. AS they were passing
alongside d two story building owned
by Mrs. Jacka the cornice became
loosened and fell upon Mr.. Peter,
killing him instantly and crushing
him most horribly. The young lady
through some miracle escaped injury
but was completely scared. It is
very remarkable that the cornice
should have stood for nearly so years
and then have fallen so quickly but
as no one can give the reason for the
accident it will pass by with the
many mysteries still unsolved and
another life has been sacrificed by the
accident. The many friends of Miss
Hyde in Lancaster will hope for her
speedy recovery and must feel thank
full that she escaped the fate of the
one with her.
