years ago and recently sold his
property for $4,000, the increase in
wealth coming from the advance in
real estate. He has placed his money
in trust company which pays six

the climate of that country is de-
lightful. "Wisconsin for me-" said
Mr.. Horstman, as he brought down a

BARABOO RIVER
On A RAMPAG
sFrom Saturdays Dai1y.)

The Baraboo river is the biggest
thing in the Baraboo valley these days.
The sudden downpour of water has
caused much uneasiness and in some
places loss of property.
The Alderman Hardware u Imple-
ment company found the water
getting into the lower part of
the building and it was necessary
to move the stock to high land.
The road leading from Ableman to
the iron mine in the town of Freedom
was covered with water to the depth
of four feet. Some time ago the grade
was raised and it was thought to be
above high water mark.
The bridge near Wyeville has gone
out and the trains which usually go
over the new line are now running
through Baraboo.
At Reedsburg the water was up to
the girders of the railroad bridge. The
water rose so high that it was neces-
sary to protect the wooden mill with a
Golfer dam work. For time it YVES
feared the mill might 60.
When it was raining at Baraboo on
Friday there was blizzard at Winona.
No rain fell at Madison during the
day although the rain on Thursday
night was heavy.
Friday the family of Frank Keyser
just south of the linen mill, found the
residence was on an island and with
out a boat it was difficult to escape.
The water was over the highway and
the outlook was serious. A gun was
fired which brought relief party in
boats.
A telephone message from the home
of l.. FL. Palmer, River Dale farm in
Greenfield, says the water is the high
est in many years. Boating is popular
on the Johnson fats and the water is
up to the Langdon barn.

Quoted by Rev. Clifford of Reedsburg'
The remains were laid to rest in the
Butterfeld cemetery beside those OF
her daughter, Myrtle, who passed
away less than year ago. Mrs. Du
Bots was former resident Of this
place and was superintendent of the
Free Methodist Sunday school fol
some time. She was an earnest
Christian worker in the church and
Missionary society. Her kind and
cheerful ways won for her a host Of
friends who lament her untimely
death and extend their heartfelt sym
patty to the bereaved family.

(From TUESDAYS Daily

L. A. Johnson of Greenfield says
the Baraboo has not been as high in
sixty years. The Johnson family has
been anchored on the bank of the
stream in Greenfield for Long time
and he says the present escapade
comes as near to the days of Noah as
anything recorded in the Johnson
annals.
The sudden rise of the water was
death to poultry. Frank Keyser, who
resides near the linen mill, found his
birds drowned while on the roost. At
the homes of Grant Francisco, Dave
Ashley and Mrs. F. ,Downey at
the Lower Narrows of the stream,
the situation was more serious. When
they aWoke in the morning they found
their cattle and horses with water up
to their bodies and the river flowing
through the chicken houses. At the
Ashley home the roof was knocked
from the chicken coop and when the
birds attempted TO fly to the nearest
land the most of them went into the
water and drowned. Mr.. Ashley lost
about twenty. Mrs. Downey and son
moved from the p. II. Crossman home
on the Garfield hill recently to the
Whitman farm at the Lower Mar
rows and when they awoke in the
morning they thought possibly some
kind spirit had transferred them tc
Venice in other water habitat. Some
of their neighbors made their first
calls in boats and to the Downeys
there is nothing SO delightfully."- pleasant
as the Garfield hill. H. H. Porter
and others lent first assistance by
means of boat to the families now
residing where they think there il
enough water to last all summer.
