isfied with the results.
Some Good Horses.
One would naturally think that, ow.
ing to the rain that prevails in this city
during few winter months, trainers of
fast steppers would remove south,
where the tracks are dry and hard.
This has not been the case, however,
this year. There are now horses
stabbed at Lone Oak track that have
gathered in the sheckels for their own
ers in many races.
Following is list Of several horses
and trainers:
A. B. Grant-Francis j., mark of

Perry Mauzey-Zom Mort, mark
2;16; B, & NJ, green gelding with
promising trotting ability; three and
a 4.year.old trotter, which are show
ing signs of success; Salem Boy, @

Teddy, neat little PAGER.

Henry Fletcher-McAlzo, by zolock,
mark of 2:29; Robin Hood, 3-year-old,

which their owner believes will be able
to raise the dust this season.
Guy Young also has several pretty
travellers and Peter Cook, Of Rickreall,
will soon arrive with five head for
training.
improvements Needed.
The horsemen believe that in the
event the State Board of Agriculture
will construct a drain inside Of the
track, Lone Oak can be made one of
the finest training and racing courses
on tho coast. On account of long usage |
without thorough improvements, the
track has become rather flat in the |
stretch, and water stands on it for an
unusual long time. As It is, there is
but an inch of mud on the track, and |
the horses can travel without much |
whether it rains or shines.
The horsemen are unable to boot
their animals, owing to the mud being
deep between the track and the barns.
They think a hard surface road or
should be laid from the barns
10 the paddock, and then to the track.
Under the present conditions, IL is i'm.
possible to place the boots on the
horses as the mud is so deep that the
,araphernalia is useless by the time the
horse reaches the track.

OF RICH FAMILY: DESTiTUTED
Found Deserted at Fond du Lac With
Her Three Small Children After
Fleeing England.

Fond du Lac-After fleeing from
England with her husband when he
was accused of murder and then being
deserted by him in Canada and forced
to care for herself and three children,
Mrs. P McCowon came to this city
and was found in a destitute condition
in a small house by Poor Commits
sioner Fred Duwe.
Mrs. McCowon, who says she is a
daughter Of wealthy English parents,
declares she eloped with a travelling
musician named Philip Parker. Her
husband was accused of numbering
one Of his companions and fed to Can
ada with his wife and child. His fam
lily took the name of McCowon. The
man soon deserted his wife to join a
circus troup.
Shortly afterward Mrs McCowon's
Oldest child was taken by authorities.
She then came to the United States
with her three other children. They
went to Woodstock, H., first and then
to Fort Atkinson, Wis, coming from
there to this city five weeks ago.
When found by the poor commits
sioner they were without food or fuel
and their clothing was nearly in rags.
A pile of old quilts served as a bed.
They utilized boxes for chairs and ia
bles. The family has been sent back
to Fort Atkinson and the case has
been reported to state officials.

Not Always TWO Sides.

A writer in the Atlantic directs
needed attention to a statement that
is made as many times by as many
people, perhaps, as any other, and
always with a trust in its wisdom so
undeserved as to be truly pathetic.
Two persons get into a discussion on
some subject, and after while the
chances are that the one of them with
the weaker cause or the less ability to
support it will try to close the argu-
ment by saying, "Oh, well, there are
two sides to every question" Then
the other, if he happens to be tired OF
the debate, or to hold it's subject of
no vital Importance, will admit the
assertion, with more or less of cour-
tesy- and they part with nothing
settled
Now it is not true that there are
tsio sides to every question-not true,
shat is, except in the never-intended
sense that there is to every question
a wrong side and right side. A few
have one or two more, possibly, but
to the vast majority of them there is
but one side worthy of the name, for,
of course, the wrong side is not d
side at all, as the word in this usage
is invariably understood-New York

w. P. HEMMENWAY is DEAD
Mystery Surrounds Life OF Former La
Crosse High School Principal
Who Leaves Will.

La Crosse.-Whatever may have
been the secret which made a recluse
of w. P. Hemmenway, for twenty
years principal Of the La Crosse High
school and identified with local schools
for ten years before that, he took it
to the grave. DR.. Hemmenway, SO
years old, passed away at Minneapolis
and so far as known made no state
ment before his death.
Hemmenway came here in 1877,
when 81 years old. He left in 1907, at
81. During that period he was with
out intimate associates, belonged to
no societies, remained in his room
practically all the time he was not at
school, received no letters and wrote
none, except of a business nature,
was a bachelor and had no near rela-
tiyes of whom anybody here had any
knowledge. He never mentioned his
life prior to coming here and even his
age would be unknown were it not
that he was obliged to record i. on
his original application for an ap-
pointment.
Dr.. Hemmenway is believed to have
left a large estate, and considerable
interest attaches to the opening of his
will in the hope that it may shed some
light on the hidden story Of his life.

TEN FIREMEN HURT IN BLAZE
Gross Company Loses Part of Its

About $4,000.

AIilwaukee.-In fighting the fire
that swept over and resulted in more

coal sheds of the Gross Coal company,
ten f1remen were burned, three of
them seriously. Firemen taken to hos
pitfalls are:
John Donovan, Edward Beck, Mich
ael Sheehan, j. ]. Guerin, all badly
burned about the face, hands and
arms.
The fire was discovered in the car
penter's shed, just above the engine
room in the center of the coal yard,
when flames and a dense cloud of
smoke burst forth. George Bosch, SUI
perintendent, was directing the work
Of a gang of men when he first saw
the flames and turned in the alarm.
Adam Gross, head of the concern,
refused to tal@ to reporters. He was

and sheds were nearly destroyed,
causing $4,000 damage. The machin-

600. The building was an old one, its
dimensions being 225x250 feet, and

OBJECT TOP|ERS N
BEAVER DAM RIVER
PROTEST OF POWER COMPANY
TO STATE RAILROAD COM
MISSION.
ENGINEER WILL INVESTIGATE
Horizon and MayvilIe Ask the Commits
sion to Stop the Dredging of Rock
River, Claiming 1t VIII Be Injurious
to Navigation.

Madison. Whether the Beaver Dam
Realty company of Beaver Dam shall
be allowed to obstruct the navigation
OF Beaver Dam river by building piers
IN the bed Of it and building over it
at Beaver Dam is an issue that is to
be fought out before the railroad com
mission and viii finally come before
Gov. McGoyern for determination.
The question involved is really the
right of individuals to drive piles or
place other distractions in navigabIe
streams. The situation at Beaver Dam
arises primarily out of the opposition
raised by the Paramount Power &
Realty Co., which has brought a suit
to enjoin the Beaver Dam Realty COM
pany from proceeding with the work
OF building piers in the bed of the
river for the purpose of constructing
a building thereon. Pending a deter
mination of that suit application has
been made to the railroad commission
to interfere, under the provisions OF
Chapter 69m of the Statutes, which is
the remnant of the water power law
of 1911.
The railroad commission has direct
ed g. M. Larson, it's chief engineer, to
make an investigation and hearing
viii be had before the commission on
G.. 7.
another subject of interest soon to
,ome before the commission is the pc
tition of several hundred residents of
Horizon and Mayville setting forth
that the Rock River Valley Land com
pany is dredging that stream in such
way as to prove great detriment
and damage to the head waters Of
Rock river and destroying it as a navi-
gable stream. The complaint is by
the city of Horizon, and alleges that
the work complained Of will lower the
level of the river and drain Lake Hor-
icon, which provides the head waters
Of Rock river, and will destroy the
hunting, boating and fishing priv
leges. 1t further alleges, too, that it
will make the river stagnant and a
menace to public health. The hearing
has been set for Oct. 10.
