quarantine farms providing the board
sanctions this transfer.

ADAMS COUNTY IS
WITHOUT A JAIL

Fl. A. Smythe Of Madison and FL.
e. Cole of Baraboo have returned
from an archaeological trip through
Adams county, travelling iabout $50
miles during the week. The Indian
mounds near the Baraboo club house
at Wolf lake were measured, others
were noted at Goose lake, Is were
plated at Light House Rock near
Friendship, 119 were mapped at
Strongs Prairie and five other groups
were surveyed on the way down the
Wisconsin river from Strongs Prairie
to Kilbourn. Two large birds, SINH
lar to the one at Devils Lake, were in
potato field at Strongs Prairie,
pIowed for the first time, and had
they not been visited soon their loca-
tion and size would have been lost.
They are part of one OF the largest
groups in number in the state and
had never been reported to the secre-
tary of the society, Charles E. Brown,
Madison, Wis. One large bird on the
Douglas farm north of Plainville is
nearly obliterated. A total Of 285 In
dian mounds were located during the
week besides village sites and ether
evidences of a people which have dis
appeared before the advance of ciVili-
cation.
The Baraboo colony at Adams, one
mile from Friendship shows prosperity.
Houses are going up like magic and
the town has grown to a population of
several hundred people. Adjacent to
the town is a large farm which was
plated by Madison real estate firm
and when the day of sale came the
lots failed to 60 1t is said the firm
lost about $4,000. The plat is between
Friendship and Adams and it will
be many years before houses are. built
where the Madison men erected castles
in the air. Friendship is improving
rapidly, the courthouse, business
places and residences going up. The
railroad is evidently good thing for
the whole community.
There is no Jail in Adams county
and when necessary prisoners are
taken to Mansion. This seldom
occurs. t one time arrests were
made and soon after the fellows were
in trouble again. The officer was not
able to take them to Mansion at once
and chained them to trees IN the
courtyard. The trees are pointed out
to visitors. Cells are being provided
in the basement of the new courthouse
for those who get tangled up with the
law.
The water is low along the Wiscon-
sin river and hunters state there will
not be many ducks this fall, only a
few are being killed. Chickens and
pheasants are plentiful and a few
deer are reported in the large woods of
the county. Deer, of course, are pro-
tected.
In Adams county are some foe farms
and in other sections the land sells as
low as five or ten dollars an acre. The
new line OF the Chicago Il North
western brought the people of the
county into much closer touch with
the outside world.

The Man of Leisure.

Most of our rich men work very hard
not always because they want to. but
in many Instances because they have
to. The husbandry of big estate in
itself may be task for the whole of
the time and thought. not of one man.
but of several. AS a general thing it
is fair to say that our only man Of
leisure is the tramp. The social pariah.
the mutineer against the rule of work.
is the only one who can be sure of a
care free. sybaritic existence. and even
be lives in constant danger Of rock salt
from the farmers gun or the onslaught
of the watchdog around the corner as
the hobo knocks at the kitchen door
or pauses at the water trough to drink.
The poor tramp is certainly more
frequent social phenomenon than the
rich one.-Philadelph Ledger.

SAVED BY A SONG.
When SantIey and His Party Faced
Death In Mexico.

Few people are aware that on one
occasion a timely song saved Sir
Charles Sankey's life. The famous
baritone was one of a party travelling
under military escort through bandit
infested region in Mexico when the
guards suddenly bolted. leaving the
travellers to the mercy Of a band of
booty hunters. These desperadoes. find
ing the spoil less valuable than they
expected, decided to STAY their capt1ves
and fare forth on another foray.
An inspiration came to Santley. Sur.
rounded by friends and foes, he COM
menced an aria and sang in his own
inimitable way. AS the notes rippled
forth on the clear mountain air the
bandits faces lighted up with pleasure.
and at the finish the leader expressed
his delight and asked the senior to sing
again.
Santley saw his chance and seized 1t.
He inquired if he might sing for the
liberty of the little party, and a reluc-
tant consent was given. For several
hours during that never to be forgot
ten night he enthralled his ,aptors
with a generous program of exquisite
melodies The next day the bandits
rendered payment by taking the whole
party down the mountain side and set
ting them free. Notwithstanding later
triumphs Sir Charles Santley never sur.
passed that one.-I.ondon Graphic.

HareS.
Ancient Architen&nrA

Herr Knauth. the architect in charge
OF the Cathedral of Strassburg. has
shown that the principles of construc.
ton followed by the great cathedral
builders of former times are identical
with these used by the builders of the
Egyptian pyramids and are based on
triangulauion- The same simple geo
metr.cal figure underlies all these con-
structionS. More than this, Herr
Knauth traces the architectural prin-
ciple in the formation of crystals and
lays down this formula: THE laws of
proportion in medieval architecture
are the geometrical laws of crystalli-
cation"
