George [. Mcfarland, superinten-
dent of Baraboo Gas & Electric COM
pany, has found that the cost to the
city for the new lighting system
will be $S, 475.04 year providing no
lights go out. In case lights go out
the amount will be deducted from the
bill by the city if the city officials
know about it. This reduction may
be as much as $500 per year. In
case more lights are added to the sys-
tenn the cost will be above the So, 475. O4
mentioned. There has been some dis
cussion as to the cost of the system
to the tax payers and to
be exact Mr.. Mcfarland has
figured the amount. Some thought it
would be more.
Portags is paying about $4,000 and
has not suoh splendid system as

field, while the centerpiece, which
was the object of continued admiration
from the young gentlemen, was the
football used in the Portland game.
1t was placed ia exactly the same
position it occupied when the game
was called. On one side it was in
scribed Northwest Championship,
and on the other "B. Fl. s." Around
the big hall were massed fruits, red
apples and white grapes, continuing
the brilliant color effect. The place
cards were miniature footballs and the
colors, red and white, were vividly in
evidence, even the delicious menu
having dainty touches of the prevail
ing tint. After dinner number of
the charming girl friends of the young
men came at the invitation of the
hosts to dance the tango with the
