EDUCATED SEA LIONS

The Sparks world famous shows.
billed to exhibit here Thursday, June
IL, will present this year for their
patrons appreciation the largest and
without doubt the most wonderful
herd of performing Seals and Sea
Lions ever exhibited in America.
These truly wonderful animals per-
form seemingly impossible feats, and
do them with the ease and grace on
~ assumed by human performers
They have been trained to walk a
tight rope while skillfully balancing
an open umbrella on the tips of their
noses. They climb ladders while bal
ancing large rubber balls, tossing
them from one to the other with the
greatest skill. They ride horseback
on galloping horses while whirling
brands of fire, Juggling rubber balls
and other articles. The performance
Of these remarkable sea animals is
truly a sensation and the ease and
quickness with which they obey every
command of Capt. Wesley, their
trainer, leaves little doubt but what
they enjoy giving the performance
fully as much as the audience enjoy
seeing it. Some idea of the expense
incurred in presenting this act to the
public can be obtained from the
statement that these animals must be
fed on live fish, which must necess.
arily be of the salt water variety,
hence must come shipped alive from
either the Atlantic or Pacific ocean.
1t costs from five to ten dollars each
per day to board these animals, vary
ing according to the shows distance
from either ocean.

DOUBLE AMOUNT OF PRIZE
MONEY FOR FIREMEk

There has been little noise" made
| by the local committees about the
meeting of the Wisconsin State Fire
mems Association in this city III
June, but beneath the apparently
quiet surface the committee has been
steadily pushing their plans to ma
terialization and are content to leave
the noise making for the hundreds
of husky firemen that will visit Mon
roe on June Is, 19 and 20.
The attendance is increased this
year by the fact that the prizes Of
fered by the local committee is prac-
tically doubled over the prizes Of
fered in years before. Last year un-
der a $1,000 was paid the prize win
ners but this year about two thou
sand dollars in cash besides special
prizes will be given winners in tour
nament events. In this issue today is
published the events in competition
between the several companies with
the prize money paid last year and
the prize money to be paid this year.
At this early date several running
teams have entered for the tourna-
ment LadySmith, Jefferson, Rice
Lake and Monticello have entered
teams and there are five or six other
cities that have always sent teams
and are expected to this year. With
the additional prize money offered
this year the local management will
have no fear that the contests will
lack for participants
To those acquainted with this an
nual gathering of firemen the hold
ing of the association meeting in
Monroe is expected to Waken this
little burg up to a degree not exper
fenced in many years. The firemen
are mostly men who work hard the
year around and to many the annual
meeting comes to them as their only
holiday during the year.
They are a bunch of the best fell
lows on earth but like to be allowed
free rein at their annual meeting.
They make noise and lots of it, at
times everybody is clown and the
city holding the tournament the show
tent. And with all their play they
never forget they are gentlemen and
represent some good city of this COM
not engaging in the contests but
when matching their speed and
strength against their rivals they put
the same amount of energy and
strive to their utmost for glory and
the prize.-Monroe JournalGazette.

TUSSLE WITH MONSTER MUS
CALLONGE

Harry Gribel had an exciting en-
counter with monster muscallonge
in the Flambeau river a short dis
tance above the Gerard Hotel this
morning, only a few hours after the

The 'musky" bit savagely and as
soon as he struck the hook there

was not expecting big fish and was
not equipped to handle one, but af-
ter much work succeeded in getting
him near shore. Mr.. Gribel then
Jumped in the water and grabbing
the fish, which he says weighed 25
pounds or more, got it out on the
bank, the "musky" biting him in the

when Mr.. Gribel thought he had the
victory won, the big fish renewed
The fight and with a desperate flop
landed in the water again and es-
capped.

Mr.. Heaton, who is a very genial
gentleman, has in his possession
many newspaper criticisms of the
show and they all speak in glowing
terms of the excellent entertainment
given the honorable methods en-
ployed by the show management in
doing business with the public---no
gambling or short change artists be-
ing allowed among it's employees.

out en- masse if the weather is at all
favorable.

THE COMMENCEMENT PROGRAM

The commencement exercises of the
Ladysmith highschool, held last night
at the opera house, were largely at
tended. There was a conspicuous alb
sence of the noise and confusion usl-
ally attending these events in the
past, owing to the adoption of the
ticket system. The only drawback to
this arrangement is the fact that
many excellent seats We're vacant
because those holding the tickets
failed to come, while others were un-
able to secure tickets.
The class of 1913 included nine
members as follows: Delight E. Clark,
Daisy Mae Johnson, Helen Elizabeth
Speidel, Florence Yankee, Colby Hut
Crimson, Richard Earl Hutchinson,
William Luell, Thomas Erwin Rob
bins and Leo Zimmerman.
The theses of the graduates were
of a different nature than usually
characteriZes such programs. The
theme of each was some practical
subject, and in every instance the
arguments We're clearly and concise
ly stated, the delivery and stage
presence We're excellent, and the au
dience went home with better con
ceptiOn of what our schools are ac
complishing, their cost compared witt
other cities, and some of their needs
and deficiencies Common sense anC
democracy seemed to be the key
note. rather than flighty theories ant
extravagant snobbishness, in thi
commencement.
We, lack time and space to give ;
detailed report of the exercises
We will say, however, in conclusio
that the class gave unmistakable ev
idence of the guidance of good teach
ers. 1t is a class any school could b.
proud of.

Dear Sir-We are receiving many
inquiries from people located in
Minnesota, the Dakotas and Montana,
asking relative to the purchase of
pure bred dairy cattle.
Would it be possible for you to
select from among your community
bredeers say one carload of young
stock. the majority Of which might
be bulls. If you could fill such an
order or any part of it, would be
pleased to have you collect the data,
sending me the registry of individual
sires which you may have for sale,
giving, if possible, the milk record Of
the dams, state age and price. 1t is
not necessary that these sires be
ready for breeding at the present
time. Also if grade heifers can be
obtained.
Any information you can furnish
me relative to this matter will be
given wide publicity over our entire
territory.
Yours truly,
