STINT TO MENDOZA
(From Saturdays Da:ly.D

Aoolt tle n lie of the forenoon to
day VIM. Vandenburg found former May
or A. G. Buckley on the river bank
back of the Roser & Koch store in
serious condition. Mr.. Buckley had
evidently attempted to take his own
life with small knife. He was taken
to the Gem City General hospital by W.
HI. Atom and Robert Atom, who happen
ed to be passing in an automobile or
their way to Kilbourn. At the hospital
it was found that his windpipe was cut
and that there were about dozen CT Is
in his left side, some of which pene~
trated the lung. Unless infection fol-
lows it is thought he will recover.
The patient has not been in good
health recently. On his way to the
river he met a friend and did not rec
ognize him. He has remained very
close to his business as a book dealer
for anumber of years.
AS we go to press he is resting COM
fortably.
His many friends in the community
received the news with deep regret.
(From Mondays Daily.)

MADISON SLEUTHS
ARREST WOMEN
madison Democrat

Mrs. Ella Grace Prottenger, wanted
at Baraboo on the charge of running a
disorderly house and selling liquor
without a license, was arrested at
Middleton last night by Detectives
Krug and Fess after an exciting chase
in an automobile. Earlier in the even
ing the detectives arrested Mabel
Brown, charged with being an inmate
of the house.
Yesterday afternoon Chief of Pc
lice Shaughnessy received word from
the chief of police of Baraboo that
warrants had been issued for the
women and that they had left for
Madison. The chief assigned the de-
tectives on the case. Early last even
ing they found the Brown woman in
the Abandoned electric light station
on Williamson street They learned
that Mrs. Prottenger and another
woman and man had sneaked out of
the building and got into a taxi-cab
near the foot of South Blount street.
A little more sleuth work disclosed that
Mrs. Prottenger and her company
had left for Middleton. After deliv-
ering the Brown woman at the police
station the detectives hired an auto
mobile and hurried to Middleton. They
located Mrs. Prottenger's baggage at
hotel but she was nowhere to be
found The sleuths secured the vii
lage, visited the saloons at Pheasant
Branch and watched the train which
leaves Middleton for the west at 1920.
Near the outskirts of the village they
saw the same taxi-cab which took the
party to Middleton, coming from Madi-
son. They followed the car to the
Hoover saloon, near the village limits,
and while scouting around in the yard
in the rear of the saloon building they
heard the voice of a man who warned
Mrs. Prottenger that the place was
full of cops. Before he had finished
speaking the words Detective Krug
had the fleeing woman in custody.
Mrs. Prottenger was formerly a
Madison resident but she left for Bara-
boo several months ago to conduct a
hotel.
The case will come up in justice An
dro's court in Baraboo this afternoon
or at some other time.

FORTN|GHTLy CLUB;

Last year at the time the members of
the Fortnightly Literary club went to
Devils lake for the annual banquet, it
rained a torrent. This year the COM
mittee thought best to change the
place of meeting to Baraboo and large
ly on this account the banquet was
given at the Wellington hotel on Fri
day evening. The twenty-three pre-
vious banquets had been given at the
lake and the members and visitors
seemed to enjoy the change.
After the menu, Rev. B. E. Ray Of
the Congregational church offering
grace, the program was given
with Superintendent A. G.. Kingsford,
acting as POSTMASTER. During the
evening he brought forth some very re-
freshing stories and highly entertaining
wit. For number of years Mr.. Kings
ford has occupied the place at the head
of the banquet board on these occasions
and it would be difficult to locate a
POSTMASTER who fits so we'll into this
