GREAT BRITAIN DENIES
LANDING OF RUSSIANS

London, Sept. 1.-THE ofheiai
press bureau issued a denial TO-
night of the reports that Russian
troops have been landed in Belgium.
"There is no truth whatever
says the bureau, "in the rumorS
that Russian soldiers have landed
or passed through Great Britain
on their way to France or Belgium.
The statement that Russian troops
are or Belgian or French soil should
be discredited."
"The Daily Chronicle" refers to
the denial as the last word in the
greatest spool of the war" One
or two papers only treated the re-
ports, which have been one OF the
most psychological phenomena OF
the war, as having serious founda-
tiOn.

reached here in two forms, one through
German channels and the other through
the American President acting on his

Big Circus

Year after year when the big Ring
ling circus goes to the Chicago the un-
fortunate children of lefty are well
coined to see the wonders of the Bara-
boo enterprise. After such day how
can they but juggle rubber balls, turn
somersaults, ride chairs, dream of beard
ed ladies, elephants, giraffes and
clowns. The following from the Inter
Ocean tells the story:
Hundreds Of child waits from the big
gray-walled "homes' and from the

many Of the youngsters it was their
first circus and it must have been like
some great wish come true.
Zone little fellow with pair of
crutches at his side and his legs in iron
braces sat through the performance in
enraptured silence. The light that is
not seen on land or sea glowed in his
eyes. A faint smile softened his drawn
little face and he seemed to be in the
midst of dream from which it would
have been a sin to awaken him.

THE LAUGH WAS
ON THE JOKERS

Yesterday afternoon the Ladies' Five
Hundred club was entertained by Mrs.
J. E. Steckl at her home on Second
street and some jokester planned to have
little fun at the expense of the
guests. Shortly before the appointed
hour for the ladies to assemble, each,
unknown to the others, was asked
over the telephone to bring
a card table as there was short.
age in the neighborhood This request
seemed rather strange and the ladies'
felt little backward about tucking a
table under their arms and carrying it
through the streets and each in her own
way planned to avoid doing so. The
hostess was unaware Of the joke that
a certain person, whose identity is sus~
pected, was trying to pull off, and of
course nothing was said as each lady
entered without the table until one who
came late began to make excuses for
not doing so, then the ladies began to
compare notes and the truth dawned
upon them each one had been asked to
bring table and none had done 80 and
surely the laugh was on the other fell
low. Ha-Ha.

jenkins, in the commissionary depart
ment, remained during the service, the
father being promoted to captain and
acting commissionary on Feb. %, 1865.
He was made maj or on July II, 1865,
and mustered out on July ID, 1865.
After Mr.. Jenkins and son returned
at the close of the war they must find
something to do. Mr.. Jenkins health
was poor.
The family owned the house at 316
Eighth avenue now the residence of c..
A. Dearborn and moved there in 1860,
but short time before they went to
the war. Now he had returned to his
family of IL children, having lost the
ght one eye. There being nothing to
do here, he went to Brooksville, Pa,
to sell flood gate right and while there
died from disease contracted in the
army He was buried at Brook
s1ille and later his remains
were brought to Baraboo and
escorted to their resting place by the
family, friends and number of COM
rades. A prayer at the grave was by
Rev. M. Benson of the M. E. church.
Mrs. Jenkins was left to bring up
eleven children. She was born in Up
way, England, in 1919 and was married
in 1841. She came to this country with
her husband, four children and father
and mother, Mr.. and Mrs. Atkins, in
1852 Baraboo was noted at that time
for its numerous board shanties and
scarcity of sidewalks. Mrs. Jenkins,
like many others coming from the old
country, was very homesick, and who
could blame her? When mere child
she had been adopted by a wealthy
uncle, a retired merchant tailor, living
at Weymouth, fashionable seaside re-
sort, noted for its fine drives, paved
streets and grand esplanade. 1t was
often called the Naples of England.
For such person, brought up amid
sueh surroundings, with servants to do
her bidding and unaccustomed to man
ual labor, to be set down in such a
place as Baraboo as it was at that time
is it any wonder that she longed for
her home across the sea?
With true womanhood, when she
found that servants could not be had
she did the work herself. 1t was when
the war begun that her real trials
started. Her husband and oldest son
were at the front and she was left to
fight her battles alone. She was one
OF those strong, herioc souls who, hav-
ing great love of country, was willing
to give of her beloved household. Like
all mothers, she suffered greatly from
the sacrifices. From her home radia
ted the kindnesses and friendships that
knit neighborhoods together and pro-
mote the true spirit of humanity.
Mrs. Jenkins went to Chippewa
Falls about 1889 and lived with her
daughter Mary Mrs. R. D. Marshall,
until her death. She was brought to
Baraboo and laid by her husband and
two sons.
Before going to Chippewa Falls and
after coming back from Delton, they
occupied the residence at 921 Broadway
where H. H. Stanley lives and there
she kept house for her three sons, Gus,
Rufus and Frank.
| think she. deserves much credit and
praise for the way she brought up her
large family. They were all of great
ability and stood high in the community.

CASE AGAINST MORSE (
ROBERTSON DISMISSED
IN CIRCUIT COURT

Tuesday in the circuit court, before
Judge Cleeton, the suit of Gertrude
Wolf against Drs Morse and Robertson
to recover the sum of $4,000 for al
legged malpractice came up for hearing.
The suit was based on the allegation
that on May %, 1912, the plaintiff sus-
tanned fracture of one of her ankles,
and that Drs. Morse and Robertson were
called on to reduce the fracture and
take care of the case The allegation
of malpractice was based on the furth-
er statement of the plaintiff that, after
the ankle was encased in a plaster cast
by the doctors, that the cast was not
taken off for 40 days, and that other.
wise the treatment was not skillful, and
such as should have been given her.
The plaintiff had not completed her
case last night, and this morning placed
brother of the injured woman on the
stand His testimony took his attorneys
by surprise, for he testified that the
cast was taken from the ankle on the
fourth day. and the ankle massaged,
and that he was present when it was
done. This testimony was so different
from what the attorneys had anticipat-
ed, that, after a consultation, they an
nounced that it was useless to proceed
further with the case, as the whole mat.
ter rested on the failure Of the doctors
to remove the cast, and that, as their
own witnesses, whom they could not
impeach, had testified that the cast
had been removed. that there was moth.
ing left of the case, and so they asked
that they be non.suited on their own
motion, which was done. DR.. Morse
stated this afternoon that he supposed
he should feel grateful to the patient
for giving the public so exalted an idea
Of his wealth as to make it appear that
q Judgment for $4,000 could be easily
met by he and Or. Robertson.
The fact that the doctors were proved
to have done their work well by the
witnesses Of the plaintiff is doubly
gratifying to them, for it shows that
there was not a shadow Of reason for
bringing the suit.
