BARABO0 SOLDIER
SEES BOMBS FALL

Mr.. and Mrs. S. P. Critchell have re-
ceived letter from their grandson,
Ellsworth Critchell, who is on the New
Orleans cruising along the west coast of
Mexico. The letter was written near
Topolobampo and the young man says
that one morning he saw sight which
his grandfather never, saw when he was
in the army during the Civil war an
airship dropping bombs on the enemy.
At the time the letter was written the
rebels were holding Topolobampo and
the Federals were beseiging with gun
boats
The Federals are about starving the
Rebels out and in some way the Rebels
secured an airship. One morning Just
at daybrcak the air craft was seen
lowering over the Federal ships. The
largest gun on the Federal boats is a
six FOUNDER and it could not be elevated
high enough to hit the bird man. The
Federals commenced shooting with their
able to drop five bombs, one just miss
ing ship. When the bombs struck the
water they exploded and threw great
cloud of spray and as soon as the last
one fell the airship made knots for the
shore, the shots from the boats never
touching him.
The New Orleans then left for Guay
mas where the boat was stationed when
the letter was written. He says the
weather is very warm, the big tarpau-
n covering the deck Of the craft to
keep off the sun. The New Orleans is
about 375 feet long, has four decks, is
not battle ship but cruiser, has
speed of q knots an hour and the
largest gun is of five inch bore. At
night those onIboard take turns stand
ing guard, each for an hour with gun
and so rounds of ammunition. It is seri-
Gus to be caught sleeping.

CANT|LLON QUITS
As ROAD MANAGER

Because of i'll health w. D. Cantillon,
general manager 'of the Chicago &
Northwestern railway company, has
resigned He is we'll and favorably
known by railway men throughout the
country and he has large acquaintance
in Wisconsin. Some months ago he
obtained leave of absence and he
hoped that his health would improve so
that he could resume his position, but
thus far, recuperation has not been suf-
ficient to warrant a resumption of ac-
tivities.
S. G. Strickland, assistant general
manager, who acted as general man
ager during Mr.. Cantillon's absence,
was promoted to fill the vacancy.
W. J. Town is now assistant general
manager of the road and George F.
Villas is general superintendent.

Gus command.
She led me not into the gorge, but a.
long the ascent of the east bluff. She
went bounding over the jagged and peri
lous rocks at such pace that was
brea HESS and could ask no questions.
The deluge was now nothing less than
appalling There came dazzling flash,
followed by a reverberating crash of
thunder that shook the hills During this
binding lightning, I caught a glimpse
of large pine-tree inclined almost
horizontally across the chasm.
I looked for the young woman, but
she had disappeared. called wildly,
but no answer came.
I heard wall like the cry of a tor
tured child. It was repeated I turn
ed toward the sound, only to hear it
once more. My blood ran cold | could
not move muscle. A quick motion
among the kleaves, wild shrek, a
heavy body launched against me, a hot
breath on my face, and toppled over
with the impact. There was a sense of
falling, falling, falling and then all con-
seriousness was gone.

ton, l found, by the lightning, which
still came in an occasional yellow glow,

The following morning, report came

gnarled boulders at the bottom of the

waters of the swollen stream.

You enter and look fearfully round
and about you. You see the usual set
ting for scene of this sort. MANY
small cabinets stand about and open
drawers show off the evil looking tools
with which dentist plies his trade.
An angular chair upholstered in red
plush, stands next to the window.
Around it are small table-like arrange
ments which hold more steel imple-
ments Directly in front of the chair
is long dangling object much resem-
bling sea-onion. only far more deadly.
The dentist calls it the engine and you
think to yourself he leaves off the ''of-
Torture out of respect to the thing
feelings. The dentist comes forward
and requests you to be seated in the
red plush chair. You comply with tn e
request and the dentist goes through
some work behind you and with some
creaking and groaning on the part of
the chair you are elevated some three
| feet from the floor The dentist patters
about hunting various little saws, ham
mers, picks, axes and other things all
of which he places in your mouth at
once in order that he may have them
handy. Then he begins operations, he
hammers, he shovels, he pounds, he
saws, fhen this is all done over again.
You protest in a mufled voice; the
amount of silverware you have in your
mouth is to blame, that he is hurting
your nervous aystsnl, but he pays no

no more use of the tools he has been
working with, he c@-1y5 the sea-onion

dentist being amused at the faces you
make and the little squeals you give
vent to. Atlast the property of the
dentist is taken from your mouth and
he aids the moaning chair to sink back

In the event Of no bridge at Merri-
mack, what then? Simply, this. This
section of the country is still far better
off than ever before. There will be a
sufficient volume of water in the river
to float a good steam ferryboat, and
that is a far better state than ever
before existed in the river at that
point, | have seen enough of the Oper-
alton of the old Mats ferry to know
that there seldom if ever existed a
sufficient stage Of water to float a
boat that would carry a respectable
load or cargo across the river. For half
the distance across the stream there
has seldom been more than eight
inches to foot Of water while for the
rest of the way there was a narrow
channel of good depth close to the west
bank of the river
But now, and forever hereafter as
we hope. there will be depth of eight
to ten feet of water all the way across
the stream, and that will float ferry
boat 20 deep draught The presen
crrent will be gone, of course, neces-
stating some sort of power to propel
the boat. This may be steam or cleo
trio, probably the latter, as being the
cheaper of the two. One or more
good boats would be needed to &C
c}nmodate the traffic that would al
most instantly offer, and some one S
lifelong job would instantly spring
40, for the ferry would at once be
come > well known and profitable
property, which would be snapped up
promptly by a live and wide-a awake
corporation, the interest on the com
paratively small investment being,
doubtless, avery satisfactory one.
1t seems to me there will be no de-
lay in the organization of a good COM
pany to take hold of the ferry, obtain a
franchise and set about building the
necessary boats, of which there could
be at least two, and possibly one more
10 satisfy the business that would i'm
u1ediately offer if any reliable means of
passage was known to exist at that
point.
Who is the lucky man to take hold
of and push along the new means of
transfer? This ferry would at once
put away the unnecessary travel to
Prairie du Sac to find a bridge and
facilitate the trip to the state park at
Devils Lake and the dells at Kilbourn
over the new pike between Baraboo
and the latter place.
Beating will be favorite enjoyment
in this lake at Merrimack as soon as the
water is sufficiently high to attract at
tention and flu nish the satisfactory
volarne of water and fish which of
course would be placed in the lake.
The man or company that gets the
franchise for this ferry will be lucky.
