Witt Gun

At Adams Geo Henry, Jr., had the
misfortune to get shot in the foot
by gun. He was out hunt
ing north of town and set his
gun up against a tree while he tried
to poke rabbit out of a hole. In the
meantime the dog became excited, knock
ing the gun down and the jar made the
gun go off, the charge taking away a
bunch of flesh from the bottom of his
foot. Fortunately no bones were struck
and pretty sore foot is the result of
the accident. George is now going a
bout on crutches, feeling that he was
fortunate that the injury was no worse
and that he was on the ground on his
hands and knees at lifetime the gun was
discharged.

Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas Gillespie were
married 60 years ago last Saturday.
No celebration was held at their home
in Kilbourn on account Of the recent

Concerning his life he wrote for the

January, 1881. Our family was so large,
six besides father and mother, that
father and I came to this country in
1871, to earn money to send for mother

eight weeks on the ocean and saw
whales and ice burgs. Between Ire
land and England we struck rock and
it knocked us all down. The captain
put twenty men to- pumping and
thought he would have to turn in for
repairs. He did not, however. We
saw about the first steamer to cross the
ocean. We came up on the first rail
road in this country from Quebec to
Vermont. Wife and l were married
the last day of October, 1854, so Satur-
day will be our Goth anniversary. We
have lived in or near enough to look in

all attended your schools and always
found fine teachers, especially Miss
Conway.

A wave of crime seems to be sweep
ing over Madison, robberies, as
saults and murders falling one upon
another with the perpetrators of the
crimes escaping undetected. The la
test of the unsolved affairs was staged
IN the foreign settlement and is a re-
voting climax to long list.
According to the Madison Journal
the fourteen year old daughter of
an Italian couple named Pelotta was
taken from her home Friday morning
by three men two of whom held the
mother and another daughter while the
third carried the girl off bodily.
Mrs. Pelotto and her two daughters
were busy at their homework Friday
morning. Three men believed to be
Italians entered the back door. Their
work was arranged. Two OF
them started for Mrs. Pelotta and
her oldest daughter. One Of them car
ried a revolver, so the story goes.
The third picked up the object OF his
crime "a girl of fourteen years-and
deliberately carried her out of doors.
Down the street he carried her, while
she fought pluckily but weakly
against the intentions of her abduct-
ors. Meanwhile screams from the Pc
lotta house at tracted neighbors who
gathere d in the back yard and sought
to learn the cause. An incoher-
ent idea of something wrong was
gained by woman living several
doors away and she called the police.
In the time intervening the ruffian car
ried his victim to a house further down
the block. Here he kept her prisoner
until he sensed the approaching search
ers and then he released her. The girl
said she was insulted. Neig hborhood
gossip has it she Jared worse. The
three men escaped An officer arrived
some time later, questioned the people
of the neighborhood and then left.
The Pelottas are Italians and speak
no English. Mrs. Pelotta, according to
a woman neighbor, exhibits black anC
blue marks on her arms, inflicted by
the man who held her when she at
tempted to save her daughters honor.

On Monday evening at the high school
building the Monday Night club dis
cussed the ten amendments before the
people at the present election. They
were explained and the sentiment was
in favor of their passage. There was a
question as to one or two but the more
they were explained the more it was
thouget it would be we'll to give them
a trial.
On Monday evening Harry Lauder
himself was at Madison and sang to a
house so filled many had to
stand. The Scotsman has a face that
wins, q personality that is pleasing ard
a voice that is sweet and low. Mr..
Lauder meets and greets his audience
as if he enjoyed the occasion as much
as they. His brogue is broad, his cos
tunes characteristic Of his native land
and his singing is of such q nature that
it finds a responsive chord in the entire
audience. On two occasions the theatre
was filed with the many voices as they
joined with him in the chorus of
"Roamin' in the Gloamin' and "a
Wee Doech-an- Doris" He said he
did not care if the roof was lifted off,
it did not belong to him. While in Aus
tralia he met Professor R. T. Ely of
Madison who extended Madison hospi-
tally and during the afternoon the Scot
had a cup of tea with him. A portion
of the performances are given over to
vaudeville and the Highland bag-pipe
band.
Among those from Baraboo who at
tended were Mr.. and Mrs. E. Pfann-
stiehl, Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Ringing,
Attorney and Mr.. Daniel Ruggles, Mr..
and Mrs. H. E. Cole, Miss Lucille Her
rington, Miss Helen Hoadley, c. E.

carried patrons to Portage, many from
this locality attending.
The November st. Nicholas is the
first number Of the forty second
volume: and celebrates the event with
the first chapters of Frances Hodgson
Burnett's new story, The Lost Prince,
which, it is announced, is to run
through the entire new volume in
twelve installments.
The story is woven around the leg
end of a certain European country,
that five hundred years ago, while
ruthless and unpopular king was in
power, his son, a youth of noblest
qualities and much loved by his people,
mysteriously disappeared; and upon
the death of his father, new dynasty
came to the throne. This legend has
been handed down as tradition
through all the changes of five CEN
turtles, and still survives, for, even to-
day, the common people cherish the
belief that a descendant of the lost
prince will yet re-appear and become
their greatest ruler. The boy hero, as
the reader makes his acquaintance in
these first chapters, is winning man
" lad, whose adventures all the family
are likely to follow with interest.
The new number offers also an Arth-
ur Rackham picture, plenty of short
stories and sketches and the first chap
tiers of peg o. the Ring" the new
serial story by Emile Benson Knipe
and Alden Arthur Knipe.

strange find When the owner went
into the lot to feed them he noticed
some clothing which had been exposed
by the scratching of the egg producers.

who came with shovels and dug up the
property. 1t required dray to haul
the articles away. AS to whom the
goods belong is not known and neither
is it known how they came to be buried

ito indicate the ownership and it is
thought possible that they may have
been taken from a freight car. The

been in Baraboo working on the case.
