CAPTAIN OF BOAT
NOW IN DILEMMA

How will Cap" Rogers, commander
Of wild Rover" remove his good
ship from the waters of Morton Lake?
Since the captain refused to comply
with certain conditions demanded by
the lake and park company and there
by lost his contract. a contract has
been signed with Richard Strohm, J..
S. Strohm of Dennison, H., and John
Gotschal, also of Dennison who will
put OH the lake an excursion boat
with a capacity of fifty and several
motor boats
Officials of the lake and park com
pany say the Wild Rover must go. To
leave it on the lake would be in viola
tion Of the new contract signed. Cap
tain Rogers says he will move the boat
to Dayton by water but the White
water will not carry the steam boat
now. He will probably dissemble the
boat to remove it.
The Strohm brothers and Mr. Got
schal have also secured the refresh
ment concessions and will erect pa
