TO BUY LAND FOR FAIR PARK
Action Releases an Appropriation of
1855, 900 to be Used for
improvements.

Automatically vote of IL to the
county supervisors adopted resolu.
ton calling for the purchase OF addl-
tional land to be donated to the state
for state fair purposes. The cost OF
the tract will be about $4,000. This
action releases to the state fair board
an appropriation of $255,000 to be
used for new buildings and improve
ments.
The action of the board was the
elimination of long fight. More
than year ago the legislature made
the appropriation for state fair i'm
provements, but the release Of the
fund was contingent on the county's
willingness to enlarge the state fair
park.
The original proposition was to have
the county expend about $15O,OOO for
more land At a recent joint confer
ence between the fair board and the
supervisors the fair board mem
bers agreed to accept 120-foot strip
of land adjoining the park on the east
and running the entire length of the
grounds.
A. H. Wilkinson, president of the
fair board, told the supervisors that
unless the county agreed to donate
some additional land to the state, the
fair would probably have to be moved
from Milwaukee.
The resolution was taken up, read
and accepted by a majority vote so
quickly that the opposition had barely
time to comprehend the proceedings.

COPPER THIEVES ARE TAKEN
Said to Have Stolen Wire From Mil.
waukee Road Signal Con-
nections.

Portage members of an
organized gang of copper thieves
that have evidently been at work on
different points of the Milwaukee
road between Milwaukee, Portage,
Sparta and La Crosse, are now in
the hands of the police at Sparta.
west of this city.
The men are charged with stealing
1900 pounds of copper and are now
in Monroe county Jail arrested by
Sheriff George Boss and a number
of special police. They give their
names as Kelly, O'Neil, Downs and
Dean.
The Milwaukee and Northwestern
roads have been missing copper
wires, which form the connections
between the electric signals on the
road bed, and copper current con-
ductors. The first clue to the iden-
tity of the thieves became known
when junk dealers checks were pre-
sented by the strangers for payment.
Kelly, O'Neill and Downs were
caught carrying large bundles into a
Sparta junk shop.
