Some Smooth Stranger.

Certain OconomowOc parties will re-
call the incident when they were in
yiegled into making a trip to Naga-
Wicka for the alleged purpose of hauling
in broken down automobile.
Avery smooth confidence game was
enacted here, says the Hartiand News,
when a stranger entered HI. F. Hansen's s
garage and said his automobile had
broken down near Nagawicka station
and wanted them to go out and pull it
in. He had left his pocketbook in the
car which was being watched by COM
panion, and if they would loan him So
1t would be returned to them by the man
IN charge OF the car, and it was neces-
sary for him to take the 10 o'clock train
for Milwaukee to get the needed repairs
for the machine. To make his story
ring true, he purported to call up John
StOlper's residence on Pine lake, direct
ing someone there to pay the S5. To
make the return of the money still more
secure he wrote out an order for the
amount which the garage people were
to present when they got the car. It
sounded fair and Lester Craft, who works
at the garage, handed the fellow s5 and
proceeded to Nagawicka for the machine.
On reaching the spot where it was said
to be, there was no machine After
searching about for awhile parties from
OcOnomowOc and Nashota appeared on
the scene bent upon the same errand. /.
The stranger had also successfully work
ed his game along the line. .-Oconomo-

A barn on the old Meyer farm just
northeast of the city limits, owned by
Emil Richter and worked by man
named Cramer, was destroyed by fire last
Friday evening. The family was not at

ering smoke about o'clock. but the fire
had gained such headway that it was
impossible to save the building. Twenty
five tons of hav, tools, machinery and
harness were burned. The horses were
saved The premises were insured.N
