Auto Collides With Buggy.

While driving from town to their
home three miles west in Albion, Mr.
and Mrs. Jens Olson were run into by
an automobile driven by Jokum John
son of Stoughton last Friday evening.
The accident occurred on the Slough
ton road near d. P. Devine's place
after dark. Johnson claims he had
just met a car and in turning back into
the road did not see the Olson rig until
too late to avoid a collision. The team
was thrown to the ground, one of them
fastened under the car, while both Mr.
and Mrs. Olson were thrown to the
ground and considerably cut and bruis-
ed. Mrs. Olson was taken to the De-
vine home where DR.. Shearer took sew
eral stitches to close the cuts on her
face. One of the horses was so badly
injured that it is feared it will have to
be killed, and the buggy was also
wrecked. 1t is claimed that Johnson
was running without lights except a
small fashlight which he carried in his
hand. He returned to the Olson farm
the next day and promised to settle the
damage incurred 1t is fortunate that
the accident did not result more seri-
ously.

sided in Stoughton, conducting shop
there In January. 1891, he was mar
ried to Miss Amelia Johnson, who sur
wives him, as do A. w. Shumway, a

Too Handy With the Pen.

Close to dozen of Edgerton business
men are sorry to the extent of nearly
5000 for cashing checks for man with
whom they had no more than speak
ing acquaintance, on Friday last. That
man was almost stranger to most of
them, though he had been about town
for some weeks, making his home at
P. L. Pierce's on Swift street Having
to write in amounts, mostly under
twenty dollars, and forging the name
of P L. Pierce to each of them he
turned the bunch into cash at various
places which he visited during the af
ternoon and skipped out of town on a
freight train later in the evening.
About 9 o'clock that evening he was
seen near the depot at GAINESVILLE which
was the last trace of Jim the Pen
man" Marshal Springer has so far been
able to find.
1t is also claimed that with his other
crime he robbed the Pierce home in the
absence of the family of few dollars
taken from Mrs. Pierce's purse.
Saturday morning when the checks
began to come into the Tobacco Ex-
change bank the holders discovered
that Mr.. Pierce kept no account there
and the victims after comparing notes
set Marshal Springer to work to f1nd
the culprit. Cards offering reward
for his arrest were issued, giving the
following description of the forger:
WANTED FOR FORGERY.

nationally Austrian or Greek, height 5

er the college will open this year or
not. The instructors are told to hold
themselves in readiness to return should
the war end within a few months
"A most appreciative audience gath
cred at Culton Memorial hall on the
evening of August 10 to enjoy the pro-
gram of readings and song given by
Miss Gertrude Louise Spencer, assisted
by Miss Doris Clarke. Interspersed
with her dramatic readings, Miss
Spencer gave a number of readings
with musical accompaniment which
elected much favorable comment. Miss
Clarke sang charmingly and her ac-
compartments were beautifully rem
dered. Miss Spencer's many friends
wish her continued success.
-Janesville has again demonstrated
its ability to pull off good fair. But
to our notion the management ought to
get away from the idea that it is a
GAINESVILLE affair alone. Beloit, Evans
vile, Edgerton, Milton and Clinton
ought to be recognized in the move
ment and induced to make it Rock
county fair in fact, successful event
like the Walworth and Dodge county
fairs are. With the finest grounds and
best race track in the state, there is no
reason why this thing cannot be done.
We believe Edgerton is ready to join
the movement on invitation.
