AuSTRIA'S REPLY Will
PROVE UNSATISFACTORY

WASHINGTON, Dec.1o.-The summary of
Austria's reply to the Ancona note has been re-
ceived The complete text of the note IS expected
tonight tomorrow. 1t is admitted that the reply
is unsatisfactory.
In the reply Austria asks for further details ana
calls upon the United States to explain in detail its
charges that the Austrian submarine commander
did not act in a humane manner.
Austria asks for the names OF persons upon
whose testimony the United States based its note.
The dual monarchy expresses regret over the loss
of American lives, but maintains it is understood
that sufficient time was given by the submarine
commander for all persons to leave the Ancona
The note intnates that the Austrian government IS
not pleased that the United States seems to place
more confidence in the statements of passengers
than it does in the imperial Austrian navy. The
United States will give the information demanded
lin the note but those in the confidence OF the Pres
dent state that he is determined not to let the issue
drag or become closed by pickering over points
| which are relatively unmportant.

Whereas, the Dewey bridge, under

ROBS HOUSE AND Is CAPTURED
Ben French Home BurgIarized Tues
day Night; Thief Caught
Next Day

While Mr.. and Mrs. Ben French
were attending the picture show
Tuesday evening, their home was
entered and jewelry valued at over
$1OO was taken. The thief was ran
sacking the house when Mr. and Mrs
French returned home and hearing
the auto coming, made his way out
Of the house, only to be met at the
door by Mr.. French, who, armed
with a club, forced the intruder to
throw up his hands.
Mr.. French recognized the man i'm
mediately as Pat Nolan, who. had
been employed at the Flambeau
River Lumber Co.'s camp 2, as cook,
the past winter Nolan begged to
be released, saying he was only
looking for place to sleep. Ben
let him go and told him to go to
the Manley House, even offering to
pay for his bed. Nolan was crafty
enough to ask him to telephone the
hotel, instead of accompanying him
there.
AS soon as Mr.. and Mrs. French
entered the house they discovered
that it had been ransacked and con-
siderable jewelry taken, including a
wrist watch, three rings, ear rings,
necklace, locket, lavalier and a gold
nugget.
The sheriff and police were i'm
mediately notified and Nolan was
arrested in the woods near Murry
Wednesday forenoon by Sheriff Stew
art Most of the stolen articles
were found on him, although Nolan
had given a couple of rings away to
country girl in the vicinity of Muir
ry. 1t is thought these will be re-
covered
Nolan was brought here and, at
his hearing before Justice Reeves
the same afternoon, admitted his
guilt. He was bound over to circuit
court under bail bond of $1,000.

GETS JAIL SENTENCE

iOi1 ouI CClil GIL
Our intermittent visitor has once
again been in evidence. The latest
to entertain the guest was Mr. Smith,
who had the pleasure of having to
trace the hide of a horse, which he
supposed had died dead and was I'M
able to ramble further. 1t got out
from under the seat of his buggy,
beat it for Ladysmith and landed in
the market where all good hides go.
1t seems that l.. e. Zimmerman was
the driver or leader as the case may
be, who rambled in with the hide
and gathered in the funds, amount
ing to $500 and hiked back to Con
rath. Mr.. Smith, knowing some of
the habits of the old horse-as he
was an old trusty-Went up to our
county seat and after viewing the
remains identified same as the hide
he had once concealed in his buggy.
He swore out warrant for Zim,
who has engaged room and board at
Hotel De Stewart for some time to
come. Now everybody is wondering
who committed the other robberies
and looking wise.
