After "The Return of Eve" was pre-
scented at the Al. Ringing theatre a
few nights ago, Baraboo citizen
remarked that the actors were there
long time and the wonder was that
SO little of the real Dells appeared in
the films. The following from a Kill
bourn paper throws some light on the
reason why:
Amy rocky formation which hap
pened to lie in the original Garden
of Eden was not decorated with the
engraved initials of globe trotters and
nature lovers. But a photoplay re-
production of the home of Mother Eve
and Father Adam, filmed last August
in the famous Dells Of the Wisconsin
river, within a short distance of the
city OF KilbOurn, was nearly spoiled
by hundreds Of penknife cuts. There
were big initials and small ones, pairs
of hearts cut deeply by lovers, and
even pictures frescoed in the sand
stone
All this was discovered after "The
Return of Eve" Essanay production
had been nearly completed, and was
being run before the heads of the
concern at Chicago. The entire COM
pany of players, including Edna Mayo
and the we1l-known Eugene O'Brien,
stars, and the rest of an expensive
cast were Immediately ordered back
to Kilbourn. Before the principal
scenes were retaken, p1asterers were
engaged in smoothing over the initial
cut rock
During the stay in Kilbourn Miss
Mayo rode about in her private tour
ing car and the Essanay company
paid a goodly sum for private launch
to carry the actors to and from their
work. This was in charge Of Max
Mitchell Of Portage, and Mr.. Mitchell
gave the film artist scene of Portage
daring while at the Dells, and per-
formed the stunt of jumping from
perilous heights at Stand Rock, from
one rock to another.

new dime IS HERE;
LOOKS like MEDAL
RObt. V0geisang Brings Three
Coins From st. Louis TO
Cape.

The new dime has arrived in the
Cape. One million eight hundred thou
sand OF the sparkling silver coins have
been struck off by the L. S. mint at
Philadelphia and now are working
their way into circulation throughout
the country.
The dime has the appearance Of be-
ing a small silver medal rather than
coin. In the character Of lis work
manship, it presents a combination of
new and old ideas in coin-making.
The first of the ten-cent pieces to
arrive in the Cape were brought on
the steamer Cape Girardeau and by
Robert Vogelsand, cashier of the
Farmers and Merchants Bank, who
brought three from st. Louis.
Of the three which Mr.. Nogelsang
brought, he retained one of them, As
SiStant Cashier Kempe of the Farmers
and Merchants Bank retained one and
W. W. Hinchey, secretary of the Retail
Merchants Association and Broadway
merchant, got the third.
Casper Sander also got one from a
man who came down on the steamer
Peoria when it touched here Wednes-
day.
The face of the dime presents a
Woman'S head. the features of 'Liber-
~" In large letters around this face
is spelled the word Liberty"
On the reverse side Of the dime is
the figure Of the old Roman insignia
of the courts OF law and Justice
wreathed about with laurel, the flower
of victory.
The milling on the edge of the coin
follows the old style with the CORFU
gated edges. The figures on both sides
of the coin are raised in relief against
the background of the coin and at the
edge, the surface of the coin also is
raised so that when two of the coins
ase pressed together, the figures
stamped on the faces do not touch.
This is to facilitate the handling of
them in stacks by bankers and others
who have large supply of dimes.

As the result of a quarrel over &
81 impounding fee for a hog owned by
a restaurant man in Walnut Ridge

ing that was brought to the Cape yes
terdly by members Of the Frisco train
crews, was placed under arrest and
there was danger of a mob forming TO
take him from the hands of the sheriff.
Walnut Ridge is a small town a mile
on the other side of Hoxie on the Fris-
CO. The city has a new stock law
which has been in effect but a few
weeks. 1t provides for taking all ami
mails that stray on the public roads OF
streets to the pound and fee of 81
is exacted in order that the owner may
obtain them.
A hog belonging to the restaurant
proprietor, whose name was not learn
ed, escaped from its pen Wednesday.
The marshal saw the animal on the
street, but a short time later, the 49,
year old son of the TeStauranteur start
ed in pursuit.
The boy caught the hog and started
driving it homeward, when he was ac-
costad by the marshal who claimed the
81 impounding fee. The boy told the
marshal that his father would have
to settle the fee.
The marshal thereupon went to the
father, a man about 6S years old, and
asked for the fee The old man re-
fused to pay. A quarrel resulted and
the old man turned his back upon the
marshal ard started to walk away.
He had taken but d few steps when
the marshal drew his revolver and
fired point blank at the old man. The
victim fell to the ground and by the
time anyone reached his side, he was
dead.
One of the bullets struck his back
bone between the shoulder blades and
came out of his chest. The other bull
let penetrated at the back of his neck
and came out at t be throat. Both bull
lets had broken his spinal column.
A short time after the shooting, the
sheriff arrested the marshal to hold
him for the Coroner's jury. The mar
shall about three weeks ago, it was re-
ported, shot and killed a negro.

dollars.
As part of the homesteading, he is
required to live for a part of each

James Ritchie. recently appointed
postmaster at Winnemucca, but who
had not qualified for the position,
has sent in his resignation to WASH
ington. says the Silver State. The
reasons for this action have not been
distinctly stated, but ii is understood
that Mr.. Ritchie has other plans in
view whereby he can make more
money with less work. So far as
known there are no candidates for
the position and it is probable that
it will be some time before success
sor to Postmaster Rogers is named.

FIRE AND WATER

The committee on Fire and Water
submitted the following report:
We have carefully examined all the
fire hydrants in the town Of Eureka
and find them in excellent condition.;
that the mains supplying said hy-
drants are also in good condition.
and the fire tanks in excellent condi-
tion and overflowing.
We find the County cart in excel
lent condition and supplied with 500
feet of first class hose. the Hook and
Ladder cart newly supplied with lad
ders and fire hooks, which were bad
ly needed. The Rescue and Mob Hill
fire carts are in good condition and
each supplied with 700 feet of good
hose.
We find the two carts at the Han
cock fire plug supplied with 500 feet
of new rubber lined cotton hose.
On one of the carts there are 300 feet
of old rubber hose. which is in very
poor condition. and In case of fire
liable to break at any moment. We
would therefore recommend to the
Board Of County Commissioners that
they supply said cart with new addi-
tional hose so that there may be two
lines Of fire hose from the Hancock
fre plug for the protection Of the
school house and other buildings in
that vicinity.
We believe that the town and
county of Eureka are to be congratu-
lated on the excellent fire system of
the town for the protection Of the
Court House and other property.
