THEY'RE GOING TRAPPING,

This may be the twentieth century
and full OF flying machines, automo-
biles and other appurtenances and
evils of high state of civilization In
fact, one would hardly think that hunt
ing and trapping is being done right
here in Grant county.
Just to show that there is, Ben
Reed and Eugene Doll of Waterloo
township left Thursday for the coun-
try around Bridgeport where they ex-
pect to hunt and trap during the fall
and winter. The boys came through
Lancaster with a complete outfit, in
Guiding three dogs. An invitation
kindly extended to the Herald man
for a night in the woods will be gladly
awaited of later in the season. The
spot selected is some wild country
near the Wisconsin river. And So

smart line of talk that took we'll, as
did everything they pulled off. The
local dentists, DR.. Treweek and Dr.

Gus evangelists as Sankey, Excel, and
Gabriel.
Recently he was placed in a state

Eben RexfOrd is survived only by his
niece, Mrs. Frank Spencer of Appleton,
and two nepEews, Rex Barman and

old fintlock pistols and rifle carried
by the late Charles Govel in the Black

NO BEES FOR MIKE.

Mike Shields over in Marietta, Craw-
ford county, had an experience Mon
day that he will not forgot in a hurry
and one that he can thank his lucky
stars turned out SO luckily. At the
Evert Culver auction sale a short time
ago he purchased four swarms of bees
and was just taking them home. In
some unaccountable manner the bees
became enraged, probably by the
bumpy condition of the roads, and
not quite a few of them took their
spite out on the horses. They ran
away, tipped the rig over and in the
melee Mr.. Shields was badly stung.
He was rushed to this city and placed
under the care of a physician, who
quickly allayed his sufferings. The
bees settled in the middle of the road
and we understand that several peo-
pie attempted to go home on that road
and had to make big detour in or
der to avoid the angry insects-Bosco-
bel Dial-Enterprise.
