A SOUND
SLEEPER

Alderman Ferdinand Link, who re-
sides on Eighth street north. has a
clear conscience, enjoys good health,
and recently he and his neighbor J. R.
Raglan have been actively busy in the
second ward looking after vacant lots
for garden purposes. Wednesday
night of this week Mrs. Link and her
daughter Anita, were out for the ev-
ening. During their absence Mr.. Link
worked about the house doing little
odd jobs that he wanted to do to clean
up and pick up about his premises. A
little after nine o'clock he retired as
well as the children. They must all
have been very sound asleep when Mrs.
Link and daughter came home at 10
o'clock. They found all the outside
doors to the house locked and the win
doWs are all fastened from the in
side. They realized that they were
locked out and rang the door bell in
cessantly, but no response. They threw
rubber8 and articles against the sec
ond story window, but none of these
disturbances had any effect on the
tired, new alderman. They finally
went to the neighbors telephone from
in the Raglan house and had central
ring, and re-ring 551, but central
could not arouse him the aIdoryo q n
kept on sleeping. A little after II
o'clock ]. R. Raglan and his son Fred
arrived home and were informed of
their dilema, After telling Mr.. Ra-
gan everything Mrs. Link and her
daughter had done to arouse her hus-
band, he finally went out and called
in his loud voice: Carload of cattle
here Link" also a carload of Seed
Potatoes".
These familiar sounds aroused the
sleeping alderman from his favorite
slumber. He came to the window with
the ejaculation what did you say p"
when he was informed by Mr.. Raglan
that if he would come down stairs and
open the front door so that his wife
and daughter could get in, they would
ali be much obliged to him. Here the
curtain dropped. What happened af-
terthe ladies got inside you will have
to get from Mr.. Link himself.

Wednesday of this week members
of the county board including n. NJ
Berg, J. c. Kieffer, B. R. Goggins, E.
A. Bennett, George Brown, C. B. Ed
wards and Michael Wagner, were in
Marshfeld Wednesday to confer with
the local committee in an endeavor to
perfect the organization of a Wood
County Council.
The proposition as decided up
on at the meeting is to organize the
county in three sections taking in the
communities of Marshfeld, Grand Rap
ids and Pittsville, the chairman of
each of these sections to form the ex-
ecutive board of the county council,
which in turn automatically becomes
branch Of the central or state coun-
Gil. To complete the organization local
councils will also be formed in every
little town and hamlet in the county,
each becoming one of the units of the
district body as they may be later ap-
portioned. This plan in the counties
where an organization has already
been perfected seems the most feasible
and is achieving remarkable results
as it involves the complete co-opera-
ton of the proper local authorities and
of the vital activities and conditions
of the county.
Thursday the Wood County Board
passed a resolution making $4,000 a
valuable for the home defense league,
or council, to be used by them in case
of emergency during the summer. We
are informed by Postmaster Robert L.
Nash that Hon. P. Bloodgood, presi-
dent of the state association of Mil
waukee, and state field secretary,
Friedrich N. Whitney, of the Univer-
sal Training League, will be here on
Tuesday night to address the people
Of Grand Rapids on this subject May

WIRELESS
OUTFIT
IS SEIZED

A wireless telegraph outfit owned
by a couple of ingenious young fell
lows living at Mann, three miles from
Marshfield, was swooped down upon
by detachment of Co. A. w. n. G.,
of Marshfield, led by United States
secret service agent, last Saturday.
The presence of the wireless equip
rent, which was exceptionally good
and capable of sending and receiving
messages long distances, even as far
as Cuba, was known for sometime. It
was finally brought to the attention of
the federal agent, who, when the place
was visited, ordered the outfit torn
down. While there was no question a.
bout the innocence of the boys, the dan
ger was in the possible use of the sta
ton by enemies of the country.
