ENDS
SUNDAY EVENING

The chautauQua came to close on
Sunday evening. The weather from
beginning to end was excellent, there
being but few showers to mar the
pleasure of the occasion.
The program on Sunday was car
ried out as planned. The man from
India, the musicians and entertainers
all filed their roles.
Sunday Afternoon
The Sunday afternoon chautauqua
meeting was opened with prayer by
Rev. J. Lloyd Smith. The Lyceum
orchestra, composed of eight young
women, furnished delightful music
to a large and appreciative audience.
The Palmers predominated in num-
bers, but all were equally beaut full
and entertaining. The story told by
Miracle Mary of a Salvation Army
worker, of the saving of Joe Conden
from sinful life was we'll and graph
ically told. Joe had served, two
terms in Sing Sing when he fell I'M
der the influence of Mary, whose
Christian conduct, patience and large
faith. in God helped him to feel that
even he would find forgiveness.
Mary was a believer in miracles and
when Joe was arrested for robbery
committed by someone else, convict
ed and sent to prison again, she i'm
plored him not to lose faith; he would
in some way be cleared.
A moving picture show was given
for the prisoners on Christmas Day
| in the prison where Joe was confined
and Mary went there to spend the
day with Joe. During the show Joe's
face was seen and recognized by his
comrades, in a scene taken of a crew
of men working on Long Island at the
time the robbery was committed in
New York, and by this miracle Joe
was freed, they were married and
went out into new life.
The lecture by DR.. Ira Landrith on
"Level-Best Living" was one of the
best ever given in Baraboo. DR..
Landrith is sympathetic, forcefu!
speaker. He said that this age is the
age of the young, when large respon
sibilities are being laid on young
shoulders, and to meet and live up
to the requirements Of the times
man must be morally clean, physical
1y we'll developed, with mind broad
enough to see above and beyond the
immediate future.
He advised all women to be proud
they were women and not try to act
like men, and paid great honor to
women who worked outs de of the
home when it was necessary for her
to make her living but regretted that
so many who did not need the money
filed places, and by so doing reduced
wages and made it harder for those
who were obliged to work
He spoke especially of boys and
advised parents to fellowship with
their boys, and to be especially patient
with them at the period of from ten
to fifteen years. that boys suffered
more and said less about it than most
parents realize.
He drew a livi pictured of Opportu-
nifty on a mountain top above the
snow line and spoke eloquently of
how she called to men and women to
come up to enjoy the beauties of
life filed with results of well-directed
effort worked out to completion.
He paid a high tribute to the old
time country school teachers and doc
tors and regretted that so few in COM
parison of our young came up to their
opportunities. He said the old-time
doctors cured people Of disease and
Baraboo weekly news. [volume] (Baraboo, Wis.) 1912-197?, 1917-07-19

the modern physician works to pre-
vent them.
He summed up his talk by STANG
that America, like her Lord, has been
called to serve her people, and her
success will depend on her thorough
ness in preparedness and so it will be
with individuals. The man or woman
to succeed must be we'll prepared to
meet circumstances as they come,
and that preparation must begin while
young 1t takes many years to build
character.
Sunday Evening
DR.. Landrith spoke again in the
evening, the musicians and reader al
so appearing. Dr. Landrith is a
southerner, a prohibitionist and a
lively thinker Many of the local vet
Grams were present and he told them
pleasantly how they came down
south, were entertained, and freed the
negro. Then the colored man found
new slavery-rum. Now there must
be another fight to free both blacks
and whites from the power Of King
Alcohol He predicted that the reign
of booze would end by 1920.
He said he does not believe in war,
but since the first was thrust upon
us there is nothing to do but show
Germany and the rest of the world
that little nations have rights, and
big nations must not become MUIR
derers and outlaws.

chance to keep within the speed limit
but if they do not think enough of the

be taught in other ways. From now
on no speeding will be tolerate on

MUENz IN THE TOLLS.


For number Of years the village
Of Hague has had . more or less dis
tinguished gentleman ~ whom it was
said that he was prone to pick up a
goodly supply Of sheckels with little
exertion by notorioualH defying the
prohibition law Of II state. This
gentleman's name wasa L. P. Muenz.
When the railroad record was checked
up about two years asb it was found
that Muenz had receivSd hundreds of
cases of beer and q vast srpply of al
cohol in less than ys6r. When the
railroads were forced 70 cut OFT ship
ping intoxic. nts to blind p:ggers, it is
said Muenz installed sort of dray
line for the importing q the required
supply from Herreid, scross the line
in South Dakota. Musnz at one time
operated in his building used exclus-
lively for his illegal saloon business.
When rumblings Of trotble began to
be heard, he purchased he drug store
at Hague and proceeded to equip it
most handsomely. II vas said by
some that Muenz had thus improved
his position to some extsat by appeal
ing to the pride Of tie Hague people
in drug store equippd in a first
class condition.
During the incumbeney of the for
mer states attorney : cnmplaint was
made in regard to MuenE, it being al
legged that young boys hecame intox-
icated on his liquor as1 then made
disturbances At church meetings. A
warrant was issued, hut never served.
During the 1916 campaign the Rec
ord contended that Muanz was the
king of the blind-piggi1g operations
in Emmons county. tn states at
torney, up for re-electio9, contended
that the county was in ~ best shape
ever. Shortly after thss first Of the
present year the new sAte's attor-
ney. Mr.. Cameron, sent SAeri6 Mein-
hover to Hague to pick nj the gentle
man. The sheriff found him III in bed
and unable to be moved. Eventually,
however, he recoyered. The matter
was allowed to drift quietly Tor : cou-
pie Of months, and MuelS apparently
came to the conclusion xat the dan
ger was over. SuddenlS. Wednesday

satisfaction with such umusual pro-
ceeding on the part Of the sheriff, he
came. He WAS given a preliminary
examination. bound over to the dis
trict court, and, we understand, an In
junction placed upon his building.
The open blind-pigging is almost
entirely thing Of the past in the
county, and this arrest of Muenz will
no doubt discourage any others from
re-engaging in the business. 1t is
pretty certain that if Muenz can't get
immunity, no others can And those
who proclaimed during the last cam
paign that the law wouldn't be en-
forced any way have been proven to
have been more or less considerably
mistaken.
