Plenty of Hunting, But No Fish
ing

MRS. JOnn Howard Oh AuduS udS
received the following letter from her
brother, Corporal George Pierce, who
is a. member of Co. A. in France.
Just a few lines to let you know
that I am o. X. and got your letter
yesterday | suppose John had some
fishing trip, didn't he? | wish | could
have been along with him. We have
lots of hunting over here but no fish
ing. l suppose you thought had for
gotten to write yOu didn't you?
Well, we have been in the front for a
while and just came back to the sec"
ond the other day I have more time
to write now. I could have written
before, but I always thought of some
thing that should be done just as [
would get ready to write to you.
The artillery is banging away to-
night and believe me they send over
some big berthas when they get start
ed. They make regular cellars in the
ground.
Tomorrow is Sunday but not for us
we have to work just the same. Any
thing seems to be fair in war times
we have been having some fine wealth
er up to the present date. But to-
night it looks as though it was getting
ready for a rain. The rumble Of the
big guns makes a person think OF a
thunder storm. It sounds all right at
a distance but it is hell when they
get the correct range.
How did you celebrate the Fourth
It was very quiet over here, nothing
doing all day long. We thought that
old Fritz might serenade us but he
never fired a shot So the day passed
very quitely. They are doing lot of
bombarding all around us tonight.
Well sis, those papers will be a long
time coming but / think they'll get
there O. K. I got letter from Van
Orden the other day saying that my
allotment had arrived O. K. Just as
soon as you get those papers I'll feel
a lot better Some of the boys folks
Just received them and others haven't
so far, you see there are so many to
make out that it takes a long time to
get them sent out. You can Let me
know just as soon as they come and
if you don't get them within a rea,
sonable length of time I'll speak to
the captain about it.
Welf, sister, it is getting dark, and
I'll have to ring off. I hope this letter
finds you folks as we'll and happy as
it leaves the boys of Co. A. Write
soon and give me the news. Love to
all CORP. GEORGE PIERCE.

FROG HOLLOW HEN
DROPS DOUBLE EGG

James Mortimer, The News CORE
sondent from Frog Hollow and Cream
Ridge, near Wonewoc, has sent this
office double egg found by Mrs.
Nathan Mortimer. An outer egg con-
tanned an inner egg, the shells of both
apparently being normal. In break
ing, the hard parts were somewhat dis
placed. The smaller egg is normal, ex-
cept in size. Between the outer and
inner shell there was the usual white
found in eggs. The double affair is
quite a curiosity and not often pro-
duced by fowls.

GERMAN EDITOR
GET 18 MONTHS
Before Judge Evans Admits Vic.
lating Spy Act by Publishing Sc
ditious Matter
(From Saturdays daily.)

Eighteen months at Fort Leaven-
worth was the sentence imposed by
Judge Evans of Baraboo in federal
court at Eau Claire on J. J. Auer, 50,
publisher and editor of Der Herold,
German language newspaper. Auer
pleaded guilty to charges of violating
the espionage act, by publication of
seditious matter and also by failure
to file with the postmaster transla-
tions of articles printed in the Ger
man language in his paper. The in
dictment contained seventy counts.
Four Other Men Sentenced
Stanislaw Janick, Stevens Point,
who pleaded guilty to violating the
espionage act by writing letter,
warning priest against encouraging
army enlistments, declaring it was ir-
religious, was sentenced to year at
Fort Leavenworth.
Judge Evans also sentenced Joseph
Deachman, Port Edwards, Wis, to
six months in the house of correction
and $500 fine for violating the espiOn-
age act by saying: "It is soon COM
ing when Wilson will have to crawl
on his knees and kiss the kaiser's
feet" Emil Schiller Grand Rapids,
was sentenced to two years at Fort
Leavenworth He was convicted un-
der the same act for expressing the
wish that the war would end with the
kaiser as winner. Frank Bolcer, Mil
victed for saying Liberty bonds were
no good and government insurance a
humbug, was sentenced to one year
at Leavenworth and $1,000 fine.

JUST LIKE THE SCOTCH

The Scottish people are thrifty, as
everyone knows. Harry Lauder, the
famous Scottish comedian. is author
ity for the statement that they are as
saving of speech as of silver. This is
the story he told to a Chicago audi
ence in Illustration of the fact:
A man and his wife, who lived in
PEBBLES, had a boy whom they be-
lieved to be mute, for up to his
tenth year he never had said word.
One day his father and he were at
work in the bayfield,, and, getting
thirsty, they made their way toward
a jug of cold tea. The father took the
jug and began to drink. AS he gulped
the tea down slowly the thirsty boy
said:
Hurry up!"
The father put down the jug in
establishment
'Why, TAM" he said, you're talk
in! Why didn't We never speak
afore?"
''Naught to say" said Tam.

BARABOO MEN
HELP ON FARMS

Many Baraboo business men and
others have been doing nobly in as
sisting with the harvesting and some
of them are now aiding with the
threshing. w. E. Rowland, who has
this branch of war work on hand,
says that twenty-five were out one
day doing their best. In one or two
cases where the owner of the farm
was i'll no charge was made, but in
most instances pay was gladly given.
This has shown an excellent, loyal
and neighborly spirit The grain crop
is bountiful this year and every
ounce should be saved Those who
could work in all parts of the country
are giving valuable assistance in the
rural districts. Threshing has COM
menced and the yield is immense. One
farmer who sowed several acres to
wheat last fall lost the crop and soWed
the land to oats. He reports double
yield of this grain.

Nurse Writes From France

T. B. Towle, Baraboo, has received
letter from his sister, Miss Mary

says in part:
This last week we have been some
what busy in spots, but otherwise we
have been rather enjoying a little lull
is our duties. We have now come to
the point where a hundred, more or
less, coming or going, make very
small stir, if they are not very, very
sick. l had one whole day off duty
last Wednesday. 1t was not very
exciting day, but just one of those
lazy days when a girl mends her
clothes, reads a little, writes a little,
sleeps little, and goes down to the

meatless day, so we had fish and as

CHANGE AUTO TAX
At WASHINGTON
Plan to Assess According to Horse
power Instead of Original Cost
of the Machine

The ways and means committee at
Washington cut the proposed war tax
on autos when a levy on the purchase
price was reconsidered. Instead, a
tax has been arranged on the basis of
horsepower The rates are: Twenty
horsepower or less, $40; 21 to 80 horse.
power, $40; 81 to 40 horsepower, $50;
40 horsepower and upward, $50. A
manufacturers tax of 5 per cent is
imposed on motor trucks and auto
wagons.
The horsepower basis was suggest
ed by the treasury department, but the
committee at first preferred the pur
chase price plan, which was estimated
to produce at least $100,000,000 in
revenue The horsepower plan is not
expected to bring in more than half as
much.

Other WAY

Mrs. John Luebke of Greenfield has
received the following letter from
her brother, Albert Schmidtke, who
has been in France for nearly a year:
July 1, 1918.
Dear Sister Laura:
Have received all your letters and
am always very glad to hear from
you. I am real we'll and have been
at the front for some time. No doubt
you have been reading in the papers
what the U. S. marines have been do
ing, so it is no use of my writing
about it.

Some time ago Frank Draper,

carrier, went with a number of others
to Camp Stevens, Oregon. A card
has been received by his relatives but
the whole card was censored-made

BATHING SUITS ARE BRIEF
ON BATHERS AT NEENAH

An ordinance prohibiting bathing in
the Fox river and fixing the length Of
bathing suits was voted down by the
city council at Neenah. Several alder
men said they thought it was so hot
that people were justified in "going

and others expressed the opinion that

it would be unpatriotic to make 'em
wear 'em any lengthier."
