c. A. Holman, the letter carrier
florist, says a citizen from Sank City
was in Baraboo a few days ago and
when asked when the village would
go dry replied; when HI freezes
over" After the laugh went round
the old gentleman added that al
though he liked to have his little tin
pail filled about twice a day he did
not care a great deal when the last
beer key was rolled out Of town.

c. A. Dyke has sent from Florida
a newspaper to r. B. Griggs which
tells Of monster and strange fish
that was caught near Tampa. The
creature was As feet long, % feet in
circumference and weighed about 30,
900 pounds. The distance between
the tips of the tail was 10 feet and
when opened there was found in the
stomach a living octopus weighing
LOO pounds. 1t required II barrels
Of formaldyhide to preserve it.When
caught all of the undertakers in the
region were asked to preserve the
fish but gave it up and a specialist
from the Smithson Institution at
Washington was summoned. The
hide was three inches thick and
from this it is thought it could live
at a great depth. When the thing
was caught several haTpOons were
thrust into it, a lot Of lead was pepp-
cred into it and a number Of boats
were smashed in the fight. The paper
says it required three days to con-
shore. 1t is thought there must have
been a subterranean upheaval which
sent it to the TOP and that it then
could not sink itself to the lower
depths. Nothing like it has ever been
seen and it may be the last living spe-
cmen of some prehistoric species
which once inhabitated the seas Mr..
Dyke will reach Baraboo in few day
and can give further particulars.

PARIS PAPER SAYS
SUBMARINE CONCESSIONS
ARE MERE PRETENCE

Paris, Oct %. tUavas) The Ger
mans are hoping by their discussions
of an armistice to substitute General
Pershing for Marshal Foch as the
military leader who will state the
terms, the Petit journal says. This
newspaper adds that it is sufficient
to point out that President Wilson
has been warm partisan of unified
command. 1t remarks that only the
supreme commander has the right to
lay down the conditions of an armis-
tice.
The announced German concessions
respecting submarine warfare ara
merely prctence the Petit Journal
continues, inasmuch as the subma-
rine campaign is a definite failure.
particularly in view of the loss Of
Ostend and Zeebrugge.
The most general comment in the
press upon the German reply is that
the enemy is attempting to escape an
admission OF defeat by causing paci-
fist agitations in Entente countries.
With this end in view the German
wireless is sending out fantastic
stories of pacifist manifestations in
Lyons, Marseilles and other impor-
tant cities and of imminent strikes.

There is not a word in the note which

Nevertheless, by remnant Of that

our adversary seeks still to deceive
himself by lulling himself against all

in deluding President Wilson by
sophisms and equivocations.'
