DEMOCRATIC SPEECH.

Senator Pittman of Nevada address
ed a large audience at the Opera House
Tuesday evening in the interest Of
Joseph e. Davies democratic candidate
for the United States senate. The
senator is an effective stump speaker.
He is master Of the popular style and
the reasons for his elevation to The
senate at an early age are easily seen.
The talk naturally was mostly upon
the war situation with lucid explana-
tions of the Berger candidacy Offering
nothing to the country but the humili.
alton of Russia. He handled the hy-
phen question frankly and without
gloves but withal in such spirit of
fairness that no loyal citizen could be
offended. He explained at length the
import of Mr.. Lenroot's vote for the
McLemore resolution in the house OF
representatives which he characterized
as vote 10 say tnat the German gov
ernment was right and the president
wrong in negotiations then pending in
volving vital rights of America. In
contrast TO this he gave at length Mr..
Davies's career and urged the election
of Mr.. Davies in the interest of sup
porting the president in preserving the
honor of America nd bringing the ma
ton successfully through this great
crisis, Ii g spoke for an hour and a
half and was frequently given loud
applaus.
Superintendent of Schools Zimmers,
an intimate friend of candidate Davies
at Watertown in their youth, presided
at the meeting.

SPRING FLOODS.

For few days every spring when
the ice comes down the river there are
ice jams where the two railroad bridges
cross the river at the old glue factory
with consequent flooding of low lands
above. The William Rahr duck "farm"
suffers nearly every year. Last Fri
day the condition was worse than has
been experienced for many years. Ice
piled up and the strong current jammed
it TO the bottom of the river forming
dam that raised water to new heights.
Many hundreds of young ducks had to
oe taken to places Of safety and the
old jokes about the ducks drowning
were brought out and exhibited. The
local tug Artic was In the dry dock and
hurry up call was sent to Sheboygan
for the big tug Peter Reiss. The tug
and dynamite broke the jam and the
waters in few hours receded to safe
level. The new power plant of the
High Falls Co., opposite the Mailing
Co. elevator near the Stolze homestead
had been seriously menaced. Water
was within few inches OF the floors.
AT Silver Lake unprecedented high
water was experienced. The water
vas six inches deep on the floor of the
bar room at the Ouker place. While
the conditions were serious they did
not last long.

Entertainments OF Iona Auo.

Early in the fifteenth century bur-
lesques of great extravaganza were
introduced into the castles of the no.
bility, and even at court, where the
noble ladies and lords were no doubt
bored with the heretofore solemn cele-
bration of the English Christmas.
Thes buffooneries were taken part In
by all the retainers in the household,
and elaborate costumes were provid-
ed, some of them of Oriental splendor.
In the sixteenth century, however
these plays became more refined and
were known as masques, from the
masks still worn by the performers.
They resemble the private theatricals
or drawing-room plays of the present
time.
