to the Cave of the Winds.

to the Cave OF the Winds.
1t is useless to attempt to describe
this wonderful cave with its narrow
passages and roomy chambers, coated
with the glistening formtions and
containing the strange stalagmites
an stalagtites-som joining to-
gether. The guide told us that it
takes 100 years to form one, inch of
stalagite and showed us one that was
forty-one inches long. The cave is,
all electrically lighted and there
are also provisions for emergency
lights Two little boys discovered
this cave some years ago but did not
go far before they decided that it
was too dark for them.
Stratford Made a Stake
We ate our lunch with the Texas
friends in Stratford park, a beautiful
large park donated to the city of
Colorado Springs by Mr.. Stratford,
the man who first discovered gold in
paying quantities in that region. He
was once a penniless man and had to
be grub staked" when he went out
to survey.
In the afternoon we went up to
Seven Falls. Here one has to walk
up steps and steps in order to get a
view of the seven separate cascades
of the falls, but the beauty Of the
scene is well worth the effort A
short distance from the top of the
falls is the spot from which Helen
Hunt Jackson is said to have gained
her inspiration for the book Ramona.
Leave the Mountains
Much as we should have liked to
stay longer among the mountains, we
felt that we must be getting on our
way. SO started south once more 1t
was in Colorado that we first saw the
prairie dogs. The little creatures
with their rat like tails would sit up
as our squirrels do when eating
nuts and do not seem very timid. We
journeyed almost one hundred miles
away from noble Pixies Peak before
losing sight of it. Had we not ex-
perienced this ourselves we should
not have believed it possible. Most
o fthe trip from Canon City to Trini-
dad was rather uninteresting as there
was little to be seen but grazing
lands and irrigation bitches.
At Trinidad we were told to fill
up with gas, oil an water and there
after to keep filled up.

MUCH WORK DONE
BY LOCAL CLUB
What DID the Commercial Club
Do For Baraboo?

The board members of directors of
the Commercial club met at the
city hall and have partly perfected
their organization.
The exact scope of the clubs fut-
ure activities is, as yet, undetermined,
depending. as it does, on financial
support of the citizens OF Baraboo
A committee has been appointed to
solicit everyone for dues, and they
will soon begin their work.
In the meantime everyone should
acquaint himself with the record of
the Commercial club and determine
his future attitude towards it, so as
not to detain the members committee
when they call, longer then necessary.

8. Because Baraboo was placed on
the main trunk line running through
the state, the Warner road between
Baraboo and Devils Lake was plann-
ed and is carried through, so that
tourists and our citizens can reach
Wisconsin state park.
To accomplish what has been stated
+, above a certain amount OF funds were
necessary and we ask the members
II they do not think this money was
well spent. Without the efforts Of
an association these beneficial re-
suits could not have been acquired for
Baraboo.
Now, since Baraboo is so fortunate
; ly located and with its ample supply
Of electric power many more indus
tries can be located here. On ac-
count of the labor troubles in the larg-
er cities industries cannot be secur-
ed unless an organization is in Bara-
boo to push this matter.
1t will be to the interest Of the prop
erty owners and citizens in general to
have this organization.

CLEMENCEAU IS BETTER
Suffered No Adverse Effects
From Strenuous Exertions.
Saw Forty Persons. Which Doctors
Consider Excessive for Man With
Bullet in Back.

Paris. Feb 24.-Premier Clemenceau
rested well during the night and seem
ingly suffered no adverse effects from
his strenuous exertions of the day be-
fore. During the day he insisted on
seeing no less than 40 persons, which
the doctors considered excessive for a
man of his age with a bullet in his
back
All the physicians agreed the action
of the premier's lungs should be re-
duced as movement causes the edge
of the wound to rub against each
other. The only way of effecting this
was an injection of morphine, which
no one cared to propose to the pre-
mier foreseeing how he would receive
the suggestion. At last DR.. Laubry
volunteered, says the Petit Journal.
He appealed to the premier as a
brother DOCTOR" but NJ. Clemenceau
sprang up, seized the physician by the
shoulders and shouted: What, what
morphine, morphine. You want to fin
ish me? Are you in the pay of the
Bolsheviki?"
DR.. Laubry threw up his hands and
said There you are. We want to
give your chest rest and you nearly
burst it,"

ASKS FOR 100000 men
Baker Appears Before Senate
Military Committee.
Secretary Urges Large Temporary
Force Owing to Unsettled Euro
pean Conditions.

Washington, Feb. 24.-Establish-
ment of temporary army of 100000
men instead of 175,000 as provided for
in bill agreed upon by senate and
house conferees was urged before the
senate military committee by Secre-
tary Baker and General March, chief
OF staff. The committee is consider.
ing the billion dollar army appropria-
tion measure recently passed by the
house.
Secretary Baker and General March
appeared at the request of the com
mittee, which is seeking to iron out
differences growing out of the house
action in eliminating from the appro
tion measure legislation for an army
Of 100000 but retaining in the bill
certain appropriations designed to
support an army of that size.
Secretary Baker told the committee
permanent military establishment
could not be decided upon until after
the peace conference had concluded its
work and because of the unsettled
European conditions it was difficult tc
determine the size of temporary
army. He thought force of 100000
would be adequate, however.

TO SINK GERMAN SHIPS
Razing of Island of HeIgoIand
Also Practically Certain.
British Naval Delegates to Peace Con-

Objects.

London, Feb. 24.-The proposal to
sink the German warships now in the
Scapa-Flow, 1t is now generally stated
in the English newspapers. is practic-
ally certain to be accepted by the
Peace Conference. 1t is also proposed,
1t is said, to raZe the Island OF Helgo-
land to the water level. According to
the Mail both proposals. which orig
mated in the British admiralty, will
be discussed at Paris In the next few
days.
~ Ships to Be Sunk.
The destruction of the ships is ad-
vocated on the ground that their d.
vision among the victors would cause
heartburnings. The vessels, number

eight cruisers and so destroyers prob
ably will be escorted by Allied fleets
to a deep part of the Atlantic west.

sunk. The question OF dealing with
the surrendered submarines will be
considered separately - whether they
shall be preserved.
Another point for which the British
naval delegates will press at the Peace
conference, says the Mail, will be the
razing Of Helgoland. This would be a
stupendous undertaking ~ the island
is about one-hfth OF a mile square and
at its highest point 100 feet, while the
coast is fortified with concrete and
steel.
Hun Powder Would Be Used.
An enormous quantity Of explosives
would be required but, continues the
newspaper, it would be the best way
OF consuming the German reserves OF
high explosives.

Allied Soldiers Learn They Are to
Be Recalled From Northern
Russia.
PEOPLE ARE ANXIOUS
Official Circles and Population Are
Wondering Whether Other Troops
Will BE Sent or the Campaign
Abandoned.

Archangel, Feb. 24.-The troops JOY
fully received the official news from
Washington that the Americans in
North Russia are TO be withdrawn at
the earliest possible moment in the
spring, but official circles and the Rus
sian people are anxious to know
whether other troops will be sent to
replace them or whether it means the
abandonment of this front.
Navigation is now closed, and ac-
cording to naval advices, June will be
the earliest month for the opening of
the ice foes.
All Are SeIectives.
The American troops affected by the
announcement are the 339th infantry
and one battalion of the 310th en-
gineers, all draft forces entitled to
rehabilitation after the conclusion OF
the war. There is considerable specu
lation in Archangel whether they will
be replaced by regulars or marines.
Dewitt c. Poole, Jr., counsellor oi
the American embassy, has issued the
following statement:
In connection with the Washing
ton announcement, the American EN-
bassy in Archangel states it under
stands this announcement relates. only
to the disposition of the American
troops now here. 1t does not deter
mine one way or another the genera
question of the continued presence oi
an American force in Northern Rus
sia, nor is it understood to disclose
a decision as to the future American
policy in Russia.
Decision Up to Conference.
Further determination of this
awaits a further decision by the Peace
conference at Paris
From a consultation with compe
tent transportation authorities it ap
pears that with normal ice conditions
the earliest possible moment at which
considerable bodies of troops can be

WAR ON LIQUOR SMUGGLING
Injunction Brings More Drastic Action
Against "Rum Business"

Detroit, Mich, Feb. 24-Armed with
a blanket injunction, the state con-
stabulary waged more drastic war
than ever on the rum runners" and
$50 mounted police are now patrolling
the southern corner of the state in an
effort to turn back the smugglers from
Ohio and Illinois.
An injunction, according to the at
torney general, was in the nature of a
riot procedure designed to fit the emer-
gency created by the overthrow of the
Damon act by the supreme court.
In spite of the activity of federal
agents in Toledo and the police in De-
troit, thirsty Detroiters continued
their pilgrimage to the Ohio city.
