Thou art certain to be met;
Then, of course, thy streams in sight

When I'm dressed UP in my best.
That's the time thy power to test,
Then thou tak'st a sudden cue,
Deluging me through and through!

To stop drinking beer and schnapps,
So I'll choose the pisest part

JUDGE HILL TO
MOVE OFFICE

County Judge-elect James H. Hill
mas decided to move his office from
the First National Bank building to
the one owned by the c. E. Ryan es-
tate Since he has been elected to
the office of county judge, he does not
feel that he should be connected with
a firm.
AS soon as he is discharged, Captain
M Lamar expects to become assocl-
ated with F. R. Bentley. He has
moved into the Bentley residence.
Attorney John NJ Kelley, who devotes
all of his time to the Ringing circus
firm, withdrew some time ago, and B.
C. Bentley recently went to Owen,
Wis. The election of Mr.. Hill to the
office of county judge made it neces-
sary that he withdraw sooner or later
and he thought best to do so at this
time.

DAY
IS HOTTEST IN
LAST so YEARS
No Temperature Higher Regis
tered for May 80, Since Record
Begins, in 1869 at Madison

The hottest day of the year, and the
hottest Memorial Day ever recorded
by weather authorities in Madison
was registered Friday when the mer-
curry at in the afternoon reached 81
in the shade. The same may be said
of Baraboo. The nearest approach
since 1869, when the record begins,
was in 1874; the temperature on Me-
mortal day of that year reached a
maximum of 80.
The lowest temperature reached
since 1869 on May 80 was in 1889,
which had only 35.
The heat yesterday was unusually
disagreeable because of the fact that
a haze hung before the sun and
made the air sticky and oppressive
Although the sun was in sight prac-
tically the whole IA hours between
rising and setting, the day was char
acterized by the weatherman as
cloudy.
The normal temperature for May 81
is 63. Yesterday was just that at Z
a. m, and "a at last night.
AS a result of the heat, parks and
ice-cream parlors were both popular,
while innumerable cars scampered
about the streets and into and out OF
the country districts.

CANADA MAN
AGAIN IN COURT

G. E. NJ. Churchill, who claims to
be from Canada, has been arrested
again and is in the county jail. The
sheriff went to Chippewa Falls and
brought him to Baraboo on a charge
OF obtaining money under false pre-.
lenses. A Baraboo woman claims he
sold her some property in Canada, for
which she gave Liberty bonds as pay
ment. Later she claimed that she
had been defrauded Churchill was
brought before Justice HaIsted,
waived examination, and was bound
over to circuit court. Churchill is
the man who represented that Mr..
and Mrs. G. w Burdick were heirs
to large estates in England, and was
in court here before.

with a smile"-so Private John
Osterberg, of Schenectady, New York,
went into chat hell over there" and
still with SMILE" far Drawer and
more significant smile this time, he
reached New York city the other day
on his way home, says the Literary
Digest. His smile meant, this last
time, that, although he had been
called upon to pay terrific price for
his devotion to the ideals for which
America fought, he was so far from
being downhearted that he could pass
off his loss with bit of wisely humor-
Gus verse. The spirit of the American
wounded lights up the letter that, he
wrote from New York city to his par
ents in Schenectady, breaking the
news of his luck-which was either
unusually good or unusually bad, &C
cording to the way in which one looks
at it. At least, as he points out, it is
something to be the only one left alive
of five men who were wounded at the
same time and in the same way that
he was. His letter, little classic in
it's way, runs as follows:
