REMOVE BIRDS
AND PICTURES
FROM The GLEN
Personal Property Belonging to the
Late Father Durward Brought
From Farm to Baraboo

Thousands of visitors have found
pleasure in looking upon the paint
ings, mounted birds and animals in
the stone building and cottage at Dur
wards glen. They have been brought
from the farm to the home of Miss
Mary Durward, 215 Sixth street, and
in the final settlement will be distrib-
uted among the heirs, or other disposi-
ton made of them.
The pictures were painted by the
late B. l. Durward, artist and poet, and
by his son Charles and daughter, Miss
Mary. There are a few others by.
friends. The birds and animals were
mounted by Wilfred T. Durward, now
on the Pacific coast, state of Wash
ington. One Of the birds is a pas
senger pigeon, now extinct. Others
are rarely found in this vicinity and
after thirty years or more are in ex-
ceIlent condition
After the death Of the parents the
property passed to Father j. T. Dur
ward. The paintings, birds and ami

farm until their removal to Baraboo.
Father Durward died last September
and some disposition will be made of
the real estate and personal property.
Father Durward in his will offered the
real estate, 40 acres in the glen farm
and so acres in the Blackjack place,
to the Catholic church, provided an
institution be established there. OFF,
GERS of the church came from Milwau-
kee and looked over the property, but
decided not to accept, it is stated by
those acquainted with the matter.
The property is too far from rail
road is the main reason for not ac-
cepting.
The pictures, mounted birds and
animals have attracted the attention
of many guests at the glen. They
had been there so long they seemed
part of the place, and future visit
sors will regret they may no longer be
seen there.
The personal property was brought
by H. Siggelkow in a truck Miss
Hannah Gardner of Milwaukee, a
cousin of Miss Durward superintend-
ing the task.
Mr.. and Mrs J. H. Dudley have re-
sided on the glen farm and looked
after the property for about fourteen
years. They contemplate moving to
Baraboo, but this has not been def
initely determined.

During the evening services the pas
tor in charge stated that there was in
the congregation one of the followers
of his sect who had such great faith
him, feeling sure he was immune from
the poison, as st. Paul at one time
was immune from the strike of a SER
pent.
Harrison at once came forward, ac-
cepting the invitation, and box con-
tanning a rattlesnake was opened in
view of the congregation. Harrison
caught the snake just below the neck
and the rattler struck him five times
in rapid succession on the arm be-
tween the elbow and wrist The min
ister stated that Harrison had allowed
himself to be bitten before and surely
there would be no harm to result from
the bites. Harrison was at once seized
with sickness and, after lingering two
days, died despite the attention and
treatment of physicians. Harrison

For the past two days the football squad has been out on the gridiron for practice and within this period the thirty candidates have made rapid progress in the fundamentals of the game The material is good but none of them have had any real football ex perience and it will take some time for them to get whipped into shape. Only two of the veterans of 1917 are now in school They are Wilcox. who was tackle on the team. and Suplicli who played end.
 Coach Mckay has been putting the candidates through the fundamentals of the game and the boys show con erable promise. Morgan, a recruit from New London, has the mallings of a good lineman as has Croker. Wilcox and Crowen. Chase and BiXby have been taking care of the ends and each of these lads show up well. The ba elk field will this year be lighter than years previous but will abound in speed. Ringland is the most promis ing candidate for this field together with Reed and Wilcox.
 The schedule has not been fully made up yet but there will be at least nine games with teams that in years past have had strong regulations.
