STOP
IN THIS CITY
tFrom Fridays Daily

The two airplanes which have been
giving exhibitions at Portage during
the Columbia county fair, have
come to Baraboo and will be here for
a few days before leaving for Chicago
where they will be used in sensational
moving picture scenes. Both planes
are part of the Sheldon Airline out
fit of Sheldon, Illinois, and recently
did some astonishing. work at the Bea
yer Dam fair The nidair stunts con-
.sist Of parachute jumps, changing
from plane to plane, wing walking
and other features. While attempting
one of the stunts at Beaver Dam, the
wings of the two planes became lock
ed together and nearly resulted in ia
tai accidents to the pilots and their
aircraft
o. B. Freeman is chief pilot Of the
aeroplanes stopping here, while ] f.
Hyde, Canadian, with four years
service in France and many air vic
tories to his credit, pilots one of the
machines. The risky stunts performed
en- the ships while in mid air are done
by Forest Reese, an understudy for
Daredevil Holder, of national fame.
The field west Of the old Ringing
farm on Lynn avenue is being used
as a landing place and tomorrow Of
ternoon the visitors will give an un-
usual exhibition of daredeviltry be-
ginning about 1:30. In order to help
defray expences while here they will
also carry passengers who wish TO
enjoy the novelty of an aeroplane
ride Already several Baraboo persons
nave made the trip. Among them
Miss Lois Biege and Miss Madeline
Jones who guided the pilots from the
Henry Alexander field where they
first lighted to their present landing
place. Orriel Philbrick, who was in
the aviation service and to whom an
air ride is no novelty, also went up.
On account Of Baraboo being on the
direct line between Chicago and St
Paul considerable interest is being
manifested securing a suitable landing
field here. Mr.. Philbrick is already
making arrangements to carry line
Of Curtis aeroplane parts as it is be-
lleVed that Baraboo will be frequent
ly visited by the bird men.

OPPORTUNITYFOR
CHOICE BARGAINS

Merchants in the big cities have
nothing on Baraboo firms when it
comes to price reductions and real
bargains. Not only has the market
been falling along certain lines but
now comes several merchants with
real bottom price bargains. Until
the pre-war level is reached there is
bound to be more or less fluctuation
and there may be a reaction on some
goods-an increase in price.
For number or days Jensen &
Jones have been advertising price re-
duction on their first anniversary
sale. When one can go right into
a store in his home town and buy re-
duced priced clothing, what more
does he want Many are taking ad-
vantage of the anniversary sale OF
this firm.
At the Berg store there is clear
ance sale on all lines Of dry goods.
This sale comes just at the time when
goods are needed to replenish the
hcme and the exceptional offer is
being embraced by many old and
new customers The long list of bar
gains offered is bound to make the
sale a success.
Risley Brothers are offering reduc-
ed prices on large assortment in
their store. The goods offered are
pulling many customers.
Reinking offers many bargains at
an October sale now being held. Pri-
ces here have been reduced. This
firm has long been in business and
handles staples in many lines.
With all these superb charges to buy
goods many people are no doubt hap
py over the opportunity to obtain
merchandise at a real bargain. The
Baraboo merchants are to the front
with exceptional offers and purchas-
ers should encourage them by extend
ing all the patronage possible.

adjust on the pole and despite the
fact that he had just tested the pole
wires and found them non-conduct

strands in such a manner as to com
plete circuit.
The shock knocked Peck from the
pole and he dropped to the ground

FUMBLED BALL
BEATS BARABOO
Local Team Outplays Stoughton
Throughout Most of Game
Loses in Last Ten Minutes

The last few minutes OF play won
for Stoughton Saturday afternoon at
the fair grounds in the football con-
test with the local high school. The
best half of the last quarter over, and
Stoughton failing to make her downs.
kicked the ball to safety in the Bara-
boo thirty yard region. The kick
was received by Captain Buehler who
fumbled the ball and Stoughton half
back picked up the pigskin and ran
for touchdown. Soon after the
touchdown Rooney, sub-quarter for
Baraboo. was put into the game in
place of Rlehler and a series of for
ward passes was used by the local
aggregation in an attempt to tie the
score. The only successful pass was
caught by Rooney himself which
gave Baraboo a slight gain. Soon one
of the passes was intercepted by
Stoughton player who went for an
other touchdown. Score IA to in
favor of Stoughton.
Baraboo players had the edge over
the visitors all through the game,
successfully making their downs on
many occasions, only to lose the
ball on tumble or miss-play. The
local aggregation was three times
within fifteen yards of the Stoughton
goal. The majority of Baraboo's
gains was made through formation
,Al,
little territory by hitting the Baraboo
stonewall line. Passes were not used
by Baraboo until the last few min
utes Of play; Stougnton tried several
forward passes but only gained terri
tory on one. Two of the visitors were
taken out of the game with injuries
and several more were stretched out
at intervals for a short time. None
OF the Baraboo men were hurt al
though it looked as though one of
the Stoughton half-backs was trying
his best to put one or two of the local
aggregation on the mat.

admitted that Baraboo had the

yard line but neither was successful
and had one of the kicks been made,
Baraboo would probably have been
more careful
A week ago Stoughton was defeat
