Obituary
JOHN C. BURNS.

John G.. Burns, whose home is on
Blaine street, passed away last Sunday
evening after an illness covering a
number of years. Six years ago he
was operated upon for appendicitis and
since that time his health has not been
what it was before. Mr.. Burns was
born near Pittston, Pa, Sept, IL, 1912.
In the fifties he came out west and set
tied near Edgerton. In 1869 he was
married to Anna Quigley of Edgerton.
In the seventies they spent some years
in Milwaukee. Returning to Edger-
ton, Mr.. Burns went into the tobacco
business for Geo. Underhill who at that
time represented Schroede & Bonn. He
STAYED with this firm for about ten
years. After that he became connected
with the tobacco business of the Amer
lean Cigar Co., first at Sparta, and
later at Brodhead, and finally at Ed
gerton. About thirty years of his life
were devoted to the tobacco business.
He leaves to mourn him his wife and
six children, two children having gone
before him. The children are: Bern
ard, Thomas of Readstown, James,
Mary, William who lives in Montana,
and Mrs. M. Roherty of Stoughton.
These were all present at the funeral
except William. Mr.. Burns was a
member of the T. A. &. B. society and
of st. Joseph's church. The funeral
services were held at St. Joseph's
church last Wednesday morning at 10
O'Clock, the Rev. Father Harlin Of
ficiating, and the remains were laid to
rest in the Catholic cemetery.

Burglar Alarm System Installed.

Last week the Tobacco Exchange bank
installed the latest and most approved
type of burglar alarm system on the
market. The system is very complete.
The walls, ceiling and floor of the vault
are lined with copper wiring and at no
point can an entrance be made, being
so constructed and installed that any
attempt to enter the vault from any
direction will Immediately sound the
gong or alarm which is contained in a
large outside housing. This gong hous-
ing is also so constructed that any
tampering with it, such as turning q
bolt, or attempting to cut the cable
leading to it, will sound the alarm.
The vault door, in addition to the
connections with the bolts through the
combinations, has what is called the
Thermo- Electric attachment, which will
sound if the door is heated to certain
temperature. This will prevent any
attempt to burn through the vault
door.
The entire system is controlled by an
electrical timer located in the vault.
This is set on definite hours for OPEN
ing and closing, and if the dial on the
vault door is turned a fraction either
way after certain closing hour, it will
result in the sounding of the gong.
The O. B. McClintock Co. OF Mime
apolis, Mimi, manufacturers of this
up-to-date burglar alarm system, not
only guarantee the system to do it's
duty at all times, but also offer a
standing reward of $500 for the arrest
and conviction of any party attacking
any bank using this system.

Country Club Meeting.

Organization meeting of the Edgerton
Country club will be held Thursday
evening, April %, 1920, at 8 O'Clock at
Culton Memorial hall in the public
library. All subscribing members are
urgently requested to attend. AS mem
bership to this organization is open to
all citizens of Edgerton, an invitation
to attend is extended to any person who
is interested.
The club activities will not be con-
fined to golf. Everyone interested In
the development of the community
should be present. The Country club
has at its disposal one of the most
beautiful locations for such purpose IN
the state of Wisconsin. All that is
necessary to make this club success
is the realization of the possibilities
that exist in the develoment of these
grounds A number of nonresidents
who have seen the grounds have volun-
tarily asked to become members.
The committee of fifteen will render
their report of work done and neces-
sary to be done.
