Lunney for the alleged theft of a bar
Der pole. Lynaugh, he said, is alleged
to have told Lunney: "It's a good
thing for you that I didn't get close
enough to get shot at you. You
think that you are smart, running
away from an officer in this way"
Some one in the crowd laughed when
the officer made this statement and
Schrenk testified that the officer
turned to the crowd and said, Don't
get funny or I'll shoot you too
The barber pole which caused the
trouble that resulted in the death OF
Jandorf is worth between $40 and Is,
according to the testimony of Henry
Heine, Reedsburg barber, who assert
ed that he first saw the pole in Chi
cago about twenty-five years ago
when it was used in front of a shop
by his brother. He himself used the
pole at Reedsburg about eleven years

Esther Burke, Mrs. Florence Kidder,
and Mrs. Harry Alexander, all eye
witnesses of the shooting, testified
during the trial Wednesday They
practically corroborated the testimony
of previous witnesses.

university students, testified that af-
er Lynaugh had arrested Lunney he
told the crowd to keep back.
F. E. Wolfe said the crowd was larg-
or than thirty-five, as testified by
O'Neil. This testimony is in relation

around Lynaugh and was admitted to
determine whether the crowd was a
mob or orderly gathering.

Coal at County Farm


Coal at County Farm
The committee to settle with coun.
ty officers reported the sum of s24..
683.27 had been paid the past year
at the county farm for coal and re-
commended a committee be appointed
to investigate.
Poor Commissioner w. H. Ode of
Baraboo was called in and stated that
it was necessary at times to purchase
coal wherever possible and at a high
price. Moreover he stated the freight
rate was much higher than in the
past. As to the heating plant at the
farm, Mr. Ode said he believed it was
modern in every way and tat an ex.
pert engineer was in charge. No one
seemed to know whether more tons
of coal than usual had been burned
during the year. The superintendent
does practically all of the buying and
the feasibility of committee pur-
chasing all of the coal for the county
was discussed. Chairman Andrews
stated that County Clerk Cooper had
bought the coal for the courthouse at
a low figure about $4,000.
Opening the Courthouse
1t developed there has been some
friction about keeping the courthouse
closed Saturday afternoons during
July and August. The board decided
the building be kept open every Satur-
day afternoon in the future except le-
gal holidays.
The road from North Freedom
through La Rue was placed on the
county highway system.
The board adjourned Saturday af-
