SENDS LETTER
TO Sen. BIRD.
AMIGO GAME & GUN CLUB
ASKS SUPPORT FOR
CONSERVATION

The Amigo Gun and Game club put
in a strong plea for the support of the
conservation of game and fish in nor
thern Wisconsin. The communica-
tion was sent to Sen. Bird and is, in
part, as published in the Amigo Jour
nal, as follows:
"Ans article under the heading old
Timer by Hal C. Evarts, beginning
in the Feb. 19, 1921, issue of the Satur-
day Evening Post, draws vivid pic
ture of the disappearance of our wild
game and particularly the passing OF
the passenger pigeon, buffalo and elk
because the American people did not
realize their responsibility in time to
conserve the wild life by protection.
With the very large trout stream
mileage and hundreds of lakes stocked
with game fish, as we'll as large
area Of northern Wisconsin still form
ing the natural habitat for game the
veto by the governor of the appropri-
alton of $4,000 for the conservation
department on the ground that instead
of keeping wardens employed, the
conservation fund should be used for
building, is of considerable concern to
us.

COUNCIL MEETING
ON TUESDAY NIGHT

The city council met in special ses-
sion Tuesday night. Bids offered on
various city properties were consid-
cred and the Girdwood property, on
Fourth avenue south, was sold to Mrs.
Julia Plisch for $1,000. Another place
known as the Krumrei property on
north Sixth street, owned by the city,
is also to be sold. Several bids were
presented Tuesday night but in the
opinion of the council, none of them
were high enough and the public pro-
perty was instructed to advertise for
sealed bids, to be considered at the
next regular meeting. The council
reserves the right to reject any or
all of the bids. A few other matters
of routine business We're considered.

DEATH OF SECOND OF
WINDECKER TRIPLETS

The Pilot, in its last issue, made
meption of the serious illness of Sgd
ney Windecker, one of the famous
Windecker triplets. He passed away
at his home in Milwaukee on Thurs
day, April 15, 1921. The funeral was
held in Fond du Lac on Saturday, and
Mrs. Sedate Pier of this city, the only
one of the triplets now living, was in
attendance.
Sylvester and Sydney Windecker
and Mrs. Sedate Pier, the triplets,
were born in Louville, N. Y, on June
8. 1874. Five years after their birth
their parents moved to Wisconsin and
for three years resided in Fond du
Lac, after which they moved onto a
farm at Byron, in Fond du Lac county.
Each June the triplets have met and
celebrated their birthday together.
They were known in all parts of the
country, and have many friends who
have aided them in celebrating their
anniversaries. They were very proud
of the distinction of being the Oldest
triplets in the world, and each bore a
deep affection for the Others, and al
ways spent as much time as they pos
sfbly could together.
Sylvester Windecker died at his
home in Byron on the 18th of April,
1915, at the age of 40 years, ten
months and siS days. His death
broke up this family of triplets, the
members of which had become SO
widely known throughout the country
Sydney Windecker, had he lived un-
til June, would have been n years
of age. Mrs. Pier, the surviving mem
ber, has resided in Wausau for IS
years, and has a wide acquaintance in
the city and county.

FRANKLIN SCHOOL NOW
HAS PARENTS ASSN

At meeting held Monday evening
at the Franklin school another Pa
rent-Teachers' association was
formed. This organization has been
in the process of formation for quite
a time, actuated by desire to inn
prove playground conditions at the
Franklin school. This accomplished,
it was considered essential that closer
relations exist between parents and
teachers and the anly means by which
this could be accomplished was
through the maintenance of an asso-
citation such as has been formed. H.
J. Evans, member of the school board,
delivered an excellent address before
the meeting. Edward Beaver was
chosen temporary chairman.

joyed the week was demonstrated by

Vocational School board and to Supt.
Tobey for their cordial generosity in
giving the Short course girls the free

April IL. 1883


The high water of the past week has
caused considerable damage in north
Hern Wisconsin generally Had the
nights been warmer the damage would
have been inestimable. The wagon
bridge between Grand Rapids and
Centralia was carried out and at one
time the town was threatened with
inundation Trains ON the Valley di-
vision of the ST. Paul road were de-
layed az different times during the
week by wash-outs along the line.
Last Saturday afternoon an acci-
dental shooting affray, which might
lave proved fatal, occurred in Ed
Berry's saloon, on Washington street.
It appears that one Richard Hall ex-
posed to view revolver, and John
Berry, the bar tender. wishing to eX-
anime it, snatched it from his hand,
both were standing at the end OF the
bar, and Hall attempted to take the
revolver out of Berrys hand. During
the struggle that followed, the revol-
yer was heard to click and Berry
threw UP his right arm. Almost sim
ultaneously with this action the re-
volYer exploded; the ball going thru
Berry's arm, and striking the ice box,
from which it bounded back to near
where they stood, distance OF twenty
feet. Berry Immediately went up to
DR.. Win Wylie's and had his arm
dressed. Both before and after the ac-
cident the men were the best of
friends. The shooting is conceded to
have been an accident.

F. P. Van Hook, agent for the Byr-

annapolis, and whose main Office is at
226-22S la Sale street, Chicago, ILL.,,
was in this city last week selling the
machines for manufacturing this i'm
proved sheathing, which not only
boards up but laths at the same time.
While here Mr.. Van Hook sold ma
chimes to Curtis Bros. e Co., S. NJ.

Lumber Co. This new device is the
only practical sheathing lath ever
made, and is bound to soon supercede
the ordinary lath.
The unanimous reelection of j. G.
Gebhart as Chief of the Fire Depart
ment, reflects great credit Ion that
gentleman and proves that the people
are proud to acknowledge the fitting
manner in which he has fulfilled the

shows that they have not forgotten
the brave conduct of Chief Gebhart
at the Honikle holocaust last winter.
