THIRD HYDRANT BROKE;
DEPARTMENT HEAD MAD

Twice before this year city water
hydrants have been broken in
contact with skidding vehicles, and
on both occasions the offenders have
escaped the penalty of paying the
costs.
Therefore on Tuesday, when Joe
Rolling reported to Mr.. Buck that
another hydrant, the one at the
corner of Main street and Cascade
avenue, had been struck, Ernie went
right up in the air and described in
minute detail just what he and his
crew would do to the blankety blank
bum who did the dastardly deed.
"Say,' whispered Joe, "if you
never tell him l told you I'll tell you
who did it"
What cried Ernie; "you know
who did it? Just say who! We
won't tell who told us, but we'll tell
him aplenty, you can bet your bot
tom dollar on that. Who did it,"
"Well," said Joe, "his name is Joe
Rolling"
And while Ernie was reacting to
the "sell," Joe explained how his
team ran away and dashed the wag-
on-pole squarely into the hydrant.
The team and wagon escaped injury,
but the hydrant, while not busted, is
badly bent.

High School Champs
Trim New Richmond
Win Clear Title 10 Top Honurs In
This District-Will Close Season
At La Crosse Thanksgiving Day

River Rails high school won clear
title to championship honors in this
district Saturday by winning from
New Richmond IL to 0 on the West
Side campus.
The Orange & White has won all
Of it's eight games this season, and
has included among it's victims six
Wisconsin high ools-Ellsworti,
Hudson, Menomonie, Eau Claire,
Roberts and New Richmond-to
make its district title secure. Vic
tories over the Red Wing Training
school and st. Paul Central high are
added to give River Falls fame in
our neighboring Gopher state.
With La Crosse high scouts on thu
sidelines here Saturday the Falls
did not open up any more than was
necessary, and this probably account
ed for the low score, although the
Cyclone City boys put up a game
fight and made the locals some tough
opposition.
Captain Carisch made both of the
local touchdowns, scoring in the
second and fourth quarters.

The unusually vicious campaign Of

just before election, staged by the

to prevent a really fearless dry man
