Last Wednesday the pretty little fawn, which bas been so great an attraction at Silurian spring for many months was attack ed by a vicious bull dog, aud before any assistance could be rendered, the timid, helpless creature was so badly hurt that it was mercifully put out of its misery.

One fore leg was broken near the shoulder so that the bone protruded through the flesb, and it was maimed and torn all over its body. The dog accompanied some boys, but it is hardly the possible they would have maliciously set dog on the fawn. The animal was brought here last spring when it was but a few weeks old and has been brought up as tenderly as a child. It was very tame and would eat out of the hands of the throngs of people who last summer visited the spring. It appeared to have the utmost confidence in its human friends and was the pet of everybody.

The death of the little creature in this cruel way will be a matter of general regret. The dog that did the damage is the property of Frank Martin, engineer on the Wisconsin Central.

B. of L. F. Tne largest and finest party of the season occurred Wednesday, Thanksgiving at Amusem*nt hall, given by the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen of the Wisconsin Central road. Nearly 1,000 invitations were issued, and to judge by the immense number of peop'e in the hall, it would appear that almost every man had accepted.

The boys never do anything by halves, and this party was up to the high standard already established by the locomotive firemen fraternity. Waukesha was represented by a goodly number of the most prominent business men. The hall was handsomely decorated, and was flooded with illumination from locomotive headlights. The decorations were of the stars and stripes and bright colored bunting, and were displayed in excellent taste. Designs emblematic of the sentiment and aims of the brotherhood were placed in conspicuous positions, and suggested that devotion to each other and that strict loyalty to duty which is sO marked a characteri-tic of railroad men.

Members of the brotherhood were present from Milwaukee, Stevens Point, St. Paul, aud all along the line. The projectors of the party are a -fine set of boys, and are suitable representatives of the: Wisconsin Central road, which enjoys a deserved popularity. Nothing was too good, and they spared neither for the time, labor entertainment nor expense of their in preparing friends. Supper was at the Coleman house, and all the substantials and dainties of this hospitable season were on tap.

County Board Hard at Work Over Multitudinous Bills -This Year's Bills as Compared With Last Year's -An Adjournment Will be Taken To day, The bills of peace officers in. the county seem to be as large if not larger than they were last year, notwithstanding the honest effort of the county board to adopt means to curtail them. Perhaps there was more business in general this year than last. Certain it is, there 'have not been as many tramps or vagrants, while the number of drunks has increased from less than one hundred to over two hundred. The board has already made a cut of.

$600 in the bill of the sheriff, but it is still deliberating on the bills of some of the constables and justices. The following table shows the sheriff's and justices' bi bills of this year as compared with 1889 1890 last year: W. S. Parsons, Sheriff. $7,558 85 $8,280 90 22 D.

Spencer, 26 78 414 174 47 71 Ira Kimball, 581 $11,968 00 $11,307 62 Some of the marshals' and constables' fees are comparatively moderate considering the amount of work accomplished, while others upon the face of them seem exorbitant in the extreme. the aggregate they do not materially differ from those of last year.

It appears now that the only effective remedy to regulate. the tramp evil in Waukesha county is to create a criminal court at Waukesha with a salaried judge, having exclusive power to issue criminal warrants of all kinds. The county board has not wasted a moment since they convened I and the several committees are entitled to much credit for their endeavors in correctly auditing bills with justice to all and malice toward none. Their arduous were happily relieved last week by their annual visit to the county poor farm. They found everything in applepie order, and a feeling of contentment prevailing among the inmates.

Mr. Fardy was unanimously re-elected to the position of superintendant of the poor farm, and the sum of $100 was appropriated to Mrs. Fardy, both of which acts were merited and receive the highest approbation of all tax payers. The official bond of Lawrence Debus, treasurerelect, in sum of $125,000, was filed on Monday, the surety being A. J.

On this occasion Peter Schwartz was the victim, asl he has been on previous occasions. About two weeks ago a large bay stack was fired, but it was discovered in time to avert any serious loss.

Monday evening fire was discovered in the same place, and while efforts were being made to extinguish the flames, the barn, forty rods distant, was seen blazing. By dint of great exertion, thirty head of valuable stock were saved, but the flames licked up 2,000 bushels of grain, bay, and 8 complete outfit of farming implements. All told the loss foots up to $7,000, upon which insurance bad just expired. For a period of several years New Berlin has been the arena in which similar infamous and dastardly crimes have been committed. Messre.

Schwartz, Phillips, Schlenvogt and others have suffered heavy losses and it is time the prepetrator or prepetrators of the outrage should be brought to justice and punishment. Mr. Schwartz offers $500 for the detection of the culprit, and Mr. Phillips covers it with a similar sum. If be should be discovered now while public feeling is 80 intense he would find but a short measure of mercy at the hands of those whom he has wronged.

Tuesday night, occurred near Stockton to the passenger train on tie Wisconsin Central railroad which runs between Milwaukee and St.

Paul, by which the engine and tender 'were derailed and the engineer, Frank Martin, better known as Black Pete, and the fireman, Oscar Puts, were injured. Both are well known in Waukesha. The accident. resulted from 8 misplaced switch which is believed to have been maliciously tampered with. Mr.

Martin had seyeral bad cuts about the head, and Oscar Puts is scalded on one side. While he was being 'taken to Stevens Point he suffered agony and it was doubtful if he would recover. An eye witness says that the complete destruction of the train was averted by 8 chance which appears almost miraculous. A short time before reaching the misplaced switch, two of the cars were found to be uncoupled, and were held together only by the stay chains. This was discovered about balf a mile before reaching the scene of the accident and the train was stopped so that when the train passed through the switch it was running at a comparatively slow rate, while its usual rate is between fifty and sixty miles an hour--it is the fastest train on the road.

Had it been running as usual no one would have been left to tell the tale of the disaster. Mr, Martin was brought to his home in Waukesha Wednesday afternoon.

The bald beads occupied the front row of seats in of Justice Hemlock on Monday afternoon, when the preliminary hearing of Ainsworth was called.

The testimony was of a highly sensational and racy character. According to the testimony of Mrs. Suydam, there was no extravagant "enticing" on the part of Ainsworth. Mr. Suydam was present, but did not appear inconsolable over the defection of his wife.

Instead of being the highsouled moralist anxious to defend the honor of his family, Wm. Van Zandt, Mrs. Suydam' brother, was proven to be a cold-blooded schemer, who for. prospective gain to be wrung out of Ainsworth, was willing to publish to the. world the frailty of his sister, and it was also proven that he was fairly intimate with the interior decorations of Waupun state prison.

Ainsworth was shown up in an entirely dffierent character from what was generally believed. Instead of going about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he might devour, he is rather the unsuspicious lamb in the hands of ravening wolves. It is clearly the modern version of the classic story, in which Jason in the good ship Argo set sail for Colchis in search of the Golden Fleece. In the present CAS3 Van Zandt represents Jason.
