C. B. Johnson of Castle Rock tells
the Penn I more Times: “I have la my
possession what I consider an inter-
esting reltc. It Is the stove that was
need In thp first capitol building in
Wisconsin in territorial times *t Bel-
cell. Although the man refused to
give any explanation, the officers com-
plied with, his request. A few hours
later a native, who was badly bruised
and cut, came shrieking Into the sta-
tion and announced that he had Just
been assaulted and robbed. When
asked who his assailant was, he nam-
ed the native who had been locked up
at hts own request. investigation
showed that the Second native had In-
flicted wounds upoir himself for 'the
purpose of getting an enemy into jail.
The man he was plotting- against
heard of the plan and defeated It by
being in jail at the .' time the crime
was said to have been committed.”

first judge of Wisconsin, left ft to hU
son, John, who used to farm at Castle
Korir, and he sold It to the school in
5as Hollow. When a new schoolhouse
was built several years ago the old
stove had to make way for. a more
modern and new one and I bought the
old one. It is of a. peculiar and very
odd shape and I doubt if another one
like It can be found in all this country.
It Is about 2x3 feet In size and consists
of six pieces with an iron band around
them. You can remove the band and
it all comes apart. It is made of cast
iron about half an Inch thick. All tha
marks on it are the letter ‘St. M.’
Yes; it Is a good heater In spiteyrt Its
age. If the old capitol Is ever moved
to Madison the old stove certainly
ought to go with It.”
