SPANISH-AMERICAN WAR.


For the war with Spain in 1898. four regiments of National Guard were taken from Wisconsin for service in the field. The company at Whitewater, then and now Company C, First Infantry, was filled by recruiting. assembled at Camp Harvey and ordered southward. Its officers were Capt. Leverette H. Persons, First Lieut. William H. Hahn, Second Lieut. Edward T. Weyher. and of its enlisted men, sixty-two were of this county. Besides these. nine men enlisted in other companies of the same regiment, and sixteen served in Company A. Fourth Infantry. None of these men reached Cuba, but four died in service, namely: Bloxham. September 8, 1898: Miller, August 3; Southwick. September 4: Whaley. September 6, the first three at Jackson- ville, the last-named at Second Division Hospital. The enlisted men were :

Of these men, Trolle enlisted from Darien; Lyon, Odell, Protheroe, Shimmins, Smith, Southwick, Wolf, Wrigglesworth, from Delavan; Conck- lin, DeProux, Eddy, Gillard, Kelly, MeDonough, Riordan, Tearney, Thorn- ton. Tuke, Willett, from East Troy ; Fowlston, Huntress, Lannon, from Elk- horn: Cooley, Whaley, from Heart Prairie; Brunet from Lake Geneva; In- galls, from Linn: Ames, from Springfield; Derthick, from Spring Prairie; Burns, Dingman, Montague, from Troy Center. Sergeant Tearney had served in Company F. Fifteenth United States Infantry, and Troop D. Seventh United States Cavalry, five years in all. He was mustered out as a quartermaster sergeant. All the other men were credited to Whitewater, forty-nine, including officers.


One more service humbly but honorably useful, in behalf of law and or- der, was performed by young men of Delavan and Whitewater in 1886, when rioting at Milwaukee called thither Governor Rusk and several companies of the National Guard. Our boys were not assigned to Major Traeumer's firing line at Bayview, but threats to property in other parts of the city compelled some days of guard duty, and the promptly-arriving Walworthians served faithfully wherever they were placed.


CHAPTER XIII.


NOTEWORTHY INSTITUTIONS.


Three noteworthy institutions of wider than local interest are in the county, but neither founded nor sustained by the county or its citizens, namely : The Yerkes observatory, the State School for the Deaf and a State Normal School. The first is one of about two hundred and thirty observatories named, with their latitudes and longitudes, in each year's American Ephemeris and Nautical Almanac, and situated in nearly all the countries of the habitable or endurable earth. The second ranks among the highest in the states. The third is the second in order of establishment of eight such schools in the state.


YERKES OBSERVATORY.


A far-western institution of learning had ordered from Mantois, of Paris, two 42-inch glass disks to be combined and finished as an object glass by Alvan Clark & Sons, Cambridgeport. Mass., but found itself unable to go further in constructing and mounting a telescope. George E. Hale, of Kenwood Observatory (privately equipped), and the late President Harper, of the University of Chicago, thus found opportunity to buy these faultless disks and with them to build and mount the most powerful refracting telescope in the world. The means were soon supplied through the liberality of the late Charles T. Yerkes, and in 1892 contracts were made with the Clarks for finish- ing the lenses and with a Cleveland firm for the mounting of this "Dread- naught" of immeasurable space. The planning and general direction of the work. as to buildings and instruments, was committed to Mr. Hale. From more than twenty places were offers of land for the purpose in hand. It was found requisite that the site chosen should be within one hundred miles of Chicago and readily accessible from city and university : that it should be sufficiently re- mote from the dust, smoke, glare of street lights, and jar of cities, and not too near the pathis of earth-shaking freight trains. Too close neighborhood of many dwellings was also to be avoided. These conditions seemed best ful- filled by that part of section 1, town of Walworth, which looks southwardly across the western end of Geneva Lake. A tract of fifty-three acres was given by John Johnston, Jr., lying in the southwest quarter of the section.
