The filing up of the marsh with tan
bark by Messrs. N. r. Allen & Sons is a
big improvement, sanitary and other
wise. Before many years pass away we
expect to see swing bridge take the
place of the present Grand street bridge,
the channel cleaned out. dockage ali
along it, and the best shelter ON the lake
for vessels.
We were misinformed last week in
regard to some statements in the notice
of Mr.. M. Goergen. He had been en-
ployed for years by Mr.. N. Pirsch, and
not by the Balm Wagon Company, and
afterwards was in business for himself.
He was a member of the Hook and
Ladder company, and not the hose COM
panies. The entire fire department at
tended his funeral, not merely the hose
companies.
BY the time this weeks issue is print

pect to remain about ten days, visiting
brothers and other relatives. ANY
business connected with the Office will
be promptly attended to by our en-
ployees, and any one desiring to pay

spring of 1887. He opened shoe store,
but at once began the teaching of vocal
music, and has continued in that voca-
ton ever since. After remaining here
several years he went to Milwaukee,
then to Chicago in 184S, where he has
been engaged in teaching juvenile and
advanced classes in tine rudiments of
music. He has probably devoted more
years in and with greater success in oc-
cupation than any other man in the west.
He taught the first singing class, and
gave the first vocal concert in this part
of Wisconsin. The reputation of Mr..
Dye consists in his remarkable faculty
in teaching the rudiments of music. He.
takes pupils from eight to twelve years
of age, and fits them to read new and
difficult music at first sight. His prof.
cheney in this line has the endorsement
of many distinguished professors of sa.
cred music, among them Prof. Lowell
Mason, of Boston.

BUTIERINE LEGIsI,ATTON

10 THE EDIToR:-In an interesting
article in last weeks TELEGRAPH on but
terine legislation, your correspondent.
J. B. Jackson, seems to misapprehend
my position. He says, we were sur
prised to see dairyman of r. F. Rob
erts' reputation take the stand that it
was unequal and unjust of Congress to
impose a tax ON butterine or on coun-
terfelt butter" want to say right here
that / am in favor of law imposing a
tax on oleomargarine and all compounds
intended to be used for butter. | am in
favor of exacting license of every man
Ufacturer and dealer of imitation butter
and placing its manufacture and sale
under the purveyance of the internal
revenue department of the government.
/ realize as deeply as any dairyman
can, the necessity of protecting the dairy
interests by just legislation from the
competition of counterfeit butter, COM
posed mainly of low priced fats and oils,
such as lard, beat fat and cotton seed
oil.
The question is how best to protect
the honest dairyman and the confiding
consumer. The butter makers are
clamorous for law taxing butterine ten
cents per pound the consumers open
their mouths to eat butterine but keep
them shut on the question of legislation
for protection.
If the legislation had been left to the
butter makers we would have had law
months ago taxing butterine ten cents |
per pound. But our nation at Congress
are obliged TO take into consideration |
the rights and interests of all the people |
and all the industries of the nation. So |
must the supreme courts. Surprising
Congress had imposed a tax of ten cents |
per pound on imitation butter, and the
courts should hold the law void because
it was unequal and unjust, the dairyman
would be without any protection, as
much so as he is now.
A law to prevent the coloring of any
fatty compound to initiate butter, with
efficient provisions for its enforcement,
and providing severe penalties of fines
and imprisonment for violations of the
law, with other proper provisions will
afford the dairy interests all the protec-
ton they can enjoy from legislation.
The law before Congress provides that
oleomargarine land the term is made to
include all fatty compounds to be used
as butter) must be plainly labelled oleo-
by the manufacturer and
dealer. This would seem to be sufficient
of itself to protect the dairyman against
the competition of cheap counterfeit.
The House of Representatives at Wash
ington were compelled to take broader
view of the case than does the average
dairymsn. After discussion of sever
al weeks the tax was reduced in the bill
to five cents per pound. 1t would ap-
pear to the average dairymrn that after
the long discussion in the House, and
all the newspaper writing, and floods
of letters to Senators urging that butter
inc be taxed ten cents per pound, the
Senate of the United States could and
would Immediately give us law. But
in their high and responsible position
they see there are constitutional ques
tons involved and therefore cannot and
will not legislate without proper deliber-
alton and discussion.
Very truly yours,
r. F. ROBERTS.

RACINE ITEMS.

The village of Waterford, in this coun-
ty. is terribly stricken with typhoid fever.
Fifty people are down with the disease.
-Four deaths have occurred thus far.
One family of eleven persons and an.
other of nine are all in their beds. Great
excitement exists in the village. The
disease was brought to the village by a
man from Milwaukee.
Mr.. B. r. Halliday, of Michigan, and
Mrs. Sarah r. Davids, OF Burlington,
Wis, were married in Milwaukee on the
9Th inst, by Rev. L. M. Spencer.
Two tramps entered the farm house of
Michael Halpin, in the town of Gale
donna, Saturday night and stole $50 in
money and three coats. They were over
taken three miles from the house by Hal
pin and his son, when they "showed
light" and succeeded in cleaning out
Halpin and bis son. They hurried away.
and.when Halpin and his son had secured
help and returned to the scene they had
disappeared.
An unknown crazy man, armed with
an ak, was captured by the officers two
miles west of this city, Sunday, while
promiscuously cutting valuable trees.

fought terribly, but was soon overcome
and brought to the jail in this city.
In the Jambor-Palica bomb case, Pail
ca has secured bonds and is at liberty,
but Jambor is still confined in jail It

/ The Stars, an amateur baseball club
from Racine, were easily defeated by q
picked nine from the Reserves and
Blues, in this city, Sunday afternoon
There were but two balls knocked out OIL
the diamond, and those were promptly
lfelded. The feature of the game was
the pitching of the pitcher, which was
very effective. Only one of the Stars
reached second base, and he was forced
out at third. The score was 6 too.

Now that we have handsome band
stand in the park, it would be well to
make use of it. The band boys cannot
be expected to play in the park without
some compensation. They are under
considerable expense for tuition and
keeping up their uniforms, and our
citizens should assist them if they want
their services. The boys are willing to
play in the park one or two nights each
week. They do not specify any sum
for SO doing, but will leave it to the gener-
osity of the people.

The Milwaukee Sentinel of Saturday
says: The examination of Reed, Nc
Intyre and Maloney before Commission
er Bloodgood was concluded yesterday,
and they We're discharged for want of
Jurisdiction. The men we're arrested a
few weeks ago On the charge of piracy
in stealing and despoiling the yacht
Mamie, of Kenosha. They were arrest
ed on the east shore and brought to this
city. Commissioner Bloodgood said
that the law under which the men were
held was passed in 1920 and confined
the crime to "water affected by the
ebb and flow of the sea-" He ordered
the men released, and they were inn
mediately rearrested and turned over to
the sheriff of Kenosha county. They
will be prosecuted for larceny in the
state court. Had they been found
guilty of piracy the penalty would have
been death.

THE WONDERS OF THE SEA.
From the Electrical Repie2D.

The sea occupies three-ffths of the
about $500 feet. waves are not felt.
The temperature is the same, varying
only trife from the ice of the pole to
the burning sun of the equator. A
mile down the water has a pressure of
over ton to the square inch. If
box six feet deep were filled with sea
water and allowed to evaporate under
the sun there would be two inches of
salt left on the bottom. Taking the
average depth of the ocean to be thre
miles, there would be layer Of pure
salt 230 feet thick ON the bed of the
Atlantic. The water is colder at the
bottom than at the surface. In the
many bays on the coast of Norway the
wa er often freezes at the bottom be-
fore it does above. Waves are very
deceptive. To look at them in a storm
one would think the water travelled.
The water stays in the same place, but
the motion goes on. Sometimes in
storms these waves are forty feet high,
and travel fifty miles an hour-more
than twice as fast as the swiftest
steamer. The distance from valley to
valley is generally fifteen times the
height, hence wave five feet high
will extend over seventy-fiVe feet of
water. The force of the sea dashing
on Bell Rock is said to be seventeen
tons for each square yard. Evapora-
tion is wonderful power in drawing
the water from the sea. Every year
layer of the entire sea fourteen feet
is taken up into the clouds. The
winds bear their burden into the land
and the water comes down in rain up
on the fields, to flow back at last
through rivers. The depth of the sea
presents an interesting problem. If
the Atlantic were lowered 1864 feet
the distance from shore to shore would
be half as great, or 1900 miles. Ii
lowered a little more than three miles,
say 1850 feet, there would be road
of dry land from Newfoundland to
Ireland. This is the plan on which
the great Atlantic cables were laid.
The Mediterranean is comparatively
shallow. A drying up of 800 feet
would leave three different seas, and

The British channel is more like a
pond, which accounts for its choppy
waves. 1t has been found difficult to
get correct soundings of the Atlantic.
A midshipman of the navy overcame
the difficulty, and shot weighing
thirty pounds carries down the line.
A hole is bored through the sinker,
through which rod of iron is passed,
moving easily back and forth. In the
end of the bar cup is dug out, and
the inside coated with lard. The bar
is made fast to the line, and sling
holds the shot on. When the bar
which extends below the ball, touches
the earth, the sling unhooks, and the
shot slides off. The lard,in the end of
the bar holds some of the sand, OF
whatever may be on the bottom, and a
drop shuts over the cup to keep the
water from washing the sand out
When the ground is reached a shock
is felt as if an electric current had
/ passed through the line.

WHAT PARENTS FEAR.

Many especially parents
object to many quack nostrums as like
ly to engender or encourage love for
strong drink. They are right. Better
die of disease than of drunkenness. The
use of Parker's Tonic does not involve
this danger. 1t not only builds up the
system, curing all ailments of the stom-
ach, liver and kidneys, but stimulates
without intoxicating and absolutely cures
the appetite for LIQUOR.
