serious accident yesterday morning
shortly after II O'Clock. She had been
filling the tank of gasoline stove, and
the supposition is that some of the oil
got onto her clothes, for as soon as she
lit match to apply to the burner on the
stove, the flame became ignited to her
dress, and in an instant it was ablaze. In
this condition she rushed from the house
and into an adjoining yard, where, with
the assistance of neighbors, the flames
were subdued. Examination by DR..
Paul found at least half of the trunk ter
ribly burned, pulled and almost an entire
blister The woman, while suffering
great agony. recovered from the shock
nicely, but it is difficult as yet to ascer>

and it is impossible as yet to determine

At the Republican State Conven-
vention held in Milwaukee on We'd
nesday, the following ticket was nom
mated almost without a struggle:
Governor, w. d. Hoard; lieuten-
ant governor, Geo. B. Rylands; sec
rotary of state. Ernest e. Timme;
state treasurer, Robert B. Harshaw;
attorney general, Charles H. Este
brook; superintendent of public in
struction, Jesse B. Thayer; railroad
Inspector, Alley Peterson; insurance
commissioner, Philip Cheek Jr.
The ticket Is one of the very best
that could have been selected. Per
sonally the TINES favored McFetridge
for governor, but it can and will as
earnestly support Mr.. Hoard as ii
would have done had its own first
choice been chosen. The ticket will
be elected by the largest majority
ever given the Republican party in
this state.

Wisconsin w. 5. A, is hereby called
to meet at Stevens Point, on the %,
26 and q of September, to elect Of
ficers, discuss plans of work for the

among us of representatives of our
cause from the Old World, the hear
ing before Congress and the work in
different states all show that the work
is attracting more general attention
than ever before.
Therefore the women of Wisconsin
should rally for Il more vigorous, de-
termined and persistent effort than
they have yet made to secure the right
of suffrage for the women of our state.

editor of the Louisville Courler-Jour-

ern iron men said:
Southern furnacemen.s should bear in
mind that a high duty on imports will

NOW FOR VICTORY.

What could be more glorious in the
way of beginning for a republican
campaign in presidential year. The
party is united as never before. There
are and there can be no factional
fights. Republicans, this year are
not waiting until month or two be-
fore the election to begin work. They
commenced the Harrison and Morton
campaign as soon as the convention
named those two grand men for these
high offices, and their zeal, hopeful
ness. enthusiasm and determination
have steadily increased, and there will
be no reduction, but an increase in
all of these. The republicans are
bound to wrest the management Of
governmental affairs from the grasp of
party that makes free trade its rally
ing cry, thus showing that it cares
more for foreign countries than it
does for America; party that is in
power because Of Violated constitut-
ion in several southern states. That
party is sure to meet defeat In the
coming election. The republicans of
New York and Indiana are confident
of success in their states. The meet
ing of the national committee in New
York was notable for the eminent
men it brought together, and for
their uniform expressions of conf
dence. Every man was general
who looked and acted as though he
commanded corps of an army that
was marching forward to certain vic
tory. And that is what it is. Sen
ator Quay, the new chairman is add
mirably equipped for the work before
him, and his army of millions of hope
full, Jealous, brave, earnest soldiers are
at work. Every republican should
work from now until election, SO that
democracy's defeat may be SO crush
ing that it cannot gain its feet for
quarter of a century, If ever.-Mil-
waukee Sunday Telegraph.
