Judge of Probate Hubert Hansen
would like to hear from some 10 guard
ians OF minors, insane persons and ir-
competents in this county. To this end
he has gone oyer the books IN his Office
and ascertained those who have not filed
an inventory and appraisement OF the
estates entrusted to them. or have rem
dered no account of their stewardship.
No less than 40 cases were found in
which this lamentable condition pre-
walls and the probate court in justice to
the wards has notified the guardians
that they must remedy their direlection
and comply with the statutes. The
court has no means of knowing in what
condition the estates are at present, but
this method it is thought will throw
considerable light on their status, The
bondsmen Of these guardians ~may get
into trouble aud the wards may loose if
the bondsmen become worthless or die.
At all events. il is best for both the court
and the heirs to know what the condi-
ton these properties in.-Tournal-Press.

Secretary lRobinson, looking to2the
rehabilitation Of the new navy and find
ing that it was impossible to get appro-
priations for new ships, conceived the
idea of having the Monadnock and other
old vessels rebuilt. The expense at
tached to this came out of the fund for
repairs. The Monadnock was put in
frame at Williamsburg, N. Y, and then
taken apart and the plates shipped to
Mare Island in a sailing vessel
around the Horn. For years
the plates lay exposed to the
weather. The appropriations for
repairs were very small the work
was delayed. Several times the plans
had to be altered to conform with mod
ern requirements, but now it is declared
that the Monadnock is one of the finest
and most efficient warships afloat. She
is double turretted monitor. The old
Monadnock was dismantled here and
heftimbers cut up into relics Of former
glory.

Speech.

Capitol. /

MADISON, WIS, Oct. 2S.Awisconsin's
administration honored Miss Jean
Miner, whose bronze statue represent
ing the motto Of the Badger state,
Forward" which, with the statue de-
signed by Mary Mears of Oshkosh, were
among the features of the Wisconsin
building at the worlds fair, by form
ally unwilling the statue in the capitol
park. The statue occupies q prominent
position ON the east side Of Capitol park,
and Mrs.. John b. Winans, . member Of
the Wisconsin worlds fair committee,
made the presentation speech.
Governor Upham received the statue
on behalf Of the State Of Wisconsin in a
short address. in which he declared that
the statnesserected by both Miss Miner
and Miss Mears were leading works Of
art upon the worlds fair grounds.
History Of the Statue.
Miss Miner is daughter Of the Rev.
and Mrs. H. A. Miner of Madison The
construction of the figure grew out Of
an offer from an organization Of Wis
consin women of prizes for the best
pieces of sculpture by Wisconsin artists,
to be exhibited at the worlds fair.
Two were accepted, the one in the
capitol park, by Miss Miner, and a
larger one, by Miss Florence Mears
of Oshkosh. The idea Of preserving
these statues and erecting them in the
capitol park was inspired by the Wis
consin ladies' commission to the world S
fair. Near the close of the fair a meet
ing was held and committee of lead
ing women Of Wisconsin was appointed
to carry out the work. It cost about
$4,000 to have the statue cast in bronze,
and all Of this sum was subscribed by
the women Of the state. Last winter q
resolution was passed by the legislature
giving the women permission to erect
the statue in Capitol park.
Miss Mears' statue will probably oc-
cupy position of honor inside the cap
stol building. although this has not yet
been decided upon, but it's location will
be fixed some time this week and that
statue viii probably be unveiled early
next spring.

Sheldon has signed all the bills passed
by the legislature except three, which
he vetoed. These were the senate bill
providing that a Judge may suspend
the sentence of an incorrigible youth
when committed to the reform school
and send him to the society to find
homes for the friendless. The reason
this was vetoed is that the bill repeats
the wrong act. The senate bin divid-
ing school districts was vetoed because
Of an error in drafting it. The rail-
road committee bill compelling inter-
locking systems to use switch towers
was vetoed because it woul entail un-
necessary expense upon the companies.
