the family were well enough to be around.

that brought them out of danger all right.
Some of them are yet in a critical condi-

accident occurred last night, a bus con-
tanning eighteen young men being struck
by a Milwaukee Il Northern passenger
train as it was pulling into the yard OF

OPPOSE A REORGANIZATION.
Wisconsin Military Men Do Not Favo
Changes i'll the Militia.

Changes III the Militia.
Madison, Wis. Dec. 2S.-The move
for the reorganization of the state militia
into IA brigade and the consequent reduc-
ton of the number of companies from
forty to thirty-siX is not favorably re-
ceived by miltiamen in this section of
the state; in fact Il determined opposi-
ton is already being manifested which
promises to take definite and organized
shape by the time the proposed bill for
such reorganization comes before the
Legislature. The opposition will not or
are likely to be dropped, but will come
primarily from officers and members of
the company which has for four consecu-
tive years stood at the head in inspection
and drill-Co. l of this city.
The State journal today prints several
interviews with officers and privates for
this opposition. Summed up, they are:
"That there is no necessity or good rea-
son for the change; that it would be an
injustice to the companies which would
be dropped. as some of them, while their
inspection standing is low, nevertheless
take an active interest in military mat
ters and not only they but their towns
people would be exceedingly sore if they
were dropped; that it would be especially
hard on the First regiment, which would
probably lose two of it's companies
Another reason for the opposition,
which Private r.. ). ROWley does not hes
itate to voice. is feeling that dominant
purpose of the move for reorganiza ton
is to create a place for Gen. Otto Falk,
who it is generally understood is to be
brigade commander if the plan succeeds,
and for other Milwaukee men, virtually
placing control of the state militia in the
hands of Cream city mihtiamen and leav
ing outsiders Il small show for promo
tions; for the plan of the reorganizers is
also said to include Col. ii. Nj. Seaman
of milwaukee, as surgeon general: j. w.
Brown of milwaukee, as surgeon of the
First regiment; Ii. e. Bradley of Milwau-
kee as adjutant under Col. Seaman, and
A. B. Gambler for another position. Mil

tant-general. Maj. O. B. Zweitusch as

MYSTERI0USLY SHOT.
Case at Lexington, KY, Where No
Reason for Suicide Nor Motive
for Murder is Known.

Lexington, Ky, Dec. 26.-Dudley c..
Logan, a member of the hardware firm
of Logan & Higgins, and a prominent
was mysteriously shot in
the yard in the rear of his residence be-
tween 6 and o'clock this morning. His
family heard shots and found him with
a bullet wound in the back Of his head.
The mystery arises from the fact that his
pistol was found by his side with four
chambers empty, but it seems impossible
for the wound to have been self-intiicted.
No cause is known for suicide and no
motive for murder. The wound is sup
posed to be fatal. Mr.. Logan was prom
ment in political, ex-Confederate and
church circles.

Foremost among the best known lawyers

breaking down of the nervous system, at
tended by excruciating, agonizing, unendur-
able pain. Opiates and stimulants only
quoted temporarily, and all treatments
failed him. Only his love of family and

porter the following interesting story:
II kept at my work as long as l could,
but nature gave way at last and | Succumbed
10 the inevitable. My entire nervous SyS-
TEN had been shattered by the stimulants
and opiates had taken, my blood had actu-
ally turned to water, my weight had drop
ped from 173 pounds to 1913, and it seemed to
everybody that the end was in sight. Why

twas at this time that somewhat SINH
lar case as my own was brought to my
notice. This man had suffered very much
as | had, his life had been despaired of as
mine had, and yet he had been cured.
Think what that little word meant to me-
CURED. The report stated that the work
had been accomplished by a medicine
known as DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. | investigated the report thorough
ly and found that it was true in detail. Then
l procured some of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills and began taking them and began
to get better. | began to sleep like health
full child, sound, calm, and peaceful. My
appetite came back, and my nerves were
sOothed and restored to their normal condi-
ton and | felt like new man. But the
greatest blessing was the mental improve
ment. | began to read and digest, to formu-
late new plans, to take interest in my law
practice, which began to come back to me
as soon as my clients realized that | was
again myself. After lapse of ten years l

out last night by removing the bricks I'M
der the window on the north side of the
Jail. They were heard by short term
prisoner upstairs, who notified the sheriff,
and the fellows were caught just as they
forced two bricks out of the outer wall.
The work was done with knives and
forks stolen when meals were served
When captured all the tools were worn
out except half an iron spoon. With
better tools they would probably have
succeeded, though only four tramps in
the corridor could have escaped, the rest
being locked in cells.
