The native tendency of women to gad
about is variously reppessed in different
ages and countries. In China their feet
are early put in bandages, COMPRISING
them to point where locomotion is at
tended with extreme difficulty. In other
eastern countries they are shut up in hG-
rems and guarded by large and limitary
eunuchs. In Africa they are fed to point
of pinguidity which makes them practi-
oally immovable. Tho North American
Indian handicaps his wife with all the i'm
redimenta Of the family, including her pa
poose. Everywhere restraint is laid on her
against her naturally fugitive and mobile
tendencies. In all these expedients there
is certain measure of oppression and
cruelty but none of them equals in this re-
spect the device of St. Louis husband
who tied o mouse on the box containing
his wife's new bonnet and thus kept her q
prisoner at home for ten days. She was
ultimately restored to her freedom by the
captain Of the precinct, who brought
around the station house catand q warrant
for tho arrest Of the cruel husband. His
diabolical ingenuity is not unlikely to in
cite imitation here and there among the
more unfeeling plan of spouses incapable
Of recognizing the fact that to the female
apprehension the domestic mouse is an OBJ

completed on the 18th Of March, 1862 Tho
word mausoleum was derived from Mau-
solus, king of Caria, s37 B. C. He mar
ried Artemisia, who was so passionately
attached to him that when he died she
drank his ashes dissolved in liquid after
his body had been burned. She erected a
monument to his memory which was called

The King In Church.

When George Ill came to the throne, one
of his first acts was TO issue an order pro-
hibiting any of the clergy who should
preach before him from paying him COM
pIiments in their sermons. This was es-
pecially aimed at prebendary of Westnin-
ster who had in his discourse before him
INDUCED in fulsome adulation. Instead OF
thanks, the king gave him the informa'
tion that he came to church to hear the
praises of God, and not his own.

Five years ago last winter, there was con-

the ice, and was for some moments lost to

Halleck came In sight again, and by artistic
means was fished from the fluid and restored

would have been well, but unfortunately,

preceding biennial term. This may be
readily accounted for by the fact that
there were decreased expenditures in
matters other than clerk hire
During the past year the Orange
Judd Company made compilation
from the official reports of the several
states of the union, showing an increase
in state extravaganza, making CON-
parison between the years 1860 and
1895. This table was compiled with
the assistance of the governors, treas
urers and auditors of the various states,
and shows the expenditures in 1860,
the assessed valuation, the population,
the expense per capita. and the expense
per one thousand dollars of taxable
property, and also the same for the
year 1895.
From the very interesting table COM
piled it concludes that Wisconsin is the
only state in the list which has not
shown an increase. The report closes
with the following language:
/" We thus find that the expense per
capita OF state administrations costs
today several times more than it did in
1860. In Maine the increase per capita
is 175 per cent, in Vermont ZIG per
cent, in Massachusetts 215 per cent,
III Connecticut 528 per cent, in New
Jersey 800 per cent, in Michigan SO
per cent, and in Iowa Il per cent,
while in Minnesota the expenses per
capita of population are now 334 per
cent greater Wisconsin has the proud
distinction Of showing a light decrease
per capita, in expenses, and in Illinois
tie increase is only Is per cent"
From the table given the expenses
per capita in Wisconsin IN 1860 were
oil, and in 1895 2.13. In 1860 the
expenses per one thousand dollars of
aSsessable property was 9.20, and in
1895 sos, being the only state in the
entire list showing a decrease.
Yours very truly,

Since the affair of the 18th every

pair of tan shoes has been looked on
with suspicion.
The U. S. Express office in this city
has had a greater increase in business

such Office in the state.
Two bus loads went up to Racine to
witness the ball game Friday evening
and Joseph Pitts got up another load
that went to attend the dancing
school.

were turned over to man here in town
who in turn sold them to farmer for
so cents. The officer says he will see
that they are returned.
The smoothness of the program at
the opera house Friday evening was
sadly broken by couple of young fell
lows who occupied box. They were
evidently under the influence of liquor
and used slang very audibly and pro-
fusely in the most pathetic parts of the
play until Chief Stemm notified them
that there was lots of room for them
outside.
The sleigh ride as we'll as the indoor
base ball game at Racine Friday even
ing were pronounced a great success.
The game was very exciting, the score
being very close all through. At the
end of the ninth inning the game was
tied, standing 9 to 9, but in the tenth
the Kenosha's came out one ahead with
a score of IL to 10.
Since there is bill before the legis-
lature for the removal of the capitol
from Madison at the expense of the
state why wouldn't it be good idea to
have it brought to Kenosha. KenOsha
is a beautiful Iittl6 city and while it is
not just able TO stand the expense of
such an affair, under the present cir
cumstances it would not make any OBJ
lection to making room for the capitol
buildings and eventually the state
university.

FOR THE OLD SOLDIERS.
The Text of the Bill to Put Statue of

The Text of the Bill to Put Statue of
Gen. Fairchild in Washington.
The following copy of bill No. 159, a,
has been forwarded us from the G.. A.
R. headquarters with request to pub
lish for the benefit of the old soldiers.
We do so gladly.
The following is one of the bills in
troduced into the assembly at Madison
for placing statues in the old hall of
representatives at Washington:
A bill authorizing and directing the
governor to have placed in the old hall
of the house of representatives at
Washington, statue of General Lucius
Fairchitd.
The people of the state of Wisconsin,
represented in senate and assembly,
do enact as follows:
Section 1. By section numbered
1914 of the revised statutes of the
United States, each of the states is in
vited to present to congress, to be
placed in the old hall of the house of
representatives in the capitol of the
United States at Washington, marble
or bronze statues, not exceeding two of
it's deceased residents, who have been
iIlustrious Tor their historic renown, or
for their distinguished civic or military
services, such as the state shall deter
mine to be worthy of this national
commemoration; and it is hereby en-
acted that General Lucius Fairchild be
and is hereby designated by the state
of Wisconsin as one of such persons.
Section 2. The governor is hereby
authorized and directed to have placed
in the hall of said house of representa-
tives a statue of General Lucius Fair
child, distinguished for his services in
the war for the union, and for his civic
services to the state Of Wisconsin,, of
which he was citizen for more than
half a century.
Section 3. There is hereby apprO-
priated out of the state treasury sum
sufficient to carry out the purposes of
this act.
Section 4. This act shall take effect

sage and publication.
The other is of the same text as the
above with the exception that it is for
the placing of a statue of Gen. Jere M
Rusk instead of Gen. Fairchild.
Of the bills, the news from Madison
has the following to say:
Madison, Wis, Feb. 10-Next Tues
day afternoon the assembly committee
on federal relations will take up the
memorial to congress asking for the
return of the statue Of Pere Marquette,
so as to substitute statues of jeremiah
Nj. Rusk and Lucius Fairchild. The
move for the recall is Grand army one
to great extent, as the boys wish to
have the two generals placed in Me-
mortal hall at Washington, and say
that it would be highly appropriate to
have the statue of Marquette placed in
the new Historical building at Madison.

WE CAUGHT EN- AGAIN.
The Kenoshas Do Up the Racines Again
at Base Ball.

The indoor base ball game at Racine
Friday night between KenOsha Athlet-
les and Racne's crack team was one Of
the hardest fought battles that has been
seen for many day, Kenosha boys
winning an uphill game by steady
playing at critical points and batting
out the winning run in the tenth.
Kenosha BANKED Racine in their
halfof the first inning, but by good bat
ing and Giles wild pitch scored three
times. They scored again in the Sec
ond, but failed to in the next two in
nings. Racine scored two in the sec
ond, three in the third, one in the fifth,
and three in the sixth, making the score
s to when our boys went in for their
turn at the bat. They managed to
knock out two ru2s and tied the score
in the sixth. Racine forged ahead in
the ninth by scoring twice, but our boys
again came to the front and tied them.
Racine went out in one, two, three
order in their half of the tenth, but
Kenosha made the winning run with
only one man out.
The game was exciting throughout
and kept the spectators on the edge Of
their seats from start to finish.
0lle's pitching at times was very fast
but he lost control of the ball at critical
moments.
The Racine team field finely and play
d great game.
The Kenosha boys played sharp
game, and won out by good batting
and base running.

Inducements of Spanish troops have
been moved to the front from Havana
and Pinar del Rio provinces. Genera
Weyler intended to establish his head
quarters in Matanza city and then in
Guines, Havana province, in case the
Cubans should succeed in pushing
their way through Matanzas into Ha.
vana.
A rumOr reached this city last night
that railroad traffic has been stopped
on almost all the lines running
through Matnazas province.
The excitement was added to by a
later report that General Weyler has
ordered the Marquis de Ahumada, the
acting encouragement, to send as
large force Of troops as could be
spared to the vicinity of Guines, near
the border of Havana and Matanzas
provinces. Additional artillery was
shipped last night to Guines.
The situation of General Weyler is
similar to that of General Martinez
Campos when he tried in December,
1895, to check the famous raid of
Gomez and Maceo and was compelled
to fall back successfully at Jovanellos
and Closeo and Colon before the
Cubans.
Those in position to know hint
the chief source of alarm in the pal
ace is the recent dispatch from Mat.
anzas. The names of Weyler AMI
several other Spanish generals as well
as those of Gomez and GARLIC are often
repeated in the course of thes message.
The alleged information in the dis
patch, coupled with the demand for
achievements at Guines and the
shipment there of heavy artillery,
leads many to believe that the Span
sh troops will make further stand
1t Guines.
