LA TOILETTE ON STRIKE.
Governor Discusses 1t in Speech at
WatertoWn.


Watertown, Wis, Oct, 15,-Gov. La
Toilette yesterday morning spoke to
about 500 people at the opera house.
His speech was marked by a very pro-
nounced statement on national issues,
the governor having made the decla-
ration that he believed the federal
constitution should be amended so that
the federal government could enter
states for the control of trusts and
take whatever measures might be
needed to prevent their extortiOns.
The governor declared that in a
speech several years ago he had pre-
dicted that troubles would occur in
the coal fields similar to those which
now exist in the anthracite coal re-
gion.
During the course of his remarks
the governor paid an eloquent tribute
to the memory OF the late Lieut.. Gov.
Jesse stone and said he had learned
to value his friendship highly.
Gov. La Toilette was met at the sta
ton by a brass band which escorted
him to the hall. The governor was in
troduced by Col Gustav Bucheit, the
republican candidate for district at
torney Of Jefferson county. During
their visit to Watertown Gov. and
Mrs. La Toilette were the guests of
DR.. and Mrs w. F. White.

Madison. Oct. Is.

Madison, OcC. 10.
The state board of control met at
it's office in the capitol yesterday and
discussed the matter of letting the
contract for the labor of the state
prison at Waupun. No action was
taken but it was determined to settle
the business at the regular monthly
meeting the last Monday of the month.
Some routine business was trans
acted.
The discussion yesterday was large
ly the hearing of the reports of the
members who have just returned from
a trip of investigation in the east,
visiting public prisons there and in
vestigating systems in the hope of
finding means of following Gov La
Follette's recommendation to diversity
the industry of the state prisoners
and give them a number of things to
do or a choice of number Of indus
tries.
The members feel sure they will
effect an improvement along the lines
indicated by the governor.
There is no contemplation of rails
ing the pay for the laborers other
than the intention to get the most
possible money for the state.

interurban system in the last few
years.
Mr.. Abbott left New York by sur
face car for Yonkers, where he took
the Yonkers & Hastings line to Hast
ings. The New York Central landed
him at Hudson, where he took an AL
bany & Hudson traction car for AL
bany From Albany he went to
Schenectady by trolley, a distance of
fifteen miles. The Auburn Suburban
took him to Auburn.
Then by way of Lockport, Buffalo,
St. GATHERINGS, gainesville, o. and
Cleveland, he reached Toledo. Had he
been a week later he could have gone
clear through to Detroit, but that line
is not quite finished and he was
obliged to resort to steam to get to
the Michigan metropolis.
From Detroit he will go to Jackson,
eighty miles, by the Detroit, Ypsilanti,
Ann Arbor & Jackson. From there he
will go to Muskegon by the Grand
Rapids, Grand Haven & Muskegon,
completely crossing Michigan by
trolley. From Muskegon he will cross
the lake to Milwaukee.
The longest stretch Of continuous
electric road travelling is from Paines-
vile to Monroe, Mich. The line is now
being extended from gainesville east
to Ashtabula, and in very short time
the road will be open from Monroe to
Detroit, making a continuous line from
Detroit to Ashtabula, the longest
stretch of electric railroad in the
world
At present, through electric trains,
the only ones in the country, are run
ming between Cleveland and Toledo.
They carry on an average eighty pas
sengers a day. The trip is about two
hours longer than by the Lake Shore
road, owing to frequent stops, but the
Lake Shore electric cars have on. sew
eral occasions beaten the Lake Shore
steam flyer on a stretch where the
tracks run parallel, attaining and
maintaining a speed of more than
sixty miles an hour.

DISCOURAGlNG COMMITTEE
RECEIVING BOER GENERALS

Berlin, Oct. 15.-Gen. Botha has tel
egraphed the reception committee that
the boer generals will arrive here to-
morrow, but as their presence is nee
essary in England they must leave
Berlin Saturday. The government is
discouraging the boer reception COM
mittee in various ways. The police
will not permit the proposed process
sion to pass through Brandenburger
gate, doubtless because it is near the
British embassy. BillpOsters who
have a monopoly on the city's adver-
Using on the pillars have broken
their contract and refuse to put up
any more placards Of advertising re-
ception of the beers. 1t is intimated
that the reason is they received a Sc
cret hint from the police to cease ad-
vertising the entertainment. The gov
eminent seems determined to prevent
the slightest demonstration that might
be construed as offensive to Great
Britain

WARDENS HOLD
HUNTING OUTFIT
BIG PILE OF LUGGAGE STOPPED
BY OFFICERS OF LAW.
FIND RAcCOON IN A TRUN
Guns, Game, Fishing Tackle, Ammuni-
ton and Camp ParaphernaIia Fall
into Clutches of Deupties-Owners
Came from Freeport and None
Were Provided With License.
Madison, Oct. Is.

Madison, Oct. Is.
Deputy Game Warden Alex John
stone of Chippewa county was coming
to Madison Monday night and when
he arrived he stopped a large hunting
colony outfit that was being shipped
from Rice Lake to Freeport, ILL.,, by a
party of hunters that have been giving
the wardens much annoyance in Chip
pewa county. At one time they we're
located at Cedar Lake Inn, and re-
ceived their mail at Barron postof1ce.
Their baggage consisted of five
trunks, three boxes and a grip. Not
all the baggage was seized, but only
that portion that was either packed
with the game or was claerly used in
the violation of the laws Of the state.
The wardens are in possession of posi-
tive evidence that not one Of the par
ty of five or more was provided with
nonresident fish and small game Ii
cense and the luggage is such as to
indicate that one purpose of the party
was to kill deer although no deer or
venison was discovered in the outfit.
The outfit contained guns, ammuni-
ton, shells and cartridges for deer
rifles, a complete camping outfit, hunt
ing and fishing clothes, and fishing
tackle in great variety.
The shipment was made to name
which the wardens have ascertained is
fictitious Two of the party are Lewis
Hughes and c. G. Seyfurth, both of
Freeport. Packages of fish in the lug
gage were addressed to them.
One of the trunks was brought to
the office of the warden in the capitol.
1t contained the carcass of large
raccOon, three fishing poles, several
shirts, about 1000 fishhooks, large
bottle of liniment, hunting cap, three
pairs Of hunting boots, one pair of
overalls hunting cap, hunting coat
marked Joe A. Gund and three boxes
Of pickerel and fine pike. The law
gives the wardens the power to seize
guns, game, tackel and any property
that is used in violation of the law
The wardens are planning to make a
number of arrests if they find the law
breakers have not yet left the state.
The skin of the raccoon will be
suited and mounted as a specimen.

MARIE coRELLI IN A QUARREL
Not so Adverse to "Puffs" as She
Had PROGRESSED to Be.


London, Oct. ia Quarrel has
arisen between Marie Corelli and the
editor of the Gentlewoman. The lat
ter publishes a note marked private
and confidential in which Miss Co
Corelli complains that her name was
omitted from the lists printed in the
Gentlewoman of those invited to the
royal Enclosure at the Braemar High
land gathering. AS the name of Lady
Byron was mentioned, and as her
Lady ship was merely Miss Corelli's
guest, the author says: II can only
conclude that my name was purposely
omitted She requests an expTana-
ton and says the omission caused the
greatest surprise and offense to many
persons, including Lady Byron.
The editor Of the Gentlewoman re-
plies by saying that Miss Corelli was
correct in supposing that her name
was purposely omitted, and that it
was in accordance with instructions
long since given by the editor Gin
Difference to Miss Corelli's expressed
opinions of newspaper puffs." In all
her books which the editor had been
able to read Miss Corelli gloried in an
opportunity of expressing contempt for
the press, and particularly for those
"snobs"-Miss Corelli's favorite word
who seek newspaper notoriety. Now
he realizes that Miss CorelIi has been
misunderstood, and that it would
really have gratified her to have been
named as present in the royal inclos-
ure. He can only plead some little ex-
cuse for the mistake because of the
apparent sincerity of Miss Corelli's
letters and writings on the subject of
"snobs" and newspapers. The editor
declares that logical consistency com
pels him to believe that Miss Corelli,
in marking her letter private and
confidential" only meant request for
publicity.
Both the action of the editor and
Miss Corelli's remarkable request
have caused much comment.

thing is going along famously for the
celebration to be given there on the
Fourth. The committees are getting down

given just as advertised. An entertain
ment for the children is the latest fea-
ture to be added.
The fare to Golconda and return
on the Fourth will be IS cents. A large
humber from here should go up to Col
conda and assist our sister town In cele-
brating. An excellent plan would be for
parties to organize, hire teams from the
