COMMITTED SUICIDE
Tired of Life Wenzel SIadky Hangs
Himself

Monday afternoon the IA year old
daughter Of Wenzel Sladky discovered
her fathers body hanging in the barn.
The alarm was given and people from
all over flooded to the house but the
body was not cut down until DR.. Fraser
arrived about 10 minutes after its dis
coyery. The foolish notion that body
cannot be removed except by an autho-
rized person. is quite prevalent here.
DR.. Fraser endeavored to restore life
but finally pronounced Sladky dead.
Here is again case that shows what a
man can do for himself.
At the time Of decth Sladky was 40
years old, he had formerly lived in the
town of Kossuth being a prosperous
we'll to do farmer and respected by all.
But like many one before him he got
the notion that saloon keeper had an
easy life, and twelve years ago he sold
his farm and came to town to embark
in the boarding house and saloon bust
ness He soon became his own best
customer and kept drifting down hill
As is usually the case 20 here also
domestic troubles we've added to the
financial ones and after a stormy scene
Sunday night his wife concluded to get
divorce from him. When he was
notified of this he became quiet and
sullen and in the afternoon did away
with himself.
He leaves wife aid three children
and an aged mother. 1t is mournful
fact that they will be able to get along
better without him than with him.
The funeral took place Wednesday
morning at S'clock.

Both of the riders attempted to coast

vance, but Charles gained on him, till
he suddenly realized that he would have
to run into his companion or take the
gutter, he took the latter, and few
moments later the neighbors carried
him from the road and laid him on the
grass But you can't kill Canada

Charles revived and is about town again
as happy as lark, Next time when
Charles is going to coast down hill he

TEACHERS INSTITUTE
NOW IN PROGRESS
The Most Successful Institute
Ever Conducted at ManitOwOc
Closes Friday
TEACHERS WERE ENROLLED
Special Lectures on the Need OF the
Country Schools We're Given Every
Afternoon

The teachers institute held in the
north side school closes its weeks work
tomorrow, Friday, and was the most
successful ever held in the coanty.
Every year since Superintendent Chris
tiansen has been at the head of our
school has marked an increase not only
in the number of attendance but also Of
the interest taken in the work. Scholars
were enrolled only for the first two days
and then the number of 1l8 was reach
ed, The institute was conducted by
Professors Hewitt Of Oshkosh and Land
graf of Marinette assisted by Professor
Hyer and Supt. Christensen from here.
The attendants were divided into divi-
sions and work in Arithmetic. History.
Reading and Agriculture was done
while in the afternoon Of every day
special lectures or the Needs of the
Country School" were delivered by the
conductors
State superintendent Of schools Cary
visited the institute the opening day
and expressed himself as we'll satisfied
with the attendance and work done
There WAS only one remarkable thing
about the institute and that was the
absence OF the city teachers This was
all the more go rs number of them
are very weak in just the work that is
being done at the institute Every
person that desires to be up to date in
any particular business finds that he or
she can learn by coming in contact with
other people and especially by meet
ing those that are recognized rs under
standing that particular work. Our
city schools pay high wages and have a
right to demand good service in return
therefore and if the lasses and laddies
do not deem themselves able to learn
anything they also cannot complain il
their services bring a lower price.

HORSES STRIKE LIVE WIRE
Causes Excitement on Hamilton Street
But No Injury is Done.

Monday evening a charged electric
wire hung to the ground at the corner
Of Seventh and Hamilton streets. A
horse and buggy came along when sud
denly the horse came in contact with
the wire and was thrown to the ground.
The horse was assisted to get up and
had scarcely gotten out of the way of
the wire when another rig arrived. A
warning was shouted to the people but
they never needed it until suddenly
their horse went down, breaking the
fills in the fall The current only
stunned the animal temporarily and all
the parties escaped with none the worse
for their experience. These live wires
about town are getting little too nu-
merous and caution ought to be exer-
cised before a serious accident happens.

be better off than before, but if the
gangrene spreads; we'll you can see
what the result will be"
Secretary Root is to retire from the
Cabinet, not Immediately but probably
some time in December. Mr.. Roots re-
tirement will be serious loss to Presi-
dent Roosevelt who has long been oppos-
ing il, for in all the cabinet there are but
two men on whose judgment Theodore
Roosevelt. relies, but two men who can
influence him for his own good when he
has determined upon an injudicious step,
Those men are Hay and Root and of the
two Root is, in many instances, the
lieved that Governor Taft will succeed
Secretary Root. Through the operation
of the general staff plan, the direction
of the army, which has heretofore de
volved on the Secretary of War, has de-
volved on the staff and with a compe-
tent staff of experienced army officers Il
thorough incompetent could do little
harm as Secretary Of War" l quote n
prominent naval officer who was advo-
eating the staff plan for the navy to
make up for the deficiencies of Secretary
Moody. The serious problems which
are likely to arise in the War Depart
ment in the near future will, therefore,
concern the Philippines and it is be.
lieved that Tafts familiarity with Phil
ippine conditions would make him "a
valuable officer Of the administration.
Postmaster General Payne is sched
uled for retirement rs soon as it can be
said that he is not retiring under fire"
and the old story that Secretary Wilson
is to resign, to make life position Ms
