OF OLD SOCIETY
BUTTER MAKERS ASSOCIATION
FILES ARTICLES.
HAVE LOBBYING IN VIEW
M Members Feel That More Can be Ac-
compIished Under Legal Organiza-
ton and Will Push Pure Food and
Other Bills for Benefit Of Cream
cries at Legislative Session.
Madison, Dec. 20.

MdulSOu, D0C. A0'
The Wisconsin Butter Makers asso-
citation, which has existed for several
years as an incorporated body filed
The reason for Incorporating, as eX-
of the secretary of state yesterday.
The reason for incorporating, as eX-
planned by Prof. E. H. harrington, sec
rotary Of the association, is that the
organization may have more power to
act as a body.
The more important reason for in
cooperating, perhaps, is the fact that
the association intends to push num-
Der of bills at the legislative session,
the bills relating to pure food laws and
other proposed statutes which are de-
sired to be enacted for the benefit OF
creamery operators and owners, osten-
sibly for farmers also.
According to the articles Of incor-
ton are as follows:
"The education of the members for
a better knowledge of creamery opera
ton, promoting progress in the art OF
butter making, in the care and man
agemen3 of creameries, the sale, trans
portation and storage Of butter, and in
the wedding out of incOmpetency in
the business Of butter making; the
further object of the incorporation is
to demand a thorough revision and
rigid enforcement of such laws as will
protect the manufacture and sale of
pure dairy products against fraudu-
lent limitations, and to suggest and en-
courage the enactment of such laws in
the future as experience may from
time to time demonstrate to be neces-
sa1y for the pubic good of the dairy
industry"
The incorporation is made without
capital stock and the members are de-
signed 70 be practical creamery operat-
ors. The annual fee of 81 is to be col
lected in advance Of members.
The FIST meeting of the incorpora-
ton is to be held February 26, at Mad
ison. The incorporators are the lead
ing officers and members Of the old
association, as follows:
F. B. Fulmer, Ettrick, Trempealeau
county, president Of the association;
G. B. Winsor, Mansion, Juneau county,
member of the board of directors; E.
H. harrington, professor Of dairy hus
bandry at the university, sec: etary Of

shifted to the large hall of the univer-
sity gymnasium, mile west of the

fact it is expected that the present in
auguration will attract to Madison
more visitors from other places in the
state than any similar previous occa-
sion.

London, Ont, Dec. 28.-Details Of
the accident on the Grand Trunk near
Wanstead Friday night have been re
ceived. The trains in collision were
the Pacific express and a freight. The
express was running unusually fast TO
make up lost time. The freight was
endeavoring to make a siding to get
clear Of the express, but failed. There
was a crash, the locomotives reared
up and fell over in the ditch. the bag
gage car of the express teIescoped the
smoker and in an instant the cries of
the wounded and dying filed the air.
Twenty-eight persons are dead, while
the injured will number considerably
more and many of these may die.
Many of the dead are terribly mutt
lated. The responsibility for the &C
cident is not definitely fixed, but it is
believed to have been due to the tele-
graph operators error in delivering a
train order. The two Pullman sleep
ers remained on the track and were
converted into temporary hospitals.
In these the wounded were placed.

FUNNY kind
OF BOATS
TORPEDO BOAT DESTROYERS VI
RAGO AND SPARROWHAWK AR
RIVE TODAY WITH CRUISER.

The harbor is fairly alive with naval
vessels. The British cruiser Amphion
and British torpedo boat destroyers VII
rago and Sparrowhawk arrived this
morning from Esquimalt and are now
moored inside the harbor.
The vessels had been expected yes
terday but, owning to bad weather,
they We're delayed. They sailed from
Esquimalt April Is. After leaving Es-
quimalt heavy weather was expert
enced, so the Amphion took hold of the
two boats and towed them along. She
towed them for more than half OF the
way. Once In heavy weather, the tow
line on the SparrOWhaWk parted. The
tow was soon caught up however, as
the destroyer was under her own steam
and the damage was soon remedied.
The arrival Of the vessels caused con-
siderable excitement along the Water
Frant. Throughout the city generally
there was much interest taken in the
boats. The destrOyers were craft
strange to this port. Very few people
had ever seen any craft of this descrip-
ton. Off Waikiki, the cruiser doomed
up tall and big, while the little destroy
ers looked not bigger than whale boats.
The craft are built for speed and are
equipped with horse power, enormously
out of proportion to their tonnage. Both
of the destrOyers are of $50 tons regis
ter and they each can attain speed of
