1t is very noticeable tn roughout the
United States that there is a general
and a considerable advance in the
prices of all manufactured articles.
There has been gradual increase
brought on largely because of the in
creased demand, the result of which is
that labor has awakened to the fact it
is not being paid it's dues and in most
places the wage scale has been adj
vanced. this would not be so bad were
it not for the fact that because of this
demand there is evidence of an ad-
ditional raise in the price of manu-
featured articles.

Inasmuch as an official investiga-

the state prison, refused to allow
Frank Tanke to be interviewed when
requestedto by the Minneapolis papers.
The warden was very much to the point
in his comments upon the case. He
stated that if the charges were correct
the affair was an outrage upon justice
and the officers should at once be re-
moved.
If the allegations are proven, it is
considered probable among state Off
Gals that stringent regulations will be
placed on sheriffs hereafter.

Henry MitZner, a student at. DR..

perience last Friday morning which
might have proven fatal. He was on
his way to the college and when near
the creamery noticed that the electric
light wires were lying across the side
walk, they having been torn from the
poles by bolt of lighting during the
storm Of the night before. STOPPING
over, he attempted to throw the wire
from the walk but as he did so his
thumb. came in contact with a section
which was not insulated and he dropped
senseless. VIM. Biek, fellow student
who was following, thought him dead
but after ten minutes he recovered con-
seriousness. His right thumb was badly
burned by the current For some time
after the accident the boy was dazed
and Supplied but with the assistance of
4Biek succeeded in reaching the school.
Prof. j. Schaller then sent a young
man down to watch the wire and pre-
vent other persons from touching it
until electricians could arrive and re-
pair the break. Young Mitzner is Is

engagement Of the Milwaukee German
Theatre Co. under the direction of
Mr.. L. G. Kreiss, from the Papst The
atre. AS an organization it scarcely
needs any word Of commend alton here
The Papst Theatre Co. is known to
everybody as the leading German

We have ascertained that Manager
Kreiss always brought with him a
good company, but this year he claims
that his artists are even superior to
those of former years. Gustav Hartz-
helm, Ludwig Kreiss, Carl Koenig,
Anna Roithmeyer, are all names
which arouse pleasant memories. The
newcomers who will make their first
bow before our public, are: Emma
Brentano, Mathilde Dierks, Jenny
Ganella, Mariane Coma, Sieg. Elfeld,
AdOlph Ochumacher, Bernhard Wenk-
haus, all of whom are artists of wide
known reputation. The company will
appear at the Turner Theatre Fri

Fears Were GrOundless.

A thread of romance runs through
the tragedy connected with the death
OF the unknown young man, whose
body was found near the railroad
track in this city last week. It seems,
as in olden times, there is in this city
a young lady who has a lover whose
irregular habits have more than once
caused her annoyance. He lives out
of the city and sometimes has recourse
to the railroad to gain entrance to
the city; sometimes he rides and often
he walks. He had sent word sometime
previous, to his fair inamorata that
he would call, and she had stayed at
home nights for several weeks looking
in vain for her recreant lover, when
the news came to her that a man had
