SOMEONE of clear conception in
response to request for a toast on
F" Badgerdom,' truthfully sayeth:
wisconsin is the most beautiful and
most composite Of commonwealths.
The sun never kissed the flowers in
a fairer or more fruitful land. All
the resources which bring wealth
and power to country are here in
amplest measure. The great diver
sity Of her interests, the variety OF
her productions and the intelligence
Of her citizens are destined to make
her eventually the peerless state.
We must remember that Wisconsin
is in infancy. The curling smoke
may still be seen from the wigwams
of the original Americans. Count
less fertile and virgin acres yet await
the pillow OF the pioneer. Inestimable
mines are just being discovered"

never use any considerable PARTON of

After they had mixed up pretty lively
and Harris had stabbed Doyle he took
the road to the left, down East Fourth
street, and in the story book it led down
to arrest and prison and now $500 bond.
But Mrs. Harris stayed with Doyle and
went with him to doctors office and
saw him sewed up and sent to the hos
pital and she called at the hospital some
days afterwards and begged Doyle not
to prosecute Harris, for she was going to
try it again and marry him once more
Doyle declined, and he appeared this
morning, rather pale and worn looking,
to explain it all and testify against Har-

MUST BE TRIED.
Hero of Pike Marriage Before
City Court.
Ed Harris Charged With Stab
bling A. Doyle.
MRS. HARRIS In CASE.
She Appeared to Prefer the At
tentions Of Doyle.
Harris Put an End to 1t With a
Knife.

In the city court this morning, be-
fore Judge McCabe5 Ed Harris was
tried on the charge of assaulting
Alfred Doyle with intent to kill Har-
ris was bound over under $500 bond
to stand trial in the district court.
Ed Harris was the man who was
married during the Kansas semi-cen-
tennial celebration on a platform in
front of the south steps of the state
house, within the enclosure of the
Parker Coliseum. to which an admis-
sion of 25 cents was charged Mrs
Harris, who had been Mrs. Harris
twice before and had been twice di-
vorced, was the bride who was listed
as one of the contracting parties
This same Mrs. Harris was also the
cause, primarily, of Mr.. Harris stab
bling Mr.. Doyle in a fight on Kansas
avenue and Fourth streets on May 1.
Mr.. Harris was arrested, and Mr..
Doyle was sent to the hospital, and
for nine days he thought he would
die.
The fight occurred before Mrs. Har-
ris married Mr.. Harris for the third
time. Mrs. Harris was in the court
room this morning, and so was Mr..
Harris and Mr. DOyle-and the past
standing of the three parties was be
fore the court.
1t seems that during the times that
Mr.. Harris has not been married to
Mrs. Harris that Mr.. Doyle has been
quite attentive to her, and that Mr..
Harris resented such attentions
toward his divorced wife. The court
ing of Mrs. Harris by Doyle was quite
romantic and just at the time of the
fight was something like a scene from
Under the Red Robe"
Mr.. Doyle testified that he was paying
attentions" to Mrs. Harris in Usage City
some time last February, after the di-
vOrce had been granted, and that Harris
met him and was greatly enTaged and
threatened to disturb his quiet, counting
days
Now Mr. Doyle did not see why he
should not court Mrs. Harris If Mrs Har-
Tis was agreeable to such attentions. as
the court had already twice severed the
holy bonds of wedIock which bound her
to Ed Harris. So Alfred persisted and 1t
so happened that when Mrs Harris came
to Topeka, Doyle came, too, and ne called
on her and took her walking and went
with her to visit friends. Doyle had
heard that Harris had threatened to DO
him bodily harm and he admitted tina [
he invested in a revolver and carried II
for a. few days for the purpose Of defense
ceased to carry his small arsenal when
Harris attacked him and at that time ne
had only "a pocket knife and a razor
which he did not use. He was walking
riS on May ] when they met Id Harris
The scene was dramatic and here is
where the likeness to Stanley Weyman' $
romantic play and novel comes IN Har-
This is the parting of ways, announc-
ed Harris

I want you to go with me- said

THE ..MILKsICK WEED"
Is Considered Deadly Alike to Both
Man and Beast.

From time to time in the last five
decades Tennesseeans have been stirr-
ed to a profound sense of interest in
the states mysterious malady, milk
sickness as its deadly temperance in
certain sections of the state has been
followed by fatal results to human be-
ings and to stock No one has ever
discovered the cause of the malady,
from which death relieves the victim
after such physical agony as almost de-
prives the human species of the power
of speech, and dumb brutes express
their SufferingS by frenZied search for
water to cool the thirst which con-
sumes them. Once by n stream, they
plunge or fall into it, and quickly drink
themselves to death.
The fatal sickness is known to a Iinni-
ted extent in several sections of the
state, but exists principally near Spar
ia, in White county. 1t is contracted
through drinking the milk of cows that
have eaten a certain weed, known as
the "millsick weed, which looks
somewhat like clover and grows thick
ly on the infected land. But what con-
stitutes the poison in the weed is no
more determined today than it was
when first located by the keen Witted
nature wise mOuntaineerS who have
been its chief victims. It has been
ascribed at various times to minerals
whose poison is absorbed in the roots
of the .'milksick' plant; to a vapor
from some fungOuS growth, and to the
action of the dew, producing, in con-
nection with the life of the plant, 4
certain poisonous acid. But all of these
theories have failed under tests applied
by practical science. On the largest in
fected section known to exist in the
limits of the state, t'NIilksick Noun
tain in White county, no. mineral
whatever exists; cattle which ate the
'milksick weed after the dew had
dried died in agony, just as those which
ate it when the dew was fresh and
sparkling, and the strietest search fail
ed to find any fungous growth what
ever.-LOuisyille Courier-J Ournsl.
