Nervousness is very common among
women. This condition is due to anemic
nerve centres. The nerve centres are the
reservoirs of nervous vitality. These cen
tres become bloodless for want of proper

THERE will be alteration in the cap.
itol site. Madison has been the seal
of government for more than half q
century, and there can be advanced
no valid reason whatever why il
should not continue in that honored
capacity. Of course, the pretensions
of Oshkosh do not claim serious con-
sideration, while Milwaukee, if it
really entertains the aspirations
which certain bills might imply it
does entertain, is essentially impossi-
BILE because of the firmly grounded
and almost universal hostility to en-
vironing the function of law making
with the peculiar conditions asso-
ciated with large city. Besides, the
constitution links capitol and univer-
sity together, and experience has
demonstrated conc1usively that our
good people are exceedingly loath to
allow tinkering with the fundamental
law.-Madison Democrat.

RATE BILL READY.
Comprehensive Railway Reform
Measure is Presented to the
Legislature FRIDAY.
COMMISSION IS ABSOLUTE.

/ The administration railroad rate
bill was introduced in both houses
| Friday. It's expected the measure
will pass both houses and sbecome a
law. It is long, comprehensive
measure on which the committee has
been working for weeks. It consulted
experts and authorities ali over the
country. It provides .fors three COM
missioners, to be appointed by the
governor for term of sixssyears, at a
salary Of SIS, 900 year.
In substance the bill provides that
the commission shall performsall the
duties now performed by the traffi c
managers Of the various roads of the
state. It gives the commission power
to change commodity rates, zone
rates, group rates, or any other rates
that are now esta b1ishedNbys the rail
roads themselves which.maysIseem to
the commission to be to the abest in
terests of the state. It provides, how
ever, that there shall be no secret rate
Of any kind or description. There is
no long or short haul provided for and
no distance tariff, and the commission
is left free to work out the schedules
which shall be fair to the railroads
and fair to every shipping interest in
| the state.
In addition to this absolute rate
making power it is proposed to give
the commission power to regulate
| traffic on roads for the convenience
not only of railroads but shippers as
| we'll, and to compel interchange of
traffic at functional points without in
convenience or unnecessary delay.
Provision is made for power to compel
the delivery Of cars upon spur tracks
where the necessity of traffic demands
| it. Power is given to the commission
to regulate charges for switching and
demurrage charges. Investigation of
all accidents is provided for.
| Of the commissioners one shall have
a general knowledge of railroads, ac-
counts and statistics, each of the
others shall have general under
| standing of matters relating to
railroad transportation and the law
| pertaining thereto.
| The governor at any time may re-
move any commissioner for inefdcien-
cy, neglect Of duty, or ma1feasance in
office.
Several other bills are aimed at
railroads and require the erection Of
tellta1es to safeguard railroad en-
ployees; also requiring automatic
coup1ers and grab irons on freight
cars; also continuous air brakes and
locomotives with drive wheel brakes;
also prohibiting the use of more than
Zone engine except in necessary cases;

Eleven People Narrowly Escape
Asphyxiation by II|uminat-
ing Gas Friday Night.
GAS COMES FROM CELLAR
John Henry. Wife and Children, S.
Nc Carthy and L. HI. BeaIl and
Son Are in Great Danger, and
All are Rendered Very Ill

Eleven people, John Henry, the
well known liveryman, his wife and
six children, L. Fl. Bea11 and son
Stanley, and S. Mccarthy, of the
Bijou theatre force, had a narrow es-
cape from death by illuminating gas
Friday night. They are all living at
the apartment over the gas office al
|210 Wisconsin street.
None of them noticed anything
wrong when they retired last evening
but some time IN the night a pipe
broke in the cellar under the gas Of
fee and gradually filled the fiat with
illuminating gas. Fortunately Mr..
Henry was awakened some time in
the night by the crying of one of the
children and as soon as he sme11ed
the gas he opened the windows of the
flat and carried his wife and children
out on the landing into the fresh air.
Two of the children we're unconscious
from the fumes of the gas and were
revived with difficulty. L. H. Beal1
had the narrowest escape of all and it
lis due solely to his will power that he
is alive today. When the presence OF
the gas in the fiat was discovered Mr..
BeaH was over looked in some way by
the other residents of the building who
took it for granted that he was not in
his room.
Mr.. Bea11 is bartender at the Matt
Schn1itt saloon and his duties often
keep him out late. When he was
aroused this morning at O'Clock he
was SO overcome that he could not
stand.
He fell to the floor from his bed,
bruising his mouth and face. He lay
on the floor in an unconscious condi-
ton for some time without the other
occupants of the building being aware
of his condition, and only came tc
enough to realize that he must make a
desperate effort to get into the open
air. He dragged himself over the
floor On his hands and knees and
finally succeeded in getting the door
Of his room open. He fell out into the
hall into the fresh air just in time.
Another ten minutes in the gas filled
room and he would surely have been
asphyxiated. All of the occupants OF
the fiat were made death1y i'll by the
fumes of the gas, but Mrs. Henry and
Mr.. Bea11 are the most affected this
afternoon.
It is believed that all of the chill.
dren are now out of danger and that
the effects of the gas will soon pass
away. The accident was caused by
the breaking Of a pipe in the cellar OF
the building, which was not discov.
cred before the employees Of the gas
company left in the evening.

late William Mulligan and one of the
pioneer residents of this county died
at the. home of her son-in-law Thomas
McCarron on Bond street Friday
afternoon. Mrs. Mu11igan had been

spected by all who came in contact
with her. Mrs. Mu1ligan was Of good
birth, we'll educated, and was held in
the highest respect and esteem
throught the entire county. She was
devOut member of the Catholic
church and leader in all good works.
Six children were born to Mrs. Multi
gan five of whom survive her. They

kee, Mrs. John Ruff, andIMrs. Thomas

Mu1ligan the other son died some
years ago.
Mr.. and Mrs. Mulligan were. among
the most active and public spirited

county, and the news of the Ideath of
Mrs. Mulligan will be received ewith
sorrow in many homes outside of her
immediate family circle.

WHEN the expert accountant EN-
ployed to straighten out the books OF
the city, completes his work, the tax
payers will know for the first time in
years just "where they are at" From
all indications the knowledge will not
add anything to the peace Of mind of
the people Of Kenosha. Every one
knows that the city is in bad shape
fnancia1ly-a glance at the tax rolls
will convince anybody of that fact
but no one appears to know the exact
condition of the municipal finances,
and when a complete balance sheet is
finally drawn upwe shall be happily
disappointed if the showing made is
not a good deal of a shock to the
great majority of the taxpayers.
