TO SAFEGUARD FREIGHT.
Northwestern Railway Has Effected In
noyation by Organizing It's Agents
at Madison

MADISON, Wis, Jan. 21.-[Special1
The North-W estern railroad has made
something of an innovation with the pur-
pose of protecting itself against damage
to freights. Several freight and passen-
ger agents of the division met i'll con-
Yention here and organized under the
name of the North-W estern Agents as
ISOLATION and elected the following Off
GERS:
President, J. P. Jething, Madison;
vice president, John Fox. EIroy; secre-
tary, H. B. Adams, Caledonia.
AS the general expenses are to be paid
by the North Western, no treasurer was
elected. The work is under the manage
ment of NJ. H. O'Neil, general freight
inspector of Chicago.
This plan will be tried on four divi-
sions, the Galena, the Iowa, the Wis
consin and the Madison. The other di-
visions may subsequently be brought
into this work. Assistant inspectors will
be appointed, whose duty it will be to go
with freight trains wherever they deem
it advisable, make suggestions to con-
ductors and brakemen in relation to han
ding freight, and do whatever they deem
necessary to reduce the claims against
the railroad on account of damages.

Mr. and Mrs. Lehman had lived in
the house in which they met their death
since November, when they purchased
the place after selling their farm in the
town of Woodville.
In the pockets of Mr.. Lehman were
securities and money amounting to
$4,000, which were not disturbed. There
were certificates of deposit on the bank
of Kaukauna of $1,000, $50 in cash, a
pension check of $36 and notes to the

SECRETARY FREAR
MAY DELEGATE WORK
Not Necessary That He Sign Warrants,
but Must See Them Signed-Need
Not Overwork His Eyes.

MADISON, Wis, Jan. .-LSpeclalI
State Treasurer Dahl received an opin-
ion from the attorney general this morn
ing which settles the controversy ID re-
Iation to signing the warrants by the
secretary of state and holds that he can
delegate his authority.
Frear Has Doctors Certificate.
The opinion copies a certificate from
DIR. Joseph Schneider of Milwaukee,
showing that Secretary of State Frears
ewes are in very poor condition, AFTER
which Mr.. Gilbert says:
From this certificate it appears that Mr..
Frear's eyes are in a condition which rem.
ders it dangerous to his eyeSight to attempt
to perform the work of signing a great
number of documents of any kind and l
do not think that the law would require
that he should do any act in respect to the
use of his eyes which might destroy the
sight even though the duty of the signing
of the warrants is imposed upon him.
Certificate Is Sufficient.
will say further l think the certificate
of Dr. Schneider is sufficient, which says
that his eyes are diseased and at present
tificate nor Mr.. Frear's attached letter fur
nishes you any satisfactory evidence that
the warrants sent to your department.
letter and certificate were received, were
signed by another at his request and in his
presence 1 think to protect you and sat
isfy the provisions of the law, Mr.. Frear
should file with you at the present time
certificate signed in his own handwriting
to the effect that the warrants indicating
same by number. now in your office, but to
which his name was signed by another per-
son were so signed by such other person
at his request and in his presence, and that
at the time he was so disabled by reason
of a disease of his eyes as to be unable
to sign such certificates. Hereafter every
batch of warrants, unless signed by the sec
rotary personally, sent to your office should
be accompanied with certificates of like
tenor.
Forestalls Litigation.
This opinion of Mr.. Gilbert, has some
what relieved the tension which has been
placed upon the treasurer's department.
More than 100 of the laborers in the
university have not had their pay for
December and are being pressed by the
merchants around the city for bills AS
Mr.. Dahl had refused to cash their war
rants they were helpless and had pre-
pared to get a writ of mandamus against
Secretary Frear to compel him to sign
these warrants in person on Monday.
This action on the part OF the laborers
in the university will not now be neces-
Sary.

HERE'S A BRAVE MAN.
D~res Call Mrs. Browning Greater Than
Her Husband in Pure Poetry.

This year is the hundredth anniver-
sary of the birth of Elizabeth Barrett
Browning, who first saw the light March
8, 1906.
One reason why the anniversary hunt
ers overlooked this fact, says The Book
man. may be found in the fact that Rob
ert Browning's hundredth anniversary
does not come until 1912, and possibly
few persons are aware that Mrs. Brown
ing was six years older than her hus-
band.
If we were going to make a point IF
CentenarieS we should certainly make
more of a to-dO over Mrs. Browning than
over her husband, continues the writer,
for she was undoubtedly in pure poetry
a greater genius than he His intellect
was the more powerful; but for sheer
beauty of dicton and for perfect music
her finest work rose above the level of
anything that he achieved.
Had she done nothing more than her
'sSonnets from the Portuguese" she
would have deserved this praise since
there is no doubt that they remain quite
unsurpassed in English.
It is a pity that there exists no vera
cious, unmOdiied portrait of Mrs
Browning. She was extraordinarily fas-
cinating. vet to feel her fascination one
had to be near her, to hear her voice
and to watch the play of expression
upon her wonderfully MODlIe features
Regarded critically, she was not only
far from beautiful. but was almost I'M
canny in the strangeness of her appear
ance.
Julian Hawthorne, who as a boy saw
her often at Casa Guidi in Florence, de-
scribes her with uncompromising frank
ness as "a miniature mol:strosity.' He
says:
There was no body to her; only a
nj lpI-o
and an enormous mouth, with thick lips.
No portrait of her has dared to show the
half of it. Her hand was like bird $
claw"
Students of comparative physiognomy
will find curious resemblance in the
mouths of Mrs. Browning. George Elliot
and George Sand, and from this reseE-
bIance they are at liberty to draw de-
auctions as to a general likeness of tenn
permanent in the three women.
