When the announcement was made
that this plant was to leave Marsh
field, Ex-Gov. Upham came to the
rescue with the announcement that
he would build veneer plant, larger
than that of the Roddis Co., and
would give employment to all the
men who were thrown out of work by
the burning of that plant.

Mr.. WHITING TALKS
ABOUT NEW ROAD
Submits Copy of Franchise
Which Agrees to Start Build.
ing Immediately-=R0ad From
Stevens Point to NekO0sa.

G. A. Whiting, of Neenah, was in
the city Friday and while here placed
in the hands of Mayor Hanna a copy
of an ordinance which the Stevens
Point & Grand Rapids Railway Com
pany desires to have adopted by the
common council. The presentation of
the ordinance at this time is informal,
as the officers of the company have
not as yet been elected. A meeting
for this purpose was held at Mil
wauHee Monday and after the
officers have been elected the applica-
tion now in the hands of the mayor
will be signed by the president of the
company and will probably come be
fore the council for consideration at
it's next meeting
Application is made for franchise
from the city of Stevens Point for the
construction, maintenance and opera
tion of street railway within the
city for the use of the streets and
bridges of the city for that purpose,
under conditions set forth in the fran
chise. One of the provisions of the
proposed franchise, which fills several
typewriter pages, is that ii the COM
pany fails to commence to build and
lay track before March /, 1908, or to
finish at least one mile of single track
before the first day of November, 1908,
the franchise shall be void.
A similar franchise has been sub
mitted to the conncil of Grand Rap
ids.
Mr.. Whiting, who is one of the in
corporators of the road, said that their
charter authorizes them to operate
either by electric power or steam, or
both, and to do everything that a
railroad may do, carry passengers,
mail, and express, haul freight, etc.
He said the present plan contemplated
the building of road from Stevens
Point to Nekoosa, distance of about
% miles. When asked when work
might reasonably be expected to begin
he said that was a question no one
could answer at this time. One of the
first steps will be to secure certain
franchises. Then surveys and eStl-
mates will have to be made, and the
financing of the road even though it
be only % miles long, is in itself no
small proposition. The present esti-
mate of the cost of an electric road
from this city to Nekoosa is about

and better than before at Marshfield.
This was pleasant news to the city
of Marshfield as the city would have
suffered greatly by the removal of
this plant to Black River Falls where
the saw-mill of the same company is
located. The citizens of the Sawdust
city were anxious that the Roddis
Co. should rebuild, and it is probable
that the conclusion of the latter was
reached in a hurry. as the previous
announcement had been made only
twenty-four hours before that the new
plant would be built at Black River
Falls.

port upon the comparative study OF the
brains 81 the six greatest scientists IN

brain OF walt whitman had been lost
absolutely to science by the careless
ness OF an employee in a hospital. The
employee allowed IL 90 drop on the floor

To that IS his discovery that the brains

aminations Of the brains of Or. Joseph

Andrew J. Parker Harrison Allen,
Prof. Edward D. Cope. and DR.. William

When the executors of the estate OF
Walt Whitman in this city were in
formed of the loss of the brain of the
philosopher they declared this was
breach of trust. Horace L. Traubel,
literary executor of the will and the
poets most intimate friend, declared
none of the executors ever had been
informed the brain had been lost. He
will begin the investigation at once.
In the course of his investigation DIR.
Spitzka examined ten brains of ordin-
airy healthy men who had committed

races, comprising Eskimos, Japanese
and Papuans. He says persons pos

persons excelling in the creative arts,

eral, have always heavier, larger brains
than those of the ordinary population.

young men have trained hard for three
weeks. setting themselves the daily
task Of walking from Head house at

vatory and return.
They are exceedingly enthusiastic
and are confident of reaching their
goal in schedule time. They think
they can do it in approximately twenty
days They will start for the Windy
City Monday morning and on their way
through this city Will call on Mayor
Fitzgerald in order to get credentials.
Unlike Weston. they are starting on
their Ions journey practically without
money, and will endeavor to make their
destination without any personal out
lay. They figure on getting enough
money from the sale OF souvenirs to de-
fray expenses. For the first week it
IS their intention TO cover approxi-
mately seventy five miles day and in
the second they viii walk at the rate
OF hve miles an hour. Like Weston.
they have decided not to so on the

DEATH FOR NINE. GOOLO
Woman Must Suffer Death
Penalty for Murder of
Emma Levin.

Monte Carlo, Dec. 5.-After a speedy
trial before the superior court of Mon
AGO, We're St. Leger Goold and his wife,
Marie. were convicted yesterday of the
murder of Emma Levin here last sum-
mer.
The court found that Mrs. Goold was
the chief instigator Of the crime and
sentenced her to death by the guillo-
tine, and that Goold was less respon-
sible because he was under the in
fluence of liquor at the time of the
murder was committed and sentenced
him to Imprisonment for life.

husband bent over her solicitously the
guards pushed him back. She appeared
to be in the last stage of physical col
lapse, as she might well be after three
hours of direct attack by the skillful
government prosecutor, who left no
part of her life free from accusation.
He ridlculed her aristocratic preten-
tons. explained her peasant origin, and

Crowd Intensely Excited.
Great crowds which had gathered
within and without the building re-
ceived the announcement of the convic-
ton with great excitement. applause
following the rendering of the verdict
by the court.
The trial of the Goods consumed less
than three days. 1t attracted attention
all over the world because of the enor-
nifty Of the crime. the manner in which
it was committed. and the dramatic ar
rest of the principals while seeking to
escape with a trunk containing portions
of the body in their possession.
Goold and his wife left Monte Carlo
early last August. going to Marseilles.
A hotel porter in that city noticed blood
oozing from trunk which the two had
brought with them. and when they
drove of with the trunk he notified the
police and their arrest followed.
GOoId Confessed the Murder.
Statements as to the facts in the case
were at great variance. Goold himself
confessed that he committed the murder
and that his wife had nothing to do
with it. The police did not put much
faith in his story. and as the case was
presented TO the court his wife was
! shown to be the real instigator.
The evidence went 10 show that
