engineer on the Cincinnati, New Or
leans & Texas Pacific Railway, whose
home IS at Longview, Texas.
While running an engine some
years ago" he says, II fell off and
hurt my knee and spine and ! have
always considered this to be the cause
of my illness. The sciatica took hold
Of me from my heel to the back OF
my head. The pain was the worst
| ever suffered in my life and my leg
and back were twisted out Of shape.
| was under physicians care for
several months and for six months
could not get out Of bed. ! also went
to Hot Springs but came back in a

Money for LEGAL Services.

Secretary Of State Frear sent to
the assembly a statement OF the total
amount of money that has been paid
out by the state for legal services
during the last ten years. The infor-
nation was called for by resolution
introduced by Assemblyman l.. H.
Bancroft of Richland Center and
adopted several days ago. Judge
HanCrofls primary purpose in calling
for this information was to show the
need of incrya ing the salary of the
attorney general from $4,000 to $4,000
a year so that high class lawyers
would seek the office, thus making 1t
unnecessary for the state to employ
special counsel to look after its more
important litigation
The amount paid TO the attorney
general and his assistants during the
ten years was $7S,0GO.lt, and to at
tOrnrys appointed for special pur-
poses. $ji.5il.20

MadisOn-During a discussion in
the lower house on bill appropriate
Ing $4,000 annually to the Wisconsin
Agricultural Experiment association,
Assemblyman l.. II. Bancroft, of Rich
land Center, intimated that he would
vigorously oppose any considerable
Appropriation for that institution dur
ing the present session, on the ground
that the appropriation carried by 1t
was really one for the university ana
as such should be included in the gen
eral university appropriation BIZ! lie
declared that the university had
fixed income of over sl,250000 annual
ly and was spending more than 81
000,0 annually constantly going IN
10 debt and exceeding its appropria-
tions every year He said that while
the state was spending only about
ten dollars per capita per annum on
the pupils in the common schools, II
was spending $37450 per capita on
the students in the university, He
concluded by moving TO lay the bill
on the table McssTs. SChauer,
Hughes. Elver, Ainsworth and Nc.
Gregor defended the university,
and urged favorable action on The
bill It was pointed out that the
university itself was not asking
for this appropriation but that the
association was an entirely independ-
ent organization which some profes-
sors of the college Of agriculture were
assisting simply because The members
were former students OF the school
and were engaged in the bencfceRt
pursuit Of breeding high grade grains
for the farmers Of the state. 1t was
declared that the benefit derived from
this work repaid the state many times
over for the appropriations made.
Finally the motion 10 table the bill
was voted down and Mr.. Bancroft
himself voted in favor Of he measure.
