done now is to get our farmers to

1t"
This was the declaration made
by Frank G.. Harris, former State
Treasure, on Thursday before the
Capitol investigation commission
after three hours searching ex-
animation, in which he had gwen
the most startling testimony tend
ing to show colluslon in the con-
tracts for the S13. 100000 capitol.
Mr.. Harris was present as vol
unteer witness, and special ses-
sion of the commission was arrang-
ed to hear him, as he leaves on
Saturday for Europe. James
Scarlet, chief counsel for the in p.
vestigators, kept up such a fire Of
pointed questions that at the end
of his long examination the former
state officer was involved in maze
of explanations, denials and re-
ordinations.
He admitted that the law of 1895,
governing the operations of the
board of public grounds and build
ings, had been grossly violated,
and sought refuge behind the as
sertion that it was not practicable
in such vast scheme of the furn-
ishing of the capitol to comply with
the restrictions of the act.
Finally, under the terrific strain,
the former treasurer, who is in i'll
health, in admitting the apparent
fraud practiced in furnishln g the
S19, 100000 palace, made the dec
laration quoted.

When the engagement is to be
announced, the proper thing is
for the young girl to write brief,
informal notes to her intimate
friends, telling them the news.
Her mother writes to older
friends and to mem bers of the
family, although 1T is an atten-
tion much appreciated by older
persons, liza girl herself takes
the trouble and thought to write
to them, instead of delegating the
duty to her mother. In any case,
there should be no failure on the
part of one or the other to write
to those who are supposed to be
interested in the event; they may
be deeply offended If forgotten.
1t is, of course, not the custom to
write to mere acq uaintances. The
young mans mother writes to
the mem bers of his family con-
nectlon, and the young man him
self writes to a few of his men
friends or may speak to them of
his good fortune. All of the
notes are sent out by post and
sent simultaneously. At least
the family of theyoung girlshould
take the initiative in the matter,
it being understood that a young
man and his family are NOT at hb.
erty to tell of the engagement un'
til 1t has first been made known
by the family of his iancee. -

MULE WAR" GETS HOT,
Honduras Town Stormed by Nicaraguan
Navy-Why the Great Struggle
Is Being Waged

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 49,
Trujillo, Honduras, is reported to have
been stormed by the Nicaraguan vessels
which have been cruising along the Hon
duran coast for several days.
After weeks of speculation and wild
guesses, the people Of Honduras and Nj
caragua have been informed they are
engaged in this fierce, bloodless war over
a mule. 1t belonged to Senior Ireno Sal
gado of Los Manos. The Honduran
general-in-chief, Emiliano Chomorro, had
spied that mule and thought it would
make a good mount.
Spies from Nicaragua heard of the
scheme and reported to Jose D. Gomez,
Nicaraguan minister of foreign affairs.
He realized that this addition to the
Honduran army would cause dissatisfac
ton in the Nicaraguan ranks. and adj
vised that the Nicaraguans attach the
animal.
Accordingly thirty-fve soldiers were
sent just across the border and they
came home with the mule. 1t greatly
pleased Gen. Depuelto, acting comman-
der of the Nicaraguan forces.
Senior Agusto c. Coello, Honduran
minister of foreign affairs, sent a mes
sage demanding the mule and charging
the Nicaraguans with invading Hondur
an territory. Senior Gomez answered.
denying the charges. He said his men
beckoned to Maud, who trotted across.
Other correspondence followed and both
sides became insulting.

PLATZ BUYS PLANTATION.
Property in Oaxaca, Mexico, Involved in
Litigation, Taken by Horne-Salzer
Interests in Company.

LA CROSSE, Wis, March 1S.-[Spe-
cial. 1.-The property of the Mexican
Plantation company in Oaxaca, Mexico,
was sold today by the trustees. The
sale was a lively one in which represen-
tatiyes of the bondholders and three syn
dicates participated. The successful bid
der was Max S. Platz of La Crosse,
who offered S20.4OO.
Mr.. Platz stated he represented a syn
dictate of local capitalists whose names
he did not divuIge. The Platz interest
has been closely associated in the old
company with those of Trustees Henry
e. Horn and Henry A. Salzer, and it is
believed that all these will have holdings
in the new syndicate.
The sale was delayed by an attempt
in behalf of A. Rosenberg of Milwaukee
to secure an order directing how the trus-
tees should disburse the proceeds. Mr.
Rosenberg's object was to secure the dis
tribution of the purchase money among
the creditors instead of the bondholders,
whose claims would absorb the entire
amount. Mr. Rosenberg claims to have
a lien on the property.
Judge Fruit issued preliminary order,
but later Cancelled it Oh the ground that
the trustees had full authority. Mr..
Rosenberg then entered the competition
and was one of the principal bidders for

ARCHITECT SHOT;
SHIELDS WOMAN.
H. A. GRAVES, JR., vICTIll OF UN-
SUCCESSFUL ATTEMPT AT MUIR
DER AT KENOSHA
RACINE LOVE AFFAIR CLUE
But Young Man Says if She Who Is Sus-
pected Is Held, He Will Not
Prosecute.

KENOSHA. Wis, March 49, Spe-
cial. H A. Graves, Jr, of prominent
Racine, Wis, family was shot III the
dark in the office of the A. l.. tlegei
Building company late Monday night.
The assailant is not known, but a
strange love ENHANCEMENT is the clue
the police are working on.
Graves saved himself by throwing up
his hands and the bullet, which was
from a 22-caliber revolver, passed dl-
rectly through his left hand and no vital
spot was touched. Powder from the re-
yolyer blackened the shirt worn by
Graves
One suspect, well known henosha
young man, was arrested, but Graves
said that he was not the man who fired
the shot.
Circumstantial evidence seems to in
dictate that the shot that wounded Graves
was fired by a woman and that woman
was disguised as man. Graves IS
said to be willing to tell all he knows
about the tragedy but is inclined to
shield the identity of the woman VINO,
it is thought, held the revolver.
Prominent Racine Young Man.
Graves is a member of one of the most
prominent families in Racine and hved
with his parents at 1886 Wisconsin
street in that city until he came here a
short time ago to work as an architect
in the office of the A. l.. Elegel com
pany He is q quiet young man and Tor
this reason the mystery of the shooting
is even deeper.
He left the apartments OF MI. ana
Mrs. Flegel at the Gerry Inn at 9i9o
o'clock and returned to the office. de
had read awhile before he returned to
his sleeping room in the rear of the suite.
He was taking off his clothes when he
heard the latch of the front door click
and he went to, the front part OF the
office.
AS he crossed the threshold some one
shouted, Throw up your hands. AS
Graves threw up his hands revolver
was pushed directly in front OF him ana
the shot fired. When Graves came to
his senses the room was empty. Nothlng
had been touched and two gold watches
which he had in his pockets were stlli
there.
Racine Woman Threatened Life.
In this connection a story is told OF
the infatuation of married woman re-
siding in Racine for the young man
and the friends Of Graves declare that
the woman was in love with him before
he came to Kenosha. The woman and
her husband were close friends OF the
Graves family. Some time ago this
woman came to Kenosha and went to
the office of Graves and at that time she
found him in close conversation With a
well known young Kenosha girl, There
was a scene between the two women and
Graves admits that before the Racine
woman left the office she threatened to
kill him and then commit suicide.
Graves declares that he did not pc
lieye that the woman was in earnest, but
he asked that her whereabouts last night
be investigated. He refused to diyulge
her name and declared that should it be
found that it was she who fired the
shot he would not prosecute.
