fathers occupied when they gathered
In legislative session in 1848. The de
velopment of the great commonwealth
is shown in the required amplification
OF its statehouse. The legislature of
Wisconsin has far outgrown the mod.
est little building which at the time Of
it's erection was considered the finest
OF Its kind. 1t has demands that the
enlarged capitol could not meet, and
so the old will give place to the new
Work on the new structure Is being
rapidly pushed, and at the meeting of
December 81 specimens of the best
grades of building material for the
outside walls were submitted by
Architect Post.
In the early days many towns were
anxious to have the capitol building
located within their limits, and many
a bitter contest was waged over its
location. None of the seventeen appli-
cants succeeded in securing 1t. A
town was laid out especially adapted
to its needs, site unrivaled in nat
ural beauty by any Wisconsin town.
The location of the present state
capitol was selected by James D. Doty
In 1886, and in December of that year
when the legislature convened at Bel.
mont, an act was passed to establish
the statehouse at Madison. There
were many reasons why this site was
selected, and chief among them was
the central location. Milwaukee, Green
Bay and the lead mining region in the
southwestern part of the state were
the principal centers of immigration

son the distance from any one of the
points would be about equal. The
Wisconsin territory had belonged to
the Michigan tract. 1t was partitioned
and organized at Mineral Point July
4, 1886, into the territory Of Wiscon-
sin. The first legislative body met at
Belmont and there was long struggle
as to where the capitol Of the new
state would be permanently located.
Seventeen towns desired it and each
had inducements to offer. Fond du

Hospital for the insane at Williams
burg, is the only woman physician in
the state and probably in the south
holding responsible official position
under a state government in a profess
sional capacity as a doctor of medi-
cine. DR.. Bullard, who is yet in her
twenties, looks younger than her
years. Her social standing is so high
and her beauty so marked that she
could long since have blossomed into
belle, but she would have none of it.
She has been bookworm from a child,
devouring subjects far beyond her
years. while other girls were yet with
their dolls and their toys.
DR.. Billiard graduated from Wads.
worth high school, Radford, where she
was born and reared, at an early age.
She attended school at Madison,
Wis, afterward taking the profession
al course at Farmville, teaching three
years In the public schools of Pulaski
after her graduation. But the science
of medicine, to which the child had
been attracted, now lured the girl,
and, broadening her studies as her
years advanced, she in time obtained
her degree as doctor of medicine.
TO achieve this end she became
trained nurse, practicing her profess
sion at the bedside of her patients for
several years with great success.
