FINED FOR SH0P-LlFTING;
ATTEMPTS SUICIDE.

Mrs. Caroline Singleman, south side
resident, was caught in the act OF ap
propriating goods without going through
the formality of purchasing them in
Schuette Bros. store on Tuesday after
noon and on being brought before Judge
Schmidt in municipal court plead guilty
at once. She stated that she had no
reason to give for her action. The judge
imposed fine of $40 and costs, amount
ing in all to S4.
Less than two months ago Mrs. Single,
man was brought before the court on a
charge of stealing flowers at the ceme-
terry, and plead guilty to the charge.
After being fined on Tuesday she
went to drugstore and purchased a
quantity of carbolic acid, but on her ar
rival at home this was taken from her
by her daughter. Later in the day she
soaked some match heads in water and
drank the solution, and as result of
this, is now critically i'll.
1t is thought that her mind has be-
come partially unbalanced from brood
ing over the death of son who lost his
life some time ago in the Philippine Is
lands.

GOODRICH COMPANY MAY LEAVE.

Rumors of the moving of the Good.
rich Transit company's shops from this
city to Muskegon, Michigan, which
have been current for some time recev-
ed the stamp of authority made by of
ficers of the company during the past
week. AS soon as the news became
known here steps were taken to induce
the company to keep the industry here
and committee was appointed to con
fer with the officials to learn their rea.
sons for the change 1t is stated that
the company has not sufficient dock
room for its increasing needs and that
the improvements being made and in
contemplation by the Manitowoc Dry
Dock company, will crowd the Goodrich
works so that operation will be difficult.
tits not known just what proposition will
be advanced to counteract this difficulty
but every reasonable effort will be made
to keep the shops here.
The company give steady work to a
large number of employees, the most of
whom receive good wages, and the con-
templated removal would be a serious
blow to the industrial intrests of the
city.
Since the conference of the committee
with the officials of the company, the
latter have stated that the shops will
remain here if u suitable location can
be furnished for them.

One of the state courts of the state of
Washington has just affirmed a judg.
ment In favor of Mrs. II. Zech. former
ly of Crivitz in this state, for S25, 600
against Mary Timm, formerly OF Mil
waukee. The suit was brought by Mrs.
Iech for alienation of the affections of
her husband, Heronomous Zech. who
will be remembered az one of the liti,
gants in suit tried here few years ago
against Theodore Kersten, former presi
dent of the Chiffon Bank. Miss Timm
had been Zech's stenographer and it was
alleged that he had become infatuated
with her and followed her to Washing
ton, after closing his Milwaukee office.
There, i: is charged Ielh lived with the
woman and spent large sums of money
on her. 1t was because of his residence
in the west that the suit was tried there.

new NURSERY INSPECTION LAW.

A new law has just been passed which
will be Of interest both to nursarymen
and to persons having nursery stock,
1t provides for uniform inspection by
the Agricultural Experiment Station of
the State university of all nurseries
growing and offering stock for sale in
the state, such inspection being for the
purpose of determining whether or not
the nurseries are free from dangerous
fungus ana insect pests. In the past
this has been optional with the nursery
men hut hereafter all nurseries must he
inspected. Parties who are growing
plants for sale, other than greenhouse
plants, should make application at once
for inspection to j. q. Moore, Inspector,
Experiment Station, Madison, Wis.
If the inspection is done during the
regular inspection season the cost will
be much less than when done out of
season. All nurserymen should give
this matter their immediate attention.

HOLDS BARGAIN ILLEGAL.

In ruling handed down last week
Judge Kirwan holds that a contract made
on Sunday is void. The question arose
in an action appealed from n Justice
court the basis of which was a bargain
made between Ignatz Pankratz and John
f. Engelbrecht whereby Pankratz agreed
to sell Engelbrecht "A house and lot for
$1,000. Engelbrechi paid 5000 down
and later turned over horse and bug.
Ky as part of the purchase price. Some
time after he sought to rescind the con
tract and brought suit against Pankratz
for the return of the horse, buggy and
money. The decision orders the return
of the first two articles but denies his
right to the $1,000, it having been paid
over on Sunday.

RUST NOT GREEN
BUG AFFECTS CROP.

According to professor Moore, head of
the agricultural bureau of the college of
agriculture of the state university, the
trouble with the oats and barely crops is
due to rust and not to the green bug.
The damage to these crops in this and
neighboring counties is reported to be
quite large and at first was attributed to
the green bug which has been ravaging
in Minnesota, Iowa and Illinois. Mr..
Moore states that from information re-
ceived by his bureau the crop will be be-
low the average. The following is an
extract from Prof. Moore's letter:
Practically all damage done may be
attributed to oat rust, found on all the
plants. Reddish brown blotches appear
on the leaves of the plant somewhat
elongated, which later turned dark
brown. In nearly all cases the leaves
turn brown at the end and die back to
the stool This is because the rust takes
ND the nourishment which would nat.
urally go to the tissues, and they starve
and turn brown. While most farmers
are acquainted with rust, they have
overlooked it as the cause of the present
trouble because it appeared so much
earlier than usual. Prevailing weather
conditions have been exceptionally favor
able for the development and spread of
fungus, and at the same time have re-
tarded the growth and weakened the
plants 80 as TO make them more suscepti-
BILE to attack. 1t is impossible to predict
how seriously the oat crop will be af
fected. There is no way of combating
the disease, and the farmers can do moth
ing but watch weather condition until
harvest. The indications are that the
crop throughout the state will be very
light, as practically the whole state is
affected, the south and east more than
the north and west.
