FIGHTS WITH BIG LYNX.
Washburn Rabbit Hunter Has Exciting
Encounter with Wounded and Ra-
venous Wild Beast.

WASHBURN. Wis, Jan. 13-[Spe-
,ial. while hunting rabbits in the
western part of Bayfield, county Henry
Kitzrow. a resident of the town of Iron
River. had an experience with a man.
moth lynx which he will remember. Mr..
Kitzrow was carrying a double barreled
shotgun and had dog with him. His
attention was attracted by a commotion
n the brush and the dog came running,
followed by mammoth lynx.
AS soon as Kitzrow discovered what
vas the matter he fired a charge of shot,
out the range proved too great and the
charge was only sufficient to enrage the
Dig ugly brute, and Immediately he left
off pursuit of the dog and attacked the
lunter.
After a short struggle Kitzrow sue
2eeded in discharging the other barrel
which brought the lynx to earth. The
animal was one of the largest that has
ever been killed in this part of the state.
Owing to the lack of snow. lynx, wild
eats and wolves have been having
hard time to provide themselves with
food with the result that in their half
starved condition they have become uu-
Usually bold.

RANGE PROJECT is DEAD.
Government Refuses to Buy Land When
Prices Go Up.

SPARTA, Wis, Jan. 13.-[SpeciaLl j
Wisconsin will probably not be able to
secure the appropriation for an artillery
range which was to have been located in
the western part of the state. Some two
years ago Congress made an appropria-
ton to buy the land in the vicinity of
Camp Douglas, after which some of the
land owners raised prices to such an ex-
tent that the government refused to pur-
chase.
! The war department sent board of
army officers to examine a site near
Sparta and that report, which has just
been made public, is favorable. Congress
man John J. Esch, who has worked
for the past five years to secure an ar
tillery range for Wisconsin, made it
plain just before his return to Washing
ton that nothing could be done unless
the land owners would agree that the
land could be purchased at a reasonable
price, should the proper legislation be
enacted.

WRECKS SALOON FRONT
PETER BECKER BREAKS WINDOWS
WITH BEER BOTTLES.
Taken to Jail, Where He Explains That
He Had Grudge Against His En-
ployer-Now Satisfied.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Jan. Il, 1901
A grudge against his employer, Peter
Becker, keeper of a saloon at 500 East
Water street, prompted Bert Howard,
the night bartender, to take peculiar re
venge this morning. Loading his arms
with empty beer bottles after the day
bartender had taken charge of the sa-
loon, Howard took his station in front
of the building, which is just north Of
the city hall, and it is alleged, hurled bot
tie after bottle with unerring aim
through the plate glass windows of the
'front.'
Hearing the crash of glass, the day
bartender advanced to see who was MAX
ing all the noise, but ducked his head
when the second bottle almost grazed his
scalp. He wisely retreated into the rear
room and watched the destruction. When
all was quiet, he advanced again to see
who had so little respect for law and or
der, only to have to dodge a second
fusilade of bottles. -Four times did the
wrathy Howard send in a cannonade
until the destruction of the windows in
the front" was complete. Then he
quietly wended his way homeward.
Becker was notified of the havoc
wrought by his wrathy mixer" and
proceeding to the office of John WolIer,
clerk of the municipal court secured a
warrant for Howard, which was served
shortly before noon. Howard was placed
under arrest on a charge of maiiciously
destroying property.
Howard promises to secure a warrant
against Becker charging assault and bat
terry when the present matter has been
threshed out.

RAIL BOARD DECISIONS
COMMISSION TAKES UP SMALL
CASES ON CALENDAR.
Cut Is Made on Rate for Saw Logs
Shipped to Vicinity of Bur

MADISON, Wis, Jan. 14.-[Special.l
The railroad commission took up its
calendar this morning for changes in
service and rates of the different rail
roads.
The complaint of W. G. Tabor against
the Wisconsin Central road for the es-
tablishing of telephone service in the
office, was settled, the railway company
giving in.
The complaint of the Burlington Adj
vancement association against the same
road was settled, a charge being made
on the saw log rates to the several sec
tons in the Burlington vicinity.
The complaint of the Cook & Brown
Lime company of Oshkosh, asking a re-
fund of about SO for overcharge ON
freight was taken under adyisement.
The matter of stopping interurban
cars of the Milwaukee Electric & Light
company near the premises of w. f.
Scheckler of Caledonia Racine county,
was heard. Scheckler says the CArs were
stopped for other persons but that the
company or its motormen refuse to stop
for him, but compelled him to get off
cars near what he declared was a dis
reputable resort. This, he says, was
discriminatory and annoying. The Off
Gals of the traction company entered
general denial and said that it would be
discriminatory for them to stop cars in
front of his residence.

STORM RACES IN STATE.
Blizzard Sweeps Wide Area, Gripping
Transportation Facilities.

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, Jan. IS, 1907.
A raging blizzard, the most severe
known in Wisconsin in the last fifteen
years, has held the state in it's grip since
about midnight Saturday night and the
damage to transportation, telegraph and
telephone facilities can not be estimated.
Dispatches from nearly every city in the
state tell of the severity of the storm,
the wind in most places reaching a We
locity of fifty miles an hour and the
snow drifting to 4 and feet in depth.
There has been but intermittent serv-
ice north on the iuterurban system of
the Milwaukee Electric Railway and
Light company since IL o'clock yester-
day morning and many of the cars of
the company have been derailed. All
traffic between Racine and Kenosha has
been suspended.
All trains on the Chicago, Milwaukee
& st. Paul and on the Chicago & North
Western railroads have been kept run
ming, but are hours late. The Chicago
& Milwaukee Electric railway officials
say that they have kept their cars run
ming with but slight delay. County
roads all over Wisconsin are so blocked
that traffic will be impeded for days
and farmers are practically snowbound
ed and the Goodrich and Barry boats
have all made their respective ports.
Six inches of snow fell at Madison,
which was piled by the wind into huge
drifts. Railroad trains, street cars and
other traffic were all impeded and tele-
phone and telegraph communication
were cut off.
night, as the high wind had brought
every electric light wire to the ground.
All street car service was abandoned.
terrific gale from the northeast held
Oshkosh. Appleton, Neenah, Menasha
and kaukauna and the rest of the Fox
river valley region in it's power all day
Yesterday. There was no telephone or
telegraph communication between any
of the towns, although situated in close
proximity to each other.
There was fast gale at Manitowoc
but the Pere Marquette carferries made
their usual trips, although much behind
time. The ice in the river was piled
high. There were grave apprehensions
for the safety of the new government
pier. erected at cost Of $75, 900.
There was no suffering, however, at
Green Bay and La Crosse. Dispatches
from those cities state that there was
high wind only at Green Bay and fair
skies at La Crosse.
Edward Warren, the assistant light
house keeper at Manitowoc, had a har-
rowing experience while on duty at the
fog station on the breakwater yesterday.
The seas were running high, carrying
away Warren's boat and tearing away
the steps leading to the signaling station
and for a time the station itself was in
danger of being swept away. The water
flooded the floors and quenched the fires
in the boilers. 1t was impossible to get
boat to the breakwater near enough to
rescue Warren from his dangerous posi-
ton.
He remained at the station all day and
late into the night and was finally taken
off by a tug.

HAS A MURDER THEORY
SON OF CHARLES MAX BELIEVES
THAT THUGS KILLED HIM.
Body Was Badly Bruised and the Pock-
cts in the Clothes Were Turned
Inside Out.

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, Jan. Il, 1901
Advancing the theory that his father
was murdered by thugs for his money
and his body thrown into the river, Rob
ert Max, son of Charles Max, whose
body was found floating in the lake Sun
day by Capt Ingar Olson, desires an in
vestigation.
A long cash in the head, one arm brok-
en-, bruised knuckles and many other
marks of violence, together with the fact
that no money was found in the cloth
ing, and that the pockets were turned in
side out is what Mr.. MaX's conclusions
are based upon. The body was found
without a coat, vest or overcoat.
Charles Max was foreman of linemen
of the Chicago & Milwaukee Telegraph
company, and had been employed Oy the
company for twenty-eight years. He is
well known in the city and has many In
fluentiai friends. He was known to be
home man, and seldom cared for COM
not drinking man. Max was last heard
of at South Milwaukee, where he went
November 10 on business. He is believed
to have carried at least 500 with him at
the time. The body was found Sunday,
floating among icefoes, and was not
identified until Monday afternoon when
the son called at the morgue.
Max was 45 years old, and is sur
vived by widow and FIVE children. Two
daughters are employed by the Wiscon-
sin Telephone company, one son is a
plumber, another is machinist and the
youngest lives at home.
Deputy Coroner Frank Luehring be
lieves that the marks upon the body are
only those ordinarily inflicted by steam
ers and docks, among which the body
may have f1oated and thus becomes bad
ly battered The funeral will be held
Wednesday morning at o'clock from
the undertaking rooms of William Z.
Feerick, 1880 Cherry street. Services
will be held at st. Aquinas church, Thir-
ty-ffth and Brown streets, and interment
will be at Calvary cemetery.

DOES IT PAY TO BE A LAWYER?
Hardly, if Half Those Who Practice
Earn Only $1,000 a Year.

In the United States today there are
over 1866 lawyers-more than in any
other profession or calling save teach
ing and medicine In addition to this
number there are thousands of young
men i'll law offices and colleges educating
themselves for the lava mighty army
of legal representatives fighting and
preparing to fight the battles of life
In one city alone there are over TO-
GOO lawyers, three-fourths of whom are
wholly dependent upon the incomes from
tfler practice as a means OF livelihood.
While from 80 to so per cent. are sue
cessful practitioners. with good incomes
and monopoly upon the better class of
law bushes sit is safe to say that the
remaining so per cent. make on an aver
age less than $1,000 a year.
In many law offices in our larger cities
you will find half dozen or more law
yers occupying merely clerical positions
and working for others, like insignificant
cog-wheels in a mighty machine, on sal
aries of from SIS to $25 a week, and
who congratulate themselves that they
are able to hold their positions.
a mOtOrman on a street car receives
from SIS to $40 a week for his services,
and he is sure of his money. A clerk in
a dry good store, a railroad or insur-
ance office receives from $40 to S25 a
week.
A bank clerk is paid from $75 to $3.50
a month A skillful mechanic or machin-
list earns from So to $40 a day.
Many business men command salaries
of from $4,000 to $4,000 a year. A
travelling salesman sells goods on com
mission and earns from $1,000 to $4,000
a year and perhaps more. A reporter
on a daily newspaper makes more money
than the average lawyer.
What does it mean? Wake up, young
lawyer, wake up! In the face of these
conditions is it not time that you were
asking yourself the question. Does it
pay to practice law?-Ohio Magazine.

STUDENT KILLED BY ICEBOAT.
Frank Purdy, University Freshman, Dies
of Injury at Madison.

MADISON, Wis, Jan. 13.-While
skating on Lake Mendoza Saturday af-
ternoon, Frank Purdy, freshman stu
dent in the short agricultural course Of
the University of Wisconsin, was run
down by an iceboat and was so badly
injured that he died. Purdy is son

young man are in Chicago, and have
been notified of his death.
Purdy was picked up by, his fellow
sturents Immediately after the accident,
and carried unconscious to his room.
Drs. w. H. Sheldon and George Keenan,

young man back to consciousness just
before he died. Internal hemorrhage
was the cause of death.
Coroner NJ. w. Lynch said last night
after an investigation and conference
with the mother of Frank Purdy, that
no jury would be called to place the
blame. The mother does not wish to
take steps against the occupants of the
iceboat, believing that the unfortunate
occurrence was purely accidental.

RESTORING TURQUoIsEs.
Nature in Some Cases, Oil in Others,
Changes the Blue to Green.

''There is need of Il sure method of
restoring to turquoises their original
color" said a gem expert. ''TurqUoises
are said to become green by age. but it
is more probable that the green color is
due to grease which accumulates on
them.
They are very porous and are readily
impregnated by liquids. When green
spots appear and they have not pene-
trated far into the stone, the color can
sometimes be restored by allowing the
turquoise to remain in q solution OF
equal parts of alcohol and ammonia, or
embedding it for a time in fullers earth
moistened with alcohol or water.
Petroleum ether is also a good dis
solver of oil and grease spots. If the
grease or oil has penetrated far into the
stone it is useless to attempt to remove
ii, as it would only crack or whiten the
stone.
sometimes the change in color re-
suits from a natural cause and hence
this beautiful gem cannot be guaranteed,
although the owners of the American
mines always replace any stones that
change color within six months.
In a coronation chair in the Kremlin
in Moscow are several old turquoises
some of which possess a beautiful shade
Of blue, while others have turned to
green.''-New York Sun.
