NEWS OF WISCONSIN
HAPPENINGS OF INTEREST IN
THE VARIOUS TOWNS.
MISSING MAN OWNS FARM
Die Budsberg, Who Disappeared
After Visiting Widow, Was
Well-to-Do Citizen
of lola.

Iola.-Ole Budsberg, who is sup
posed to have been one of the victims
Of Mrs. Bella Guinness of Laporte, Ind,
was well known in this city. He lived
for many years on farm two miles
from lola, and his homestead is still
held by his children. He was about so
years old when he left for Laporte, a
year ago with the intention, it is said,
of renting the farm of Mrs. Guinness.
At that time he had been a widower
for some years. According to the in
formation Budsberg had from $1,000
to $4,000 on his person when he went
to Laporte He deposited about $1,000
in bank there, and he disappeared
completely on the day he drew his
money. The information was received
in this city that he had gone to Chi
cago, having left the home of Mrs.
Guinness. But no trace was ever
found of him. Budsberg was account
ed well to do, and his children here
are in comfortable circumstances.
They have been of the opinion from
the first that their father met with
foul play.

Madison.-One of the interesting
cases tried at the term of circuit court
in Washburn was from Prentice,
Price county, which originated at the
spring election over the license ques-
ton. Under the new law the vote on
the license question must be by the
Australian ballot but it seems that a
good many votes were cast in Prentice
under the old system. As result
Prentice will be dry the coming year,
unless the court holds that the inten-
tion of the voters must be considered
first The election was a warm one.
Counting the votes cast under the old
system and the new, license carries by
a small margin, but counting only
those cast under the Australian sys-
tenn no-l1cense won out. The election
clerks certified to those cast according
to law and not to the others, with the
result that the town went dry. A sa-
loonkeeper secured writ Of GER
tlorari and the proceedings will be
brought before Judge Parrish.

LACE COATS MUCH WORN.
Iona Garments Just Now in the Elk
treme of Fashion.

Worn with the chiffon, batiste,
China silk and handkerchief linen
princess frocks of the more elaborate
sort, as we'll as with foulards, voiles
and tailored linens, are lace coats of
various types, although the longer
ones are at present deemed the more
fashionable. One design much adj
mired for it's graceful lines, is, of
course, meshed lace, appliqued with
white silk scrolls. The fronts and
back hang loosely from the shoulders
and the slashed under-arm seams are
joined together loosely with loops and
chenille-tasseled ends of black velvet
ribbon. A similar bow joins the fronts
at the bust, and in addition to being
collarless, the coat is practically
sleeveless, as only short, loose lace
caps finish the arm-size. Another coat
of white, square mesh net, heavily
darned in bold design, has pointed
sides, curved, gaping fronts, and close
fitting elbow sleeves and is belted to
the figure by means of wide taffeta
band, beginning at the side seams and,
passing LuIOuSu d Sill several IICuS0
from the edge of the fronts, this form
ing a girdle for the gown. A coat
greatly affected by women who go in
for long line effects, is short directly
at the back and front, but has wide
tab sides which reach almost to the
edge of the skirt, and Greek sleeves,
short at the shoulder top and with
long, pointed side ends terminating
with chenille tassels.

SUN BATHS FOR NERVES.
Specialist Tells How Much Good They
Do Suffering Women.

Initiate your cat, madam, and take
a sun bath these spring mornings If
you want to get rid of your nerves.
said a Boston specialist to one OF his
patients recently. See how lazy and
happy pussy looks as he stretches his
body and blinks his eyes in the morn
ing sun. If cats had nerve diseases
this would be the best thing in the
world to cure them.
every sanitarium has it's sun room
now. but women ought not to wait till
they have reached the sanitarium
stage Of breaking down before they in
dulge in anything as cheap as a sun
bath Any woman who has a south
window and an easy chair can have a
sun bath every morning this spring II
she only determines to take it. II the
potatoes have to be peeled, or the
stockings darned, they can be done
during the sun bath, but the best way
of all is to take it just as the cat does,
in the LATEST fashion possible. Run
the shade way up to the sash, move
your chair within range of the sun
light and luxuriate for half an hour.
It's better than gallons of spring medi-
cine, and may save hours and hours
of dullness or staying in bed later on
zone of my patients who had a Sc
we're case of nervous prostration last
spring brought herself out of it after
l had tried every thing, just by chas
ing the sun around the house from
window to window, so that she got
every bit that came in during the day
Indian women have the most placid
nerves of any race of people in the
world, probably, and doctors are be
ginning to think it is because they sit
in the sun so much. An Indian woman
is as fond of the sun outside her wig
wan as the cat is of his favOrite sun
spot They sit in it and vegetate fol
hours at a time, scarcely winking the
eyes.
There's no danger OF women vege
tating these days, so it's quite safe to
advise one to sit in the sun as much
as she can. It's good for her anyway
but especially so if she's nervous"

New Collar Boxes for Travelling.

A new and dainty gift which may
be made at home is collar box, or a
small round pasteboard box about
three inches high covered with denim.
Such an one has been known to have
its foundation in the wooden box
supplied with camembert cheese, but
it may be made of any other box con-
venient. When j. is covered, it is
decorated with designs cut from wall
paper, which are appliqued on the top
and round tie sides. Thus rose
would be pasted ON the top of the box,
leaving the leaves to extend over the
sides and to Irvine gracefully around
the outer edge.

COMPLAINTS ABOUT PAINT.

The time to complain about paint
is before the painter applies it. The
man who puts up the money should
not shirk the responsibility Of choos-
ing the paint. True. the painter
ought to know paint better than the
banker, the professional man or the
merchant. The trouble is, the house
owner too often deliberately bars the
competent and honest painter from
the job by accepting bid which he
ought to know would make an honest
job impossible.
Secure your bids on the basis of
National Lead Companys pure White
Lead and pure Linseed Oil and see
that you get these materials.
No one need be fooled by adulter-
ated white lead. A blowpipe testing
outfit will be mailed to anyone inter-
ested in paint.

LARGE Inheritan ce Tax.

Final settlements of the estates of
Frances G. Newell and Harriet M
Balm will be made by Judge Slosson
at the sitting of the county court at
KenOsha. The estate of Mrs. Newell
is the largest estate ever settled in
Kenosha county and the legal value
placed on the estate was little over
$2,724,000 The executor and the dis
trict attorney came before the court
for the final Adjustment of the in
heritance taxes to be paid by the two
estates into the state and county
treasures and the amount agreed upon
was $71,845.27 for the estate of Mrs
Newell and $14 ,670.49 for the estate of
Mrs. Balm. The total tax paid on the
two estates amounts of $86,515.16 and
of this amount under the present law
the county will receive but $4,325.78,
while more than $4,000 goes into the
general fund of the state. Had this
tax been divided in accordance with
the recommendation made to the legis-
lature by the last meeting of the coun-
ty board the county would have re-
ceived nearly $4,000. 1t was argued
that all of this money had been made
in Kenosha county and for this reason
the county should have the benefit of
the tax assessed against the estate. A
hard fight is to be made before the
next legislature to have the law in
regard to inheritance taxes changed so
that the counties of the state will get
a greater proportion if not more than
half of all the inheritance taxes paid
into the various county treasures in
the future.
