Senator Foraker, of Ohio, the ad- ministration' bitterest opponent in the republican ranks, was one of the first members of that party in Washington to announce his ale glance to Secretary Taft. after the news of the nomination reached him, and when he was informed Of the nomination of Representative Sherman for the vice-presidency, said he thought it was a happy choice. And this is the great se- cret of republican success. said a prominent democrat, the burial of personal animosities for the success of the party. .'

The state of Ohio is making elab- crate preparations to entertain the crack military shots of the United States at the national matches in Au- gust, the more so because it will probably be some years before the matches are again held on that range. There will be almost thousand team members and substitutes in attend ance on the national team match alone, representing almost every state and territory, and all branches of the regular services, together with team from the army in Cuba. There will probably be eight hundred en- tries in the national individual rife match and half as many or more in the national pistol match. In addi- tion therswill be hundreds of marks men who are ineligible for these matches, but who will contest in the matches of the National Rifle associa- tion and the Ohio State Riflea asso- citation, shot during the preceding two weeks. Approximately one hun dred army officers will be detailed to supervise the National matches, to- gether with regiment of regulars to act as markers and scorers. The state has purchased 66 acres of addi- tional ground to the west of the range. which will admit of firing at all ranges from common firing point. The new 1000 yard butt will be 500 feet long, or reinforced con- crete and equipped with telephone connections and buzzers.

y. j Davis then got up and said
II was pity that in city so full
there was no one who wanted a nom
nation for justice OF the peace. He
eulogized that Office as one of dignity,
honor and responsibility. and with 4
speech fun of compliments he sec
onded Coffman's nomination and by
a clever play of rhetoric persuaded
Mr.. Coffman that he was just the man
for the running and the office well
worth while. Mr.. Coffman then said
he agreed with Mr.. Davis about the
Office and permitted his name to go
before the convention. He saidt the
reason he withdrew was because he.
thought he was incompetent to III
the place.
Willard f. Snider then moved that
the nominations be closed and that
Messrs. Duncan and Coffman be cho-
sen by nomination. This went
through with whirl.

for constable by some one in the an-

nominee for school commissioner by
acclamations.
A bitter war OF words took place
among John ]. Davis, osman Swartz'
Charles NJ. Gaylord and others over
the spirit of unfairness, and there was
regular pandemonium TO awhile. a
number jumping to their feet. waving
their arms and making threats. II
was all about the written tickets, the
slate ticket and how to select dele
gates from the 67 in nomination. The
trick attempted was the same as
doomed up in Coal district.
1t was worth miles going to see. w;ts
the affair in the court house, and was
fine exhibition of the lack of har-
mony that exists. Only cooler heads
prevented personal encounter or
two.
The delegates had not been selected
at either place at press time.

(From Wednesdays Daily.)

The following telegram from

of interest to many of the readers of

lows:
'Charles Donovan was arrested here
last night by officers from Jefferson
county, Wis. Two years ago Dono-
van assaulted young girl, it is
alleged, afterwards stealing horse in
his effort to escape. After u thrill =
ling pursuit, he was caught and jailed.
On New Years eve in 1906, while the
sheriff was at watch party, Donovan
broke Jail and freed two others. Since
then every effort to capture him had
proven futile He was tracked to
Atlantic by means of letters written
by his sweetheart in Wisconsin.
The young girl who Figured in the
escapede which landed Donovan in the
Jefferson county Jail, was Elsie
Weichert, girl about fourteen years
OF age. A Mrs. Ida Gruetzmacher,

(From Wednesdays Daily.l

Considering the uDfavorable con
dition of the weather of late. work
Is progr essiug very satisfactorily
on the building of the interurban
line. Ground was broken on Western
avenue yesterday and the work OF
laying rails will be commenced to-
day, the rails having been deposit
ed along that street some days ago.
1t is the intention to complete the
work along Western and Richards
avenues first and then operations Will
commence on Fifth and Main streets
and the work will be pushed just rs
fast as the weather will permit. A
large force of workmen are now en-
gagged in completing the grades outside
the city. 1t may be of particular
Interest to some to know that four
and u half miles of rail have been
laid this side of Oconomowoc and 1t
is expected that the work of laying
the rail this way from that point will
be taken up in about week. The
steel bridge over the Rock river this
side of Oconorowoc has been COM
pleted and the concrete work for the
overhead bridge crossing the g., M.
& st. P. road east of the malt house,
has been finished With the extern
sion of three months time granted. the
franchise calls for the completion
and operation of the line by the
9th of August. Every effort, so the
officials declare, will be made to
have the line completed as early as
possible in order to secure a portion
of the summer business. There is
but little probability that cars will
be in operation by the Fourth o. July.
1t is likely, however, that the Mil
waukee homecomers will enjoy the
pleasure of making the trip from the
cream city for the annual homecom-
ing in August over the nav electric
line.

Her many Watertown frien Dis were
deeply grieved Sunday to learn of the
death Sunday of Mrs. Fred W. Zipfel,
who passed way In the morning at
Milwaukee. The demise occurred at
the Trinity hospital where she under
went an operation nine days before
her death. The shock was felt all
the more for the reason that the
patient appeared to be rapidly i'm
proving after the operation and
buoyant hopes were entertained for
her recovery. During Saturday night,
however, there was change for the
wurse and she sank rapidly into the
sleep which knows no awakening In
this mortal dream.
The deceased was born and reared
in this city. She was born Oct %,
1869. Her maiden name was Emma
Quentmeyer, being daughter of
Mrs. William +. Quentmeyer. In
1889 she was united in marriage. Mrs.
Zipfel possessed wide circle of
friends and was admired by all who
enjoyed her acquaintance, all of whom
extend their heartfelt sympathy to
the bereaved relatives. Mrs. Zipfel
was member of the Mayflower sew =
ing circle, the member of which will
sadly miss the absent one. The re-
mains arrived in the city yesterday
afternoon and were taken to the
family residence. BOT Montgomery
street, from where the funeral will
be held Wednesday afternoon at 200
o'clock to the Oak Hill cemetery.
The deceased is survived by her hus-
band and one daughter, Miss Edna
Zipfel. also by her mother and one
brother, A. g. Quentmeyer of Col
umbus. 1t will be remembered that
sister of Mrs. Zipfel, Mrs. Felix
Mclaughlin passed away about u
month ago.
