Only $40 For Place On The two
Tickets.

. Candidates for county office need on
ly pay $40 filing fee, not 800, to have
their names placed upon the primary
ticket, and having paid the fee to file
for the primary election, they need pay
no further sum to have their names
placed upon the general ballot. An
opinion to this effect was issued Friday
by George I. Simpson, assistant at
t0rney general.
The dealing with the filing of can.
didates in primary elections is am.
biguous because of 1907 amendment to
law Of 1905, and many Of the candidates
for salarled county offices have suppos.
ed because of the peculiar wording of
the amendment that they would be O.
bliged to pay filing fee Of $50 in the
primary election Of 4 filing fee of &10
in the primary election and further
fee Of $40 in the general election.

In the course of his address at the

University Wednesday, { President
Schurman said "Cornell university,
as the land grant under college Of Che
state Of New York, is under obligations
to bring the results of science to the
help of the farmer, the artisan and in

able function. l trust the time is not
remote when it may make a new de-

rural districts, and Of trade schools for
our villages and cites. What the un-
iversity has done, needs to be done in
a hundred places under the guidance
and stimulus of the university.
"Boys and girls need to be educated
in terms OF their environment and in.

is too long for the majority; but a
training for work on the farms and in

A Day AT The Circus.

The very thought of it thrills you!
What memories, what anticjpations,
what promises Of pleasure it brings!.
Ask man the character of the first
show that his youthful eyes ever abb.
sorbed with innocent delight, and he
will say with unhes5t Eating candor, "the
circus" Ask hey what the future
holds for him in the way Of promised
pleasure, and Immediately the circus
looms up big and dazzling in his imag-
ination.
And it isn't strange that it should be
so. The world famed Gentry Bros.

day June 29, is travelling university

and amusing, MONKEYS, matches IN
mimicry, pet pigs, fun promoting goats,
and more than hundred ponies that
please the little ones, because they are

there be any doubt to the fact that
nine tenths of the children Of the Uni

Of animal educat o., monkeys, dogs

Preventing Pear Blight.

Preventing Pear Blight.
Twig and leaf blight will make its
appearance soon after leafing out be-
gins. For leaf blight, which is caused
by fungus and is readily detected by
the small, round, dark-colored spots on
the leaf, nothing is better than spray
ing with bordeaux misture. It gives
satisfaction also in twig blight, but
should be used several times in the
season. For fire or malignant blight
the best remedy is to burn the tree as
soon as discovered, for it is only a
matter of a few days till it will be

late court has knocked out That aD-
surd and extortionate allowance OF
$4,000 each for the three receivers Of
a big Trust company that recently
failed and also $4,000 apiece for the
lawyers that had hand IN the bust.
n9sr These fees we're all reduced to
$4,000 and this was bigger than any
one of 'em could have earned at real
work for ten years. The court beaut-
fully says of the $4,000 fees that the
amount charged was so "grossly!exces-
sive as to be equivalent to spoliation
of the assets Of the company" and
that's the straight truth of it. The
idee that insolvency cases are allowed
to be the means of robbery and extor-
ton on the part of lawyers and receiv-
ers and agents and adjusters and SO
that there is pretty certain to be moth
in left of the assets for the sutferin
creditors has gone too fur in lots Of
cases and Pm glad the courts have
commenced to cut out some of 'em.
There's no reason why reasonable fees
and charges shouldn't alwus go in
such hard luck cases.

HAD HAIR RAISING ESCAPE
KenosEa Boy Thrown Between Bumpers
While Stealing a Ride to Racine

Reports from Racine state that Ed
ward humphrey, a Kenosha boy, had
hair raising escape from death there
on Tuesday afternoon when he fell be-
tween the bumpers Of two cars near
the Northwestern station. His clothing
was fairly torn from his body. A po-
lice officer happened to be near the
scene Of the accident and saw Dump
hrey fall. He managed to pull him out
from under the train before he was
crushed. The rain was moving at a
snalls pace or the boy would have I'M
|doubtedly been ground to bits under
the wheels. The boy had presence of
mind enough to keep out of the way of
the wheels until the policeman got the
train stopped and rescued him from his
|perilous position. He was sent back
to Kenosha Tuesday night on an cleo
trio car and it is probable that it will
be some time before he tries the freight
train as a way to get to Racine.

HIT BY FAST TRAIN
Unknown Man is Found Terribly
Wounded Along the st Paul
Road at TruesdeII
INJURED MAN FROM CHICAGO
Man May Have Been Laying in the
Ditch for Hours Before He
Was Found Injuries Said
to Be Fatal
INJURED MAN FROM CHICAGO

An unknown man, terribly injured
by being struck by a train, was picked
up in a ditch along the tracks of the
Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul road
near the village of Truesdell at half
past four O. clock Tuesday and taken
to St. Mary's Hospital in Racine. It
is thought possible that the man is
Jack Mccoy of Chicago, as he had
cards in his pocket bearing this name.
He was not known to any of the people
about the Truesdell station nor to any
of the members Of the crew which pick
ed him up. The man was unconscious
when found and was bleeding from half
dozen wounds in different parts of
the body.
When the badly wounded man was
found he was picked up and placed in
a caboose and taken to Corliss and
when he failed to regain consciousness
he was removed to st. Mary's Hospital
in Racine.
Two physicians were called to attend
the man and their examination revealed
a fracture of the skull two inches in
length. One ankle and one arm were
also badly bruised, but none of the
bones was broken. There was not a
scrap of paper on the man to indicate
his identity save the card bearing the
name "Jack- Mccoy" The man was
well and neatly dressed and on the
lapel of his coat he wore a small button
bearing . photograph of little girl.
His hands would indicate that he was
a machinist by trade. He appears to
be 40 years of age.
When the man was taken to Corliss
efforts were made to revive him and
he regained consciousness. At that
time he mentioned the name of Jack
Mccoy and the address 226 South
Peoria street. At the same time he
mentioned several other names and it
is thought possible that the names
were names of relatives Of the injured
man.
The officials Of the railway company
seem to be Of the opinion that the man
was attempting to steal a ride when
he lost his footing and fell under the
wheels. 1t is rather unusual that no
report has been made to the Offices of
the company in regard to the accident.
County Agent Hensgen returned from
Racine this afternoon and the man was
Still alive. It has been discovered that
the injured man is Frank Mccoy and
he is a brother of the owner and pro-
prietor Of McCoy.'s European Hotel Of
Chicago. The brother Of the injured
man will go to Racine some time this
evening and arrange to have his broth
er properly cared for. Mccoy is said
to have been well known in Chicago
and his brother could not explain how
he happened to be at Truesdell at the
time Oh the accident.
