To Better Phone Service.

To Better Phone Service.
The railroad commission heard oral
argument on the petition of Attorney
Fred G. Lorenz and others for an order
requiring the Wisconsin Telephone
company to give better service in Mil
waukee than it gave last summer. The
presentation of the argument con-
sumed all day, and when it was fin
ished the Representatives of the petit
TONERS and the company both asked
for permission to file written briefs
later The request was granted 1t
appeared from the argument that the
unsatisfactory condition of the service
last summer was due principally to
the confusion and disturbance arising
from the moving of the central ex-
change and to the scarcity of good
help. The service now, it was con-
ceded, is much better than it was
when the complaint was made, or at
any time in the past Attorney LorenZ
represented himself and other petit
TONERS, and Attorney E. S. Mack rep
resented the telephone company.

500 Arguments Are Ended.

500 Arguments Are Ended.
The supreme court finished hearing
the arguments in the case of the 500
Railway company against the railroad
commission and heard most of the ar
gument in the case of John Bennett
against State Factory Inspector j. E.
Waller. The question involved in the
latter case is the constitutionality of
the new tenement building law passed
by the last legislature. Mayor David
S. Rose of Milwaukee appeared for
Bonnet and Assistant Attorney Gen
eral A. C. Titus for Waller. The only
remaining case to be heard at the pres
ent sitting of the court is that of the
state against the Milwaukee common
council of several years ago, for ex-
tending the franchise of the company
and the right of the state to compel
the officers of the street railway COM
pany to account for all moneys ex-
pended in connection Herewith and to
restore any that was improperly ex-
pended.
Lists Wisconsin Plants.
The Wisconsin Natural History soci-
ETY. has decided to prepare and publish,
as bulletin, list of the flora of this
state, if sufficient cooperation is as
sured from the botanists of the state
to make it complete and of real value.
It is desired to obtain as full records
as possible from every county, that
not only the names of the plants
found shall be given but also their
comparative abundance in the various
localities in which they occur, and
that so far as possible these records
shall be verified by dried specimens of
the several species, especially those
that are rare or Of unusual occur
renee. The society hopes that all Wis
consin botanists, amateurs quite as
well as professionals, will join in max
Ing a success of this undertaking. >
