However, if an owner gets new

In the barns mentioned, especial at
tention has been given to proper ven
tilation, a subject in which the Elk
Governor has been a pioneer worker
and which the Wisconsin Anti-Tuber-
culosis people are urging upon the
farmers throughout the state.
In his lecture following this intro
duction, DR.. Brown corroborated the
previous statement and said that the
closed windows Of sleeping rooms and
factories during the winter contributed
directly to the enormous death rate
from tuberculosis. He declared that
the superstitious fear which people
have of night air and cold air ought
to be transferred to the closed room
which should be feared as 1T is often
veritable tuberculosis nest.

FOUND ACCIDENTAL DEATH
Coroner's Inquest Fails to Bring Out
Any New Details

The coroner S inquest over the re-
mains OF the late John Sheridan, who
was killed by train on the western
division of the Northwestern road on
last Saturday evening held at the Mil
Ter and Cosgrove morgue on Monday
afternoon failed to bring out any new
details In regard to the manner in
which Sheridan met his death. The
members of the train crew as well as
the friends of Sheridan who had start
ed with him to the lakes were the
chief witnesses at the inquest, but
none OF them had seen the man fall
and they knew nothing of the accident.
Sheridan was missed from the train at
Balm but no search for him was made
until Genoa Junction was reached when
a telegram informed the crew that he
had been killed. It was shown that
the three men, of which Sheridan was
one, had been riding on the top Of a
box car and Sheridan had left the
party to get into an open car. It is
thought that in getting into the door
of the car he slipped and fell through
between the cars and was cut to pieces.
The funeral Of the unfortunate man
was held from st. James church this
morning and interment was at the
family plat in st. James cemetery.
The Northwestern Railway Company
has already made satisfactory settle
ment with the relatives Of the dead
man.
