FEAR NEW CLASS RUSH.
Many Injuries Expected from Interclass
Scrap at Madison Between Fresh
men and Sophomores

MADISON, Wis. Oct 6.-[Special. /
That the bag rush" the renovated
class scrap between the freshmen and
sophomore classes at the University of
Wisconsin which is scheduled to take
place on the lower campus Thursday aft
ernoon, will make the former lake rushes
look like sorority pink teas in the matter
OF broken noses and battered anatomies,
is the prevalent opinion of the university
campus.
The differences between the classes will
be settled On the lower campus. The
freshmen ard sophomores will be pro-
Tlded with twelve sacks apiece stuffed
with hay. The object of the rush is for
each side to get as many Of these sacks
as is possible from the opposing side,
protecting at the same time the sacks
which have been allotted to them at the
beginning of TIE fight. The struggle will
continue for twenty minutes and the side
having the greater number of sacks in
their possession at that time will be de-
clared the winner
There are about 1900 freshmen in col
lege and about half that number of
sophomoreS, and a fracas. the like of
which has never before been witnessed
at Wisconsin is expected. With a whirl-
ing mass of 1000 or more students fight
Ing one another in an enclosure less than
block square there are bound to be

erly pollced by the student cops and

OF western Canada, with its railroad
lines to carry one to almost the utter

Nothing! He might as well be in any

WH!TNALL LOSES CASE
SUPREME COURT DECIDES FOR
POWER COMPANY.
Decision Holds That Southern Wiscon-
sin Power Company May 0bstruct
Waters of Wisconsin River

MADISON, Wis, Oct. 81 Special. /
The decision of the supreme court in the
case Of the Southern Wisconsin Power
company on an appeal by G. B. Whit
nall and others of Milwaukee holds that
the Southern Wisconsin Power company,
which is headed by Magnus Swenson of
the BOARD of university regents, may
maintain its dam at Kilbourn and the
decision goes a great ways in determin-
ing the future water power Development
in this state.
The case involves the right of the
Legislature TO grant a franchise for the
consin river. The condemnation pro-
ceedings were resisted by 9. b. Whit
nall, who owned q small piece of land
bordering on the river, and also by the
Black Hawk Land company, of which
Mr.. Whitnall is president and In which
it is understood certain Milwaukee peo-
pie, including H. A. J. Upham, are in
terested and which was organized about
the time condemnation proceedings were
commenced, and bought up various pieces
of property which were going to be
slaughtered.
These cases were won by the power
company in the court below and were
won In the supreme court.
{. b. Whitnall and the Black Hawk
Land company were represented by
Cary, Upham q Black, Milwaukee at
tOrneys, and the Southern Water Power
company We're represented by Jones <
Schubring.
The decision holds that the Legislature
has absolute power to grant the right
20 construct these dams subject to the
rights OF the United States government
to come in under the commerce clause
of the United States constitution and
take charge of a navigable water with
in the state of Wisconsin.

vested and it is now safe to speak Of
results. Throughout the entire grain
growing area of 100000 square miles
there has been a uniform production
and high average. Careful estimates
place the yield of spring wheat at 50
bushels per acre, winter wheat at over
40 bushels and oats exceed so bushels
per acre. Barley also has proved an
abundant yield. What will attract the
reading public more than volumes of
figures will be the fact that those who
have been induced through the influ-
ence of the Government to accept of
16O acres of free grant land, or, by the
persuasion of friends to leave their
home State of Dakota, Minnesota,
Iowa, Illinois, Michigan Indiana, Ohio,
Nebra ska or the other States from
which people have gone, have done
Well Financially, they are in better
position than many of them ever eX-
pected to be, and in the matter of
health, in social conditions, they have
lost nothing.
The columns of Canadian newspa-
pers are filled with accounts of this
years harvest, writer's vying with each
otner IN giving the proper cOloring to
their reports. These make exhilarating
reading to the man who has interests
in that country. Lethbridge people
claim it to be the keystone of Southern
Alberta, while Calgary people claim
the same for their district. 1t was in
this district that the growing of win
ter wheat in western CANADA originat-
ed. It's success there led the farmers
east and west of it to experiment and
what can now be said of one part may
well be said of the whole. In a few
years from now these great plains over
whose breadth for years roved hun
dreds of thousands of heads of cattle
following the millions of buffalo that
once grazed their grasses, will be a
solid grain field covering a territory of
over 10000 square miles, and very lit

tic views regarding the Canadian rail-
roads and lands, but his trip has con-
WINGED him, not only of the soundn ess
of his views, but it also has established
the conviction that the great expan-
sion of the next few years will be in
Canada's western areas. 81 have never
seen such wheat" said he.
1t takes an army Of men to handle
the Western Canada crop, and it is
estimated that 10000 people have been
brought in this year to assist in the
great undertaking; there being excur-
sions from the outside world nearly
every day for the past six weeks.
In this article no attention has been
given to the growth of fax which has
had great attention paid to it in some
districts. 1t is safe to say that in addi-
ton to the 120 million bushels of
wheat, the 10 million bushels of oats
and the 80 million bushels of barley,
there will be over two million bushels
of fax. The approximate value of all
these crops may safely be put at One
Hundred and Sixty Million Dollars, as
against a total of 118 million dollars
in 1908.

HOPES TO BE RELEASED ON BAIL

MARQUETTE, Mich, Oct. 5.-[Spe-
cial. lit was a surprising find that was
made by officers at the Marquette prison
when they got through searching John
Adams, alias DR.. Anton j. Wiechers.
Three 500 gold certificates were found.
So cleverly were two of the notes hidden
that it is remarkable that they were
ever found.
Adams was employed handling lumber
at the prison box factory, having been
sent up from Detroit last March. One
of the officers considered Adams behav-
ior suspicious and thought it advisable to
have his clothes searched. When one of
his stockings was pulled off there fell
out a scrap of paper which proved to
contain a 500 gold certificate.
Adams was supplied with a new outfit
of clothes. Then he asked for his eye
glasses, which had been taken from him
when he was searched. He was offered
the glasses, but insisted on also having
the case. He was SO solicitous about
getting the case that it was examined
carefully, and two more 100 gold GER
thcatcs were found securely pasted I'M
der the velvet lining
Glued Under Lining.
The certificates had been glued to-
gether and then had been securely glued
under the lining, so that only the closest
examination could reveal anything un-
usual about the case.
The money was turned over to the
prison boOkkeeper and placed to Ad-
ans credit. 1t is supposed he kept it on
his person with the idea of having it
IN case he might make his escape The
discovery of the notes is made the more
interesting by Adams story that the of
tlcers burned up certificate of deposit
tor $500, running in his favor.
Adams claims that he had it secreted
IN an old shoe, one of a wornout pair
that was thrown to one side in his cell.
The officers gathered up these shoes and
burned them as worthless, and if Adj
ans is telling the truth his certificate
helped to make smoke. In view of the
fact that $500 in currency was uncov-
cred on his person the officers are in
clined to believe this other recital.
Expects to Get Bail.
Adams. who is a man Of about fifty
years, expects to be released under $40
600 bail. The supreme court has held
that he may be released on bail for this
amount, and Adams expects that bonds
men will be forthcoming. His sister,
residing in Milwaukee, is said to be we'll
enough off to be able to come to his
assistance.
Adams was given from two and one
half to five years, with the maximum
recommended, by Judge Connolly at De
troit, the charge against him having
been decelvlng a young girl with a fake
marriage license He inserted an adj
vertisement in a Cincinnati paper that
was answered by one Rose HEINZ, whom
he is alleged to have deceived and vic
timiZed.
Adams 5 suspected of having figured
in similar escapades. He is said to have
made much money when at liberty as a
medicine fakir, and Diamond Kid was
one of his Soubriuuets.

from $40 to $50 per acre. Already the
homestead and pre- emption lands are
being well filled.
In the district of Calgary and in Cen
trail Alberta, since the report of a year
ago was made, the increased acreage
in crop has been remarkable. The new
ly-arrived settler has got to work and
with the steam pillow and ordinary
methods of farming large amount of
new land is contributing to the wealth
of the country. Railroads have pro-
jected and built branches which reach
out laterally from the main line, and
it is now possible to reach parts rich
in agricultural possibilities that were
not accessible year ago. Towns have
come into existence during that time
that will soon become cities; schools
and churches have been erected
throughout the country districts; tele-
phone lines have been constructed, and
an air of prosperity is everywhere ap
parent. There are to be found those
who speak of a pioneering" life in
western Canada, but as one man said,
eff this is pioneering I don't for the
life Of me see what our forefathers had

WAGNER LOSES SUIT
AGAINST A. H. DAHL
kee Man Dismissed from State
Treasurer's Office.

MADISON, Wis, Oct 5.-[Special ]
-Adolph III. Wagner of Milwaukee can
not recover from the state for his dis
missal from the state treasIrer's office,
according to a decision handed down by
the state supreme court today.
Wagner was an employe in the state
treasures office here and was suspended
on charges of incompetency by the head
of the office. He carried the case to
the circuit court of Dane county, where
the contention of State Treasurer An
drew III. Dahl that Wagner was incom-
petent was upheld by jury. This case
was carried to the supreme court, which
upheld the lower court.
Joseph Ruth, cashier of the State
Bank of Arcadia, who was found guilty
of making false entries in the books of
the bank, lost in his appeal to the su-
preme court. When Ruth was tried, the
jury disregarded two other counts in the
complaint and Ruth appealed on the
ground that the state could not separate
the counts. The decision of the lower
court was affirmed.

seem reflection on the intelligence OF
the reading public to repeat it. 1t is
not proposed to do so. Its Topographic
cal characteristics are divergent There
is the level prairie with it's rich deep
loan and underlying subsoil, the high
er and rolling lands with their groves
of timber, the wooded lands rich in
soil. The wants of all can be supplied;
some want one kind and some another
and they can all be suited. The man
who wants to put in his steam plow
and force the energies of the soil into
immediate production can be suited,
and so can the man who wishes large
tracts for the same purposes, and at
the same time enjoy the companion
ship of the timber. In many parts 1t
is possible to have a hundred mile
square of wheat, without a break.
writer says: 1--WE were driven west and
north of Moose Jaw through 20 miles
of dead ripe wheat, acres of stocks and
we'll worked SUMNER allows. One OF
these fields would yield 40 bushels to
the acre, and another man had oats
that would yield 90 or 100 bushels to
the acre. In this district wheat will
tions were never better and through
out the district the people are assured
of a most prosperous year" In the
Melfort district, three hundred miles
in another direction, we hear of a far
mer whose yield of oats will run from
So to 100 bushels per acre; then trav-
cling over another stretch of three
hundred miles the Pipestone district in
Manitoba is reached and we learn of
more 80 and 40 bushels to the acre
crops of wheat. So it will be seen that
the splendid crops are not confined to
one district, but are general throughout
the entire country.
