THREE DROWN TO
SAVE THREE CENTS

Pittsburg, May 13.-To save FIVE
cents bridge toll, FIVE foreigners, who
had been out of work for many
months, attempted to cross the Monon-
gahelia river at McKeesport, a sub
urb, yesterday, in small boat, which
sank as they got into midstream,
drowning three OF the men. Five hun
dred school children who were enjoy
ing their first days diversion in new
playground saw them drown.
Expecting to End work at Glassport,
the men with but few cents in their
pockets found an old boat which had
been washed ashore and rather than
spend one cent each from their scanty
hoard, they entered the boat. They
were within % yards of the farther
shore when the boat shipped water
and sank.

STATE AID FOR
COUNTY FAIRS
SUBJECT PROVIDES INTEREST
ING HEARING BEFORE COM
MITTEE,

Officers and stockholders of the La
Crosse interstate fair and the north
efn Wisconsin fair at Chippewa Falls
swooped down upon the assembly
COMMITTEES on agriculture yesterday
afternoon to head off an amendment
to fair appropriation IN which, it
was claimed, would put the'e two big
fairs out OF business.
The bills under consideration were
the Kuis bill increasing the state aid
for county fairs from 81, 700 10 $4,000
per year, and the Ingram bill provid-
ing that the amount of state aid FOR
all fair associations in the state be
increased from 40 to so per cent. OF
the gross premiums paid out, provid-
ing the fairs disburse not more than
twoafths of the amount tor racing
purses or for other special contests.
While the Kull bill designates that
the amount of state aid for both the
Chippewa Falls and La Crosse fairs
shall remain at $4,000 and there is
nothing In this bill or the Ingram
measure which would reduce the
amount. the fair officials learned that
the committee had practically agreed
upon an amendment to the Ingram
bill to put the two big fairs on the
same basis as the county fairs of the
state, and thus reduce the amount OF
their state aid more than one-half
Strons. arguments against the pro
posed amendment were made by fair
officials. Among those who appeared
before the committee against the new
proposition were A. G. Cox Osseo,
president. and Robert p. Clark, sec
rotary Of the Chippewa Falls fair;
Roy Wilcox Eau Claire; Frank Buzz

treasurer. and c. s. Van AuKen. sec

STRANGE To NAME
FOUR COMMITTEES
SENATE REFUSES TO SUBMIT
CHOICE OF RECESS BODIES TO
CAUCUS ARRANGEMENT.
SOME FEELING DISCLOSED IN
DISCUSSION OF DONALD
RESOLUTION.
Madison, MAJ 10.

Mduls' H. MAY 10.
The Donald resolution taking the
naming of the senate numbers of the
special recess committees out of the
hands of the republican caucus com
mittee and placing it in the hands Of
a committee of three TO be named by
the lieutenant governor was bitterly
fought yesterday morning by Senator
George B. Hudnall while the action
was defended by Senators Sanborn,
Donald. Martin and Husting.
The joint resolution calling for the
special recess committees reads:
That tour joint committees, each
consisting of four members of the as
sembly and three members of the SEN
ate be appointed in the manner that
standing joint committees are ap-
pointed"
Senator Hudnall maintained that
the language used clearly implied the
nomination of the members of these
committees by the regular caucus
committee and asked what politics
was being brought into the solution
OF the four propositions that this
change was attempted.
During the debate some old-time
factionalism developed and the terms
stalwart and half-breed were permit
ted to enter into the vocabulary OF
some of the solons. The Donald res
olution prevailed by a vote of Is to
IL.
Senator Page raised laugh by OBJ
serving that while the senator's had
the votes. by the aid of their demo
cratic allies, possibly, if the majority
of the republicans of the senate did
not feel satisfied with the commit
tees selected they would not permit
the governor to call any special SEES
sion.
The Kleczka bill forbidding the dis
charge of members of the fire and po-
lice departments in Milwaukee with
out a hearing was passed by the SEN
ate under suspension of the rules, on
motion of Senator L. Kleczka, not a
voice being raised against it.
A lively debate took place on the
Marsh bill doing away with fees at
the university. Senators Harsh and
Lockney favored the bill, which was
on the calendar for indefinite post
ponement. while Senator dudnall OF
the claims committee said it took
$4,000 Of the states money to gradu'
ate every student who completed the
four year course at the university
and it would require about $125.00O
additional from the state treasury If
the fees were abolished. After a
warm tilt the bill was indefinitely
postponed, 16 TO 8.
Indications that the friends of the
are to make a fight for an
increase in the two-sevenths mill tax
to three-eighths developed when the
Brazeau bill for university appropTi-
ations was reached. The bill was
made a special order for next Wednes-
day at 1890.
The senate refused a third reading
to the assembly bill requiring county
officers throughout the state to be
placed on a salary basis, passed
twelve senate bills and coneurred in
sixteen assembly bills, including the
Brew bill authorizing the state board
OF agriculture to pay heads of depart.
