lily of nineteen children and is bed
ridden most of the time on account of

IF physically able, she would be
willing to care for all the children you
could carry to her." said one of the
members of her family.
She was left a widow with six chill
dren, Sarah, Mary, Frank, Belle, Rosa
and Isaac Fish. Then she married

mission ordered that the rule requir-
ing such markings be modified so that
only the initials of the customers may
be affixed in all shipments of less than
carload lots. Complaint against this

The story of Paul Adamski, the man
in jail at Racine and supposed to be
insane, that he threw away $500 when
he was being chased across the coun-
try by the police, believing he was
pursued by thieves, has been verified
by the finding of $500 near Corliss by
Thomas Burns. Burns notified Sheriff
Derricks, who went to Corliss and was
told the money had been turned over
to constable. The constable turned
over 5000, which he said was all he
received, but the sheriff has made a
demand for 1890 and has threatened

WISCONSIN LEGISLATURE
Review of the Most Impor-

Legislators for the
Week.

Madison, Wis. May 1.-THE senate
this morning.
The bill to create a board to regu-
late the practice of optometry called
forth protest from Senator White
head, who characterized it as vicious
legislation. 1--WE first appoint one
board to regulate the practice of medi-
cine," he said, land then this board
appoints another to regulate optomet-
ry and report not to the legislature
but to itself. 1t seems to me that it
is long step in the direction of beau
rocracy, is vicious in principle and
outrageous in practice
The bill was then killed, as was also
another excepting present oculists
from examination.
Among bills advanced were 37A
(BarnetD, for police and fire commits
sioners in cities of the fouth class,
and 556A (V. H. Cady), for support of
poor relatives.
Senator Hudnall presented a petit
ton for the legalizing of boxing.
Upon the converting of the assem-
bly, this morning a roll call was dis
pensed with, as it was believed that a
quorum was not present.
The committee on elections intro
duced bill for the election of one
party committeeman instead of three
as at the present time.
The assembly passed:
131A (HammiD takes from fish
commission and give to game warden
supervision over fish and dams; 235A
(BancrofD, contrayention of trusts in
certain cases; 285A (Grosse), collec-
ton of lake trout and whitefish eggs
from the outlying waters; 879A, to re-
imburse county superintendent for
travelling expenses to state convention
called by state superintendent.
The vote on which joint resolution
GA was passed Friday was reconsid-
cred and laid over until tomorrow
This resolution cuts off new bills after
May II. The purpose of reconsidera-
ton is to permit the introduction of
bills by the legislative investigating
committee.

window. Besides being fine for soups
it makes fine garnish for meat and
salad dishes.
In plant raising and growing sue
cess is built upon failures. Prof by
the mistakes.
Seed boxes are called flats" and
should be four to six inches deep, a
size to handle easily, with crooks or
barred holes in the bottom for drain
age.
The soil used should not be unduly
rich and should be thrown roughly
into the bottom, a few inches deep,
then fine, sifted soil to a depth of an
inch or more covering this.
Scatter the seeds, or plant in little
open trenches, covering according to
size. pressing dow the soil with a
piece of fiat board.
Very small seeds should be barely
covered, larger seeds to a deeper
depth. Many hard-shelled seeds, k
the Gamma, must have the outer shell
filled or soaked by pouring boiling
water over. letting stand until cool
before planting.
The soil should be we'll wet, then
covered with a piece Of f1anne1 n

the little plants begin to show, then
brought gradually to the light, re-

Do o keep too wet, or the young
plants will have a tendency to damp
