THE DESIGN
Xmas Stamp for the Anti Tu-
berculosis Association
Chosen by Judges
MILWAUKEE, MAN WINS PRIZE

! After an entire week spent in ex-
aiming the 1884 designs submitted in
the contest, the judging committee of
the Wisconsin Anti-Tuberculosis Asso-
citation has finally selected the stamp
to be sold broadcast during the Christ
mas holidays to raise funds with which
to fight the white plague
The winner Of the $500 prize offered
for the best design is Walter Cohn, a
commercial artist, 759 Cass street, Mil
waukee.
| The design selected is simple, but of
striking beauty. The ground is white
and the design is worked out in red
and green. The stamp will be one
and half inches long and one inch
wide. It's short width. viii be the top
of the stamp.
Across the top Of the design are
three Christmas bells, below them is a
holly wreath surrounding the double
red cross emblem of the association.
The stamp bears the inscriptions,
"Wisconsin Christmas Stamp, = "Mer-
ry Christmas, Happy New Year. ''W.
A. T. A. 1909 The name Wisconsin
appears prominently at the top of the
stamp and this was one of the principal
reasons why Mr.. Cohn S design was
preferred.
About 100000 of the new stamps
will be issued on, Nov. Is and the sale
of them will be pushed from that
time until after the holiday season.
The association expects to realize
$4,000 by the sale Of the stickers
this year.

of the tax 50 levied. Special attention

of the tax SO levied. Special attention
is called to this because the State
Treasurer requires it to know the am
cunt of tax Which was adjudged to be
paid so that he may be enabled there
by to check the amount due from the
several county treasurers. This he will
be unable to do unless he is furnished
with a copy of the order; and the
State Treasurer informs me that with
the exception of three or four coun-
ties in this state this provision of law
has not been complied with.
"Service of copy of the order upon
the State Treasurer could be accom-
plished with very little trouble to
County Judges if directions were given
to the attorney for the administrator
or executor to attend to it.
eff you have not heretofore appoint
ed a public administrator, please do at
your earliest convenience. These off
GERS may be of great assistance to the
court and their services may be re-
quired at any time.
E'The district attorney should he
called upon to examine witnesses to
Fascertain whether the estate has been
all inventoried and has been properly
appraised or at any time when you
think such examination will be of ass
istance to you, and, as stated, this de-
partment will render such assistance
as is within it's power.
Gone of the principal reasons for
the recent changes in the machinery
of collecting this tax is, that in having
"a public administrator to look after
the collection there is an official in
each county whose special duty will
be to examine into inheritance tax
matters.
Trusting that what I have said
may be Of some assistance and value to
you in securing a uniform, impartial
and effective administration of the
law, remain, Very truly yours,
F. F. Gilbert,
Attorney General.

LONG SUPPORTED HIS MOTHER
Mother and Sister of Man Arrested in
Connection With the Death of Her
man Martin Come to Kenosha to
Fight for His Liberty,
(From Tuesdays Daily

Mrs. IL. Hasten, mother Of Herman
Hasten, held at the county Jail in con
nection with the murder Of Herman
Martin, and Mrs. R. H. Ploog, a sister
Of the accused man, came to Kenosha
this afternoon to make an effort to Sc
cure the release Of HASTEN from the
county jail and declaring that they be-
lieve in his innocence they will seek
to employ an attorney and at once Sc
Ecure the release of hasten on bail.
There was touching reunion between
the mother and sister and HASTEN at
the Jail and when the two women left
the Jail both were sobbing as if their
hearts would break and Hasten, who
had won the name of being a silent
man, went back to his cell with tears
coursing down his cheeks and fgreat
sobs making it impossible for him to
say anything in regard to the visit of
his mother and sister.
Mrs. hasten was seen shortly after
her interview with her son. She was
still weeping, but between her sobs
she declared: II know that Herman is
not guilty Of the charges made against
him. He has such big heart that he
would never harm anyone and he told
me that he did not, have anything to
do with the death of Martin Mrs.
Ploog stated that her brother had al
ways been very considerate Of the
feelings of his mother and that he had
been unusually kind to her during the
past twenty years when he had been
her support. con account Of the de-
sire Of my brother not to worry mother
we had not been advised of his arrest
until yesterday and then the news did
not come from him. He wanted to
keep all the members Of the family
from knowing that he was in trouble,
but we have come to Kenosha to do
little pleasanter for him. Both moth
er and | are convinced Of the limo
cence Of brother Herman and while we
have no great amount of money we are
going to do everything possible to show
that he had nothing to do with this
crime. 1t is a great pleasure for me
to know that he will have a good din
ner today as [ brought him up big
box of lunch and this will help some
in making him comfortable. y
Mrs. Ploog stated that her brother
had left his home in Chicago a little
over six weeks ago and that his mother
had received letters from him on sew
eral occasions, but that he had care
fully guarded from her the facts in
regard to his being in trouble. She
also stated that she had asked her
brother in regard to the killing Of
Martin and he said that he had told
the officials all that he knew about
the case. Mrs. hasten and Mrs. Plooe
will at once appeal to the district at
torney to have the case rushed in order
that HASTEN may have a hearing just
as soon as possible Herman should
have had hearing before this time"
said Mrs. Ploog, and we don t want
it to be delayed any longer than is
absolutely necessary
Mrs. Hasten and her daughter have
secured a room in a boarding house
near the county Jail where it will be
possible for them to see the son and
brother every day and they will at
once begin work in his behalf.

1t is, however, a plain fact that in
this country women are more cultured
than men; on the average are better
educated. The boys quit school earli-
er to go to work and the unpleasant
fact is that they too often cease study
