foot or so above the first, both to be COW

in fact, any preferred trimming
Another idea is to gather the lower edge
into a deep band of contrasting material,
either in a solid hem number Of
overlapping folds. Surprising the wrap
is of cloth, then the band may be of
velvet, and vice versa.

DEAD MAN is NOMINATED.

Milwaukee, Wis, Sept. 11.-F'rank
T. Tucker, Of Neillsville, though
dead, has been nominated on the La
Folette ticket for the office of attor-
ney general by a plurality of 10000.
Tucker was drowned in myste-
rlous manner in Fox River at Osh-
kosh Thursday morning last at the
time he was supposed TO be on his
way to catch a train. 1t was too late
in the campaign to substitute another
name in his place and Charles II.
Crownhart, manager of the LaFollette
campaign, sent word to the voters
throughout the sate advising them
to cast their suffrage for Tucker with
the idea in view OF having the state
central committee substitute another
man.
A sensation In connection with
fuckers candidacy was the discovery
at Madison of a large number or
stamped envelopes belonging to the
state used in sending out fuckers
campaign literature. Tucker denied
that he had any connection with the
deal and declared / a "frame-up'

block and a quarter, beginning at
the corner of Thirteenth and John
son streets, was swept by fire at
o'clock this morning entailing a
loss of approximately $4,000, on
which was carried about half that
amount of insurance.
The fire originated in the old
Fillmore Street Presbyterian church
building, recently moved from the
uptown district, and from this the
flames ate their way through three
cottages belonging to Rev. Bennett
Hatcher and two owned by Sidney
G. Kays. The wind blew a gale at

much against the firemen.
1t was one of the hardest battles
ever waged by the fire department
and the loss was the greatest ever
sustained in the residential district
