AN ALLEGED SHORTAGE
Bondsmen Charge That Accounts of
Late Robert A. Etter Show
Deficit of $I,84O.

Monroe.-That there is a short
age of $1,840 in the accounts of
the late Robt. A. Etter, postmaster,
is the allegation of his bondsmen,
who have asked the court to re-
strain his heirs, Mr.. Etter's daugh-
ters, from taking possession of any
of the estate, consisting mainly of
the insurance in the Woodmen order
1t is also alleged that the estate
is in debt to the amount of about
$4,000.
The alleged shortage in the post
Office accounts is said to have been
discovered by J. P. Walker, gov
eminent postoffice inspector
J. B. Treat and Henry Ludlow,
bondsmen, petitioned the court and,
in accordance, George E. Thorpe was
appointed administrator.
The allegation of the shortage
makes worse the confusion in regard
to the postoffice here. Congressman
Cooper appointed as a successor to
Mr.. Etter, Emery Odell, but the SEN
ate held up the appointment. Mr..
Etter had been a candidate for re-
appointment.

ARREST BOYS IN
BLACK HAND CASE
AUTHORITIES RESORT TO DUM-
MY PACKAGE PLAN AND
ARREST FOLLOWS.
ASKED FOR LARGE SUM
Two Letters Demanded $500, With
Death Threatened Upon
Refusal.

Waupaca.- Three boys were ar
rested on the charge of attempting
to secure $500 from E. l.. Devine
by blackhand methods. They are
Elmer Maynard, Charles Swalsby,
and Charles Hanson.
Last week Mr. Devine received a
letter demanding that he leave $500
in a package near the back door to
a store and threatening him with
death on refusal to comply with the
demand.
This letter appeared to have been
mailed on rural route No. 2. The
police and mayor were notified and
later the letter was sent to the post
Office authorities in Washington.
A second letter of the same pur-
port was received by Mr.. Devine,
who had not complied with the first
demand. Mayor Paronto instructed
Mr.. DeVine to obey the orders in the
letter and leave dummy package at
the place indicated. Mr. Devine fol-
lowed out the mayors plan.
The story of the Hansen boy is
said to place the blame on the May
nard boy He says the three boys
were in Hoffburger's saloon and
stepped out to the rear; that May
nard lit his pipe, depending on the
light to see if the package was there.
He is said to have picked it up so
slyly that the other two boys did not
know it and the officers near did
not observe his action.
When the boys left, the officers
discovered that the package was
gone. They took after the boys and
Maynard and Swalsby are now in the
county Jail. The dummy package, it
is said, was found in Maynard S

Hear the folks In house and street
Always talking of the heat,
With humid sort of humor as they part
or as they meet.
How they talk, talk, talk
AS they sit or as they walk,
OF mosquitoes, and of breezes that the
suns attacks could balk.
How they weep
Over sleep
That won't come to them at night!
How the girls
Fret of curls
That will never twist Alright!
See the men rotundly fat,
Each with a cabbage-leaf in hat
And with gaping shirt and vest
Wishing they were more undressed!
And the women slim and plump
Sitting down with angry bump,
Vowing that they know they'll die,
While they fan, and fuss, and SIGH
OF the heat, heat, heat, heat, heat, heat

Telling you How to Keep Cool;
Hear the doctors who advise us, each &C.
cording to his school,
Not to eat
Any meat,
Nor to drink the frigid liquids that are
either sour or sweet.
Not to walk where it is sunny,
Not to think about our money,
Not to quarrel nor to fight,
Nor to stay up late at night
Huh! They're firing and perspiring
While these things they are requiring
And the people that they blame
Are repining just the same
And would fain stab through and through
Him who comes and murmurs: "Ooh!
Is this hot enough for your"
o, the people that you meet
Standing with reluctant feet
Where the shade and sunshine meet
While they grumble and repeat:

III speech at the annual Wood
men reunion and field day at Madison
secretary Of State James A. Frear
Iliaue answer to a recent charge of
=. l.. Phillip of Milwaukee that the
state mas suffered in past years by
reason OF extravaganza in the admin
istratlon of its affairs, the charge be-
Ing aimed more particularly at Sec
rotary Frear.
The celebration here was unique
from the fact that political candidates
OF every party invited to be present
ana many accepted the invitation.
secretary Frear was the chief speak
er OF the day. In a statement which
was non-political in its nature, Mr..
Frear cited particularly the fact that
the reform laws affecting taxation of
public service corporations and insur-
ance companies had enabled the state
to remit millions of dollars to tax
payers, and, at the same time, carry
on all the business of the state with
out the imposition of a state tax for
any purpose, except the small mill
tax for graded schools. Beginning in
1903 state taxes were RENTED an
nually.
The record of state finances under
progressive legislation in recent
years has placed Wisconsin in the
forefront of all states" said Secre-
tary Frear. $50 far as can be ascer-
tained, no other state has handled it's
fund to better advantage or with
greater economy in the conduct of
administrative expenses.
"A pamphlet against political re-
form in Wisconsin has been given
some publicity and exploited for po-
litical purposes. In order to correct
erroneous conclusions that have been
drawn, few facts are presented from
the state records and the same years
of 1899 and 1908 are used in compare
son, as these years are the ones used
/ in the pamphlet.
1T should be understood that state
administration expenses are all paid
out Of the taxes and licenses received
of state revenues, but that no state
taxes were levied during the ten-year
period named, excepting for educa,
tional purposes. The reform law
which changed the method of railway
taxation, passed in 1903, together with
other recent laws, materially in.
creased the state revenues"

State to Count Marriages.


The state is going to check up the
marriages in Wisconsin from October
1, 1907, to December 81, 1909, for the
county clerks are receiving letters
from Madison from the ONCE of the
board of vital statistics instructing
them to send in the stubs Of all the
marriage licenses granted.
When the law was changed taking
away from the register of deeds in
the various counties the filing of
births, deaths, accidents and mar
riages with them and ordering that
these statistics be filed with the state
direct in the future, there was an
amendment to the 1907 laws passed
ordering the clerks to make stubs of
all marriage licenses issued and re-
tain them so that the state could get
the stubs for checking up the licenses.
The ministers, judges and justices
of the peace are now required to send
in all the marriage records to the
state. The state now desires to find
out If they have been complying with
the letter of the law and for this rea-
son asks for the stubs.
Some county clerks have failed to
keep an accurate record of the mar
riages licenses issued by them and
will be up against 1t.

State Seeks Injunction.

An action was begun in the circuit
court of Dane county before Judge E.
Ray Stems, on behalf of the state, for
the issuance of a temporary order re-
straining the American Refractories
company. an Illinois corporation,
from blasting and otherwise disfigur-
ing and destroying the natural condi-
lions and landscape on certain 80
acres of land at DEVILS lake, owned
by that corporation. until suit in con-
domination by the state park board,
begun in the circuit court for Sank
county, may be determined.
The land in question is wanted by
the state park board for park pur-
poses, to complete its plans at Devils
lake, but the corporation demands an
excessive price, claiming that the
rock there contains a peculiar ele-
ment valuable in the operation of its
business, that of making glazed
brick. To secure the property the
park board fin6s itself confronted
with the necessity of condemnation
and in order that the work OF distig-
urement of the landscape may not be
continued, pending the suit, this &C.
ton for restraining order is started.
H. l.. Butler of Madison appeared
for the corporation, and Deputy Attor-
ney General Russell Jackson for the
state. August II has been set for the
hearing. The constitutionality OF the
state park board law may be at
