BOARD OF CONTROL ELECTS
Graebner Chosen President of Reor-
gained Body-State School at
Sparta May Be Investigated.

Madison.-The new state board of
control held it's first meeting today to
organize for the work of coming five
years under the law passed two years
ago. All the new members where
here. They elected these officers:
President, w. H. Graebner, Milwau-
kee; vice-president, Almah J. Frisby,
Milwaukee; corresponding secretary,
Ralph E. Smith, Merrill.
The board did not act upon the
election of secretary as the term does
not expire until July 1. At that time
the boards elections of the various
superintendent of state penal and
charitable institutions expire. The
board probably will not take action
on these elections until the end OF
the fiscal year, June 80.
It was rumored that there were
complaints against the management
of the state public school at Sparta
and that there was serious move
ment seeking to persuade the board
to demand the immediate resignation
of Supt. c. M. Bright. 1t is said
that some of the members of the
board are not satisfied with condl'
lions at Sparta.

LIVED LONG WITHOUT EATING
Men and Animals Have Made Some
Remarkable Fasts j Matter

The record for fasting, SO far as hu-
mainly is concerned, Is held by
Granie, a French murderer, who de-
termined to starve himself to death,
and fn,m the day of his arrest refused
to eat In spite of every effort on the
part of his warders, who first tried
tempting him to eat by placing the
most dainty meals in his cell. and
when that failed, attempted feeding
him by force, he held out for 63 days,
at the end of which time he died. Up
to then the longest authenticated fast
on record was that accomplished by
Giovanni Succi, who tasted at the
Royal Aquarium, London. for 45 days.

CITY PLUNGED IN DARKNESS
Fire Destroys Racine Electric Light
and Power Plant With $4,000
Loss-Makes Factories Idle.

Racine.-Fire which completely
destroyed the power house of the Mil
waukee Light, Heat and Traction
company here, entailing a loss of over
S14O, 900, plunged the entire city into
total darkness, brought street car
and interurban traffic to a complete
standstill and will result in the clos
ing down of a number of factories in
the city which depend on electricity
for motive power.
The blaze started in the roof of
the power house directly over a new
switchboard, and in two minutes had
gained such Roadway that firemen
were forced to confne Ineir efforts
to saving adjoining buildings. For
time it seemed as if the big factory
of the Miller Shoe company, the Ra-
cine theater and the car barns would
also 60.
The power house is situated in the
heart of town, within a block of the
city hall After a stubborn battle the
department managed to prevent the
flames from spreading, but were I'M
able to save any of the equipment at
the power house.
! 1t may be weeks before the system
will be in running condition, and I'M
less temporary lighting systems can
be installed, business houses, the
aters and residences with electric
connections will be forced to fall back

WATER COMPANY IN APPEAL
Authority of State Railroad Commits
sion in Fixing Sale Price on APP
pleton Waterworks Challenged.

Madison.-Suit has been COM
menced in the circuit court here by
the Appleton Waterworks company to
set aside and vacate the order of the
railroad commission according to
which the company must sell it's plant
to the city of Appleton for 1925, 900.
The company sets forth that at
special election August %, 1910, the
majority voted for purchase of the
plant and that December Z, 1910, the
railroad commission fixed the price
at 1925, 900.
In objecting to the order, the water
company maintains that it never con-
scented to the sale of the plant and
that the railroad commission, without
jurisdiction, power or authority, de-
termined the price, which is much
less than a fair and true value of the
property.

EDITOR BROWNE
OF The Rockford Morning Star.

About seven years ago I ceased
drinking coffee to give your Postum
trial
Il had suffered acutely from various
forms of indigestion and my stomach
had become so disordered as to repel
almost every sort Of substantial food.
My general health was bad. At close
intervals l would suffer severe attacks
which confined me in bed for week
or more. Soon after changing from
coffee to Postum the Indigestion
abated, and in a short time ceased
entirely. I have continued the daily
use OF your excellent Food Drink and
assure you most cordially that I am
indebted to you for the relief it has
brought me.

OF course, when mans health
shows he can stand coffee without
trouble, let him drink 1t, but most
highly organized brain-workers sim
ply cannot.
The drugs natural to the coffee ber-
ry affect the stomach and other organs
and thence to the complex nervous
system, throwing it out Of balance and
producing disorders in various parts
of the body. Keep up this daily pois-
oning and serious disease generally
supervenes. So when man or woman
finds that coffee is a smooth but dead
ly enemy and health Is Of any value
at all, there is but one road-quit.
1t is easy to find out If coffee be the
cause of the troubles, for If left OF 10
days and Postum be used In its place
and the sick and diseased conditions
begin to disappear, the proof Is I'M
answerable.
Postum is not good II made by short
boiling. 1t must be boiled full Is min
utes after boiling begins, when the
crisp flavor and the food elements are
brought out of the grains and the bev-
erage is ready to fulfill It's mission OF
palatable comfort and renewing the
cells and nerve centers broken dowr
by coffee.
