Action of Frost on Plants,

A Swedish botanist has propounded a
new thory to explain the killing action
of frost on plants, as well as the fact
that certain plants escape damage
when others are destroyed. He OBJ
served that such plants as cerastium
and viola, which survive the severe
winters of Sweden, have the starch In
their leaves replaced during the cold
season by sugar. He then found that
in plants which do not possess this
popularity ice is formed in the inter
stices between the cells, and the wa
ter is withdrawn from the cell sap.
When the water is extracted the pro-
teins in the cell pass out of solution
with disastrous effects. But If sugar
is present the proteins remain in so
luton until a much lower temperature
is reached

LIGHTS HERE.

Some time ago Mrs. Mary Parcher
made donation of $1,000 to the
library board for the purchase of four
lights, to be placed on the library
grounds. The lights have at last ar
rived and will soon be set up. Each
is massive and of solid brass, hand
some in design, and they will add
large part to the ornamentation of
the grounds.
AS the metal parts have not as yet
been unpacked we could not make as
close an inspection of them as we
desired, and therefore cannot in this
issue give a detailed account of them.

Investigation shows that our state
ment of last week to the effect that
VIM. Kaatz of the town of Stettin
was cited to appear in La Crosse be-
fore the grand jury, was erroneous.
The story originated no doubt from
the fact investigation was being con-
Quoted of party which was held in
that section. AS Mr.. KaatZ had no
part in the disposing of liquor and is
a man who would not break the law
under any circumstances, he has no
connection with the affair.

ances. Mr.. Kavanaugh conducts a

London they departed on wedding
tour.
Geo. Henley and James O'Malley
were arrested at Eland Jet. Wednes-
day, charged with the theft of tools
from building belonging to the
Wausau Telephone Co. When ar
rested they had the tools with them
and admitted the theft. The original
charge of larceny was changed to one
of burglary, when it was found that
they had gained entrance to the build
ing by breaking through a window.
They appeared in court yesterday and
entered pleas of guilty. Henley was
sentenced to serve year in the peni-
Tertiary, while O'Malley was COM
mitted to Jail for six months.

turn evidently set some one thinking,
for few days later came the restitu-
ton of 1913 pounds. The restitution
Of about eighteen pence is easier TO

temptation to withhold the smaller
sum might have been in inverse ratio
