old Mas Of south America.

Claude vautin an English mining
engineer, who has been prospecting in
Peru. returned the other day on the
steamship Zacapa Besides looking
after mining property. he has been
collecting interesting antiquities OF
the country.
One Of the most interesting things
he brings back with him is a map Of
South America made by the Jesuits in
1892. 1t gives an outline of the land
as far north as Cuba and is apparent
ly accurate Its purpose is evidently
plain, for every missionary station In
the country at that time is indicated
on the map, and the line Of travel
necessary to reach them is marked
out. This map was obtained by Mr.
Vautin at Puno. Peru
Another interesting collection he
brought back is the death masks of
the Incas These were hammered out
of metal and placed over the faces OF
the dead. Three of these obtained by
Mr.. Vautin are of sheet gold.

nominated at primary attended by

centage of votes at the primary cleo
lions, necessary to entitle one to a
party nomination, from 20 to per
cent
The governor said: Candidates
nominated at primary attended by
less than 10 per cent of the voters
of their party, can scarcely be said
to be representative. At any rate,
further to reduce the percentage to
FIVE, will inevitably open the way to
a species of political intrigue and
chicanery to which the people OF
this state are sufficiently familiar
and the statute herein questioned
was intended to prevent.

FIRE THREATENS BIG BLOCK
Old Landmark at Grand Rap DIS De-

Only After a Hard Battle.

Grand Rapids. The Hoskinson
building nearly burned to the ground
by a fire which also threatened to
wipe out the entire block of stores
occupied by the Johnson & Hill COM
pany. The origin of the fire is said
to have been caused by a gasoline
stove in the restaurant located on
the ground floor of the building.
The Hoskinson building was one
of the old landmarks in the city, hav-
ing been built by G. A. Corriveau in
the early seventies, and was at that
time the leading mercantile store in
the city.

TON METHODS NECESSARY
UNDER THE 1911 LAW.
MANY ALIENS TO BE BARRE
Men Not Fully Qualified to Exercise
Vot.ng Franchise Are Under Ban
of Statute - Ele ctors Must Appear
Personally for Registration.

Madison. With the knowledge
that in Wisconsin there are Thousands
of names Illegally registered on vot-
ing lists, the legislature at its ses-
sion just closed has made a sweeping
change in registry methods. In April
1913, in all cities of the second,
third and fourth classes, and villages
and towns in which registry is re-
CURED there must be a new registry
of electors. No old polling lists will
be used in whole or in part, and no
persons name will be placed upon
the list unless the elector appears
personally before the inspectors and
requests that his name be registered,
The new statute will bar a large
number of aliens who have been
voting illegally. Lax requirements
have permitted the registry of thou
sands of men of foreign parentage,
who have not been fully naturalized
and who have in many cases taken
only their first papers,
1t is provided in the law that any
person whose name is not on the
registry, but who is a qualified voter
therein shall nevertheless be enti-
tied to vote at the April election
1913, upon the making of an atii-
davit in the usual form, one require
ment in which is the declaration of
citizenship.

GRAIN CROP TO BE SMALLER

Hay and Rye Outlook Good,

Madison. A lessened yielG in the
grain crop in Wisconsin will mark
the present season, according to Prof.
r. A. Moore of the agricultural college
of the University Of Wisconsin. who
has returned from trip of inspection
throughout the state. Prof Moore s
report has N ay cheering features,
however, one of which is that the
wheat crop win be better than eX-
pected The southwestern part of
the state has been hard hit by
drought and small grains noticeably
will suffer.
THE hay crop on the whole will
be fine, said Prof Moore. 1T is
especially so in northern Wisconsin.
The rye crop is good, In fact it
never looked finer The pea crop
has suffered somewhat from blight,
taking the form of a disease in the
ground In northern Wisconsin this
crop is looking excellent. Toward
the south it Is not so good. The
corn crop never looked better and
promises to be the best in many
years.

great development in northern Wis

opened up to settlement and agri
culture very rapidly States further

is going to drive a great many peo-

Wisconsin and Minnesota where

Not only is more building done to-

problem of building construction is
itself more complex and more difficult

for this are not far to seek. The rapid

general prosperity, the growth OF In
dividual fortunes, the evolution OF new
structural materials and of new me-

treatment, the invention of new and
