PRISON THYME PLANE WAITS
Early Operation Not Planned by the,
State Board of Control, Says
Pres cent Craebner.

Observation-Disclosures priSon-made
binder Irvine is not product Of the
immediate future. When the wheels
plant will begin to turn is a ques-
ton clothed in indefniteness of the
deepest kind. This is the situation
as gathered from interviews with
President w. H. Graebner of the
state board of control.
President Graebner said about
three-fourths of the necessary ma
chinery is in place, and that the
board does not propose at present to
purchase the rest. So many other
important matters are pressing for
early attention, he said that the bin
der Irvine proposition may we'll wait
He would not concede that the plant
would be in operation this year
The last legislature appropriated
$4,000 for completing the equip
ment of the plant. and 5000 600,
available January l, 1912, and $780,
600 more available January 1, 1918,
for use as a revolving fund in the
tory. The latter fund is to be used
by the board of control to purchase
raw materiaf~and for carrying, hand
ling and marketing the manufactured
product. The money coming from the
sale of the Irvine is to be turned
into the state treasury to the credit
of the revolving fund. Whenever
this fund shall exceed 100000, the
excess will be transferred to the
states general fund.

BEING A GOOD FELLOW.

Every now and then we hear OF
some one dying in bitter poverty after
having spent fortune in. being a
good fellow" OF such one it is com
monty said while he is alive and
spending that he has heart like an
OK and hand always deep in his
pocket" he is spoken of-frequently
within his own hearing-as a prince
among men, or zone of natures noble
men" It seems passing strange that
man with the power to attract to
himself SO many warm friends should
not have any willing to pay his funeral
expenses. says the New York Herald.
Yet such is often the case. 1t is a
fact frequently commented On by
philosophers that these peerages of
cafe creation die with the fortunes
that produce them. A real prince
among men" or natures nobleman"
loses his title when his money ceases
to burn holes in his pocket, after
which he should set aside a little
money for his own obsequies. But
those who argue from the forlorn and
friendless passing of one of these
good fellows" that there are no real
friends to be had in this world are
wrong. Every one can make friends,
and stanch ones. too, by the practice
of unselfshness. but not by wasting
money on the worthless In the vain
hope of being considered a good fell
low" which is merely another name
for a complete fool.

HAIL DOES GREAT DAMAGE
Storm in Trempeieau and Vernon
Counties Disastrous to Crops
and Buildings.

Trempealeau. - The most terrific
hail storm ever known here did an
immense amount of damage to crops
and property. The north and west
sides of every building in town had
from five to twenty window glasses
shattered, the high school building
alone having fifty-fve panes broken,
creating a panic among the pupils.
Actual measurements of some of
the hail stones showed them to be
Ia inches around and five picked up
at random weighed six pounds. The
damage done theA city will exceed
$4,000 and in the surrounding coun-
try it is beyond computation, reach
ing up to many thousands. Corn,
barley and fruit trees suffered heay-
lily. Thousands of trees were fairly
stripped Of their limbs, while much
poultry and small stock were killed.
The storm did much damage in
Vernon county, making worthless the
standing tobacco crop. About four
fifths of the acreage of that county
has already been harvested, but the
loss to growers will be from $4,000
to SIS, 1000

STATE FAIR Of 1911
OPENED TO PUBLIC
EXHIBITS ARE MORE NUMEROUS

TO BE GREATEST YET HELD
Secretary Rowlands Confident That
Exhibition Will Surpass Any of
Previous Years-Hotel Men Pre-
dict Record Crowds.

Milwaukee, - When the gates
opened to admit the public to the
1911 Wisconsin state fair, every
thing was in place for the great
show.
Two thousand exhibitors, their as
sistants and workmen spent all Of
the previous day getting things ready
for the opening. An army of ex-
perts, artisans and directors put the
finishing touches on one of the great
est displays of Wisconsin products
that has even been shown.
Previously it has been the custom
to open the fair on Monday, but the
plan this year called for opening on
Tuesday so that the exhibition would
be complete before the public was
admitted to the park
Hotel men of Milwaukee say that
they have never had as great a de-
mand for rooms during state fair
week as they have this year,
Secretary Rowlands is very enthu-
siastic over the prospects for one of
the greatest fairs that has ever been
held in the state.
From present indications l be-
lieve that this is going to be the
greatest state fair that Wisconsin has
ever held said Mr.. Rowlands. "Ev-
erything points to success. There
are more exhibitors; there are more
race horses and there is more of
everything than has ever been shown
at a previous state fair. / am sure
that the people of the state will say
that we have given them a show that
will place Wisconsin in the front
ranks of the states of the middle

KIDNAPPED MADISON
CHILD MURDERED
BODY OF 7-YEAR-OLD DAUGH-
TER OF LABORER is FOUND
IN LAKE MONONA.
LARGE REWARD FOR SLAYER
Citizens of Madison Raise Fund of
$1,000 and City Offers a Like
Amount-Autopsy Reveals Child
Was Not Degenerate's Victim.

Madison. The search for little An
son girl who it is believed was stolen
while fast asleep, was ended when
her body was found in Lake Monona.
1t was about ten feet from shore at
the south city limits, about mile
from the home of the child's parents.
While the mystery of her where
abouts was incidentally solved, still
deeper mystery, the motive for her
murder, is now presented. Her faith
er, who is common laborer, had nc
money to pay a possible ransom, and
one theory is that the child was stol-
en- and killed for revenge. =
There was no visible evidence OF
violence SO far as a superficial eX-
animation disclosed, beyond a slight
laceration of one ear. A discolora-
ton on the neck, however, as if from
unnatural causes, may indicate that
the child was strangled The little
body was entirely nude and was dis
colored, having been in the water
four days.
At the autopsy it was found that
there was no water in the lungs.
Facts revealed seemed to indicate
that the child was slugged and then
tossed into the lake.
The citizens of Madison decided to
offer a reward Of $1,000 for the con-
yiction of the murderer of Annie
Lemberger. Mayor Schuber has Of
fered similar reward on behalf of
the city.
John Johnson, an ex-conyict, liv-
Ing three doors from the Lemberger
home, was arrested on suspicion or
being connected with the crime, and
later released.
The parents of the slain child are
exhibiting grief too genuine to sus-
pect them OF any completely, as neigh
borhood gossip has done.

field-No Fatalities.

Fond du Lac.-Ten men were in
jured in a. head-on collision between
two light engines and a wrecking
train~on the Northwestern line, three
miles north of Oakfield.
The wreck is supposed to have been
caused by the dense fog which pre-
vailed at the time and which made
it impossible for the crews of the
two trains to see each others APP
proach. All of the injured were
members of the tive train crews. None
will die. Traffic on the division was
tied up throughout the day, the
track being torn up for a distance of

DIES IN STREET CAR WRECK
One Killed and Ten Hurt When Mil
waukee Trolley Car Runs Into an
Open Switch at Full Speed.

Milwaukee. One was killed and at
least ten were more or less seriously
injured when a Third street car,
bound for West Allis, struck a turned
switch at Sixth and Greenfield ave-
nues while going at full speed and
turned over on it's side.
The dead:
Henry Homolka, switchman, aged
So.
The injured:
: Louis Krundick, motorman, leg
broken.
Rev. c. F. O'Reilly, Chicago, seri-
ously injured about head and body
Emil Burmeister, Waukesha, cut
about head; condition serious.
Seven others received minor in
juries.
The car was going at between thir-
ty-fiye and forty miles an hour, ac-
cording to witnesses and the momen-
tum carried it over on it's side, dash
ing its forty occupants from their
seats.
Instantly the air was filled with
shrieks and cries, and those in the
vicinity rushed to the assistance of
the injured. They crawled through
the windows and doors of the over
turned wreck and the attention of
the rescuers was turned to Homolka
the man who died later, and the mo-
torman, Louis Krumdick, who was
pinned in the wreckage.
