The trouble started when a tele-

walking with a young woman when
Ed. Ruse, a negro, In passing, push
Cd the girl from the sidewalk into the
mud Swazer struck at the negro and
another white man, whose name is
being kept secret, seized Ruse and
svazer beat him with his fists.
Ruse had been walking the streets
with a long knife in his pocket seek
ing the man who held him. When
CITY Marshal Hart ordered the negro
10 give up the knife, Ruse shot at
him.
At that instant Ed. Suddeth ran
out of a house across the street and
opened fire, instantly killing City At

and Thompson, all of whom were
passing and had taken no part in the
trouble.
Suddeth took refuge in a nearby
house, which was bombarded with
guns and revolvers by several white
men. The house was set afire and
Suddeth fed. He was shot but not
fatally injured. He was taken. to the
water tank, a rope placed about his
neck and he was swung up.
It was then decided, however, that
to kill him would precipitate a gen
eral race war and he was cut down.
He was placed in vacant building
and guarded, but later it was deter

FITTING UP NURSERY
FURNITURE APPROPRIATE FOR
THE OCCUPANTS.
Suitable Room, with Proper Environ
ments, Is Something Child Has
Right to Demand-Rugs More
Sanitary Than Carpets.

The furniture of nursery should be
simple and substantial. but not over
towering and out of proportion to the
little inmates of the room. There
should be at least one "child-size" Ia
BILE and several chairs to match. The
furniture should be low and broad and
sufficiently heavy so that 1t Is not cas-
fly upset. The manufacturers today
are making delightful sets of furniture
for children, and the prices are reason
able, SO that there is little excuse for
inappropriate furniture.
So many nurseries are just make
shifts-the sewing-room or the den Is
appreciated for baby's headquarters.
and no effort is made to transform the
room by banishing those things that
are unnecessary and unsuited to nur-
sery Just as with us grown-ups.
there are certain rooms in which we
prefer to sit, the room containing our
favorite books and pictures in all prob
ability-so it is with the children. The
child grows to love his nursery and
to feel at ease there if it is a suitable
room with the proper environment.
Rugs are preferable to carpet in a
nursery as they are more sanitary. II
a rug cannot be obtained in the de-
sirable size, carpet may be made in
to a rug of almost any dimensions.
Notified velvets are suitable for a
nursery, their effect being similar to
that of a plain carpet, but they are
more serviceable. Wilton rugs and
the ingram rugs made in Scotland. are
also used for nurseries. The hand
woven rag rugs are particularly appro-
pirate, being washable and very dur
able The rugs are now made with

DESIGN WORTH COPYING HATPMs OF MODEST DESIGN
Conspicuous Styles No Longer in
Vogue-SimpIicity Has Replaced
Ostentation.

Conspicuous hatpins have been run
to ground and the well-dressed woman
strives for plain effects. Some prefer
the ordinary black or white headed
pins at one cent apiece.
New ones suited to refined tastes
are of carved ivory. These come in
plaque and diamond shape, in floral
designs and Chinese characters for
good luck and happiness.
Equally stylish Is the hatpin of tor
toise shell, with round or square top,
in two tones of shell and sometimes
banded or bordered with a dark cen.
ter, lighter ring and a dark rim On
white hats Irish crochet motifs are
good
A hatpin top that can be made at
home is a round, square or diamond
of colored beads CON ned with a de.
sign in larger square or oval beads
The beadworker can easily make sets
of pins to correspond with different
hats.

ment is making excellent progress Oh
its report for a redistricting of the
state. and 1t is understood the assem-
bly, bill will be reported this week,
the senate apportionment bill to fol-
low in a few days. The members of
the joint committee are Senators
Owen, Kleczka, Krumrey. True and
Harper, Clark, Nye, G. ]. Johnson, Ur-
quhart, Gilbertson, Jockey, Pickart,
Long and Dinner
The plan being followed by the COM
mittee is the consideration OF assem-
bly,, senate and congressional districts
on different bases. each one to be
treated in a separate bill. The COM
mittee is working to report measures
for a fair apportionment on the basis
of population. The purpose behind the
plan is the elimination OF pol1t1cal
considerations as far as possible, 1t
being the opinion that if all of the
three classes of districts were consid-
cred in the same bill there would De
opportunity for political chickering's
and vote-swapping.
The binder Irvine bill started lot
of fireworks. Assemblyman Hanson
led the opposition, declaring that the.
proposition calls for total approprla-
ton of $450,000, and viewed from
business standpoint it is bad prop
osition. Assemblyman Fisher at
tempted to offer an amendment to
submit this question to vote of the
people, but Speaker Ingram ruled
that Mr.. Fishers amendment came
too late and he was not permitted to
offer it. Assemblyman Hanson's mo-
ton to reconsider the vote by which
the bill was concurred in was imme-
diately acted upon and the assembly
refused to reconsider.
The big fight over the Hanson bill
to drop the bars relating to the en-
ployment of child labor in canning
factories in the months of July and
August was disposed of when Speaker
Migrants amendment was adopted.
This amendment provides that child
labor may be employed not more than
II hours a day and not more than six
days week, the total work in one
week not to exceed so hours.

Civil War Pageant for State Fair.
If a plan, proposed at the meeting
of the state fair board by Francis A.
Cannon, is carried out, a grand
pageant or spectacle. representative
of some phase of the Civil war, will
be one of the most prominent fea-
lures of the fair this year.
Mr. Cannon, who is member of
the committee on attractions, said:
"As this is the fiftieth anniversary
of the Civil war, it seems to me that
a pageant or spectacle could be
given which would meet with the ap-
prevail of all.
We could possibly arrange to re-
produce some battle of the war.
There are many avs in which 1t
could be worked out 1t would not
only have the merit of being an at
traction of the most novel character
but it would necessarily be educa-
tional as we'll as entertaining" The
board approved the idea. No definite
action was taken with reference to
the aeroplane fight other than
that 1t was fully approved. 1t was
decided to allow $4,000 to be ex-
pended for this feature. Roy Knab-
enshue made proposition to the
board for a flight, but as negotiations
are under way with several other avia-
tors, no action was taken.

Roosevelt Lauds U. of w.


TN no other state in the union has
any university done the same work
for the community that has been done
in Wisconsin by the University OF
Wisconsin," writes Col. Theodore
Roosevelt in the Outlook in a signed
article on wisconsin, An Object Les
son for the Rest of the Union"
81 found the president and teach
ing body of the university" he con-
tinued, accepting as matter OF
course the view that their duties
were imperfectly performed unless
they were performed with an eye to
the direct benefit of the people of the
state; and l found the leaders of
political life so far from adopting
the cheap and foolish cynicism OF
attitude taken by so many politicians
toward men of academic training,
turning equally as matter of course
toward the faculty of the university
for the most practical and efficient
aid in helping them realize their
schemes for special and civic better
ment.
THE state of Wisconsin has now
developed such a body of public
opinion, and such a body of leader
ship among its public men and its
students, that hereafter we have
good reason to hope that we can find
within our own borders what we
need. We can now, at least in many
cases, look for leadership to Wiscon-
sin when we desire to try to solve
the great social and industrial prob
lens of the present and the future,
instead of being forced always to
look abroad 1t is noteworthy that
in Wisconsin it is possible to include
therein the student as well as the
political leader"
