Suspicion and plscord.

Every one was nasty the next morn
ing Aunt Selma declared that her
feet were frost-bitten and kept Bella
rubbing them with ice water all morn
ing And Jim was impossible. He re
fused to speak to any of us, and he
watched Bella furtively, as if he sus-
pected her of trying TO get him out OF
the house.
When luncheon time came around
and he had shown no indication of go
ing to the telephone and ordering it,
we had conclave and Max was
chosen to remind him of the hour
Jim was shut in the studio. and we
waited together in the hall while
Max went up. When he came down
he was somewhat ruff1ed
He wouldn't open the door," he
reported. and when told him it
was meal time. he said he wasn't hun
cry. and he didn't give a whoop about
the rest OF us. He had asked US here
to dinner; he hadn't proposed to
adopt us"
So we finally ordered luncheon our
selves. and about two o'clock Jim
came downstairs, sheepishly, and ate
what was left. Anne declared that
Bella had been scolding him in the
upper hall, but doubted it. She was
never seen to speak to him unneces-
sarily.

RECALL ADOPTED IN SENATE
Resolution Providing for Constitu-
t'onai Amendment Affects All the
State Officers Except Judges.

Madison.--After a heated discus
sion lasting over two hours in which
the social democrats we're bitterly
attacked after they had assailed the
Judiciary of the state, the senate. by
a vote of 20 to Z, adopted the reso-
tuition introduced by the committee on
judiciary providing for constitution
al amendment for the recall of all
state officers except Judges.
me resolution as originally intro
duced by Senator Husting included
the Judiciary, but it was due to the
fact that the social democrats favored
this provision and the warming given
by their political opponents regarding
what would happen should this pro-
vision be included, that undoubtedly
secured the passage of the substitute.

NesUs Notes of Wisconsin

MISUNDERSTANDING is in progress
here. This is not due to the facs
that Wausaukee's climate has become
rival OF that in the southern states,
but to the fact that the first heavy
snow of last winter covered a large
quantity of mown hay. which has
been preserved throughout the win
ter without damage, and is now being
stacked. Large crops of potatoes are
also being taken from the ground.
Madison.-The state railroad COM
mission has ordered the Milwaukee
and 500 roads to refund to the Me
nasha Paper company of Ladysmith
$o9S.T0 as oyercharges on shipments
of pulpwood from Ellis Junction and
Stiles to Ladysmith. The railroad
companies charged joint rate of 10
cents per 100 pounds. which the COM
mission decided was 3 u cents more
than they should have charged.
Fond du Lac.-The sweet girl

North Fond du Lac this year, as
Harold Shidel is the whole high
school graduating class, valedictoriap
salutatorian, president and all the
rest of the officers. Despite this fact
the June exercises will be elaborate,
as Shidel is the first class to graduate
from the school.
