oner Should Handle Inquest.
 BURLINGTON, N. J., Dec. 10.- Ten minutes after physicians had pronounced him dead, a Burlington township farmer named Buzby sud denly broke up an argument as to which coroner should investigate his sudden and mysterious death. and gave crowd in the Hotel Metropolitan the scare of their lives.
 A brother found Buzby apparently lifelfs ss in hotel room. He sum- moned physicians. Buzby responded to none of the remedies, and was given up for dead, and an undertak- CT was summoned. Upon the arrival of the undertaken there was a dis cussion whether Coroner Bisbing or Coroner-elect Leconey should be notified Suddenly the "corpse" sat up on the bed.
 Why. Bill, what's the matter?" he exclaimed. and the terror-strick- en crowd fell back.
 Then he again relapsed, but the physicians were able to revive him, and he is expected to recover. The doctors say Buzby's case is one of the strangest on record. They say for at least ten minutes there was a total cessation of respiration and pulsation. He is suffering from kidney disease.

TAWNEY WILL JET
 NEW J0B
DEMOCRATS BOOMING HIM FOR GOVERNOR OF THE PANAMA
 CANAL ZONE

WASHINGTON. Dec. r. - Repre sentative James A Tawney. of Min nesota. will probably be the next gov ernor of the Panama Canal Zone: that is if he wants the job If fl doesn't appeal to him it looks as il he could have almost anything he does want. A remarkable non-parti san move ment is under way in the house of representatives. Its design is to urge upon the president the appointment of Mir. Tawney to a place where. in the words of Repr sentative Burleson, of Texas. senior Democratic members of the hous, appropriations committee. he may continue his invaluable services to the government"
 In an interview MT Burleson said that MT. Tawney would have his Endorsement for the governorship of the canal zone or fer any other post within the gift of the president where his abilities might find their outlet.
 Tt was a calamity when MT. Taw- ney was defeated for renomination, " said Mir. Burleson. Tt was not so much calamity to his district or to Sldlc iO ile NUOle country al large. l venture to say that al though Mir. Tawney has always been a partisan, regular Republican. and steadfast party man. the gen. eral appreciation of his services is is such among members of the house Republicans and Democrats-that could his renomination be accomplish ed by that body he would be return ed for life by unanimous consent.
 "I think the greatest tribute that can be paid MT. Tawney arises from the fact that after eighteen years of service in the house, occupying high position, welding great influence. be- ing power in party councils and for a portion of that time heading committee which passes on ex- penditures of s500.000,O 900 a year, MT. Tawney leaves the house of represen tatives almost literally without a dol lar to his name No more honorable or complete eulOgy could be paid man in public life than that
 Other Democrats talked along the same line.

THE LAND OF GREAT
 OPPORTUNITY

"A firm of manufacturing jewel CTS tonight shipped to New York what is probably the most elaborate dinner service in Amerird II was made for former Senator w. A Clark, of Montana, and will be useC in his S7,00O,O00 mansion in Fif'h avenue, New York. It cost S12O, 1000 and contains nine hundred pieces Each piece was especially dc5igAet to harmonize with the Clark dining room, and the set includes service for rwenty-four persons.
 The order was gwen TWO years ago and special workmen and de signerS were employed. The de signs are extremely simple. with the exception of an elaborale mono gram of the owner. All of tho pieces are lined with gold and are very heavy. from Chica- go.
 William Andrews Clark was born near Connellsville, in Pennsylvania, and received his education in the country schools. His early activ- ities in the West were varied He taught school in a section where erudition was not prerequisite to what was considered by the com munity fitness for the work, and he swung a pick in the mines where good deal of braWn was required and where the pay was S1.25 a day.
 Concerning the taste displayed in the architectural design and interior decoration of the Clark palace opin- ions differ but that it represents an outlay equaled by few of the pal aces of the greatest potentates is undeniable. When the house was in course of construction there was a disagreement between the contractor and the concern that furnished brass fittings, MT. Clark ordered the pur- chase of the brass works" and put his own employees to work turning out the required articles. Nothing in the way of cost was allowed to interfere with the progress of con- struction. The silent gentleman from Montana" understandable and unconsidered by his colleagues, rather insignificant in personal ap- pearance, and without the evidences of intellectual breadth or vigor, put tering with his private papers at the desk in the Senate chamber, which he seemed to use as the private office of MT. Clark, magnate, rather than the seat of MT. Clark, serving in official capacity, was in a hurry to have his home completed. He would hardly miss a million of added expenses, although noted for petty economies in the routine of daily life.
 From $125 behind a pick in quartz mine to the proprietorship of $7,000,000 mansion in Fifth avenue is climb up the ladder that would dazzle successful 'self-made" men in the older countries. In this land of opportunity man some times becomes millionaire before he learns to distin- guish between the functions of his knife and fork. He knows E'l- rope like book" without being sure whether it was a Boticelli or a Chianti that he liked in Italy. He is sneered at for being newly rich, and sometimes his new riches pave his way to political preferment more easily than to social prestige But country in which there are so many chances for the requirement of riches, and in which nearly every body who amounts to anything save Dr. Mary Walker-was once a poor boy, is a great country for young men to emigrate to if they happen not to be born within it's boundaries.

FOR LONGER TERM.
City Council May Seek &c Name up.
pomtive Officers for Three-Year Term.

A movement is being started to have
the Common Council pass an ordinance
to provide for a longer tenure of Office
for the appointive officers of the city
especially the City Attorney and the
City Engineer. The movement has been
discussed with a number of the mem
bers Of the council and it is known
that it meets with some favor. There
is some question as to the legal rights
of the council to elect these officials
for period of more than one year but
many of the aldermen believe that the
city would secure better service if the
terms of these officials were for two or
three years. The officials interested see
a precedent in the fact that the Board
Of Education has offered three year
contract to Superintendent of Schools,
Mary D. Bradford but attorneys assert
that there is statuatory provision Civ
ing Boards of Education the right to
fix the term of a superintendent so long
as the term does not exceed three years.
It is probable that this matter will
be brought before the council within a
short time.

from the sale of nonresident fishing
licenses. In this county alone 1900
licenses were sold, 1852 of this num-
Der having been personally sold by the
deputy game warden. 1t will be seen
that Kenosha county paid more than
one-tenth of the licenses taken out and
that she received less than one three
hundredths of the fish sent out by the
commission. The protest is made by
the Kenosha county men on account of
the fact that the report shows that
millions of fish were sent to northern
counties of the state where few lieens-
es were issued and these men hold that
Kenosha county is entitled to much
better treatment on the part of the fish
and game commission 1t is certain
that a strong personal protest will be
made against the work of the commits
sion before the legislative commission
with view Of having the lakes Of
this county taken care of in future
years.

CHRISTMAS SEAL SALE.
More Than Three Million and Quarter
Disposed Of IN Wisconsin.

Estimates made by the Wisconsin,
Anti-Tuberculosis association are that
more than 3,250,000 Christmas seals
were sold during the recent campaign.
Torty-six out Of possible AIS towns
have reported and paid for $2,093.71
worth Of seals as against $1,275.74 last
year. The apparent gain is cut down,
however, because larger number of
towns participated this year than last.
Out of possible 400 rural schools 101
have reported cash sales of 1891 %.
Partial returns of Milwaukee cash are
$3T33.l5 and may reach $4,000. The
actual cash received by the association
up to last week was $4,000,
"What will be done with this mon.
ey' is a question frequently asked.
Many people do not understand why the
association does not spend this fund on
patients who have the disease instead
Of on the source Of the trouble.
There are at least 10000 cases Of con-
sumption in Wisconsin, today. If the
association had spent last years fund
Of $4,000 in relief work it would not
even scratch the surface. IF the asso-
citation had $4,000 a year to spend,
each case could receive only So, which
would do the patient no good worth
mentioning and would do absolutely
nothing toward preventing the disease.
These figures take no account of the
amount it would require to distribute
the $4,000 equally among the 10000
patients. The purpose of the assoeia-
ton is to root out the cause of the dis
ease rather than to try to relieve the
effects Of it.

I. NJ. Purtell, State Fire Mar
shall, Wants the State to
Have a Building Law
LIMIT RIGHTS OF COUNCILS

/ That legislation should be passed
! by the state limiting the right Of mu-
nicipal common councils to issue build
| ing permits and that a general state
building law be passed and rigidly en-
forced are two of the main features
Of State Fire Marshal r. M. Purtell S
fourth annual report submitted to Gov.
McGovern on Monday.
According to the state official, the
city councils are in the habit Of en-
acting rigid building legislation and
then evading its provisions by issuing
special permits.
| For this reason and in view of the
enormous damage done yearly by fires.
the marshal recommends that the state
regulate the building laws.
Among ether features Of the report
is the statement that most of the fires
are the result of criminal careIessness
and neglect and that rigid enforce
ment of the laws would eliminate the
majority Of the fires
While practically the same amount
OF property was affected by fires in
1910 as in 1909, $4,000, 900, the loss
last year was 100000 less than in
1909, was another statement of the
report. This would tend to show an
Improvement in fire fighting methods
Even though this is an Improvement
comparison on a basis of population
with foreign countries shows that Wis.
consin has ten times the number of
fires than most countries of Europe.
At means of lessening the ANIMAL
fire toll, the marshall suggests that
courses of instruction in the proven
tion of fires be instituted in all schools
and also suggests a general building
law to snpereede the various building
ordinances passed by the cities.
That the present laws are being en-.
forced is shown by the fact that the
department has succeeded in sendino
FIVE offenders to state prison for vio-
lating the state statutes in regard to
fires, one to the house of correction
four to insane asylums, two cases are
now pending in one of which the ac-
cused has been bound over to the Cir
cult court, five eases are being investi,
gated while one suspect is fugitive
from justice.

GOES TO WAUKEGAN.
Peter Breen to Take Kenosha Team of
Last Year to Waukegan This Season.

Waukegan is to have good base
ball team this year and Peter Breen
who for many years was manager of the
Kenosha base ball team will be in
charge of it. The team will be made
up of the players who formerly played
in Kenosha. Breen has taken lease
on the base ball field and picnic grounds
at Waukegan and is planning to open
the season there ON Easter Sunday. It
is probable that the teams will be allied
with one Of the semi-professional
leagues in Chicago. The fact that all
Of the Kenosha players will go to Wau-
kegan will leave the Kenosha fans
open to organize an entirely new team.

sport in the county will be sent to
Madison to appear before the proper
committee of the Legislature to demand
better treatment for Kenosha county.
The report of the department published
on Wednesday showed that in the year
1910, $4,000 wall-eyed pike fry were
placed in the inland lakes of Kenosha
county and that during the same time
800 black bass fngerlings reached the
various lakes. The resort keeper de-
clare that this must be an error as
they have no knowledge of the fish
being planted in any of the lakes.
Fred Shotliffe at sehennington admits
that during the year there was received
at Silver Lake thirty-six fngerlings
from the Government Hatchery at
Quincy, H., but this is all the fish that
have been accounted for in the county.
The letters protesting were sent to
Deputy Game Warden Michael Kleist
and he forwarded tAem to Madiosn at
the same time joining with the others
in the complaint of the treatment ac-
corded Kenosha county lakes. In 1909
according to the report of the COM
mission the Kenosha county lakes were
not stocked with fish and in that year
the report shows that the department
sent out a total of 151o65, 800 fish.
During the year 1910 the total number
Of fish sent out was 121, 864,69 and of
this number according to the report
there were $4,000 sent to the lakes in
this county. The report Of director
Nevins states that during the year just
closed total of $4,000 was received

There is always conservative ele-
ment among school patrons which op-
poses any radical changes in policy
or methods in the schools but up to
a certain point the Judgment of the
superintendent, principals, and teach
ers should be given great weight by

Vatlons are under consideration. AT
ter all, they are the ones who will be
'heid responsible for results and they
may be excused for wanting to do their
own work in their own way.

were a manicure set. seamstress'
