Dear Mother, Father, Brothers and
Sisters: Peace be unto you. Have you
perfect peace without alloy in your
hearts day and night If not turn thy
burdens into praise. Let thy thanks

never sing, Let the JOY that God inn
parts be expressed by praise. 1t may
reach some weary heart with blessing.
Sing with JOY Of heart unto your Lord
and he will glorify and all your burdens
roll away. Your troubles will cease and

God and you will be admitted to Bethel's
glorious Heavenly visions, of which-I
cannot teach 1t must be the Holy
Ghost, the promise of God to the obe-
dent. He teaches and comforts all
those who will let him into their hearts
and give themselves unto his control.
Love, love; wondrous love. 0, keep
me dear Saviour, in thy precious love.
Do you love Jesus? II so, You have

DiETZ CASE TO HIGH COURT
Arrangements to Be Made at Lawyers
Meeting for Appeal in Behalf of
Cameron Dam Defender.

Fond du Lac.-A conference held
here between the attorneys in the
Dietz case resulted in an agreement
to appear before Judge A. Ii Reid
at Wausau on Nov. % to reach a
final agreement of exceptions to be
embraced in the bill to be filed with
the supreme court by the defense.
1t was found, it is said, among
other things that of the 1900 pages
of testimony in the Dietz murder
trial, when the defender of Cameron
dam was tried for the killing Of
Deputy Sheriff Oscar Harp, at least
900 includes evidence absolutely i'm
material to the case. This evidence,
according to Maurice McKenna of
this city, who represents Dietz, re-
lates to some fifteen or twenty other
offenses Dietz is alleged to have COM
mitted.
The testimony, according to Mr..
McKenna, shows that Dietz, who con-
Quoted his own case, failed in scores
of instances to take the proper eX-
ceptions.
The defense wants the bill! of ex-
ceptions to show certain questions Of
law which Mr.. Dietz did not ask at
the trial by reason of his lack of
knowledge of legal procedure

RECALL OTHER BAD STORMS
Weather Bureau Records Show Rock
County Cyclone as Fourth That
Has Devastated Wisconsin.

Madison. to the rec
University of Wisconsin there have
been three disastrous tornadoes, in
which lives were lost in Wisconsin,
previous to the one near GAINESVILLE.
There are also others of a more re-
mote date which are not registered.
On July z, 1877, the little village
of Pensaukee, Oconto county, was to-
tally destroyed by a tornado which
passed through the center of the
town. Eight persons were killed and
about fifty severely injured. Nearly
all the houses and Outbuildings in
the village were leveled and the loss
to live stock and crops was large.
At Racine on May IS, 1888, a por-
ton of the city was destroyed by a
tornado and storm in which twenty
five persons lost their lives and 100
were injured. The property loss
amounted to about 100000.
BY far the greatest damage that
was felt by any part of Wisconsin
through a wind storm was in New
Richmond, when, on June 13, thirty
three persons were instantly killed
and within a week seven more had
died as the effects of the storm
which all but wiped that village off
the map.

MOTHER MAY RECOVER HOME
BUT LEGISLATIVE ACTION WILL
BE NECESSARY.
Wisconsin Woman Surrendered Dwell.

Who Fled.

Milwaukee, Nov. 16.-The machin-
cry OF the state legislature must be
set in motion in order that the home
OF Mrs. Mary Brown, a charwoman.
working in the Northwestern depot
may be saved, after she surrenders II
to procure liberty for her burglar son.
Joseph Brown robbed the University
club while working as a waiter. He
was arrested and confessed. When
bail was fixed at $1,000, the mother
mortgaged her home and appeared ia
the jail with the money Brown was
released, disappeared and after a year
the bail was declared forfeited
After being a fugitive two years.
Brown heard through a friend. that
the mortgage was due and his mother
was to be turned out of her home He
sent word to the sheriff that he was
coming back and asked him to see
that the mortgage was paid. He walk
ed into the sheriff's office a few days
later and gave himself up. He went
into court, pleaded guilty and was SEN
fenced to three years in the house of
correction, which is situated a few
blocks from his mothers home
The court ordered the return of the
bail money, but the county clerk had
RENTED it to the state a year ago.
District Attorney label and Browns
lawyer volunteered to get the money
and sent the records in the case to
Attorney Bancroft. An opinion was
received from that official that the
state cannot return the money and
that an act of the legislature is neces-
sary.
A bill is being prepared by the dis
trict attorney, and with the mortgage
extended to cover the period of wait
ing, the mother will wait in her home
for the release of her son. Brown is
p, and young woman who was &C
cused of aiding in the robbery and
was later exonerated, will stand by
him also.

Device May Make Aeroplane
Deadly Machine.
1t Has Been Predicted That 1t Would
Make the Mightiest Destructive
Force Known to Modern
Warfare.

New York.-Ever since the aero
plane has been developed into prac-
teal flying machine it has been pre-
dicted that it would be the mtghtlest
destructive force known to modern
warfare. But not until practical
gun for use on aeroplanes had been
built, it was realized, would the power
OF the aeroplane as an aggressive fac
tor in war be recognized.
This gun has now been invented
and is at present being tested by its
designer, Lieut.. Riley =. Scott. West
Pointer and expert mathematician
who has spent years of time in trying
to solve the problems that would pro-
duce perfectly accurate bomb hurl-
ing apparatus.
AS soon as men learned how to op-
crate flying machine they began to
practice, throwing imitation bombs at
objects hundreds OF feet below them

act scale Of a dreadnaught, have been
Whitewashed on aviation fields and
the aviators have thrown oranges at
these targets to see how nearly they
could come to hitting the make be-
lieve warships in vital spot.
Glenn H. Curtiss, in July year ago,
made some OF the first bomb throwing
tests. A floating target in the shape
of q battleship was constructed on
Lake Keuka Hammondsport. N. Y. In

comes simple matter. The accuracy
a gunner acquires in the navy or
army can now also be put into opera
ton from an aeroplane. Heretofore
aviators have been laughed at because
they either aimed BADLY or their aim
was spoiled by the speed at which the
aeroplane was travelling through the
air. or the falling bomb would be de-
fiected by strong wind current.

GUN SHOOTS BOMBS

tenant Scott has constructed his aero
plane gun in such a way that the
speed OF the machine, the velocity OF
the wind and the distance from the
earth are all calculated automatically
and with reasonable accuracy. In ap-
pearance the Scott gun resembles
somewhat a ships compass.
The aviator must first sight the OBJ
ject at which he intends to fire
through a telescope that is attached
to the gun. In order to attain the nee
sary accuracy when dropping the
bombs 1t is of first Importance for the
gunner to know the speed at which he
is travelling and the height from the
ground. The speed is determined by
the use of a stop watch attached to
the gun in conjunction with the tele-
scope. In addition tables have been
prepared to be used by the aviator in
making his measurements.
The gun is to be tested from riot

gun. One of the interesting features
of the gun is that no conclusion will
be felt by the shooting of the projec-
tile. 1t is simply dropped at the
proper instant and finds its way to
earth by itself.
Mr.. Moisant is very much interested
in the new gun, and in aviation circles
it is generally understood why he
should be. His brother. John Moisant,
it has often been said, took up flying
with the object of using the aeroplane
in war. President Zelaya of Nicaragua
encouraged him to take up aviation
with that very definite purpose.

WORKERS LAW IS
UPHELD BY COURT
AN OPINION BY CHEF JUSTICE
WiNSIOW DECLARES CON-
PENSATlON ACT VALID.
REVERSES PRIOR DECISION
Judgment OF Circuit Court Is Set
Aside by States Highest Tribunal
Associates Agree Unanimously
With Chief Justices Opinion.

Madison.-The supreme court has
handed down an opinion which re-
verses the decision Of the lower court
and UNFOLDING the constituticnality
OF the wofkmen's compensation act,
as passed by the last legislature This
opinion was signed by all the men,
bers OF the court and written by
Chief Justice Winslow
The opinion first discusses i'll gen.
eral the principles of the constitu-
tionality of laws, and then takes up
the objection that the law is against
public policy, declaring that it is not.
The next objection to receive atten-
tion in the opinion is, that the act
vests judicial power in the commits
sion. Judge Winslow concludes that
it does not
The opinion then discusses the
point that the act abolishes the de-
lenses of assumption of risk and neg
ligence of cO-employe. Judge Wins
low concludes that the legislature
has the power to abolish these two
defenses
The court does not discuss the
minor points and objections brought
out in the hearing but says that if
the act can be found to be partially
unconstitutional, through some of it's
provisions, that these are not con-
sidered sufficient to destroy the
whole act.
The suit was originally brought by
Edward BOrgnis, superintendent of
the pattern shop of the Falk COM
pany, Milwaukee, who is under con-
tract to work for this company a
certain number of years at a stated
salary. Frank II. Schumacher, Mil
waukee, has a son, Arthur, who is an
apprentice with the same company
and also under contract to remain
for stated period at a certain wage
These two combined and brought suit
to restrain the Falk company from
coming under the provisions OF the
wofkmen's compensation act, be-
cause, they argued, it would destroy
their contracts.

ments showing the export surplus in
the United States to be $4,000, 900
bushels less than at the correspond
ing time a year ago, the wheat market
today gave evidence of decided
strength. In addition signs pointed
to smaller receipts both at winter
wheat centers and in the Northwest.
Light arrivals at Liverpool and pre-
dictiOns of rainy weather adverse to
harvesting in the northern portion Of
Argentine helped add to bullish sem
timent. The opening was to s02c
higher. May started at $1,000 to
$1.00a, a gain of @1 to 8, but later
reacted to 99sc.
The market soon rallied owing to
rains in Argentine. The close, how
ever, was easy with May at 99Sc@

Meager stocks and small receipts

being broken. The house, a new
barn and garage were smashed to
kindling wood.
At the home of George Schaffner,
near Hanover, six people almost mir
aculously escaped death. The house
was blown to pieces, and, although
there were three women and child
in it, none was seriously hurt. Mr..
Schaffner's mother, Mrs. Caroline
Schaffner, was thrown to the floor
and struck sewing machine. A
heavy beam rested upon the machine
and just over her head. Mrs. Schaff-
ner is "a years old. Mr.. Schaffner
and Mr.. Lehman were in the barn,
the building swept away, and al
though six horses were killed neither
Mr. Schaffner nor Mr.. Lehman re-
liam Douglas and his family was
also thrilling. The house was wrecked
and although six persons were in it
none was injured. Two of the daugh-
terS were upstairs when they heard
the cyclone coming. They started
downstairs but the door slammed
shut in their faces and locked. Fran
tically they rushed to the head Of the
stairs and threw themselves on the
floor, clinging to whatever they
could. The roof was lifted from over
their heads.
Two miles north of GAINESVILLE a
house and part of a barn were car
ried into Rock river All telephone
and telegraph poles in the path of
the cyclone were snapped off and
wires line the roads.
A meeting of citizens and business
men of GAINESVILLE was held and tenn
porary relief arrangements provided
for the victims of the tornado.
Many of the residents of the terri
tory visited by the tornado are worse
than destitute. They are not only
homeless but they are wounded. The
more fortunate farmers in the neigh
borhood took the victims of the storm
into their homes and cared for them,
but relief of this character can at the
best be but temporary, and pcrma-
nent buildings and other relief must
be provided, or about $50 persons
will perish.
The gas cOmpany's plant, which
furnished light for the towns of Mil
