The modification which the demo
 cratic members of the rules committee today agreed 10 insert in the Pujo reso- lution is that the committee on bank ing and currency be also directed to inquire into matters touched upon in House resolution No 405. as may come within their Jurisdiction" House reso- lution No. 405 is the Henry resolution which was turned down in the caucus Though the resolution to be reported to the House tomorrow will contain no specific mention of the Henry allega- tions of the power of the money trust" reference to his charges In the resolution hGs done much to smooth over the party quarrel although the rules committee chairman is still dis appointed because the inquiry was not referred to a special committee.

Henry Will Make Speech

Mr Henry intends to refer to the points in his resolution in speech, calling attention to the charges that the management of the finances of the many great indusfriai organfzatfons, blanks and railroads arc controlled by a few groups of New York firlancfers, that these groups dominate the New York stock exchange and the clearing g house and have the financial affairs of the country generally within their grasp.
 The same subject will be considered also in the Senate tomorrow before the Interstate commerce committee when Samuel Untermyer of New York, who made the original charges before the House rules committee, will appear to discuss the subject in connection with a general trust investigation.

CHILDREN MAY
Be ARRESTED

At the last council meeting there
was a resolution passed by the city
council which reads as follows: at
hall be unlawful to modest, tampeI
with or destroy any tree, fountain,
flower bed or seat in park or public
playground in the city and fixing the
penalty for such misdemeanor at not
more than $50 nor more than 80 days
imprisonment in the county JAIL"
It had become necessary to take
some action as the park fountain was
being used as a constant play and
dumping place for the children be-
tween the ages of and 25 years, often
times throwing water which rendered
it impossible to get drink without get
ting wet and the fountain has been an
eye-sore to the public and some people
have criticised and ridiculed the jani-
tor, forgetting perhaps that their own
children were the cause of it. There
fore the city council has taken steps to
prevent this nuisance and it is expect
ed to make an example of some unless
this is stopped.

DRINKS BOOZE AND
VISITS GREENFIELD

Saturday night the fire alarm police
call was sent in by residents of
Greenfield who were being de-
tanned from their slumbers by a
drunken stranger. The man was of
Swedish nationality and was seen
in Chenille early in the evening
About 8 o'clock he crawled into hog
pasture between the Fry and Lucht
farms in Greenfield and soon the whole
neighborhood was aroused by his
cries and queer actions. When the
alarm was turned in it was thought
that the man was crazy and b ad
wandered from Baraboo. Officer But
terfield went after the Swede and
brought him to the county Jail where
be remained until this afternoon when
he was brought before Justice Halsted.
The foreigner appeared to be in
great pain Saturday night which was
probably an aftermath of an excessive
amount of barley juice. On his journey
nto the country he became weary and
shed his coat and hat which were
found Sunday morning.

PONY MAKES KICK
BREAKS BOYS LEG

A correspondent of the News near
Lime Ridge writes that Friday was
an exciting day in that vicinity. IL.
Schallon and son, Huen, and daugh-
ter, Mrs. George Readle, were on their
way to Reedsburg with their ponies
when they met sheriff Meyers with
his auto, and it somewhat frightened
the horses. AS they neared the Glossy
schoolhouse some thing was wrong
with his harness and the boy got out
to fix it when one of the horses
kicked him breaking his leg twice
between the knee and hip. The team
then ran away, breaking the buggy to
slivers and throwing Mr.. Schallon and
daughter out. Mr.. Schallon came
near having broken arm besides
other bruises while his daughter got
away without being hurt at all. Doc
tors hurried to the scene while sheriff
Meyer with his auto assisted the in

WISCONSIN STATE
FAIR IN MILWAUKEE,

Secretary j. G.. Mackenzie of the
state board of agriculture is receiving
an unusual number of inquiries re-
garding exhibits in the educational
department at the state fair. Through
out the entire state this year much
more interest is shown in the educa-
tional feature than ever before.
The enthusiasm is general, and the
inquiries cover the entire range Of edu-
cational institutions from normal in
stitutes down to the smallest and
most secluded district schools of the
rural sections of the state. County and
city superintendent already are max
ing preparations for displays. Country
and city children inquire regarding
conditions for the individual pupil ex-
hibits. The increased interest on the
part of the city children is marked.
The town boy evidently has learned
that the fair is not entirely for his
country cousin and that he need not
attend merely to enjoy himself as
spectator.
Liberal prizes are offered and the
classes are so arranged that competi-
ton will be fair for all schools and
pupils of the state. Certain divisions
are open to competition for all exhibit
tors, in collective displays and indivi-
dually. Others are classified by the
grade and location of the schools,
whether in the city or the country.
There are special classes for normal
school and county exhibits, also for
city high and graded school displays.
Agriculture exhibits are given espec-
ial attention in the rural school dis
plays. Exhibits of handiwork espec-
tally are solicited.

Tuesday evening Mrs. w. 7. Cass
got a bad fright while gathering eggs.
She reached into keg where the
hens nested and where "setting" hen

New Boston-New York Water Route. i.

NtW bOsIOn-NeW 1Ork water Route. j.
The Eastern Steamship Corporation
started the service of its all-the-way- by
water route to New York on June 10,
when the great steel steamships Massa-
chusetts and Bunker Hill were placed in
service for the season.
The Massachusetts made the initial trip
from Boston on the date named. Since
last season these great ships have had
about 100000 expended upon them for
equipment and Encouragement of their
passenger carrying facilities.
The changes involve provision for the
use of oil instead OF coal as fuel; for an
enlarged and improved main deck dining
room; hurricane deck cafe and the addi-
tion OF many attractive staterooms. All of
the inside staterooms have been equipped
with electric fans, this provision being a
in service herea bouts.
Another feature which will add greatly
to the attractiveness of these beautiful!
ships is the fact that they appear in a
summer suit of white. They have hereto
fore been painted black.
These splendid ships are more than ever
representative types of modern coastwise
craft, and most successful season is pre-
dieted for them, as they will surely appeal
to the army of discriminating travellers
from Boston destined for New York and
points beyond.
