SEVENTEEN PASS BAR EXAM.

Over II per cent of the applicants
who took the bar examination at Madi-
son last week were successful accord
ing to the report of the state board OF
examiners. Some 80 men took the ex.
animation, II of this number success
fully meeting the requirements of the
test. One of those who passed is from
Mrnitowoc, Clarence Teitgen.
Mr. Teitgen is IA son of Mrs. Theo-
dore Teitgen. After graduating from
the South Side high school he took up
law, studying in the office of Judge
Cratic. In commenting upon Mr..
Teitgen's success in passing the ex-
animation Judge Cratic said:
"As Mr. Teitgen continued in his
work, and especially at the time he ap-
piled for admission to write, never
feared FOR a moment that he would fail.
Although only 2l years, and his first
writing, yet he has been such a stu
dent, with his strong health, his de-
termination, capacity to learn, his
honesty and integrity and his ability
to diiferentiate between good law and
bad law soon convinced me that his ef-
forts would be crowned with success.
He is logical and diplomatic and is
willing to work, and many times,
myself, was astonished TO see him
climbing the stairs as rapidly as he
was. have only words of praise, and
! hardly can find words to express my
feelings. | venture to say, if his health
continues, that you can look to Mr..
Teitgen in the near future for n repu-
tation as lawyer"
Mr.. Tcitgen viii probably locate in
this city.
Members Of the examining board are.

I, at . o'clock, p. M, "For transaction

plication for state aid and the Automo-
bile Club believes that action should
be taken by the county board to Sc
cure state funds. Under the law it
will be necessary for the board TO act
before September ] in order to make
application for state aid for next year

WATER SUPPLY TEST.

A water supply of nearly 100000
gallons daily may be developed for the
city water works plant.
This is the prediction of city officials
as result of the testing out of the
first of the nine new wells recently
sunk at the pumping station. A several
hour test of the one well Monday fail
ed to exhaust the supply and with a
suction pump, such as it is proposed to
install at the plant, it is believed that
the well will prove u bonanza 1t was
necessary to stop the engine for the
night and the start was made so late
that it was impossible to determine the
full worth of the WELL The test was
renewed Tuesday morning and the
well appears to he making good.
If the other wells develop anywhere
near the supply which it is believed
the first one tested will furnish, then
city officials says that the plant will
have a water supply that will be nearly
1000, 900 gallons daily and which will
be adequate for the needs OF the city
for many years to come and will furn-
ish an adequate supply in case of con-
flagration.
A traction engine is being used in
the pumping tests for the new wells
the water commission having secured
the use OF the engine from a farmer.
The tests will probably occupy most of
the week.
