THE PROFESSOR
DESIGNED To
START A SHOW

r. Travers Allen, who was in court
at Portage and Madison being one of
the stars in which Reedsburg girl
played role, is again getting free
testimonials. A report from La Crosse
reads as follows:
1t was fearful but happy meeting
between father and daughter IN the
Northwestern hotel when pretty
Lydie Nelson was clasped in the arms
of S. w. Nelson of st. Paul.
"Oh, L am so glad you came," the
slender dark eyed girl cried, 81 was
so afraid of that man, Allen. He
threatened to kill me if I didn't do
the wicked act he commanded me to do
and when I wouldn't and ran away, I
kept thinking that he might carry out
his threat. He seems to possess hyp-
motto power and it was a struggle to
break from his influence. The police
and the others have been very kind to
nae when l asked for help, but want
to 60 home.o
ats all right, little GIRL" was the
husky reply, ''you are safe now and
that man will be punished You come
back to your home and the law will
take care of him."
Signs 200 Bond.
Mr.. Nelson, well-to-do contractor
and builder of st. Paul, arrived in La
Crosse Friday in response to the mes
sage sent by the police. After signing
ST. 600 bond in county court insuring
his daughters appearance at the Octo-
Der term of circuit court as witness
against Allen, he and his daughter de-
parted for st. Paul on the noon train.
"Prof." K. Travers Allen, who was
bound over to circuit court by u Judge
g. l.. Baldwin on charge of inticing
Miss Nelson from her home in ST..
Paul with the pretense that he wished
to employ her as leading lady in a
theatrical company, stayed in the
county Jail being unable to furnish the
So coo bail decided upon by the
court.
District Attorney James Thompson
in closing his argument to the court
said: "Allen threatened to kill Miss
Nelson if she did not sign this agree
ment to act as his wife. He even
asked her to be his wife for one day. L
consider Allen one of the most dangel-
GUS men in the community"
A. q. Wolfe, attorney for Allen,
said: "Mr. Allen acted in good faith
with the girls. He intended to start
the show. The fact that he was willing
to spend considerable money on the
project proves this. The fact that he
told her she had to be-. his wife for a
year proves nothing. She did not have
to submit to this. No such agreement
was in the contract
1t is claimed Allen had engaged two
other girls besides Miss Nelson as
s'leading lady" and was in corresponds
ence with a dozen or two stagestruck
damsels.

ing of Block, the catching aud throw
ing of Macdonald and the hitting of
FrenZ.
The score would Indicate. that the
game was very close, but it really
would not have been as close except
for the bad luck on the part of the
Sluggers, as the visitors three runs
were practically given to them, and
the Sluggers lost several opportunities
to score additional runs by poor judg-
ment on the bases and by inability to
hit when hits would have counted
runs. In the eighth inning the Slug
gers had the bases full, with no one
out. and yet could not score run.

MUNICIPAL STEAM HEATING PLANT
Consulting Engineer Jaekson's
Exhaustive Report Submitted
to Council At Last Nights
Meeting.

For some time the question Of
utilizing the exhaust steam from our
electric light and water works plant by
installing a municipal steam heating
system has been discussed pro and
con. The question of its feasibility
was finally referred to Earle D. jack
son of St. Paul, the City's consulting
engineer and after careful investiga-
ton he has prepared lengthy report
favorable to the project which was
submitted to the city council at their
regular monthly meeting last night
The engineers report is based upon
q system that will for the present
serve only three business blocks on
Minnesota Street, but built large
enough so that it can be extended If it
should become necessary to do so.
Such a plant complete with wood
casing is estimated to cost Sl3, 900 and
with concrete casing $4,000. This
estimate does not include the cost of
making the connections with the
owners property. This expense would
have to be borne by the owner him
self.
The engineer in his report says
correctly that the advisabilitv OF To-
stalling q district steam heating
system depends upon two consider
ations: namely, the benefit to be-
derived to the tax payers Of the entire
city and the convenience, better service
and greater cleanliness enuring to
tho business section.
Assuming that lS, 900 square feet of
radiation would be connected up
within period Of two years without
extending the mains, and there ought
Ito be no trouble IN accomplishing
this, he estimates the net revenue as
follows:
GROSS RECEIPTS:
Is. 600 50. feet Of radiation at $3.50 per So foot
per season ............ ...."$5, 10000
EXPENSES:
Coal for live steam.... ............ $t.2o0.OO
Incidental expenseslestlmateO) A4UVo
Interest at $50 plus deprecia- .s--.
ton at $50 on Sl6,O0O.....~.: $4,000 s3'40OoC
Estimated yearly surplus. 10000
Expressing the above proposition
in another manner, In accordance
with the report of the Electric Light
Department.;
Receipts as before ".......H 4OOVV
EXPENSES:
Coal for live steam. $I2SC.OO
Incidental expenses estimated) 1900
Interest at SO on $l6,OOO.0e.... SEQ 90 $4,000
Balance for depre citation. .......... .Oe
This is equivalent to 1859 on the
investment Of GIG, O0O.0o, or in other
words, the entire heating system WOULD
pay for itself in 5.5 years. This is
practically twice the return on the
investment as shown by the Electric
Light plant averaged over the last few
years. 49, .,..,,
The revenue 40 estimated IL bases
upon an income Of 30 cents per square
foot of direct radiation per seasons
and this is certainly figured sufficient

dowo to defeat the New Ulm quint but
the Tracy boys failed to distinguish
themselves in just that way - the
New Ulm boys we're too fast and too
we'll drilled in team work for the
visitors altho the latter played good
clean game. Their trouble lay 10 the
fact that they were not able to make
field goals.
Cordes and Helm of New Ulm played
good, aggressive game, Cordes
making six goals in the first half and
five in the second. Helm at guard
worked up eve baskets to his credit.
he is the best man on the team to
work the ball under the basket.
For Tracy, kahl and McElvan
starred, making all the points. Nc
El7an made two field goals and Kahl
the remainder on free throws.
Stub Moriarity and Adolph Amann,
the two forwards on the New Ulm
team, were unable to get more than
four baskets each. being very closely
guarded by Curtiss and Dalton.
Campbell of Tracy acted as referee
and Prof. p. K. Cesander as umpire.
