The great essention for any girl

love for the wee folk, to be able to

child's nurse must not be a cynic.
She must know the importance OF lit
tie things to children, must know
that the molehils OF grown-ups are
the mountains of boys and girls. Now
adays the children's nurse must be a
comrade and companion as we'll as
mentor to her young charges, but the
latter role must never be over-empha.

PEAT MARSHES VALUABLE
Conservation Commission Reports
100000 Acres Of Fuel Product
Are Available in Wisconsin.

Madison-Wisconsin will soon find
ant source of fuel, is the predic-
ton made in the report of the state
conservation commission sent tic the
legislature. Estimates In the report
indicate that these marshes may in
the next half century yield cash re-
turn from $500 to $4,000 an acre.
According to the report OF the con-
servation commission about per
cent OF the total area of the state,
comprising nearly 100000 acres,
is marshy The investigation shows
that this land may be used for three
purposes. Ii can be drained and used
for the purposes of agriculture, or
it can be held until such time as
economic conditions will permit the
marketing of 100000 tons of
finished peat, or the land may be sub
merged and used as reservoirs for the
regulation of stream flow.
III the peat in the marshes is to
be used for fuel, the commission has
ascertained that an acre of peat one
foot thick will produce 200 tons of
peat fuel The compilations made
by the commission indicate that with
in few years this peat will be sold
at profit of from so cents to 81
a ton. In elaborate tables 1t is fig
ured that, allowing an interest
charge of s per cent and holding the
peat, the present value of an acre
of peat two feet thick would be $276.
The commission recommends that
the legislature change the present
drainage laws so as to reduce the
unnecessarily great expense now at
tendant upon the organization OF
drainage districts, that the legisla-
ture amend the constitution so that
the state retain the large marshes
1t already owns, which contain clean
peat suitable for fuel and other pur-
poses'

FAIR BOARD BILL
BRINGS HOT FIGHT
ASSEMBLYMAN SPOOR MAKES
STATEMENTS WHICH HE
LATER TAKES BACK"
ExTRAvAGANCE Is CHARGED
Provisions for New Managing Body
for Exhibit Are Ordered Engrossed
Alter Debate Brsting With Fiery
Speeches.

Madison. a fiery speech, in
officials to a turn, for sins Of omis-
sion and commission, Assemblyman
Newcomb Spoor succeeded in rescu-
ing mis- bill for a new state fair board
from slaughter. The bill came up
for indefinite postponement, having
been put over on a substitute amend
ment.
The assen.blyman charged the
state board of agriculture with gross
extravaganza. Former President
George McKerrow, he said, was a
'leech,' in that he had drawn about
$4,000 from the state. When call
ed on this proposition by Assembly
man Percy Sawyer, who asked for a
Dill of particulars. Mr. Spoor said
he would take it back"
Assemblyman Henry F. Kruger,
who is member of the state fair
board went after Mr.. Spoons state
ments and asked why he did not take
the report of the state board for
1912, instead of basing his charges
ON the former years, when there
were conflicts in the boards. Mr.
Kruger asserted that the woman
lobbyist" who was responsible for
the bill, had not made report as
matron of the state fair hospital, as
requiGed by the rules.
Assemblyman o. +. Roessler sup
ported Mr.. Spoons assertions that
the state fair board had been guilty
OF extravaganza. Mr.. Roessler was
formerly a member of the state
board of agriculture. At the end of
the debate the bill was ordered en-
crossed. 1t provides for a board Of
seven members, of which two shall
be women, to be selected by dele
gates from various agricultural and
horticultural and other societies in
the state These delegates are to
meet annuallr in the assembly and
elect members of the state board.

MOB MENACES ILLINOIS JAIL.
Infatuated Citizens Demand Lynchlng
Of Girls Assallant.

Salem, ILL.,, March 1.-THE jail at
Salem was guarded on Saturday by
four companies of militia. The state
troops were ordered out by Governor
Dunno in response to a message from
Sheriff Charles w. Purcell of Marion
county that he was unable alone to
cope with a situation arisen through
the arrest Of Frank Sullens. white. 81
years old, charged with an attack on
Dorothy. the fourteen-year-old daugh-
ter of Judge Charles Holt.
Miss Holt had attended a prayer
meeting and was accompanied within a
half block Of her home by friends
who turned her over to Sullens, who
lives near, to see her safely home.
Upon the very steps of her home
Sullens attacked and knocked her
senseless, dragged her to a slaughter
house mile west OF town. Upon re-
gaining consciousness she staggered
home and told her story.
The word passed rapidly and soon
officers were on Sullens' trail, captur.
ing him within a short distance from
the scene of his crime. and hurried
him to Jail before the crowd could
wreak vengeance on him.

ROBBERS GET GEMS VALUED
AT 100000 IN RAID
Thieves Dig Way Through Cellar and
Steal vaIuabies Locked in
Pawnshop Vault.

New York, March 18.-The biggest
robbery In this city since the looting
Of the Manhattan bank, more than
twenty-five years ago. was discovered
by the finding OF strange key In the
lock of cellar door at No 60 Ed
ridge street
The amount stolen is roughly esti'
mated to be between $250.000 and
100000. while q half million more in
jewels and negotiable bonds was not
taken. probably because the safe
blowers could not carry the plumber
away.
The place entered and robbed is
Martin Simons & Sons pawnshop at
"a Hester street. The property stolen
for the most part was diamonds and
iewelry set with diamonds.
In the southwest corner of the build,
Ing is safe vault. The walls are
brick "a inches thick. Railroad rails
close together cover the top Of the
vault. Inside wood and steel finished
the construction while great chilled
doors protected the front.
The part of the cellar used by a
tenement is separated from the pawn
shop cellar by partition wall was
protected by wires. THE men after
entering this basement climbed INTO a
coal bin and scraped away the coal
until they were three inches under the
wires and then made a hole that ad-
mitted a small man or boy or per
haps two of them.
This placed them in the pawnshop
cellar. BY standing on things In the
cellar the men cut hole about IA
inches square IN the floor Of the
pawnshop and they were then In the
store. A ladder gave them access to
the top Of the vault
The last girder of railroad iron sup
porting the roof of the vault is al,
most foot from the wall itself. The
two feet Of mortar and brick were
gone through with ease and the girder
moved aside. In the southeast corner
Of the vault hole was made evident
ly after several hours Of hard work.
This aperture Is nearly two feet
square The innter part of the vault
was cut away and the strong box
filled with jewels, bonds and cash val
ued at more than 100000 was open
to them.
