The necessary outfit consists simply
Of small printing frame such as
photographers use and a quantity of
commercial blue print paper. The
leaves or ferns which are to be the
subjects of the lesson are pressed in
book for few days after gathering;
when thoroughly dry each specimen is
placed in the printing frame, covered
with piece Of blue print paper, yell
low side down, and the back of the
frame latched in place. The whole
is then exposed to strong sunlight I'M
til inspection shows the shadows to be
deeply bronzed; the print is then re-
moved and washed in several changes
of fresh water, when the exact image
of the Leaf, with all its delicate trac-
cry OF veins, will be found shown in
white upon blue ground.

OCCUPATION FOR
JAIL PRISONERS
Hereafter They Must Work but

MONEY GOES TO DEPENDENTS

Bill Has Passed the State Legislature
and Will Be Signed by the Govern

tors lnduieing in Politics.
Madison, Wis, May 27.-(SpeciaD.
The good old days of card playing
and a life of ease in the county iaiIs
of Wisconsin for minor offenders, in
Guiding Migrants, are a thing of the
past. The legislature has passed a
bill which Governor McGovern will
sign which will make life in jail de.
cidedly real and earnest.
The bill provides that prisoners
shall work, and that they shall be
paid for their services, the money to
be turned over to persons who may
be dependent upon them In the
event that there are no persons to
whom the money may be turned over,
the prisoners will be compelled to
work anyway.
1t has been a notorious fact that
many Of the county jails Of Wiscon-
sin because they knew that during
the winter months it meant a warm
place to sleep, fairly good board and
no work. In the past, few county
jails have maintained a system of la
Dor for prisoners. In the future,
however, there will be plenty to do.
Exhibits at Panama Show.
The assembly and the senate have
acted favorably upon a bill to ap-
propriate $4,000 for state exhibit
at the Panama exposition to be held
in San Francisco. In the senate the
bill was amended so that no member
of the present legislature shall be

said, innocently:
'That is only the chorus; the com.
mencement of the verse is, I am
thine.'"
At this the curate laughed heartily,
and the ladies are always very care
full now when talking about hymns.

permitted to serve on the exposition
commission. Senator Bosshard in
support of the amendment said that
the legislature is being severely criti-
cised for arranging what are consid-
cred by many as junketing trips for
legislators. There is another angle
to the introduction of the amendment,
which, it is claimed, was introduced
so that Governor McGovern would not
be able to pay off political debts to
any members of the present legis1a-
ture by making them to serve on the
commission.
Politics in Legislature.
Before the present legislature ad-
journs sine die Lieutenant Governor
Morris of La Crosse may make a for
nal announcement of his candidacy
for the governorship or the United
States senatorship.
The legislature has not been so
busy that it has not found time to
talk and play politics. The progress
sive La Toilette Republicans are in
dulging in politics in the old-fashion-
what they think of this or that man
for this or that office. Because of
his many years of active participation
in state government and because of
his following with the Republican par
ty, Mr. Morris looms across the poll
tical horizon as an exceptionally
strong candidate for any Office he may
seek. If there is a proper response
of sentiment Mr.. Morris will probably
be the La Toilette candidate for the
senate. If sentiment indicates that
the Republican leaders feel that Mr..
Morris can serve the best interests
of his party by running for the gov
ernorship, someone else will be
chosen to enter the campaign for the
senatorship against Governor Meow
ern. The Morris boom is crystallizing
and causing much talk.
In the event that Mr.. Morris runs
for the senate State Senator Otto
Bosshard of La Crosse, another
strong La Toilette man. may run for
governor.
The reactionary forces in the lower
house displayed unexpected strength
when the vote was announced on the
bill to repeal the second choice or
Mary Ann system in the primary.
The bill carried by a vote of AS to 46.
Opposition to Insurance Bills.
The opposition to all bills favored
by Insurance Commissioner Ekern
scored a decisive victory when the
assembly by vote of 81 to 35 killed

Scores Are Injured When Struc-

MANY WOMEN ARE VICTIMS
Accident Occurs During Celebration of
British Subjects at Long Beach,
CAL, and Is Followed by
Panic.

Long Beach, Cal, May 26.-Too
weak to uphold the burden of almost
10000 human beings assembled for
the festivities of British Empire
day." the land end of the big double
decked municipal pier in front of the
City Auditorium collapsed.
Hundreds of persons were plunged
down on the heads of other hundreds
crowded on the second deck. The
lower deck then gave way, and all
were dropped down a chute of shat
tered woodwork to the tide washed
sands twenty-five feet below.
Thirty-three Are Dead.
Thirty-three perons-mostly women
were killed by the shivered timbers,
impaled on big splinters or crushed
to death by the falling bodies of COM
panions and friends. Fifty more were
seriously injured, while hysteria and
paralyzing fright disabled score of
others.
The platform crumbled without
warning like a paper box and in an
other moment there was writhing
mass of humanity crushed beneath
the tons of splintered lumber. A
panic among the other 1000 specta-
tors followed and in the wild rush Of
safety many persons were trampled
on and seriously injured.
List of the Victims.
Following is list of the dead:
Mrs. Frank Matthews, David Black,
seven years old; Mrs. Dan Thomas,
Mrs. August Bartz, Mrs. Richard
George Dowle, Mrs. Cheshire, Mrs.

Mrs. Ada E. Ingraham, Mrs. Anna

A thousand or more persons had
crowded into the building close to the
stage and officers of the various cele-
bration committees and English So
cieties, which had participated in a
parade, had just assembled the rostrum
when the crash came.
MJork IF Raerua Ciou
Shrieks and cries from the specta-
tors inside started rush to see by
those outside the building. For some
time all efforts at rescue were futile.
The curious people were damned so
closely about the dead and injured un-
der the pier that the police could not
get to those who needed succor, and
flying wedges were organized.
When the Los Angeles officers ar
rived a Gordon was thrown about the
scene of the disaster and held off the
great throng.
A section of the auditorium which
went down in the crash and the debris
from it was added to the wreckage
that fell on top of the injured and the
dead
The victims were subjects or for
mer subjects of Great Britain, resi-
dent in southern California.
The dead were laid in the National
Guard armory, while the injured we're
hurried to various hospitals in this
city and Los Angeles.
