LAST NUMBER ON LYCEUM COURSE
ist, At Congregational Church
March 5

Thursday evening, March 5, is
the date for the last number Of this
seasons lyceum course. This enter
| tainment will be given by Miss jean
cite King, reader and monolOgist
of exceptional ability and all who fail
| to attend will miss a rare treat.
Jeanette King is recognized as one
Of Americas most brilliant and sue
ce3sful readers Her success is due
no SIS to her personality than to
her ability. Critics and press unite
in conceding her all the qualities req
usit, for the arsist-talent, grace,
beauty, an originality that is refresh
ing AID a versatility that is remark
ablo. Thus, nature, training and ex-
parience make her capable of swaying
an audience.
Mss Kings engagements have Ia
< II her rep atedly from coast to
coast and from lakes to gulf, and no
greater proofs of her artistic worth
can be had than her record of being
engaged to appear again and again,
giving as many as twelve recitals in
one city The following are few
Of the many cities in which she has
appeared from two to twelve times:
San Francisco, Philadelphia, Pitts
burg, Cincinnati Chicago, ST. Louis,
Detroit, ST. Petersburg, Florida, Lex
ington, KY, Valdosta, Ca, Montgom-
cry, Ala, Memphis, Tenn. This list
might be extended almost Indefinite
ly.
Miss King is constantly adding to
hcr repertoire, which embraces pro
grams for the most serious of liter
ary audiences, as we'll as popular pro-
grams.
Her manner of reciting an entire
play is unique and differs entirely
from that of any reader of the day.
Each scene, each exit and entrance,
is given so accurately, each charac-
ter is portrayed SO wildly, that the
persons become living, moving reali-
ties, and the entire production vivid
bit of life which invariably creates
the impression that one is actually
seeing the play

WiIful and Unlawful Destruction of
Wild Life
Deputy Warden.

The following is drawn from Dr.
Hornedy's book entitled, "Our Van
ishing Wild Life" The preservation
of animal and plant life and of the
general beauty of nature is one of
the foremost duties of the men and
women OF today. 1t is an imperative
duty, because it must be performed
at once for otherwise it will be too
late. Every possible means of preser-
vation-sentimenta educational and
egislative-must be employed
The present warning issues with no
uncertain language, because this
great battle for preservation and con-
servation cannot be won by gentle
tones, nor by appeals to the instincts
of those that have no sense of beau
ty or enjoyment of nature. 1t is nee
essary to sound a loud alarm, to pre-
sent the facts in very, strong lang
uage, backed up by irrefutable Stats
tics which tell no lies, to establish
the laws and enforce them.
1t is undeniable that the welfare
and happiness of our own and all flu
ture generations of Americans are at
stake in this battle for the preserva-
ton of nature and against the selfish
ness and the ignorance or the cruel
ty of her destroyers. The game of
North America does not belong
wholly and exclusively to the men
who KILL the other ninety-seven per
cent have vested rights in it, far
exceeding those of the three per cent.
Posterity has rights that no man can
ignore.
| am now going to ask both the
true sportsman and the people who
do not kill wild things to awake and
do their plain duty in protecting and
preserving the game and other wild
life which belongs partly to us, part
ly to those that come after us. Can
they be aroused before it is too late?.

NEW HIGH SCHOOL
SCHOOL BOARD THINKS ONE
SHOULD BE ERECTED THIS
YEAR
PRESENT QUARTERS CROWDED
Site Proposed BY Board is Northeast
CT the Courthouse

That Ladysmith has needed new
higschool for some time is well
known to every citizen of our city.
The need has become SO imperative
that the school board believes a new
building must be provided, if possible
before the beginning of the next
school year.
Every room is now crowded to the
utmost and various places have been
pressed into service as schoOl-rooms
that are very poorly fitted for the
purpose and are positively contrary to
legal requirements.
Three rooms have been improvised
in the highschool attic that are cold
and in other ways insanitary as well
as unsafe Two more rooms are locat-
ed in the basement of the same build
ing. The basement Of the first ward
school has been utilized for couple
of rooms and even the basement of
the public library has been usurped,
the kindergarten being located here,
although the place is far from ideal
for such a purpose.
Three grades are accommodated in
two rooms of the True building, Sec
ond floor, which, by the way, have
made very good rooms.
Conditions this year have been bad
enough as all are aware, but
the increase next year must be pro-
vided for. The school board has come
to the conclusion that a new high
school building should be erected this
wear and have been investigating the
matter carefully, seeking a suitable
site where the cost would not be
prohibitive.
After careful consideration Of ev-
cry possible location they have come
to the conclusion that the best site
available would be the four lots on
the north side of Lake-av. at the in
terscction Of that thoroughfare with
Fifth-st east. This site contains more
land than a city block and while near
the river this should prove no objec-
ton for a highschoOl
The residences of T. F. Armstrong,
o. R. Holt and A. J. Laidlaw occupy
three of the lots in the proposed plot
of ground; the other lot, owned by
John Alpine, being vacant. Before
making the matter public the school
board secured options on most OF this
property and approximate cost of the
site will be between S. 900 and $4,000,
which is considerably lower than any
other suitable site could be purchased
for. The board is not definitely tiled
up" to this site, however, and if
better one can be pointed out they
will be glad to be informed. They
want the matter thoroughly discussed
by the citizens and want to learn
their views on the question
The school board intends to call a
special meeting for the joint district
in the near future to consider the
proposition.
Plans are now being sought for a
building that will be adequate for the
city's needs for at least few years
to come. 1t would be the heighth of
folly for Ladysmith to build a high
school that would not anticipate to
some extent the city's growth. Such
mis- akes are very costly in the end.

MIXED TRAIN GOES IN DITCH
Eighteen Cars are Piled Up Near
Owen Tuesday.-No One Hurt

No. 9O2, the south bound mixed
train that goes through Ladysmith in
the afternoon, was wrecked at Black
river, about eight miles north of
Owen Tuesday, eighteen cars piling
up in the ditch. Fortunately, no one
was hurt, the wrecked cars being in
the middle of the train A broken
flange on one of the wheels caused
the accident. Most of the cars de-
rallied were loaded with coal.
The track was blocked by the
wreck and it was necessary to detour
trains via Prentice. No IS, the south
that way Tuesday night and No. II
came through the same way Wednes-
day morning. The track was cleared
Wednesday forenoon.
The wrecked train was in charge
of Conductor j. w. Saxton and En-
gineer Godfrey, both of Stevens Point
No. II run in hard luck Wednes-
day. In spite of hitting the high
spots wherever the track would per-
nit, (the twenty miles from Hawkins
to this city was reeled off in just
twenty minutes,) the detour so de-
layed the train that it did not reach
Ladysmith until about eight O'Clock
that morning Then to make things
worse, the engine went wrong some
how and another had to be sent from
ly pulled out of this city at about
10:3O
In it's account of the wreck the
Chippewa Falls Herald says:
The train consisted of freight cars
and two passenger coaches. 1t was
bowling along at % to 80 miles an
hour when a wheel flange broke on
a box car of bolts. This car jumped
the track and tore up the same for
800 feet which checked the speed
Then it went off and dragged seven
heavily loaded coal cars down the en-
bankment. After the coal cars came
q box car damned against the heavy
bridge timbers and saved the rest of
the cars from going into the ditch.
The two passenger coaches on the
rear were the only ones remaining on
the track. The passengers in the
coaches were rudely shaken and were
thrown around but not hurt. The en-
CINE and one box car broke away
from the wreck and crossed the
bridge in safety. The eleven passen-
gers were taken in the engine and
carried at once down to Owen with
but slight inconvenience.
The deep ditch beside the track
was filled with coal. One coal car
however trailed down the embank-
ment, landed on the top of the box
car, crossed over safely and settled
beyond next to the fence, remaining
perfectly upright and did not spill
200 pounds of coal.
The passengers are thankful that
the box car lodged against the heavy
bridge timbers or the whole train
would have tumbled down the high
