PIONEER LAKE VESSEL BURNS
Funeral of Steamer Sheboygan Is
Held With Ceremonies.

MANITOWOC, WIS. After
forty-five years of service on Lake
Michigan, the Goodrich line steamer
Sheboygan, the first boat built by that
company, was towed mile north of
the harbor piers and burned amid
great ceremonies. President Goodrich,
General Manager Thorp and party
from Chicago were here for the "fu
neral of their pioneer craft.
The tug Arctic of the same fleet,
which had towed the Sheboygan in
and out of the harbor for years, took
the boat to its final resting place. AS
it left the dock pulling the old craft
every whistle in the city, from factory,
locomotive and ship, blew a farewell
OF three long and a short blast, to
which the tug answered.

Traps the Robbers.

In Copenhagen bank is an in
genious contrivance for capturing rob-
bers that was devised by one of the
clerks. An electric contact is placed
behind the bank counter, and if the
clerks tread on it the main door from
the street to the entrance hall is closed
and locked. If the clerks again tread
upon the contact the door between the
entrance hall and the Office is locked.
Thus if the robbers should arrive and
summon the clerks to hold up their
hands the clerks obey, tread upon the
contact and the main door is locked.
The robbers are allowed to take the
money, but when they desire to leave
they find that the main door is shut
and locked, and when they try to re-
turn they find the second door also
locked, and they are trapped until the
police arrive.

WANT TO HEAR KNOCKERS
Professors at University of Wisconsin
Seek Student Criticism.

MADISON, WIS. = The worm
has turned, Every dog has his day.
The millennium has come for certain
type of student at the University of
Wisconsin whose emblem is the ham,
mer. Every upper classman at the
Badger school will consider it not only
a privilege but a duty to freely emu
merate his grievances. This is due to
the efforts of the committee in charge
Of the university survey. AS each up
per classman was registered this fall,
he was given a card on which were all
sorts of questions to be answered.
There is space enough on the back of
the card to hold a 500 word tale of
woe.
1t is the purpose of the survey to
get criticism from every angle, and
the students have been called upon
tc make suggestions and comments
freely. Some of the questions asked by
the cards are: Whether or not the
work in the different colleges of the
university is too hard or too easy;
whether the system of faculty advisers
is adequate whether or not students
are forced to take certain courses
against their inclination because they
GILL out the schedule"
