APPROPRIATIONS ARE PROVIDED
Annual Budget for the Care of Wards
Of the State Shows Large Appropria-
tions for Care Of the Insane and
Others Dependent on the State.

That the state board Of control has
In mind the construction of the new
southern Wisconsin home for the fee
BILE minded near Union Grove, just over
the Kenosha county line in Racine
county, within the near future is the
conclusion drawn from the report Of
the finance comittee, just submitted
to the legislature, in which an appropri-
alton of $4,000 for operation of the
institution for 1916 is allowed. By
the time the next legislature meets, it
will be time for such further appro-
priations as the opening Of the new
plant will warrant.
Today's estimates filed by the fin
ance committee for the support of the
various state institutions under the
board of controls supervision reduce
the last amounts given for the same in
stitutions by approximately three-quar-
ters of million dollars. Actual fig
ures on the total appropriations rec
commended are not available.
In the budget presented to the legis-
lature for the coming two years the
board of control asked for an aggre-
gate appropriation of $3,301, 703. In
the bill presented to the legislature by
the finance committee the estimates for
each institution are pared down in
many instances by a substantial a.
mount.
To attend to the general functions for
the board, there is annually appropri-
ated $4,000 as compared with $4,000
two years ago.

London, July 28.-Apparently deter
mined to demoralize the British fish
supply as much as possible, two Ger

north coast of Scotland and by shell
fire sunk nine trawlers-the Rosalyn,

In spite of a vigorous shell fire, the
crews of fishermen escaped without
injury, although the men of the Homo
ria and the Sutton drifted in their
open boats forty-fiye hours before be-
ing picked up.

New War Disease.

Physicians in Vienna recently have had their attention drawn to pe- culiar new disease among soldiers, known as nyctalopia, or night blind- ness. To the night blind the capacity to distinguish objects fails at twilight, and even on moonlight nights they are without the sense of sight. Sometimes men do not perceive that they are night blind until they stumble into holes or are similarly reminded of their failing. In some instances the disease became so virulent that it was regarded as an epidemic. Night blind ness comes principally to persons who are far sighted or near sighted. Over taxing the strength of body and mind is believed to be the principal cause.

Wonderful Invention.

The British war office has probably had it's fill of warlike inventions sub- mitted to 1t since August last, but one doubts if it has seen anything quite so wonderful as the machine of a Scotch shoemaker in 1764. Details of the instrument are sadly lacking in the newspapers of the period, which described it, but it was announced as enabling six men to do as much as whole regiment. Forty-four thou
 sand shots in two minutes was it's modest rate of fire, and by simply touching spring one could make it present harvest of bayonets" to the enemy. Further, it could be driven to pieces" in a moment if likely to be captured, and put together in minute and half when the danger was past.

Killed by Odd Combination.

Matthew Grissom, solicitor for life insurance company at Piggott, Ariz., was burned to death in peculiar way. He had set steel trap for rat, and the night before neighbours dog was shut up in the room by accident and was caught in the trap. The dog up set can of gasoline, saturating the atmosphere of the room with gasoline fumes.
 About four o'clock Grissom was awakened by the cries of the dog, took a light and went to release him. AS he entered the room the fumes of the gasoline became ignited. An explosion followed, and Grissom was enveloped in the flames which filled the room rendering escape impossible.

Rats as Plaque Transmitters.
,Signed)

In view of the admitted importance of the rat in the transmission of plague, the study of this disease among rodents has often as necessary from the point of view of preventive hygiene as is the management of the human cases when they arise. In. a report to the local government board of England on rat plague in East Ang- lia during the period from July to October, 1911, the magnitude of sin gle campaign is shown. During four months 15,332 rats were examined for plague infection. Thirty-five of the rats were found to be plague infected. Twenty-seven premises were found to harbor plague-infected rats. The places were all within an area previ- ously pronounced to be infected. The rat destruction, which had been main tained by local enterprise for some what more than year. had in many localities appreciably diminished the rat population.

Police Would Get 1t.

The talk of parents at home about conditions in the police department made deep impression on the mind of twelve-year-old boy who was be- fore Judge F. J. Lehr in juvenile court for stealing bicycle. The court had lectured the boy and his three com panions on the disgrace of stealing and finally asked the boys what they thought about stealing.
 Now suppose everybody were to steal" the court suggested, "and then what do you think would become of all of our property?"
 "Oh, the police would get every thing was the boys quick response. indianapolis News.

Calls for Much Material.

A Yorkshire (England) firm of wag- on builders has just received an order for 8,392 pairs of wheels and axles. The enormous amount of material in. volved may be gathered from the fact that if the wheels were placed end to end in one continuous line they would cover the distance of nearly 91a miles. The total weight of the material to be used is about 61,310 tons.

Exceptional! Luck.

A vehement argument, in which two racehorse players were defending their judgment, was overheard last night.
 "Why, nobody but sucker would have played that horse," said the first.
 Well, he won, didn't he? You can't get away from that. How about this bank roll?"
 Well" said No. 1, as he looked rather longingly at the money; well, all I've got to say is this: Most any old blind hog will dig up an acorn some day."-Louisville Times
