WARMER WEATHER
BUREAU EXPERTS SAY FROSTS
DID LITTLE DAMAGE-COLD
WAVE MOVES EAST.

Washington. Aug. 2S.-Weather
bureau experts said that the cold
weather which covered the east on
Thursday, will last only till Sunday
and Monday and will vanish into the
Atlantic with summer close on its
trail.
The cold wave came from Medicine
Hat over Lake Superior to the Dor
ders of the south and extended east
from the Missouri river. The coolest
place in the United States in the af-
fected zones was Sault Ste. Marie.
with a temperature of "a. but White

low temperatures, however, lasted
only until the sun rose and weather
bureau experts figure that practically
no damage had been done to crops.

MADISON'S GROWTH
FIFTY-EIGHT NEW RESIDENCES
SO FAR THIS YEAR.

When Judge Holdridge returned
home a day or two ago from a nine
weeks absence at the home OF a
daughter in Cedar Rapids, Ia, he felt
himself a stranger in his home city.
He observed scores of workmen en-
ployed in the construction of the new
high school building, VanEps avenue
and Fifth street, the Vreyens-Daniels
block looming up, foundation walls
of Glatz block being laid in Egan ave-
nue., and excavation for the new Da-
kota Central telephone office in East
Fifth street. Not a blow had been
struck on any of these buildings
when the judge left town nine weeks
ago, and the business streets looked
strange to him. Judge Holdridge is
one of Madison's oldest residents in
point of age and citizenship and the
hustle of building improvements in
the downtown streets renewed his
progressive spirits which have been
one of his notable characteristics dur
ing his quarter of a century residence
in Madison. After viewing the piling
up of brick in the massive buildings
down town, and in order to familiar
ize himself with the building inn
provements in the residence portions
of the city, he stepped into the fam
lily automobile and by a careful can
vass of the city. street by street, he
enumerated hfty-eight new resi-
dences which are in course of con-
struction or have been completed
since January 1, 1915.
This is the building record of Mad
ison for a season which is not yet fin
ished-in the regular course of bust
ness and without a semblance of an
unnatural boom. There is a demand
for all of it, and not a day passes
without inquiry for houses to rent
which cannot be supplied. The resi-
dences being built are of the better
class. for home use, and few are be-
ing built for rent. With the high
school building, brick business blocks
and residences being built and com
pleted in Madison this year the rec
ord of expenditure will without doubt
exceed a half million dollars for
1915.

THE EGAN CASE
TESTIMONY IN DISARMAMENT
PROCEEDINGS AT SIOUN
FALLS.

Sioux Falls, Aug. 2S.-Another
day has been devoted to the taking of
testimony in the Egan disbarment
case. Progress is being made slowly,
owing to the many objections which
are being i%nterposed.
A considerable portion of the aft
ernoon yesterday was given over to
taking testimony i'm the Hatland case.
1t is alleged that Egan secured a
$1,000 mortgage besides a sum of
money from Jacob Hatland of Gar
retson when the latter was of un-
sound dind. Thomas Wangsness, a
banker and guardian for Hatland,
George Disehner, a business man,
Claoss Sherman, a policeman, An
drew Stephenson, e~x-county commits
sioner, all testified as to Hatland's
mental condition at this time. A
portion of today was also taken up
in this case.
The case of Mr.. Perreault was also
gone into to some extent. 1t Is
claimed that Egan, acting as Per-
reault's attorney in a ease against
the Wisconsin Granite company, col
lected the judgment secured. and has
not turned any of it over to Per-
reault. w. e. CAN'T, a Sioux City at
torney, was a witness in this case,
he having been later an attorney for
Perreault in an effort to the
judgment.
The w. A. Renner case was up
yesterday and again today. In dis
patches it was stated that Egan had
secured a $4,000 attorney fee in this
case. 1t should have been $4,000.
The allegation in this case is that an
agreement was made that Renner
should pay an attorney fee of $1,000,
and providing a divorce was secured
the fee was to be $4,000. 1t is al

GERMAN EMPRESS 9TH BIRTHDAY TO BE WIDELY
 OBSERVED TOMORROW

The Empress Augusta Victoria, consort of Kaiser William, will pass her ffty-seventh milestone tomorrow,
 and there will doubtless be a wide spread observance and emembrance
 of the anniversary by the soldiers of
 the aentrhI empires The aiseFin was born Oct. 22, 1858, at Dolzig, the
 daughter of the late Duke Frederick of chleswig-Holstein = -Sonderburg- Augustenburg, and became the bride
 of the grandson of Emperor William

 throne The Empress is the senior Of the Kaiser by a. little more than three
 months. It is said that she has aged
 terribly in the last year, and, where
 as she formerly looked like young
 woman, save for her snow-wh1te hair,
 she has suddenly become haggard and old in appearance. Since the out
 break of the war the Kaiser1n has on several occasions visited her husband
 at the front. In Berlin she had paid
 daily visits to the wounded at the
 Charlie, the capitals great hospital.
 The Grown Princess usually accom-
 panies her on these errands of mercy, and both chat with the suffering off,
 cers and soldiers and leave bouquets
 of flowers for them. In her younger
 days the aiserin was rather proud Of the title of t't11e worst dressed royal woman in Europe, and she seemed
 to find pleasure in wearing the most
 unbeco onning costumes. The Emperor,
 however, did not share this enjoy
 ment, and he himself designed several costumes for his spouse. William s efforts in that direction were notSvery
 successful, however, and the results of his artistic genius aroused the r1s-
 ibiities of the ladies of the court although they were very careful not to laugh when the Emperor or Elm press were about. Suddenly, some six or seven years ago, the Kaisertn manifested great interest in dress, and to the surprise and delight of the
 Berliners she appeared bedecked in the most a1luring of Partisan garb-

10th Year of Britain's s Rule
 as Mistress of the Seas"

Londoners will probably celebrate Trafalgar Day today with unusual en- thusiasm, for the 10th anniversary of Nelson's great victory still finds Britain supreme upon the ocean. Mistress of the seas has been the proud boast of Britain ever since that day when Nelson died in the hour of his great victory, and it has never been seriously threatened. In the last war between the United States and Great Britain the brave and hardy seamen of the infant republic gave John Bulls fighting tars a hard tus- sle, and proved that they, too, had inherited the spirit of the Scotch, Irish and English sailormen who laid the foundation for Britain's stlprem- acy ion the water.
 Britain's naval mastery has been given a severe test within the last year, but so far, in spite of the Ger man submarine warfare and the des- truction of a number of vessels. the significance of Trafalgar Day remains undimmed. The flags of Germany, Austria and Turkey have been driven from the seven seas. So far as her navy is concerned, at least, Britain has performed her full duty.
 The central observance of Trafal- gar Day is in Trafalgar Square, Lon don, where the statue of Toratto Lord Nelson, is annually decorated with flags and flowers. The shamrock, the thistle, the rose and the maple leaf will be entwined today with the lilies of France in the decoration of the shaft reared to perpetuate the mem ory of Great Britaln's foremost naval hero The French tri-color and the flaming banner of Spain wii1 fly be- side the Union Jack, symbolic of the peace and annity which now exists be- tween the enemies of Nelson s time.
 When Trafalgar was fought no years ago today, the vessels engaged were propelled by sails and armed with guns which would seem mere toys if placed beside the mighty en- zines of destruction which brfst1e

 from the modern uper-dreadnough ghts. Trafalgar was fought two years be+ fore Robert Fulton built his first crude model, and several decades passed before the British navy be- came a steam propelled fleet.
 The fleet of Nelson at Trafalgar was composed of four frigates and twenty seven ships, while France and Spain had taSsembled a fleet of five frigates and thirty-three ships. Nell som was killed and the British lost many men before the Allies, having lost nineteen ships, surrendered to Admiral Collingwood, the successor of Nelson.
 Of the many traditions of that great ebattle, the greatest relates to Nell sons famous message, England ex- poets every man to do his duty. In this connection Captain Pasco, Nell son's flag lieutenant, who had to sig nal the words by means of flags. gave this account:
 'f4is lordship came to me at the poop, and after ordering certain sig noon he said, MT. Pasco. I wish to say to the fleet, England confides that every man will do his duty; and he added, you must be quick, for I have one more to make, which is for close action replied, If your loEdship will permit me to substitute "expects'' for "confides,'' the signal will soon be completed, because the word "expects'' is in the vocabulary, whereas the word 'sconfides'' must be spelled His lordship replied in haste, and with seeming satisfaction, That will do, Pasco; make it directly. When it had been answered by a few ships in the van, he ordered me to make the signal for close action.
