Before adjournment Schuetze
brought up the matter of better pro
lection at open bridge draws. He
said that some people are going in
there and the city will pay heavily.
The mayor said that the matter has
been discussed for forty years; that
automobiles climb up the partially
lifted Bascule leafs in Milwaukee;
Thorison also despaired Of getting any
thing practical that will aid very much
and said that nothing yet invented for
it is fool proof. Nc keough suggested
that Schuetze take it up with the city
engineer and Schuetze said he isn't
paid for that. Mc'Keough always has
the last word and he said: "Well, we
voted overtime pay for the election
clerks tonight perhaps the council
would do something for you." The
session adjourned at 1890.

EDUCATIONAL.
(By G. w. Meisnest.,

The teachers meeting at Mishicot
was as usual a successful one. Mr..
Neale of Stevens Point gave two peri
DDS "to picture stuGy" and one to local
geography. Mr.. Neale is very enthGs-
iastic in his work and his genial dispo-
sition added much to the meeting.
All the numbers on the program were
well presented, the only awback be-
ing that the day was too short and the
program had u be shortened. Mr..
Neale will be with us again December
l6, when the Southern Section and
Northwestern Section will hold joint
meeting at the Training School. Each
teacher brought some lunch and all
the teachers sat around two tables and
dined together. The local school pre-
pared hot wieners, and were chiefly
responsible for this part of the pro
gram. The following teachers were
present:

Issues Statement.
General Francisco Gonzales made
the following statement:
Immediately upon learning of the
presence of American troops in the
vicinity of Carrizal, General Felix
Gomez dispatched messenger with
a request that the American COM
mander withdraw to his camp. When
the American troops remained notion
less, he sent second dispatch bearer,
who was fired upon by the American
troops after he had delivered his
message. The Americans immedi-
ately moved forward and attacked
General Gomez's command.
"All the prisoners admitted that
the blame should be put on the Am
erican commander for having ordered
the attack. The prisoners we're sent

makes excellent summer quarters for
the flock. It should not be low, wet
and stagnant. If it is the flock had
better not be allowed there, as low,
wet places during hot weather are
very unhealthy to the breeds Of sheep
raised in this country. Also such
places are usually Infested with count
less millions Of mosquitoes, and live
stock are literally eaten alive. be-
ieve If the owner who keeps stock In
such places were obliged to spend
few hours a day there himself he
would be more reasonable.
If there is no other way open to pro-
vide shade for the flock take little
time and make some. A good plan is
to set some short posts in the ground,
just high enough so that the sheep
can get under them, and make a roof
over them, the size Of the roof to build
and the amount Of posts to set depend
ing upon the size Of the flock. 1t
should be large enough that the sheep
can get in the shade without crowd
ing. The boards forming the roof
should be nailed down so that they
will not be blown off. The roof may
be made fat and out Of material that
is too worthless for other purposes
and will pay very well for the few
hours time needed to make it.

Funston Reports.
Washington, June 22.-General
Funston reported late last night that
he had received official confirmation
of clash between Carranza and
American troops at Carrizal, Mexico.
He had no details Of the incident,
however, except those provided by
American officials at Juarez.
Reports aroused the gravest ap-
prehension here for future relations
between the United States and the
Mexican defacto. government, al
ready strained almost to the break
ing point. =.
Officials declined to make any pro-
phecy as to the next step of the
Washington government, saying that
until details of the incident had been
cleared up, it could not be determined
whether a crisis had been precipi-
tated. They made no effort to con-
ceal their anxiety, but were not ready
to abandon hope that an official &C
count of what happened at Carrizal
would remove the more threatening
elements of the situation. -
A Misunderstanding. ....
| Much depends, it was indicated,
whether the clash was the result of
General Carranza's determination to
enforce his demand for withdrawal of
American troops from Mexico, or
merely a detached incident arising
out of misunderstanding between
commanders. If it was deliberate
attempt to back up the Carranza edict
by force, there seems little doubt
that President Wilson will accept it
as an act of war and make good his
word in the. latest note to the de-
facto government, in which he said
that any such attempt would be fol-
lowed by ''the gravest consequences"
Whatever the outcome of the Off
cial investigation, however, it was
admitted on every hand that the in
| cident in itself presented. a crave

FATE
AWAITS OTHER
GOLF STARS

Chicago, April 22.-Now that the
official ak of the United States Golf
association has fallen on Francis Oui,
met, former national amateur and
open champion, several Chicago golf
ers who undoubtedly will come under.
the ban, are wondering how many
players will be prevented from COM
peting in amateur competitions.
NJ. Lewis Crosby, the Massachus-
etts representative of the executive
committee of the U. S. G. a., did not
notify Ouimet he was a professional,
his edict being that the famous Bos
ton player was not eligible for anna
teur competition.
Anderson Quits Job.
John Anderson, who was runner
up last year to Bob Gardner in the
national amateur championship, va
Gated his position as head of the golf
department of a big New York store
to remain a simon pure amateur.
So far as the United States Golf
association appears to have taken up
individual cases, but if the ruling that
has been applied to these men is to
affect all persons who sell golf goods
there is a big job on hand for the
executive committee of the national
body.
Thousands Affected.
A local golfer has made list of
dealers in athletic goods in this coun-
try and finds it numbers $500 The
majority of these houses sell golfing
goods and under the strict interpreta7
ton of the new rule of the U. S. G. A.
several thousand players would be in.
eligible for amateur competition
Their only loophole appears to be
lack of skill at golf. ~
If they can play the game at all,
they certainly can be put in the same
class as Ouimet and man who has
a practical knowledge of the use Of
clubs generally is a better salesman
than one whose knowledge is theo
retical.
Chicago Champion Seeks New Job.
Walter Crowdus, the city champion,
is one of the local players who sub
mitted his case to President Wood
ward of the U. S. G.. A., and the an
swer he received caused him to leave
his position.
