Get Data of laundering Industry.

Extensive materials for a history Of
the numbering industry of Eau Claire,
which is practically representative of
all Wisconsin numbering industries,
have been secured by nj. M. Quaife,
superintendent of the State Historical
society. This data consists of cOllec-
ton of almost 100000 letters consti-
tuting the entire correspondence of a
large Wisconsin numbering company
for a period of fifty years.
The letters were contributed to the
society by o. H Ingram, of Eau Claire,
who has been prominent in the lumber
business during the fifty years of it's
growth and decline in Wisconsin. He
was first a member of the firm of
Kennedy e Ingram, and later, after
buying out his partners share, he be-
came head of the corporation of the
Empire Lumber company. This COM
pany has now gone out Of business,
owing to the decline in the numbering
opportunities, and thus its correspond
ence and records are available for re-
search work

APRIL 26 DATE SET
FOR ENDORSEMENT
IEETING OF 110 DELEGATES
FROM ALL OVER STATE TO BE
HELD IN ASSEMBLY.
Reports From the State Show Dele
gates to National Convention
Are Divided.

Madison, Wis, April 1.-THE COM
mittee of 110 which is expected to
name the conser t.7e republican
candidate for Unit States senator
will meet in the assembly chamber in
Madison at 200 o'clock on the after
noon of April 26. This is the tenta-
tive date announced by George A.
West, chairman. of the committe in
charge, and it is likely that the other
two members of the committee,
George F. Gordon, La Crosse, and e.
F. Lyons, Fond du Lac, will approve
of it.
Several members Of the committee
and candidates for United States sena-
tor are urging an early Endorsement
of a conservative republican sena-
torial candidate SO that the candi-
date will have ample time to conduct
thorough campaign. Thus far ex-
pressiOns have been strongly in favor
of an Endorsement Of candidate when
the committee meets in Madison.
Judging from present sentiment, any
suggestion that the Endorsement be
left to a future date when the conserv-
ative republicans will confer with re-
spect to candidates for state officers
will not receive much backing.

VILLA DEATH IS |
NOT CONFIRMED
Washington Hopes, However,
RSpart Is True.
WOULD RECALL u. S. TROOPS

U. S. Official Fear Hoax Has Been
Concocted to Bring About End to
Punitive Expedition--Repor from
General Pershing Is Awaited at the
Capital.
Washington, April 17-There is no
confirmation at either the state or war
departments of reports from the bor
der that Villa is dead and his body
is being brought to northern Mexico
to satisfy American authorities.
The Mexican embassy has received
similar reports of the death of Villa,
but places little credence in them
Reports Are Secuted.
Officials generally fear reports of
the death of Villa are being circulated
with a view to hurrying the retire
ment of American troops from Mex
leo.
Consul Garcia at Ell Paso has noti-
fled American authorities that mes
sages have been received at the Mex
lean military headquarters in Juarez
that Villas body is being brought to
Chihuahua City.
He reports also receipt of dispatch
from San Antonio, Mex, saying that
Villas body is being brought to that
city by Colonel Carlos Carranza,
nephew of the first chief
Hope Report Is True.
Nothing would give the administra-
tion greater satisfaction than to have
clearly established the fact of the cap
ture or death of Villa, but nothing
short of absolute proof of one or the
other condition can be accepted at
this time.
Many rumors concerning Villa, his
physical condition, plans and where.
abouts have reached the war depart
ment since the chaseuf him was or
dered March 10, but most of these ru.
mors when run down were found to be
untrue.
Purpose Behind Reports.
It was learned that some of them
had been started in Mexico by sympa-
thizers with Villa who were desirous
of assisting the bandit to escape the
American pursuit.
However. should either Of these
latest reports from Consul Garcia
prove true and confirmation comes
from American military and other of
ficials orders will be flashed over tie
wires to General Funston to direct the
American forces from Mexico.
Would Withdraw Quickly.
General Pershing will be reached by
wireless, aeroplane or in some other
way, directing him to return with his
punitive expeditionary forces with all
possible speed and in as few hours as
human agency can compass Mexico
will be freed from the presence OF
American troops.

SEVEN VOCATIONS TO WHICH
LIFE INSURANCE Is REFUSED
Actresses Too Temperamental, While
Statesmen Are Best Risks.

Your life is not worth a dime, not
to insurance companies, if you are list
ed among the fatal sewn" which con-
sist Of steeplejacks, ayiators, soldiers,
dynamite EMPLOYEES, jockeys, auto rae
ers and grOoms who ride to hounds
Insurance companies keep a closer
tab on deaths than anybody else in
the world. Deaths cost them money,
and to reduce the risks they have fig
ured things out on a percentage basis.
They will not insure persons in some
walks of life. They will take chance
on a soldier in time of peace, but a
rider In his policy makes it void dur
ing war. The other chaps III the fatal
seven" they won't insure at all.
There are other "undesira bles"-sail
ors, prison guards, bridge builders,
ironworkers, players in the movies.
Insurance companies charge high rates
when insuring any persons in these
occupations.
Actresses are too temperamental for
travelling, and they have to travel, ac-
cording to the risk firms. Distillery
workers pay $50 per $1,000 for policies.
Doctors are not held good risks-too
liable to accidents.
Best risks are commercial travellers,
because they're so familiar with the
perils of travel they seldom get hurt.
Only 10 per cent of their accident poll
cies are collected.
SchOOlteachers also are good risks.

Berlin, April 17.-Dispatches from
Constantinople voice the absolute GER
tainty that the 10000 British troops

bottled up by ihe Turks since the be-
ginning of the year in .Kut-el-Amara.

from the Turkish capital is being
gradually starved out.
Comments in the German press on
the Mesopotamian situation are ex-
tremely optimistic Military critics
here assert that the Turkish war Of
fee has been conservative in all its
statements and offer the psycholog-
ical explanation that Turkey proposes
to have the blow which is declared
inevitable, to strike hard and above
ali suddenly.

WATERFOWL To HAVE
EMPLOYMENT BUREAU
BUSINESS MEMS ASSOCIATION
MAKE ARRANGEMENT TO
START BUREAU HERE.
win be Established i'm the Office OF
the Secretary of the AssOcia-
ton Soon.

At a meeting of the Business Mems
association, held Tuesday evening, ar
rangements were made to establish a
free employment bureau in this city,
so as to eliminate the unemployed in
this city.
The business men of this city be-
Eeve that such a step will be a great
help to Watertown as it will give the
unemployed, and those looking for
help, a place where they will be able
to get in touch with one another.
This bureau will take care of people
in search of every line of employment,
ranging from those in search of
farm work to the girl in search of
domestic work
The association is in communica-
ton with several of the free employ
ment bureaus of the state at the pres
ent time, to secure information as to
how they are conducted and what sue
cess they are meeting with in the lar
ger cities where they have been con-
Quoted for some time.
This step was brought about by the
fact that people were continually ask
ing the business men about the city
if they did not know of a place where
they could secure employment, while
others would ask where help could
be found, but as it is necessary to keep
these names on file in order to have
a record OF the inquiring parties
they have adopted this idea.
This bureau will be started within
few weeks and will be conducted in
the office of the secretary of the as
sociation.

Senator 5orah Charges That in Some
Cases They Are EmbezzIed.

Washington, April 17.-Senator Bo-

that federal funds provided for the ma

Seaplanes Travel 500 Miles and Re
turn Safely to Base.

London, April T.-Starting out
from a British naval base somewhere
in the Aegean" three British naval
aeroplanes flew to Constantinople last
Friday, bombarded a powder factory

having achieved the greatest aerial
feat of the war, so far as distance is
concerned.
The fight to Constantinople and
back covered distance of more than
800 miles. At the same time another

Paris and Berlin Reports Con-
tTadict One Another.
JUST ALIKE IN REVERSE SENSE
Paris Claims Capture of Trenches
South of Douaumont and Taking of
200 Prisoners-BerIin Says Attack
Failed and Germans Took 200 Pris-
onerS.

London, April 17.-With the Ger
the form of heavy artillery action,
continuing against Hill 304 and the
Avocourt region, the heaviest fighting
of the day shifted to the Douamont-
VauX sector west of the river where
for the first time in several days Vio-
lent infantry action took place.
Official reports from both Berlin
and Paris claim successes in this
fighting The afternoon report from
Paris announces the capture of sew
eral General positions south of Doua-
mont, together with 200 men. This ad-
vance apparently occurred late Sat
urday night, but statement from Ber-
lin issued early Sunday announces the
crushing defeat of French attacks in
the same region. Though the German
statement was issued several hours
after the French afternoon report, it
is believed to refer to the same ac-
ton
Germans Capture 200.
Berlin claims 200 prisoners in this
fighting, and declares the French
losses in dead and wounded were
heavy.
The midnight communique from
Paris, however, admits no reverses
but declares that the artillery action
against Hill 304 and in the Douau-
mont and Woevre regions continued
all day without slackening.
French Report.
The French afternoon report says:
"On the right bank of the Meuse
toward the close of yesterday we de-
ivered spirited attack against the
German positions south of Douaumont
The effort, which was completely sue
cessful. made it possible for us to
occupy certain sections of the Ger.
man trenches and capture 200 men, &C
whom two were officers"
What Berlin Says.
The Berlin report says:
EAST of the Meuse yesterday eyeN
ing there was violent fighting on the
front from Fort Douaumont to the
Vaux Canyon. The French, after am
pie artillery preparations, attacked
with considerable force, but were re-
pulsed with heavy losses. About 200
unwounded prisoners were left in our
hands"
