BOARD GETS $1,000
SOME CITIZENS EMPRESS HOPE
NEW BUILDING WILL OCCUPY
Old SCHOOL SITE.

1t is not improbable that Madison
is on the threshold of realizing the
often expressed wish to come into
possession Of a high school building
that win comprise ali the necessities,
especially sanitary housing capacity,
that are demanded of modern public
institutions OF learning.
Obtaining by the board of educa-
ton late yesterday $1,000 i'm settle
ment for the partial destruction by
fire OF the old, original unit Of the
Central school has lent impetus to the
hopes of those who have expressed
themselves as being in favor of the
erection of an addition that will be in
close symmetry TO the present build
ing.
Settlement Of the fire loss was
reached after negotiations between
the board of education and represent
atives of the insurance companies had
been carried on for more than two
months. The schoolhouse was burn
ed on the morning of December 6,
and although adjusters arrived with
in a week from the time of the fire,
llItll O1lE1liUA OAitIG w HIG ielClitu. dts
being too low. Returning to the city
last Tuesday afternoon, the adjusters
at once went into conference with
the board of education, and renewed
their offer of a little more than
$15 900, which they declared their
appraiser had reported was more than
sufficient to cover the loss. The
board stood firm, and thereby gained
between 5000 and $1,000 for the
school fund. Two contractors, A. J.
Garner and James Robertson, esti-
mated the loss for the board. The to-
tai insurance carried on the building
and contents was $4,000.
Members of the board said today
they had not considered future plans
for the school. and that there had
been no discussion as to whether they
would rebuild the old structure or
erect q new building. 1t was said,
however, that the matter probably
would be formally taken up soon
after the recovery of Henry Rohrer,
board member who is i'll.
Citizens have pointed out that the
insurance money and the materials
that could be %salvaged from the ruins
would so a long way toward building
a new addition The present base
ment, engine room. engine and smoke
stack could be used, as well as a large
quantity or the old brick and dimen-
sion lumber. Men who have exam
med the wrecked building appear TO
be in doubt as to whether the walls
standing are strong enough to sup
port a rebuilt structure.

FORM GLEE CLUB
THOUGHT NEW ORGANIZATION
WILL PROVE DESIRABLE AID
NERTISEMENT FOR CITY.

That there is vocal talent. and to
spare, in Madison was impressiyely
brought out at a REORGANIZATION
meeting last night of the new Madi-
son Glee club in Prof. Tjomsland's
studio in the Garner block. Twelve
enthusiastic male singers were in at
tendance.
It was decided to make the club a
permanent organization, and to elect
officers and transact other business
at a meeting to be held in the studio
next Wednesday evening, when, it is
hoped 10 have double the number in
attendance.
The glee club will be the first or
g%anization of its kind in Madison for
several years, and it is believed, will
be a good advertisement for the city.
1t is thought that the clubs services
will be in demand at parks and sum
mer resorts. A minstrel show will be
given here in the near future, and a
concert at a later date.
Men singers who desire to join the
club, are invited to be present at
Prof. Tjomsland's studio at s O'Clock
next Wednesday evening, Febru-

SAW LINCOLN KILLED
DISPUTES MOVIE ACTORS CLAIM
As ONLY LIVING WITNESS OF
NATIONAL TRAGEDY.

Brookings. Feb. 17.-Noting q
claim made by a moving picture actor
that ne is the only man living who
saw Abrahama Lincoln assassinated,
William Laddusu, a Well known resi-
dent OF Brookings county. disputes
the statement.
Laddusau was a member of Com
pany l., Twentieth United States cav
airy, stationed at Washington at the
time, and was given leave for sight
seeing. He went to the theater to see
Laura Keene i'm our American Cou-
SIM and sat where the president was
in plain sight, in his box at the right
Of the stage.
Laddusau knew Wilkes Booth well
and while watching the play saw
Booth pass along an aisle in front OF
him, with a pistol I'M one hand and a
dagger in the other hand. Supposing
it to be a part Of the play, he thought
no more Of Booths act.
Shortly afterward a shot rang out,
and Laddusau glanced toward the
presidents box and saw Lincoln's
head drop forward. Immediately the
building was in confusion, but Lad
dusau saw Booth leap from the stage
and disappear, limping.
Laddusau was a member of the de-
tachment of soldiers which helped
search for Booth, but was not with
the party that shot the assassin.

ELEVATOR TROUBLE
STOCKHOLDERS OF HARTFORD
FARMERS COOPERATIVE Ell
ENATOR COMPANY DO NOT
AGREE ON MANAGER.

Hartford, Feb. 17.-Nearly the en-
tire number Of the 271 stockholders
of the Farmers Cooperative Elevator
company, of Hartford. met in the
Palace opera house yesterday to de-
termine the legal status of their di-
rectors and officers. Attorneys from
Sioux Falls were present to advise
both factions Of the organization
which are for or against the old man
ager. Opportunity was given for the
expression of views by all the stock
holders, and many of them voiced
their sentiments loudly and eloquent
ly. The company is having some diff
ficuly because the directors have
failed to comply with the wish OF the
large majority of the stockholders.
The stockholders desire TO retain the
old manager, /. s. Henjum, but the
directors have hired a new manager,
and the stockholders resent the over
ruling of their wishes. A motion was
passed to call another meeting in the
near future, at which new directors
will probably be elected.
The elevator has had a remarkable
growth and period of prosperity in

HATS OFF TO BIDDY
EGGS 4 CENTS CHEAPER THAN
A MONTH AGO-STILI GO
ING DOWN.

Bright suns rays have again in
stilled i'm Biddy a realization of her
duty as a hen, and as a result the
price of eggs has hit the inevitable
decline.
Commission merchants explain the
Scent drop in the price of eggs dur
ing the last month by laying stress
on the cheerful aspect with which all
but the most %unfeeling hens have
witnessed the %dwindling of snow
piles, They say that as the drifts
continue to decrease so will the sup
ply of eggs increase, and that the re
suit is that the price of eggs will
gradually grow lower, in sympathy.
Where eggs brought rs cents on
the local market a month ago, and %
cents a week ago, only 20 cents a
dozen is now being offered, a dealer
reported today. And the slump in
price is not altogether due TO the gen
erous nature of local hens, it is eX-
planned. From now on barnyard
fowls of this district must compete i'm
the city markets with their southern
sisters, whose eggs are now being
daily shipped north in carload lots.

CASE HERE PLAYED PART
EGAN DECLARED TO HAVE BEEN
DISHONEST WITH LAKE
COUNTY CLIENT.

Pierre, Feb. Especial: BY no
means the least factor in the pro-
ceedings which led to the recon-
mendation for the disbarment Of
George w. Egan, was the Madison
case of w. A. Renner.
The findings Of the referees in the
case are that w. "A. Renner employed
Egan in an action pending i'm the cir
cult court of Lake county which was
brought for a divorce, for alimony
and for custody Of the minor child Of
the party. At the time of the en-
ployment Renner paid Egan 500 as
a retainer fee and later paid Egan a
sum of 5000. when Egan gave Rem
ner a receipt i'm which was stated IF
the case is won and offending party
convicted, $4,000 more and expenses
to be paid; otherwise this is full fee
in Renner vs.. Renner." The Offend
ing party referred to is a mar who
Renner believed was guilty of adult
cry with Renner's wife. Later on the
10th of May Egan represented that he
would not be able to perform the
services desired in said action and
pay his own expenses unless a larger
fee should be paid and demanded a
further payment of $4,000, which
was paid. The action when it came
to trial resulted in favor OF PLAINTIFF
and against w. A. Renner. That
under date of December 10, 1914,
said George w. Egan in a further at
tempt to obtain unprofessionally and
dishonesty and without consideration
additional money from his client. w.

A. Renner a statement Of cash alleged
to have been expended by said Egan
on account Of said action, consisting
