Defenders.
London, Jan. 26.-England is In a
panic. Fear of a general air invasion
by the new and powerful aeroplanes
recently developed by the Germans is
sweeping over the island and making
itself felt in high official circles. Mon
day, German airships attacked Dover
in the third raid in three days. Soar
ing high above the range Of the anti
aircraft guns defending the channel
port the Germans dropped bombs on
arsenals and barracks. The amount
of damage has not been given out by
the British war office. Two British
planes ascended to attack the invader.
Waiting until the British craft were
in full flight the Germans fired a cou-
ple of shells at them and speeded
away, easily outdistanclng its pur-
suers.
On the heels Of the air raid comes
the official admission that Austro-
Hungarian troops have occupied the
important town Of Scutari in northern
Albania, according to q Stefani News

RELATIVES OF SELK HERE.

Identification of the man, who was
found dead just north Of here last week,
has not been completed. More particu-
lars have been learned since his burial.
His name is given as Louis SEEK, age
fifty-siX years. He was employed in
the McIntire Burial Harness Shop at
Green Bay for the past eight years.
+. Schlegelmilch, a nephew, and Joe
Bouchard, proprietor of the Manito-
voc House at Green Bay with whom
Mr.. Selk had been boarding for some
time identified the clothes, shoes and
the ring worn by Mr.. Selk and says
that he is no doubt the party they are
seeking.
The hotel proprietor says Mr.. Selk
left the harne IS shop at 1l45 Tuesday
morning and for few days had been
acting queer. The ring which he
carried was given to him by an old
friend, e. Pautz of Manitowoc. Mr..
Bouchard had often heard him say,

Monday Chas. Selk of Manitowoc,
who is in the Cold Storage business in
that city came here and by the photo
and evidence received, he thought the
dead man must be his brother. Two
detectives are now working on the case
trying to find out whether Mr.. Selk
committed suicide or was murdered by
some one along the track. Itbas been
proven that sl4.50 was in his possession
when he left Green Bay Tuesday noon.

PROVED HIMSELF A HERO.

John W. Carey, product OF the
town Of Liberty, this county, who has
been on the fire department of Chicago
for years and is now a lieutenant,
showed himself hero in fire one day
last week. The following account of
the fire and the heroic work done by
Lieutenant Carey is taken from The
Chicago Daily News;
Stirring rescues of women and
children featured lively fire in the
Poland apartments on West Jackson
boulevard early to-day. Smoke filled
the buildir G so rapidly that fully a
half dozen were cut OFF from escape.
In the midst of this peril came Lieut..
John w. Carey of Truck company No.
26 and his corps Of ladder men. The
street was dark and filled with a mist
made up of the early morning gloom
and the spresding smoke. Thirty
men, women and children were run
ming about in their night clothing OBJ
livious, in their panic, to the chill of
the hour.
Gall out?" inquired the fire lieuten-
ant.
81 don't see those three children who
live on the third floor" cried one wom-
an.
"Some one pointed out the mother
She was frantic. Lieut.. Carey pluck
ed from her incoherent words the loca-
tion Of the children's bedroom and sent
ladder aloft. This he mounted nim-
bly,. Smoke was everywhere. The
lieutenant entered window after
smashing the pane with his fist. He
was inside only moment.
When he resppeared his arms were
filled. He had the children. The de.
scent was perilous, but the officer made
it without mishap. Two OF the chill
dren had been overcome by the smoke
while asleep and the third, the young
est, was dazed. They were revived" "

as final. The High School Board i'm
mediately took steps to fill the position,
and we are informed that new prin-
cipal has been practically secured,

principal of our school on September
8, 1874 and with the exceptions of the

best years Of his life in imparting
knowledge to many of us, our children,
and ever their children, and now that

we can but wish that the remaining
years Of his life be spent with us in
and contentment in his home

HOW TO CONSOLIDATE

In Wisconsin there are two general
methods by which school districts
may be considered
|. Bya vote of the people in the
districts interested.
2. BY the action Of the town (or
vlllaPe) boards in whose jurisdiction
the interested districts are located
BY the first method, at least ID
per cent OF the electors in each OF
two or more contiguous districts may
petition their school boards to bring
the question Of consolidation before
the people. The petitions, however,
must designate definitely the districts
included in the proposed consoida.
tion. The school boards OF the dis.
tricts concerned meet to fix date
when the question shall be voted up
on. The date shall be the same for
all districts, and the people meet in
their respective districts to vote upon
the question. A majority OF the votes
cast in each district is necessary to
carry the proposition. II the PROPOSE
ton carries in all the districts, these
districts have then consolidated them
selves.
According TO the second method,
the town board Tor boards) may,
upon their own motion or upon petit
tion, take up the question Of consoli-
ia ting two or more districts Just rs
they have the authority to make any
alttrnatioas in school district boun-
daries. They must, however grant a
hearing and give notice Of such hear.
ing so that persons in favor OF the
proposition, or opposed to it, may
have an opportunity TO be heard. Az
ter this hearing the board takes ac-
ton. II 1t is decided that the districts
shall be consolidated, an order is
made TO that effect. Any person con-
sdering himself aggrieved by the ac-
tion Of the town board solidating
or refusing to consolidate the dis
tricts may appeal to the county com.
mittee of common schools A fur.
ther appeal MAJ be taken from the
action OF this committee TO the state
uperintendent.
A special law provides that IL one
third OF the voters In each Of the
school districts interested in the con-
solidation proposition shall sign a pc
titlon to the chairman Of the town
board Tor q village president In case
a village Is interested), said officer
shall within twenty days call a meet
ing OF the Gown boards concerned and
act upon the petition. Refusal to
act or to meet on the part OF the OFF,
GERS Is deemed a denial OF the petition
and, an appeal to the state superin-
tendent may be taken In the manner
prescribed by law,
