DECISION IN PAVING CASES.
Supreme Court on tuesday Affirms
Decision of Lower Court in
Hurley's Paving Cases.


Wisconsin on Tuesday handed down
a decision in the town of Vaughn
tax cases, affirming the decision of
Judge Risjord, which was in favor
OF the property owners. AT this
writing a copy of the decision of
the supreme court was not avail
able and it is not known just what
the written opinion of the court
was. The first news that the prop.
erty owners had won in the action
against the town came in tele-
gram received here Tuesday after
noon.
This case grew out of the paving
of Hurley's main street and invol-
we'd many thousands of dollars. 1t
was the first case of the kind to
come before the supreme court and
the decision in this case will have
ali important bearing in future ac-
tons of town boards as regards the
matter of building roads and paw
ing streets.
The history of this case is we'll
known to most of our readers. In
the spring of 1914 the town board,
Messrs. Lambrix, Paul and Voigt
entered into a contract with Fred
Eul of Menasha for the paving of
Silver street with brick. A part of
the cost of the street was levied
against abutting property owners
as special assessment. Some of
the property owners paid their spe
cial paving assessment while others
dissented with the action of the
board. In January, 1915, suits
were commenced by the Northern
Chief Iron Co. and Gertz & Saline
and twenty-seven other property
holders on Silver street and an in
junction order to restrain the town
board from collecting and return
ing delinquent the special assess
ment against the abutting property
owners on Silver street was applied
for. The hearing in the injunction
proceedings took place before Judge
Risjord at Ashland on January o,
1915. Judge Risjord's decision was
received on March I3th following,
in which he held that the order
should be granted. The town ap-
pealed from the decision of the cir.
cult judge and the matter went to
the state supreme court. A few
weeks ago the case was argued be-
fore the supreme court, Attorneys
Geo. c. Foster and Marion F. Reid
appearing for the plaintiffs Gertz &
Saline, Attorneys Lamoreux & Cate
of Ashland for the Northern Chief
Iron Co. and Attorneys A. L. Rug.
giles and VIM. F. Shea of Ashland
for the town.
One of the points brought out in
the arguments of counsel for the
plaintiffs was the question of the
constitutionality of the statute un-
der which the board acted in levy
ing the special assessment for the
street paving, but as the text of the
opinion of the court has not been
received yet it is not known wheth
er this point was passed on or not.

HURLEY DROPS ANOTHER.
Game at Park Falls Last Sunday Goes
to the Enemy by the Score
of ii to 7.

Hurley dropped another game
last Sunday, losing out at Park
Falls by a III count. The contest
at times was a weird exhibition of
the national game. There was
much hitting and errors were also
numerous. While the local bows
hinged the ball the greater number
of times they also assisted the en-
emy by numerous bungles. Park
Falls used three pitchers in the eff
fort to stem the onslaught of the
local stickers. Rill heaved the
greater part of the game, being fol-
lowed by McQuillan, who in turn
was followed by Armstrong Car
roll ofhciated on the mound for
Hurley and i'll the first inning was
touched up pretty strong, Park
Falls getting five hits which netted
them four runs. After that Carroll
tightened up and kept the hits
scattered. Hurley secured one run
in the second frame, another III the
third and tied Park Falls in the
fifth. Park Falls went to the lead
again, however, in their half of the
fifth, getting four men around.
Two errors in Hurley's right field
and an overthrow to the plate from
short helped the Falls boys along
In the eighth Park Falls registered
three times, making eleven in all.
Hurley secured three more, one in
the seventh and two in the eighth.
The features of the game were the
home runs for Hurley. Post got
one in the second and Bert Secor,
who played left field, also got one.
Carroll got three strike-outs, Rill
two and Armstrong one. -Four
errors were chalked up against
Park Falls aud six against Hurley.
Tomorrow Mellen and Hurley
will play al the local park, starting
at 2:l5. This will be the first game
between these teams this season.
The Mellen lineup this year is
about the same as last year, with
Doc" Stanley doing the serving
in his usual style. Bradley, of Iron
wood, who worked behind the plate
until a few weeks ago, got bumped
and Mellen now has new catcher
who is said to be all to the good.
Emmons IS his name and he halls
from Madison, where he played
while student at the university.
The battery for Hurley tomor-
row will be Carol, Fitzgerald and
Richards Fitzgerald is a new find
who blew in" from the intellect
ual baseball centers and he will be
given a chance TO show us how.
Remember, the game will be called
at 2:1S. The Hurley band will be
out in full strength.

FEARING TODAY ON
FAKE SILK CHARGES
Federal Trade Commission Will Con,
slider Gases of Alleged Branding of
Product in Misleading Way.

The Federal Trade Commission will to-
day give a public hearing to manufac-
turers of thread and other articles, the
commission having filed a formal COM
plant against them charging that the
thread and other articles are made Of
mercerized cotton, but are branded and
advertised as silks" or silk" The
commission has decided that this brand
ing of the articles is misleading and Is
intended to defraUd purchasers, and.
therefore, it constitutes unfair competi-
ton under the Federal Trade Commits
sion act
1t is expected that today the Silk As
ISOLATION of America. which furnished
the commission with the information on
which it formulated its complaint, will
intervene and thus become the real COM
plainant in the case. The Silk Associa-
ton asserts that the branding OF mer-
CeTtzed cotton products as silk" works
injury to its members, who are manu-
faCturers Of genuine silk articles.
The hearing Is looked upon with in
terest. as it is the first one conducted by
the commission with the unfair competi-
ton section Of the Federal Trade Com
mission act.

IF BACKACHY OR
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Eat Less Meat and Take a Glass of
Salts to Flush Out Kidneys.
Drink Plenty Water.

Uric acid in meat excites the kidneys,
they become overworked: get sluggish,
ache, and feel like Jumps Of lead. The
urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is III
ritated, and you may be obliged to seek
relief two or three times during the
night. When the kidneys clog you must
help them flush off the body's urinous
waste or you'll be a real sick person
shortly. At first you feel a dull misery
in the kidney region. you suffer from
backache, sick headache, dizziness, stom-
aeh gets sour, tongue coated and you
feel rheumatic twinges when the weather
Is bad
Eat less meat, drink lots Of water; also
get from the pharmacist four ounces OF
Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful In a glass
OF water before breakfast for a few
days and your kidneys will act fine This
famous salts Is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
ltthia, and has been used for generations
to clean clogged kidneys and stimulate
them to normal activity. also to neutral
lie the acids IN urine, so it no longer is
a source of irritation, thus ending blad-
der weakness
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot injure;
makes a delightful effervescent uthia-
water drink which every one should take
now and then to keep the kidneys clean
and active. Druggists here say they sell
lots OF Jad Salts to folks who believe in
overcoming kidney trouble while It is
only trouble-Adv.

NJ CORMACK sings
TO POLL THRONG
Irish Tenor Brings Joy to
Hearts of Enormous Audi
ence at Concert.
DONALD M'BEATH AIDS
Mccormack Sings Entirely in English
with Exception of Melodic
Mozart Aria.

John Mccormack. the famous Irish
tenor, by his sweet singing brought
Joy to the hearts of thousands yester-
day afternoon at Polls Theater. The
large house was filled and II was nee
sssary to place seats upon the stage
for the crowds of song-lovers who
hocked to hear all the old ballads and
some new ones sung by their silver
voiced favorite tenor. Mr.. Mccormack
Imbues the simplest song with mean
ing that touches deeply the springs Of
human emotion and digniies ballad
singing by his admirable art.
The assisting soloist of the concert
vas Donald McBeath, violinist.
Mr. Mccormack sang entirely in
English, with the exception of the
drst number, the melodic Italian aria
I'm aura Amorosa," by Mozart.
In his first group Of songs Schu-
bert's My Sweet Repose" and When
Night Descends in Silence" by Rach-
maninofT. the accompaniment of the latter
being especially lovely, were beauti-
fully interpreted by Mr.. Mccormack.
The Spring Song" by Mendolssohn
was also excellent and two encores
were demanded by the audience.
In his Interpretation of a group Of
Irish folk songs Mr. Mccormack was
especially happy and evidently the
audience favored those above all
others, for the enthusiasm was I'M
bounded and Mr.. Mccormack was
compelled to repeat the humorous
''Trottin' to the Fair" and also sang
three encores-the always popular
Mother Machree." MY Little Gray
Home in the West" and II Hear You
Calling Me"
The last group of songs opened with
when the Dew Is Falling" composed
by Mr. Edwin Schneider, the accom-
PIANIST, and written for Mr.. McCor-
mack It is a musical gem and pleased
the listeners so we'll that Mr.. Schneid-
er was obliged to acknowledge the ap-
plause. The Old Refrain" by Fritz
KreisIer, The Bitterness of Love"
by Dunn. and Worth While" by Bur-
leigh, were splendidly sung by Mr..
Mccormack and each had its appeal
to human sentiment to which the
pIaintive quality Of the singers voice
adds delight As an encore to this
last group Of songs the Irish ballad.
"Macushla," an old fayorite, was given.
The viOIinist. Mr.. McBeath, displayed
musiCianly skill and artistic percep-
ton in all his work. There was tonal
variety and feeling in his intsrpreta-
ton OF Ereisler's arrangement of a
Chopin mazurka and Chaminade' S
"Serenade Espa gnole." Later the
Romance" by Wieniewski was played
with splendid expression. Mr.. Nc
Reath was recalled and played en-
cores after each of his numbers.

the piano accomplishments superbly, is

TATTLE-TALE SUSANS.

spread the news of the new scenario
abroad among the other studios"
The following day this individual
little newspaper was told that they
no longer needed her at the studio,
and off she founced to another COM
pany, soon, l heard, meeting the
same fate there.
Dear little girls, do learn to keep
your own counsel, as it is one of the
first attributes toward success. Don't
talk about your own achievements
even when you have something to be
proud of, and remember that every
unkind word you tell on others is
bound to reflect upon yourselves.
Talking too much is infinitely more
serious than not talking at all, and if
you have nothing to say, close wise
and silent lips.
Some people talk themselves into a
position, but you will nearly always
find they will talk themselves out of
it just as quickly. Many times we
meet with people to whom we at
tribute mental superiority because
they are clever conversationalists, but
the second time we meet them we
change our tune and the third time
we meet them we know how they
have duped US by their superficial
cleaning and their practiced use of
few pet phrases.
Ideas and not phraseology are the
basic foundation of intelligence.
The Washington herald., 1916-04-05

I low we'll I remember those
i days, far back in Canada,
when Jack would poke out my
poor dolls eyes to see what made
them blink or remove her scalp to
see if she had any thinkers or cut
her in two to see if she had any feel
ings-just the very things that every
girls younger brother does to tor
ment and tease her.
Sometimes l took it upon myself to
punish him, and often mother would,
if the offense was serious, but soon
learned that if ran to mother with
little trihing grievances l Jared quite
as badly as the culprit, because l be-
came what my mother called little
Miss TattIe-talc Susan"
Tattling is a habit that grows on
children, and while a mother should
always be informed by one what the
other is doing, at the same time chill
dren's imaginations are pretty keenly
developed and they can often make
as good story out of small chest
nut when they are six as when they
are sixty.
Of course, it is such fun to feel
sorry for yourself and have some one
to go and tell it to, but it soon be-
comes a whining habit, and-whom
do you dread to see come a-visiting
more than "Tattle-tale Susan" who
will not only tell you all her own
woes, but tales, true and imaginary,
Of her friends and her neighbors?
Of course, when a youngster brings
the information, Mamma, Johnny
has taken your best hat to make a
bean bag Of" or Katie is hanging
the kitten to the chandelier with the
cord from your bathrobe," it would
seem rather inconsistent for a moth
er to say, Run along, Tattle-tale
Susan, or I will punish you instead
of Johnny or Katie" But I do think
mothers should not let their kiddies
run to their knees with every little
trifling incident of the day.
A girl at our studio whose little
ferret eyes never missed anything
was always the one who had much
to relate of the goings on behind
closed doors or in shadowy corners.
AS we can never believe anything
we hear and only half of what we
see, this girl made many unhappy
| mistakes and several innocent people
were censured because she had spun
little idle yarns about them detri-
| mental to their characters.
I'VE must get that girl out of the
! st?dio," one of the directors finally
determined. She's one of the clever
est actresses we have, but there is
not word dropped in the studio that
| she doesn't carry outside.
"a title for a picture is suggested
she loses no time, but whispers it,
in confidence, of course, to a friend
who works for a competitor. Then
the title which we would have liked
| to keep secret takes wings and speeds
| on its way to the public.
"As the plot # story is read to
the actors or actresses, it takes just
ten minutes from the time Miss Tat
