GOLDEN CROWN OF
LOMBARD Is COVETED
(Associated Press Correspondence. J

Milan Feb. 24.--The treasure at
Mon2a, about nine miles north Of here,
which the Austrians are credited with
desiring to seize if they could get at
the place more effectively than by ae-
roplane raid is the iron crown OF
Lombardy. It is really golden
crown, but round the inside runs a
trip of iron, reputed to be nail of
the true cross, brought back by the
Empress Helena from Palestine.
The rulers of Lombardy are said to
have been crowned with this piece
ever since the seventh century. 1t was
used in the coronations of Charles ",
Napoleon. and the Austrian Emperor
Ferdinand in 1898. The Austrians
carried it off in 1859, at the time when
they lost Lombardy, and Francis Jo-
seph may possibly have tried it on in
private. But it was restored in 1866.

Summary or Var
NetUs of YESTERDAY

| Driving hard against the French
| line northwest and southeast of YER
dun, the Germans have been enabled
/ to make additional gains toward
/ Nerdun. but with extremely heavy
casualties, according to Paris. Hill
No. 265 to the southeast and a por-
/ tion Of Corbeaux wood. directly south
of Forges, have been occupied by the
Germans through strong infantry at
tacks that were preceded by extremely
heavy bomhardments. The town of
Frcsnes in the Woevre also has been
captured.
The German attack was over the
entire front west Of the Meuse ex-
tending from Bethincourt to the river,
but except in the Corbeaux wood and
at Hill No. 265 the French set back
the attackers at all points. Thus the
French still occupy the important
strategic position ON the heights of
the Cote de EOie, for the possession
of which numerous sanguinary en-
gagements have been fought
The occupation Of portion of the
Corbeaux wood would indicate that
the Germans have advanced over
three miles since they took the town
Of Forges
The Germans succeeded in penetra-
ting a French redoubt in the region
Of Douaumont, but were thrown out
Immediately in a eounter-attack.
The reeapture by the Germans Of
a position from the French in Cham
pagne the pushing Of the German
line farther forward in the Argonne
forest and the expulsion of small
British detachments from captured
German trenches northeast of Yer
melles. are related in the latest Ger
man official report The British are
defending the famous Hohenzollern
redoubt position against German
bombing attacks.
In the British house Of commons,
Colonel Winston Spencer Churchill
former first lord Of the admiralty, has
taken issue with A. J. 3alfour, the
present first ord and has charged.
that the admiralty lacks driving power
and needs more vitality
Colonel Churchill came direct from
the trenches, to sound note of warm
ing lie predicted that since the out
break Of the war the German navy
would be found to have been greatly
augmented. and he expressed the
hope that the British program Of con-
struction had been carried out to the
all requirements He clearly inti-
mated, however, that it had not been.
Colonel Churchill also urged the re-
appointment Of Baron Fisher to the
Admiralty to re-vitalize aud animate
that department.
Despite the report from Rome that
twenty German dreadnaughts have
come into the North sea from their
base at kiel, and other reports which
seemed to presage the iminence of a
naval battle. nothing definite has
come through TO show that German
warships are outmaneuvering or seek
ing battle.

Washington. March THE suit TO

of New York, who sought foreclosure
on the charge that interest on

The suit was first heard in the fed

dismiss the suit The motion was
granted by Judge f. Il, Meek, ON the

ed by an act of congress in 1915,
which said no federal court shall try

eording to the defense, was granted a
charter by congress in 1871, and that,

The major portion of the Dallas
hearing was occupied by arguments on
the dismissal motion. At the outset
Of the trial an intervening petition was

motion was dismissed.
The defense then moved to dismiss

FORMER MADISON STUDENT AND
WIFE MAKE STARTLING
DISCOVERY THROUGH
LOCkET

After nine years of happy married
life, Mr. and Mrs. Roger Newton OF
Globe, Arizona, have discovered that
they are brother and sister.
Newton, whose real name is George
Porter, was the son of carpenter in
Spokane, Washington. The family
was poor, and when the father was
injured by a fall from a ladder, little
George was placed in an orphanage.
A few months later he was adopted
by a family that moved to the east
and his parents lost all trace of him.
His adopted parents gave him good
education, paying his expenses at the
University of Wisconsin. After leav-
ing college, young Porter, who had
taken the name OF Newton from his

RELATIVE OF MRS. w. n. NEWELL
AT SAN ANTONIO WONDERS
IF BARA1OO HAS ANY
BOYS THERE

A letter received by Mrs. W. II.
Newell, 1921 East street, from her
sister. Mrs. Baumgardner, who lives
in San Antonio, Texas, reads as fol-
lows:
"I have been wondering if any
Baraboo boys are in the moblllza-
ton camp here? I might contrive to
help keep some of them. out OF mis-
chief if I knew about them. The Y.
M. C. A. has erected a very substan-
tial building at the camp as has the
Jewish Young Mems association also.
Nevertheless this city has many sa-
looms and the soldier boys do not
seem to be kept busy all the time, for
they go about the streets in crowds.
So it has become necessary to estab-
lish provost guard in the city to as
sist the police in preventing brawls
between the soldiers and the Mexl-
cans-or between the soldiers them
selves sometimes.
Camp Wilson is a big place, with
water mains, shower baths, electric
lights, refreshment stands. chapel,
etc. All the civilian employees have
signed a contract for one year.

here for some time. They are inn

cif1c northwest, where he engaged in
the insurance business. 1t was while
living in Portland, Ore, that he met
his sister, Miss Elizabeth Porter, who
was attending a girls seminary there.
The pair became infatuated, and en-
tirely ignorant Of the relation exist
ing between them, were married.
That was nine years ago. The other
day while searching through an old
trunk, Newton found a long-lost lock-
ct. He pried it open, and found that
it contained a tin-type likeness of his
parents, given him when he went to
the .orphanage in 1880. When he
showed it to his wife she tainted
away. The picture was one of her
own father and mother, taken years
ago. She had known Of a brother,

on their way to Eugene, Ore, to visit

SPEAKS THURSDAY
At COURT HOUSE
CANDIDATE FOR SENATOR CRITI-
CIZES LA FOLLETTE'S STAND
ON CERTAIN QUESTIONS

Malcolm G.. Jeffris, candidate for the
Republican nomination for United
States senator, arrived in Baraboo
Thursday on the afternoon train after
speaking in Reedsburg at the fair. He
addressed an audience in this city last
evening at 8 o'clock, speaking from
the courthouse steps. He was intro
duced by Attorney F. r. Bentley OF
this city who met Mr.. Jeffris on his
arrival and introduced him to several
citizens who gathered as the train
drew into the station.
Mr. Jeffris directed his speech large.
ly against his opponent, Senator Rob
ert M. La Toilette. He stated that the
latter was being helped by some OF
the most prominent politicians in the
country, the ablest of speakers, while
he, Jeffris, was waging a lone, single
handed fight. He said that the pres
ent senator was catering to the for.
eign vote, that he evidenced this by
his stand on the embargo question, a
measure that if passed would cripple
our foreign trade The speaker here
took occasion to commend the stand
taken by the German-Americans, say
ing that it was but natural that they
should sympathize with their mother
country and that they would not be
good American citizens if they did not
do so.
He censured La Follette's stand on
the tariff question, claiming that the
latter's vote was detrimental to Wis
consin's home products. He criticized
President Wilson's Mexican policy of
Watchful waiting, and added that as
president he would support him. but
as candidate he had a perfect right
to ta6e exception to his acts. He said
that while the presidents slogan was
that this country was too proud to
fight, he would state that the Repub-
lican stand would be that this country
was too big, too broad and too well
prepared to fight.
Mr.. Jeffris hit La Toilette on his
vote on the question of preparedness,
saying that the latter claimed that
the move was simply to secure con-
tracts for "big business" He laughed
at the idea of leaving the question of
war to a vote of the people. He said
that he was for a simple, economical
ballot, while La Toilette was in favor
OF complex one. He said that too
much regulation was not good and
recited an instance of five different
state inspectors visiting one merchant
on the same day.
The candidate thought that La Fol-
lette had held the office of senator
long enough, and suggested that the
people give somebody else a trial.

LIGHTNING HITS
IN THREE PLACES
(From Saturdays daily.)

About 8 o'clock this morning during
the thunder shower in Baraboo light
ming struck the home of c. II. Even
son on Fourth avenue. A few shin
giles were ripped off the roof and the
bolt then entered one Of the bedrooms,
circled the room at the moulding, TAX
ing off the enamel from the wood,
slick and clean, and leaving the room
looking as if it had been sprinkIed
with a flour sitter. The lightning did
no further damage and apparently
went out of the house via the electric
light wires.
Mrs. Evenson had left the bed room
a few minutes before and was in the
kitchen when the flash occurred. AS
the house was struck she saw ball
of fire before her for an instant, but
suffered no injury. The damage to
the house was slight.
Tree Struck on Elizabeth
A tree at the northwest corner of
the home Of Thomas ]. Burton on
Elizabeth street was struck by light
ming during the storm last night and
badly splintered. Do damage resulted
to the house or it's occupants.
Strikes S. S. Church
Lightning also struck the steeple OF
the South Side NJ E. church this morn
ing. Little damage resulted; a few
bricks were knocked down and sew
.eral birds nests destroyed.
