DEAD MAN DRIVES AUTO
Bay Settlement Township Doctor Dies
at Wheel and Machine Con-
tinues On Its Way.

Green Bay-While walking on West
Adams street, one of the busiest
streets in this city, Howard Godfrey,
salesman for a Milwaukee firm, no
ticed the driver of an automobile trav-
cling in an opposite direction, slump
down in his seat, in seemingly state
of collapse.
Jumping on the running board of the
machine young Godfrey stopped the
car. After an investigation it was dis
closed that the occupant of the car
was DR.. E. F. Williams, SO years of
age, of Bay Settlement township, five
miles north of here, and that he had
succumbed to heart failure while driv-
ing his machine.
But for Gedfrey's quick work in
stopping the car collision with other
automobiles would have resulted.

STUDENT WIN VOTE RIGHT
Remain indefinitely in City
Establishes Residence.

Madison-In the student voting
cases, Judge E. Ray Stevens of circuit
court has decided that it is not neces-
sary that the voter should intend to
remain permanently in this city. He
holds that even an intent to return to
his home in another state at some flu
ture time does not prevent him from
acquiring a residence here if he comes
with the intention of remaining for
an indefinite time as place of pres
ent residence"
In substance, the decision of the
court means that if a student, or any
one else, comes here and establishes
his residence here for an indefinite
PERIOD he has right to vote here.
Judge Stevens held that Albert Ar
bahr, John Gross and Fred Siebold,
university students, have right to
vote here.
Randolph l.. Wadsworth, also a stu
dent, is not a qualified voter, accord
ing to the decision. The court held
that he does not state any facts show
ing an intention to remain in Madison
for any particular period Of time. His
home is in Kentucky.

MANY COMMUNITIES JOIN IN Eff
FORT TO RID STATE OF TY-
PHoID BEARERS.
GENERAL CLEAN UP URGED
Flies Are Given Credit for Destroying
More Human Lives Every Year
Than Are Killed In
Battle.

Madison - Wisconsin communities
are embarking on the greatest concert
ed fight on the typhoid fly in the
states history. This is evident from
reports coming to the state board OF
health: Never before has such great
activity against fly borne disease been
started SO early in SO many places in
this state. Many cities are already
enlisted in fly fighting campaigns
Fly swatting alone will not extermi-
nate flies, the state health department
warns. OF first importance is a gem
eral cleaning up of the premises and
the removal of all breeding places.
Flies can best be exterminated by
starving them out.
With warm weather nearly here,
flies are awaking from their winter
lethargy. Once allowed to propagate,
millions of their descendants will soon
horde the premises. carrying disease
germs wherever they alight. The
house fly, with capacity for carry
ing 100000 bacteria at once, is cred.
tied with destroying every year more
people than are killed in battle. It's
designation as the typhoid fly was CIV
en- by government scientists because
of its progress with disease germs
from all sorts of filthy places to the
dinner table.

Rising Mississippi-River Claims
Six Within Week.

BLUM Siding-Two sisters, Josephine
and Theodosia Wiczorek, q and 10
years old, respectively, were drowned
IN the high water of the Mississippi
river within a short distance of the
place where the P. B. Crogan family
OF four met a similar death a week
ago.
The younger girl drove from her
home in. this village to Winona, Mimi.
directly opposite, across the river. to
meet her sister. When the girls, re-
turning home, reached the turnpike
leading from the high wagon bridge
across the river, a short distance from
the Wisconsin shore, the horse be-
came frightened.
The older girl leaped from the bug
gy and ran behind it. The frightened
horse backed the buggy upon her and
she fell into the swift water. In an
other moment her sister, still in the
buggy, was plunged to death in the icy
current. The bodies were recovered
short time afterward. The horse
also was drowned.
Including the Crogan family, whose
home was near Galesville, six persons

Efficient Friend Of the Allies.

Col. Isaac N Lewis, y. S. A., re-
tired, who has been authorized by the
French government to construct an
ordnance factory at ST. Etienne for
the manufacture of the Lewis rapid
fire gun, is an American, whose In
vention was submitted to the war de-
partment while he was on the active
list. and was not accepted. He then
tried Germany, who, quickly realizing
the Importance of the weapon, asked
for the sole right to use and manufac-
ture the gun, but was refused Next
he tried England. The British gov
eminent consented to the sale OF the
guns to her allies, but at that time
would not guarantee to purchase all
that Colonel Lewis could manufac-
ture. so he went to Belgium, where
he was given orders without restric-
tons. Final delivery was only twenty
DAYS before the European war broke
out. The Belgians were the only sol
diers having the Lewis guns. The
English army is being supplied from
the Birmingham factory. France will
receive the gun in large quantities
as soon as the new Etienne plant is
ready.

TEACHER LOSES FIGHT
FOR REINSTATEMENT
Wilson Bruce Evans Refused Man.
damus to Compel Education
Beard to Restore Him.

Justice stafford of the District SUI
preme Court today rendered an opinion
refusing a mandamus to Wilson Bruce
Evans colored. to compel the board OF
education to restore him to the position
of principal of Armstrong Training
School and as director OF colored night
schools. The court holds that the evi-
dence does not satisfy him of the truth
of the charge made by the plaintiff that
the ineffi1iency alleged AS the ground
of his removal vas mere pretenSe
and that he was actually removed for
other supposed causes, as to which he
had a right to be heard and was not ac-
corded such opportunity, and that the
board had proceeded in bad talth by as
serting ineficiency to avoid a trial OF
the real cause.
Justice Stafford points out that the
court is without authority to act rs
cour: of appeals from the decision OF
the board of education. The beard haV-
ing reached its decision Il: %oou faith
says the court. and III accordance with
its honest belief touching EVaGH quail
ifcatlons. its decision. even II mis-
taken, cannot be rVerruled.
There was evidence, the court admits,
tending to show that Evans was in fact
efficient and that the finding of the
board TO the contrary as well as the
recommendation of The superintendent
upon whicn the order of removal was
partly based were the result of un-
fair representation concerning him in
respect 10 his efficiency. but that is
not enough, the court finds. to entitle
him to Il writ of mandamuS.
Touching the claim of Attorney A. A
Birney for Mr.. Evans that the removal
of the petitioner as director of night
schools was illegal because it was not
recommended in writing by the super
intcndent himself as required by law.
the court suggests that the recon-
mendation had been prepared by the
then superintendent of schools. and he
mad intended to sign it. but he was
suddenly called away from the city it
was. in fact signed by an assistant su-
perintendent.
The court expressed the conviction
that the mere fact that the superin-
tendent did not personally sign the
recommendation is not enough in such
circumstances TO make a removal based
in part thereon illegal

ems represented the board of education.
