LONDON. England. Aug. 9.-Eon-
don society has been stirred by
the revelation that some OF its titled
and most prominent members have
unwittingly be- n lending their names
to fraudulent war charity organiza-
lions. The names Of the frauds and
of the leaders of England's aristocraey
who served on committees were not
given out by the government commit
tee which made the disclosures.

Rumors that all was not straight In
the affairs OF many OF the charity.
organizations which have sprung up
since the outbreak Of the war were
heard early this year and resulted IN
the appointment of the committee. Its
report bristles with stories Of fake
charities, astounding proof or the
gullibility of mankind and the ease
wherewith distinguished persons may
be trapped into lending their names
to what is described as organized
roguery."
The report, for instance. refers to
one charity that published no ac-
counts, TO another with a merely NOM
inal committee, toAa third whose bal
ance sheet fails to account for quar-.
ter of miIlior dollars, to a fourth
started by an undischarged bankrupt,
to fifth that was the invention OF
foreign swindler. To all these the
public gave freely.
'The favorfte dodge" says the re-
port. "is really to expend the major
part of the sum collected on the nomi-
nal object and only steal twenty or
thirty thousand pounds
After calling attention to the reck-
lessness of titied and prominent peo-
pie in lending their names to these
fake charities, the committee recon-
mends state supervision throughout
registration CT charity funds.

WISCONSIN DEER PROVING PEST.
Herds In Richland County at Large
and Doing Damage to Crops.

A citizen of Avoca has written the
state conservation board asking that
something be done about the herds
of deer roaming at large in Richland
county. One herd of thirty in the
neighborhOOd of this petitioner is
somewhat of nuisance to the farm
ers as these animals have little res
pect for line fences and rather fancy
appetites for young growing crops, a
combination that is discouraging to
the agriculturist at times. And so
one of them has asked that the state,
having enacted law protecting deer
in the that county all the year round,
measure up now to it's responsibility
and provide a caretaker for it's wards.
Heretofore a similar complaint had
came from Sank county, where deer
also are protected at all times, and
yesterday a resident of BarabOO not
flied the commission that he had found
doe entangled in a wire fence and
somewhat injured. He asked permits
sion to keep and care for it until it
RECEIVERS. The permission was grant
ed, but no steps have been taken to
appoint a guardian for the Richland
county herds.-MadisOn Democrat.

EDWARDS MINING PROSPECTS.
Tungsten Mine i'm Colorado District
Brings Fancy Price.

Matthew Edwards, ST., left two
weeks ago for Colorado where he and
DeIos Edwards own mining property.
The Edwards mine is located near
Cotopaxi in Fremont county and in
the Arkansas basin. The mine con-
tains several tunnels several hundred
feet in length and silver and copper
were the ores originally worked. A
change has lately taken place in the
prospect ih that the Good Friday
claim in Boulder county recently sold
for 100000. The owners Of this
claim were w. NJ. and Chris Bracken
of Jerome, Arizona, and these gentle
men are brothers-in-law to Charles
Wamsley of Waterloo township. The
sale price was 100000 and the pur-
chaser was The Mojave Mining Co.
of New York
Mr.. Bracken was penniless last
August, being grubstaked by his
brother and another man to whom
$4,000 of the sale price goes. The
discovery of tungsten ore in Colorado
has stimulated the mining industry
greatly.
The Edwards mine is being looked
over for this valuable ore which is
said to assay in some cases almost fab
ulous amounts, and requires a minute
process to reduce the precious metal.
