dent c. c. Thach has seen fit to appoint
DR.. George Peltier from the University
of Illinois as successor to DR.. F. A.
Wolf. Although comparatively a
young man, DR.. Peltier's name is by
no means new to scientists and horti-
culturists in general, for his articles
on plant diseases have been widely
read and very highly commended. A
series of his articles appeared in the
FLORISTS Review" the best trade pa
per in the country on the diseases of
greenhouse plants and have saved ev-

paper. We welcome DIR. Peltier most
heartily and trust his stay will be
long and prosperous to all concern

sa Saturday night. The farmer
claimed that he had been robbed of his
wallet which contained a goodly sum
of money. His story as telephoned
back to the Nekoosa police was that
he had been robbed either on the train
or in the station before he took the
train. He said three men had been in
the waiting room with him and he
thought they were the ones who had
taken his pocket book.
A thorough examination of the sus-
poets by District Attorney John Rob-
erts held at the Jail furnished proof
conclusive enough that they had not
robbed the farmer.
Inquiry at Nekoosa brought out the
information that the farmer had not
been heard from since he made the
complaint.

Mrs. Whitman starting the action
and charging her husband with cruel
and inhuman treatment. The di-
vorce was granted, Fisher, Hanna

month the couple decided to live to-
gether again SO the case was nolled
and the divorce set aside by an
order of the court.
Mr.. and Mrs. Whitman lived to-
gether until about a month ago when
the second divorce proceedings were
begun and the case is now pending.
Mr.. Whitman is obtaining the d. |
vorce this time, his attorneys being
Nelson and Hanna while his wife is
represented by Fisher & Cashin. The
charge is the same. The stipula-
ton agrees that Mr.. Whitman gets
the divorce and arranges for the
settlement.
Mrs. Whitman is to have the Gus
today of her two minor sons. She |
and the boys are residing in this
'ity. Mr.. Whitman is living on his |

From Mondays Daily.
Gasoline which trickled down into
the pan under one Of the gasoline
stoves in the Lunch Car, caught fire
and caused an explosion shortly be-
fore noon today. The fire had nearly
been extinguished with Pyrene fire
extinguisher, when the flames leaped
to the gasoline reservoir which i'm.
mediately blew up. The fire then
spread to the wood work, but prompt
action by the east side fire company
soon had the blaze extinguished.
W. F. Conley, the proprietor, esti-
mated the damage at about 5000, and
said there was no insurance on it. He
Immediately commenced to clean up
the car and repair it. The place will
be open for business again tomorrow.

the whole side of his head off.
The shot gun had been loaded by the

away some chicken thieves Saturday
night and the cartridge had been left
