THOUGHT HE WAS INSANE
BUT X-RAY PROVES HE'S RIGHT

Kenosha, Wis, Dec. 10-Three
months ago, Geo. Rvrton, 45 years Of
age, and a we'll known resident of the
village of Bristol, was adjudicated in
sane and sent to an asylum The doc
tors declared that he suffered from
hallucinations and the most vivid of
his Authorizations was that he had an
open pocket knife in his right thigh.
He declared that he had been as
saulted on the road and that the men
assaulting him had uriyen the knife
into his body There was not mark
on the body and the doctors decided
it was all a hallucination and sent him
to the asylum.
Today application is being made to-
restore him to citizenship He has
been examined by X-ray and the open
pocket knife is shown driven into the
flesh of the right hip. Surgeons fear
that the man will die. Efforts to get
any facts in regard to rne men guilty
of the assault have been futile.

LOWLY OPERATOR
COMES INTO OWN

The operators in the Burlington
railroad have been granted a Is per
cent increase in wages, with other
liberal concessions. The increase is
effective from August 1, so that the
operators will receive a substantial
amount back pay for the last three
or four months. The new wages are
figured on 26-day month basis, with
overtime for Sundays. The eight
hour day is also made effective, and
the men are to receive two weeks Va
cation each year on full pay. Hereto
fore, while three tricks have been in
vogue at almost all of the principal
points, these tricks overlapped, and
the operators usually worked nine
hours. But hereafter the eight-hour
day will be observed strictly. The
average operator will now receive
about $50 month"; for weekday work
and with Sunday time figured in, many
of them will make $97.75 a month.

ter, following Monroe's appeal. The
sum In question was $500 and costs.
In the case Of Geo. Louthain VS..
Fred Schlinder the supreme court
held that Schlinder as the owner of

INSURANCE PLAN FOR
SOLDIERS AND SAILORS

Washington, D. c., Dec. 10-The
act which provides for government life
insurance for soldiers and sailors has
now been in operation a little more
than a month. The secretary of the
treasury announced on Nov. II, that
up to that date 64,168 applications
under the new law had been received.
representing insurance in the sum
Of. $552,O99, 900
From four to six thousand appli-
cations are received each day at the
treasury department, the amount Of
insurance applied for sometimes
reaching a total of fifty million dol
lars in a single day.
The law provides that soldiers,
sailors, marines and nurses in active
service may obtain from the govern
ment, life insurance in amounts not
exceeding $4,000 at premium rates
ranging from 65 cents a month at the
age of 81 years to $1.20 month at
the age Of 81 years, for each $1,000
of insurance.
One Of the primary objects OF this
law is to lesson the tremendous bur
den of pensions which has followed
as a consequence Of all American
wars.

Mrs. E. H. Moon of Cassville in ad-
vance for a weeks room rent the lat
ter thought he was good and let him
have lodging without pay. The next
morning Mr.. and Mrs. Moon found the
lodger had departed taking articles

ing himself to be life insurance
agent and friend of Dr. Miller of

AUTO OWNERS HAVE WHIMS
ON MOTOR LICENSE NUMBERS

Madison, Wis.-John G. Hyland, a
Madison grocer, will continue to be
the envy Of thousands of Wisconsin
automobile owners by retaining pos
session Of automobile license No. l.
To forestaI competition he has APP
piled for and been promised renewal
of that number.
Secretary Of state, Merlin Hull has
received hundreds of reservations for
special numbers, many Of them re-
quests for lucky numbers Some per-
sons desire to have their telephone
number reproduced on the car. 9th
ers have had the same number in the
family SO long that it has become
part of their records. There is a call
tor special numbers every year, and
arrangements are made to accomo-
date such requests whenever possible.

ALLIES PLEASED BY
STAND OF U. S.

London, Dec. 10.-President Will
sons demand upon the American con-
gross for a declaration of war against
Austria Hungary caused wave of
rejoicing throughout every allied
country in Europe today
It is believed that the American ex-
ecutives action will be Of big value
to the entente in two directions. First
it viii increase the. depression and
pessimism that already regins in the
dual monarchy.
Second it will enable the United
States to send troops into other fields
of action besides France and will en-
able the allies to carry out their new
policy Of absolute unity and coordi-
nation without obstacles.
The presidents message was heart
lily received III London, Paris and
Rome and newspaper comment upon
it is Of the most favorable character
The firm, strong tone of the message
and the declaration that America is in
the war with all her means and all
her resources. until it is won have
given fresh confidence to the allies
That it will have a decided effect
on the German people if published in
Germany il it's entirety was accept
ed as g foregone conclusion.

High Lights From
Presidents Message

President Wilson delivered q mes
sage to the entire civilized world on
Tuesday when he read one of the most
remarkable state papers ever filed in
Washington to the Joint session Of
congress. It was a statement of facts
in language that even the kaiser will
need to have no interpreter translate
for him. His attitude is firmly given
in language that can not be mistaken
rCr misunderstood.
The following are some high lights
from President Wilson'S message de-
livered before a Joint session of con-
gress on Tuesday:
One very embarrassing obstacle that
stands in our way is that we are at
war with Germany, but not with her
allies, I, therefore, very earnestly
recommend that the congress imme-
diately declare the United States in a
state of war with Austria-H Hungary.
Our present and immediate task is
to win the war and nothing shall turn
us aside from it until is is accom-
plished.
Every power and every resource we
possess, whether Of men, of money or
of materials, is being devoted and will
continue to be devoted to that pur-
pose until it is achieved.
Any peace that America makes must
not only deliver the people and the
lands of Belgium and northern France
from Prussian conquest, but also

must deliver the people of Austria
Hungary, the Balkans and Turkey
from the impudent and Prussian mill
tary and commercial autocracy.
First, this intolerable thing Of which
the masters of Germany have shown
us the ugly face, this menace of com
bined intrigue and force which we
now see SO clearly as the German
power, a thing without conscience or
honor Or capacity for covenanted
peace, must be crushed.
The thought of the plain people
throughout the world is the air all
governments must henceforth breathe
if they would live.
We intend no wrong against the
German empire, no interference with
her internal affairs.
The wrongs, the very deep wrongs,
committed in this war will have to be
righted.
We are seeking permanent, not tenn
porary foundations for the peace of
the world, and must seek them can
didly and fearlessly.
We shall regard the war as won
only when the German people say to
us, through properly accredited rep
resentatives, that they are ready to
agree to a settlement based on justice
and the reparation of the wrongs their
rulers have done. They have done a
wrong to Belgium that must be re-
paired
