ings Placed BY insurance Commits
sioner in Class With Brick.

Madison-A reduction la insurance
rates which may approximate a saw
ing of s500,O0O annually, was ordered
by the insurance department and will
go into effect on August 1, This &C
,tion is taken under the regulation law
enacted at the last session of the leg
islature.
The order issued by Insurance Com
missioner Cleary under which this re-
duction will be accomplished provides
that mercantile buildings of frame,
iron clad and brick veneer construc-
ton shall on and after August /, 1917,
be given the same term privilege as

MRS. MUSsO is PARDONED
Woman Serving Life Term for Killing
Husband Released by Phillip as
Death Draws Near.

Milwaukee-Mrs Carmello Musso,
serving life sentence in Waupun fol-
lowing her conviction for the murder
OF her husband Joseph, has been par
doned by Gov Philip because she is
dying of tuberculosis. She was
brought IT, Milwaukee and will be
cared for by relatives.
Mrs. Musso was convicted Of muir
der in the first degree largely on the
testimony of Rosa Degratione, a
niece, who swore that Mrs. MussO
strangled her husband to death. The
case was unusual because of the rarity
with which convictions are secured in
the cases of crime in the Italian colony
of the lower Third ward.
Susie Wodjak. another woman COM
mitted to Waupun for life on convic-
tion of having murdered her husband,
was ordered transferred to some sana-
torium by the governor, She, too, Is
suffering from the white plague. She
will probably be taken to Wales.

BARLEY MENACE APPEARS
Sounds Warning to Farmers to
Save Crop Of Next Year.

Madison-Dean H. L. Russell of the
college of agriculture sounded a
warning to the farmers of Wisconsin
which must be needed if the 1913 crop
Of barley is to be up to standard.
Investigation by county agents
working with the state council of de-
fense has proved that the 1917 crop,
supposed to be abundant from the ap-
pearance of an average field. will be
injured by the presence Of disease
recently developed. In some fields
the loss will be nominal, ranging from
4 to per cent. but in other fields the
loss has been found as high as 36 per
cent
THE remedy must be applied dur
ing the coming winter" says Dean
Russell. "It is simple. All the farmer
requires is a solution of formaldehyde
with which the seed for his 1913 barley
fields must be treated This will Grad
icate not only the disease with which
we now are contending, buJ 4lso bar
ley smut"

YEARS WAR BUDGET
FIRST PERIOD OF WAR TO COST
sto,7s5, ,eo7 900.
War Tax Bill Is ReVised-Loans Extra
and More Than 6,5oo,00o,0oo
Added Revenue.

Washington, July 30.-Secretary Nc
Adoo, submitting estimates TO congress
for the new war budget, said the first
year Of the war promised now to cost
s. 0. .y36. 100000, exclusive of loans to
the allies. making it necessary to raise
more than $G.5O0,O0O.0OO additional
revenue.
The war tax bill as revised by the
senate finance committee provides for
only n little more than 81 ,500.0 100000
In additional revenue The $5,000,000-
600 discrepancy probably will be made
up partly by increasing the bill's
ievies and partly by bond issue.
Besides the estimate Of more than
$5,000O00,00O additional expenses sub
mitted by the war department, Mr.. Nc
Adno presented estimates from other
departments totaling upward Of 81 900
100000. All these estimates are for
expenditures during the year ending
next July, and are in addition to more
than $3,O00000.000 already appropri-
ated since the war began
The largest items In the estimates
are $350.O00OOO for the shipping board
and 1888. 100000 for the navy. For the
food survey to be made under pending
legislation S11 000.000 was requested.
Loans to our allies and possible
emergencies may take the total cost of
the first year Of the war mp 10 S15,000,-
100000 or possibly $4,000 O0O,0O0.
Against these totals figures submitted

Narrow Escape From Death.

Two young persons OF Washington
county, Md, had an exceedingly narrow
escape from death last Sunday night about
10 o'clock, when a Ford runabout in
which they were driving was struck and
demolished by helper engine on the
B. & O. Railroad at the dangerous cross
ing on the ShepherdStown and Martins
burg road just west OF Wineorenner'S
Cross Roads. They were Lloyd MoSer,
son OF o. o. Moser, OF Fairplay, and
Miss Mary Brashears, aged seventeen
years, daughter OF George BrashearS, OF
Sharpsburg. They were on their way
from Sharpsburg 10 Martinsburg, and
just as they got fairly on the track a big
helper engine, running backward, on its
way TO Brunswick, struck the car. Mr..
MoSer and Miss BraShearS were both
thrown out and clear OF the track, while
the engine rolled the car along the road
bed and completely demolished it. The
crew of the engine stopped the locomotive
at once and ran back TO the assistance OF
the unfortunate couple, and in few mo-
ments several automobiles containing
other persons were also at the scene.
The young lady was hurt the worst. 1t
was at first thought that her thighs or her
back were broken, but later examination
showed that in addition TO cuts ard
bruises she had been pierced and bruised
on the thigh. The young mans worst
injury was a bad cut on his head and a
cash near his eye. An ambulance took
Miss Brashears to the Kings Daughters
Hospital in Martinsburg, where she was
given surgical attention, while Mr. Moser
was taken to the City Hospital. They
were both able TO leave the hospitals a
couple OF days later.

Public Protest On Road Selection.

A meeting OF residents OF Shepherds
town and vicinity was held in the old
college hall in this place last Saturday, 10
protest against the designation OF Class
A roads tor ShepherdStoWn district as
proposed by the State Road Commission
er. The proposed plan was opposed by
every person present, for the reason that
il gives no direct road from Shepherds
town 10 the county seat and because it is
Unfair in that it gives this district only
about seven miles of the II miles OF Class
A roads in the county. E. L. GoldSbor-
ough was chairman OF the meeting. The
following resolutions were passed unan-
imouSly:
Resolved that The people OF Shepherds
town district here assembled do earn
eStly protest against the designation OF
Class A roads as proposed by the State
Road Commission, inaSmuch as it gives
this district no road leading directly 10
the county seat of Jefferson county, nor
any direct road 10 the county seat OF any
other county in this or adjoining States,
and is maniteStlY unjust and unSatiStac-
tory IN that il gives ShepherdStoWn dis
frict only about seven miles OF the pro-
posed Seventy-one miles OF Class A roads
in this county.
Resolved, that we urge our County
Court TO reject this proposition unless the
injustice to ShepherdStown district is cor
erected and we hereby SXpreSS our firm
belief that the plan Shoucd not be accept
ed unless it gives us at least one good
Class A road to the county seat, prefer
ably the turnplck by way OF HalltoWn.
Resolved, that our County Court be re-
quested TO meet in special session 10 re-
open the road question, and give the
people OF ShepherdStown an opportunity
TO be heard in opposition 10 the present
