AN APPEAL TO WARM HEARTED
WAUWATOSANS.

Help must come from America at
once to save hundreds of thousands of
destitute Armenians from certain
starvation within the coming weeks.
These survivors of the dastardly at
tempt of Turkey to assassinate a ma
ton are not the scum of humanity,
but a noble Christian people, ready,
like their unfortunate relatives and
friends, to die for their faith.
The American Committee for Arne-
MAN and Syrian Relief says that $780,
100000 will be needed to prevent
widespread death by starvation and
disease during the months of this VIM
ter. How much of this will you give =?
No government aid is available. The
United States and other governments
appropriate millions of dollars for the
relief of women and children of Bel
GUM, France and other lands. But
the Armenians, Syrians and Greek
Christians of western Asia are scat
tered races to which the United States
cannot legally make loan.
A missionary writes: eve Syrians
stretch out our hands to you, o rich
America, begging for bread; for at
least one warm garment. l wish the
people in America would think of
these poor people as they get into
their comfortable beds at night"
All gifts go for relief-none for ex-
penses.
All gifts may be left at the bank or
sent direct to Cleveland H. Dodge,
treasurer, 1 Madison avenue, New
York.
"But whose hath the worlds goods,
and beholdeth his brother in need, and
shutteth up his compassion from him,
how doth the love of God abide in
him ?" l John 8: II.

tees strict economy puts herself in
the ranks Of those who serve the ma
ton. This is the time for America to
correct her objectionable fault OF
wastefulness and extravaganza. Let
every man and every woman assume
the duty Of careful, provident use and
expenditure as public duty, as die
tate of patriotism which no one can
now expect ever to be excused or for
given for ignoring.

the needs of the nation and of the
world in this hour Of supreme crisis
may stimulate those TO whom it comes

of the solemn duties Of time such as
the world has never seen before, ] beg

gest, also, TO all advertising agencies

EARLY GARDEN CARES
AND PAINTINGS

The horticultural specialist OF the
Agricultural Extension Service Oh the
University of Vermont says, concern
inc early garden crops under Vermont
conditions. asparagus deserves space
in every garden. 1t produces its ed

veretsbles can be grown, and peh
once started is good for ten years or

hreak ground, harrow and cultivate
thoroughly, throwing up a low loose
ridge over rows. Cultivate frequently
during the cutting season and keep
down weeds during summer. IL your
garden has no asparagus bed, plan 10
put one in this spring.
Rhubarb deserves some space anu
soil should be loosened around plants
early to let in air and heat. Plan 10
force two or three plants and pring
them along from one to three weeks
ahead of normal time; a glass Top
hoy with fresh manure around IL Will
nroduce three weeks gain, and po&
or barrel cut in half will insure a gam
of one week.
AS soon as frost is out, plow the
garden and plant some seed. fiah'

PERU TURNPIKE FREE
TO AUTOMOBILES
Supreme Court Holds Collection OF
Tolls Not 10 be Legal. State Will
Pay Minimum Price.

IaN hluiUuU biSSs
Automobiles no longer will be
charged a toll for passage over the
Peru turnpike. The road will be taken
over by the State anyway within a
few months, and after that all traffic
will be free, but until then the toll
road proprietors will have the priv
ilege of sitting on the fence and see
ing automobile parties go by.
The supreme court Of Vermont has
decided that it is not legal for the
Peru Turnpike Co, TO charge toll of
automobiles passing over this widely
known stretch of road, information TO
that effect having been received by
Attorney Robert c. Bacon of the
states counsel Friday from Sherman
Moulton of Burlington, reporter of
supreme court decisions.
Moreover, inasmuch as automobile
tolls are illegal it would seem that
persons who have paid tolls on auto
mobiles might be able to recover them
by legal action if they felt so disposed.
When Allen M. Fletcher was gov
ernor the legislature decided that the
state should take over the old toll
road, the last remaining one in New
England, and in due time legal pro-
ceedings were held to determine the
value of the franchise, which is the
property of the Peru Turnpike Co.,
John j. Flynn of Burlington being the
principal owner.
Two prices were decided upon, the
maximum to be paid in case it was
decided that it was legal TO collect toll
on automobiles, on the principle that
the franchise would be worth more
under such a condition, and a mini
mum to be paid in case it was held
otherwise.
The Peru Turnpike Co. claimed that
it was entirely within its rights te
collect toll from automobiles, while
the state contended that the com
pany's charter did not confer upon il
the right to assess automobiles. The
states contention was that the com
pany could collect toll only from
pedestrians and such vehicles as were
| cnncifiod in its charter
After a hearing before Chancellor
Frank l.. Fish, at which Attorne!
General Herbert G. Barber and AT
torney Robert C. Bacon appeared fol
the state and Attorneys f. c. Archi
bald of Manchester, and Rufus Il
Brown of Burlington, represented tn
company, the chancellor decided tina
automobile tolls were collectible an'
that the company was entitled to tn
maximum figure.
From this decision the state appeal
ed to the supreme court, and Thursda,
that body filed its decision reversin,
the decision of the chancellor, whicl
means that automobiles go free an
that the minimum price for the prop
erty will be paid by the state.

HAPGOOD REDIVIVUS

At the mock session Of the Legisla-

was afterwards reduced TO the follow

the members and possibly may induce
them TO consent TO a reelection.

Coons Attack Children;
Girl Bitten 80 Times

New York, July 6. - Two raccoons
attacked a group of children at Dobbs
Ferry last, night and injured one girl
dangerously.
The children were playing on the
old Croton aqueduct where IL passes
through the property of Edwin Gould
when the animals came along. Scream
ing. the young folk ran toward Cedar
street. The 'coons caught Rosa
Grande, eight years old, and pulled her
to the ground.
They bit her with a fury probab bly,
born of intense hunger. Her clothes
were torn into shreds. Elliott BRAY
and Vincent Costello ran up. The rae
coons showed fight. Bray and Cos

snarling beasts away from the child,
but the raccoons kept fighting until

Bloomington. Ill. July e.-Nine

men. comprising l.400 men, were or
dered to this city early to-day to re-

ing caused by the strike of employees
OF the Bloomington and Normal Rail-

has been in progress for several
weeks and has been conducted in an
orderly manner until last night. when
Mother" Jones. labor advocate, de-

following the meeting, the crowd be-
gan attacking street cars and the
crews, several motormen and con-
ductors being badly beaten. One man
in the crowd of rioters was shot
through the neck.
After breaking up several street
cars, the crowd started for the power
house of the street railway line which
furnished power and light for COM
mercial purposes in this city. In or
der to avert damage at the power

power. The crowd remained for an
hour or more, shouting. and then
started on another march.
more street cars were wTeCheQ ana
then the offices of the company were
attacked and a number of windows
smashed. Mayor Jones and Sheriff
Flesher met the crowd and urged
them to desist from further rioting
but they demanded that the officers
arrange a conference with the off,
cials of the railway company. This
they promised to do, and then the
crowd demanded that a prisoner taken
during the evening be released. This
the sheriff did and the crowd dis
persed
Mayor Jones then sent a message
to Governor Lowden, asking for
troops. as there is fear of another
outbreak, should the proposed con-
ference not materialize or the men
fail to obtain their demand for higher
wages.
At S o'clock this morning the city
was quiet, although there were per-
sistent rumors that the mob was
again forming. At this hour no troops
had arrived and it was said Mayor
Jones had ordered the powerhouse
closed during the arrival of troops.
The morning newspaper has been un-
able to publish owing to lack of cleo
