Germans Get Dose of Own
Medicine,

London, Dec. 6.-When the Bel
gians entered Aix-la-Chapelle they
compelled the ,Prussians to doff their
hats in respect to the flags and uni
forms of Belgium. They laid down
martial law in a proclamation that
was almost identical in language to
that imposed by the Germans in Bel
gium, according to delayed dispatch
from AK today.
Ten hostages were forced to
salute the Belgian officers. The in
habitants were ordered to remain in
doors at night. All cafes and
theaters were closed and no public
meetings were permitted. The Prus-
slams are scrupulously obeying the
regulations.

SALOONS TO CLOSE SUN. EVENINGS

A mass meeting of ssloon-keepers OF
Manitowoc county was held at Blue
Ribben hall on Washington street
Monday. The meeting was called to
consider Sunday evening closing which
had become an issue because OF large
percentage OF men working on govern
ment work, particularly at the ship
yard, not reporting for duty Mondays.
talks were made by Mayor John
Schroeder. district attorney Brady,
Charles kulnick of the brewers Co.
and Gilbert Thompson of the Labor
Council. The plan of closing all sa-
looms in the county from & o'clock Pm.
Sunday until o'clock Monday morn
ing was adopted. The saloons run in
connection with dance halls few miles
out frJ the city will be hard hit as
Sunday evenings have furnished large
part of their revenue. The suggestion
was made that dealers who violate the
g o'clock sunday closing rule will be
prosecuted under the state Sunday
closing statue. This might he dang
erous law for saloon men to invoke to
enforce voluntary agreement.
The thing that forced this action
from the saloon men was doubtless the
fear of the government declaring five
mile zone within which saloons cannot
operate at all as was done at Clinton
Vile where some saloon keepers per-
sisted in selling liquor to the soldiers
at the motor truck factory. The new
rule in force here also inhibits the sale
Of liquor to be taken from the premises.

MRS. 0EMUNCK FREED.

Mrs. Eliza DeMunck of Kiel, this
county, was arrested by Sheboygan
county officials two weeks ago on
charge of having murdered her hus.
band by administering arsenic to him.
The preliminary examination to deter
mine whether or not there was suific-
lent evidence TO hold her for trial was
held at Sheboygan this week with
District Attorney Charles Voigt re.
presenting the state and A. L. Hougen
of this city the defendant. A number
of medical experts were produced by
the state, some of whom claimed to
have discovered traces OF arsenical
poisoning and others degeneration OF
the organs produced by slow arsenical
poisoning leaving no direct trace of the
poison. Mr.. Hopgen subjected them
to rigid cross s-examnation and on his
motion and almost without argument
Court Commissioner Phalen, before
whom the examination was held, ruled
that the states testimony utterly failed
to establish reasonable ground for as
suming that Mr.. DeMunck came to his
death by other than natural causes or
that defendant caused his death. Mrs.
Munck was discharged from custody.
A will which DeMunck executed

TERMINAL TAX COMING.

Seven Wisconsin cities will share liz
taxes collected by the state from the
railroads this year upon what is rough
ly termed terminal properties" The
amounts are Superior, 1924, ,064; Mil
waukee, slS, Sal; Ashland, s4l ,922;
Manitowoc, S7,655; Sheboygan, So, ,254;
Green Bay, sl,607; Washburp, 81, ,528.
Superior and Ashland draw their large
share from taxes on the big iron ore
docks at those cities and it surely is a
relief to the taxpayers of these cities.
This is the third year that the pew Law
which was finally drafted 50 as to get
by the constitutional objections in the
courts has been in operation.
The tax commission is said TO be pre-.
pairing to suggest that the law be
amended so as to divide the TAX paid 10
20 and 10 to the city county and state
the same as income taxes are divided

ROUTE UNSETTLED.

The matter of selecting the route
state highway trunk line from Manito-
voc to Kewaunee is still unsettled. A
hearing was held at the court house
last week before Dean Turneaure OF
the college Of engineering, of Madison,
and Highway Engineers Donaphy and
Conway. The main battle is still over
the question of whether the route north
from Two Rivers should take the short
er way up the Range Line road or
swing to the westward TO pass through
the villages of Mishicot a1d Tisch
Mills Attys. Schmitz {. Manitowoc
Seidenglanz OF Kewaunee represented
the Range Line people and Il. l.. Kel-
ley, OF Manitowoc and Assemblyman
o 'Brien and former Assemblyman
Schauer both OF kewaunee county ar
gued on behalf OF the western route.
The discussions became heated at times.
The engineers predicted that both
routes would ultimately be a part OF
the system bnt for the present only one
could be chosen. They also said that
II the road was TO be conereted IT would
have to be financed by county bonding
after which the state would keep 1t up
The matter Is again under advisement

Several of those who receive limit
ed certificates show by their latest
efforts that they have come to a
dead halt or gone slowly backward.
Illness, which prevented study, ex-
cuses some of these; want of nerve
while under examination is pleaded
by others in extenuation of what
seems want of knowledge; laziness
must account for the retroogression
Of the rest. There are teachers
whose goal is reached when the last
day of the school term has arrived,
and compensation is received for
services properly rendered. They
are devoted to text-books-in the
school-room; so much so as to be
unwilling TO lay them aside at reci-
tations, or even to remove index
fingers from passages and stated
principles which their pupils are try
ing to reproduce from memory or to
establish by reasoning. The teacher
who is in this category always has
a textbook in his hand while in the
school-room, but never reads one
when out of it,
Micheal Kirwan,
Co. Supt. of Schools.
