 Herman F. Meyerhardt, a resident of this city for a number of years, and quite well known about town. was found Tuesday afternoon lying in the bathtub at his home 1S2 Prospect street, with a badly cut throat, the lat ter, it is said, being inflicted with a razor. The Bulletin reporter made a number of attempts Tuesday night to get some information from mem bers of the family in regard to the af- fair, but was unsuccessful, being told that they had nothing to say about it at that time. According to a report, it was apparently an attempted case of suicide through despondeney caused by the loss of money. Shortly after being found MT. Meyerhardt was taken to St. Joseph's hospital, where the wound was dressed. The physician who attended him stated Tuesday night that the patient had recovered well from the operation of closing the wound and that he was resting com fortably at that time. His recovery is practically assured.

Action on Senate and House Bills.


The senate killed the judiciary COM
mittee bill by a vote of % to z, grant
ing a pension to justices of the SUI
preme court of $1,000 per year, after
20 years service, when they have
reached sixty-fve years of age.
The senate whooped the woman suf-
frage referendum bill through with a
chorus of sayes," and thus disposed of
the entire suffrage question for this
session, presidential vote bill having
been passed. The Nolan bill provides
for referendum on suffrage in 1920,
which, if carried, will grant women
unrestricted rights
In the house Assemblyman Jensen
made an attempt to save his bill pro-
viding for commission form of govern
ment in counties, but the bill was
killed by vote of 48 to SO. The move
to kill the bill was made by Assembly
man Thomas Bartingale of Chippewa
county.
There was a long debate over the
Burhop bill giving cities the right to
establish public milk and dairy sta
tions. Assemblyman Donnelly, Mil
waukee, attacked the measure, declar-
ing that cities should not be permitted
to go into this business. Assemblyman
Kaney, Milwaukee, championed the
measure. BY a vote of SO to so, the
assembly refused to kill the bill, and
then passed it.

Use for Old Batteries.

In open freplaces, especially where
wood is used for fuel, gorgeous col
ored-fire effect may be produced, says
Popular Mechanics magazine, by
placing one or two old dry cells among
the hot Goals. The substance with
which the top of the battery is sealed
soon burns away, and the heat sets
up a chemical action, producing gas
which burns with flame of vivid
blue, purple and green. One old dry
cell will continue the spectacle for
from half to three-quarters of an hour
depending upon the heat of the fire
in which it is placed. No danger at
taches to this production of colored
fire. It costs nothing, inasmuch as old
dry batteries are ordinarily worthless,
but it will provide both pleasure and
amusement at fireside gatherings.

on that touchy corn, instantly it stops
aching, then you lift the corn off with
the fingers. Truly! No humbug!
Try Freezone! Your druggist sells a
tiny bottle for a few cents, sufficient to
rid your feet of every hard corn, soft
corn, or corn between the toes, and
calluses, without one particle of pain,

Legislature to Be Through June !.
The wisconsin legislature will be
adjourned by June 1. That is the fore
cast made by Speaker Riley S. Young
and Lieut.. Gov. E. F. Dithmar.
Both the assembly and senate execu-
tives were emphatic in stating that
each house could wind up it's business
before that date but week is given
for gathering up loose ends.
It is not believed the marketing bill
will prove as much Of stumbling
block as predicted. Most Legislators
are willing to take the word of the
special interim committee on the needs
and special phases of the bill and will
vote accordingly. Most bills originally
introduced by title have been sent
down by the legislative reference IL
brary and the few remaining can be
disposed Of in three weeks. Besides, a
time limit has been set, April 49, on
introduction of bills, now in by titles

Would Prevent Misuse Of FIaq.

Enactment of federal law to pre-
vent general misuse and dissertation of
the American 1ag1was advocated in a
report to the twenty-eighth congress
of the Daughters of the American
Revolution. Mrs. John P. Hume,
state regent Of Wisconsin, chairman
of the flag committee, reported that
the evil had increased greatly since
the armistice and that while it was
due largely to ignorance, state laws
were so conflicting and so lax that a
federal statute was needed to assure
regard for the national emblem.

Senator Wants Dover Rights Dropped.

Senator Theodore Bentley has intro
duced bill in the upper house to abol-

been referred to the judiciary commit
tee, of which he is chairman, provides
that in case either husband or wife
dies intestate the other is given the
homestead for life and one-third of all
the other real estate. A similar bill
offered in the senate two years ago by
Senator Bentley was defeated.
