light BONDS
AN ELECTION WILL SOON BE
HELD In MADISON.

Following the 30-day test now be-
ing made at the electric light plant it
has been given out that a new cleo
ton will be called to authorize the
issuance of bonds to erect a munic-
ipally owned plant.
The last bonds voted were rejected
primarily on their illegality due to
the time of their maturity which was
set at 25 years. Had this not stood
in the way of their purchase by bond
ing firms ii is more than probable
that they would have failed of sale
anyway, on the score of the lack OF
a fair representation of the voters OF
the city. The next election should be
legal in every particular. The matur-
ity of the bonds should not be beyond
20 years, and a large vote should be
given to carry the election past any
point of uncertainty. The women OF
the city will undoubtedly have a voice
in deciding the issue.
Let everyone feel that this is a
matter of great Importance and make
a corresponding effort to get out and
vote in accordance with his judg-
ment.

GUY {. HANSON
DISCUSSION OF NATURAL HIS
TORY OF DIAMONDS.

Diamonds are polished by pressure
on a wheel of steel, which makes
$500 revolutions a minute. Diamond
dust mixed with olive oil is used
for the polishing process and about
so hours time is required to polish a
rough diamond of two carat size.
The loss in cutting is about so per
cent and therefore, a rough stone of
two and a half carats size will make
a finished stone of n carat.
The brilliancy of a diamond de-
ponds upon the cutting, with each
facet properly and evenly laid at the
correct angle to reflect light.
Diamonds are cut chiefly in Ann
sterdam, Holland, although this
country has gone into the field and
is doing better work than our Euro
pean competitors.

TRUST FUND
TO BE CREATED FOR MISS FLOR
ENCE LINCOLN.

Those who have been longing ever
since the terrible accident happened
to do something for Miss Lincoln are
to be given a chance. The Civic and
Child Welfare club have decided to
establish a trust fund to be used for
her welfare now and after she leaves
the hospital. One who has met such
an accident as bravely as Florence
Lincoln has done has the right quail
tiles and need not look forward to a
future of helpless dependence If CIV
en- an adequate chance. She will
need special training and equipment.
The fund should be large enough to
make this possible. The committee
is investigating to see what opportu-
mites are available. The Merchants
association through Mr.. Rowland has
also started efforts for the same pur-
pose.
AT a joint meeting of the commit
tees of the two organizations it was
decided 10 pool their efforts. At the
request of Mr.. Rowland. the Civic
and Child Welfare club agreed to as
sumo responsibility for the eXpendi-
ture of the fund. The whole city
seems interested. With the coopera-
ton of the ministers subscriptions
will be taken at the different
churches either March 16 or %.
Many other organizations including
lodges and social clubs are offering
their assistance. Lest anyone feel
neglected, Miss Cook, who has been
interested, and has already made a
collection, has volunteered to con
tinue to accept subscriptions at the
First National bank. The help of ev-
cry sympathetic individual Is re-
quested.

PSEUDO DEPUTY
STOPS MOTORISTS
Arrests Them for Speeding Near
Milwaukee Then Takes Bride or
Accepts Bail

Some unidentified gallant Robin
Hood has taken upon himself the task
of policing the roads throughout the
country near Milwaukee, much to the
CONSERVATION of autoists who fall in
to his ambush and the deputy sheriffs
who have tried in vain for several
weeks to capture him.
Representing himself as deputy
sheriff, he stops autoists at the point
OF a revolver, placing them under ar
rest for speeding, or pretending to
hold them on other charges. Then he
either submits to a bride or accepts
bail.
I'm deputy sheriff, and you look
like the guy we're after for speeding,
is a sample greeting. He does not
bother with such minor details as a
star or credentials, but relies upon
the gaping mouth of his six shooter
for words of authority.

ALARMING NEED
OF ROOM FOR
i. W. STUDENTS
Enrolment Of 5000 Would Mean
Many Homeless; Worse For
Women Than Men :

eff 5000 students apply for admiss-
ion to the university this fall, some OF
them will probably have to return to
their homes said Professor e. B. Shin
ner last night at Madison.
A canvass of the city was made last
week and rooming accommodations
were found for less than 5000. When
the university opens there will be
rooms for at least 500 more, it is be-
lieved, but owing to the shortage OF
rooms for rent throughout the city it
will be difficult to find lodging for
more than $500 students, the number
accommodated in 1916.
