and toed the floor rythmitically with
the strains of dance airs furnished
by the popular Apollo orchestra.
Not only did people from all over
Lake county attend this social and
benefit function, but there were pres
ent waltz and dance artists from
over in Minnesota, even as far as
Lakefield.
Those of the committee who put

membership of the b. of r.. T., are
greatly pleased with the success of

much.

take OFF HATS
WOMEN OF MADISON REGISTER
TO VOTE MAY 13.

Yesterdays registration vas quite
a surprise, especially in n particu-
lar, namely, the number of women
who had their names listed, thereby
gaining the right to vote.
All told, 1850 persons appeared
before the registration board. OF
this number ZIG were women
Surely we men should take off our
hats to this latter number of our po-
litical equals made SO by state laws
and sanctioned by the woman suf-
frage associations.
Yesterday this paper reported that
the women were not out in force to
register. The figures were taken for
that report just before noon, and
at that time so few had appeared
that it was taken for granted that
not many would avail themselves of
the opportunity. In the later part
of the day the women began flock
ing in, leaving their frying pans, fur
niture busting, social calls and what
not and marching boldly. to the city
hall.
If this contingent OF women will
appear at the polls on May 13-and
they should-there is no doubling
that Madison will have a new cleo
trio light plant well built and fully
equipped.
Next Tuesday the registration
board will again sit in the city hall
and finish up it's labors. All who did
not get their names on the books
yesterday will again have a chance
to do 10. There ought to be five or
six hundred women registrants next
Tuesday. Remember the place, the
city hall, west on Center street.

from his son, Sylvester, that the lat

it is likely that his mastering out

The Apollo orchestra is a very
popular musical organization and in
great demand. For months they
have been busy filling engagements
all over this county and in places at
a radius up to fifty miles. Last
Monday night they were at Emery

Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Van, of the
Imperial theater, are to move soon
into the lower rooms of the John

Their daughter, Miss Maxine, will re-
turn from the st. Cloud normal

the summer with them.
Garden making is flourishing in
all quarters of the city and many
are the reports of early planting and
fine prospects. 1t is left for Harold
Mitchell to mention the almost unbe-
lievable in garden growth. He comes
forth with the statement that his po-
tatoes are now up. Next!
Yesterday there arrived in Madi-
son an elderly gentleman who was a
former resident Of this place. His
name is J. r. Smith and his present
abiding place is Stockton, Cal. Mr..
Smith has not cast his eye on Madi-
son for a period of nineteen years.
He is here TO visit Mrs. Ollie New
comb.
"The Wildcat of Paris presented
at the Imperial theater last night,
was one of the most remarkable pic
lures presented in Madison for a
long time and was seen by a large
audience. Precilla Dean, a new
screen star, played the leading role.
The characters were true to type and
the play throughout vas fascinating.
Harry Van, the pianist, followed the
picture with French music and the
evening was one of altogether French
entertainment.
About twenty-five persons were
present at the high school building
last evening to assist in a decision
regarding the building of the new
hospital. 1t was decided to proceed
with the hospital plans and a call
was made for the first third of the
subscriptions. The building will be
erected. That much is definitely GER
tain. The committee will go ahead
and use the funds on hand and those
available just as soon as possible. II
is gratifying to know that the project
is at last to succeed.

WASHINGTON. April widespread
complaints against the 20 per cent. In

day, were answered yesterday by Of
ficials Of the Postofflce Department
with the statement that the new
charges will not prove harmful 10 busi-
ness Of the country
Fears are general in many quarters
that an additional levy OF approximate

tional tax OF si0OO0,0OO that must be

The answer Of the Postofilce Depart
ment is that the new telegram charges

explained by the fact that the increases
