Close Old Palace
From Public Viey
(By Associated Press)

Ragusa, Dalmatia.-The famous Pal
ace of Rectors in this ancient fort
ressed city, has been closed to the pub
lie. The palace contained many price
less gems of painting and sculpture
dating back to the Renaissance. In one
of the anti-Italian demonstrations, sol
diers invaded the palace and destroyed
practically all of the paintings and
sculpture. So much damage was done
that now no one is permitted to enter
the palace, which formerly was the
chief treasure house of the city. Ser
bian soldiers now stand guard at the
entrance and have orders to refuse en-
trance to anyone not on official bust
ness. In like manner, many of the old
relics of Venetian art and culture,
which were to be found all along the
Dalmatian coast, evidence Of former
Venetian glory, have been torn down
and destroyed. The late James Gordon
Bennett, who is said to have called
Ragusa "the garden spot of Europe
was a frequent visitor here, having
bought villa on the island of Lacomo,
opposite the town and the site where
Richard Coeur-de-Lion was shipwreck-

French Enjoy Yank
Goods Left Behind

Paris.-The vast stock of canned
foods left in France by the American
army and now being sold to the public
is proving boom to the French house
wife. She is now able to go to her
usual epicerie and buy canned goods
really canned in America and contain
ing labels in real English-at price
which is sometimes 5000 cheaper than
the same variety of food canned by the
French. String beans, salmon, tuna
fish, corned beef, potted ham, combina-
tons of vegetables and meat of various
kinds and many others are now obtain
able from the stock of things the
American army left behind and sold
to the French government. Many of
these things, pork and beans, for in
stance, were virtually unknown to the
French until the Yanks came to "Sun-
ny" France. All are products of the
best known American packers and it
is striking that thes average French
housewife says American canning
methss are better than the French.

DENTIST BURNED
IN OFFICE FIRE
DR.. c. P. Collins Has Hand
Burned Distinguishing
Fire Thursday.
INJURY NOT SERIOUS

Quick action prevented what would
probably have been a bad fire in the
business district of Kenosha Thursday
evening just before eight o'clock when
DR.. c. P. Collins, unaided, extinguished
a small blaze in his Offices in the Pub
lie Service building on Market square,
but in so doing, badly burned his right
hand. DR.. Collins was working at a
crucible under which a gas flame was
burning. In some way which he cam
not understand, one of the lace cur
tains in the Office became ignited and
the flames travelled like wildfre and
threatened to spread to other parts Of
the room.
Realizing the danger of the ire, DR..
Collins tore down the hangings and
stamped out the fire. Some of the
flames had spread to the woodwork of
the building, but this was also ex-
tinguished. DR.. Collins then summoned
help but the fire had been SO well ham
died that no call to the department
was necessary. The damage to the
room and to the Furnishings of the
office will be in the neighborhood of
$3.50. In lighting the fire, DR.. Collins
burned a large patch of skin off of his
right hand and he went Immediately
to DR.. Hanley, where the burns were
treated 1t will take several days be-
fore he will be able to attend to his
practice and he is planning to utilize
the time on an enforced vacation.

Wisconsin, speaking today before the
9th annual convention of the Wiscon-

land in northern Wisconsin that is

The basis of manufacturing is in pow
err and no state in the middle west
has the advantage Of Wisconsin from
this standpoint. This state has $50
active water powers in operation and
if all of the available water power
we're developed it would mean saw
ing of coal that would require 1850
trains OF 100 cars to each transport.

SMALLEY ACQUITTED
OF BANCROFT CHARGE
Lancaster Jury Holds That the Judge
Did Not Violate the Corrupt
Practice Act.
(By Associated Press Leased Wire)


Lancaster, Wis-Judge Sherman E.
Smalley will retain his seat as judge
of the Fifth Judicial district as re
suit of the jury's decision last night,
clearing him of charges of violation of
the corrupt practices act, in the trial
brought here by the state.
The jury decided that Judge Smalley
did not circulate or authorize the cir
culation of alleged libelous campaign
leaflets objected to by ex-Judge Levi H.
Bancroft, Richland Center, whom Small
ley defeated in the April election.
The decision is virtually a verdict
that Smalley is adjudged not guilty of
the corrupt practices act. The case
was the first brought in Wisconsin in
the ten years in which the act has
been in effect. The jury was out
four hours.
1t is possible that the state may ap-
peal to the state supreme court. j. F.
Clifford, Green Bay, special prosecutor
for the state, went to Madison today
to confer with Attorney General Nor
gan. Judge Reid, Wausau, who pre-
sided, told the attorneys they had one
week in which to file any motions and
two weeks in which to submit briefs on
questions they wish to argue.
Judge Bancroft said that while he
was disappointed at the verdict, he was
satisfied that the residents in the dis
trict know what was brought out in
the testimony and feels that he has
been cleared of charges in the leaf
lets, chiefly that he opposed prohibi-
ton and woman suffrage.

that the woman was in Kenosha.
| The woman said that she was So

Frenchmen Want
Furniture Style
(By Associated Pressl

Paris A new style in furniture
was demanded by representatives of
the French furniture industry at the
Furniture Congress recently held here.
Architects are blamed by the presi-
dent of the Furniture Makers associa-
ton for the continued production of
false Louis XIV, Louis XVI and other
styles of antiques. They design in
teriors to go with such furniture and
naturally the manufacturers have TO
NEE the demand, he says.
The president proposed that the
teachers in the fine arts school should
begin the campaign for modern orig
inal style by inspiring original ideas
under the general direction of com
mittee composed of artists, architects
and furniture makers.
He hopes this method will produce
an entirely new style that will mark
this epoch as did the styles of the
two Louis, of the Empire and the
Renaissance.

Missionaries, Catholic and
Protestant, Have Done
Much for Red Men.
FARLEY AT ST. PAUL

"The progress that has been made
in the civilization of the Indians and
their development which has been i'm
possible if it had not been for the mis-
sionaries that were pioneers in laying
the foundation for the religious and
educational welfare of these people,"
declares the new commissioner of In
dian affairs, Charles H. Burke, in a
communication to the Rev. Elmer E.
Higley D, D., recently appointed su-
perintendent of Indian work of the
Methodist Episcopal church.
The board of home missions and
church extension and the Woman's
Home Missionary Society of the Meth
odist Episcopal church have recently
appointed joint committee on Indian
work and DR.. Elmer E. Higley of Des
Moines, Iowa, was appointed superin-
tendent and Mrs. S. S. Beggs of Tope-
ka, Kansas, was appointed associate SUI
perintendent. This joint committee is
carrying out progressive program I'M
der the committee on conservation and
advance and announces two conferen-
ces for its missionaries among the In
dams. The first conference will be
held at Hamline University, ST. Paul,
Mimi, beginning June 14th, and the
second at Salem, Ore, beginning June
9th. DR.. Higley and Mrs. Beggs will
have charge of the program and In
dams from the territory adjacent to
the conferences will be in attendance.
The topics which will be discussed
are: Christian Home Standards for
Indians" "What an Indian Can

Student" Developing the Right Kind
of Community Spirit" "The Meaning
and Obligations of Citizenship" "The
Needs of an Adequate Sunday School

Not Dying Race.
"The Indians are not decreasing in
numbers" said DR.. Higley, "there are
over one-third of million of Indians
in the United States who speak fifty
seven distinct languages. A survey
among the Indians has just recently
been made by the Centenary officials
and shows that not only the full-blood-
ed Indians are increasing, but the
mixed bloods also, with better homes,
medical attention and better care of
Indian babies and with the missionar-
les taking the gospel of soap, santa
ton and salvation, the increase of the
number of Indians will continue.
High Child Mortality.
"Two-thirds cannot understand the
American language. 1870 of the Indi-
ans are afflicted with tuberculosis and
sc 900 suffer from trachoma. Three
out of every five Indian children die
before the age Of five years. There
are 430 Protestant missionaries and
275 Catholic, with 616 church buildings
with a membership of $4,000 Protes-
tants and 81 900 Catholics. Fully two
thirds of the whole Indian population
is yet without gospel privileges what
ever, either Protestant or Catholic.
The Centenary program plans larger
enterprises among the red men"
