Attorney Stewart secured one chal-

he challenged Ida Martin also, the
Judge denied it.
When it came the turn of Miss Clara

by the attorney for the defense, and
he passed her by after a few piercing

Madison, Wis.1Ralph W. Jackman,
Madison attorney, will prosecute the
case against Martin Lemberger, who is
charged with the murder Of his seven
year-old daughter, Annie, here in 1911,
as a result of his appointment by
Judge A. C. Hoppmann today. He will
act in the place Of Theodore Lewis,
district attorney, who requested to be
relieved from his duties. Mr.. Jackman
says that within the next few days ne
will hold conferences with Judge Hopp-
mann and attorneys for Lemberger to
set date for the preliminary hearing.
The new prosecutor says that he has
only a superficial acquaintance with the
details of the case, and that it will be
necessary for him to give the matter
study before deciding definitely when
the first action shall start.
Lemberger is charged with second
degree murder in connection with the
death of his daughter, ten years ago,
for whose murder John A. (Dogskin)
Johnson is serving life sentence in
the state prison. Governor Blaine is
taking no action on the pardon appli-
cation of johnson until the court has
decided the part the father of the girl
may have had in her death. 1t is be-
lieved that the preliminary hearing in
the case will be commenced before the
end Of the month.

yond hope of realization; even its de-
STABILITY at this time might we'll be
questioned. Thousands of years of
history, recording the wars and con-
troversies of mankind, suggest that
human nature would require revolu-
tionary reorganization to make univer-
sal disarmament possible.
World Not Ready Yet.
"a consideration of the present state
of the world must, think, enforce the
conclusion that this is not a hopeful
time to undertake that kind Of revolu-
ton. On the other hand, world with
the horrors of recent experiences
scared into it's mind and staggering
under the load Of debt and ornaments
has generously justified our hope for a
favorable attitude toward the practical
effort, the sincere beginning that we
are attempting. The fine spirit in
which leading nations have received
the invitation to meet and consider
these things is altogether encouraging.
To undertake the impossible and fail,
might leave our last state worse than
our first. The attitude of the nations
warrants confidence that we will not
fail but that rather that substantial
results will be accomplished calculated
to lessen the armament burden and to
reduce the danger of armed conflict.
I feel that in such an effort we are en-
titled to the support of all people who
would be glad--as can assure you 7
would-to see still more accomplished
if possible"

one of the spectators at the ball game
in the afternoon; the other that it
was Of incendiary origin. A theory
that the fire might have been caused by
crossed electric wires was blasted when
investigation revealed that neither
building was wired for electricity.
Caretaker Ralph Pedley closed the
park just after six o'clock Sunday
evening. He declared that he went
around all of the buildings and that
there was no sign of smoke. E. C.
Wussow, motorist, declared that he
drove slowly past the park only few
minutes before the blaze and that
there was no sign Of smoke. By the
time he reached Fremont avenue and
Lincoln avenue, the entire sky was
lighted up by the flames. This state
ment was also borne out by the re-
marks of Deputy Sheriff Robinson.
No Cause for Spite Work.
No reason can be assigned for the
burning of the buildings By fre-bugs.
There have been the best of relations
between the Simmons company and its
employees and it is incenceivable to
believe that spite work on the part
of any of them could have been the
cause Of the fire.
No persons were seen lettering in
the neighborhood of the building at
any time during the evening and police
and fire officials had been unable up
until late hour this afternoon to
find any clew which might help I'M
ravel the mystery Of the cause Of
the fire.

defense for Herman MOrrone,
used all of their challenges and
strikes against the women jurors,
until jury of twelve men sat in

had SO strong an aversion to kill
ing in any form that they would
not be likely to see the merits of
even the self-defense contention.
At IL a. m. this morning, the
jury was finally drawn, as citi-
zens lingering in the hall of the

pressed into service. Gus Sim
