Relief Needed at University.

I'm the matter of buildings, the Uni
versity of Wisconsin is in the same
situation as the country at large-des-
perately short of housing facilities Its
situation is worse, however, because
the population of the university has
been growing faster than the popuIa-
zion of the country and because no new
appropriation for a building of any size
has been granted to the university
since 1913" This is the situation as
explained by Business Manager II. j.
Thorf elsen.

Retires Six-Thirty A. M.-Dies Two
Hours Later.

John Campbell, favorably known
about town as "Louden" died sud-

ing at 1907 Ross Avenue. Campbell
had spent the major portion of the
night with his friends winding up
his rounds of pleasure at 4:30 a. m.
at local cafe, where he and his
friends ate an early breakfast; after
eating large porter house steak and
coffee, he was driven home in an
automobile by Jim Morgan, a friend
of his, reaching home about 6 O'Clock.
After bidding Morgan the time OF
morning Campbell was heard to re-

about 10 o'clock this evening up on
the track. When knocking on the
front door of his rooming place, his
landlady arose and let him in, and
said; boy where have you been all
night?' Out with the boys Campbell
said After these remarks he re-
tired for the morning which was, it
as stated about $3.50; probably an

Immediately called his rooming mis-
tress; she at first heard him and
thinking that, he merely wanted to
pay his room rent was the cause of
her failure to hurry, and as his calls
came continuously she found Camp

parently very i'll. What is the matter,
she exclaimed? May / sent for a ply
stefan the rooming mistress asked;
no, said he; Campbell favoring old
home remedies refused aid of a ply
stefan and at about o'clock his con-
dition changed for the worse and
life became extinct a few moments
later.
Campbell was well known in Dallas
as "Louden" having lived here many
years, was a young man and was for
merly driver of a rent car. Fun
eral was held Tuesday evening in
the Chapel of Peoples Undertaking
Company.
