Prince Otto, de Jure King Of Hungary

With the death Of Charles. former
emperor Of Austria and King Of Hun
gary, little Archduke Otto, by Hun
garian law Of primogeniture, has now
become de jure king Of Hungary. But
he will not be regarded as entitled
to the allegiance Of his Magyar fel-
low cOuntrymen as such until crowned
and consecrated. in accordance with
time-honored ceremony, at Budapest.
II the great powers and the adjacent
nations waive their heretofore pro-
nounced opposition to the presence Of
q Hapsburg on the throne Of Hun
gary, in that event the youngster
might be crowned and consecrated.
Just whether In that case these pow
ers concerned would allow either the
now widowed Queen ZIta or her broth

FAMOUS VIOLIN is
Ono Of the Three Dragon tissa in
struments Made by stradivaries
Discovered on Farm.

West Bend. Wis.--What liz believed
to be one Of three dragon-head vi0lins.
produced by Antonlus Straiivarius,
and bearing the date Of manufacture,
4. D. 1901, Is In the possession Of
Edward G. Lucas Of Silver Brook
farm near here.
The famed instrument was handeu
down to Mr.. Lucas by his father, who
became Its owner through purchase
some thirty years ago, from a Mr..
Hopkins, a property owner who then
resided on Huron street, Chicago, who
had been holding the instrument many
years as security for small loan to
musical artist who failed to redeem
1t.
Prior to the time Mr.. Lucas, Sr.,
drew bow across the stringed treas
ure, 1t had lain in an attic many
years, untouched. It was resurrected
on an occasion when Mrs. Hopkins,
wife Of the property owner. had given
n party to few friends In the neigh
borhood, and Mr.. Lucas, among them,
was asked to render some dance
music.
Mrs. Hopkins "dug up" the ancient
violin, bereft of strings, and after 1t
had been restrung, the tones which
were Forthcoming proved to be a reve-
latlon when compared to the ordinary
instrument. Mr.. Hopkins when asked
If he would sell 1t replied that he
would part with It for few dollars,
or an amount equal to the "chattel
mortgage"
The deal was quickly closed and Mr..
Lucas. while he felt that the new
acquisition was out Of the ordinary,
had not the faintest realization that
the instrument was such rich treas
ure.

AN APOLOGY.

The News unwittingly made an OBJ
vicusly unnecessary and an uncalled
To- comparison in its columns Tues
day which must have been offensive
TO all of its readers, as we'll as to one
OF our most esteemed citizens. The
reference was in a communication
sent 10 this paper by J. N. Overhultz,
urging the taxpayers to vote for the
school warrants. The communication
was scanned hurriedy in the closing
hours of busy day, and its trend
being in line with the policy of this
paper, the reference to the naming of
school buildings, with its offensive
comparison, was not noted, else it
wuold have been stricken, or the COM
m1nication omitted entirely.
We offer our most abject apology,
and wish to assure our readers that it
in no wise reflects the sentiment of
this paper, or any part of the COM
munity, so far as we are able to de-
terInine.

NOW FOR GOOD ROADS.

The voting of authority to the coun.
ty school board yesterday to issue
$4,000 worth of school time war
rants was another step of progress in
Putnam county, and VIII enable the
school administration to expand its
facilities for giving every educational
advantage to every boy and girl in
the county, from the primary grades
on up through high school that is
accredited under university regula-
lions.
The paying of the interest and d.
versions to the sinking fund to take
care of these warrants, it is believed
can be done with the regular revenues
set aside for school purposes. Dur
ing the last few years the school
board has expended a considerable
sum in equipment and new buildings.
If this expenditure is eliminated dur
ing the next few years, and if there
is reasonable increase in the reve-
que there will be no difficulty in NEE
ting the interest and sinking fund
payments.
With this situation prevailing the |
issuance of the school warrants should !
in no wise interfere with the bond is
sue which is now being planned for
the construction of the roads which
Putnam county so vitality needs.
Putnam county today has the small
est amount of bonded indebtedness
based on values, of any county in the
state. Likewise it has the poorest
system Of roads of any county in the
peninsular section, and if it is to keep
pace with its sister counties, and avail
itself of its strategic position in the
states splendid development it must
look to the future to pay for roads
which are so badly needed now.
With the school warrant issue out
of the way it is hoped that the COM
mittee which has tie planning of the
road bond issue in charge will hasten
its work and announce to the public
its conclusions as to the best plan to
pursue, the amount of money needed
and when the election should be
called.
