AUTO KILLS
PEDESTRIAN
AT CASSVILLE
Peter Mumm, So, Struck By
Long Car Wednesday Eve.
Lives Short Time.

Peter Mumm, 68, Cassville retired
farmer, received injuries that caused
his death an hour later when struck
by an automobile driven by E. I'll.
Long, near Cassville, Wednesday ev-
ening. The accident happened on S.
T. l.. 81 about a mile and half east
of the village.
Long, driving a heavy touring car,
was enroute to Cassville from Ian
caster when the accident happened.
Mr. Mumm had been working for the
day with his son-in-laW, John Lind
ner, fixing woodshed, and was on
the way home, afoot.
Apparently Long did not see Mr..
Mumm until too late. The old gentle
man became confused and as Long
made swing to the left to avoid
striking him, Mumm jumped in front
of the car. At least that is the story
as told the Herald. The heavy fender
struck Mumm, infiicting fatal injuries.
He was picked up by Long and taken
to Cassville for medical attention. He
had suffered two broken ankles, brok-
en- knee cap, confusion on head and
ribs badly crushed. Death came about
8 p. m.
Mr.. Mumm is survived by large
family. Burial was made at Cassvilfe.
An informal inquiry was held at
Cassvil1e Thursday morning. District
Attorney C1ementson has taken no &C
ton in the matter, apparently deem
ing it an unfortunate but unavoidable
accident.

MAY PUMP
WATER WITH
OIL ENGINE
City Considers Fairbanks
Morse System of Raising
Fluid Self Supporting.

The local council has under consid-
Grafton a plan to pump the city water
with a 100-h. p. Fairbanks-Morse oil
engine, using a 1ow-grade fuel costing
about &c a gallon. The present steam
plant, recently overhauled and new
boiler installed, would be held as
emergency equipment.
Fairbanks-Morse representatives ap-
peared before the council meeting last
Tuesday night to submit figures. The
claim is made that the cost of oil fuel
would be around $500 year. This
compares to $4,000 year using coal
as at present. Every pound of coal
used at the plant has to be hauled
three miles and shoveled into the
boilers.
The estimated cost of an oil unit
installed is placed at around $4,000
to $4,000. In discussing the MAJ
Saturday Mayor Beck said that any
plan gone into would involve the f.
nancing of the improvement out of the
coal fund so that the city would not
advance a cent. The difference be-
tween $500 year and $4,000 year
would pay Tor the oil unit in about
three years.
The matter will come up for dis
posal soon and may be considered at
the special meeting of the council set
for next Monday evening.

city quarry. This motion carried unan-
imous1y.
Donald Hickok came before the
council to get a better understanding
of the plumbers license and ordin-
ances.
A motion was made by Alderman
Barnett, seconded by Aid. Ramshaw

CONSOLIDATED
SCHOOL CASE
HEARING DEC. 9
Supreme Court to Act on
Evidence in Grant Co. Con-
tests-Districts Affected.

At hearing yesterday the Wiscon-
sin Supreme court took evidence in
the consolidation contests affecting
two areas in Grant county. One is the
proposed Bloomington consolidation
while the other is the Fennimore con-
solidation. The Bloomington CONSOLE
dation affects ten sections in Bloom
ington' and four sections in Little
Grant The Fennimore case affects
four sections in Mt. Ida.
The cases, long disputed, were
brought to a showdown last week
at the instance of taxpayers of the
Fennimore and Bloomington school
districts, secured an order from the
Supreme court directing town clerks
in the areas affected to appear before
the court on Dec. 8 and give reasons
for not obeying the orders of the coun-
ty committee on common schools and
the state superintendent in adding
territory to both districts
Roy Bennett, town clerk of Little
! Grant, in response to a writ of man
damus, went to Madison Friday morn
ing. Mr.. Bennett said the whole prop
osition was sadly mixed and jumbled
Eaffair with sore spots and opposing
consultations, ETC., to contend with.
He hesitated to predict what the out
come of the two cases would be but
said the act of the Supreme court in
declaring the fifth clause of the Min
ier bill unconstitutional had practi-
cally given consolidation opponents
the count This clause relates to home
rule on consolidation matters and
without it the bill is emasculated, Mr..
Bennett declares.

1924 FOOTBALL
SQUAD GUESTS
OF KIWANIANS
Banquet, Song and Story
Mark Closing of Years
Work; Boys Encouraged.

Food for the inner man, songs, stor-
les. "reminiscences and a recital of
team activities made the evening
speed pleasantly last Thursday when
the L. Fl. S. 1924 football squad, 80
strong, was entertained by the Ka-
wants club at $50 banquet at Grant
land club rooms.
The feast, and a feast it was, was
served by the Legion Auxiliary. In
terspersed were songs by the ban
queters. And following came the more
formal program. F. C. Meyer presid-
ing as POSTMASTER.
w. J. Brennan, in a happy vein, well
coined the team on behalf of the XII
wants club. DR.. James Fowler, here
tofore host of the football squad and
who stepped aside to ALLOW the civic
club the honor, talked on football as
a character building game. Coach F.
G. MudrAck, recited the various wins
and loses of the year, sharing the
honors with Asst. Coach Miles and the
team. He thanked the club members
heartily for their hospitality. Capt.
ClementSon responded for the team.
He was followed by Capt-elect Ed
wards in a 1925 prophecy.
Steve Polaski, captain of the rs
Varsity team, was unable to be pres
ent for an address set down beside his
name. AS a result the POSTMASTER in
troduced "Steve Polaski" Birrel1, ever
ready for an impromptu speech of wit
and interest. He was followed by Rev.
Mclaughlin who told of old football
contests in his college days.
The interest and endorsement of the
club toward the team has encouraged
the boys wonderfully and the play
next year cannot help but be in
fuenced by it.

GOVERNMENT TO
SECURE LANDS
FOR WILD LIFE
Preserve for Fish and Game
On Upper Mississippi
Has Coolidge 0. X.

An appropriation of 100000 to
purchase lands in the Mississippi riv-
er bottoms between Rock Island, ILL.,,
and Lake Pepin, MINI, authorized by
the last congress in 0enOting this 300
mile strip of river lands as the Upper
Mississippi River Wild Life and Fish
Refuge, was included in President
Coolidge's budget message Tuesday.
The bill authorizing the appropri-
alton and setting aside the areas as
preserve was passed unanimously
by the last congress following ma
ton wide campaign by the Izaak Wal
ton League of America, sponsors OF
the measure.
The Importance of preserving ma
tural wild life breeding and feeding
areas was indicated by the inclusion
of the appropriation in the budget
in the face of cut of $50 ,225, 931.72
in the amounts authorized by the
last congress, conservationists said.
This appropriation in view of the
economy stand of the president in
dictates that the time is here when
the vital importance of the conserva-
ton of our wild places and wild life
is beginning to be realized de-
clared VIII H. Dig, president of the
Walton League The league is a ma
tional body of sportsmen, including
local chapters in towns and cities all

The upper Mississippi river is con-
sidered the finest black bass breed
ing grounds in the world. Every year
the state and federal fish departments
rescue millions of small bass from the
1andlocked sloughs along teh over
flow lands, and these are distributed
all over the country. The Mississippi
bottoms also constitute a natural fly
way for migratory wild fowl, and are
habitat of innumerable fur bearing an
imals and small game.
, The appropriation will permit the
purchase of islands, overflow lands,
and the forested banks of the river
up to the high water marks along
the bluffs. The region is said to be
one of the finest scenic areas in Am
erica. Administration will be under
the department of agriculture.

Rarm.-Triaf i'm Feb'y.

Harvey Ames, the 21-year-old Po-
tosi young man who has been held
in Jail here for a month in connec-
ton with the death OF Fred Kern at
Potosi on Nov. 8. had his preliminary
hearing Wednesday,. He was held to
the February term Of circuit court
under bonds of $1,000.
The hearing developed little not al
ready known. Mr. Kern received fatal
injuries in a scuffle or quarrel when
he fell to the street, striking his head
on the hard macadam. It will be up
to the state to prove the intent and If
it is proved that Ames was in quar-
relsome mood his responsibility for
Kern's death will be more firmly es-
tablished than If the unfortunate man
was the victim of jocose horseplay
which has been Anles' claim.
Witnesses called for the state were:
Clyde McKelvey, Francis Duve, Mar
tina Duve, Wallace Macke, Frank Os-
termeier, E. B. Flesch and Dr. Ken
ney Atty David Gardner Jr. is APP
pearing for the defense. The formal
charge is assault with intent to do
great bodily harm, much lighter Of
tense than manslaughter.

The Reason for Higher Taxes

Mayor Geo. r.. Beck in an interview
Saturday agreed that Lancaster taxes
would be higher next year than last

provements without paying for them.
He mentioned the new civic building
upon which we are paying interest,
the payments of principal being de-
ferfed for several years; a new
boiler at the water works costing
nearly $4,000; a new sewage disposal
plant the cost of which is not def1n-
itely known but which will be around
100000; a new high school with an
nual payments of 1866; and a
number of other increased expenses.

STORM DISRUPTS LIGHT SERVICE

The sleet storm of Thursday night
caused two rather serious Interrupt
tions to electric service in Lancaster.
A broken wire near the A. & P. store
caused break in service in the near
by area of about an hour between
and 10 o'clock in the morning. At
AIS electricity again vanished from
the wires and remained off until
o'clock p. m. This was due to a brok-
en- pole south of Platteville. It was
impossible to get emergency current
from the DEBORAH hydro-electric plant
due to low water over the dam and
the Sank City plant was unavailable
for the same reason. BY the time the
Pra. du Chen steam plant was fired
up the Galena service was on again.
