COUNTY ATLAS HERE Copies of the. long anticipated county atlas of La Crosse county were received in the court house to day and distributed among county officers. It is a valuable volume for the county officials or for anyone desiring information regarding the country districts in the county. The book was gotten out by George A.

STAND Kill AT II. W. :ii.g.:iiyiP should be devised so that the work of tile board of regents would not fall upon the resident members as it does at present.

Aside from Mr. Hank's the most interesting testimony given was that of "Dick" Remp, center on the football team. He told how he had been suspended from college because he had refused to pay training table board. He stated that there was an agreement between him and Graduate Manager Kilpatrick that he should be given his board free. Incidentally, Remp took occasion to- explain his views on the football situation.

"If the university finds it necessary to hire men to play football, just like they do in bullfights, i think it would be a good investment. There is nothing that gives the students as much fun as football." (I 111 offered the use of a motor boat. The boat will serve the purpose for coaching but will carry few people and O'Dea wants a boat that could carry two full crews if a storm arose or anything happened to the shells. O'Dea is rounding out his tenth year at the varsity. He came -here from England in 1896 and t-hat year took his varsity crew down to row the Yale freshmen.

Wisconsin won and next year rowed the Yale varsity, being defeated by three lengths. In 1898 Wisconsin was third at Saratoga, 'finishing 16 feet behind Cornell, who was second. In 1809 O'Dea coached at Harvard and the crews won the three races. In 1900 at l'oughkcesic the Wisconsin freshmen won and the varsity was beaten by i.S feet. The following vear the varsity took third, the next year both crews were second, and the next year all three were third.

The last two years the four oared and varsity crews have gone cast and finished last 011 both occasions. It is too early to say anything as to the future. O'Dea said he would be sorry to see Wisconsin drop rowing as the department has plenty of good material. TO FORM REAL APPLETON. March 14.

Apple ton paper manufacturers, several of whom are members of the General Paper company, are considerably excited over the decision jf the supreme court yesterday in the case of the federal government against the General Paper company, and while none will permit their name to be used for publication, all have something to say concerning their opinion of the outcome of the case. All agree that the decision of the court is directly adverse to what the company had hoped and none deny but that it will work a hardship in the company's case. Threatens the Newspapers. "It seems strange to me." said one of the most prominent paper manufacturers in the valley today, "that the newspaper men who are accused of having raised the fund wherewith to carry on the tight against the General Paper company, of which, by the way. this action now pending is but preliminary, do not realize that if they win their case ultimately they will inevitably drive the mills into a single ownership, which is easy to believe will be worse for them than the thraldom they are now so bitterly ON I President Charles R.

Van Hise of the University of Wisconsin has ffonc to the Pacific coast to preside at the meeting of the Association of American Universities in session March 14-17 at the University of Cali fornia and Leland Stanford Jr. Um versity.

"The Reaction of Graduate Work on the Other Work of the University" is presented by President Jacob G. Shurman of Cornell. Dean Andrew E. West of Princeton reads a paper on "The Organization of the University in Relation to the Faculties of the Several Colleges." DEATH OF HORACE TENNY AT MADISON MADISON, 14--Horace Tenney, pioneer lawyer and editor of Wisconsin, died yesterday, aged 86.

He had been a member of both houses of the legislature, state treasurer, state printer, army paymaster, university regent and secretary of the railway commission under Gov. Taylor. He selected the site for the University of Wisconsin. For some years years he was an editor and writer for papers of Chicago and St. Paul.

Maj. Tenney was born in Vermont. He settled here in 1846 and with J. T. Marston established the Wisconsin Patriot.

He was elected assemblyman in 1856, university regent in 1857, comptroller in 1858 and secretary of the state railway commission in 1874. MURDERER SEEKS HIS FREEDOM OSHKOSH, March 14 The sensational French-Steele tragedy seventeen years ago at Ashland has been revived by a petition for trial by I-rench that his mental state mav be determined. W. G. French was convicted of the murder of Steele, who it was alleged had broken up the French home.

Six years ago he was transferred to the Northern Hospital for the Insane at this, city. The term of his sentence has expired and he is seeking his freedom. A jury trial will be had in a few days. FARMERS NO NOT WANT NEW LINE ACINI-, March 14. Farmers of the town of Caledonia have appointed a committee to look after their interests in the purchase by the PAPER TRUST complaining of.

As it is now, the General Paper company is not the whole thing in the west. There are other mills from which paper can be bought, but if the single ownership scheme goes into effect it is altogether probable that every mill making print paper will be gathered in, so that there would be but three companies in the countryjthe International, the Great Northern, and the new one, from which the newspapers could buy their paper. It would seem that the publishers would fear such a condition more than they do the present one. "There is no doubt whatever," continued the manufacturer, "that if the publishers win the mills will go under the single ownership. It can not be otherwise.

With market conditions as they are, it. would be simply impossible to go back to the old. way of each mill scrambling for orders. It is bad enough as it is. And it has been proven that the single ownership principle is feasible, works well in practice, and can not be attacked in the courts, so if we can not have the General Paper company we will have ttiatj though, mind you, I am not in any way saying that we can not have the General." ALL MADISON.

March 14. -The chief witness before the investigating committee yesterday was Lucius S. Hanks, chairman of the finance committee and member of the. executive committee of the board of regents. In response to the question, "Have you any suggestions make that would improve the university," Mr.

Hanks outlined a system of administration that would entirely revolutionize that which is now in vogue. He described the present system as one "adapted to the needs of the university when it wa: an institution spending $150,000 a year, but entirely inadequate at present." lie suggested that the work of the president should be made less of an administrative and more of a scholastic nature. He further suggested that some system MADISON', 14. Andrew M. D'Dea, coach of the Wisconsin university crews, yesterday resigned his position to take effect at the end of this school year.

The re-Mguatiou was handed to President Hertke of the athletic association and will be acted upon at the next meeting of the athletic board. While O'Dca has been assistant in physical culture he will also give up that work and will leave the institution when his resignation takes effect in June. As a reason for the resignation O'Dca expresses dissatisfaction with conditions existing here. lie had a contract the end of ihe school year in iqc7, but prefers not to stay, lit has a-ked at different times for a boat house on the cattish for a launch for coaching purposes, and for various other things in the way of equipment, but has not been able to get them.
