(,r Political j nemlcn of Coventor Walter J. ; Kohlcr lilt a Ioiik vkhI trull when i they be Ran an effort to bar hiin from office. CharRine he was illHiiiiilifii'd j through alleged violation of the1 corrupt practices act limiting per- j funal expenditures, LnKnlleite pro-' Ki,('HsivcN began their effort to bar! Jvchler from tho governor's chair j before, he was Inaugurated. - j Seven months have elapsed since he. took office as the first non-pro-j gressivo to gain election in a de- , cade, and the legal hattlc. unpre-1 e.cdcntcd in tho htatc's history, has nut passed the preliminary stage. In fact, tho prospect looms that Governor Kohler's two-year term of office may have expired before the utate courts finally give their decision on his right to hold tho office. j Circuit .ludgo James C. Wick ham will sit in Sheboygan, seat of the county In which Walter Kohler lias lived all his life, the first week In September and hear the argu ments on tho demurrer of tho governor-defendant to tho action commenced by tho state at the In stigation of our prominent mem bers of the Larollctto progressive faction. After that, the state supreme court will be called upon to de cide whether the decision of Judge Wlekham shall bo upheld. If that is in favor of the governor, the case will end there. If not, then tho way will be cleared to a trial on the merits of the case. In Its legal aspect, the unusual case hinges on whether the gov ernor spent in excess of $4000 per sonally in his campaign to win the Jtcpublican nomination for gover nor, and if so, whether he thereby was disqualified to hold the office to which ho was elected last No-, vember. Contending that a great public question is involved, progressives who backed the man Kohlcr de feated In the primary. Rep. Joseph 1). Reck, began the court action. Kohler, whoso sudden rise to in)ilical power In tho state after a brilliant career in industry that brought him great wealth, has not permitted the legal tilt to disturb liim personally in adiiiistration of liis duties. Tie issued one statement and smilingly accepted service of the papers from Madison's sheriff. 4 VI K N N A (I1) Kra 1 1 Klsa Wis cnthal, one of tho most refined dancers of Vienna, hit upon the original idea (if conducting an or chestra by the lnoveniontH of her huad. No Hoonnr hnri this idea flashed In her mind than all Vienna took it up with zest. The impulse, says Trail Wiseri thal, which used to come from the conductor, will now come from tho dancer. To this conception of the "dancsing conductor" she has given the name of "Hattnta dances." Dancing, according to this new theory, will no longer bo passive nor dependent on music. It will now be an uetive driving force. Any nign given by the dancer to the orchestra is to he an "artistic stim ulus," or, as Frau U'ispulhal rails It, "theme." Thin is to result in new and closer reltlons between 0 the dancer and tho music. Tho dancer's movements will Wd tho orchestra and at the same time he or she will be carried by its sounds. Under this mutual influ ence closer unity of dancing and music is to ho attained, leaving Boopo for tho imagination. Frau Wfscnthal says that she will present her subject before the In ternational Congress of Dancers in Paris this fall. rAIUfi (P) The smart gloves for1 winter arc to bo gauntlet or pull-on typo w(th fur trim.

"Mr. Wayne, I had arranged with Professor La;; ton of the British Museum to meet my friends here this afternoon to hear Mr. Poll's description of the excavations.

I suppose nothing else has occurred to' you gentle men os a teat of what actually happened?' I looked at him wondcritiKly. "There Is." he added, "on al most infallible test. Some time be fore we leave this room it must be applied. Now, if you like. It's for you to choose." He suddenly pointed h!s finger at me. "Mr. Grenofen," the inspector said, "on the instant ot the shoot ing all seven- rushed to the fallen man thwn, without other move ment, six took the, chairs and Mr. Fotherbury went to the telephone?" "As far P3 I observed yes." "After that,' the inspector con tinued, "nobody moved until I came." "Nobody." "Then." said Mr. Wayne, "if we now proceed to discover the run that fired the idiot, we shall ease th minds of six out of the seven." The effect of these simple words was electrical the words we had dreaded, had not dared to n'fer. CHILDREN PROTESTED j M.IHSOy, Wis.

One solitary ,BBure remained Marling, sitting' in the chair by Hie hearth, deathly palo and agitated. I think that was (ho most appall ing moment I ha ever . ,Iiv-d through. Six of us had' passed tho test. One had to be the seventh, anyhow but that It should be Marling! "You are a clergyman, sir," Wayne said after nn unbearable hesitation. "It you tell me that you have 110 weapon, I will accept your word." Marling rose and walked up to tho Inspector, a strangely impres sive man, with his pallid face, that ring of dark hair like a tonsure and his flying black robe. "Search me," said he, "just as you have the others." Marling hod jolued us when I opened my eyes for I coulil not endure the sight of Wayne passing hands over his clothing and the bewildered inspector, full of suspi cion, recardcl us with a deeper frown. Wayne disbelieved us. He was going back on his first theory of a colltuion between us. Then began that impotent visita tion by Wayne of every corner of tho great apartment. Althouch it was an oblong room with plain walls and little furniture except the table, and a few chairs, a thorough search for a pistol would have taken many hours. Any book of tho many thousands might have hidden It. Wayne walked slowly round looking at the cases, evi dently for signs of a recant dis turbance. He felt the cushions of tho two big chairs by the hearib. He stooped to look Into the wide chimney. Thus he worked round to the end of the room where we stood. There he stayed, looking down upon the body of Pell, from that to the door, and from the door to us. As Wayne stood contm plating the body of Pell, and manifestly in doubt as to hia next step, there suddenly entered my he.d a notion which assumed large importance afterwards. Was It possible that we were nl! suffering from hallucination? Thit we had not seen what wo thought wo raw? Or tha', with our minds strained In one direction by Pell's conduct, they had been unable to switch off quickly enough to grasp everything that happened? Wayne started at a movement made by the consinuie at the door. The man bent his head, in the at tituilo of list enitiK the sound of voices and steps were growing louder aloiiR the stone corridor. There was a loud rap on the door. Wayne gave a sign to the con stable, who drew back the bolls ind pulled tho door open. It swing back towards us so that, we co.ilii not see who had knorked.

A si boo I of journalism for the train' tic of it kind, bus been s tablihed at the I'nited Slates pen itentiary here by its warden, T. It. White. Dr. Cook, who Ls serv ing a. 1 4 -year sentence on a charge of lining the mails to de fraud, is i-dtor of the school' i non i hly pul-lit at ion, "The New Kru." Dr. Cook has p"iin d a "bill of rights" for t tie prison's latest branch of vocational training. I n an editorial the man who claimed to have discovered the north pole in lIHiS contends that the prison's journalistic school is but part of an "extensive cam paign to reawaken the sleeping mentality of :i,"it0 men" the peni tentiary's population. His analysis of public affairs, as viewed from a prison, includes these statements: "A prison school of journalism is new. so new that the announce ment will come to most educators as a questionable experiment. "The mess is not independent. as is often claimed no news ser- vice ever can be because it is 1 planted at the crossroads of life, where all is interdependent. j "Human betterment js all that a jail paper has to offer. . . . j The type of special training which! a prison school ot journalism can give must resolve itself into a system of adult education, a sal vaging of lost schooling.' "Crime is not due to a lack of education, but to an incapacity to! foresee the consequences of cvervj act. The warden ha this in mind ! when he seeks to industrialize all prison activities in a trade s hool. "Success in this new endeavor depends upon willing co-operation, and co-operation is the password to the wealt h of America's eco nomic empire." TOWER OF HISTORY IS IiriJAPKST.
