The University of Wisconsin la loca
ted almost In the center of the city of
Madison. The campus. Including the
university farm, comprises about 450
acres. .This campus is washed on one
side by a beautiful lake called Men-
dota. clear as crystal, and having a
depth sufficient to flont a battleship
with ease. On the opposite side of the
city, and In sight of the campus Is lake
Monona~for the city is built upon a
peninsular, made by these two great
lakes. There are a couple of other
lakes nearby, all four communicating
with each other, and discharging Into
what Is known as the Catfish tribu
tary of Rock river, and thence into the
Mississippi. It is an Ideal place for a
great university. While the city Is the
capital of the state, yet the college
seems to be the principal object of In
terest. In fact It is the eye of all Wis
consin. It is the center of Intelligence,
and the leader of advanced thought for
the whole state.
The university comprises five great
schools, the college of letters and
science. The college of mechanics and
engineering. The college of law. The
college of agriculture and the graduate
school.
It has about 250 professors and
teachers, and its catalogue shows an
actual attendance, for the current year
ending 1004 of 3151 students.
Its income Is more than three quar
ters of a million dollars per annum,
(they hope to reach the million
1005) and yet its tuition is free,
fact It Is the head of the free school
system of the state, the sutdents pass
Ing through the primary schools to
the high schools and thence to the
university, all at the expense of the
state. It has very little private en
dowment. Its Income and resources
coming almost entirely from appropria
tion!: made by the state and general
government. Its laboratories, museums,
libraries and observatories are as fine
as can he found In the United States.
Its vnsf Income enables !t to adopt Its
education to the wants of the state.
It Is the center of nil discovery and
research In the domains of hygiene,
mechanics and agriculture, with nil
relative sciences, In the territory which

Albert Henry Run Over on
Bay Street
EXPIRED AT HOSPITAL
IVA agricultural college has been of
Incalcunble benefit, to the farmers
and cattle raisers of Wisconsin, for
having united with it the experiment
station supported by the United States
government. It has gotten In touch
with the farmers, the dnlrymen, th*>
workers In the creameries, and the
common farm hands, throwing open Its
doors by short and long courses to all
classes and ages, and teaching by ex
periment and theory the best methods
of doing work in every Industrial de
partment of the farm and home.
Here Is found the secret of Its popu
larity and Its brilliant success. It has
become a necessity *.r> this great agri
cultural and stock raising people.

Inspiring to n Georgian.
Wisconsin has n* campus of 450 acres;
Georgia has 175.
Wisconsin has 15 Instructional build
ings; Georgia has 4.
Wisconsin has 16 other buildings on
her enmpus: Georgia has 9.
Wisconsin has 250 professors; Geor
gia has 85.
Wisconsin has 3,000 students; Geor
gia has 450.
Wisconsin has an income of $800,000;
Georgia has $66,000.
Wisconsin has a llbrnry building that
cost $620,000; Georgia's new building
cost $50,000.
Wisconsin has 86,000 volumes In her
library; Georgia has about 25.000.
Of course this comparison does not
Inclgde the branches of our university.
But while the Institution leads the
Georgia school In these respects, yet
the latter has some advantages. WIs
cousin has only a small loan fund of
$5,000 to aid Its dependent students,
while Genrgln has $50.000—thanks to
the beneficence of Gov. Tlrown. And
this fund Is constantly growing with
us. It wns somewhat disappointing
to find in the catalogue of the great
university these words: "Those de
pendent upon themselves for support

versity more than 20 young men who
have no "reserve” save the scholarship
fund above referred to.
It was no small gratification to me to
find that there was another featuro
connected with the great university In
which our Georgia school is not at
disadvantage. I mean the technological
annex. While the majority of the
board of trustees were engaged in
amtning the agricultural department,
looking over the creameries and the
cheese manufactories, and the milk
tests and the Innumerable ether things
provided for the use of the farmer,
your correspondent was devoting him
self to a painstaking examination of
the mechanical equipment.
In company with Frof, C. I. King,
who Is the superintendent In charge
of the school of practice in the me
chanical department. I inspected the
entire outfit. While the institution Is
by no means behind the world In this
branch, yet I was gratified to find that
its equipment fell short of our own in
many essential particulars. 1 say this
In no unworthy spirit. It whs the only
comfort left In a comparison of the two
universities.. There was no textile de
partment annexed to it and the foun
dry and machine shop are not well
equipped as the Georgia school. It Is
true there Is a finer mechanical labora
tory. but the machines used in actual
work were considerably behind those
In our own school.
It was In no sense to the discredit
of the university that this state of af
fairs should exist. 1 was informed
that there Is not a single iron fur
nace nor cotton mill within the limits
of the state of Wisconsin. The ne
cessity for special emphasis of these
departments did not exist. In short,
the glory of this great Institution is to
be found In the fact that Its teaching
Is directly adapted to the wants of the
people of the state. Agriculture is em
phasized. while the mechanic arts re
ceive all the attention that a great
school like this would be expected to
give to them; civil engineering, and
mechanical engineering, are especially
brought up and stand along side the
other great departments, and the edu
cation in the literary courses is as
good perhaps, ns nny In the Union.
But while ns a Georgian I wai| gratified
to know that our technological school
was not behind the best in the North
west. yet 1 did find causes of chagrin
In the situation.
The mechanical department of the
Wisconsin Institution at the last
slon of the legislature secured an ap
propriation of one hundred thousand
dollars ($100,000) for the building of
a chemical laboratory. This magnl
firent structure wns In course of erec

Informed me that nt the next legisla
ture It was expected to secure an ad
ditional appropriation of $50,000 for an
equipment.
How vivid the contrast between this
sum, and the small appropriation of
ten thousand dollars ($10,000). secured
by the Georgia school at the Inst legis
lature for the erection of a chemical
laboratory, and put upon the condition
too that an equal amount should he

In His Family
Finds It an
Remedy
Albert Henry, a white switchman for
the Central rallrond, was run over at
the Bay street crossing yesterday
morning and sustained injuries from
which he died Inst bight at 11 o'clock
at the city hospital. A switch engine
backed some cars over him and
cut ofT hts left artn, fractured hta
Hkull and otherwise Injured him. the
extent of his Internal Injuries being
unknown.
At 11 o'clock Switchman Ilenry, wm
standing nt his post of duty at th<
Bay street crossing and had Just turn
efi a switch engine into another track
when one approached from behind. He
seemed to have taken no notice of the
approaching curs and engine and be
fore any one could warn hltn.he was
knocked down and bndly crushed as he
lay near the rail.
Those who first reached the Injured
man stated that from appearances he
had neon the cars too late to clear the
track but had made an effort to escape
and was caught and fell with his left
arm across the rail and his body be
tween the tracks. Ho was dragged
some distance and badly tilt about the
head and inashed about his chest.
When taken from under the cars the
switchman >vqs conscious and remain
ed so throughout the day. ' He could
not speak above a whisper and when I
carried to the hospital In a private am- I
balance he had difficulty In Iflvlng hin
name. No further attempt wns made I
learn from him how the accident I
urred. No one saw him at the
moment when the cars struck him and
supposed that he stood on the
track with his back to the cars.
The arm was crushed from the elbow
to the shoulder and almost completely
cut off by the wheels of the cars. The
limb was removed when he reached the
hospital and the surgeons mode every
effort to save the Injured man hut ho
Morse from the time of the ac
cident. The engine and Hfveral ears
passed over tho hotly as It lay between
the tracks.
Switchman Henry wns 23 years old
and has a mother living In Macon.
He resided with her on Boundary
street for some time. The two had
formerly moved from Bellevue to the
city. He had. been an employee of the
Central railroad for some time nnd en

acter.

P ERITNA is known from the At
lantic to the Pacific. Letters of
congratulation nnd commenda
tion testifying to the merits of Peruna
as a catarrh remedy are pouring In
from every State of the Union.
Dr. Hartman Is receiving hundreds
of such letters dally. All classes write
these letters, from the highest to the
lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor nr-
tlsnn. the clerk, the editor, tho states
man. the preacher- all agree that Pe-
runa is the catarrh remedy of the age.
The stage and rostrum, recognizing
catarrh as their greatest enemy, are
especially enthusiastic in their praise
nnd testimony.
Any man who wishes perfect health
must be entirely free from catarrh.
Catarrh Is well-nigh universal; al
most omnipresent.
Peruna Is the only absolute safe
guard known. A cold is the beglnn'.ng
of catarrh. To prevent colds, to cu-e
colds, Is to cheat catarrh of Its vlc-
Urns.
Peruna not only cure* cstarrh, but
E revonts it. Every household should
o supplied with this great remedy for
I coughe, colds and so forth,
I The Ex-Governor of Oregon Is an
ardent admirer of Peruna. Ho keeps
It continually In the house.
In a letter to The Peruna Medicine
Co., he says:
State of Oregon,
Executive Department,
The Peruna Medicine Co.. Columbus, O.
Dear Sirs—I have had occasion to
use your Poruna medicine in my fam
ily for colds? and it proved to be an
excellent remedy. I have not had oo-
cation to use it for other ailments.
Yours very truly,
W. M. Lord.
It will be noticed that the E*-Oov-
ernor says he has not had occasion to
use Peruna for other aliments. The
reason for this Is. most other ailments
begin with a cold.
Using Peruna to promptly cure colds,
he protects his family against other
ailments.
This is exactly what every other
family In the United States should do—
keep Peruna In the house. Use It for
coughs, colds, la grippe nnd other
climatic affections of winter, and there
will be no other ailments In the house.
Such families should provide them
selves with ii copy of Dr. Hartman's
free book, entitled. "Chronic Catarrh."
