KILLED BY THE CARS.
A Ten Year Old Boy Met Sudden Death
Saturday Evening.

A little 10-year old son of John Farr,
living at or near Russell, Ill, was run
down by the o'clock express Saturday
evening on the Chicago, Milwaukee &
st. Paul, and instantly killed. There
are two versions of the story, as told
by the farmers in the city today. One
was that the boy and his father were
driving over the track just ahead Of
the approaching train and the engine
struck the buggy, knocking it all to
splinters and throwing the boy some
sixty feet and breaking his neck. The
other version is one which seems to
come from reliable source and is be-
lieved to be the correct one. It has it
that the boy was playing about the
tracks, trundling hoop or something
Of the sort, and seeing freight coming
from the north he stepped on to the
other track to see it go by and the ex-
press from the south caught him and
threw him sixty feet or more away and
killing him. The family to which the
boy belonged is reported to be we'll nigh
distracted over the boys terrible death.

Death of Miss Jennie Mcclellan.

After an illness of long duration of
consumption, death came to the relief
Of Miss Jennie Mcclellan last Saturday
evening. Although the announcement
was not unexpected, yet many a heart
in Kenosha suffers pang of pain from
the passing away of one of our we'll
known young ladies. Having been
reared in this city, and lately teacher
in our public schools, deceased leaves
many friends in this community to
mourn her death. The funeral oc-

EVENTS IN KENOsHA SOCIETY
The Doings of Few Days Dished UP For
Our Readers

The Woman's club entered upon
their fifth year of work on Wednesday
last, when they held their first meeting
in their new club rooms. The rooms
have all been newly decorated by the
Club since coming into their possession
and are very attractive and home like.
One would scarcely recognize in these
rooms, with their soft, brown tinted
walls hung with interesting and pretty
pictures and their muslin draped win
dOws, the cold, bare looking billiard
room of the old Business Mems club
time. The book cases, too, full of
handsome books and the dainty tea ia
bles add greatly to the general effect.
Mrs. Fisher, the president, presided
over the meeting in a very graceful and
dignified manner The paper of the
day was on the Short Stories.0 the
essayist, Mrs. Rowe. The discussion
which followed this paper was ably led
by Mrs. CaYanagh, who showed per-
feet knowledge of the matter IN hand
by the easy manner in which she lead
the ladies from one topic to another.
Among those who entered most freely
into the discussion were Mrs. Kimball,
who did not believe Miss Wilkins sto-
ries were true pictures of life, and Mrs.
Meers, who, on the contrary, told the
club of little experience she had had
in New England life and said that to
her mind this author in her last story
had drawn a most perfect picture of
the New England old maid Mrs. Rowe
in her extremely we'll written and inter-
esting paper, said some disparaging
things about Richard Harding Davis;
but if he is not genius it is safe to say
that he is the most popular short story
writer of his day, and lit is question
why some of his admirers among the
club members did not get up and say
something to this effect. The meeting

Married Tuesday Evening.
Col. Frederick w. Engel and Mrs.
Mae Holly were united i'll marriage
Tuesday at 6 o'clock at the home of
the brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Will
liam Zimmerman, $50 La Sale street,
Chicago. The ceremony was very
quiet one, to which only a very few in
innate friends and relatives were in
vited.
Wednesday morning Mr.. and Mrs.
Engel went to Milwaukee to take in
the, semi-centenGial celebration, in
which Col. Engel participated as a
member of Gov. Upham's staff. After
the celebration they will take short
trip lasting a week or so. They will
make their home here after the tour,
but they are not exactly decided as yet
as to where in the city they will reside.
Mrs. Engel is pianist and organist
of ability and takes great interest in
musical matters. Mr.. Engel has lived
in Kenosha all his life and has a large
circle of friends who will join in con-
gratulatiOns.

Glover Of Kenosha; Lineman, Il.
Johnson, of Racine.
KenOsha won the toss and took the
north goal. The game was played on
the exposition grounds where there was
nothing left to be desired. In the
opening Of the game Racine kicked
to Kenosha's ten yard line. Kenosha
took the ball and carried it to Racine's
50-yard line. Slight gains were made
through left end and then Racine took
the ball on downs. They bucked the
line for small gains and then on criss
cross buck sent Hueffner through left
tackle and end for run down the
field. Kershaw, full back for Kenosha,
was responsible for this, as he was not
playing where he should have been.
Guilbert failed in try at goal. Kenosha
then kicked off to Racine's 30 yard linz
and Guilbert was downed for loss of
five yards by Kershaw. Racineo by
good gains by Hueffner, through holes
made by Lewis and Guilbert, worked
the ball to the center of the field where
they lost it on downs. Then the pref
test play of the game resulted. Bur
ton was given the ball anC with good
interference by the. backs and by
splendid fast running planked the ball
behind Racine's goal. The goal was
missed by Kershaw. Score, to 4.
On the second half Burton kicked to
Roadway, who muffed, but fell on it.
The ball then see sawed back and
forth, two points being made by Keno
Sha which resulted in gains. Much time
was lost in this half by arguments.
Burton was again sent around right end
and proved too fleet for any Of the Ra-
cine backs to tackle Burton kicked
goal. Score, 10 to 4.
In the latter half Lewis dslocated his
wrist bone, but pluckily staid in. The
game was married by no smuggling and
the Kenosha team is warm in it's praise
of the gentlemanly actions Of Manager
Baker and all the Racine boys. 1t
should be a source Of much congratula
ton that Racine and KenOsha are unit
ing in mutual sport. The Racine line
was much heavier than the Kenosha
line, but the work Of their half back
fell far short of that of the Kenosha
teams.
The two teams play next Saturday at
base ball park here at $3.50 p. m.

The Kenosha foot ball team went to
Racine last Saturday afternoon to play
the Racine Athletic foot ball team.
More strictly speaking a combination
team went from here, made up out of
the Kenosha Athletic club and the Uni

with the score of 10 to 4 in their favor.

Interesting Information Concerning
This Variety of Dock.
Results of Experiments at the Arizona
Agricultural College With This
Plant.

Canaigre has been used for many years
by the Mexicans both as medicine and
as a tanning material, but only in re-
cent years has it attracted attention as
an article OF commerce.
The supply of wild canaigre is becom.
ing limited. Good authorities state
that at the present price the supply will
hardly last more than two years. "At
present price" means the supply within
profitable hauling distance of the rail-
roads. II canaigre is only to be OBJ
tanned from the natural supply it will be
but an incident in the tanning trade.
But If, as the experiments at this station
show, canaigre can be proftably culti-
waited, it will soon become a permanent
factor with thousands OF acres of land
producing yearly hundreds of thousands
OF tons OF canaigre, and the problem will
be to get the tannic acid into the market
't iiiN NNSt lttilSts
Contrary to the reports OF most col
lectors, as being found in the plains and
low mountains on dry soil, this plant
grows to highest perfection and greatest
abundance in river bottoms and along
washes. 1t seems to prefer loose, sandy
soil which is flooded at times by heavy
rains. In such places it frequently
forms a dense, green growth twoor three
feet in height, resembling at distance
broad acres OF some cultivated crop. 1t
never occurs in large areas ON the higher
mesas or in the mountains; however,
small, iSolated patches are sometimes
found in the ravines between low noun
tains, and even occasionally on the drier
soil OF the mountain side.
The root is in use to some extent
among the Mexicans as a medicine. We
are told it is prepared by first burning
the root to coal and then pulveriziny
it. The powder so formed is made into
a broth and is one of the many panacea'
used by the Mexicans for all forms anC
conditions OF illness.

from % to % per cent. of fannie aid.
The wild root contained Oh the aver
The eagle. (Silver City, N.M.) 1894-1???, 1895-07-17

age 3O.5 per cent. of tannic acid, but
these were mostly old roots.
The cultivated roots seem to be grad
ually increasing in tannin, running up
to 2S per cent. in January, from which
we infer there is no serious decrease, if
any, in the content OF tannc acid due to
forcing the roots to larger growth by ir-
rigation and cultivation.
The development of new roots the
present winter on land that had been
under cultivation before, is greater than
it was last year on new land, and we
find also that new planting does not in
terfere with growth. From present in
dications rows thirty inches apart and
plants nine inches apart in the row will
yield as much per hill as when the rows
are planted one foot by three feet.
We have yet to find the first plant
growth from seed in the wild condition.
OF the hundreds OF plants dug up, we
always found the old tuber when we ex-
amined closely. We have grown small
plants from seed, but they have not
lived through the winter, we have not,
however, given this question special at
tention. We are now starting seedlings
in the green house and hope to develop
full growth plants.
OF the average sized roots OF large
growth, it will require about one ton PEI
acre for seed, planting nine by thirty
inches. Unlike potatoes and most Other
plants grown from tubers, the seed roots
are not lost, for after producing growth
OF new roots, the mother root, il but d
year old, retains its weight, and its con.
tent of fannie acid increases.
After removal from the ground, canal

While the wild growth is confined t,

ii the roots are planted shallow and irri

table for growing the plant than lighter
soils, owing to their greater fertility and
more lasting qualities without fertiliza-
ton.
1t seems not to matter seriously when
the roots are planted, the formation OF
new roots beginning in the fall from the
latter part OF September and continuing
on until March or April. If planted in
the late spring, leaves will appear and
die down at the usual time in May, when
the root planted will lie dormant through
the summer and begin the formation of
the new crop of roots at the regular sea-
son with no apparent advantage or dis
advantage as compared with roots plant
ed just before the growing season.
If the soil is kept dry, they may lie
over until the next year, and then pro-
ceed to grow in the usual way when
moisture is supplied.
Under cultivation the habits of the
plant may be modified to some extent,
and we may find on further investigation
that our present conclusions are some
what in error in regard to the particular
habits OF growth OF the plant.
With the crop planted in the fall, as
has been stated, growth above ground
ceases the following May, but the roots,
although they remain dormant, grew
gradually richer in fannie acid during
the year, but the increase is quite slow
after July. With rain or irrigation in
the fall, the leaves appear above the
ground and new bunch OF roots is start
ed, but so lar as we have observed, the
entire hill will produce no more new
roots than would each single tuber il

A point We have not yet determined is
whether or not tne one-year-oiu Toots
increase in size the second year. They
certainly grow richer in fannie acid. II
they continue to grow, it may be found
