DEMOCRATIC COMMITTEE.
Fixed UP Few Campaign Matters and
Adjourned.

The democratic county committee
held meeting this afternoon. The
committee had two or three matters to
wrestle with and took them up in Wig
orous style.
The first matter was that of the res
ignation of John Kerwin as candidate
for county clerk. The rumor has been
in the air ever since the democratic
county convention adjourned that Mr..
Kerwln would not stay OH the ticket.
1t was given out by his friends that he
was out Of politics and that he did not
care to make a campaign. The rumor
was several times denied from official
sources apparently on the best Of au-
thority, but the matter was set at rest
today by the receipt Of letter of de-
clination signed by him and directed to
the county committee.
The next matter was the replacing
of Abe Devlin, who had been nominat-
ed for superintendent of the county
schools. 1t was found after Mr.. Devlin
had been nominated that he was not
properly qualified for the position, as
he had no certificate of the required
class to back up his strong desire for
the job. AS a consequence he had to
be taken down.
There were several other matters to
come up for discussion, but they we're
mostly of minor character. For in
stance, there was the matter of placing
a populist on the ticket for some posi-
ton. The populists have done consid-
cradle kicking about what appeared to
be total turn down and several of the
leading democrats seeing that their
party was needlessly throwing away a
strong support, they laid the mat
ter before the committee. 1t seemed
entirely probable that some populist
would be selected to take Mr. KerWin's
place.
The availability of a certain one of
the candidates now up and who has
not withdrawn is now under discuss
ion. Whether be will be with
drawn or not is p small question
which will come up very soon. SO be-
fore voting time there may be several
changes yet in the democratic county
ticket.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1896-10-15
POPULIsTs TURNED DOWN.
They are Administered the Second Slap
by the Democrats.

The pOpulists were administered an
other severe drubbing by the demo-
Gratis in committee assembled this
afternoon. At the time of the county
convention it was sort of understand
ing that at least one populist was to
be given place on the county ticket
for the purpose of completing the
fusion which has been the order of this
campaign throughout the state. They
were not given this man, and as con-
sequence there was a tremendous kick
registered against the work of the con-
vention.
1t was held out by the authorities of
the county democracy that there would
probably be place or two made va
can't on the ticket, and the work of the
convention would then be remedied by
the selection of a populist to fill at
least one of the vacancies. The cOun-
ty committee met tAis afternoon at
2:3O o'clock at democratic headquar-
tiers, over T. j. Meyers saloon, and
finding that the county clerkship and
the SUPPLEMENTARY of schools needed
candidates they proceeded to hold a
very informal conference with the COM
mttee of populists which was present
to look after the interests of its party.
The populists proposed the name OF
Byron Tourtelotte, of Pleasant Prairie,
for county clerk. Then the committee
organized and proceeded to ballot for a
candidate for that Office. The infor-
NAL ballot showed eight votes, only one
of which was cast for Mr.. Tourtelotte,
five of the rest going to Henry Zeihen,
of Brighton. The ballot was at once
declared formal and thus the populists
we're completely kicked out
The vacancy in the superintendeDcy
was filled by putting on the name OF
William Middlecamp, of Paris, in place
of Abe Devlin, disqualified.
Immediately after this action the
populist committee met on the side
walk and decided to fight the demo-
cratic county ticket if matters are not
remedied very soon.

charge of the work. The great difficulty
with them at the present time Is that hey

when are you going to do something
toward the improvement Of Rsek Creek
Park?" was asked OF Major Powell, who
is at the head Of the board in charge.
II don't know was the reply. 1--WE
haven't a dollar to spend on it. No apprO-
| priation whatever has been made for the
purpose"
A little money has been used from the
general fund for improving county roads
| IN order to do some OF the most obvious
and urgent work. 1t has been applied to
| the opening and grading of roads, just as
| it might have been if no park had been
| in existence.
| One of these roads ru ms down at the left
| OF the bridge just east Of the intersec-
ton of the Pierce Mill road With the
Broad Branch road, and With trifling
| expense opens up to the general public one
| of the most beautiful stretches on the
| historic creek.
| OF course this could be reached before
| the way was opened by a rough climb
| through the tangle of underw God. Now a
| carefuul driver can take buggy or even a
| large carriage along the margin OF the
| stream and let his passengers enjoy the
pretty and roma ntic groupings of trees and
stones and water that recur with kaleido-
scopic effect at each turn of the road. This
| work was done in the construction of the
| Rock Creek intercepting sewer.
Another improvement is the grading dow n
of the tremendous hill at the end of Blag-
den's Mill or Argyle road. This does not
| open up new scenes, but it allows the Wis
itor to pass out from " hat otherwise is n
practical cul de sac. The hill even now
is long and steep and tortuous, a trial alike
to any team that is at all loaded and
to the driver who has bit Of feeling.

AN ARISTOCRATIC DWARF.
Borulwaski Was Small in Stature. but
Could Hold His Own.

Spare N1meats.
On September 8, / 1S3T, AT his cottage near
Durham, where he had lived in retirement
Tor many years, died Borulwaski. a Polish
, count, but WHO mad made this country the
hoIne of his latter days Though low of
| stature, he was Of high birth and breeding.
Which no doubt had caused his case TO be
frequently mentioned.
He was born in November, 1879, in tue
reign of George II, ard as lie did not die till
thcfirst year Of that Of Queen Victoria, ,atthe
age Of niDet y-eiC Cht years, he lived during
the reign OF five British sovereigns. At
one year of age he had attained to only
fourteen inches of ature; at six to
seventeen inches at twenty to thirty-three
inches and at thirty to thirty-nine inches
And he had sister named Anastasia. seven
years younger, who. when full grown, was
shorter than himself by a head and shoulders,
so that she could stand under his arm. But,
though so small in stature, he was hand
Some man, his body being OF the most per
feet symmetry, and lie was. moreover, not
only wit but something of scholar and
an accomplished gentleman, his mind being
cultivated to an extraordinary degree by
travel and study, for he had visited various
lands and many Of tie royal courts OF Eu-
rope. In early life lie had been exhibited
and had appeared as an actor, and George
", as Prince of Wales, had seen and
known him in those days.
1t is related in the Memoirs of Charles
Matthew's the comedian, thatin July, 1921.
when George had succeeded TO the throne,
he, previous to being crowned. had obtained
an interview with Borulwaski and in a most
| delicate manner offered him any pecuniary
help if he needed it to make his latter days
| comfortable. He ordered that his corona
| ton robes should be shown to the little
| count, and as favorite valet OF the king was
| dying who remembered the dwarf, Borul-
| waski visited the sick chamber at the
request CT George ". On his death on

ought to be done. There is way graded
from point q few hundred yards beyond
the picturesque stretch that begins soon
after entering the park by the road from
Mount Pleasant by Inglcsde as an extcn
sion of Park street.
1t meanders off along tie side of the hills
north of the main highway. and finally
reaches the crest between half and
quarter of a mile northeast of the Pierce
Mil and near Mt. Thomas Blagdcn's Argyle
line.
This roadway has never Eecn completed,
and is now grown up with weeds and brush.
1t would require very little expense to make
itpassablc, and itopens up quite a new view,
broad survey OF this most picturesque
section of the reservation.
Another point where great deal is con-
cealed behind the shoulders OF the hills
covered with heavy woods is southeast Of
bridge No. IS, where the old military
The morning times., 1896-10-18

road, constructed in war time to connect
Fort Stevens with Fort De Russy, crosses
the creek.
THIS was the line most vigorously attacked
by Gen. Early when he made his famous
raidin an effort to capture the Capital at the
close OF the war, and found only handful
of regular troops REINFORCED by quickly
organized companies from the departm ents,
the navy yard and the government works to
resist his progress.
At the bridge there is a narrow valley,
making a low ba nix to the stream on both
sides. and SO it continues for 200 yards
down. The stream spreads out and is
shallow and sluggish, with broad island
between its channels: then it turns sharply
tc the south and runs between high banks
for "a long reach toward Blagdens mill.
This Is entirely inaccessible except Il
the sightseer who is used to pushing through
underbrush and seeking out-of-the-way
places and experiences 1t would proba-
bly, require a considerable outlay to put a
satisfactory road into these hills, but it
would amply repay the expense necessary.
There is hardly "a more interesting series Of
hills in the park.
CREST OF THE HILLS.
Again there ought to be some means Of
reaching the crests of thehills upon one of
which is the remains of old Fort De Russy,
one of the few places where the remains
| of the extensive earthworks that were
thrown up to defend the Capital can still be
| traced
The ruined fort is on the top Of one of
| the highest hills anywhere in the vicinity.
| The walls of the quadrangle stand after all
these years eight to ten feet high, and are
| overgrown with young trees and shrubs

trees grown Up twenty to thirty feet tail.

a feature OF the improvement that has
been a good deal discussed is the building
Of road from one end of the park TO the
other, following the meanderncs of Rock
creek. This Would put before the eye all
the restful and pleasing slimpses of the
natural beauties with which the stre.m
is lined.
The adoption of the plan for this read
would present serious obstacle to lccat-
ing the lake above bridge l3, where the
government established a bridge across

are several points where the construction

accurately made to determine Just where
the water would go.
BUILDING OF A LAKE
One place that looks off-hand as if it
might be easily adaptable to the purp",e
is the valley around bridge No. 13. The
valley there, however, runs close to the
park line, and the building of lake would
probably encroach on some of the neigh
bors. This point will need to be con
sidered, wherever the site is chosen. CT
course, more ground may be obtained, but
if the owner should resist, very considerable
difficulties could be presented.
When the park was first talked of plan
was discussed for the construction OF a lake
by putting (, dam at the High bridge, where
the Chevy Chase line crosses the creek
This has not been spoken of as feasible for
several years.
About two years ago, when the proceed
ings for closing up the Work of the com mi s.

of laying out a lake at the extreme northern
end Of the park, where there is a piece
Of low ground, which it will be difficult
to use in any other way. The difficulty
encountered was the likelihood that the
water would be backed up so as to over
flow lands in Maryland. and then there
