THE SUPERVISORS.
They Will fleet Again on Monday
Afternoon.

Mr.. Hall of Grand Island appeared
before the Board of Supervisors yes
terday and asked that the cross-road
on the island known as the Clarke and
Hall road be opened for travel The
road had been laid out some time ago
and declared public highway, but had
never been opened.
1t would be necessary, said Mr.. Hall,
to have the Surveyor stake out the
road so people can tell where IT runs.
The forty-foot reservation has not been
preserved, and people cannot tell where
to go.
The Surveyor was directed to go to
the island at an early day-on motion
of Supervisor McLaughlin-and estab-
lish the lines of the road.
A number of saloon bonds were read
and approved, and the board adjourned
till Monday next at D. m.

His Trial Unearths Scandal in Ger

The scandal in German political life
coming out in the trial of Herr Won
Tausch is attracting attention every
where. Won Tausch, for eighteen years
employed in the service of the secret
political police of Germany, is charged
with perjury, forgery and treason, and
the trial may end in a most dramatic
exposure of the seamy side Of German
politics, involving such men as Prince
Hohenlohe, the Imperial Chancellor;
Baron Won Bieberstein, the Minister of
Foreign Affairs, and others of similar

THE OLD, OLD STORY.
But the Red Seals Prevent Fraud.

One of the curious freaks of human
nature is the Unsuitable desire to be
noticed. If a man discovers or invents
something which is real blessing to
mankind il brings him fame or repu-
tation honestly earned, but Immediate
ly lot of little heads come up and
shout, Me, too" Notice me. too
Here, look this way, look at me, too >"
Nearly every other person one meets
nowadays drinks the new hot food
drink, Postum. the health coffee, and it
is SO well received that no doubt some
Me too" will begin to shout for some
one to notice their cereal drink.
The physician who invented the pro-
cess for preparing grain to make Post
um Cereal Food Coffee worked at it
about a year. He smiles quietly when
told that people may initiate his dis
covery. 1T is easy to brown some
rye or malt and call it coffee cereal,
but the public cannot be deceived.
There is but one Postum Cereal food
drink, and it cannot be Initiated
The genuine packages have large red
seals containing the words, 1T makes
red blood" and manufactured by the
Postum Cereal Company. Linn, Battle

entifically prepared to produce pun
gent, piquant, and highly nourishing
drink, which certainly does make red

DEATH OF OSCAR PRICE.

Well Known in Railway Circles Remains
Sent to Galesburg, Ill.
Oscar f. Price, attorney of the lii
nois lines of the Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy railroad, died at the Pennoyer
Sanitarium Saturday morning. Mfr.
Price, who has been i'll since his wife's
death two years ago, came to Kenosha
from Galesburg, ILL.,, with the hope of
obtaining relief. He was native of
Ohio. In 1858 he graduated with high
honors from Michigan university, and
two years later from its law school.
During the war he was with Col. B. O.
Carr in the quartermaster's depart
ment. On returning home he was ap-
pointed in 1865 local attorney of the
Burlington. In 1870 he was made di-
vision attorney, and in 1881 he was
appointed the solicitor of the lines,
which position ne has since held. He
was a member of the Illinois general
assembly in 1871 and 1872. He was 81
years old. The funeral services will be
held in Galesburg Tuesday morning
and it is expected that many railway
officials will be present. Galesburg
commandery, Knights Templars, of
which he was a member, will have
charge of the obsequies. The remains
have been shipped to his late home.

A Little RsAycle Law.

A new point in bicycle law, &ocOr-
ing to the Hotel Register, has recently
been decided in England, to the effect
that innkeepers are responsible for tue
loss of wheels stolen from their prem
ises. 1t was urged during the trial
that as a bicycle did not, like a horse,
consume prOvendor, and so bring profit
to the landlord, it did not come within
the law making innkeeperS liable in
such cases. In reply it was pointed
out that when similar question was
once raised regarding carriages, Lord
Coleridge had said it was absurd to
say that an innkeeper might receive
a guest, but refuse to receive his
carriage. 1t had, moreover, been
held that a bicycle was a carriage
within the meaning of the local gov
eminent act of 1888 The plaintiff
was accordingly awarded 92l COM
pensation. The case involves a point
that is interesting both to hotel
keepers and cyclists, and that Will
doubtless be raised sooner or later ia
this country as we'll as elsewhere.

PROF. HUTTON A GOOD ONE.
He Understands the Art of Teaching as It
Should Be Practiced.

Mr.. EDITOR-It was my privilege &c
spend a day in the Teachers institute
held in your city, and conducted by
Prof. Hutton of the Whitewater Normal
school, In observing his methods Of
instruction, / was impressed with the
thought that he was teaching some
thing more thar the subjects included
in the program.
Many of our so-called educated pee
pie are sadly lacking in clearness OF
style and accuracy of statement.
Teachers, lawyers, preachers fail III
making the impression they desire, be-
cause of indefiniteness and inaccuracy
in the expression of their ideas. Very
likely the blame for this is to be laid at
the door of their early instructors
Prof Hutton is just the man to correct
this fault. He is master of the Eng
lish tongue; clear cut in his ideas and
exact in his statements. He cannot
tolerate slipshod, bungling style Of
expression. He will pull up a poor
innocent school "marm" with a jerk
if she gets hairsbreadth outside the
boundaries of a definition. He wiz
make a bashful youth shake in flie
shoes, by insisting that he shall sag
just what he means, and tell only whst
he knows, and this is done so pleas
antly and so eDli7ened by flashes OF
humor, that no one can take otfense as
the strictness with which he is held to
the matter under discussion.
The teachers present looked like &
bright, wide-aWake set of young peO-
pie, and if they put into practice the
instruction given by the experienced
teachers who conducted the institute
the schools of Kenosha county SHOULD
be better than ever in the coming
year. Fl. L. B,

SAYS IT WILL CARRY FREIGHT.
j. " Quarles Talks About the Electric
Street Railway.

j. Y Quarles has been talking about
the Milwaukee, Racine & Kenosha
Electric street railway. He was talk
ing to Milwaukee reporter but he
said some things which will be OF in
tense interest to Kenoshans, so we
make use of a part of the interview, as
follows:
But the electric road between Ra-
cine ano. Milwaukee is not much of a
bonanz1 for the stockholders, is it? "
Its in its infancy, but it does a
good business and will be one of the
best pieces of property in this part Of
the country when it enlarges its
scope"
In what direction?
Freight. You may also write it
down in your little book that before
maBy years pass the freight in this
country will be carried on electric
roads, and the Racine road will be
hauling the milk and vegetables and
fruit to this market within FIVE years.
Just look at the proposition. A mer-
chant has to haul his shipments all
oyer the city to the freight depot, and
the carriage is large bill of expense.
The street railway passes his door,
doesn't it? Yes. Well, what's the
matter with loading the shipments
on ahe electric freight car right at
the store door, after night when the
business of the day on the street is
over. tell you it cost the Northwest
ern company more to put siding to
one OF the factories of Racine than it
did to build the electric road from Ra-
cine to Milwaukee.
1.-THE electric road is the poor mans
road 1t has no dead weight to carry.
1t has come to stay, and by the same
token, so has the bicycle. Look at it,
Twenty three pounds of machinery
carrying a man weighing 200 pounds,
with the least possible application of
power. I"
Then the big framed lawyer sized up
his anatomy, and cast an admiring
glance at his bike, as he continued:
Kenosha has doubled it's population
daring the past five years, and there
is the greatest excitement among
the farmers owning land along the
line Of the electric road. It's going to
give these cities a great deal Of help.
Matt Slush, with the supervisors OF
the intervening towns, has done a
good thing. They ought to receive
credit for it. They have changed the
public highway so that four crossings
of the Northwestern tracks have been
eliminated. They were dangerous
crossings, too. The supervisors COM
PEELED the company to buy a right OF
way wherever it became necessary,
down the east side of the North
western track, for a public highway
as we'll as for a right of way for
their line, and you can now drive from
Racine to Kenosha without crossing
the railsoad tracks. This electric road
will make it possible for the people OF
Kenosha to live out on the beautiful
strip of land on Pike river, where if
was the original intention to lay out
the town, The company is building
an iron bridge with stone abutments,
over the river"
