III Health Compels a Well Known Primary
Teacher to Retire
Miss Anna Rogers, who was engaged
by the Board of Education as prim-
airy teacher at the Frank school, has
been forced on account of i'll health to
resign her position and the resignation
has been accepted and will go into
effect at once.
In the resignation of Miss Rogers
the city schools loose one of the best
teachers. Miss Rogers was one of the
best primary teachers in Wisconsin and
has been connected with the Kenosha
schools for over three years. Her
power over the children has been
nothing less than marvellous. The
Board has been fortunate in securing
Miss Elizabeth Robinson TO fill the
place made vacant by the resignation
of Miss Rogers, and the new teacher
will commence her duties, Monday
morning. Miss Robinson has taught
in the Kenosha schools for four years
and is considered splendid primary
teacher.

MR.. YULE GIVES $500
PUBLIC LIBRARY is AGAIN THE RE-
CIPIENT OF A PRINCELY GIFT.
WILL BE USED FOR NEW BOOKS
Mr.. George Yule Has Now Given over $4,000
to the Support of the Library and to
Him More Than Any other Man
Is Success Due.

There is great rejoicing among the
friends of the Kenosha Public Library
today, for late Wednesday afternoon
Mr.. George Yule handed one of the
directors a check for $500 as contri
button to help the work along. The
princely donation was entirely I'M
expected and hence coming as great
surprise was doubly welcome.
To George Yule more than any other
one man in Kenosha the city owes the
existance of it's public library. Count
ing his gift of Wednesday his contri-
buttons to the library now amount to
$4,000. Mr.. Edward Balm has been a
close second to Mr.. Yule and his gifts
have reached $500 Mr. Yule not
only gives his money for the assistance
of the carrying on of the work but he
has always been greatly interested in
the workings of the library. When the
institution was first opened Mr.. Yule
made a gift of $1,000 and about year
ago he gave half as much again offering
to give half as much again if the direc-
tors would raise from small contrib
utions $1,000. This they were unable
to do and Mr.. Yule grew tired OF
waiting and placed the money where it
will co large amount of good.
This latest gift of Mr.. Yule to the
library will be used almost entirely in
the purchase of new books. During
the past year nearly all available funds
were demanded to meet the running
expenses of the library and very few
new books were placed on the shelves,
but now the long list will be revised
and many volumes purchased.
According to the statement of one OF
the directors the average cost of the
books for the library is ninety cents
volume and at this rate Mr.. Yule's gift
will add more than $50 books to the
library and increase the number of
volumes to over 1000.
Since the appropriation has been
made by the city the directors of the
library are beginning to speculate on
the prospects of securing building in
which to shelve the books and if few
men with as much public spirit as
George Yule will come to the front with
similar donations the dreams will be
realised in the near future.

The Spot where He was Born.

G. D. Holt, who is preparing to move
his family from Pleasant Prairie to this
city, today celebrated his sixtieth
birthday anniversary in way that is
seldom seen in Kenosha county, and at
noon today jolly family dinner party
assembled to celebrate the event on the
very spot where Mr. Holt was born
sixty years ago. The party today was
also farewell to the old home where
the Holt family had lived for many
years and this fact furnished food for
reflection. During tho sixty years that
Mr.. Holt has lived at the old home
stead Kenosha county has wonderfully
advanced and the genial sixty year old
farmer has always exerted his best in
fuence in moulding the history Of his
home town and county.

ARE DEFEATED BY 1900 POINTS
Racine Bowlers Take the Kenosha Players
Into Camp,

The members of the Schlitz Globes
and Maple bowling teams went to Ra-
cine last night for a return game with
the Belle City bowling club which was
defeated in this city week ago by a
score of over 400 points. The game
was played at Louie PetersOns alley on
Sixth street and the KenOsha boys
we're never a serious factor in the game.
Their opponents played all around
them and when the game was over
their side of the column was over 1900
points the longer. The Kenosha boys
have no excuses to make for their de-
feat but claim that chang in the way
of scoring made it much larger than it
really should have been.
In the matter of games the two teams
are now tied and deciding game for
the championship of Racine and Keno
sha will be played on the Maple House
alley next Thursday night. The Re
nosha boys are loud in their praises of
the royal manner in which they were
entertained by Mr.. Peterson and the
Racine bOwlers.
A delightful supper was served for
the Kenosha team and everything was
done to make them enjoy their visit
hugely.
