Henry Hunter case.

The case of assault and battery
against Henry Hunter and his wife,
which has been causing so much
excitement in the northwestern part of
the county, was finished Tuesday
evening by Hunter being fined $l00
and costs and his wife $25. This is
the second complaint in the case, the
first one being made by the boys
father, E. Proctor. This complaint
was sett ed out of court by the defend
ant paving $100 and all the bills
incurred from the injuries to the boy.
This last complaint was brought by
Alfred Horton, an uncle of the boy,
and was very specific. The stories
told by the witnesses last night show
that the first storylEof the indignities
practiced upon the boy we're not in any
way overdrawn and that the treatment
which he received in the home of the
Hunters was even more horrible than
at first reported. Officer NewhOuse
brought the man and his wife in last
night and they asked for an immediate
trial. This was hardly suspected, and
all the witnesses desired by the prose
cution were not present, but the
attorney for the defense stated that his
client desired to enter plea of guilty.
Hunter and his wife we're in court and
seemed very anxious that no investiga-
lions should be made in regard to the
affair. The case was one of the
gravest under tho law and under the
circumstances the justice thought that
the heaviest penalty was none to strong
and Hunter and his wife were fined
1925 and costs, which he paid. One
of the interested parties was seen this
morning and stated that the case was
not by any means ended, but that a
suit for damages would probably be
filed in short time.
The assault of Hunter has proved
very expensive to him as it has already
cost him nearly $500 ana with
of a suit more trouble is
in store for him.

WINDSOR BAND REPLIES.
corrects Statements Made by Prof Jacoby
in Mondays Issue.

In MONDAY ISSUE
Editor News-We feel it unjust to
our organization and its many friends
to allow Mr.. Jacoby's article in your
Monday evening issue to pass unno-
ticed, and while we have no wish to
make your excellent paper the medium
of an exchange of charges and counter
charges, or for the airing of personal or
professional differences, we do ask
space for brief reply to the article
mentioned.
1t would seem, from Mr.. Jacobys
article, that three members of our band
did all the bands business and directed
all its movements. If this be true what
were the other eighteea doing all this
time? Each member has one vote in
all matters of general interest to the
band, and, as in other bodies of like
nature, the majority rules. The ex-
director has certainly become mixed as
to his facts.
We hold it to be our unquestioned
right to effect changes in our manage
ment, just as Mr.. Jacoby says he found
it necessary to make changes in the
membership, and for identicaIly the
same reason-the good of the band as
a whole. The director of band or a
bank is not greater than the men who
placed him in his position, and who
pay him for doing the work that posi-
ton entails.
Why the name of our superintendent
should be dragged into this controversy
we cannot imagine, as that gentleman
has had nothing to do with the present
ENHANCEMENT at all, and has simply
labored in his quiet way for the good of
the band, as he has, in fact since it's
organization. Perhaps, however, the
writer of the Monday night article felt
the need of moral and material support
in his reach for newspaper notoriety
and seeks it in that way.
We have, whenever opportunity
offered, gladly and honestly accorded
to Mr. JacOby all the praise and en-
dorsement a man of his musical taste
and talent can command and deserve,
and do so today. But because a man
plays the violin we'll it does not follow.
necessarily, that he can TEACH the lrt
to others, or that he must, as a mater
of course, be competent to direct
brass band or lead vocal chorus. All
around men are scarce in musical as in
other branches, either of art or Of
industry. And in saying this no dis
paragement is intended of Mr. Jacoby
personally or of his musical abilities.
We are glad to hear that M :. JacOby
is to remain in Kenosha and that he
will have charge of another musical
organization. Competition will hurt
none of us. In fact, it may prove
much needed stimulant to regular,
systematic practice and renewed effort
on the part of every band member
The park will be open, doubtless, to
all Of us this coming summer. Mr..
Jaeoby will be there, for he says he
will. Mr.. Thomas Swan and the Wind
sor band will also be there, though
they haven't said much about it up to
date. The crowd will be there, and
the weather, too, so we may look for
ward to very pleasant session all
round this coming season.
Yours hopefully,
THE WINDSOR BAND.

appalling death that still threatens inno-
sent men. It is a slow and lingering death
from consumption. One-sixth of the hui
man race die from this relentless enemy of
humanity. Probably no subject connected
with health is SO important and so little
understood as the conservation of vital
force The human organism is a wonderful
machine. and is so constructed that if ex-
haustive draughts are made upon the vital
forces during youth and middle life, the
mechanism responds for the time, but at the
expense of its future usefulness The man
who overworks or exhausts himself day
after day is constantly overdrawing his
store of vital force. Finally the mechan-
ism of supply breaks down and the man
becomes a physical bankrupt The me-
chanism of supply in man is his stomach.
There the food is transformed into vital
force If the stomach is weak and the dl-
gestion impaired, the body ceases to re-
ceive and store I'D vital force. If the
draught is continued, consumption or some
other equally fatal disease is the result.
DR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is a
great producer of vital force. It enables a
man to daily store up energy to do. almost
any amount of work or stand any amount
of exposure. It does its work through the
stomach 1t makes the weak stomach
strong 1t facilitates and increases the
flow of digestive Juices. 1t promotes and
perfects the assimilation of all the life
giving elements of the food It is the
great b1ood-maker and fesh-builder.
Mr.. F. NJ Robinett, of Xenophon, Tenn
writes: ." can heartily recommend DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery for indigestion and
torpid liver. I was very bad off and tried diff
to give the Golden Medical Discovery trial
ard soon began to improve. fit had not been
for DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery be-
1eve would not be living to-day

BOARD OF EDUCATION MEETS.
Discuss Many Proposed improvements but
Take No Action.

The board of education met in
regular session Tuesday evening at the
city hall. Very little business was
transacted, but a great deal of informal
discussion took place, from which
future results may be expected. The
president of the board was ordered to
prepare a report on the doings of the
board while in attendance at the recent
meeting of school boards at Milwaukee.
The usual number of bills allowed and
the ordinary routine business was
transacted. After this the members
discussed the question of better
ventilation for the Durkee school, but
no action Was8taken until further
examination was made. The question
of new school site in the southwestern
part of the city was also discussed and
their is strong probability that such
a building must be built before the
opening of another year.
The second wards troubles were
also considered, but no definite action
was taken on any Of these subjects.
