The Doctor Who Cured Prof. Seymour, of
the U, of W., to Settle in Our Midst.
Lorne Campbell, manager of the
Prentiss Magnetic Company, who is
in chr city today looking up location,
i4svFaps said;
We are nerve specialists, we treat
with magnetic. massage all nerve dis
eases that human flesh is heir to and
we contend scientifically that if there
is not depleted nerve il your system
you cannot be sick.
The tree of life is the spinal column,
its branches the nervous system, and
it's roots are at the base Of the brain,
and as life ascends from the earth
through the trunk of the tree and
nourlshes it's branches, so life descends
from the brain through the spinal
column and nourishes the body.
A branch passes out from the spinal
column to every function. If the root
of the branch becomes diseased you
are sick in the function; if the branch
is destroyed the function is instantly
dead or paralyzed, you are constipated.
Why? because the nerve branch passing
from the spinal column to the lOwar
intestines is diseased at it's root or
clogged. We agnetically massage,
drive life through the depleted nerve
until it fourishes, restore the nerve
root and you are we'll.
Our treatments are successful only in
eases of nerve diseases, such as nervous
prostration, valvular heart disease,
rheumatism, neuralgia, spinal trouble,
paralysis, epilepsy or st. Vitus dance.
We cure also as a matter of course the
lighter nerve diseases and cure untail
ingly chronic constipation, liver
trouble, bladder trouble, kidney
trouble, nervous headache, biliousness,
indigestion, lost manhood, etc. We
cure any of the last mentioned diseases
at nominal price of $40 to$15 for each
case; also we dissolve tumors. The
manager produced a testimonial from
Racine, signed and sworn to before
Notary Public, in which three chronic
epileptics of Racine declare themselves
cured at the hands of DR.. Prentiss.
He also showed similar testimonials
upon paralysis, st. Vitus dance, nerv-
Gus prostration, tumors and rheu
matism.
Let US welcome Dr. Prentiss to our
city.

Y. Quarles, Sr., was native of that
state, but his mother was native of
New York. Both his parents were
among, the earliest settlers of South
port, and were married there when it
was but mere hamlet.
Young Quarles pursued his studies in
the public schools and the high schools
of Kenosha, graduating from the latter
when he was IL years of age.
Tho following two years were spent
in teaching and earning money in other
ways for the expenses of a college
course, which he had set his heart
upon pursuing.
In 1862 he entered the University of
Michigan as freshman. He was con-
spicuous among his classmates from
the start, and, upon the organization Of
the class, was chosen its President and
class orator for that year.
He left his studies and enlisted in the
Thirty ninth Regiment of Wisconsin
Infantry and was mustered into service
as First Lieutenant of Company G. At
the expiration of his service he returned
to the university and graduated with
the class of 1866 with the degree of A. B.
He then entered the law department.
of that institution, spending a year
therein. Having exhausted his financial
resources, he returned to KenOsha and
continued his law studies in the Office
of O. S. Head, distinguished lawyer
of those days, with whom, upon his
admission to the bar in 1868, he formed
law partnership, the firm being Head
& Quarles.
The firm continued until the death
of Mr.. Head in 1876, and during six
years of its existence Mr.. Quarles was
district attorney of KenOsha county.
| In 1876 he was elected Mayor Of
KenOsha.
| In 1879 he was a member of the leg
islative Assembly, and in 1880 and 1881
he was the representative of Ken osha
and Walworth counties in the State
| Senate.
Removing to Racine, he formed
law partnership with John B. WinslOw,
which continued until that gentleman
was elected Judge of the First Judical
Circuit. Afterwards he had for part
ners successfully T. W. Spence, for
merly of Fond du Lac, and Joseph R.
Dyer. Afterwards the firm became
Quaries, Spence & Quarles, the Junior
member being a younger brother.
/ In 1888 this firm went to Milwaukee
where it commands large and diver
sified business.
Mr.. Quarles was married on Sept. 70,
1868, to Miss Caroline A. Saunders,
the daughter of a Chicago merchant,
a sister to DR., William Saunders of
this city.

The DANA society celebrated its
ninth anniversary at Central Music

which proved to be one of the most en-
iovable affairs ever given in KenOsha.
The society has been exceedingly pros

banquet on Saturday evening was sim

achieved during the past years. wa.

committee were careful to see that the
stars and stripes of Old Glory hung
high above the standards of their ma

their Denmark no less, but the colorS
of their adopted home more.
The BANQUET was the most enjoyable
feature Of the evening. 1t had Deen

of the members of the society and
showed that the ladies were we'll up IN

covers were laid for over a bNndred

pretty decorations of flowers and
Dlants.. Dinner was served at 90clock
and fer several hours the guests sat at
the table partaking of good Things and
talking of the many pleasures they had
enioved through the efforts OF the
DANA society. There we've no set

The Dania society IS one of the most
progressive and fl0uTishing societies OF
the kind in Kenosha, and during its
nine years existence it has been of in
calculable good to the DaDish popula-
rtiOn in Koaosha. 1t has also taken a
great burden from many Danish fami-
lies by paging sick benefits, and during
its existence nearly $4,000 have been
paid out in this manner. Over ST 1000
now remains in the treasury, and,
numbering, as it does, the best mem
bers of the Danish population in Keno

Kenosha's Speculative Attorney Finally
Makes a Hit.

Kenosha's Speculative Attorney Finally
Makes a Hit
When it was announced in the Chi.
cagO papers today that Isabella mine
stocks had taken an upward tendency
and jumped from $l.2O to $L8O, there
was one man in Kenosha who was ex-
tremely happy, and that was dreamy,
speculative Walter M. COwell. Years
ago, so long that the attorney had
almost forgotten it, Cowen held a
Judgment against Chicago man and
the debtor having no money turned
over to him several shares of what he
supposed was worthless stock in the
Isabella mine. Seeing no other col
lateral the Kenosha lawyer accepted
the stock and today his little debt of a
little over a hundred dollars promises
to stand him in hand many thousand
dollars.
Cowell was seen this morning and
was in his usual dreamy condition. He
said: Yes. I guess | made a good
thing on those old stocks after all. :"
He refused to say just how much the
deal has made for him, but the value
of his stocks are said to be several
thousand dollars.

TOOK AN EASY GAME.
CHICAGO WOODLANDS Go DOWN
BEFORE KENOSHA ATHLETICS.
PITCHER SAMPLE is HIT HARD
Local Team Prove That They Can Hit the
Bali when it is Necessary-Hermann
Makes His First Appearance and
Plays Fine Game.

The Kenosha Athletics defeated the
Woodlawn indoor base ball team OF
Chicago at Simmons Hall Saturday
evening by a score of IA to 4. The
game was one of the poorest exhibitions
of the sport ever seen in Kenosha, the
only redeeming feature being the fact
that it was an easy victory for the
local team.
The boys who came from Chicago
were amateurs of the worst class ana
seemed to know little or nothing about
indoor ball. On the other hand the
Kenosha boys put up game worthy OF
better opponents and won as they
pleased. Sample, who pitched for the
WOODLANDS, occupies the box for the
Englewood Cycling Club, which has a
firm hold on second place in the Chi
cago League. and he is reckOned as one
of the best pitchers in Chicago. Not
withstanding his reputation he was no
match for Mcclellan, and the Kenosha
boys, taking kindly to his delivery,
drove out fifteen of the safest kind OF
hits Weier and Cantwell led the bat
ting list by driving the ball over the
gallery for home runs.
The game started badly for the Ke-
nosha boys and the rooters in the gal
lery feared another defeat like the one
of the previous Saturday. In the first
inning the visitors made two hits, and
aided by an error by Harkin scored
two runs. They duplicated their work
In the third inning and led the Kenosha
boys by two runs. After this the home
players began to play bali and not
another Woodlawn player crossed the
home plate and only one of them got as
far as third.
The Kenosha boys scored in every
inning except the first and ninth and
the game at no time was in serious
danger. Cooper was unable to play or
account of sickness and Lis place g.
second was admirably filed by Peter
Hermann, who made his first appear
ance with the team. Hermann plays 6
fast, snappy game in the Geld and is 6
hard hitter. He will add not little
strength to the local team.

Concerning the Chickering- Wanamaker
Deal. .
Boston. Mass, Jan. IL, 1899.

Boston, Mass, Jan. IL, 1899.
Mr.. Edward Lyman Bill, Editor of the
Music Trade Review, 3 East l4th ST.,
New York, N. Y.
Dear Sir--In order that your readers
may have the facts regarding our con
nection with the Department Store
question, as represented in the Wana
maker Chickering deal, please publish
this letter in your next issue. These
points occur to us as likely to bear
upon the subject.
LIST. That we intend to spare neither
time, .aiRs nor expense to make the
ChickeitVg Piano the best IN the a00rtd
and to keep ats reputation the highest
Our success will be limited only by our
ability.
End. That we believe in and are
practicing the one price system in all
places that we control.
Sd. That Mr.. Wanamaker has given
us his personal assurance that he will
maintain our Boston and New York
basis of price and one price system.
4th. That Mr. Wanamaker's estab-
lishment is not a Department Store in
respect to the common notion that
such stores are the home of job lot pur-
chases and sales. His policy, as we
understand it, is to make each branch
of his esta blishment a perfect store in
itself, all of the highest standard of the
different kinds and grades of goods
represented.
9th. That Mr.. Wanamaker has
defoite territory for the sale of the
Chitkering Piano the same as any other
representative, mutually speaking at
will.

Attorney Peter Fisher has received a
letter from Congressman Cooper, in
which he gives most encouraging in
formation in regard to the River and
Harbor bill 1t was introduced in the
House on last Tuesday and Congress
man Cooper says he believes it will
pess unamended so far as the $l91 900
recommended for KenOsha is concerned.
He states that the press dispatches, in
which it was stated that an apprOpria-
ton of$500, 900 had been made for the
Waukegan harbor, were false and that
emily ST, 500 had been recommended for
the purpose of making survey. Mr..
Cooper attributes the success of this
city in securing the recommendation
FOR so large an appropriation as much
to the work of the citizens as to his own
personal work, but then everybody
knows that our Congressman always
was extremely modest, ard while the
citizens may deserve great credit, the
bulk of it must be given to our Wash

MARRIED AT KENOsHA>
Illinois Couple Keeps Romance Secret for
a var.

Alton, ILL.,, Jan. 28.-SOme days ago
the announcement was made that Miss
Martha j. Leo and James COppinger,
of this city, would be married on jan
uary 81 at Dallas, Tex. 1t develops
today that the couple have been mar.
ried more than year. Miss Leo was
her fathers boOkkeeper at the Madison
Vinegar company's works. COppinger
is one of the cOmpany's statesmen. The
couple we're married at Kenosha, Wis,
on December Is, 1897. The brides
father was then in Texas on business
trip, so the young lady could easily
absent herself from the office without
parental knowledge. The lady re-
sumed her position at the works and
has been there until few weeks ago,
when she left for Texas. The cere-
monY at KenOsha was performed by
Protestant, and as COppiDger is
Catholic, this fact will explain the sec
Ond marriage.
