on the list was a certain print of the
Louvre. | don't see why Mrs. \. was
SO fussy about that special print.
There is no use trying to delude her
with one | could run out and buy here,
and don't suppose one of these m rsdirs
would do instead" For Mrs. \. was
her mothers dearest friend, an au-
thrifty on art. who knew her Europe
and was an adept in explaining the
value of early prints.
And so it ran down the list. She
had promised clock from Nmem-
berry, tailless ManX kitten, seri IS
of canoes of the Augustine cmperOrs
in miniature to be secured only in
Rome, and various other articles sim
ply out of the question to procure now.
oh, the poor, gOod-natured girl! How
she suffered for her amiability!
So she went out in desperation and
bought glOVes-boXcs of them--dOzens
of them. She bought all sizes and col
Ors Gloves for Uncle Joe. who never
wore them; gloves for Mrs. A.. who al
ways wore a particular kind, imported
specially for herself, and those the girl
bought weren't that kind: she bought
gloves for the people who had asked
her to choose stockings, jewels. real
lace and corsets for them; she bought
gloves for the sister who desired her
to ransack France for a real Napoleon
plate, and she bought gloves for the
other girl who wanted set of photo
graVures of English Cathedrals pur-
chased on the spot oh, the good
natured girl had troubles of her own.
Good-natured people are occasionally
men, They are the ones who get scold-
ed by their wives for being so polite to
other people. They are generally very
nice men, indeed, ! saw one the other
day who had been a martyr to his
amiability lie was Mr.. Gerwig. the
private secretary of Governor Stone,
who has just returned from a trip
abroad with the governors daughters.
Everybody likes Mr.. GerWig and he
never seems to mind the trouble he is
given by others. That morning he
was discovered deeply absorbed i'm a
task which vastly surprised Il visitor
to his office. She immediately ejacu-
later, Dear me, Mr.. GerWig. Won

one thing, that this Is a blessed sight

heads from note paper and he had "A
stack of crests, coats-of-arms, seals.

a monogram-fan girl out of her mind
with delight. THE fact is" he eX-
planned, "a friend of mine asked me to
bring a letter head from every hotel
where we stopped ON the other side.

result" And he pointed solemnly 10

persons earnestly busted with the same
work engender. This plan has been,

UPHOLDS GUNTHER.
Citizen and Taxpayer of Paris Stands By
Their Supervisor.

Citizen and. Taxpayer of Paris Stands BY
Their Supervisor.
There has been so much written
condemning the action OF the seven
country members of the county board
in refusing to purchase lot for the
proposed soldiers monument, and as
our supervisor, Mr.. Gunther, has been
especially chosen as target for abuse
and vilification | wish to say word IN
his defense. Now in the first place Mr..
Gunther's action is heartily endorsed
by the people of the town of Paris.
Then, I suppose, that the people of the
town of Paris are lot of narroWmlnded,
hide bound skin-tliDts in the estimation
of some of the editors of the Kenosha
papers. You may claim that we are
lacking in our appreciation of the old
soldiers, yet thirty three years ago,
when the wounds of these soldiers were
not yet healed, the town of Paris
erected a monument to their memory.
1t is not very imposing shaft, costing
but $3.50, but she paid for it herself and
solicited no aid from millionaire specu-
lators nor neighbOring municipalities.
Has the city of Kenosha or the great
and f1ourisbing town of Pleasant Prairie
done as much? 1t has pleased the
editor of the Gazette to liken these
country members to band of Indians.
We hope that these same seven savages
or their successors in Office will ever
again put on war paint and feathers
when asked to vote taxes to erect a
shaft as an ornament to the city of
Kenosha and a monument not to the
ex-soldier but to one mans generosity.
If it were not for the bowling of some
of these Indians we would no doubt
now be paying for pleasure drive
between Racine and KenOsha.
Furthermore. Mr.. Gunther needs no
mans pity. AS man who pays his
honest debts, as conscientious christ
ian gentleman, as public officer who
tries to live up to his oath of office be
is a peer of the gentleman who intro
duced that ordinance or any other
member of the county board.

SCHOOL BOARD MEET
BOARD or EDUCATION HOLDS a
REGULAR MEETING.
INSURANCE RATES REDUCED.
Report of Committee on Construction of
New Building Shows Many Things Not
Done According to Contract.-Many
Big BillssAre Allowed

The Board of Education held it's
regular monthly meeting at the Central
school building last night and several
matters of more than usual interest
came up.
The report of the committee having
charge of the construction of the new
Deming school was presented ana
shows that in many ways the work has
not been done in accordance with the
contract. However the deviatiOns in
the building are of little Importance
and do not in any way lessen the use
fulness or stability of the new school.
A lengthy communication was received
from Peter B. BOyart of Milwaukee
who put the heating plant in the school,
asking that the Board of Education
adjust difference between Contractor
Betting and the firm who placed the
heating apparatus. AS there was no
chance of lien being filed on the
building on account of the difference of
opinion between tho two contractors
the board decided that it had no
authority IN the case and the cOmmunl-
cation was promptly tabled.
The finance committee had not as
yet found a way of meeting and could
not report on the bill of Contractor
Betting, but Commissioner Burg report
ed that he had succeeded in reducing
the insurance and now had a rate of
ST. 40 for 3 years on all buildings. This
will result in considerable saving to the
board as in some cases they we're paying
as high as $1.70. The superintendent
reported that he had carefully exam
ined the course of study as outlined by
Prof. Wiswall. 1t makes very few
changes from the present course and
on the recommendation of Superintend
ent Mcdowell it was adopted and
ordered published together with the
rules recently adopted by the board.
A black board was ordered placed in
Miss Riley's room at the Frank build
ing and Commissioner Woodward was
instructed to have picture moulding
placed in the different rooms at the
Deming school.
Several very large bills were allowed
after which the board adjourned.
After the adjournment of the board
the committee on teachers held
private meeting and it is reported that
some changes in teachers may be
expected as a result of the meeting.

LORENZO DE MEDICl.
Interesting Lecture at Kemper Hall By
Mr.. Seymour.

Interesting Lecture at Kemper Hall By
Mr. Seymour.
Mr.. Seymour, popular lecturer of
New York, who has been giving a
course of lectures in the west has been
engaged to give three lectures on
historical characters at KemDer Hall.
He gave the second lecture of the
course Tuesday afternoon before good
audience of the girls and many of the
townspeOple.
The subject was Lorenzo de Medici.
Mr.. Seymour treated it from a
biographical view, and with brilliant
word painting made the past live
again. Florence, the guilds, the con-
spiracies, art and literature were living
scenes to those who listened to the
lecturer.
He began with sketch of the social
life and customs in the smaller Italian
towns during the fifteenth century,
dwelling especially on the lite in FiesOle.
He gave an account of the rise of the
Medici family, pOrtraying the wealth
and magnifeence of Lorenzo.
The conspiracy and attempt at
assassination, followed by the interdict
and accommodation sent from Rome,
and LOrenzO's heroism in surrendering
himself to the Neapolitans were wildly
drawn. The return of the hero to
Florence was followed by period of
rest in which Lorenzo became the
patron of art and literature, making
Florence the center of Italian civiliz-
alton.
Mr.. Seymour closed his lecture with
the death-bed scene of Lorenzo in
which he summoned SavOnavolO, be-
lieving that he was the only man who
dared to speak openly to him, although
the great preacher had always opposed
his ideas Of extravaganza and mag
niicence.
The third and last lecture of the
course will be given next Tuesday
afternoon.

WITH every caucus held by the
state legislators for the purpose Ct
nominating a United States Senator
the deadlock which was begun with
the fourth ballot has grown tirmer
Each ballot reveals a disposition on
the part of the supporters of the vari-
GUS candidates to cling to their re-
spective candidate, except in the case
of Mr.. Quarles, whose vote has fluctu-
ated just enough to make it appear
that he has been and continues to be
the victim of treachery and intrigue.
On the third ballot he reached his
greatest strength. This was an open
ballot, and may at least be regarded
as an evidence of the popularity of the
Milwaukee candidate. On it he only
lacked six of enough to nominate. On
the other hand the comparatively
small vote of at least three of the re-
naming candidates is an evidence that
their support is almost entirely local.
The same arguments for electing Mr..
Quarles to the Senatorship prevail now
which prevailed before the first caucus.
He is in every way qualified, and, as is
evident to any one who has at all
traversed the state and felt the pulse
of the people, is representative of the
people, and the most popular choice
among the candidates. 1t would be
impossible to satisfy the people at
large in Wisconsin by the election of
any ore but Mr.. Quarles. 1t might
crafty the passion and prejudice of his
contingencies to defeat a
| owerful rival but it would be an insult
to the public as well as to the successful
candidate. Mr.. Quarles is the logical
cannidate and should certainly be given
the nomination, which he undoubtedly
would get if spite and intrigue were
and common sense and
Justice substituted.

KEPT A GAMBLING DEN.
Frank Cray Has j. M. Rose Arrested on a
Serious Charge.


Serious Charge.
j. W. Rose proprietor of the CONNER
cial hotel was brought before Justice
Slater this morning on charge of con-
Quoting common gambling den. The
complaining witness is a man named
Cray who is employed at Nicholas
Pirsch's wagon works. He claims that
on January Is he gambled in the hotel
and lost considerable money and that
at that time all kinds of games of dice,
cards and chance we're in full opera
ton. The complainant names a mum
Der of prominent men as witnesses.
The charge is brought in such a way
that the statute provides very heavy
penalty if convicted and Rose is pre-
pairing to fight the case to the bitter
end. On account Of the absence OF the
complaining witness the preliminary
hearing was adjourned until Feb. lst.
Rose, who is the defendant in the case
was seen and vigorously denies all the
charges. He claims on the date men
toned Cray came into his place and
abused HE wife and was promptly
elected by her. On this account he
became very sore and made the COM
plant against Rose to get even.
The Commercial hotel has for some
time been rather suspiciously regarded
by lovers of law and order and the
present case may be able to throw
some light on the true condition of
affairs at the Market street hostelry.
