THREE BURGLARS SENTENCED
Judge Slosson Sends a Trio of Criminals to
the State Reformatory at Green Ray.

A trio of criminals were brought be-
fore Judge S1osson this morning to
plead guilty to charges of burglary
which had been preferred against them.
They were John Zweedik, Edward Nc
Carthy and D. J. Literske. The first
of the company was mere boy, but he
is accused of being clever thief. A
short time ago he robbed a number of
Ho11anders of this city and managed
to secure quite a sum of money. The
other two were mere boys and could
scarcely be placed as criminals. A
few days ago while they were very
hungry they broke into the store of
Joseph Dalton at Silver Lake and car
RED off besides some food a number of
pipes. All of the men when brought
before the judge entered a plea of
guilty and were sentenced together.
They will be sent to the Green Bay
reformatory under the indetern1inate
sentence law and will not be held for a
period of more than three years. The
three boys will be taken to Green Bay
tomorrow by Sheriff Timme.

MattesOn House is Purchased and the
franciscan Sisters Will Take
Charge Next Week.
NON sECTARIAN INSTITUTION

In Connection with the Hospital will be
opened a Home for Old Ladies Where
They May Spend Their Reclining Days in
OComfort-A Club Room for Working Girls
will also Have Place in the Hospital
Building.
After many efforts have been tried
only to prove futile Kenosha is to have
hospital and today it was announced
that the Matteson house on Prairie
avenue had been purchased for this
purpose. The deed has been turned
over to Mrs. Ezra Simmons to hold the
property in trust for use as hospital.
No statement has been made as to the
amount of money paid for the property
and as it had been a private deal no
one has sought to look into the matter.
The original idea of a non-sectarian
hospital will be carried out and the
managers of the project have been for
tunate to secure the Franciscan Sisters
to take charge.
The Sisters were here yesterday and
looked the ground over and after hav-
ing interviews with many people in
the city in regard to the support of the
hospital they announced their willing
ness to take up the work. The plan
as proposed by the Sisters that the in
stitution shall be non-sectarian, has
the full approval of Archbishop Katzer
and the Sisters will come here next
week to take charge of the house which
is now being put in shape for them.
The families have been notified to va
cate the place and two have already
moved out. The Sisters who have
charge of ST. .Mary's hospital in Racine
think the building will make amode1
one.
Money has already been raised for
the purchase of equipments for the
various rooms and many people of the
city have signifed a Willingness to
assist in securing all other requisites.
In connection with the hospital plan
it is also planned to use a part of the
building for an old 1ady's home. This
plan is far advanced and may be open
ed before the hospital proper. Already
a number of old ladies have been found
who are willing and anxious to live in
such a home and pay a reasonable
amount for their keeping. It is also
planned to have a room at the hospital
to be used for a club room for working
girls. This will be great addition to
the life of the women of the city who
are compelled to work for their living.
This room will be fitted up as a reading
room and from time to time special
meetings will be held at which we'll
known speakers will be in attendance.
The last two plans will be supported
entirely by private gifts, but the hos
pita1 proper is supposed to be support
ed by the 1aboring people and the fac
tories. The factories are expected to
give one cent day for each man EN-
p1oyed, and in this manner the hospital
will have good income. The men of
the factories have signifed their will
1ingness to assist the movement in
that way.
It is a matter of great congratu1ation
to all the people of the city that the
hospital enterprise has finally been
brought to a successful termination. 1t
has always been one of the greatest
needs of Kenosha, and it is to be hoped
that it will have the hearty support of
every citizen in the city.

MRS. SARA M. CLAPP DEAD.
Well Known Kenosha Lady Died This
Afternoon at her Daughter Home.


Mrs. Sara M. C1app, widow of I. ].
C1app, and one of the best known
ladies in the city, died this afternoon
at the home of her daughter, Mrs. VIM
Cantwe11, on Park avenue.
The end was peaceful, but unexpect-
ed. For the past year Mrs. C1app has
been an invalid, but her illness had
been considered dangerously only for
the last few days. During the past
week she had been confined to her room
and today she was taken suddenly
worse. Her daughter hurried to her
bedside and remained with her until
death came shortly after noon.
The deceased was one of the best
known ladies in Kenosha and for many
years before her illness took an i'm
portant part in the social life of the
city. She was a New York lady by
birth, having been born at Pompey,
Jan. d, 1885. She was married to I. ].
C1app in 1865 and few years later
came with her husband to this city
For many years she spent part of the
year here and part of it in New York,
but for the past twenty years this city
has been her home.
The deceased was a woman of many
noble qualities. Educated and refined,
she gathered about her large circle of
friends who will find i'll her death a
personal loss. But one daughter, Mrs.
Florence C1app Cantwe11, survives and
she has the heartfelt sympathy of
many friends.

Doctors of the City Meet and Discuss the
Diseases of the Ear and Treatment.

The Kenosha County Medical Asso-
citation held it's regular monthly meet
ing Friday evening in the par1ors of
the Hotel Grant and the meeting was
one of the most interesting ever held
by the Association. Nearly all of the
members of the profession in the city
attended the meeting.
The literary part of the meeting con-
sisted in a highly entertaining paper
by DR.. Garfield on the subject, "The
Surgery of the Middle Ear Diseases
and the Mastoid Diseases" In the
hands of so notable a specialist in ear
diseases the paper of DR.. Garfield
proved of highly instructive nature
and opened many new fields hitherto
unknown to the profession. Follow
ing the reading of the paper the MEM
bers of the Association INDUCED in a
general discussion of the diseases of
the ear and their treatment.
The meeting was made even more
pleasant by the presence of a number
of the new physicians who have come
to the city in the past few months.
The Medical Association is becoming
of great value to the doctors of the city
and the regular monthly meetings are
looked forward to with great deal of
pleasure by the fraternity.

FLETCHER FLOYD
Block Will be Used by Innes&
Co. to Store Fire Stock.
W0RKMEN WILL BEGIN
On Repair Of Main Street
Building Today.

Walter Innes and W. ]. Weiser began
the work of moving their fire goods TO
the Fletcher-Floyd block last night and
today worknen viii begin 10 repair the
building. Practically the entire stock is
loss. Although the fire started in the sec
ond floor of the addition just completed,
it spread so rapidly and had such a start
before the fire department was notified
it ate to the front with streams playing
on it, and the part of the stock not burn
ed was so drenched with water that it is
ruined. 1t is possible, Mr.. lines thinks,
that some of the dress goods and silks
in cases were saved. but yesterday 1t
looked a total wreck. Water was drip
ping from the ceiling on all the hoorS
and in some places stood two inches deep
on the floor AL around were charred
remnants of yesterday mornings confa-
grafton. 1t was a desOlate spectacle OF q
once magnificent store and thousands of
explanations of regret were heard as
news of the fire spread or as visitors saw
the ruins. The work of the fire depart
ment was heroic At one time 1t looked.
as if the big store of Cash Henderson
would go. too, and when Mr.. Henderson
arrived on the ground he himself said
that he couldn't see any way his place
could be saved. The work Of the depart
ment surprised him. Yesterday ropes
were stretched about the front way and
policemen were stationed to keep away
intruders.
There is no explanation for the origin
of the fire except from electric wires.
There has been no fire in the building
this fall The insurance was about $4,000
as stated in yesterdays Eagle The loss
of Madame Willis the dressmaker. was
very heavy, and very little is covered by
insurance.
Chief Walden says the fire was the
most vicious and destructive he has en-
countered. doing the biggest damage in
the shortest time that he ever saw. 1t
was certainly the most disastrous fire
Wichita ever had.
The lines people established office head
quarters in the fire marshars Office in the
City building for temporary use. In a
short time stock of new goods will be
in the store. for the lines people have
gone to work at the pressure limit to re-
instate the store, which had become very
popular in the comparatively short time
it has been doing business in Wichita. :.
