terday Was Very Exciting enc.
The Kenosha Golf team lost their
one hope of winning a state champion
ship yesterday afternoon when they
were defeated at .Oconomowoc by the
sturdy team of golfers from GAINESVILLE
by a score of a down. 1t was the de-
Gliding game in the tournament be-
tween the two teams. Each had won
a game during the season, and it had
been decided to play the deciding game
at Oconornowoc. Everything seemed
to assist in bringing about the defeat
of the Kenosha team. The GAINESVILLE
team reached the links early in the
morning and when the Kenosha team
arrived a few minutes before the con-
test started their opponents had be-
come familiar with all the pecu1iarities
of the links and were ready to win
from the Kenosha team by high
margin. The game started at 3 o'clock
and large number of the golfers from
Ocomomowoc turned out to see the
deciding contest between the two
teams At the end Of the first round of
the eighteen holes the two teams were
even up, but it was noticeable that the
Kenosha team were not playing the
game that was to- be expected of them.
Allen, Ripley and G. A. Yule, a trio of
Kenosha's best players, were all out of
condition and played very ragged
game. In the second round the con-
tests were exceedingly close but all the

frenzy that has overtaken SO many of
our citizens. There is probably little
doubt that there are impurities in the
lake water, but it is note worthy fact
that those physicians who most rigor-
ous1y condemn it declare that the sick
ness that has caused the complaint is
not due to the water but to far differ
ent causes. In addition, there are sew
era1 very good authorities who insist
that the lake water is perfectly health
full. While these are the facts, though
we would not for minute discourage
any sanitary measures that might i'm
prove the present system, we believe
that there is no great danger in it.

SHOT At SUNRISE,
Private James {. Hayes Supposed to

posed to have been the fate of James
E. Hayes, a resident of this city, who
was a private in Company H, of the
22nd Infantry, U. S. A., now stationed
IN the Philippine Islands.
No confirmation of the report has
been received in this city, beyond a
little squib in the kilograms from Ma
Mia which reads, "James E. Hayes,
private 22nd Infantry, shot as a desert

was received by the war department

The last letter from Hayes discovered
in this city was received the early part
of July, and at that time he was with
the 22nd in the interior of the Islands
fighting with the insurgents. Since
that time, it is reported, another letter
has been received from Hayes, stating
that he intended to leave the army.
According to story, Hayes had fallen
in love with one of the women of she
Islands and had married her. A short
time later he left the army, and went
to the home of his bride. This is the
last heard of him until the paragraphs

SENATOR RENE BERENGER, of Paris,
France, is worked up by the fear that
the Paris Exposition may serve 20 ex-
pose something strictly Partisan that
may shock the rest of the world and
cause unfavorab1e comment on the
part of the press of other nations.
Some way or other the rest of the
world never expects much of Paris in
the way of morality. After the
achievements of the Chicago exposi-
ton, however, showing the POSSIBLE
ties of such show IN the way of vice
and nastiness, the Parisians will have
to rival Sodom and Gomorrah if they
produce anything that will surpass
what the rest of the world naturally
expect of them on that momentous
occasion.

appeared stating that James Hayes
had been shot as deserter.
Hayes has led a checkered career.
He was a soldier by nature, and while
yet young in years he had seen great
deal of service in the regular army.
He first came to Kenosha about seven
years ago, having been honorably dis
charged from his regiment which at
the time was stationed at IT. Sheridan.
He was ''ha1e fellow well met" and
soon secured employment and gath
cred around him a large circle of
friends. A few years later his old
love for the army returned, and he left
Kenosha and again returned to post
in the far West. Life as a soldier be-
came monotonous to him, and after
serving three years he again came to
Kenosha, and was employed as stage
carpenter at the Rhode opera house.
When the war broke out with Spain
Hayes burned with excitement, and
1onged to get back to the ranks. One
night he heard that his old regiment
was going to leave for the Philippines,
and on the following day he disap-
peared from the city, taking with him
only the old suit of army blue. A few
days later when the regiment en-
barked at San Francisco, James E..
Hayes was among the privates.
His record in war had always been
an honorable one, and he was always
restless except when he was marching
with the boys beneath the stars and
stripes.
The friends of Hayes in this city
hope that the report of his tragic death
may prove false, and that 1t was some
other James Hayes who suffered the
fate of deserter.

Seven Governors and a Fizzle.

The conference of Governors on
trusts in this city proves to be a com.
p1ete failure. 1t was grossly partisan
from the start and plainly contrived as
a Democratic trap. In the first place
only seven Governors were present.
The thirty-eight Governors who were
absent have reason to congratulate
themselves. This meeting seems to
have been originally planned to make
Democratic capital, but the scheme
miscarried and dwind1ed into insig-
nifcance. What the conference said
or did is of little consequence. It was
deceptive as far as it pretended to be
an impartial consideration of any
thing. On taking the chair Gov.
Savers, of Texas, declared that the
present tariff and currency systems
are the underlying causes of trusts.
His cure for them is free trade and
free silver. How he reconci1ed this
with his previous statement that
4'trusts are not party question: - is
mystery too deep for any one who
heard him. If he had added that the
only remedy for trusts is to elect
Bryan no one would have been sur
prised.
Gov. Stephens distinguished himself
by reading an address that was equally
astonishing for it's arguments and it's
rhetoric "Sapient sons of sainted
ssires,'' he exclaimed, "the eyes of your
country are upon you today. Fellow
tcountrymen, within twelve short
moons the pha1anxes viii be drawn up
in battle array. Choose today the BAN
ner under whichssyou will fight" The
Governors idea of a paper analyzing
trusts is a sloppy Democratic stump
speech. He g1oried in the fines in
ficted on insurance companies ''who
pleaded on Bonded knee to be allowed
to pay and remain in the State" But
he failed to touch on the ST. Louis
street railway consolidation, which
could not have come into existence but
for his signature. That this meeting
was an exhibition of a plentiful lack of
knowledge is bad enough. But the
worst feature is the dup1icity in calling
"a conference of Governors and then
preparing to de1uge them with Demo
cratic s1ush. But the Governors didn't
come. The proceedings yesterday
with the exception Of Gov. Shaw's ad-
nirab1e address, do not deserve any
serious notice. st. Louis Globe-Dem-

luck was in favor of the opponents of
the home team, and when the last man
was in it was seen that the Kenosha
team was four holes short. Several of
the matches were very exciting, but in
every case where matches were close
the GAINESVILLE man won. Eiche1man
carried off the honors for the Kenosha
team by defeating his opponent,
Echlin, by a score of s up. Among
the GAINESVILLE team A. Smaller was the
particular star, and his defeat of
Champion Allen by a score of z Il
was one of the greatest surprises of
the day, Allen, however, played a
fine game and was defeated at nearly
all the holes lost to Schaller by
single stroke.

SIX NEW CASES.
Health oficer C1eary Issues Instructions
in Regard TO Typhoid Fever.

From all reports it seems that there
has been no diminishing in the num-
Der of cases of typhoid fever IN the
city. Six new cases were reported to-
day and many others are said to be IN
the hands of the doctors. DR.. Cleary
reports that some cases have not been
reported on account of the fact that
some of the doctors hold that the dis
ease is not typhoid, but malar1al fever.
In regard to the spread and prevention
of the disease the following from the
recommendations of the State Board
of Health is published at the request of
the Health officer:
"When a case of typhoid fever oc-
ours, the attending physician or house
holder should at once report the case to
the local Board of Health, and it is the
duty of that board to investigate, as
far as possible, and remove the cause
of the disease, and take all necessary
sanitary measures to prevent its
spread, and report the case at once to
the State Board of Health. The water,
milk and ice supply should be exam
ined. The contents of all privies on
the premises should be removed, or
thoroughly disinfected, (which, per-
haps, can best be done by adding
about four ounces of the best quality
of chloride of lime to each gallon OF
material involved, and all wood work
about the vault should be washed
down with a solution of corrosive sub
Innate at the strength of to 5OO.) AL
unsanitary conditions about the prem
Uses should receive early and promp1
attention, such as removing piles Of
rubbish, garbage, ETC., and disinfect
ing the ground where they exist by
solution of the chloride of lime, fou1
ounces to the gallon of water; and II
cities the plumbing of the house shoule
be carefully inspected, and all defects
repaired; also the cellars of houses
should be thoroughly c1eansed anC
: subjected to as much sunlight an'
l pure air as possible"

The City Water

JUST at this time each year in this
city occurs the periodic outcry
against the city water supply. 1t is
regularly urged that the lake water IS
unhea1thfu1 and that the city for SAM
tarv reasons should do something to
remedy the evil. At present there are
several cases of sickness, somewhat re-
semb1ing typhoid fever, which are I'M
mediate1v set down as the result of the
impure lake water, and, as a conse-
quence, there goes up at once a demand
that the city take some remedial
action.
Among the remedies suggested by
the people is that of drilling more ar
tesian wells and extending the ar
tesian system. The impracticability
of this plan is admitted by the bulk OF
the authorities who understand the
situation. Supposing that the artes1an
water is better than that from the
lake and that there is a greater de-
mand for it, it will be found on in
vestigation that the supply of artesian
water is necessarily limited. With the
wells that are now in existence it is
sometimes impossible to force the
water up to consumers on the second
floor. Should more wells be drilled
this trouble with insufficient force
would be augmented. Furthermore,
owing to the chemical qualities of the
water, it is probably impossible to tlno
pipes for the mains which will resist
accommodations and combinations thai
poison the water.
It has also been suggested that the
intake pipe be taken farther out int
the lake This would require an en-
ormous outlay of money and Nigh
not answer the purpose. It is general
1y conceded that the intake is nov
at such point that it cannot be IL
fected from any outlet from this city
If impurities creep into the city suppl
of water they either belong to tn
water or are brought from points mort
of us, and to get out beyond thei
reach would be far beyond the fnar
cia1 capacity of a town of this size.
If the situation is such as to denan
attention at once, the only remed
seems to lay in a filtering system. Bt
the expense Of this would be very 1arg
and in the present condition of tt
city treasury would require a direc
tax on the consumers for that specif
purpose. The question is, then, is
necessary. If health is impaired (
life endangered by the present cond
ton of affairs, something should
done at once. But the fact seems
be that in reality there seems to
comparatively little ground for Il
