AN OLD WILL FILED.
Will OF the Late Antony C. Hesing,
of Chicago, is Filed for Probate
in the County Court.
FUTURE OF LAKE AT STAKE

The Will Conveys Vast Body of Land in
the Town of Randall, About the Shores
of Powers Lake, and it is limited That
Some Move Will be Made to Put The En-
tire Tract On The Market-Holdings Of
the Estate Value at 500, 900.
A transcript of the will of Antony c.
Hesing, deceased, formerly one of the
best known residents of Chicago, has
been filed for probate in the county
court of Kenosha county. The filing
of the will for probate IN this county
has caused considerable comment
among real estate dealers as it is
thought that this action will be the
forerunner of large real estate deal
in lands located about Powers Lake,
in the town of Randall.
The will which was made IN 1894,
names Charles Pietsch and William
H. Lee, of Evanston, as executors of
the will and they are to hold the prop
erty in trust for the benefit of Wash
ington Hesing (now also deceased)
formerly postmaster of Chicago, and
editor of the Stats Zietung. The will
was filed for probate in Cook county,
Illinois, some FIVE years ago, but as
large amount of the property owned
by the estate is located in this county
it was found necessary to probate the
will here.
The Hesing estate, which has now
become the property of Mrs. Washing
ton Hesing, is one of the largest es-
tates in this county. 1t embraces all
of section Is of the town of Randall
and it is estimated to be worth at least
100000. It is located about the banks
of Powers Lake and large amounts of
it have been sold at big prices to Chi
cago parties for the uses of a summer
resort. For some months no effort has
been made to do anything with the
property, but since the will has been
brought here for probate the local real
big deal is pending. Should the prop
erty at Powers Lake, now held by the
estate pass into the hands of the right
persons, it is probable that a magrifi-
cent resort will be built up on the
shores of the little lake.
Nothing is known of the plans of the
executors of the estate until after the
will has been probated IL this county.
The officials of the court, when asked
in regard to the will, stated that it had
been filed i'll this county on account of
the fact that the executors desired to
obtain some money on the lands held
by the estate in this county.

Special Effort the Secure Funds.

It cannot too often be said, until the
good people of Kenosha not only
awaken, but are wide awake to the
fact that we need more than we need
any one other thing, Young Mems
Christian Association building. Only
those who have been in close touch
with the old building and its patronage
know how it has served as a rendez-
vous for young men who could resort
nowhere else without going into ques-
tionab1e places.
True, there are hundreds of young
men who had as soon be seen going IN
and coming out of these places as not;
they see no harm in the gaming table
or in 1ounging by the hour in resorts
where the conversation is as vile as the
atmosphere of the rooms frequented,
and where time is worse than wasted.
1t is an old saying that we cannot play
with pitch without some of it sticking.
But there are hundreds of other
young men who would, if they could at
small cost, join club and be assured
of pleasant par1ors, easy chairs, bright
and beautiful surroundings in rooms
lighted, heated and ventilated, place
where they could bring their friends
and enjoy a social evening, with
chance to indulge in games, including
an hour of hea1thfu1 exercise in well
equipped gymnasium or bowling alley,
and, when wearied, refresh themselves
with a luxurious bath before retiring
for rest.
We say there are hundreds of young
men in Kenosha, who, if they could
have such a place of resort, would
choose it rather than to resort at the
other sort. The proposed Z. M. c. A.
building will furnish all this and more.
Reading rooms, sleeping rooms, social
rooms, lecture rooms, etc ETC., will be
available for all young men who care
to keep themselves clean, physically
and morally.
Five dollars per year for member
ship admits one to the privilege of this
equipment. The end of the building
canvass has come. If we have this
outfit during 1900 it must be closed up
within the next ten days. Will it slip
through our fingers? The manage
ment tell us this is the last call. If we
care for the welfare of our fair city, let
us give the men who have this matter
in charge the encouragement that is
needed to carry the project to sue
cessfu1 close.

forming stripes, checks, vandykes, rich
tabliers, ETC., and many are arranged
with highly ornamented circular founces.
These same ideas are also seen in sheer
colUred dinities, where a design of some
sort, often "a tinted stripe, appears. Ma
terial for the bodice, also prepared with
lace in the proper form, accompanies the
skirt pattern.
The cut shows a charming gown of
mouse gray cloth. The skirt is laid in
stitched plaits at the top, the back form
ing a box plait. The lower part of the
skirt is ornamented with embroidered
applications and a silk fringe. The bod
ice, fitted at the back, is stretched in
front and ornamented with applications
and fringe, like the skirt. The yoke is OF
light gray panne, with high, straight
collar. The belt also is of panne, with an
ornamental buckle. The plain sleeves are
tight. The hat of gray felt is trimmed
with a fringed scarf of green velvet and
two green metal wings.

FOR A NEW CHURCH,
Milwaukee Presbytery Decides to Es-
tabIish a Presbyterian Church
In This City.
OF INTEREST TO HoLLANDERs

For Several Years the Little Society IN
This City Has Been Seeking Recognt-
tion From the Milwaukee PresbyterY
and They Have Finally Been Accepted
Little Known as to the Plons of the New
Congregation.
After many years of waiting Keno
sha is to have Presbyterian church
among the Ho11anders. This morning
one of the officials of the congregation
which has been organized in the city
for some time received word that the
Milwaukee Presbytery of the church
had decided to act favorably on their
petition and that the church would be
esta blished in this city as soon as pos
sib1e.
Little is known of the plans or mem
bership of the new congregation. For
some time number of the natives of
Holland living in this city have had
an organized society for worship and
several times they have petitioned the
Milwaukee Presbytery to permit them
to organize a church OF the Presbyter-
ian denomination.
At first the petition met with re-
fusa1 on account of the fact that it
was not thought that the society was
strong enough to become church.
But the little band of Kenosha Ho11an-
ders refused to take "no' for an ans
wer, and they returned to work and a
year later another petition was sent to
the Milwaukee officials but this was
denied on account of the fact that
some of the members of the proposed
church were still members of the Dutch
reformed church. All the bonds have
since been broken, and the Ho11anders
now rejoice that they will be able to
build a temple of their own.
Since the first petition was sent to
the Presbytery the congregation in
this city has kept the body together
and regular services have been held.
The congregation now has little over
hundred members, and it is probable
that immediate steps will be taken to-
ward building church.
Kenosha is indeed a city of churches,
and it seems strange that the city has
been SO long without a congregation
representing the great Presbyterian
church. All churches and denomina-
tons as well as all christian people,
will be glad to welcome the advent of
the new church.

An immense amount of embroidery is

lace are a feature of the seasons evening

gled black net composes some very ele-

Black skirts of satin, velvet, taffeta or
fancy woven silks are used for general
service with theater waists and velvet

The illustration given today shows a
gown OF sky blue peau de sole. The foot
of the skirt has seven small, fat ruff1es,
above which is a deep founce of guipure
de venise. The long princess tunic is cut
in vandykes, which are embroidered with
spanges, and the top of the tunic forms
a pointed corselet, similarly embroidered.
The chemisette is tucked horizontally and
has bolero of guipure de venise. The
sleeves are also tucked and have deep
cuffs of guipure. The collar is tucked and
finished by frill of lace.

But the Relief Was Perhaps Only
Temporary, After All.
A northern tourist met a negro econ
jurer," or "hoodoo," in Liberty county,
this state, recently. He expressed some
curiosity as to the charms" employed
by the cOnjurer in his work. The latter
led him to lonely cabin in the heart Of
the woods.
Arriving there, he saw a number Of
bones, presumably of animals, a human
skull, shelf of dusty bottles, contain
wooden box in which number of live
snakes were cooled.
He told the man he had the toothache
and wished to be 'conjured" out of it.
The conjurer set the skull in the mid
die of the earthen floor, placed light
ed candle on each side of it and then
took a blacksnake by the tail and
whirled it around his head, all the
while going in a circle around the skull
and muttering strange words in fune-
real tones.
But for the lighted candles all was
darkness inside.
Suddenly the snake slipped from his
hands and began to wriggle toward the
visitor. Two Of the other snakes got
out of the box and writhed over the
floor.
SIS it gone yit" asked the conjurer,
his eyes closed tightly. "Is it gone
yitY'
But he spoke to the unreplying dark
ness. Both the tourist and the tooth
ache were gone. They had jumped
through the window.-Atlanta Consti-

An Easy Way 10 Keep We'll.

1t is easy 10 keep well il We would only

health.
The all important thing is to Keep the

a capriciouS appetite and a feeling that
certain fayorite articles Of food must be

Prof Wiechold gives pretty good ad-
vice on this subject, he says: Il am sixty
eight years old and have never had a seri-

MY physician first advised me to use
them because he said they were perfectly
harmless and were not a secret patent
medicine, but contained only the natural
digestives. peptones and diastase, and after
using them a few weeks I have never
ceased to thank him for his advice.
Il boRestly believe the habit OF taking
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after meals is
the real health habit, because their use
brings health TO the sick and aiIing. and
preserves health to the well and strong.
Men and women past fifty years Of age
