eyes to sleep and she had been dead for
some time.
The deceased was 48 years of age
and was a daughter of William Os-
borne, a former we1l-known citizen of
Kenosha. She had removed to Mil

ASKS NO BONUS,
The Carter Manufacturing Company
the Latest Addition to Indus
trial Ken0sha.
TO MAKE WOODEN sPECIALTIEs
Company Have Leased Portion of the
Lippert Foundry and Machinery for a
Large Plant has Been Purchased

Without asking any bonus from the
city or seeking aid from any one, Re.
sha has another industry, as the Carter
Manufacturing company has come into
the industrial world of Kenosha. The
company is organized by t. L. Carter,
for many years foreman of the machine
room at the Kenosha Crib works, and
the company will engage IN the gen.
era1 manufacture of wooden special
ties. For the present the company
has leased the upper floor OF the
Lippert foundry and the hum OF
machinery is already heard in the
rooms used by the company. The ma
chinery for the plant has been pur-
chased in Chicago and Cincinnati and
will be placed in position within few
days.
MIR. Carter, who is directing the
destiuies of the new industry, was seen
this morning by a representative OF
this paper and when asked in regard to
his plans he stated that there was
little to be said at present. He said
that he would engage in the manu-
principal product being a little toy
cart for children, and a children's
yard. The cart has been placed upon
the market and has made an instan-
taneous hit 1t is different from any
other toy of the kind now on the
market and is made SO that it can be
sold at a very low price. Mr. Carter
stated that he had already been able to
place large order for the carts to be
used as advertising novelties by large
baking powder company.
In speaking of the number of men to
be employed at the factory Mr.. Carter
said that as soon as the machinery was
in position he would offer employment
for twenty-five men and that within
year he hoped to be able to double this
number. A number of men have al
ready been put to work to make pat
terms for the toys to be manufactured
for the holiday season.
Mr.. Carter is we'll known among the
factory men of Kenosha and his long
experience with the Crib company in
sures the success of his new ven
ture. The new factory will start into
operation with the best wishes of all
the manufacturers of Kenosha and the
success Of the venture will be a cause
of congratu1ation to the whole city.
Mr.. Carter is a Henosha boy and the
people of the city will be glad to know
that he has launched out into business
for himself.

Mrs. Brown was married in October,
1853, to Henry T. Brown, and at once
went to live on the farm where she has
ever since resided, she having never
been absent,more than few weeks at
a time from the old home where she
and her husband in the fu11ness of
their young health and strength start
ed on 1ife's pathway together.
There werei four children born to
them-two sons and two daughters.
Harry, the oldest, lives in Sioux City,
Iowa; Eliza is Approaching physician

Chicago, and Ira lives on the old farm
where this happy family spent so many
pleasant days together. All are mar
ried and have homes of their own. The

ELOPE BY TROLLEY.
Lake Bluff Couple Succeed In Eluding
Stern Parents.

The e1opement of Miss Grace Parish
of Chicago, and Arthur D. Shoope, of
Columbus, Ohio, from Lake Bluff We'd
nesday night proved a success, after
all. Their first attempt, when they
went to Chicago and were caught by
the brides father, was followed by a
later one. They took the trolley to
Waukegan and, finding a friend, Sc
cured a license and were married by
the Rev. w. E. Toll. The matter was
kept quiet until yesterday.
Shoope is a college student. But a
short time ago he met Grace Parish
and proceeded to fall mad1y in love
with her. She reciprocated. Since the
parents of the girl viewed the affair
with disapproval, they met c1andestine'
1y. Then they decided to e1ope. The
flight of the couple Wednesday night
was learned of by Mrs. Parish, how.
ever, and she'at once te1ephoned he1
husband in the city to be on the look
out. Mr.. Parish arrived at the depot
In time. and as the radiant pair stepped
ioyous1y from the train to face the
world together, their progress was
blocked by the stern father, who held
two return tickets in his hand. Crest
fallen and with their roseate pictures
of welded life faded into thin air, the
Youthful lovers returned to Lake Bluff.
The excitement of the matter affe cted
Mrs. Parish to the point of illaess, but
this did not interfere with the plans of
the young couple. Their present where
abouts is unknown.
Miss Parish is well known in Keno
sha and her friends will be pleased to
extend congratulations.

ELECT OFFICERS FOR A YEAR.
Modern Woodmen's Association Take a
Decided stand in Regard to Speakers

Modern woodmens Association Take a
Decided stand in Regard to Speakers.

day the members of the association
got together and held the annual
business meeting of the association
and elected the following officers for
the coming year:
Edw. E. Mills, President, Bur1ing-
ton.
w. L. Hack1ey, President, Ke-
nosha.
DR.. J. Ridg1y, Secretary, Racine.
F. H. Sherman, Treasurer, Wi1mot.
The association was anything but
pleased with the management of the
picnic in this city and resolution was
passed by a unanimous vote that when
the association shall hold picnics in
the future it is to be understood that
no one man power will prevail but
that the speakers for the affair shall
be selected by the Central Woodmen's
committee. The men are members of
the picnic association are careful to
state that the picnic yesterday was not
in any way under the direction of the
Central committee of the order and
that it was simply a local reunion. 1t
was not decided at the meeting yester
day where the next picnic of the
the association will be held but it is
probable that Burlington will be
selected later as the place for holding

FLOOR FELL.
strange Accident at the MALT House, but
No One was Injured.

Strange AcclQenG at Lne "ia1I douSS, UuG
No One was Injured
One of the strangest accidents that
ever happened in Kenosha occurred
early Wednesday morning, when, with
out warning, the floor in third story OF
the M. H. Petit malt house fell to the
floor below. 1t was most miraculous
that the floor did not collapse at some
time when the men were at work IN the
building, but, falling as it did in the
early morning, no one was in the way
and the employees all escaped. The
floor had not been thought to be in
any danger of breaking, but one of the
large timbers broke in the middle and
the whole was at once precipitated to
the floor below.
The company had already 40ade some
arrangements for repairing the floor
and the work of repair will be started
at once. Mr. Mailer was seen this
morning and stated that the damage
resulting from the accident would not
amount to more than SIS, but it was
most fortunate that none of the en-
p1oyes were injured by the falling Of
the floor.

BRINGS A BIG SUIT.
MRS. Catherine c. Fox, of Milwaukee. De-
mands Accounting on Old Land Contract

Mrs. Catherine c. Fox, through her
attorneys, ]. c. Slater, of this city,
and O'Connor, Hame1 & Schmitz, of
Milwaukee, has brought suit in the
Circuit Court of this county to collect
So, 3O5.83, which she is claiming is due
to her on a land contract made with
w. J. Craney of this city in 1888. Hat
tie e. Fox and William and Melissa
Upton are also named as defendants
in the suit. The suit is the outgrowth
of a land contract made by Mrs. Fox
and Mr.. Craney in 1888. Mrs. Fox
was the owner of large plat of land
in the town of Somers which she
agreed to sell to Craney on land con-
tract for the sum of $4,000. Only a
part of the payments on the contract
were made and according to the COM
plant no payments have been made
since 1898 and the amount due is SO, 800
and the interest of that amount from
that year.
Since the original contract was
made the land has changed hands sew
era1 times and now eighty acres of the
lana concerned IN the uSHl 10 lIiC PAOP
erty of William Upton, while Hattie
E. Fox also has an interest in another
part. For some time the people in the
suit have tried to reach an agreement,
but on account of the large amount of
money involved no settlement was
ever reached and long legal fight is
expected. The case will come up for
trial at the September term of the Cir
cult Court.

ANOTHER OLD SETTLER GONE.
MRS wealthy Ann Burt Passed AWAY Yes
tsrday at Her Home in Bristol.

teTCaY At HeC HOu6 IL 6T1SbO1.
There was another vacancy made in
the ranks Of the old settlers of this
county Friday noon, when death
claimed Mrs. Wealthy Ann Burt, widow
Of the late Marshfeld D. Burt, one Of
the best known pioneer settlers of the
town of Bristol.
The deceased had been failing in
health for some time, and as she was
well along IN her eighty-third year the
in6rmities Of old age were largely the
cause of her death.
Mrs. Burt was closely connected with
the early history ofth town of Bristol.
AS Wealthy A. Davis she was born in
Wilbraham, Mass, January II, 1918.
AT the age of twenty-five years she was
united in marriage to Mr.. Burt, and in
1852 she came with him to the great
west to bear the burdens of a pioneer.
When Mr.. and Mrs. Burt came to Bris-
toll the town was still forest, and the
two coming from the far aeast were
among the very first settlers. Mrs.
Burt had made her home in Bristol
ever since and in the long years of her
residence there she made many friends
who will greatly regret her death.
The funeral was be held from the
Methodist church at Bristol, of which
the deceased had been member for
many years. The services took
place Sunday afternoon at O'Clock.
