MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS.
Matters of interest to be Settled at
Next Council Meeting.

Upon the return of Councilmen
Bell and Davenport special
session Of the municipal legisla-
ture will be called by Mayor Shee-
han for the transaction Of import
ant business.
Some provision will be made
for the cleaning Of the business
streets and the removal Of the
hitching posts along Wilson street.
The latter are a nuisance as farm
ers tie their teams there and block
the street.
The question Of the renewal Of
the water works franchise will also
come up for action.
A city assessor to serve during
the coming year will be appointed,
Although Mayor Sheehan will not
divulge the identity of the man he
intends to name it is considered
almost certain that Robert l
Blakeney will be reappointed.

KENOSHA LADIES WIN
Fair Players From the Kenosha Club
Spring a Surprise in the Con-
test at Exmo0r Links.
MISS LANCE IN FIRST SET
While Miss Kellogg and Mrs. simmor
Qualify in the Fight for the Mem
bers Cup.

The men of,the Kenoshd Country club
are not to have all the honor this sea-
son, for after two years of inactivity the
fair members of the club have been
aroused to action, and yesterday the
three ladies who went to the Exmoor
links for the purpose of taking part IN
the annual Ladies tournament, made
an excellent record and showed the
ladies that the Kenosha women were
in line for the National Ladies Golf
championship. The three who repre-
sented Kenosha were Mrs. Simmons,
Miss Alice Lance and Miss Kellogg,
and ali of them managed to make
scores which qualified for one of the
two cups offered at the tournament.
Miss Lance was among the leaders
in the fight and she played in excel
lent form in the qualifying round and
was one of the first FIVE who qualified
for the Exmoor cup, which is the most
valuable trophy offered for compet1-
ton among the women golfers OF the
West. In the contest were many of
the best known women golfers, and
the preliminary round proved that the
women were playing very fast golf
Miss Kellogg, of the Kenosha club,
was tied for last place in the. contest
for the first cup and lost the match,
thus placing her at the head of the
PLAYERS for the Members cup. Mrs.
Simmons was third in the race for the
second cup.
The links were in excellent condi-
ton, and while the ladies from Ken
osha suffered from the fact that this is
the first match in which, they sought
honors, they can be counted on to
show up much better in the other
matches which will be played today
and tomorrow. The scores of the Ken
osha players qualifying were:

STOPPED A RUNAWAY.
Three Kenosha Girls Make a Daring Cap
ture of Runaway Team.

LQEG u d huAdW dy 4Cduus
Misses Eva Rice, Julia Don1ey and
K1ttie O'Donne11 are deserving of a
great deal of praise for the presence
of mind showed by the trio on Wednes-
day afternoon when they stopped a
team of horses which was running
away on Main street. The young Ia
dies were walking along Main street,
near the First National Bank, when a
team of horses came tearing down the
street. The horses had broken loose
on the north side and were dashing
down Main street at a terrific pace.
When the young ladies saw the horses
coming Miss Rice took the initiative
and rushed out into the street to stop
them. She made a grab for the bride
of one of the horses and succeeded in
catching it. The other young ladies
came to the rescue and with the COM
bined aid of the young ladies the
horses were finally stopped. None of
the ladies were injured in the perform
ance of this heroic deed, but Miss Rice
had her hand slightly injured.
The action of the young ladies was
very heroic one, but the boys who
witnessed the incident stated that
when the horses saw such a dainty
bunch of fen1ininity in front of
them they simply winked their other
eye and stopped.

A Human Paradox.

Paul Deroulede, the French politi-
clan, is a mass of apparent contradic-
tons. He is an agnostic who contrib
utes generously to the church chart
ties, a republican who desires to over
throw the republic, a peace advocate
who favors riot and instruction, a
free trader who upholds prohibitory
tariff, and a democrat who even aids
the royalist party of France. His
contrariety is we'll Illustrated by a re-
cent story. He was discussing the
Boer war with a number of friends,
and after a fierce diatribe against
England said very earnes sly:
Il pray that the British will be IN
mercifully beaten"
why, I thought you disliked the
Dutch" interrupted a friend.
Dislike them? / pray that they
will be exterminated, be declared.

THE STATE FAIR.
Larse crowds Expected to be Present at
the Annual Exposition.

The railroad officials IN Milwaukee
predict the greatest crowd that ever
assembled to witness Wisconsin state
fair will gather there during the week
of Sept. 10TH The information from
agents along the lines of the several
roads indicate that the rolling stock of
the companies leading into the Cream
city will be overtaxed. Preparations
are already. under way to run special
trains from points along the Fox river
valley and also on the La Crosse di-
vision of the..,St. Paul railroad. An
immense outpour is also expected from
the towns of northwestern Wisconsin
along the lines of the Milwaukee road
and Northwestern road. The Wiscon-
sin Central will run their trains IN sec
tons, and on Military day will run
several special trains.
Several days previous to the time
the one fare rate goes into effect long
trains of coaches will be sidetracked at
convenient points in the state, from
whichsthey can be drawn to accommo-
date the immense travel expected.
So far as transportation to the
grounds in milwaukee, is concerned,
the Milwaukee. Electric Light & Rail
way Company'swi11 run cars from all
their principal city lines direct to the
fair grounds, andsexcursion trains will
be run from the Union depot to the
north gate by the Milwaukee road, and
from thes Northwestern depot to the
westsgate.
Facilities for -hand1ing the crowds
are almost perfectedAb the three roads
centering backgrounds, and it is an
nounced that even though the crowds
reach $4,000 daily, there.wi1l be ample
accommodation affordedsby the trans
portation lines. There never was such
broadcast interest shown in any fair
held in kWisconsinssas in the 1900
exposition.

PROF. G. L. NEWBRRRY RESIGNS
Kenosna Teacher is Elected Supervising
Principal of Schools at civ MINI.

Prof. c. L. Newberry, one of the as
sistants of the Kenosha high school,
rendered his resignation to Principal
Wiswa11 Wednesday evening and will
retire at once from his work with the
Kenosha schools. He leaves this after
noon for Ely, Minnesota, at which
point Mr.. Newberry has been elected
to the position of supervising princi-
pal of the schools of that city. The
election came as a great surprise tc
the Kenosha teacher, but the opening
is such a splendid one and offers such
chances for advancement that he has
decided to accept the offer.
Mr. Newberry has been connected
with the Kenosha schools for the past
four years and he is regarded as one Of
the best teachers ever entered on the
pay roll. He came to Kenosha from
Marietta college in Ohio, where he
won honors at his graduation. When
he came to Kenosha he was employed
as a teacher in the grades, but his work
was of such an excellent quality that
he was soon advanced to the position
of principal and later he became one of
the assistants in the high school. Dur
ing his work in Kenosha Mr.. New
berry has been very popular both with
the pupils and with his fellow in
structors. He has taken a great inter
est in his work and has always been
one of the leaders in all affairs tending
to promote educational advancement.
While the people of Kenosha will be
sorry to know that he has severed his
connection with the schools of the
city, the best wishes of all will accom-
pany him to his new field of labor.
