Mcolure's Magazine for July.

The July number of McC1ure's Mag
aziue contains several notable feat
ures; among them, a story by Rud-
yard Kipling, articles on w. ]. Bryan,
on Railways in China, and on our
diplomatic relations with Great
Britain.
"The Outsider" by Rudyard Kip
ling, is the tale of young British
suba1tern detailed to the command of a
remote military station, where he
makes himself ridiculous by his AFRO
gance and stupidity. This strong
story introduces us once more to the
immortal Tommy Atkins; and it is one
of the most amusing tales Kipling
ever wrote.
Mr. William Allen Whites political
portrait" Of William Jennings Bryan
will attract particular attention
Without defending Mr.. Bryan's cause,
the article presents most attractive
picture of his personality. He also
suggests what would happen if Bryan
should be elected President.
A. Maurice Low, the American cor
respondent of the London Chronicle,
writes in this issue of the cordial
understanding which exists between
the two great Ang1o-Saxon powers at
the present day. Many of the acts
presented have never before been made
public.
Railway Development in China"
by Vim. Barclay Parsons, chief engin-
eer of the American-China Develop
ment Company, is of especial interest
at this time because of the light thrown
on the rivalry of the European powers
and on the political as opposed to the
purely commercial aspects of China's
railway development.
In addition to these special features,
there are number of excellent stories
in this issue. Bret Harte, in ga Jack
and Jill Of the Sierras,' tells of an
episode in a California mining camp
the motive of which is evidently in
spired by the old nursery rhyme. The
story possesses a romantic g1amor like
that which Mr.. Harte has thrown over
the rest of his marvellous stories of
rough Western life.
The issue also contains a true story
of THE Fall Of Quebec by Cyrus
Townsend Brady, the seventh install
ment of "The Life of the Master" by
Ian Mac1aren, and an abundance OF
light fiction suited to summer num-

GOES TO WEST POINT.
Senator j. v. QuarIes Appointed Roy
HoIderness, of this City to
Cadetship.
PASSED BEST EXAMINATION.
Appointment of the Kenosha Boy Received
With a Great Deal of Joy.-Will Leave
for West Point in Two Weeks.

Roy Ho1derness, son of Thomas
Ho1derness, will enter the United
States army, for Thursday afternoon
Senator Quarles announced that he
had appointed the Kenosha boy to a
cadetship at West Point. The honor
comes as a result of merit and not as a
result of any political Vaccinations.
A short time ago Roy Ho1derness and
the other candidates for the cadetship
took the examination for the position
before DR.. ]. H. Pratt, of Milwaukee,
and the Kenosha man stood far above
any of the other competitors for the
honor.
The alternate appointed for Holder
ness, in the event that he fails to make
the entrance examinations at West
Point, is Calvin Stednan, of Berlin,
Wis.
Ho1derness and his alternate will
leave for West Point in about two
weeks and will report for the entrance
examination July 18th.
The appointment of Senator Quar1es
which is in reality a recommendation
W l41C Wal OC pd1 IL4Cul, was IudOC
under the recent act of congress, in
creasing the size of the battalion of
cadets at West Point
When the announcement of the APP
pointment was made known in this
city last night the young people were
wild with joy. The new1y-appointed
cadet is great favorite among them,
and all seemed as glad as if the ap-
pointment had been given to them
personally.
Ho1derness is typical Kenosha boy
with lots of push and energy. He has
been closely connected with the High
school and the doings of the younger
boys during the last few years, and all
his friends will expect him to give a
good account of himself at the military
academy.
There is little doubt but that Ho1-
derness will pass the examination
with ease, as he was considered one of
the brightest boys in the Senior class
of the high school.
This is the first time Kenosha has
had man at West Point in many
years, but David The1een has repre-
scented the city in a royal manner at
the naval academy at Annapolis.

MINUTE SERVICE.
Reduced Telephone Rates to Lines in the
Southern Part of the state.

Taking effect July l, the Wisconsin
Telephone company announces an ex-
tension of the minute service" to all
points in southern Wisconsin. By
this announcement, the rates from
Milwaukee to ali points in the state,
except the extreme northern and north
western portions, are greatly reduced.
This service, which is based on con-
versations of one minute or less, was
inaugurated on April to all points in
central and eastern Wisconsin. The
company's officials had found that,
with the Improvement in the service
and the greater familiarity with the
use of the telephone, a large proper
ton of the business communications
could be completed within one minute,
so that under the new arrangement
the "short time" patron is benefited
by paying only for his actual use of
the line.
''The increased demand for our IA
ci1ities," said General Manager Nc
Leod, has necessitated very extensive
additions to our 1ong-distance plant,
built represent an amount of material
and labor which is enormous, over
100000 pounds of copper wire alone
being used. Along the lake shore
from Milwaukee to Sheboygan, Mani
towoC and A1goma, we have more than
doubled our facilities. From Mi1wau-
kee to Appleton we have added eight
l.,
three.
"From Milwaukee west to Water
town and Madison we have built six
new circuits, and additional wires
have been strung between Milwaukee
and GAINESVILLE, GAINESVILLE and Madi-
son, Racine and Kenosha, GAINESVILLE
and Monroe, and from Monroe to
Plattevi11e, Mineral Point and OAR
1ington. New circuits are being added
to the other routes as fast as possible,
and as soon as our facilities will al
low, we expect to introduce the minute
service over the entire state.''
The new rates, which went into eff
feet Sundaysmorning, apply on bust
ness from Milwaukee to all of the
southern points, including Racine, Ke-
nosha, GAINESVILLE, Be1oit, Monroe,
Jefferson, Plattevil1e, Boscobe1 and in
termediate stations. The new rates,
which were made on an airline basis,
have in nearly all cases reduced the
cost of a three-ninute talk.
To points bless than thirty miles
distant, minute rates are not quoted,
but the readjustment on the airline
basis has in nearly all cases reduced
the three-ninute rates, in some cases
the cut amounting to between 40 and
so per cent.

DEATH AND MARRIAGE.
Peculiar Race for supremacy in the Office
of the Register of Deeds.

Peculiar Race for supremacy in the office
of the Register of Deeds.
There is one peculiar thing in the
annals of the County Register, and
that is the race between death and
marriage. The records show that
during the first six months of the year
there were 12O deaths and an equal
number of marriages. There were 269
births, so it will be seen that the popu-
1ation of the city has increased at least
149 in the half year.
OF course the marriages for this six
months can not be compared with the
first half of 1899, as at that time the
True Marriage law had not as yet gone
into effect, and the record for the same
time last year shows a total of go
marriages, while the first six months
of 1898 showed that 301 couples had
entered the married state in Kenosha.
From the figures it will be seen the
havoc that has been wrought by the
passage of the True measure. While a
few Chicago couples still return to ro-
mantle Kenosha to wed, and while the
record shows that many rush licenses
have been issued, the glory of Kenosha
as a marriage center has vanished and
other less worthy towns like ST. Joe
and Grand Haven have stepped into
this place.

A YEAR IN GREEN BAY.
Arthur Delaney Tells Judge slosson of a
Conspiracy to Rob Louis Sandberg

Arthur Delaney, who was arrested a
few days ago on a charge of robbing
the home of Louis Sandberg, in the
town Of Silver Lake, plead guilty to
the charge of larceny before Judge
S1osson today and was sentenced to a
years penal servitude in the reforma-
tory at Green Bay.
In connection with his plea of guilty
Delaney told an interesting story in
regard to a conspiracy to rob the home
of Sandberg. He said that he came to
Silver Lake the day before the robbery
and while at an ice house near the
village, he met with two men who
urged him to join them i robbing the
house. Delaney seemed to have been
a willing victim and it fell to his lot to
break into the house. After his arrest
the fellows who had urged him to com
nit the crime, had left the country.
He gave the name of one of the men as
Frank Doodle, and for this reason the
officials fear that the story is trump
ed up one.
It is barely possible, however, that
the arrest and sentence of young De-
1aney will give the officials some clue
whereby the will be able to break up
the gang of robbers which has been
working in the county for long time.

Died July Third, 1900.
Anna Kellogg Hawley.

Death is especially unWelCOme when
with cruel shock it's sudden summons
comes for one of our choicest earthly
friends. A life in which were blended
rare attainments of mind and heart, a
personality rich in graces, gentle in
spirit and unse1fsh in service, seems
rather to have been needed for all the
allotted years than to have been pre-
maturely stricken by an icy touch.
AS yesterday we journeyed to the
tomb and babe farewell to our cher
ished friend, it was easy to say that
earth is poorer and heaven richer for
her departure, but IN that sentiment
there was 1jtt1e consolation.
Only upon reflection that torturing
pain had been exchanged for peaceful
rest-that life of devotion and of un-
fa1tering fidelity had left ennobling
influences which must long abide
that her home retained a legacy of
kind deeds and loving words far more
precious than cost1iest gems-cou1d
there come a feeling OF reconciliation.
Feeling thus, it was easier to staud
by the open grave, while the loved one
seen.ed to fold about her a rich drapery
of flowers, and then gently and loving
ly to steal away, to be sweetly remern-
bered for what she had done.
And then to bitter grief and broken
heart there came whisper as of an
angel visitor, bidding hope revive and
faith strengthen, for reunited life and
love shall soon appear.
None could turn away without feel
ing that home and friends and church
and whole community had lost choice
spirit. None who would not gladly
have stayed her going, even upon that
voyage whose heaven is eternal peace.
But though
"From out our bounds of Time and Place
The food has borne her far,
We know She saw her Pilot face to face,
When she had crossed the bar

For an Editor to Recommend Patent
Medicines
From Sylvan Valley News, Brevrad, N. G.
1t may be a question whether the ed
itor of a newspaper has the right to
publicly recommend any of the various
proprietary medicines which food the
market, yet as a preventive Of suffer
ing we feel it duty to say a good
word for Chamberlain Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy. We have
known and used this medicine in our
family for twenty years and have al
ways found it reliable. In many cases
a dose of this remedy would save hours
of suffering while a physician is
awaited. We do not believe IN de-
pending implicitly on any medicine
for cure, but we do believe that if
bottle of Chamberlain Diarrhoea
Remedy were kept on hand and adj
ministered at the inception Of an at
tack much suffering might be avoided
and in very many cases the presence OF
q physician would not be required. At
least this has been our experience dur
ing the past twenty years. For sale

AFTER THE MILKMEN.
State Dairy and Food Inspector Sweet
Issues Warrants for Kenosha Men.


Sheriff Henry Timme left the city
early this morning armed with war
rants for the arrest of w. Pignes and
P. Thorn, two farmers residing in the
town of Paris, who are charged with
the violation of the state pure food law
by selling SKINNED milk. For some
time the eyes of the State Dairy and
Food Inspector G. v. Sweet, has been
turned this way and last evening he
dropped into Kenosha long enough to
swear out warrant for the arrest of
the men.
The complaint against the two men
is made by the proprietors of a cream
cry at Paris, which alleges that the
men have been selling SKINNED milk,
the particular offense in question hav-
ing been committed on June 23rd.
The men will be brought before Justice
McCarron this evening, and the state
stands ready to prosecute the cases if
they refuse to plead guilty to the
offense.
In connection with the arrests it is
reported that the milk sold by several
other Kenosha county dealers is under
suspicion, and more arrests may be
expected in the near future. At the
last time the milk sold in this city was
tested all the products passed sp1en-
did test with one exception, but since
that time it is claimed that the dealers
have become careless, and some of the
milk offered for sale is not in any way
up to the standard demanded by the
state law.

WHITEHEAD is OUT.
FIRST District Man Rerires Prom the
Gubernatorial Race

State Senator John M. Whitehead
yesterday made the expected announce
ment of his withdrawal from the con-
test for the Republican nomination for
governor. The announcement was
brief, and was printed in the Journal
Gazette, of GAINESVILLE, which first
formally announced his candidacy. It
read:
IT am no longer gubernatorial
candidate"
The announcement, following that
of Mr.. Bradford last week, is not a
surprise, and it was only delayed to
allow Mr.. Whitehead time to consult
his friends and inform them of his
decision. The reason of it is that Mr..
Whitehead, like Mr.. Bradford, did not
find the support which he had hoped
for and expected.
He was one of the most conspicuous
members of the senate, able and hard
working, and he was always sure to be
found voting on the right side of any
question. He took special interest in
everything that promised improve
ment in methods of taxation and his
name will always be associated with
the creation of the State Tax commits
sion. H was reluctant to enter the
contest for governor and it was well
known months ago that his preference
then was to serve another term in the
state senate. It is presumed now that
he will stand for reelection to the SEN
ate.
The withdrawal of Senator White
head leaves the First District without
a candidate for governor and the dele
gates will now be Legitimate prey for
La Toilette and other contesting can
didates.

The final match for the Presidents
cup was played at the Country club
this morning between w. H. Yu1e and
DR.. G. H. Ripley, Yu1e winning by a
score of four up and three to play.
The match was hot one from start
to finish. At the end of the first round
Yu1e had his opponent two up and the
second round was battle royal. Both
the men played great game, but Rip
ley was not able to overcome the lead
and his opponent managed to secure
two more holes. In inning the Pres
ident's cup Yu1e secures the most va1u-
able trophy offered during the history
of the club. The contests for the other

For Raising An order Is Called.
H. Hendee, who was arrested a short
time ago on a charge of raising an or
der from $3.50 to S11.8O, did not appear
for trial this afternoon when the case
against him was called in Justice Sla-
ter's court. The Justice at once de-
clared the bonds of the young man to
the amount of 500, which had been
signed by John Minderman, forfeited.
The defendant in the case was in the
city on Thursday and it is thought that
he left the city to get out of being
tried. The police claim that they had
a strong case against the boy, but they
state that they will not make any great
effort to bring him back to the city for
trial. They seem to think that the
county is very lucky to get off SO easy.
