CITY FOR THE DEAD.
Chicago Parties Are Seeking to Pur-
chase Land at Kenosha for the
Opening OF Large Cemetery.
SEEK LAND SOUTH OF THE CITY
would Purchase Five Hundred Acres and
Lay out Cemetery for the Use
of Chicago People.
SEEK LAND SOUTH OF THE CITY

1t is reported today that Kenosha is
to assume in the. near future new
role to the people of the world This
city, if al deal now pending goes
through, will be known in Chicago as
''The City of the Dead For years
the Chicago people have been trying
to kill Kenosha, and a their efforts
have not been successful they are now
seeking to obtain land south of the
city for the purpose of opening
great cemetery for the use of Chicago
real estate dealers wereshere from Chi
cago today and made application to
we'll known citizen for an option on
tract of five hundred acres of land
just south of the city. @
The parties refused to give their
paper and stated that they did not
care to have their plans made public
at the present time. They are, how
ever, aiming to make Kenosha site
for hundreds of. sepulchers. For some
time the questionIof the burial of the
dead has been serious one to Chi
cago. The cemeteries have proved to
constantly increasing population Of the
city and necessity has forced the Off
Gals to look for greener fields and pas
lures new to find resting place for
those who have passed over the silent
river. Calvary is now closed to the
public and the only interments allowed
in that beautiful cemetery are to peo-
pie who have lots which were pur-
chased many years ago. Kenosha is
supposed to take the place of Calvary.
Of course it is not altogether prob
able that the people of this city will
consider the building of the cemetery
at the very gate of it as an improve
ment or an industry to be sought for,
but Chicago must have place to bury
her dead and the owners of the land
are willing to sell if the Chicago
parties are willing to pay the price.
For many years Kenosha has been
city of funerals. People who formerly
lived here have always considered it
their duty to have their ashes laid to
rest in the old p1ats in the cemeteries
and the addition of few more will not
be an inconvenience to the city.
The project will undoubtedly be re-
ceived with open arms by the fossil
element, who are constantly crying out
against the onward movement of
Kenosha.
Dead men tell nc tales and sleeping
in their sequestered mounds at the
south of us tits not probable that any
of them will rise in their graves and
seek to over Nhelmn the aforesaid city
with dangerous propositions concern
ing the location of factories and rail
ways and other things that are sup
posed to tend to the building up of a
we'll regulated city.
To the dead of Chicago we extend
hearty welcome, but to the living with
money to spend we stand waiting with
open arms to receive them.
