WANTED HER HUSBAND BACK
Chicago Woman Finds Husband in Ke
nosha After Two Years Absence.

Mrs. Geogre A. Bree, a mild-eyed,
timid woman, came to Kenosha from
Chicago this morning and going up to
the local police station she asked the
police to assist her to locate her hus-
band, who had been missing from home
for about two years. The police had
been looking into the case for some
time and had little trouble directing
the woman to the place where the
husband had been living. But the
husband had already left and the
woman returned to the officers with
tears in her eyes.
In the meantime the officers had dis
covered that Bree had moved out into
the country and was working at the
dairy business. It was also alleged
that he had fair companion living
with him, and then the wife wanted to
have him arrested on a charge of
bigany. Later Bree found that he
was up against the real thing, and as
the attorney who was representing
the wife had managed to beard him in
his den, he decided to face the music
and returned to the city with the at
torney.
His wife stated that she and Bree
were married several years ago and
had been living in Chicago. Twoyears
ago she alleges that Bree abandoned
her. Since that time she has been try
ing to get hold of the man, but it seems
that Bree is something of an e1uder and
every time he has been apprehended by
the police he has managed to slip
through their clutches before his sor-
rowing wife came to claim him.
The man and woman were making
an effort to settle their difficulties this
afternoon and the woman will proba-
bly, seek a divorce if the husband
shows Willingness to assist in pay
ing the costs of the action.
Bree was seen this afternoon and
when asked what he had to say about
the case he said that all his wife had
related to the police was probably the
facts, but that he had nothing to offer
in defense.

Racine Restaurant Cooks.

Racine Restaurant Cooks.
A cook employed in a Main street
restaurant informed his employer that
he had better hire an extra cook for to-
morrow. The employer wanted to
know the reason and was informed
that tomorrow was Kenosha day at the
Carnival and Street fair, and that
large crowd was expected here and he
did not care about standing over
stove all day frying eggs for sand
wiches.
It seems as though when many Ke-
nosha people enter Racine restaurants
they call for egg sandwiches and when
a person calls for such a sandwich he
is supposed to be from Kenosha. The
result of this one on Kenosha is that
when a person gives the above order,

ARE HAPPILY Welded.
Lewis A. Lafayette and Miss Garry NJ.
Jacobsen United Wednesday Evening.


A very pleasant wedding occurred
Wednesday evening, July 18th, at $50
O'Clock, at the residence of Fred Field
schau, 756 E1izabeth street. The con-
tracing parties were Lewis A. LaFay-
cite and Miss Garry M. Jacobsen, both
well known and highly esteemed in the
younger circles of Kenosha. The bride
was dressed in blue and carried bou-
quet of white roses. She was attended
by the sister of the groom, Miss Marg.
Lafayette, while Peter Jacobsen, the
brides brother, acted as best man. The
ceremony was performed by Rev. E. F.
Dornfeld and was witnessed by NUM-
Der of relatives and friends. Among
the guests were Mr.. and Mrs. John La
Fayette, of Muskegon, Mich, parents
of the groom; Mr.. and Mrs. Lafayette,
of this city, grandparents of the groom;
Nels Jacobsen, of Kenosha, the brides
father, and other members of both
families.
After congratulations an elaborate
supper was served, which was followed
by several happy hours of a social ma
ture. May the young couple, who will
make their home in our midst, enjoy
many blessings and long and happy
life.

Gospel if you offered to give it to them
They are so afraid it will hurt their
ancestors and that this evil will react
on themselves. Poor things! to be so
blind, and poor Missionaries! who put
up with all sorts of inconveniencies
trying to bring these heather to the
light, and all so unappreciated by
these same heather. They sometimes
let one know so plainly that one is not
wanted. But while the multitude does
not want us, there are here and there
those that do. For instance, at Nam
III met beggar who paid me full
price for the Gospel of John. He shed
tears as he told me of how he had
prayed to every spirit (he seems
to be threatened with 1eprosy),
and if God was the true Spirit, he
would pray to Him. Should he knee1
when he prayed; and how should he
pray? All such questions he asked
of me.
Nodoa, June 18th After many days
and various experiences, / have at last
reached this place, where plan to
spend two weeks with Mrs. Me1rose
and others.
The road which have come over was
pretty tough travelling over stony
hills, across many steep banked streams
and through paddy fields, where the
roads are almost too narrow to walk on
and these muddy and slippery. My
pony carried me along safely, how
ever. Our books are all sold out and
we were we'll received.
This region is now up IL rebellion.
We are now expecting to be attacked
most any time. The Christians out in
their villages have suffered much.
Their cows are nearly all stolen by the
thieves, and they have brought what
| they have left up here for safe keep
ing. Soldiers have gone from here to
those villages to guard them while they
carry their rice up here. Next, they
will probably come themselves. We are
sending to the British consul for more
soldiers. We missionaries have guns
and have fortified the porches of the
two houses here, and are waiting for
the music to begin. The thieves are
all banded together in the Triad Socie-
ty and they would like to get possession
of these houses of ours for forts for
themselves. 1 wish you were here.
may not think it SO funny if they dc
really attack us, but SO far, feel that
/ do not favor our running away and
leaving the native Christians to fight
it ont alone. 1t is not d special grudge
against us, nor against the native
Christians, only in a rebellion, those
who will not join are prosecuted and
forced to join. Being heather affair.
everyone that joins has to worship
idols, which Christians cannot do, and
there comes the rub. This place is
ninety miles from Hoi-how in a differ
ent direction from Lia-rnui. Get out
your map of Hai-nan and see.
At night, we lay out some dark
clothes to slip into, SO if we should
have to evacuate, we can do so without
attracting much attention. We have
horses, too, so each can mount and ride
off. Exciting, isn't il? But do not be
alarmed about me, for I am not plan
ming or expecting to get hurt. Miss
NJ. will probably be back in September
and I may start home in July, 1901.
Much love to you both.
Your sister,
KATE L. SCHAEFFER.

INTEREST TO WOODMEN.
Believed That the order Comes Under the
Bishop Ban-Many Catholics Belong.

Bishops Ban-Many Catholics Belong.
"The Modern Woodmen certainly are
suspicious, and you may say that the
archbishop is of the opinion that they
come under the head of forbidden So
cieties," said the Rev. Augrstin F.
Schinner, of Milwaukee, when asked
the position of Archbishop Katzer in
the matter of the ban which has been
placed upon this order and that of the
Maccabees by Bishop Fink of the
diocese of Lteavenworth, Kan. GAS to
the Maccabees, - continued the secre-
tary, ''no investigation has yet been
made by Archbishop Katzer, and he is
not ready to express an opinion,
Archbishop Keane, of st. Louis,
issued a letter some time ago
against the Modern Woodmen, but
Archbishop Katzer has not yet taken
any official action, though it is his
opinion that the Modern Woodmena
come under the ban of forbidden
societies."
1t is said that there are large
number of Catholics who belong to
these two orders in Bishop Fink's
diocese and that they will oppose the
will of the bishop and refuse to leave
the lodges.

rs 1T RIGHT
For an Editor to Recommend Patent
Medicines?


Medicines ?
From Sylvan Valley News, Brevrad, N, c,
1t may be question whether the ed
itor of a newspaper has the right to
publicly recommend any of the various
prop1ietarysmedicines which flood the
market, yet as a preventive of suffer
ing we feel it a 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 a cure, but we do believe that if a
bottle of Cham ber1ain's 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
a physician would not be required. At
least this has been our experience dur
ing the past twenty years. For sale
