Something. New Under
'ThesSun."

All doctors have tried to cure CA
TARRH by the use of powders, acid
gases, inha1ers and drugs in paste
form. Their powders dry up the mu-
cous membranes causing them to crack
open and bleed. The powerful acids
used III the inha1ers have entirely eaten
away the same membranes that their
makerss have aimed to cure, while
pastes and ointments cannot1reach the
disease. An old and experienced prac-
titioner who has for many years made
close study and speciality of the
treatment of CATARRH, has at last

Steam Defiea Ice.

The time between Moscow and
Vladivostok on the Pacific via Siberia
by the completion of the Trans-Baikal
railroad has been reduced to nineteen
days. The rail route is uninterrupted
up to Lake Baikal, this part of the trip
by fast train requiring about eight
days The lake is crossed by an ice
breaking steamer built in England and
taken to the heart Oh Asia in pieces,
to be reconstructed on the lake side.
The steamer trip requires nine hours.
Later the southern shore of this inland
sea is to be skirted by the railroad, so
that there need be no change Of cars.
The Trans Baikal rOad-that is, the
part Of the road east of the lake,
which has just been finished, runs to
Stretensk, on the Amur river. This
place is reached in eleven days from
Moscow. The trip on the Amur
steamers requires a week, and the
Journey on another railroad which
runs from the boat landing TO Vlad-
ivostok consumes thirtytwo hours
more The through fare, first class, is
about $50.

Paris Wild Beasts.

An Enclosure has been erected in the
park at Vincennes, where part of the
Paris exposition was held, in which
scientists may study wild animals in
surroundings resembling as nearly as
possible their native haunts. The en-

newly constituted Institute Of Animal
Psychology. In sort Of circus con-

Yankee Ideas In London.

The Americanization of England still
proceeds, and British traders will need
to get up very early if they are going
to compete with some Of their latest
rivals from the United States. One
American firm whicn deals in boots
and shoes has opened London branch
and invites ladies to regard its shop
practically as a ''home from home"
The premises are fitted up with taste,
and it is announced that there is a
reading-room, with periodicals, etc. u
reception-room and retiring room, a
writing-room, a bureau of information
for strangers visiting the metropolis,
and a maid to wait upon her wants"
Finally, ladies are cordially invited
to avail themselves of these conyen,
fences, whether patrons or not" What
more can the most obliging tradesman
do to win the favor of the public?

THAT sOMERs ROAD.
one of the Parties Interested in the Road
Gives Few Facts.

Mr.. EDITOR:
Dear Sir-P1ease allow me space
in your columns in reply to an article
which appeared in several Racine and
Kenosha papers few days ago in re-
gard to a road fight between Carl
Scheck1er and the town of Somers, this
county, about the six feet Of highway
which Mr.. Sch1ecker is accused OF
having fenced in or taken, will say
the writer has entirely misrepresented
the case.
The road in question has been laid
out expressly for Mr.. VIM. Bose; it is
not a main road and will not be Of any
material benefit to the public for some
years. It will no doubt increase the
value of Mr.. Bosses farm several
thousand dollars an expense to-the tax
payers for a new bridge. It is not
true that the farmers are up in arms.
On the other hand they are very
much opposed to the opening up of
this road, as it will add one more
bridge, making four within a mile, as
all the bridges must be rebuilt very
soon. The road mentioned was laid
out on the section line. Mr.. Scheckler
requested the Town Board to survey
the road, which was denied for some
time. Finally they agreed to do so.
On the 10th of August, when they ar
rived on the grounds, Mr.. Bose was
asked if he knew where certain gov
eminent witness tree stood. He re-
piled that he knew we'll, and stood on
the spot on East side of where the
fence stood on his side, and said here
that witness tree stood. Whereupon
the County Surveyor replied elf that
is the spot your line fence is six feet
on Mr.. Scheck1er's land" in the pres
ence of the Town Board and several
men, which gives conclusive proof
that Mr.. Scheckler's fenceis correct.

The record OF those OF our pioneers
and early settlers whose deaths have
occurred since our last annual reunion
is given as above. Three of those
whose names are recorded attained the
age of upwards of 90 years. Eighteen
of them attained to so and up to IS
years. Twelve attained to 20 and up
to 70, and twelve fell below the age Of
70. Of six of those named no record of
their ages could be obtained from pub
lie sources. Those who reached about
90 years are early settlers in two ways.
When little children they came with
their parents at an early date IN the
settlement Of the county and grew up
with it. Some whose names are re-
corded moved to other places in early
days and only the record of their pass
ing away has come back to us.

died August /, 1901, at the age of a.,

IN REGARD TO TEXT BOOKS.
A School Patron Has a Few Words to Say
in Regard to Changes.

in Regard to Changes.
From the number of book agents in
the city we surmise that the Board of
Education is contemplating some more
changes in text books. These fire.
quent changes of text books are one of
the misfortunes of our public school
system. No sooner does some new fad
or new book come out but what there
are plenty Of people in the school bust
ness who are eager to try one and
adopt the other. Expense to the pupils
is lost sight of in the desire for new
things. Many school masters in the
fear that they will be called old fogies,
go to the extreme of trying every new
thing which is suggested and of rec
ommending every new text book which
comes into the market. In school
books, as in many other things, Pope's
rule holds good:
Be not the first by whom the new is tried,
Nor yet the last to lay the old aside.
There are plenty of schools that are
willing to experiment on these new
books, and we do not believe in having
Kenosha pay the expense of such ex-
periments. The books now in the pub
lie schools of Kenosha are, we under
stand, widely used, highly recon-
mended, and very successful, and that
being the case, we do not believe it is
in the interests of the people of Keno
sha to make expensive changes at this
time. A SCHOOL PATRON.

HOUSE GOWNS.
Many OF Them Show a Tendency To-
ward the Picturesque.


There is a rising fancy for tabled
effects which are reminiscent Of the
Stuart period. A charming dress re-
Gently imported was treated after this
manner. The edges of the tabled waist
were outlined by narrow black ribbon
passed through slides Of green enamel
on either side of the front. The decol-
letage was cut square, and there was a
square tabled collar, which fell well
over the shoulders.
Some Of the newer tea gowns show
skirts gathered into long pointed
bodice effect in front. The neck is cut
out to form a slight decolletage in the
front only. For such gown Powered
silk is the most picturesque material,
although louisine is a great favorite
on account Of its graceful folds.

styles Of negligees is shown in today's
