ROAD FIGHT IN SOMERS.
Opening of Road in the Town of somers
Causes Suit in the County Court.

OduSS6 q OuAb III VIC OOnApy OO0AU
The heirs to the estate of Matthias
Buchanan have filed a petition IN the
county court asking for the appoint
meht of a jury to assess damages to
the estate, on'account of the opening of
a certain road in the town of Somers.
The fight, which promises to be an
interesting one, started some time ago
when Mrs. Margaret The1een, who
owns a farm of 90 acres having no out
let to the public highway, petitioned
the town board to have road built.
The road was ordered built and in the
building an acre of the farm belong
ing to the Buchanan heirs was taken,
along with other property. The board
allowed the Buchanan heirs the sum of
twenty dollars for the land so taken,
but the heirs refuse to accept this
amount and ask that a jury be appoint
ed to make a new assessment of dam
ages.
The case will come up for hearing
in the county court on next Tuesday
morning.

Rosa Weisung-viti IS to be the De-
fendant in a Sensational Divorce
Case in the Circuit Court.
A ROMANCE OF THE LOVELY
Rosa we1sung Was Married to Charles VIII
When she was But Is Years of Age
Husband will Seek Separation.

Mrs. Rosa Weisung VIII, aged 10
years, the child wife of Charles VIII, is
to be made the defendant in sensa-
tiona1 divorce action at the coming
term of the Circuit Court. Charles
VIII, the husband of Rosa, has in
structed attorney Calvin Stewart to
draw up the papers demanding d1-
vorce on charges of desertion.
The short married life of Rosa Weis-
ung will, bring to an end most remark
able romance, and a romance which
has resulted In bloodshed and death.
For the past three or four years Rosa
VIII has been the belle of the Italian
quarter in Kenosha. While but Is
years of age, she is very much of a
woman, and for some time she was
very much sought after by al1the lead
ing lights of the Italian quarter in
Kenosha.
Three years ago Rosa Weisung was
first introduced to the police of the
city, when her mother made complaint
to the police that she had been missing
FROM home for some time. The mother
declared that the child, who was then
10 years of age, was under spell cast
by an Italian named Sam Rosso, and
that he was keeping her from home.
Rosa was found IN Chicago and re-
turned to this city, but she disappeared
again as fast as the police returned her
to her home. Finally the mother OF
the girl consented that she should
the wedding was expected to take
place Rosa and Charles VIII eloped
from the city and were married IN
Waukegan. With his child wife Witt
returned to Kenosha and for a few
short days they lived happily together.
AT the time of the marriage of VIII
and Rosa, "Tony" Bruno, late king of
the Italians in the city, was ruling his
people with an iron hand and he OPP
posed theCmarriage. VIII was work
ing steadily and supporting his wife,
when Bruno'' attempted to make him
Jealous of Sam Rosso. One night last
spring Tony Bruno went to the place
where Vitiswas employed and told him
that Rosso Sand Wits wife were to-
RGLu0Is L nc QSdO h1uS SNCA IOOh IAO
husband to the place where Rosso was
employed and showed the wife and her
friend Rosso having very jolly time.
Witt took little notice of the matter
and some time after Bruno insisted
that Rosso sbe killed by VIII. VIII
refused sto go into the scheme and a
moment later sBruno attempted to kill
him. Witt sturned the tables and
Bruno was shot through the heart.
VIII was tried and acquitted and sin &c
that timehe has taken Bruno's place
at the head of the Italians of the city.
Mr.. and Mrs. Witt have not lived to-
gether since the trial and VIII alleges
that the little girl has deserted him.
The case promises to be very inter
esting one on account of the extreme
youth of the fair defendant in the &C
ton, and on account of the strange ro-
nance of her young life.
1t is stated that the young wife will
also take trial at the divorce mill and
attorney Buckmaster has been en-
ployed by her to seek legal separa-
ton from Witt on charges of desertion.

The Great Preachers Peculiar Habits In
Preparing His Sermons.
DR.. Lyman Beecher's peculiar habits,
shown by his method of preparing SER
mons, are illustrated in Annie Field 8
latest book, "1he Life and Letters of
Harriet Beecher Stowe. " In her words !:
"If he was to preach in the evening,
he was to be seen all day talking with
whoever would talk, accessible to all,
full of every body's AFFAIRS business and
burdens, till an hour or two before the
time, when he would rush up into his
study (Which he always preferred should
be the topmost room of the house,, and,
throwing off his coat, after swing OF
two with the dumbbells to settle the
balance of his muscles, he would sit
down and dash ahead, making quanti-
ties of hieroglyphio notes on small stub
bed bits of paper about as big as the
palm of his hand. The bells would be-
gin to ring, and still he would write.
They would toll loud and long, and his
wife would say, He will certainly be
late,' and then would be running up
and down stairs of messengers to see
that he was finished, till. just as the
last stroke of the bell was dying away,
he would emerge from the study with
his coat very much awry and come
down the stairs like hurricane, stand
impatiently protesting while female
hands that ever lay in wait adjusted his
crayat and settled his coat collar, call
ing loudly the while for pin to fasten
together the stubbed little bits of paper
aforesaid, which being duly dropped
into the crown Of his hat and, hooking
wife or daughter like satchel on his
arm, away he would start on such a
race through the streets as left neither
brain nor breath till the church was
gained. Then came the process of get
ting in through crowded aisles wedged
up with heads, the hustle and stir and
hush to look at him as, with matter
of fact, businesslike push, he elbowed
his way through them and up the pulpit

There is more Catarrh in this section Of
the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable. For great
many years doctors pronounced it a local
disease and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be constit-
utional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. ]. Cheney &
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitut-
ional cure on the market. 1t is taken in
