Miss lula CantweII and DR.. F. B.
LansdoWne Married at ST. James
Church Thursday Morning.
A SURPRISE FOR THEIR FRIENDS
Young People Did Not Announce Their In
ing-spend honeymoon in South.

There was quiet little wedding at
St. James church at 8o'clock Thursday
morning which resulted in Miss Julia
Cantwell, second daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. J. Cantwell, becoming the
bride of DR.. Frank B. Lansdowne.
The announcement of the wedding
comes as a great surprise to the
many friends of the young people in
the city Their engagement was an
nounced several months ago, but even
the nearest friends of the parties had
not been advised of the date of the
approaching nuptials. Early Thursday
morning the wedding party gathered
at the home of the brides parents, on
Exchange street, and drove to the
church, where they were met by Faith
err Malone, who performed the cere-
mony. The wedding was beautiful in
it's simplicity. There were a few
flowers and palms in the chance1, and
only dozen friends of the contract
ing parties were present as witnesses.
The bride entered the church on the
arm of her brother, Mr.. John Can't
we'll, who gave her away. She was
lastly dressed in travelling gown of
tan broadcloth, richly adorned with
decorations of blue silk and lace. She
was attended by her sister, Miss Alice
Cantwell, who wore a pretty dress of
blue broadc1oth. Both the ladies' re-
tanned their wraps during the cere-
mony.
After the ceremony was over few
friends in the church offered hearty
congratulations after which the we'd
ding party was driven to the home of
the bride, where wedding breakfast
was served, covers being laid for
twelve.
After the breakfast DR.. and Mrs.
Lansdowne left for short wedding
trip in the south. They will return to
Kenosha to make their home and will
be at home to their friends after De-
cember 1st. The young people are
among the best known in the city.
DR.. Lansdowne is we'll known young
physician, and is now holding the Of
fee of county coroner, while the bride
is clever little woman with host of
friends in the city, who will be pleased

the amount be turned over to the relief

that the members of this organization

their charitable work is we'll directed

The visiting veterans all pronounced
the reunion an unqualified success.
This was largely due to the generous

ALLEN sHEWMAN GONE.
Promoter Well Known Here Leaves Indiana
Home.-Foul PLAY Suspected.

Allen Shewman, the street railway
and telephone promoter, who resides
at Kokomo, Indiana, but who is we'll
known in this city, is mysteriously
missing and there seems to be good
reason to suppose that he has met
with foul play. He left his home in
Kokomo the sixteenth of last Septem-
Der to make business trip to Chica-
go, Racine and Kenosha and since
that time no trace of the man has
been found. Shewman is we'll known
in this city and it is not thought that
he has been in Kenoska since the time
he left his home. His wife and family
are still in Kokomo aud several large
industries IN which Shewman was in
terested are tied up pending his re-
turn.
Shewman has not been in Kenosha
for several years. The Kokomo man
first made his appearance in this city
as promoter for the M. r. & K. Rail
way company and after this road was
built Shewman came to this city with
the intention to build new telephone
line. The ordinanceEproposed by the
missing man is still before the Council
and the printers fees for publishing
the ordinance are still on the books
unpaid.
Shewman had many friends in Ke-
nosha and these friends will be ex-
ceeding1y sorry to hear that there is a
possibility of his having met with
misfortune. For the last year Shew-
man had been engineering one of his
cherished railway schemes in Indiana
and only few weeks ago he was
granted franchise to build an cleo
trio railway in the city of Nob1esvil1e,
Indiana.
This ordinance was hard one for
Shewman and it is possible that this
fact may have had something to do
with his strange disappearance. If
the man has not met with foul play it
is hardly possible that he will be 10
Gated either in this city or in Racine,
as he would probably seek greener
fields and pastures new in which to
work one of his new and better
schemes.
Officers from Kokomo were in the
city Friday attempting to find some
trace of Shewman but they were not
rewarded and they left the city Friday
evening for Racine.

State Tax Levy When Made Public
Shows That KenOsha Has Re-
Ceived Unusual Increase.
ALL COUNTIES ARE. RAISED.
Extra Million Dollars Must be Raised &c
Pay State Expenses Gext Year. Keno
sha Apportlonment $29. 503.s5.

The men at Madison who dabb1e
with the taxes of the State have con-
cluded their work and have announced
the annual levy for State taxes for the
coming year. AS in other cases the
commissioners have been very kind to
Kenosha county, and to use slang
phrase, have sent the taxes hiking. A
year ago Kenosha was forced to pay
for the support of the State the sum of
$14, 1920 but for the coming year the
amount has been more than doubled,
and this county will be forced to pay
into the State exchecquer 1903. 80.
Kenosha seems to be one of the few
counties in the State in which a
straight double up levy is made. All
the counties have been raised in order
to meet an increase of million dollars
needed for State funds, but the coun-
ties of Kenosha, Dodge, Forest, Jeffer-
son, Sawyer and Villas have been more
than doubled in the amount assessed
and levied.
The matter of the increase in the
State levy is explained in the follow
ing telegram:
Madison, Wis, Oct. 18.-The State
tax levy for 1902, which will be sent
out from the secretary of states Office
within few days, will show that the
total amount of state tax to be raised
next year is So, PSI 1854, as against ST.
345, $40 in 1901, or an increase of al
most 81 100000 over 1901. Because of
the increase in the valuation of all
property in the state made by the
state board of assessment at its recent
sitting the rate of taxation is only
.OO1572O1, as against .O02135825 last
than for 1901. While the amount that
will be raised for school purposes by
the one-n1ill tax is $500, 284 greater
than for the previous year, owing to
the great increase in the assessed val
uation, there is an increase in the
state tax of $1,000 over and above
the I-mi11 levy. That is, the total
amount of taxes to be raised for the
year 1902, outside of the 1-mill tax, is
1921. $40, as against $751.57O for 1901.
This increase is due, not to any extra
expense incurred in the actual conduct
of the State Government, but to the
University fund income, the Normal
school fund income, and to the aid the
State is now giving Graded schools.
This can be readily understood from a
glance at the following table showing
the various items which were put into
the State levy for 1901 and for 1902:
1901. 1902. Inc.

PRACTICE AT GEORGETOWN.
4 Scoring by Coach Church Follow.
ed by Good Work.

After a severe combing by Coach
Church, the Georgetown football squad.
numbering twenty-eight men, went on the
field yesterday afternoon determined to
eliminate from their play that quality of
listlessness which was so manifestly dis
played IN their game with st. Johns or
last Saturday. How well the varsity
boys succeeded in doing this may be est'-
mated by the fact that they made several
touchdowns there being none to the
credit of the scrubes
The play was very fierce, every man be-
ing on his mettle to do his best. The
game was the fastest seen on Georgetown
Field this year, and may be attributed to
the fact that the coach kept the men hard
at work, allowing them not even breath
ing spell.
After the practice was over the team
and students were much encouraged, and
all feel confident that when Georgetown
faces the strong Virginia Polytechnical
Institute next Saturday the local team
will finish in the lead. The game that
was TO have been played next "Wednesday
with Western Maryland University was
Cancelled by the latter.
The first touchdown in yesterdays game
was made in about twenty-five minutes
play. The scrubs made the team light
for every inch. but their centre was not
as heavy and consequently most OF the
gains were made through the line.
