FORM NEW COMPANY.
Articles of Incorporation for Wisconsin
Inter Lakes Railway Company Ready.

Articles of incorporation were
drawn in this city this afternoon for
the Incorporation of the Wisconsin
Inter Lakes Electric Railway COM
pany. The new company is incorpor-
ated with capital stock of 500, 600
and its purpose, as announced in the
articles, is to build net work of rail-
ways to connect the inland lakes of
Southern Wisconsin. By the terms of
the incorporation papers the company
will have the right to construct rail
ways in any part of Wisconsin and the
work of construction is limited to in
clude the electric and horse car lines.
The names of the incorporates have
not been made public as it is stated
est in the company more than to fulfill
the provisions of the State law and
that the real organizers of the COM
pany are Chicago capitalists. The
company, by the articles, will have the
right to build railways north, east and
west from the shore of Lake Michigan
in the town of Pleasant Prairie and
the arctic1es also provide that the
company shall have power to lease
lines to any other company doing a
similar business.
It is stated on good authority that
Patrick T. Haynes and Gustav l..
Clausen, of Chicago, are the men be-
hind the deal, but one of the incorpor-
ators; stated this morning that the
company would consist of number of
we'll known railway men. At present
the new company will control but one
road and that road will extend from
this city to the Western limits of the
county. Agents of the company are
now at work in surrounding counties
seeking to secure grants for further
extensions of the lines now planned.
The first line of the new Wisconsin,
Inter Lakes company will connect Ke-
nosha 'and Lake Geneva and there the
line will connect with line from Mil
waukee. Other routes outlined will
extend the system from Lake Geneva
to the large number of lakes in the
neighborhood of the Rock River and
GAINESVILLE.
In many cases. the new company will
pass a country which has never had
any railway facilities and it will also
make it possible for the Wisconsin
Central road to get connection with
the cities in the Southern part of the
State.
The attorney for the new company
stated this morning that the articles
of incorporation would be filed as soon
as the new Wisconsin law in regard to
the incorporation of railway companies
goes into effect.

IN weather like this everything is
out of season except a lake breeze and
a thunder storm. Even politics, that
enjoys the privilege of sort of prece-
dence over most things, is out of place
Just now. Who cares whether Chaun-
cey's idea of a third term for President
Mckinley is merely nonsense or not.
What difference does it make if the
eternal w. J. B. is trying to get him
self into line for the Democratic nom
ination for President IN 1908. That's
the centennial of the purchase of Lou
isiana and it's pretty sure thing that
Bryan, or any ore else, will not be
able to make very successful run for
the chair once occupied by the veneer
able Jefferson on any such platform
as anti-expansion. If Marcus Aurelius

things so that he can look at himself
in the Presidential mirror, no one

by any means and orders are not at all
sure to be carefully filled. In the
midst of the conditions the indigna-
ton of the good people of Kenosha
bids fair to be raised to point which
will put the use of ice at the present

SOME time ago some very good and
very sensible and very determined
people made up their minds that they
were being abused by certain other
people who had sought to establish
sort of monopoly on their trade and
who were taking advantage of this
circumstance to make these good and
sensible people pay more than was
right for what they bought. Accord
ing1y these people, who came in time to
be known to history as the fathers and
mothers of the United States, con-
Guided that, as much as they needed
and wanted these articles with which
they were provided by England, they
could better afford to getalong without
them than to allow themselves to be
imposed upon by their trade masters
across the waters, and so entered into
a solemn compact to absolutely abstain
from the purchase and use of such ma
teria1s until they were made less bur
densonle' This compact was adhered
to with the utmost fidelity. That
same spirit seems to still exist and
move the minds of the descendants Of
those good people. In fact, it has
manifested itself so strongly in Keno
sha that there is strong probability
that those receptac1es that have beer
accustomed to holding ice may be pu
to other purposes and ban may b'
put on ice until the ice companies, Of
company, see fit to relax a'litt1e. Thu
exhorbitant charge that the ice com
panies are putting upon the ice in Thu
locality has called out so strenuous
objection that ta1ksof some reta1iator!

The price of ice has doubled in th'
last year.
1t is not to be wondered at that ther'
is objection and that it takes na1ig

only has the price doubled, but tina

companies are asking SO large prices i
greatly inferior and in the majority o.
cases not fit to use in drinking water

A ROMANTIC WEDDING.
Miss Mamie Price, of Paris, Was Married
to Adam L. Middleton, of Iowa.


Only about two years ago Miss Ma
mie Price was visiting an aunt at
Eagle Grove, Iowa. Not far from
there lived a thrifty young farmer,
Adam L. Middleton, the owner of a
fine homestead of 400 acres. Adam
Immediately fell in love with Mamie
and determined to win her for his
bride. After a wooing of nearly two
years she consented to leave her home
here to be the queen of his. The re-
suit was pretty wedding which took
place on Wednesday, June %, 1901, at
the home Of the brides parents in the
town of Paris. The bride was attired
in white French Batice, gown en- train
trimmed with white lace and ribbon;
the groom in the conventional black.
The par1or was beautifully decorated
with smi1ax, roses and carnations.
The bride carried bouquet of white
roses in her hand. Rev. w. w. Will
son, of Union Grove, oficiated, max
ing the two one with the official mar
rage ritual of the Methodist Episcopal
church.
The happy pair received the hearty
congratulations Of all present and
afterwards all sat down to bountifu1
marriage feast. At 2:3O in the after
noon the bride and groom were driven
to Kenosha in carriage where they
took the next train to Chicago. They
will spend several days at the Exposi-
ton in Buffalo, will visit Niagara
Falls and other places of interest, and
after trip of two weeks will go to
their home at Eagle Grove, Iowa. Ra-
cine schools have lost one of it's sue
cessfu1 teachers by this romantic
wooing and it's finale an interesting
wedding and honeymoon. Nothing
has occurred of late that has so inter
estedly sturred our social circles. A
large circle of friends of Mr.. and Mrs.
Middleton wishes them prosperity and
happiness in their new home.

Now, according to Walter Wellman,
there is a suspicion on the part of the
knowing ones that Senator Hanna is
on the way to the White House. If
Marcus is really on the road there may
be good and sufficient cause for those
who would like to be to worry some, for
he is a large institution and would
probably occupy the road to1the exclu-
sion of all others. However, Mark has
been charged with great many
things worse than that, andsthey have
not been substantiated.
