Rev. Geo c. Markham OF the Doug
las Place Dairy on Benning road
voiced a noble sentiment when he said
he would oppose Senate bill 4So4
known as the Milk bill because it would
operate to force many small dairymen
out OF business and thus deprive them
OF means OF livelihood. When a
man OF his standing and influence backs
up his less fortunate brother it means
much.

Social Life at Yale.

"It may seem, because of its intense
Capitalization, that Yale is particularly
open to the charge of introversion, on
the grounds that the students become
entirely absorbed in the affairs Of their
circumscribed world. 1t must be re-
membered, however, that the college
is situated in the heart Of busy town,

FROM WINTHROP TO ANTIOCH
Surveyors Start Work Laying Out New
Electric Road to Go Around Kenosha.

Surveyors Start Work Laying Out New
Electric Road to Go Around Kenosha.
There is a strong possibility that
the city of Kenosha will be left out in
the cold in the building of the many
connecting lines planned by the new
Mi1w aukee and Lake Geneva company,
as this morning surveyors started
work to lay out another route to the
west which will extend from Winthrop
Harbor to the village Of Antioch, Ill.
It is currently reported that Hay nes &
Claussen, who have a franchise for
the building of western line through
this county, have not been consulted
by the new company in their plans to
build net work of lines in Southern
Wisconsin, but that on the other hand
the Clark-Van Vlissengen Company
have been in close touch with the new
companies and have virtually agreed
to build a line from Winthrop to con-
meet with both the Lake Geneva route
and the route which has been surveyed
by the Chicago, Kerosha and Milwau-
company. Winthrop Harbor is anx-
ious to have the railway and to have
as many connections as possible.
With the rapid growth of the southern
village many new factories are being
secured and the men promoting these
factories are anxious to secure some
connections with the belt line at Watt
kegan, and hence the formation of the
new company to build the line from
Winthrop west.
With this line in operation the bust
ness of western line in this county
would be largely cut in two and be-
sides all hope of the Kenosha county
line securing connections with other
roads would be cut off. Men in Keno
sha interested in the Haynes-C1aussen
project seem to be of the opinion that
the Chicago men have abandoned their
project. Not single step has been
taken to start the construction of the
western route, and when the fran
ckises were secured the company de-
clared that the road would be COM
p1eted and in operation before Septem-
Der /.
The company which is back of the
proposed road from Winthrop Harbor
to Antioch have planned to extend
tap portion of Kenosha county. 49,.
Of course it is announced that this
line will be completed at once, but no
work will probably be done until next
spring

TWO LITTLE WAITS.
Lincoln J. Carriers New Scenic Production
Coming Next Sunday.

''Two Little Waifs," Lincoln J. Car
ters's latest triumph, is conceded to be
the prettiest scenic accomplishment
and greatest dramatic effort that has
ever eminated from that versa tile au-
thor's brain. The story is interesting
from the rise to the fall Of the curtain
without a single dull moment. The
cast is probably the best that has ever
been under Mr.. Carriers management,
embracing many well known actors
and actresses engaged especially for
their individual ability. Prominent
in the production are the tiny Lamp
children, who have gained an envia BILE
reputation throughout the-entire coun-

of nature to their parts. The scenery
and accessories are the best and most
complete equipment ever handled with
an attraction of this kind. 1.-TWO

MET INSTANT DEATH.
S. W. Johnston, Brakeman on the North.

S. w. Johnson, of Chicago, a brake
man in the employ of the Northwestern
Railway company, met instant and
terrible death on the tracks of the COM

midnight Monday night.
Johnson had been sent out to assist
in making up what is know AS pick

details of his death are a mystery a
short time later his body was found on
the tracks. It had been horribly man
g1ed, the car wheels cutting it into two
pieces. AS soon as possible the re-
mains were picked up by the trainmen
and carried to the station at Salem,
where the Justice of the Peace was
summoned to hold an inquest.

NO ACTION ON NEW BUILDING.
Foard of Education Holds Short Session
at the city Hall Tuesday Evening With
Little Business of Importance.

|. The Board of Education met in adj
iourned session at the city hall Tues
day evening and as the committee on
buildings and grounds was not ready
to report on the adoption of plan for
the new sixth ward building the meet
ing was a short one and little business
of importance was transacted. The
building plans are still being consid-
cred by the committee and it is proba-
bic that definite report will be made
at the meeting of the Board to be held
a week from last evening.
The committee has had many sug
gestions in regard to the new. building
but as yet it has not been able to rec
onci1e the estimates of the Board and
the estimates of the contractors. The
committee will take plenty of time
and before any action is taken the
members of the Board are planning to
visit surrounding cities and view the
new buildings.
The Board took action to fill the
place in the High school made vacant
by the resignation of Miss Bessie
Wells and Miss H. Grace Andrews was
selected as teacher of literature and
German. Miss Andrews comes to Ke-
nosha afters six years work in the
University of Wisconsin. She was
graduated from the University two
years ago and, since that time she has
been doing post graduate work in the
branches she will teach in. Kenosha.
She is an experienced teacher and her
employment forI High school work
should add to the efficiency of the Ke-
nosha schools. g.f tG t-a
Miss Hattie Pau1sen, a Kenosha girl,
who recently graduated from the Mil
waukee Normal school, was employed
as a teacher in the second and third
grades at the Frank building.
The committee appointed to investi-
gate the ACCESSIBILITY of offering
course of business training in the
High school was not yet ready to re-
port and this matter'was laid over to
the next meeting of the Board, as was
the question of change in some of
the text books used in the city schools.
A change in text books is about due as
the people or the city have now used
the same books for a little over two
years and the book men are willing to
make a change.

Charles S. Johnson Celebrated at
st. Georges Church Today.
AMIDST A WEALTH OF FLOWERS
Nuptla1 Ceremony is Performed by Rev.
Father Elskamp in Presence of Large
Number of Friends and Relatives.

Quite the social event of the season
IN North side circles was the marriage
of Miss Ida Katharine Huck, daughter
of Matthias Huck, and Mr.. Charles S.
Johnson, son of Mr.. and Mrs. J. B.
Johnson, of Racine.
In honor of the wedding ST. Georges
church had been beautifully arrayed
in palms and summer flowers. The
chance1 and altar never looked pref
tier and on every side were to be seen
profusion of flowers and plants.
Within the altar rail, where the vows
of love were p1ighted, were elaborate
arrangements of palms, carnations
and maiden hair ferns, while foliage
was lastly arranged in all parts of
the auditorium.
AT O'Clock the organ pea1ed forth
the wedding march and the bridal
party entered the church. The bride,
arrayed in a becoming wedding dress
of white silk null adorned with APP
p1ique and jewels, was attended by her
father, who gave her away. The
maid of honor was Miss Laura Hnck, a
sister of the bride. Miss Huck wore a
gown of white organdie and carried
large boquet of carnations. The
groom was attended by his brother,
Mr.. Walter Johnson, of Racine. AS
the bridal party approached the chan
eel they were met by Father Elskamp,
pastor of the church, who performed
the solemn ceremony which made
them one for life. Although it had
been arranged to have very quiet
wedding, the church was we'll filled
with the friends of the young people,
and after the ceremony was over they
were showered with congratulations.
After the wedding was over the
bridal party returned to the home of
the BRIDES father on Orange street,
where the wedding dinner was served
at noon. The home of the bride was
artistica1ly decorated in summer flow
ers and palms. In keeping with the
wedding ceremony only few of the
immediate friends and relatives of the
contracting parties were present at
the wedding dinner.
This afternoon Mr.. and Mrs. John
son left for short wedding trip in the
North. They will return to Kelosha
in about two weeks and will be at
home to their friends after September
18th at their new home on Market
street.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Johnson are well
known in Kenosha. The bride has
long been one of the leading ladies in
North side society, and the groom is a
we'll known salesman in the store of
the brides father.
Many out of town guests from Ra
cine, Milwaukee and Chicago were
here to attend the wedding and the
dinner which followed.
Mr.. and Mrs. Johnson were the re-
cipients of many beautiful presents
which will serve as happy souvenirs of
their wedding.

CIVILIZATION IN MISSOURI
Town In the Hands of a Murdero0s Rag
ing Mob for Fifteen Hours.


Pierce City, Mo, Aug, 21.-For
nearly fifteen hours, ended about
noon yesterday, this town of 5000 peo-
pie was in the hands of a mob Of
armed whites, determined to drive
every negro from its precincts. In ad-
dition to the lynching Monday night
of Will Cooley, accused of the wantOn
murder of Miss Gazelle Wild, and the
shooting to death OF his grHndrather
French Cooley, the mob yesterday ere
mated Pete Hampton, an aged negro,
in his home, set the torch to the houses
of five blacks, and with the aid of the
state militia rifes-stolen from 5he
local commpany's arsenal-drOve doz-
ems of negroes from town. After noon
the excitement died down, the mob
gradually dispersing-more from lack
of negroes on which to wreak It's
hatred than from any other cause.
Many of the negroes who fed the
city are hiding in the surrounding
woods, while others have gone greater
distances in seeking safety. Every
negro has left the town except few
railway pOrters known to be respect
able, but who must also leave. The
citizens of Pierce City say that as ne
groes have committed several such
crimes in the last ten years none shall
live there in the future.
1t is now believed that the>man Will

KENosHA HAS AVERAGE CROP
Late Reports From Farmers Show That
They Are Better OF Than Last Year

Late Reports From Farmers Show That
They Are Better OF Than Last Year.
The farmers of Kenosha county will
reap an average harvest this year.
Early indications in this county were
greatly against the farmer, but the re-
cent downpour of rain has raised their
hopes and it is possible that the crops
this year will be about the average
yield. This is especially true OF the
western part of the county, where the
rains have been plentiful. With the
recent rains the pastures have become
green again and it is evident that none
of the grass was burned out during the
dry weather: The crop of hay in the
county was unusually good. The pc
tato crop is not large, but it will be
much larger than has Teen anticipated.
The yield will probably be two-th1rds
of the yield of last season. The corn
crop has been badly damaged by the
dry weather, and for a short time
many of the farmers had decided to
cut it and place it in the silos for the
winter wedding, but with the coming
of rain the fields will be left to mature
and if the corn is not struck by frost
the yield now promises to be larger
than il was last year The crops of
rye, barley and wheat were the largest
ever grown in the county.
In the northern part of the county a
large amount of the land is given over
to the raising of cabbage, and while
reports have been sent out that the
cabbage crop will be very short, the
cabbage growers report that if the
frost keeps off the crop will be larger
than last year by at least Is per cent.
The fruit and berry crops in the
county were almost complete failure,
but these crops are always very small
in this county.
