TO EXTEND IT'S SCOPE.
Kenosha County Medical Association Offers
Benefits to Many Doctors.

The Kenosha County Medical asso-
citation held a business meeting last
evening at the parlors of the Grant
Hotel for the purpose of revising the
constitution and bylaws of the society.
A new constitution was adopted and
in keeping with the provisions of the
new constitution the society will
greatly extend it's scope of usefulness.
In the past years the benefits of the
society have been limited to members
of the profession residing in Kenosha
county, but with the new constitution
members can be admitted from any
county in Illinois or Wisconsin. Un
der the new plan it is thought that the
growth of the society will be very
large.
While at present the doctors do not
plan to make the association one of
state interest it is probable that in fu-
ture it will assume a more important
place among the doctors of Southern
Wisconsin and Northern Illinois. The
medical association has done a great
deal of good during its short life. 1t
has brought the physicians of the city
into more friendly relations, and with
the association as lever the doctors
have done much to improve the work
of the profession in Kenosha.
Nearly every doctor in the city and
county is now listed with the associa-
ton. During the next few months the
association has planned to do a great
deal of work. The doctors will un-
doubted1y take some step to secure
better sanitary conditions in Kenosha.
With the appointment of physician
as health officer the doctors have taken
new hope and they will seek to secure
concessions from the council to pro-
vide for better condition of the city.
Under the last administration of the
city's affairs the physicians were silent
but with one of their own number at
the head of the health department
they should be able to advise measures
for the improvement of the public
health.
With the extension of the scope of
the work of the society the member
ship will undoubtedly be considerably
enlarged and the secretary has already
received applications for membership
from physicians in Lake county.

NEW MANAGER FOR WISCONSIN
John Gibson Will Take Charge of Local
Telephone Office Next Monday.

John Gibson, for several years line
man for the Wisconsin Telephone
company in Kenosha, has been mott
fed that he has been advanced to the
office Of manager of the Kenosha Office
to take the place of F. B. Mi1ligan,
who will leave the latter part of this
week for a new position.
Mr.. Gibson, the new manager, IS
well known in Kenosha. He has been
connected with the telephone company
here almost since the first phone was
placed in the city and he should make
the company splendid manager. A
thorough business man, he has the
confidence of all the people of the city.
and the business of the telephone COM
pany will undoubtedly thrive under
his management. No other changes
are contemplated in the local Office at
the present time.
Mr.. Mi11igan has received notice of
his advance to better position with
the company, but his new position has
not been made public.

CHIEF OF POLICE NEwHOUsE is en-
deavoring, by hook or crook, to have
covered boxes placed on the corners to
serve as receptica1es for the waste pa
per that usually finds its Judgement on
the streets. Chief Newhouse is to be
commended for his effort to do away
with flying paper. May he succeed.
AS the city always has it's money spent
before it gets it, the Chief will appeal
to the merchants to build the boxes.
AS the expense is not alarming it
would not prove great burden to the
Kenosha merchants to respond to the
suggestion and probably it would, in
time, prove a paying investment.
With such boxes on the corners at con-
venient distances and a little care on
the part of the people the streets could
be easily kept free from waste paper
and the accident list would diminish
considerable in the course of year.

BEAT WIFE AND CHILDREN.
Frank Julka Spends Thirty Days in Jail
for an Attack on His Family.

Frank Ju1ka was arrested this morn
ing by Chief of Police Newhouse on
charge of pointing deadly weapon,
the complaining witness being the
daughter of Ju1ka.
Ju1ka lives on Jenne street, and the
place which his family has been accus-
toned TO call home was the scene of
great excitement at an early hour this
morning. Ju1ka had been down town
ali the evening, and went home shortly
after midnight. He was not able to
get into the door, and raped loudly
for admittance. The ladies in the
house, who had retired for the night,
were little slow to respond, and when
he was finally admitted he was in
towering rage.
He went to the bed where his daugh-
ter was sleeping and beat the girl in
horrible manner. The mother at
tempted to interfere and she was beat
en- as badly as the daughter had been.
With this the women fled from the
house and took refuge at the home of
a neiohbor. Officers Ortiz and K1eist
were called to the house and discovered
that beside beating the women Julka
had pointed a revolver at his daughter
and threatened to kill her. The Of
fender was arraigned before Justice
ten dollars and costs. Not being able
to pay the fine he was sent to jail for
thirty days.

Boston, with it's long and fairly
earned reputation for the staidness, de-
mureness and retiring studiousness OF
it's bespectacled young women, has just
sprung a novel sensation on the Amer

For the first time since Zachary
Taylor a President of the United
States has visited Memphis, and for
the first time in the history of the aged
city, save when that same genial
Irishman, President in embryo, gave
Johnnie Bull a black eye among its
cotton balls, the Chief Magistrate of
the Republic has visited the city of
New Orleans. Nevertheless, at Mem
phis and at New Orleans, and at all the
intervening points, at Vicksburg and
at Jackson President Mckinley was
given an ovation. There was no sign
of sectional jealousy or prejudice.
There was no GOODNESS nor apathy.
There was not even noticeable that
studied courtesy and hospitality that
bespeaks strained conventiona1ity.
There was nothing but patriotic en-
thusiasrn and spontaneous good will.
The welcome given the President was
just such as he would get anywhere in
the North. It signifies, just as did the
response of the South to the recent
call for volunteers, the true unity OF
the North and South. It tells the
story of a people whose first and dear.
est object is everywhere the same, Our
Country.
