DR.. Dassaud, the discoverer, has
also arranged an electric vibration
for the use of the deaf who are in

By direction of Land Commissioner
Hermann a new map of the United
States has been made, which shows all
the insular possessions of the United
States, as we'll as all the territory on
the mainland. The work has just
been completed and presents an in.
teresting study of the development of
the country since it became indepen-
dent. This map was prepared by a
civil engineer of the drafting division
of the interior department., under in
structions of the commissioner of the
general land Office.
The map is large one, showing tho
extent of public surveys, Indian, mili-
tary and forest reservoirs, railroads,
canals and other details. It also con-
tains an index map showing the rela-
tive position of recently acquired is-
lands to the United States. Those is-

The patrolman explained that he
had heard somebody singing in the
church. Remembering the escaped
lunatic he had telephoned DR.. Barton,
of the asylum. The doctor had joined
him, and both had heard the singing,
although it was evidently a woman's
voice.
The three men entered the church
by a basement door. The bolt shot
back grudgingly, with a grating sound.
Louise heard it, and duly wondered if
help were at hand. She paused and
listened. Did she hear footsteps in
the lower hall? Suddenly the mad
man by her side half sprang to his
feet and bent threateningly toward
her. Terrified, yet with renewed cour-
age, she opened her lips. The rescuers
on the steps halted in amaze at the
burst of triumphant melody, while the
maniac, tranquilized, sat back to his
place.
The doctor turned to his aids. go

It's lady that's singing, but my man

The men obeyed, feeling their way
through the cellar dusk to the other
end of the church.
'God will hearken, God will save"
sang Louise, all the pathos of prayer
in her voice. As the words left her
lips the curtain at the transept stair
way was thrust aside, revealing the
figure of the asylum superintendent.
Mechanically she sang on, while DR..

patient, advanced with measured tread

Flames Destroy the Big Resort Owned
by Henry Spitzman on the Banks
of Powers Lake.
FIRE MAY HAVE BEEN INCENDIARY
Building is Discovered Burning Shortly

Loss Placed at $1O,o

One of the worst fires that has oc-
Cured in the county in many years oc-
Cured last Saturday evening at
Powers Lake, when the resort owned
by Henry Spitzman together With all
the attendant buildings were COM
p1etely destroyed by fire which was
supposed to have been of an incendiary
origin. Only the most meagre details
of the fire have been received in Ke-
nosha, but it is stated that the loss
will be above ten thousand dollars and
and that the insurance is only trife
of this amount
The fire was discovered shortly after
eleven O'Clock and the entire commu-
nifty was called out to assist in fight
ing the flames. The volunteer fire.
men worked as hard as possible, but
the fire gained rapid Roadway and
spread from building to building un-
til the entire group of buildings had
been destroyed. as
Powers Lake has for some time
been favorite resort for a number of
Chicago families and while no one was
hurt in the fire it is probable that
many of these people lost considera bic
of the property which had been left at
the hotel.
The origin of the fire is mystery,
and while it is reported that the blaze
was possibly of incendiary origin there
is nothing to sustain this report. It
is also reported that the fire originated
from the explosion of gasoline lamp.
Efforts to secure more minute details
of the confagration have so far failed.
Later-A telegram from Twin Lakes
this afternoon announces that the
family of Mr.. Spitzman and the few
boarders who were stopping at the
hotel had narrow escape from the
hnrning building. Ali the clothing of
the members of the household were de-
stroyed and the people escaped in their
nightdresses and were taken to New
Munster. The hotel, saloon, bowling
alleys, and ali the barns and out build
ings were destroyed. In one of the
barns were two horses which were
burned to death. The insurance on
the burned buildings is said to be d
little over $4,000.

HAS A FACTORY PROPOSITION.
L. Carr, of Dubuque, Iowa, Tells Dream to
the Common Council Monday Evening.


L. Carr, a resident of Dubuque,
Iowa, appeared before the Common
Council at its meeting Monday even
ing and asked the city to take some
action in regard to locating factory
in Kenosha. Mr.. Carr is the patentee
of several articles and he is planning
to build great factory for the manu-
facture of these patents. The pro-
moter of the great industry appeared
before the Council in person and with
a broad Irish brogue he explained his
inventions and the manner in which
the factory was to be built. The in
ventions seem to be numerous and if
the factory is built it will be used for
the manufacture of names, all sorts of
light buggy and wagon trimmings
and trimmings for harness. Mr.. Carr
saw in Kenosha an ideal location for
this sort of a factory. He controls the
patents which he would use in the in
dustry and all he seeks is to have a
bonus, few Kenosha capitalists 10
take stock in the factory and a suit
at1e site for the factory.
Nor is this ALL In connection with
the hame factory Mr.. Carr IS planning
to establish wooden and cotton mills
for the purpose of manufacturing a
new burglar proof shirt for men and
women. The shirt is really something
wonderful and as the inventor ex-
plains it makes a robbery impossible.
The shirt is so built that the mans

pocket of the inside Shirt Of course
this shirt will be an innovation, and
while it may be a little unhandy to
wear it will certainly assure the safe
keeping of money unless a man is
sandbagged and his shirt as we'll as
his money taken.
In order to make Kenosha the center
of this great industry the Council re-
ferred the matter to the Business
Mems association and they will be
asked to confer with Mr.. Carr on the
matter.
In order to give further confidence
to his plans Mr.. Carr has secured the
cooperation of The Daniels Banking
company, of New York, which has
promised to float the bonds of the COM
pany when it is organized. In speak
ing of the factory Carr declared that it
would furnish employment to a large
number of nnen and that it's output
would exceed anything of the sort in
Kenosha.
Mr.. Carr has visited Kenosha be-
fore but in the past he had made no
reference to his patents or his plans
for big factory in this city.
At present it seems hardly possible
that Mr. Carr will receive the support
of the business men in building up his
great plant

MUST REMAIN AT THE STATION
Recent order of the Government Affects
Kenosha Life Savers

The recent order of the directors of
the life saving service demanding that
the men spend all their time at the
stations, is causing considerable dis
satisfaction among the crews about
Lake Michigan. This order was re-
ceived at the local station some three
weeks ago, but for some time themem-
bers of thesKenosha crew have lived
almost exclusively at the station
The men do not care to wander from
their own ssafresides, and therefore
there is little danger of the Kenosha
station beings1eft without plenty of
men to answer an emergency call.
For some time the majority of the
members of the Kenosha crew have
taken their meals at or near the sta
ton, and never in the history of the
station has a call been made when
there was no one to respond.

A RECORD BREAKER.
G. W. Allen and Charles Matthews Play
an 81-Hole Golf Match.

One of the most interesting golf
matches ever played on the links of
the Kenosha Country club was played
recently between Charles w. Allen
and Charles Matthews. The two men
are very evenly matched and there has
been a great deal of dispute as to their
powers as golfers, but with the ending
of a tournament lasting for eighty-one
holes the balance of power goes to Mr..
Matthews.
The two men met on the links and
challenges fell fast and thick. It was
finally decided to play a seventy-two
hole course and the opponents agreed
to finish the entire course without re-
freshment. The match was started,
but after thirty-six holes had been
played the two men were still on equal
terms and it was decided to adjourn
for dinner. AS soon as a lunch had
been eaten the men were on the links
again and four more round were made
with the result that the players were
all even up. They started for the club
house when a ninth round was pro-
posed and at once accepted. At the
close of the last of the eighty-one holes
Mr.. Matthe VS. had a lead of two holes
and the match.

LOSE TO MILWAUKEE,.
Kenosha Golfers Are Defeated by Milwau-
kee Team Saturday.

The return team match played on
the Milwaukee Country Club links be-
tween the Milwaukee and kenosha
teams Saturday afternoon resulted IN
a victory for the former team by So
holes up. The match played at Keno
sha July IA ended all square, each
team scoring 80 holes. The winning
of the match Saturday makes the Mil
waukee Country Club victorious in the
home-and-home contest for this season.
Twenty players on each team com
peted, Thirteen members on the Mil
waukee team were successful in de-
feating their opponents, while five of
the Kerosha team were victors, the
balance of the matches ending all
square.
C. P. Spooner, of Milwaukee, car
ried off the honors of the day and did
the best work of all the players COM
peting. He not only defeated his op-
ponent, George A. Yule, by score OF
II up, but made a record of 81 strokes,
which is seldom equaled in compet1-
ton play.
The team from Kenosha was accom-
panied by a number of non-combatant
members of the club and by goodly
number of the women interested IN
golf.

A TEN INNING GAME.
Ksnosha Athletics Defeat the Chicago
Franklins After Hard Struggle.

After one of the fiercest struggles of
the season the Kenosha Athletics de-
feated the Chicago Franklins at base
bail at Grand View Park Sunday
afternoon, while crowd of about two
hundred rooters hooted their approval
Of the work of the home team. The
game was long drawn out one and,
thanks to some lucky hitting in the
tenth inning, with one man out the
Kenosha team managed to pull the
winning run across the plate. The
final score of the game was eleven to
twelve with Kenosha having the
twelve.
There were no very brilliant plays
during the ten innings, but each team
made plenty of errors, and while there
were some hits many of the scores
were made on the misp1ays of the OPP
ponents.
Brown, the new Kenosha pitcher,
made his first appearance and was out
of practice. On this account he was
an easy mark for the Chicago team
and he retired in favor of Bu1man who
pitched good game. Brown is a
good pitcher and his work of Sunday
cannot be considered as an indication
of his powers, as he was sadly in need
of practice when he went into the box.
One unfortunate incident of the
game was serious injury to Breen,
the Kenosha catcher. In the sixth in
ming Breen attempted to stop a hot
one and had one of his fingers badly
sprained. The report that the finger
had been broken was erroneous and it
is probable that the catcher will be
able to return to the diamond by next
Sunday.

TO SUE FOR DIVORCE.
Mrs. Walker, of Antioch, Starts Proceed
ings Against Her Husband.

Mrs. James G. Walker, who resides
at Cross Lake near Antioch, has be-
gun proceedings against her husband
on charge of assault and battery and
VIII also sue for divorce.
A warrant has been issued for Wal
ker's arrest. He conducts the Foun-
tain House at Waukesha, Wis.
The story, as given out by attorney
Ingalls,, of Racine, Mrs. Walkers
cousin, is that Mrs. Walker was in the
hotel with her husband August 9. She
contemplated going for visit to Chi
cago. Her husband is alleged to have
opposed her going and a dispute arose.
He is said to have sprung upon her
and pounded her on the face and head.
Attorney Ingalls, says that her body,
even at present time, shows the effects
of the treatment she received.
The condition of Mrs. Walker was
so serious she was unable to get up
from the bed.
Later DR.. Hodgson was called and
SO serious were her injuries that he
stated she would die. After a week
Mrs. Walker was taken to her summer
home at Antioch, Ill.
Mrs. Walker, before her marriage,
was Miss Smell, of Chicago, daughter
Of Amos J. Smell, who was murdered
by Tascott.
Mrs. Walker is we'll known in Keno
sha, and many people here will be
greatly surprised to learn that she is
seeking legal separation from her hus-
band.
