HON. LL-BANNERMAN.
African war, including the contracts
for the purchase of remounts, meat
and forage, and the contracts for
freight and transportation. The motion
was opposed by the government on the
ground that the work necessary for
such an investigation would practically
paralyze the operations Of the different
war departments in South Africa.
Debate Is Decidedly Warm.
There were several acrimonious ex.
changes of remarks. Reginald McKens.
ma (LiberaD, commenting on the re-
mount department, declared that wide
spread corruption in the horse pur-
chases had been disclosed in almost
every country on the globe. Lord Stan
ley, financial secretary to the war Of.
fee, interrupted McKenna with an
angry denial Of specific charge re-
garding the purchase of horses in
Spain. He said the statement was
maliciously false, and demanded proofs
OF the assertion made. McKenna said
he took his facts from the report of
the comptroller and auditor general.
The 1mputatiOn Of malice was wholly
false. He quoted figures and claimed
that they bore out his accusation.
LambtOn Turns Loose His Guns.
LambtOn liberal Unionist) drew Sir
Henry Campbell Bannerman's fire by
declaring that the leader Of the oppo-
sition, by his reckless language, had
taken from many people the consola-
ton of feeling that their relatives who
had died in South Africa had fallen
honorably In the service of their coun-
try.
To this Sir Henry replied, angrily:
I give the most complete and most
circumstantial denial to every word
the honorable gentleman has said"
This statement caused confusion in
the house and cries of Withdraw"
Sir Henry refused to withdraw, but
LambtOn apologized to the house. af-
ter quoting Sir Henry's language APP
piled to army operations, such as
methods of barbarism," ETC. He add
ed that the house ought to demand an
authoritative declaration Of the opposi-
TONS attitude on this question.
Brodrick Demands the Authority.
Norton advanced LiberaD joined in
the attack on the government. He de-
clared that the losses on transport or
each column in South Africa amounted
to from 10000 to G100000. When
challenged regarding his authority for
the statement, Norton said Brodrick
(the war secretary had ordered de
partmental committee to investigate
the matter and had then pigeon-holed
the evidence.
Asquith strongly supported Camp
bell Bannerman's motion, which he
contended was only vote of censure
because the government had chosen to
make 1t so. Finally a vote was taken
and Sir Henry's motion was defeated
346 to 191-the victors cheering loudly
and long.

w. R. G.
Supper. sociable and Dance at simmons
Hall Saturday, March 20.


The ladies of the W. r. C. are again
working for good cause. The pro-
ceeds of sociab1e, to be held Satur-
day evening, March %, will be devoted
to very respectable and needy sol
dier's family.
Kenosha is we'll known over the
whole State of Wisconsin for its patri-
otism and the money paid out from the
w. r. G. No. Al relief fund amounts
yearly to quite a large sum. Great
thanks are due to the public, both for
patronizing our sociables and also in
assisting us to do as much good as we
are now accomplishing. This time
the Arion Quartette, Schmitt's orches-
ira ard others have been kind enough
to offer their services. The program
does not need any recommendation,
everybody knows it will be exception
ally good.
In regard to the W. r. c., it is to be
regretted that only forty-eight loyal
women of Kenosha belong to this or
ganization. Many loyal women would
like to belong, but are under the i'm
preston that only soldiers wives and
daughters are eligible. Thisis great
mistake. Any loyal, honorable women
can be accepted and we would be glad
to announce in the near future that
many loyal women have applied to be-
come members of the Corps. The
more members we have the more good
can be done. Write to our President,
Mrs. Eliza Leonard, or the Secretary,
Mrs. Sarah Brewer, for information; it
will be kindly answered. But do not
forget the sociable next Saturday
night. Admission, including supper,
Csc. Supper served from to8.
Following is the program:

AFTER MISSING GIRL.
No Trace Can be Found of Miss Title Reuse
Who Was Last Seen in Kenosha.

Mrs. Maggie Reuse, of North Chica-
go, was in Kenosha Tuesday and ask
ed the assistance of the Chief of Police
in locating her daughter, Miss Title
Reuse, who has s.been mysterious1y
missing from Kenosha since last We'd
nesday. The young woman who is
still IN her teens left her home in
North Chicago month ago and came
to Kenosha to work in one of the fac
tories here. Her mother managed to
trace her to this city but it is now
learned that she has not been here
since last Wednesday.
It is supposed that the girl came to
Kenosha on account of the fact that
John Siethamer, her sweetheart, was
employed here. The two were seen to-
gether several times, but when the po-
lice sought to find the man this morn
ing it was discovered that he had also
left the city some days ago, and was
probably working in some other city in
this State.
1 There is undoubtedly pretty little
romance behind the disappearance OF
the young people, and the,spolice are
making an effort to solve it.
