WoOdmsn View with Alarm the State
ments Of Head Consul that More
Money Must be Raised.
DOUBLE HEADERS" ARE POSSIBLE
Kenosha Members are Opposed to Any
General Increase of Dues
Demanded.

In kenosha it is estimated that there
are $50 members of the Modern Wood
men of America organization, and in
the entire county 1000. Of course the
objects of the order are beneficial, the
same as dozens of others in operation.
AT present they are very much inter-
ested IN the fight over increasing the
rates of insurance.
This morning one of the Chicago pa
pers, has the following to say in re-
gard to the trouble:
"Head Consul Northcott, of the Order
of Modern Woodmen, who is leading
the fight for increased rates. has
served notice on the members that the
average age of the membership is in
creasing so fast that "doub1e header"
assessments are inevitable in short
time. The order seems to have reached
the limit of growth, there being fall
ing off of 10000 in new members last
year, while the agitation over the in
creased rates will probably cause a
further decrease this year.
AAS OAd1CAS 0AC AAuAuS IL upnll1
work, the prospect of increased rates
not being popular, and J. G. Johnson,
the general attorney, former vice
chairman of the Democratic national
committee, who is a candidate for
head consul to succeed Mr.. Nothcott, is
making his campaign on platform of
opposition to the increase.
The security of fraterna1 insurance
depends largely upon the outcome of
the Modern Woodmen contest for ade-
quate rates, as it's numbers make it
conspicuous. On July / there were
701, 665 members, carrying certificates
for 81, 1853, 975, 900. Illinois leads with
1921 members, while Iowa has
81, 159 and Kansas 64,314."
Several members of the order seen
this morning said that it was true that
efforts were being made to increase
the rates. It was their opinion that
the majority of Kenosha members
would not stand for it. The claim is
made that the men who first organized
the Woodmen on a low scale must
have known it would not pay, or could
not exist after the growth reached the
limit. The claim is further made that
many of the men who are, or have
been at the head, are rolling in wealth
and it is doubtful if the members will
stand for an increase.

The Daughters. of Rebecca to the
number of about twenty-five called on
Mr.. and Mrs. G. M. Sharpe Wednesday
evening, at their home on South Ex-
change street. The occasion was Mr..
Sharpe's forty-ninth birthday, and
his guests helped him to celebrate the
day in manner long to be remem-
bered. Vocal and instrumental music
was enjoyed during the early part of
| the evening, and at half past eleven
ice cream and cake were served. Later
the guests departed, wishing their host
many happy returns of the day.
According to an opinion rendered by
Attorney General E. r. Hicks at Mad
ison Wednesday,. 1.-The socialist demo-
cratic party may nominate candidates
in county, assembly; and senate dis
tricts, irrespective of whether it polled
per cent of the vote in those districts
at the last general election. The So
cialist democrats polled over / per cent
of the total vote, but most of their
vote was in Milwaukee and Sheboygan
counties. So far as can be learned by
inquiry among local leaders the Ra-
cine county adherents to the party will
not place county ticket in nomina-
ton but will content themselves with
support of the State ticket.
The people Of Winthrop Harbor, the

which was closed few days ago on
account of financial troubles, will be
re-opened in few days. The receiver
D. j. Foley, is now making arrange
ments for the opening, and, .the plant
may open on Monday morning. Since
the plant was closed the village has
been the deadest town on the lake
shore. As majority of the men in
the village were employed at the plant
most of them were forced to go out on
the farms and seek employment to
provide for their families. It is stated
that the financial troubles Of :the COM
pany have been adjusted, and sthe
managers are now ready to reopen the
business.

NEW POSTAL LAWS.
Postmaster Frantz Makes Public New Rule
in Regard to Mailing Cards.

Postmaster Frantz Makes Public New Rule
in Regard to Mailing Cards.
Order No. 722 of November IS, 1899,
allowing the issuing of Private Mail
ing Cards under authority of Act of
May 1893, has been revoked, and ali
such cards issued after the promu1ga-
ton of this order are unavailable as
Postal Cards, but if issued prior to this
order are transmissiblei in the mails as
heretofore.
In order to be entitled to the privi-
leges of the act referred to, all such
cards must conform to the following
conditions:
Each card must be an unfo1ded piece
of card board not exceeding the max
imum size, nor less than the minimum
size of the domestic postal card.
The form of card and the quality and
weight of paper used in it's manufac-
ture must be substantially that of the
Government postal card of like size.
They may be of any color which
does not interfere with the 1egibility
of the address and postmark.
Each card must bear the words ssPost
Card" at the top of the address side,
unobstructed by any other matter, said
words to be placed thereon in consp1c-
nous letters and in such manner as not
to interfere with a perfectly distinct
address and postmark.
The address may be in writing,
printing, or by means Of hand stamp
or adhesive label of not more than
three-fourths of an inch by two inches
in size, and the sender may in the
same manner place his name or adj
dress on the back or face of card.

Post Cards intended for transmits
sion to foreign countries must bear on
the front the words, POSTAL Cards.
"Carte Postale'' and all such cards

FEAR FOUL PLAY.
Continued Absence of Il. o. Reidenbach
Causes a New Course of Search.

Continued Absence of Il. o. Reidenbach
Causes New Course OF Search.
The police Of the city will adopt new
tactics IN making the search for Her
man O. Reidenbach, who has been
missing from his home in this city for
the past month, and it is now thought
that the man is demented and is wan
dering somewhere unable to give any
account of himself. The disappear
ance of Reidenbach cannot be ex-
plained and after searching for a
month his wife and other relatives
have come to the conclusion that the
man met with foul play. Mrs.
Reidenbach seems to feel assured that
her husband is entirely true to his
family ties and scouts the idea that
the man has left the city ia the com
pany of some other woman. She
states that at the time her husband
left home he was in the best of spirits
and that there had never been bit Of
unpleasantness in the family. Mrs.
Reidenbach classes the stories of the
husband leaving with another woman
as silly rumors and she refuses to be-
lieve that there is any basis for such
tales.
During the last month the friends of
Reidenbach have expended quite lit
tie money in continuing the search for
him. Rewards have been offered and
cards with description of the miss
ing man have been sent to almost
every western city. Clues have been
run down, but all of them have proved
to be of no value in locating the man.
There seems good reason to believe
that Reidenbach met with some foul
play, as he left this part of the coun-
try with quite large sum of money
due him. He had been working at
Zion City, and although he had every
chance to collect the money due to
him from his work there the money is
still awaiting his coming. It is ar
gued that the man could not have gone
far for Kenosha, for when he left his
home he had only few dollars in his
pocket and he made no effort to bor-
row more money from his friends.
Mrs. Reidenbach will keep up the
search for her husband and she seems
to feel convinced that if he has not
met with foul play he will return to
his home as soon as possible and ex.
plain his strange disappearance.

Merry Reign of the Jolly Monarch Con-

liking Dodo's' return to the Stude-
baker Theatre was the most brilliant
midsummer opening of light opera
that Chicago has ever known, and the
business for the first week indicates in
what great respect the virtues of the
merry old monarch are held by Chica-
goans and people in the surrounding
towns. AS prominent Chicago critic
remarked, ttKing Dodo'' started where
1t left off its five months run here last
October, and could run here another
i've months to big houses. The pres
ent engagement is for five weeks more
ouly. The reason that the run cannot
be prolonged is that the company is
engaged to tour the West to the Pa
cific coast, and it is too late to change
that arrangement.
The advance sale for "King Dodo"
is exceedingly large. The fact that
it is the midsummer season does not
seem to cut any figure with the pat
ronage of king Dodo," especially as
the Studebaker, situated as it is on the
Lake Front, is the coolest theatre in
Chicago.
The o1d-time favorites are as popular
as ever, and their Individual and col
1ective work is re-demanded with as
much fervor as ever. The augmented
company and the increased size of the
production has caused a great deal of
favorable comment. "King Dodo"
matinees are given on Wednesday and
Saturday afternoons.

IN THE WRONG PEW.
Joe Simpson Gets Drunk and Makes Trouble
at the Y. MI. G. A. Building.


at the Y. MI. G. A. Building.
Joe Simpson, of the genus 'shobo''
got into the wrong pew Friday after
noon, and as result landed in the
County jail
Joe came into town Friday afternoon
and soon proceeded to get drunk. IT
was no ordinary case of drunkenness,
but Joe was SO drunk that he had a
longing for music, and thought that
he could play it himself. He walked
along Main street until he came to the
Y. M. G. A. building, and seeing a
piano in the reception room he at once
went in and planted himself on the
stool and began playing. The music
was not to the liking Of the people in
charge of the building and the police
were called to put quietus on the
budding genius of Simpson.
When Officer Stevens arrived Simp-
son informed him that he was entirely
comfortable and had no desire to ex-
change nice large room at the Y. M.
c. A. building for little cell at the
County jail. A couple of blows from
the officers club brought Simpson to
change of mind, and he then accom-
panied Stevens to the jail.
