EXTENDS HIS RIGHTS
Patrick FrieI Makes Application for
Patents in Canada to Cover
Tube Making Devices.
NEW INVENTION MAY BE A MARVEL.

Patrick Friel, foreman of the tube
room of the Simmons Manufacturing
company, is planning to extend the
protection on his machinery for the
manufacture of brass tubing and to
this end today he made an application
for patent for his inventions in the
Dominion of Canada.
The device now being patented in
the Dominion is device for the manu-.
facture of brass tubing. It is an in
vention Of great value to the users of
brass tubing and consists of a small
die which will make steel tube and at
the same time cover it over with thin
veneering of brass, making a practi-
cally seamless brass tube. The first
patent on the device was secured two
years ago and since that time the die
has been used for the manufacture of
all the tubing ia use in the Simmons
plant. The patent has never passed
from the control of the patentee, but
the Simmons company pays a large
royalty for the use of the invention.
What is of greater interest to the man
ufacturing world is the announcement
that Friel has just completed the max
ing of die which will manufacture
square tubing of brass and steel SINH
lar to the product of the die now in use
at the Simmons factory.
In recent years the manufacture of
brass beds has been revolutionized and
there has been big demand for beds
in which the square tubing can be
utilized. AT the present time no
square tubing can be made and these
portions of the bed have been made of
solid brass. Should the new invention
of Mr.. Friel prove to be a successful
one It would result in the saving of
thousands of dollars annually to the
manufacturers of this sort of material.
FrieI has been in charge of the tube
room at the Simmons factory for sew
eral years and great things are ex-
pected Of him in the inventive line.
His inventions have already brought
him in a large sum of money and
should his new invention prove as sue
cessful as the forerunners it will make
him independently wealthy.

KenOsha Chapter OF the Order OF the
Red Cross Asks Druggists and
Doctors For Aid.
MEMBERS MAY LOSE BENEFITS
Secretary of the Order States That an Eff
fort Will BE Made to Keep the Order
Going by Securing New Members.

The Kenosha chapter of the order of
"The Red Cross is facing crisis and
the officers have been forced to send
a petition to the druggists and the
members of the medical profession in
the city asking that services be con-
tinued to the members of the order
with the understanding that the drug
gists and physicians will either wait
for their money until it can be col
lected in the way of dues orshare alike
in distribution of the funds which
may not be sufficient to meet all obli-
cations.
The members of the order, eighty in
number, are remaining loyal and 1t is
possible that the order will be able to
pull through the present financial en-
barrassment. John H. Corcoran, Sec
rotary of the Kenosha lodge of the
order, ia speaking of the matter this
morning admitted that the order was
in financial trouble. He said: eve
have asked the druggists and doctors
to extend the time for the payment of
the bills due against the order and the
doctors have agreed to do this but
some Of the druggists have refused
There have been heavy drains on the
treasury of the order but we are max
ing every effort to keep it going and if
possible sufficient number of new
members will be secured to provide for
all expenses and put the order on a
firm financial standing"
Thus far the order has met all the
demands made upon it by its eighty
mem bers. Should it be found neces-
sary to discontinue the work of the
order in Kenosha the losses to the peo-
pie of the city will be exceedingly
small and the total amount will not ex-
coed 5000. Many of the members OF
the order have received a great deal
more than they have paid in. Others
have paid in as much as six dollars
without receiving any return.
The chapter in Kenosha was organ.
lied less than year ago. It contained
something like hundred people. The
plan was that each of the members
should pay into the treasury of the
order the sum Of fifty cents monthly
and in consideration of this payment
the order promised TO pay for all medi.
cal attendance and medicine demanded
| for the mem bers during the year. Al
| first the demands on the order were
very small but recently they have been
SO large that the treasury is depleted.

MUST RAISE LEVY.
Tax Committee OF the City Council De-
cides to GrappIe With the Ques-
ton of Increased Demands.
HEROIC ACTION IS DEMANDED.
Annual Levy Will be at Least One and One
Fourth Per Cent and May 60 Higher.
Expenses Must be Met.

After years of trifing with financial
stringencies the Tax Committee of the
city council has finally decided to take
the bull by hehorns and on next Mon
day evening the committee will sub
init report to the council in which
the annual levy of taxes will be made.
The levy will not be the same as last
year and it is probable that it will
show an increase of one-fourth per
cent over the last levy.
For the past ten years the city has
been running steadily behind in her
financial settlements and ali the care
ful management in the world is unable
to make the money raised by one per
cent levy meet the demands on the ex.
checquer of the city. The demands
for the coming year are greater than
in any previous year and in order to
meet them the members of the commit
tee have been forced to make an in
crease in the tax levy. The total val
uation of property in the city is lit
tle1arger than last year and with a
levy of one and one-fourth per cent
the city will be able to raise about
$130,OO0.0O. This will be $4,000 more
than last year and most of this in
crease will have been spent before the
levy is made. Some of the members
of the committee seem to faver even a
larger increase in the tax In order to
allow the city to start some where
near even with the world when the
taxes are collected. The new bridge,
the new school, the repair of the break
water, changes in the fire department
and half dozen added expenses for
next year will demand the increase in
money raised for the city to the extent
of many thousands of dollars. There
IS also prospect that the city will be
forced to speud large sum on her
sewer system and with this in view
the demand for money will be increas-
| ed.
| Mayor Pfennig while unwilling to
burden the people of the city with
taxes is Of the opinion that the city
should make some firm financial stand
and once and for all put the city on a
basis where she could at least break
even at the end Or the year. The
members of the committee feel that the
increase in the levy is sure to come
sooner or later and the sooner the PEG.
| pie get the debts out of the way the
better it will be for all of them.
The matter has been carefully stud
led and the prosperity of the people Of
Kenosha at this time is urged as one
of the best reasons for making the in
crease this year rather than in some
other year.
Thoughtless people and politicians
who refuse to see the righteousne of
this act will undoubtedly attempt to
make political capital out of 1t but to
the hard headed citizen who pays the
taxes the increase will come as well
come release from the debts that have
been for years hanging over the city.

POLICE ON DRESS PARADE.
New Overcoats Make the Guardians Look
Like Patrolmen of Other Cities.

New Overcoats Make the Guardians Look
Like Patrolmen of Other Cities.
- fGntR E,u
Theypolice force of the city was out
on parade last night and as the mem
bers of the force marched down the
street to their different beats they
caused no end of wonder and ad Mira
ton. ssItwas all on account Of their
new overcoats which arrived yester-
day. The coats which we're made by
an eastern clothing firm are of the reg
ulation uniform style. They have an
abundance of big brass buttons and
are made after the box pattern. When
a policeman gets into one of the coats
he looks as big as house and there is
no doubt but that the coats will help
not little in frightening off criminals.
The coats were not paid for by the
city but purchased by the officers
them selves.

GAME WARDEN is STRENUOUS
Oficer Rclnardy Has Busy Day Sunday
with Rabbit Hunters.

with Rabbit Hunters.
Game Warden Charles Reinardy is
living the strenuous life these days,
and keeping his eye on the rabbit
hunters is keeping the Warden decid-
eddy busy.
Sunday the country was simply over
run with rabbit hunters, and the Game
Warden started out to see that all the
hunters had the licenses required by
law. He was out near O'Neil's Cor
ners when he saw about twenty of the
hunters in single field. The boys
decided to have some fun at the ex-
pense of the Warden, and when he ap-
preached two of the number started to
run off. The Warden gave chase and
the chase continued fully fifteen min
utes. When the men were finally cap
tured both of them displayed regular
hunting licenses. All day long the
chase after hunters kept up, but no ar
rests we're made and it seems that the
Kenosha hunters are keeping pretty
well within the provisions of the law.
