BLACKBERRY SEASON.
Crop Large and Berries Command
Ready Sale.

The blackberry crop in this sec.
ton is the largest for years. The
crop in this county Will probably
amount to 100000 gallons, fully half
of which will go to waste. The ber-.
ries are now selling at IS cents per
gallon and command a ready sale.
The crop last year was a failure
and the year before it was very
light.

SHEETS OF GOLD
Secured by Burglar Who Robbed
Dental Office.

DR., E. N. Fruits dental Office
was entered by a burglar some
time between Saturday evening and
Monday morning and about SIS
worth of gold was taken. The
thief used a skeleton key in gaining
an entrance and left no clue as to
his identity. Besides the sheet
gold taken, several parcelain
crowns were carried off. Three
dental Offices in Henderson were
robbed in a like manner one night
this week and it is likely that the
same party who robbed DR.. Fruit
did all of the work there also.

County Agent Gonnerman Resents
Attempt OF Danish Government TO
Land Paupers in Kenosha.
STEAMSHIP LINES CRITICISED.
I'll. G. Anderson Almost Dead With Con-
sumption and Without Funds Is Brought
From Denmark to Kenosha.

County Agent Gonnerman wearieG
with the attempts of foreign govern
ments to ship sick and disabled people
on the city and county of Kenosha,
wrote letter to one of the Danish
lines of steamships demanding that
the managers of the line at once pro.
vide the necessary transportation for
Fl. c. Anderson to return to Denmark
the land of his birth.
Three weeks ago last Sunday Ander
son was landed in this country and he
was at that time in the last stages oil
consumption. He came at once to Re
nosha and has been staying with an
aunt, Mrs. Morrison. For a few days
he attempted to work in the Chicago.
Rockford hosiery, but in few days ii
became evident that he was not a BILE
to stand the work required and he was
ordered 10 leave the factory, the fore
man fearing that he would fall at his
bench. It now deyelopes that Ander-
son has been a sufferer from consump.
ton for some time, and it is thought
that he was shipped here from Den.
mark in order to saddle the care of his
long illness on to this city.
Several times in the past paupers
have been sent by foreign countries to
Kenosha and short time ago there
was one person receiving aid from the
city who should have been cared for by
Germany. Vo1uminous correspondence
was engaged in between the two coun-
tries, but the Kenosha council was
forced to bear the brunt of the expense
of caring for the boy.
Agent Gonnerman does not propose
to be imposed upon in this manner and
he will insist that Anderson not only
be sent back to Denmark, but also that
the immigration officers look into the
case, and if possible have the steam
ship company called up for violatin g
the laws in regard to the bringing of
immigrants into this.country who are
not sound in body.
It is not known how Anderson man
aged to pass the inspection of officials
at Copenhagen and New York. It is
probable that he slipped through the
New York Office and that the inspec-
tors in hisAnative land winked at his
infirmity and gave him glad passport
to new country.
Should the man remain in this
county and become care on the tax
payers of the county it is probable
that large sum would be required to
pay for his board and treatment.

DAHLIA TO BE LET OUT.
New Lighthouse Tender Soon to Supply |
Lake Michigan Station.

Lighthouses on Lake Michigan, long
cared for by the steamera Dahlia, will
after June Is be attended to by a new
steamer. The vessel, which will be
named the Sumac, is nearing compile
ton at the yards of the lighthouse
board at Port Richmond, N. Y, and
will be sent to Lake Michigan as soon
as fitted for service.
The new boat, which is 100 feet long
and 80 feet beam, will cost when COM
p1eted $125,O0O. She will be fitted with
large oil and gas tanks and will be
capable of long cruises.
On arrival of the Sumac, it is said
the Dahlia, which has been the light
house tender on Lake Michigan since
the ninth lighthouse district was es-
tablished in 1887, will be given head
quarters at Milwaukee or some north
ern port and will assist the Sumac in
duty on Lake Michigan. The Dahlia
was britt at Philadelphia for the light
house board in 1874.
Because of his long experience on
Lake Michigan as comman der of the
Dah1ia Capt. G. Fl. Hubbard will be
transferred to the Sumac. His sue
cessor on the Dahlia's bridge has not
been named.

Fred W. ReinoId Heads the Police
Force, and lanes $. Barr the
Fire Department.
COMMISSION COMPLETES ITS WORK
Michael Sullivan and John Leik Named as
Members of the Police Force to Suc-
ceedaRetiring Members

The board of Fire and Police com
missioners met at the Office Of Secre-
| tary A. E. Buckmaster Thursday af-
ternoon and evening, and after four
hours of work omp1eted the work Of
naming the police force for the year.
Chief Of Police Fred w. Reinold, was
renamed for another term by the com
mission after he had passed the exam
nation. There were several applica-
tons for the position of Chief, but as
Mr.. Reinold has made splendid
record in the Office the commissioners
decided they could do no better than
leave him at the head of the depart
ment for another year at least. During
the FIVE months that Mr.. Reinold has
been at the head of the department he
has done much to improve the force
and he has more than any other man
insisted on strict discipline among
the men. He is courageous and eff
cient official, always ready to do his
duty, and the city is to be congratu-
lated on his appointment.
James S. Barr as Chief Of the Fire de-
partment. Mr.. Barr has been so
closely connected with the fire depart
n1ent for the past fifteen years that
the wisdom of the commission in re-
tanning him is apparent. Under his
direction Kenosha has secured one Of
the finest departments in the west and
the future is assured with him at the
head of the department.. !.
To complete the list of seven police
officers the commission has named
Michael Sullivan and John Leik.
Officer Leik is now member of the
force and Officer Sullivan is not new
to police duties. He was a member of
the force for two years and always
proved himself caretu1Eand conscien-
tious man.
There will be an eighth officer named
from the list of applications now on
file with the commission, but this will
not be doEe for several weeks. The
force now consists of Officers Stevens,
Pabst, Hansen Newhouse, Wade, Leik
and Sullivan. The force 'will be re-
organized as soons as the men have
passed the medical examinations.
The salaries of the officers have not
as yet been fixed by the council, but
the officers will probably receive sixty
dollars month and the salary of the
chief of the department will BE fixed
at nine hundred or a thousand dollars
a year.
It is understood that all the men APP
pointed to be members of the police
force are appointed on two months
probation, and should they prove un-
satisfactory, any or all of them may
be let out at the end of this period.

AS AN illustration of how the mix
up on the Primary Election bill is re-

from the Chicago Inter.Ocean may be
of interest:
SIN the neighboring state of Wis
consin the "direct primary reform
has been agitated for four years. Now
those who oppose the measure are will
ling to adopt it completely, provided
only the people are given chance te
say directly at the polls whether they
want it or not. But the "direct pri.

to the people, and insist upon giving
them the "direct primary" whether
they want it or not. "-Chicago Inter

WHEN the members Of the Board of
Education are once elected they are
supposed to put aside all considera-
tons of petty partisan politics as far
as possible, and work together for the
greatest good of the public schools, in
which it may be remarked in passing,
all parties and all citizens are equally
interested. 1t is unfortunate that po-
litica1 considera lions should enter into
the choice of the members at all. How
ever, the mem bers are supposed to
drop politics after the election and to
serve on the Board with the single
purpose of doing their best for the
schools, and not for the purpose Of
getting what they can out of it for
themselves or their party. Possibly
Prof. Jacoby had this view of his
duties and spousibiiities in mind
when he made up his committees for
the coming year; but on looking over
the list of the committees sent out to
the Board one may be permitted to
doubt it. The Board is equally di-
yided politically eight Democrats and
eight Republicans, and nobody will
deuy that the Republican members are
fully as capable as the Democratic
Doubtless keeping this fact in mind,
the Professor, with that rare sense OF
fairness and Justice which is one of his
most distinguishing characteristics
refused to take any unfair advantage
of his official position as President OF
the Board, and only put eight of the
nine committees absolutely in the
hands of the Democrats. Think of his
forbearance. He might just as well
have made it nine straight Further
more, with a delicate appreciation OF
his own abilities, the Professor re
Trained from making himself Chair
man of all the committees, and only
took two of the most important fol
himself. Could anything fairer be ex
pected of him, except, perhaps, ar
equal division of the places on the
committees between all the member:
of the Board, so that the Board woult
have every inducement to work to
gether in harmony.
