Matilda M. Boucher of this place tells
how she found friend in the, follow
ing words:
For years l suffered with a dizzi-
ness in my head and could get nothing
to cure me till about two years ago
when I was advised to take Dodd's
Kidney Pills. These pills cured me
before I had used the whole of the
first box, and l haven't been troubled
since.
I'm January of this year 1 had an
attack Of Sciatica that made me almost

Dodd's Kidney PHYS had done for me
before, sent and got some and began
to take them at once.
In three weeks l was WE'LL and not

TOOK THE WRONG HOUSE.

Two Waukegan Youths Attempt to Enter
Jail and Get Themselves Behind Bars.
Two Waukegau sports who gave
their names as Frank O'Lander and
Charles Thompson are in the county
Jail waiting trial on charge OF dis
orderly conduct. The two men came
into Kenosha last night and this morn
ing they started out TO force some OF
the good housewives of the city to pro
vide them with a breakfast. They
were not acquainted with the city to
such an extent as they might have
been or they probably would not have
landed in jail. AS hard luck would
have it. the first place the men struck
was the county Jail, and when the
maid in charge of the kitchen refused
TO give them something to eat, the two
men became abusive.
1t took Chris Jensen, the assistant
turnkey, about FIVE seconds to get
out into the kitchen and to inform the
men that they were under arrest. One
of them attempted to put up fight,
but being from Waukegan, his spirit
was easily broken and he was landed
in jail The men will be given a
chance to settle with Justice Sturges
late this afternoon.

Police and Fire Commission Set Down
New Regulations for the Men,
bers OF the Police Force.
SALOONS MUST CLOSE ON TIME.
New Rules Will Demand That the, Police
Strictly Enforce the Laws of Closing
the Saloons In Kenosha.

The new rules for the government of
the police of the city as ordained by
the board of fire and police commits
sioners were sent to the chief Monday
and the officers were given copies of
them Monday evening. The enforce
ment of the rules will mark a new re-
gime in police regulations in Kenosha
and the police officers will be forced to
guard their actions we'll if they expect
to hold positions under the commits.
sion.
Incidently the new rules will be of
great interest to the keepers of saloon
in the city as they demand that the
officers shall stringently enforce some
reg ulations for governing the manage
ment of grog shops. The rules pro-
vide that all saloons in the CITY shall
be closed at eleven O'Clock every night
in the week except Saturday and Sun
day and on Saturday the doors and
bars are to be closed at eleven thirty.
The police are ordered to enforce this
rule to the very letter and if auv all
night saloons are discovered the police
must arrest and prosecute the owners
of the saloons for every offense. In
regard to Sunday the rules provide that
the police shall see to it that every sa-
loon in the city is closed during the
entire morning and no liquor will be
sold IN the city until after the noon
hour. The saloons must be closed
front and back door at eight O'Clock
Sunday evening.
These laws for the governing of the
saloons will fall with heavy weight
on the saloon men as for the last few
months they have been keeping open
practically all day Sunday without
molestation. The new laws for sa-
looms are to be enforced after tonight
and the saloon men will be given no
further warning. Now that the police
officers are out of politics these regula-
tons will probably be enforced to the
very letter.
The rules also order the police to see
to 1T that every gambling house of any
nature now existing in the city and
every house Of prostitution be closed
at once, The selling of liquor to
minors and black listed people is made
a special order in the rules and the 90.
lice are ordered to proceed at once
against any saloon men guilty of these
crimes.
The rules also order the police to see
that the city is kept neat and clean.
that health laws are enforced as far as
possible, that strangers are treated
with courtesy and that the best inter
ests of the citizens be ever in the mind
of the officer when attending to his
duties.
The officers are ordered to wear the
regulation uniform of blue and to keep
themselves neatly dressed at all times.
They will not be allowed to loiter on
the street-but must keep going.
They must not allow crowds to collect
at any point on the beat and must not
under any circumstances touch liquors
of any kind while on duty or while in
uniform.
Officers will not be allowed to enter
saloons unless Oh official business.
The new rules have made quite Juror
among the members of the force but
the men have signified their willing
ness to obey them.

Chicago'Rockford Hosiery Works and
7. B. Jeffery Company Make Con-
cessiOns to Laborers.
INDUSTRIAL BALL CLUB LEAGUE
Steps Now Being Taken to Form the New
League-Two Already In Field.-SOme
Good Sport Promised.

The factory workers of Kenosha are
making new effort to secure the Sat-
urday afternoon holiday and already
two of the factories have made the
concession to labor.
The Chicago-Rockford Hosiery Com
pany originated the plan in Kenosha,
and the managers of the plant will
release their help next Saturday at
noon. The Thomas B. Jeffrey Com
pany has followed suit and yesterday
notice was posted to that effect at
the works.
AT both plants the workmen are al
lowed to get in the full weeks work by
starting work earlier in the morning
and working quarter of an hour after
six O'Clock in the evening. At both
plants the rule effects all departments
including the Office force.
The workers are now seeking to
make the half holiday on Saturday

the managers have expressed them

Saturday is to be made a day dis
tinctly for the laborers and in order to
provide some sport for the day move
ment has been started to organize an
Industrial Base Ball League similar to
the one formed last year. The Jeffrey
Company has taken the lead in the
base ball league and has already or
ganized team to represent the factory
in the league. The team which rep
resented the Hosiery Works last year,
is now being recognized and other
teams will be in the field as soon as
the formal organization of the league
is completed.
A call will be sent out this week for
the regular organization of the league.
Most of the games will be arranged
for Saturday afternoon if the half
holiday is made general throughout
the city.
There are many good players out
side of the league team, and several
teams could be brought together,
which would give the Kenosha Inter
State team a hard rub.

Dirty Linen of the Big City is Brought
to Kenosha on Account OF Strike
in Chicago Laundries.
RUSE OF HOTEL MEN WINS OUT.
Soiled Linen is Sent to Kenosha ON Tug
Boat, ard In This Manner Local Laun-
dries Consent to Wash it.

Kenosha is this week acting the part
of a wash lady for the city of Chicago
and it is stated that quite little of the
laundry of the great city is being sent
here togo through the managers of the
Kenosha laundries. This is all caused
by the strike among the laundry work
ers in Chicago and it is more than
possible that the strike will continue
for several weeks and that if Chicago
keeps clean her work will have to be
done in other cities.
The blow is falling very heavily
upon the hotels and cafes in the city
and these places have found it impos-
sible to get clean linen for their ables
and beds. The work Of the Sherman
House is being done in Racine, while
one of the largest hotels had a repre-
sentative in Kenosha today seeking to
have the local 1aundries do the work
for his house. The managers of the
Kenosha laundries have been unwil1-
ing to mix IN the labor troubles and
for this reason most Of the work has
been refused, but a clever scheme was
worked in this city whereby one of the
Chicago hotels managed to get large
amount Of dirty linen washed and
ironed.
A few days ago small tug boat
came up to the docks in the Kenosha
harbor and tied up for the night. She
didn't seem to have any particular
business here but the owner of her at
once went to one of the laundries and
asked the proprietor if he would do
some work for the boat. The proprie-
tor went down to the boat to get the
package expecting small assortment
of shirts and collars with possibly a
towel or two, but he was greatly sur
prised to find that the boat was practi-
cally loaded with soiled linen. A
wagon load of it was hauled to the
laundry and as soon as possible it was
turned out and when the boat put out of
the harbor on the following day it was
ag ain loaded with linen nicely cleaned
and carried back to Chicago.
The laborers of Kenosha have made
no objections to Chicago work being
done in this city but some of The laun-
dry men are little slow to take any of
the work and if any more is brought in
it will possibly cause trouble among
the laboring classes in the laundries.
The Chicago laundry workers have
sent out an appeal urging the workers
in smaller cities to refuse to do the
work and it is possible that some &C.
ton will be taken by local laundry
workers to. prevent the work being
done here.
Most Of the Kenosha laundries are so
busy that it is practically impossible
for them to undertake the work any
way and for this reason it will have to
be sent on to Racine or more northern
cities.
The Chicago hotels are Offering the
highest prices for the work and it is a
great temptation for the Kenosha
laundrymen.

FIRE IN ENGINE FACTORY.
Blaze In Plant of Arnold Engine Co. Calls
Out Department This Morning.

Out Department This Morning.
At half past six O'Clock this morn
ing the fire Departmental called out
to subdue small blaze in she plant of
the Arnold Engine Company on Park
street. The fire originated in the
main room of the factory and had
spread to the wooden ceiling of the
room and threatened to destroy the en-
tire building. The prompt arrival of
the firemen and a rapid rse of the
chemical made it possible to extin-
guish the flames.
The fire is supposed to have origi-
mated from spark from forge which
had been used in the plant Tuesday
night, and it is supposed that the
flames we're smouldering for some
time before the blaze was discovered.
The loss from the fire will amount to
about a hundred dollars, and is en-
tirely covered by insurance.
There was no damage to the ma
chinery in the building, the flames
being stopped before they reached the
floor of the building. The damage
done by the fire will be repaired at
once.
