FAIR" TO ENLARGE AGAIN.
Managers of Main Street Department Store
to Make 1t the Largest in Kenosha.

4
to Make 1t the Largest in Kenosha.
The managers Of "The Fair" are
planning to build up great nercan-
tile house in Kenosha, and this morn
ing 1t was announced that a deal has
been made whereby the company will
take ten years lease on the two
buildings owned by c. Fl. Gonnermann
and the J. Fl. Kimball estate, at the
corner Of Main and Wisconsin streets.
For some time the company has had
the entire Gonnermann building, but
the addition of the upper floor Of the
Kimball building will give the added
floor space to the extent Of several
hundred square feet. The rooms now
occupied by the Kenosha Union will
be vacated ia the near future, and at
that time the extensive repairs of the
building will be started. 1t is the plan
of Manager Gottleib to make the Fair
the finest storein Southern Wisconsin.
The old stairway will be taken out and
the two buildings will be brought to-
gether, forming the largest store in
the city. One main entrance will be
arranged in the center of the building,
and the entire front will be of plate
glass.
The upper floor will also be thrown
together, SO that the whole will be in
single room. and it will be connected
with the lower floor by an elevator and
an interior stairway. The inside of
the store rooms will be re-decorated
and fitted out with all the modern con-
veniences known to the mercantile
trade, and everything will be done to
add to the comfort of the patrons of
the big industry.
For some time the company has been
making an effort to secure control of
the buildings between the High Art''
and the Fair stores, but this has
been abandoned, as it was impossible
to purchase the buildings.
With the addition of large amount
of store space the management Of the
Fair is planning to add many new
| lines of business, and 1t will become
the most complete department store
between Milwaukee and Chicago. The
stocks carried will be similar to those
handled by the Chicago and Milwaukee
department stores.
Most Of the improvements will be
done by the managers Of the store, so
ii is apparent that they are planning
to make the store great institution
within the next ten years.
The work of repairing and remodel
ing will be started within the next few
days, and it is expected that the new
part will be ready for occupancy by
the opening Of winter.

Night Providers Of Pioneer Days Men.
ace Safety OF FIOcks in the Town
of Bristol.
FARMERS LOOK FOR BIG B0UNTIES
Several Gray Wolves Have Been Seen About
the Town and Many Lambs and
Sheep Have Been Destroyed.

Bristol is planning to go hun ting
and 1t is expected that the results of
the hunt will be rather remunerative.
Heccntly it has been discovered that a
pack of wolves is infesting the coun-
try about the village and the farmers
are organizing for a grand roundup
which will put an end to the species in
this section Of the state and which will
incidentally protect the farmers flock
from further depreciation. The cry of
''wolf!" s'wolf!" has not been heard
IN Kenosha county In many day but it
is claimed that the animals are getting
numerous in Bristol and that they have
become SO daring that almost nightly
one of them steals into the yards of
the farmers and carries off fat lamb.
For time the farmers had been blam-
ing the killing Of the lambs to the dogs
in the the town and the CANNES suffer
ing under the false accusation had
been ruth1essly butchered. The dis
covery of the martyrdotn of the
CANNES was made few days ago when
in the town, noticed large gray wolf
standing on the TOP of a straw pile
looking over the country and survey
ing with evident pleasure the fat fiocks
grazing on the hills and ia the.valleys.
Blackman left the big fellow undis.
turbed, calmly licking his chops while
he went to the house of neighbor
and secured aid and shot gun and
hen he returned to the straw pile
But the wolf was not to be caught nap
ping and when the farmer retus ned he
had managed to reached a place OF
s;lfety. 1t is claimed that no less thar
half dozen of the wolves have beer
seen in the town during the last
mouth. They are of two varieties
the prairie wolf and the gray wolf
Both varieties were in pioneer day:
very plentiful in the county but none
of them hal been seen in many years
until recently.
Should the farmers manage to roun6
up the pack the hunting expedition
will be a paying one as each wolf kill
ed is worth twenty-five dollars to the
man making the slaughter. Three
bounties are offered for the killing OF
wolves. The county offers a bounty
of ten dollars each, the town of Bristol
similar one and thestat will pay The
executioner five dollars.
The damage done by the wolves to
f1ocks in the town of Bristol is said to
have been considerable and many
lambs have been killed. F. r. Snyder
and Fred Blackman have been the
heaviest losers from the ravages Of the
animals.

PETER TILLEMANs DEAD.
Body Servant OF Col. Howe Ia the war Of
the Rebellion Expires at His Homo.

-S 800 Se~AAe "a OOAe AAUW6 All the VIA or
the Rebellion Expires at His Home.
"Uncle' Peter Tillemans, body ser
want of Captain Meade and Colonel
james H. Howe during the war Of the
REBELLION, and one of the unique char
acters of the city, died at his home at
the foot of Main street Monday after
noon shortly after 3 O'Clock, after a
long illness. The deceased had been
III for many months, and had been
confned 10 his bed for the past two
weeks.
Peter Tillemans was a native of Hol-
land, having been born near the CITY
of Rotterdam on March III, 1923 He
came to America in 1852 and settled at
Green Bay, and was once employed
by Col. Howe. In after years he took
part in many of the stirring incidents
of the war, in which the 32nd Wiscon-
sin Infantry participated.
AT the time OF the breaking out of
the war "Uncle Peter" was working
for Col. Howe, but Capt. Meade who
was also a resident of Green Bay.
gathered a regiment together and he
was made the captain of it. This regi-
ment afterward became a part of the
forces under Col. Howe, who, when he
found that his body servant was not all
that was desired, took Tillemans from
the service of Capt. Meade and con-
tinued him in his service to the time of
the Co1onel's death. As the servant
of Col. Howe "Uncle Peter" remained
with the army until Col. Howe was
mustered out IN 1865, and at that time
the Colonel presented his servant with
his horse and saddle. With this as
meinento, 'sUncle Peter" returned to
Keuosha, and has since resided here.
For many years he had been grow
ing ;rirm, and during these years he
had served the late Edward Balm and
| z. G.. Simmons. He was such a pa
tient and gentle old man that he be-
came favorite with all who knew
him.
During his last illness his friends
have taken every possible care of him,
and the best doctors that could be Sc.
cured have attended him. His death
resulted from asthma, which he con-
tracted while in the south during the
war.
At the time of his death Col. Howe
added codicil to his will in which he
made arrangements that the faithful
services of "Uncle Peter" shoald be
rewarded, and under the orders of Col.
| Howe the remains will be buried at the
expense of the Howe estate.

Young Children No Longer 10 Be Al.
lowed 10 WCrk in the Factories
During Vacation.
FACTORIES Mk BE EMBARRASSED
Judge sIosson Formally Announced Tna'
He VIII Issue No Permits to Children
For Factory Work.

Three hundred children between the
ages of twelve and sixteen years who
are now occupying places ia the yari-
ous factories in Kenosha may be forc-
ed to stop work during the next two or
three weeks, as Judge Slosson has
decided TO enforce to the letter the new
law ia regard to child labor ia Wiscon-
sin factories. 1t is possible that the
law can not be made to read the little
fellows now at work out Of employ
ment. but it is certain that ia the
future no child in Kenosha under the
age Of fourteen years will be allowed
to work in any factory.
For years Judge Slosson has been
besieged with applicants Of tender age
who decided to work in the factories.
The Judge used a great deal OF COM
mon sense about the matter and allow
ed the children to work only ia ex-
treme cases, but the new law has come
10 his assistance, and from now on it
will be impossible for any child under
the age of fourteen to accept position
in anv factory in Kenosha. The school
houses will be closed this week and
hundreds of brothers and fathers IN
the city will make an effort to force
the little children to spend the vaca-
tons in the factories contributing to
the general wealth of the families, but
this will not be permitted as no per-
mits will be issued to these children
under any circumstances.
The law in the matter is most plain
and it gives the court no latitude in
the matter. 1t provides that children
between the ages of twelve and four
teen may be employed in stores or at
some very light work during the
months Of the summer vacation, but
they may not be employed IN the
factories even during this period.
Children between the ages OF four
teen and sixteen may work in the
factories during the vacation months
only on the securing of a permit from
the Judge of the court. This law will
be also applied to children working ia
bowling alleys, saloons, hotels and ia
fact ali places where children are
employed.
The court has been relieved Of a
great deal of responsibility by the
passage of the law, and in The future
it will be unnecessary for parents 70
apply for permits for the children.
The operation Of the law IN kenosha
will throw many children out Of en-
ployment, and it is possible that it will
in way. cripple some of the factories.
Several of the factories depend largely
on child labor for some of their depart
ments, and these will be revolu-
tionized by the employment of adult
help.

CAUSED GREAT EXCITEMENT
Efforts of Two Boys to Stick Knife Into
Italian Nearly Cause a Riot.

Excitement a plenty prevailed on
Main street Monday right when twas
reported that Charles Pacini, the
Italian merchant who keeps a store
Just north of the Kupfer barn, had been
stabbed by two boys named Kraai and
Johnson.
The report proved to be false as the
man was not injured in any way. The
two men accused of assaulting Pacini
had gone to the store to get some soft
drinks and Pacini, alleging that the
boys were drunk, refused to serve
them. It is then claimed that one of
the boys made for Pacini with 4 small
knife and attempted to stab him. The
blade of the knife passed through the
coat of Pacini but did not reach the
flesh. Pacini's friends hurried to the
store but before general melee could
be precipitated the two men who had
been accused Of assailing him had dis
appeared. No arrests were made in
the case.

DR.. LoRENz AT MILWAUKEE,.
His Method One That's PractIced by Osteo
phic Physicians in This. Country.

His Method One That's PractIced by Osteo :
phic Physicians in This. Country
That manipulative treatment is rec
ognized as one of the most prominent
advances in medical science, was evil
denced by the fact that, about Eve hum
dred physicians of all schools of prac-
tice assem- b1ed at Trinity hospital in
Milwaukee Saturday afternoon to witt
ness the operations by DR.. Adolph Lo-
REM, the Vienna surgeon, who was
called to this country to operate on the
little daughter of P. d. Armour.
The method of treatment used by
DR.. Lorenz is practically the same is
is used by Osteopat1s, and differs only
IN the fact that the Lorenz method is
to forcib1y stretch the tissues without
regard for their natural elasticity;
while the Osteopath works to stretch
the tissues gradually, aiding, rather
than interfering with nature, until
such time as the parts to be operated
upon would respond without the posi-
bility of injury.
either operation for hip-dislocatioD OF
for club foot is the use of the plaster
cast after operation to hold the parts
in the right relationship with each
other.
There were FIVE cases treated Satnr-
day afternoon, three for dislocation of
hip and two for club foot. The cor
rection of the deformity known as
club foot was very interesting, and two
little children who had formerly been
compelled to walk on their ankles were
sent home with the foot Strengthened
but surrounded by plaster cast. This
cast will be left on for about three or
foot that was once bent over on its
side will be as straight and Hat-footed
as its mate, and nature will aid to
make it sound and firm and strong.
The advantage of this manipulative
treatment is shown by the fact that
not only young children are cured by
this method but adults as well, man
forty-fve years old having recently
been treated in this way with good
results.
One is very favorab1y impressed
with DR.. Lorenz as physician, and as
man. The adverse criticisms that he
has received IN certain parts of this
country are really unjust; his sympa-
thetic nature, his humble and gener-
Gus spirit, and his modest manner in
dictate characteristics that should be
greatly admired.
Now that manipulative method of
treatment has worked its way to the
front, the future of this system can
hardly be imagined. Parents with de-
formed children should not hesitate to
seek to relieve the little ones by this
simple and harmless method.

SERVICES FOR CHILDREN.
Members of Congregational Church CeIe
brate Children's Day on Sunday.


Children day, observed yesterday at
the Congregational church was an
event which will long lie remembered
BY old and young. The services and
exercises were of an entirely new and
delightful character, carried out
wholly by the young people. The pro-
cessional was beautifully executed and
the chorus and solo renditions showed
a high degree Of talent and training.
The illustrated talk by Rev. Farrill
in the morning, was lesson for young
and old, and was very effective. The
sclos by Ralph Curtis, Lawrence Bald
win, Emil Risch, aud Ben Buckmaster,
we're very pleasing.
Much credit is due Mr.. and Mrs.
Farrill for their skil1ful direction of
the choruses and their careful aud
happy arrangement Of the entire pro-
gram. 1t is safe to say that the ex-
ercises we're the finest ever given in
the chruch on similar occasion.

Democratic Members and superintendent
Declare Adjourned Meeting OF.
The adjourned meeting of the Board
of Education which was scheduled to
be held Monday night, failed to take
place, for during the afternoon Super
intendent Baker telephoned the Re-
publican members of the Board that
the Democratic majority, which is
firmly in the saddle, had decided not
to hold meeting at that time. No
reason was given for the calling of
the meeting off, and several of the Re-
publican members Of the Board wenk
to The school house to attend it.
The notice was sent out by Superin-
tendept Baker, who simply stated that
none oe the Democrats nor himself
would attend the meeting, and for that
reason it would be impossible for the
Board to meet. as no quorum would be
present. At least majority of the
Democratic members of the Board were
in the city at the time, and there could
be no excus. for the further adjourn
ment of the meeting except the fact
that the Democrats would not have a
majority at the meeting.

Marriage Of Caroline Bradford and Charles

Marriage of Caroline Bradford and Charles
3. Tyndall is UnavoidabIy Postponed.
The fact that train was few
minutes late Saturday prevented the
marriage of Miss Caroline Bradford
and Charles Tyndall, two we'll known
young people of the town of Bristol.
The couple had planned to elope to
Chicago and be. married during the
afternoon, but the mother of Miss
Bradford, who had been opposed to the
marriage, reached kChicago in time to
stop the wedding.
Miss Bradford had left her home IN
the morning, and had gone to Keno
sha to visit friends. She was followed
by Tyndall, and the two took train
to Chicago. In the meantime the
mother of Miss Bradford had been adj
gvisedCf the fact, and securing horse,
drove from Bristol to Camp Lake to
take train on the Wisconsin Central
road. A few minutes delay Of the train
made it possible for her to recch the
station in Chicago to stop the clippers.
AT first Miss Bradford insisted on
going on with the wedding, but when
the mother threatened to turn the
couple over to the police, the young
woman relented, and she consented to
retrr her home.
It is said that her parents today
agreed to withdraw all opposition to
the match, and the wedding will take
place at the home Of the bride next
week.

A SITE FOR THE HOSPITAL.

Mr.. Editor:-Permit me to express
in your columns, the practical views OF
several interested citizens as suggest.
ed to me. The city had a piece of land
presented to ii for public benevolent
purposes, which fronts on Ridge and
Garden streets, and is now being used
by the Y. M. G. A., for outdoor ath-
letics. What more desirable To-
cation can be found? Moreover a
hospital needs fresh air and a great
plenty of it, and requires site where
wings and additions can be built. AS
the growth of city like Kenosha de-
mands. No need going far to have
this proven. Take Racine's hospital
instance, and as NC need a hospital
why not put up hospital right at the
start.
Take the $1,000 spoken of in purchas-
ing site, and the $4,000 for remodel
ing, which, generally speaking, means
$1,000, and you have the money to put
up splendid main building for a
hospital, with plenty Of room for
additions.
