Last week marked the close OF lust two

important feature OF the weeks play was
the work OF the Gate City team I'm taking
lhve games out OF six from the Germans.
The postponed series was played on, as
we'll as the regular meeting OF the sched-

the Gate City men considerably. Mean
while the Omahas took but two out OF their
three games with the Nationals, and thus
dropped a little I'm percentage. Thus there
is one team somewhere within striking dis

a long journey yet to a tie, The Nationals
and the Clarksons were a tie for third
place last week. but this time the Nationals
lost, while their rivals won. and took the
position, the two being now separated by
some forty-seven points OF percentage. The
rest OF the teams are strung out the same
as before. The Westerns and krug Parks
are still a tie for last place. each having
dropped all three games of the weeks
series. In the individual averages thirty

BRA1N-FoOD NONSENSE.

Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most competent
authorities. They have dispe1led the
silly notion that one kind of food is
needed for brain, another,for muscles,
and stillsanother for bones. A correct
diet will not only nourish a particular
part of the body, but it will sustain
every other part. Yet, however good
your food may be, nutriment is de-
stroyed by indigestion or dyspepsia.
You must prepare for their appearance
or prevent their coming by taking
regular doses Of GREEN'S August
Flower, the favorite medicine of the
healthy millions. A few doses aids
digestion, stimulates the liver to
healthy action, purifes the blood, and
makes you feel tuoyant and vigorous.
You can get this reliable remedy at

L. Trenary and the Grace English
Lutheran church asking for rebates of
taxes refused to take any action in the
matter and the petitioners were ordered
to take the matter up with the
Board of Review and if they failed to
secure satisfaction there to take the
matter to the circuit court. There
seems to be,no law which covers the
rebates of these taxes and the Council
committee was unwilling to take up
the matter on their own respon sibilitY.
The petition of The police for an in
crease in pay was mot reported on by
the finance committee and the request
will probably be indefinitely pigeon
holed. The City Committee and City
Treasurer were ordered to settle at once
the judgment of the suit of Anna M.

ton for the settlement of the Judgment
was made at the last levy of taxes.

at several boxes of cigars which til >

customary.
That's the way women beat the
jokesmiths," said the salesman when
the woman mad gone out. You don t
see so many jokes nowadays about
women giving their husbands and
beaus bad cigars Well, that's because
they get samples, just as they do in
buying silks and ribbons, and try them
on their men folks. The he in this

THE tradition that St. Peter had been
bishop of Rome for twenty-five years
was the origin of the saying addressed
to succeeding popes on the accession,
"Thou shalt not see the years of
Peter" prediction falsifed by the
reign of the present pontiff, Leo XIII,
the twenty-ffth anniversary of whose
accession TO the papa1 throne is being
lebrated by all Christendom today,
and that of his immediate predecessor,
Plus TX, whose pontidcate lasted for
thirty-one years and seven months.
The present pope, Leo XIII, is one of
the most liberal and broad minded of
all the 255 successors of st. Peter and
the marvellous advances that his church
has made during the last quarter CEN
fury in America is due in no small de-
gree to his tact and diplomacy and to
his ability to comprehend the institu-
tons of this country.

Life Insurance.

David City, Neb., March 4. = The
jury in the Lille murder case yester-
day afternoon brought in a verdict of
guilty and fixed the punishment at i'm
,prisonment for life. Mrs. Lena L. Lii

NEXT MONDAY NIGHT
Is the Date of David Harum's" Appear
ance at the Rhode.

ID JIG DaG0 O1 OAV1O hdEuhS b appear
ance at the Rhode.
1t will please any number of people
to know that Julius Calm will present
"David Harum' at the Rhode opera
house next Monday evening. Since
its production, the dramatizatior made
of Westcott's exceedingly popular book
by r. and M. w. Hitchcock has had an
overlooking measure of success. Dur
ing the sixteen weeks it was given in
New York it packed the Garrick
Theatre to the doors at every perform
ance. So great was the desire to see it
that it was found necessary to give
special matinees to accommodate the
public. In giving the play here the
production seen in New York will be
utilized. The story is divided into
three acts and all of the scenes are
laid in Homevill, N. Y. The first act
is an exterior scene and in it Harum
sells the bay "hoss" to Deacon Per-
kins. The second act is laid in the
bank, and the third in Aunt Polly's
sitting room on Christmas morning.
Most of the characters made familiar
by the book are in the play and so are
all the bright lines and quaint sayings.
To lovers of the book the adaptation Of
it's very satisfying. In Mr.. Turner
they find an ideal Harum and the ac-
tors portrayal of the character is re-
plete with artistic skill. Everything
about the work has been and is in
skilled hands. Throughout the coun-
try the play has known phenomenal
success. The Chicago engagement,
which lasted six weeks. was extraor-
binary in the matter of its receipts,
and the one in Boston, which lasted
nearly two months, was a record
breaker in that regard. Every one
who read the book will undoubtedly
want to see the play taken from it and
large audience will surely be present
at its presentation to see Harum' and
his neighbors in the life.

incorporated or not. He adds: "This
would put an effectua1 stop to all at
tempts to reap a harvest by inveigling
the unwary into contracts which sell
dom, if ever, can be fulfilled by the
company"
The number of Building and
Loan associations is fifty.five,
an increase of five during the last
year. Two old associations have liqui-
dated and gone out of business and
seven new ones have been organized.
The new associations are located at
Amigo, Ashland, Chippewa Falls, Ke-

Superior. The defunct associations
were the Loan, Savings & Building,
of GAINESVILLE, and the Whitewater
Mutual Building & Loan, of White
water.
Tables of figures are given to show
that there has been an increase in all
the items, such as loans on mortgages
and on pass books, in which an in
crease usually indicates a healthy
growth, and that there has been de-

Northern Cities Seek to Secure the
Removal OF Two FIcurishing In
dustries Now in KenOsha.
GREAT INDUCEMENTS OFFERED.
Manufacturers Claim That Heavy Taxation
Has Made 1t Hard for Industries to
Thrive. None Likely to Move.

"kenosha will have a fight on her
hands during the next six months to
retain the industries now located in
the city, for cities in northern Wiscon-
sin and Illinois have begun to make
propositions to the factories here and
these propositions are of such a rosy
nature that Kenosha will have to do
something to meet them"
This statement was made by one of
the pest known manufacturers in the
city last night and although he re-
fused to allow his name to be used in
connection with the story, ne stated
that he was assured that Kenosha was
in danger of losing two of its most
paying industrial institutions. The
city OF Nacedah, with atpopulation far
below that of Kenosha, has had the
audacity to boldly put in bid for the
removal OF kenosha factory, employ
ing from a hundred ito two hundred
meu.
Ia order to secure the move the city
OF Nacedah has offered to give the fac
tory site, to pay its moving expenses,
to furnish free water and to give free
taxes for period of FIVE years, The
other proposition.which has been made
oy an Illinoislscity is almost ssas allur-
ing one and both are being considered
oy the factories in question. AS vet
neither of the factories has decided to
pull up stakes and leave the city but it
is possible that such a decision NAV be
made in the near future,
One of the manufacturers in speak
ing of these proposed changes said
Tuesday night. ''The city of Kenosha
tails to foster her industries and moth
ing is ever done for the accommoda-
tons of the plants that are making the
city what it is.
Ihe slip shod manner in which the
taxes are levied against the industrial
plants IN the city is sufficient to drive
any factory out of town. There were
many factories in the city this year
that were assessed far above their
value with no other guide except the
OPINION OF the assessor and the super
visor Of assessments. 1t is impossible
for those men to know the value Of
these plants and the values placed by
them were largely inflated. There was
no redress as the Board of Review
simply smiled at the complaints of the
factory men and in many cases boosted
the taxes.
The factories of the city are not
seeking immunity from taxation but
they are seeking a just assessment
and one that is based on fact and not
Imagination. There are many WAYS
in which the Common Council could
show their appreciation of the work of
the factories for the city but there
seems to be tendency to soak the fac
tories whenever chance comes up"
It is probable that the factories will
remain IN Kenosha, but if the city of
Nacedah can afford to make such of.
fers for factories it shows good Judge
ment in attempting to secure those
already in successful operation. Ke-
nosha's experience in offering bo-
muses. and special privileges has not
been such as to encourage any further
ventures of the kind.
