KenOshans Stumble About in the
Foggy Weather With No Street
Lights to Guide Them.
MACHINES FAIL TO GIVE POWER.
Three Machines Have Been Installed Since
the Fire but None of Them Is of Suf-
ficient Power to Furnish Light.

The report of the police officers this
morning show that Kenosha was in
almost total darkness Friday night,
and ninety-eight of the street lamps in
the city were out a total of seven hum
dred and fifty-seven hours. Now it is
up to the Philadelphia lawyer to figure
out the number of hours that the lights
burned. The night was one of the
worst that has been experienced in Ke-
nosha in many months. The fog set
tied down like blanket and it was
almost impossible for any one to get
On such night, above all others, the
lights would have been expected to
burn, but this seems to have been the
night selected by fate for the dark
schedule to go into operation.
AT the Office of the Kenosha Gas &
Electric company the explanation
given for the failure of the lights is
that the company has not as yet Sue
ceeded in getting a generator which
will carry the different street circuits.
Since the fire destroyed the equipment
of the company three different ma
chimes have been put IN. Two of them
have been burned out and the last one
seems to be too weak for service. One
of the circuits can be operated with this
generator and the company has been
alternating. During one part of the
night the south side circuit of lights
would be kept burning and at another
time during the night the current
would be switched to the north side
circuit. In this way lights to the diff
ferent parts of the city were kept
pretty we'll divided. The company
has ordered new set of machinery
from Chicago and it is expected to ar
rive today, and when it is placed in
position the company thinks that there
will be little trouble in furnishing
light for the entire city.
The work of rebuilding the power
house of the company has not started
on account of the fact that the insur-
ance adjusters are little slow to ad
just the losses on the power house and
machinery destroyed ia the fire. The
companies seem to be having consider
able trouble to agree on the amount of
loss to be paid and it is possible that
the matter will have to be submitted
to arbitration. IF this is necessary it
will probably be a month or more be-
fore the insurance is adjusted and it
will be several weeks after this before
the new building is started.
The commercial circuit of the COM
pany is being run from a generator at
the Simmons Manufacturing company
and this arrangement will be kept ia
force until the new power house is
built.

NELLIE BLY, SEEKS AID.
Negro Woman Bearing That Name Is
Given a Berth in the County JAIL

Negro Woman Bearing That Name Is
Given Berth in the County Jail
A colored girl bearing the rather
high sounding name Of Nellie Bly, ap-
piled at the county Jail Friday night
for place to sleep sclaiming that she
had been turned out by theatrical
troupe at Pleasant Prairie and had
been forced to walk to this city to Sc
cure shelter. The woman claimed that
the members of the troupe had kept her
clothing and had3withheld money due
her so that she had absolutely nothing
to pay her expenses as far as Chicago
or to purchase nights lodging. She
stayed during the night in one of the
rooms in the woman's department at
the Jail and this morning it was found
that the woman was so filthy that it
was necessary to burn all the bed
clothing in the cell. The woman was
hurried out of town, the County Agent
providing her with transportation to
Chicago.

Hollow Car Axles.

1t is well known that a given amount
Of metal arranged in the form OF a tt be
will possess greater rigidity than as a
solid bar The principle was long ago
utilized in the formation Of the square
columns of steel frame buildings,
Lately it has been applied to the i'm
mense shafts Of ocean steamships,
which are subjected to severe bending
as well as twisting strains. A hollow
shaft is sitter than a solid one of the
same weight. The most recent use Of
the idea is in the manufacture of axles
for cars. 1t is asserted that less metal
is used in them than in the ordinary
axle. They also require much less ma
chine work to finish them. From the
manufacturers point of view, at least,
they are more satisfactory than those
which they are designed to replace
Just what service may be expected Of
them is another question. In order to
settle that question, a lot Of cars are
now being built with hollow axles
under one truck and solid ones under
the other These are to run for six
months and then examined for signs

Stockholders OF the American Brass
Company Come to Kenosha to In
spect the Local Plant.
MAY BE THE WESTERN CENTER.
Plans Being Made to Enlarge the Kenosha
World.-A Successful Year.

The annual meeting of the officers
and directors of the Chicago Brass
Works was held Friday afternoon and
many we'll known brass men from the
east came to Chicago to attend the
meeting, and later to Kenosha to in
spect the local plant. Little or no
change has been made in the manage
ment of the local plant as result of
the meeting and the business will be
carried on during the coming year on
the same plans laid down for last year.
F. L. Ellsworth has been reelected
as manager of this plant and the plant
still continues under the presidency of
Charles f. BROKER, OF Torrington,
Coma. Among the members of the
American Brass company who came to
Kenosha Friday were President Chas.
F. BROKER, Vice-President A. P. Hine,
E. L. Frisbie. Jr., and ]. A. Daughty.
The visit to Kenosha swas a short
one, the men coming on the noon
train and spending a few hours in
looking over the plant and suggesting
changes to be made during the year.
After the inspection the officers of the
company and the leading employees of
the Kenosha plant were given dinner
at the Hotel Eichelman.
The year which has just closed has
been the most successful in the his
tory of the Kenosha plant since it
passed into the hands of the big East
ern company and there is every reason
to believe that the plant is proving one
of the most profitable under the man
agenent of the company. The old
time night and day work has been re-
sumed at the plant and smore brass is
being turned out than ever before.
Eastern methods are being introduced
into the mills as rapidly as possible
and many new products are being
added to the output. The plant is es-
sentially brass mill and nothing but
brass is being sold from it. The ex-
tensive business which was done by
the old Chicago Brass Company in the
seems to have been given up and the
manufacture of reeds has been left to
the various Chicago companies in this
line Of business.
At the meeting Friday plans we're
discussed for a larger plant in this
city and it is probable that within a
few years the Kenosha factory will be
the western supply center of the Amer
lean Brass Company.
At present the force Of men at the
plant is all too small aud with any ad-
ditions to the equipment twill be
necessary to make an increase in the
force of men employed.

ANSWER OF BAKER.
Attorney Norman L. Baker Gives Facts In
the Suit of Mrs. A. j. Brinsley.

Norman L. Baker answers in the
Brinsley suit denying the allegations
of the complaint and setting forth the
circumstances under which the $500 in
question was given him.
It is claimed by Mr.. Baker that he
was employed to defend Mr.. Brinsley,
who was charged with embezzling the
funds of the Modern Woodmen, and
that after it was ascertained that Mr..
Brinsley had failed to account for over
$500 of the camps funds he advised
Mr.. and Mrs. .Brinsley to refund to the
camp the amount of his shortage, and
that Mrs. Brinsley voluntarily turned
over to him the $500 in question with
full understanding and explicit direc-
tons that it should be used to pay the
shortage. Mr.. Baker claims that al
though the money was paid to the
Woodmen over four years ago Mrs.
Brinsley did not demand the return Of
the money from him, in any manner,
or question his authority to use it in
paying the Woodmen, until recently.
Mr. Baker considers the action oe
Mrs. Brinsley very ungrateful in view
of the great efforts he made to pre-
serve the reputation of Mr.. Brinsley,
for which he has never received any
compensation, and in view of the fact
that in order to do so he paid some 500
of his own money in addition to the
$500 furnished by Miss Brinsley.

REV. S. N. ELVIN RESIGNS.
Minister of Swedish Lutheran Church An
nOunces His Resignation.

nounces His Resignation.
The Rev. S. N. Elvin, for the past
two years pastor of the Swedish Luth-
eran church in this city and Racine,
has sent to the trustees of the church,
his resignation of the passionate and it
is stated that he will probably accept
call to one of the churches of the de-
nomination in the East. The resigna-
ton is to take effect the first of May.
A special meeting of the church has
been called for next Tuesday evening,
at which time action on the resignation
will be taken.
The Rev. Mr.. Elvin has been very
popular with the members of his
church in Kenosha and he has done
much to improve the church. His de-
parture will be greatly regretted by
the members and friends of the church.
AS yet no steps have been taken to
secure new minister for the church,
but the selection will be largely gov
erned by the mission conference of the
church under which the Kenosha
church is managed. The church at
Racine will in the future have a min
lister of its own and if the Kenosha
church is not strong enough to stand
alone it will be forced to unite with
Waukegan. The Waukegan church
recently called student, Rev. Mr..
Oleson, to the pastorate of the church,
and it is probable that he will also
have charge of the Kenosha church
after the departure of Mr.. Elvin.

THE SWEDISH BENEFIT.
Committee Reports That a Good Sum of
Money Has Already Been Secured.

Money Has Already Been Secured.
The committee in charge of the bene-
fit TO be given in Kenosha to raise a
fund for the famine sufferers in
Sweden, met Thursday night for the
first time and it seems certain that the
benefit will be one of the greatest con-
certs ever given in Kenoshs. More
than hundred dollars in money has
already been given for the fund for the
entertainment and many of the people
of the city have consented to make
further gifts in the way of assistance
on the evening of the entertainment.
The entertainment will be held at the
Rhode opera house and number of
the leading Swedish singing societies
of Chicago will come up to take part.
John M. Harlan has been asked to de-
liver an address and he will probably
accept the invitation.
