Members Of the Kenosha and Racine
Lodges Enjoy a Clam Bake
at Jacobs Island.
MANY NOTABLE MEMBERS PRESENT
Toasts Responded to by Congressman Coop
err, Mayor Mcdonald of Texas and
Other Well Known Members

A hundred and twenty.fiv of the
Best People On Earth gathered at
Jacobs island Friday afternoon and
evening to attend the first reunion and
clam bake given by the Kenosha and
Racine lodges Of the Benevolent and
Protective Order of Elks. The day
will long remain as gala day in Elk
dom for the two lodges and the friend
ly feelings generated between the two
lodges will make strong bond of
union for the future.
The clam bake was a great event
from every standpoint and many visit
ing Elks came from other cities to
take part in the merriment of the day
and evening. There was no shortage
in the clam market and the long table
at which plates were laid for over a
hundred was loaded down with the
good things of the season.
During the afternoon the old boys
had jolly time and many old time
sports were revived. There was base
ball game and several boxing matches
but the interest in the afternoon cen
tered about match game of ''Duck on
Davy" between the Racine and Keno
sha lodges. After more than an hour
of play it was decided to call the match
draw.
Late in the afternoon supper was
served and after the CLANS had been
stored away the members began an in
formal social session and in keeping
with the reputation of the order the
old grove was made to ring with the
merriment. Clarence Remer, of the
Kenosha lodge, who is one of the best
known Elks in the Northwest, acted as
POSTMASTER and many of the visitors
responded to toasts. Congressman H.
A. Cooper, Mayor Mcdonald, of Dali
las, Texas; Attorney Wallace Ingalls,,
of Racine; O. M. Petit and Otis L.
Trenary, Of Kenosha, were among the
speakers and nearly every we'll known
member Of the order was forced to fur
nish something for the entertainment
of the company. After the speeches
| were over there was camp fire and
about the camp FIRE splendid musical
program was rendered by W. H. Hay
ward (he of Roosevelt visage) and John
McLain, of Chicago, and ]. K.
Wheeler, of Kenosha.
Late in the evening the reunion
came to close when the MEMBER of
the two lodges gathered round the
camp FIRE and closed the day with the
familiar "Auld Lang Syne." The
mem bers of the Kenosha lodgecame to
Keuosha and entertained many visitors
at an informal social at the lodge
rooms.
| At the clam bake it was decided to
make the reunion of the two lodges an
annual event and the next reunion
will be looked forward to with great
deal Of pleasure.

gives help to people without pauperiz-

that can not be helped in any other
way. It is National charity and the
Kenosha branch has done fine work.

"A. N. Morris Physical Director Of Ke-
nosha Y. M. C. A. is Going to
Riverside, California.
HAS DONE MUCH FOR ATHLETICS.
Director Morris Has Twice Developed
cessor as Yet Not Selected,

A. N. Morris for the past three years
Physical Director of the Kenosha
branch of the Y. M. C. A., last mig hit
rendered his resignation to the mem
bers of the board of directors and it is
probable that the resignation will be
accepted. Mr.. Morris is going to the
far West and he has already been
elected to the position of director of
athletics for the branch of the Y. M.
c. A. at Riverside, California.
The resignation of Mr.. Morris came
as great surprise to the athletes of
the association as we'll as to the mem
bers of the board Of directors as Mr..
Morris has been considered fixture
in Kenosha. 1t is understood that he
would prefer to remain here but the
California opening is such splendid
one that he has decided to accept the
offer made to him.
Mr.. Morris during his three years
term as director of athletics in the
association has done much for sport in
Kenosha. He has laid out the new
athletic grounds and has organized
many teams chat have won honors for
the city. Under his direction the Ke.
nosha athletic team has twice won the
state Y. M. c. A. championship and
the athletes Of Kenosha are now better
known than those from any Y. M. C. A.
branch in the state. Mr.. Morris has
also been instrumental in organizing
the Kenosha Tennis Association and
he laid out the first court in the city
after the revival of the sport two years
ago.
The retiring director has been very
popular with the members of the local
branch Of the Y. NJ. c. A. and his
gymnasium classes have drawn to the
association building many of the best
known of the business and profession.
al men of the city.
1t is expected that Mr.. Morris will
leave within fortnight as he will be
gin his work in Riverside early in
October. AS yet the directors have
not secured any one to fill the vacancy
but several good men are in sight anc
it is certain that new director will be
secured before the opening of the
winter season of athletics.
The plans made by Mr. Morris for
the winter will be carried out and ali
the classes organized will continue to
hold their regular meetings. The
athletic work of the association has
grown to be one of the most important
features of the association work il
Kenosha and for this reason the di
rectors will secure new athletic man
ager as soon possible.
The many friends of Mr.. Morris will
regret to learn that he is leaving the
city but he will carry to his new homt
the best wishes of all.

FIRE IN SOMERS.
Explosion of Lamp Causes Bad Fire In
the Bullarnore Store at Somers.

Explosion of Lamp Causes Bad Fire In
the Bullarnore Store at Somers.
The store Of James Bullamore in the
town of Somers, was Quilted by FIRE
shortly after nine O'Clock Friday night,
entailing loss of about five hundred
dollars. The fire resulted from the ex-
plosion of a lamp which had been left
burning in the store, and for time it
looked as if the entire building would
be destroyed. A large crowd of people
had been attending the entertainment
given by Miss Runals at the Presby-
terian church, and with the aid of the
audience from the concert, the flames
were extinguished. The loss on the
stock is covered by insurance in the
Phoenix company.
Mr.. Bu1lamore was overcome in his
exertions in putting out the fire, and
is now seriously i'll at his home in
Somers.

GOOD SHOOTING THIS YEAR.
Game Said to be Very Plentiful on all
Hunting Grounds.

Game is remarkably plentiful in the
northern marshes this fall, according
to letters written by Milwaukee sports
men. The result is that there is a
great rush for hunting licenses at the
present time. The sportsmen say that
ducks were never more plentiful,
while snipe and plover abound every
where.
The marshes about Packwaukee and
along the Wolf river in the vicinity of
Fremont are said to TEEN with water
fowl.
Ordinarily hunters are obliged to
travel to the extreme northern sections
of the state at the opening of the hunt
ing season if they want to find game
plentiful and the fact that the birds
are found on the more accessible
waters, hunters believe, is due to the
absence Of spring shooting and the
remarkab bly, rank growth of wild rice
and marsh vegetation.

REPORTS UNTRUE.
Ell. A. Cooper Does Not Intend Leaving
Racine,


Congressman H. A. Cooper in an in
terview yesterday said that the rumors
that he was shortly to leave Racine
and locate in New York city were de.
void of any serlblance of truth. He
has no Intention Of leaving Wisconsin,
nor has he ever made any statements
which would tend to give rise to such
reports.
II have no idea where the rumor
gained its BIRTH" said Mr.. Cooper
when questioned as to the trlth of the
report that he was to locate in New
York and engage in private business.
"That somebody has started these re-
ports is certain, but for what purpose
cannot say. I have never contem-
plated leaving Wisconsin, nor have
ever given anybody reason to believe
that thought of doing so. have
been questioned several times during
the last few days on this subject.
first heard of the rumor when at Cum
ninghan1's at Browns Lake last week
and supposed that the denial made
at that time would prove sufficient.
The idea of my leaving my native state
is preposterous. | have never thought

The complaint of a scarcity of
teachers for country schools is not
only the case in this county, but is
quite general throughout the state.
AS rule country school teachers re-
ceive less pay in proportion to the
requirements expected of, them than
in any other calling. Probably one
season for low wages is on account
of the slim attendance at some schools,
which is due to various causes. A
consolidation of country schools where
ever it could be done conveniently
would effect saving in expense OF
teachers and at the same time give
&hem employment at better wages

Charles Genofill and Josephine Beall
two young people aged about twenty
years we're arrested Friday night on a
complaint sworn out by Sheriff Timme.
They are charged with fornication.
The two were arrested at house just
outside the city limits near the Engel
brick yard and it is claimed that they
have been living together as man and
wife for several months. The couple
made no effort to deny the truth of the
charges brought against them and in
court this morning they asked for a
short continuance of the case. The
girl is comedy girl and she informed
the court that she was willing TO marry
Genofi1l and this will probably be the
solution of the case. If the couple
marry the criminal charges brought
against them will be dropped.
