RECLAIM SWAMP LANDS.

Purpose of Racine and Kenosha County
Farmers in Building HDitch.
Arrangements are pending for the
construction of ditch or.canal to ex-
tend through the entire town of Mt.
Pleasant, Racine County, running
from Somers north twelve miles. 1t is
proposed to make the canal twelve feet
wide and FIVE feet deep. The building
Of the canal will redeem over a thou
sand acres of swamp land .that is now
useless.
Sunday the members of the town
board of Caledonia held meeting In
Racine to discuss the matter, but no
definite conclusion was arrived at All
residents IN Caledonia are in favor of
the canal, but one farmer in Somers
will not sign release papers and that is
holding back the Improvement. An
other meeting will soon be held. Ore
Of those interested said Sunday after
noon that the building of the canal
would drain land and increase the va
lue thousands of dollars.

OFFER RIGHT OF WAY.
Managers Of COT Ground Properly
Make a Proposition to Railway
Company for Route to City.
OFFER DECLINED BY CLARK.
Company Will Insist on a traight Route
Through the Grounds and Condemna-
ton will Probably be Regorted to.

The conference between Frarh Slos-
son, the manager of the Balm property,
and Alexander Clark, che promoter of
the Chicago, Kenosna and Milwaukee
Electric Railway, failed to result in an
agreement in regard to the route
through the golf grounds. Mr.. Slos-
son has made proposition to the
railway company but the proposition
has been declined, and it is possible
that there will have to be many con-
ferences before any agreement can be
reached.
The offer of Mr.. Slosson was one
which would permit the building of the
road and yet in no way interfere with
the use Of the grounds by the Kenosha
Country Club. He proposed that the
property owners grant to the company a
right of way along the extreme eastern
edge of land bringing the road within a
few feet of the eastern boundary of
Park Avenue extended. If the line we're
built in this manner the property when
subdivided into lots would be laid out
! in such manner that the road would
be at the back Of the lots so made. It
is the plan Of the owners of the prop
erty to lay out the land so as to have
all the lots now on Park Avenue face
the east on account of the fact that the
cemetery is directly across the avenue
and the prospective owners of the
property might prefer to have the
cemetery to the rear rather than in
front. Mr.. Slosson also insisted that
! the company grant to the owners of
the property right to cross the lines
of the company at any street inter
section.
After due consideration the offer Of
right of way was declined as Mr..
Clark held that the. company was
planning to build the road for high
speed road and that the only solution
of the matter would be route directly
/ through the center of the property.
The route laid out by Mr.. Clark and
his associates is opposed by the owners
of the property on account of the fact
that it cuts the lots almost through the
center and would leave the property ia
very awkward position for plating.
The demands Of the company have
been taken under advisement by Mr..
Slosson, and if possible he will make
an amiable settlement with the com
pany and keep the matter out Of the
courts.
/ Mr.. Clark yesterday forwarded to
Volney Foster, the head of the com.
pany, the last Of the deeds for right
of way between the VanIngen proper.
ty and the State line so that the golf
ground route is about the only con.
tested ground at this time.

HER ONLY SIN. !"
Presented at the Rhode Opera House Last
Night to An Enthusiastic Audience.

Presented at the Rhode Opera House Last
Night to An Enthusiastic Audience.
In his newest play Her Only Sin, !"
which was presented at the Rhode
Opera House last night, Mr.. Lincoln
T. Carter has given to the American
stage very charming and clever
play. It comes at the time wh5E de-
cadence and degeneracy in modern
plays needs checking, and his lwork
in last nights play demonstrates his
master hand.
The play, clean and sure bit Of
work, depends not at all for its success
upon the usual scenic and mechanical
trickeries Of such productions. It is
pure in conception-effective in execu-
ton and artistic in its expression.
The work of the company was on a
par with the best we have had in Re.
nosha in some years.
The play was beautifully staged, the
scenery being on magnificent scale.
s'Her Only SIM is the summit of Mr..
Garter's achievements, and is destined
to permanent success.

LICHTENTELLER ESCAPES
Man Sent From This County to State Re-
formatory Escapes His Guards.

Fred Lichtenteller, the Kenosha
man who was sent to the state institu-
ton at Green Bay almost a year ago
on charge of wife abandonment. has
escaped from the reformatory and is
at large. The Kenosha officials have
been asked to make an effort to secure
his return to the institution.
Lichtenteller is said to be one OF the
most crafty individuals ever incarcer-
ated at Green Bay and when he en-
tered the reformatory he was set to
work on inside work. His health be-
came poor and the officials thought
that it would be best for him to be
placed on the farm and week ago he
was Sc OFT into the fields to help the
men ? work there. The Kenosha man
lost no time ia getting away and when
the roll was called in the evening he
was among the missing. Lichtentel-
Ter fought shy Of Kenosba until last
Saturday night when he came back to
renew acquaintance with his old
haunts. He had been in the city only
few hours when his presence became
known to Sheriff Timme and his depu
ties and the sheriff hurried to the
Lichtenteller home to make an effort
to capture him but the escaped pris-
oner was too quick for him and man
aged to escape again. It is now sup
posed that Lichtenteller has fed to
Chicago where he has friends.
Lichtenteller was in for a year and
his term would have expired early in
the fall. If he is captured he will
spend the rest of his term on bread
and water.
