YEAGER NOW "A KENOSHkN

Famous New York Turf Follower the Pur-
chaser OF Green Acre Farm"
When 1t was announced Friday that
]. G. Yeager has purchased Green
Acre farm, the famous villa of Grace
Smell Coffin few people in Kencsha
knew that the new owner of the prop
erty was the greatest turf gambler and
bookmaker in the United States. Yea
ger is preparing to make his home at
Honeymoon Rest, and there is wild
rumor afloat that the romantic old
house will become great gambling
resort.
On Tuesday of this week Yeager
paid $47 900 for admission to the Met.
ropolitan Turf Association, and he has
the reputation Of being the most scien-
tifc and at the same time reckless
plunger on the American turf.
Thus far he has not made any off,
cial announcement of his plans for the
property, but should it be turned into
gambling room it will undoubtedly
be the greatest gambling resort in the
country. The people residing in the
neig hborhood Of the farm are taking a
great interest ia the matter, and are
Ianxiously awaiting the new owner.

HITS AT MORMONISM.

Mrs. Maria Weed Delivers an Interesting
Lecture at Park Avenue Church.
Mrs. Maria Weed, National Lecturer
for the INSTRUMENTATION Council OF
Women, gave very able address at
Park Ave. M. E. church Thursday
evening. She spoke of the teachings,
practices, growth and political designs
of Mormonism.
Mrs. Weed is highly cultured, poss.
esses keen powers of analysis, intense
convictions and forcible manner OF
presenting facts. She made a thor.
ough study of Mormonism at Salt Lake
City under the tutelage of prominent
Mormon official, who regarded her as
probable convert to the faith.
She says Polygamy has not been
abandoned. Females are taught from
childhood that marriage is their only
salvation. A first wife who succeeds
in giving the hand of her husband to
the largest number OF additional wives
will secure the richest reward in hea-
ven. Both men and women are fanat
ical in their zeal. Their apostles are
in every State in the Union. Their
inhibition is to secure the balance OF
power in government.
The present effort is to prevent the
seating of the recently elected Nor.
mon Senator Smoot-and to secure an
amendment to the National Constitu.
ton prohibiting Polygamy.

DOG CENSUS COMPLETED.

Special officer Biennemann Finds Most
Dogs In City Have Been Taxed.
Special Officer Biennemann has
completed the work of taking a census
of the dogs in the city and the enforce
ment of the ordinance will probably
begin on Monday of next week. The
work of the census taker is interesting
in that it shows that a large. majority
of the dogs in the city have secured
the proper tags by paying the stipend
to the city.
There are nearly thousand dogs in
the city and the records Of the city
clerk show that 494 males and 43 fe
males have been licensed. These Ii
censes have paid into the city total
of $500 and this sum will be sufficient
to pay for the killing of all the unli-
censed dogs IN the city at the con-
tracted price. The contract price is a
dollar head and this price includes
the keeping of the dogs for the five
days which they must be held before
they are killed. It is now apparent
that the new ordinance will be of great
benefit to the city.

SHAKE UP AT ZION.
Northwestern Railway Displaces Zionists
For on-Believers at Dowie's City.

Northwestern Railway Displaces Zionists
For Non-Believers at Dowie's City.
It is reported tina. through the fa-
vors extended by his followers who
were agents of the Chicago and North
western railroad at Zion City, Dowie
has been enabled to get IN debt to
that company to the amount OF $4,000
AS result there has been shake up
of the railroads employees at Zion City.
The Dowieties who had been engaged
to work for the company there to please
Dowie have all been discharged and
their places filled by new men and
nom believers. Some time ago the
company got an idea everything was
not right and took advantage of the
absence of Agent E. O. Meyers in
New York with the host to go over the
books of the station. The result is
said to have been beyond their expec-
tations.
The Northwestern officials refuse to
confirm the story, but the presence of
an entirely new railroad force at Zion
City and the enforcement of orders
for prompt payment of freight charges
seems to bear out the story.

CAUGHT IN THE WEB
Kenosha Teachers Thought to Have
Been Taken in by Smooth Agent
IEAMENE EAGERLY SOUGHT FOR

County Superintendent George Tay-
Tor and some fifty or sixty teachers in
the county are anxiously seeking for
some trace of book agent who bears
the rather high sounding name of Leo
f. Jeamene. The teachers are begin
ming to think that they have been the
victims of wholesale swindle, and it
is thought that Jeamene by his clever
work has pocketed something like a
hundred dollars of the money Of the
Kenosha teachers.
Jeamene claimed that he was spec
ial representative for the r. A. Owen
Publishing company, of Danville, New
York, and during the last Teachers In
stitute which was held at Wilmot, he
was on hand to represent the company.
He was taking subscriptions for sew
eral educational papers, and added to
this 1t is said that he took many large
orders for school supplies.
Jeamene was crafty fellow, and he
easily won the hearts of the teachers
and separated them from their money.
He started in taking subscriptions for
sword Events and "The Normal In
structor'' and his game was such a
clever one that the teachers gave up
the money easily, and more than fifty
subscriptions were taken during the
last two days of the Institute. None
of the teachers have received the jour-
nails in question, and they have con-
cluded that Jeamene is great fraud.
County Superintendent Taylor has
taken the matter in hand and this
morning he wrote letter to the house
which the man represented and has
asked that the contracts made by Jea-
meme be carried out by the company.
The teachers are anxiously awaiting
the reply to this letter.
It is feared that the man has been
working in all sections of Southern
Wisconsin and that he has landed any
number of victims.
When he came to the Institute at
Wi1mot he stated that he had been
working at other Institutes, and it is
possible that the path Of the swindler
is State wide. Superintendent Taylor
states that he has little hopes of secur-
ing the return of the teachers money
or the carrying out of the contracts
| made by the alleged representative Of
the company. The loss to the teachers
of Kenosha county will be several
hundred dollars.

AFFIRMS HIS ALLEGIANCE.
Peter Hermann Signs Contract to Catch
For the Kenosha Team Next Season.

Peter Hermann Signs Contract to Catch
For the Kenosha Team Next Season.
It has been put down in black and
white and the chickering's of the Inter
state league nor the walls of cheap Ra-
cine sports will not be sufficient to
keep Peter Hermann, Of Racine, off
the Kenosha base ball team. Her.
mann this afternoon affixed his sigma
ture to Kenosha contract and it is a
contract which cannot be broken.
Hermann is easily the greatest base
ball catcher in the state of Wisconsin
and the most popular man that ever
played in Racine or Kenosha. For the
past two seasons he has had decided
leaning toward Kenosha but the rules
of the league prevented him from play
ing with the team of his choice. Her.
mann was anxious to sign with the
Kenosha team and the matter is now
settled. The Racine managers have
already started plans to break Her
mann's contract put the plans will
never be carried out as Manager
Breen is prepared to fight for his man
ia court if need be.

Green Acre Farm, the Famous Villa
Of Grace Smell Coffin, at Cross
Lakes, Passes to Strangers.
HONEYMOON HOME IS NO MORE.
j. G. Jaeger. of Chicago. Purchases Famous
Piece of Property For Twenty ThOus.
and Dollars.-Many Papers Filed.

The fight which has been on for the
past year to save Screen Acre Farm
the famous country villa Of Grace
Smell Coffin, at Cross Lake, in the
town of Salem, was ended today and
Mrs. Coffin has lost.
This afternoon the farm will pass
into the hands of strangers and the
splendid flower beds and lawn plats
will be plowed up to make room for
growing fields of corn and rye. The
new purchaser of the property is ]. c..
Yaeger and the papers which have
been filed with the register of deeds
during the day show that he paid
twenty thousand dollars for the famous
little tract of land. It was only pal
try five hundred dollars an acre for a
tract of ground that was richer in ro-
nance than any similar tract in the
state of Wisconsin or in any other
state.
Yaeger is matter of fact fellow,
and he grasped the idea of the worth
of the property overlooking the lotus
beds and at once agreed to pay off all
the mortgages on the place and to turn
over to Mrs. Coffin and her sister the
sum demanded for the property. Mrs.
Coffin will probably never return to
Kenosha county, but will make her
home either in California or in Chica-
go.
The transfer of the property de-
manded a big bundle of legal docu
ments, and in transferring the prop
erty all the husbands Of Mrs. Coffin,
save the last one, had word. Besides
the bulky mortgages which had recent.
ly been paid off and which were filed
for discharge, there were quit claim
deeds from Frank N. Coffin, who first
won the heart and hand of the deceased
Chicago millionaite's daughter.
To show that James c. Walker, an
other husband, had no claim to the
property, an affidavit from Wallace In
gals, attorney for Mrs. Coffin, was
placed on file showing that Walker had
been regularly divorced from Mrs.
Coffin, and that he had no claim to
any thing that might be portion of
her estate. Quit claim deeds we're
also filed from Mrs. Coffin to Florence
E. Hammond, and the final deed trans
ferring the property was from Mr.. and
Mrs. Hammond to Yeager.
| Tho farmers residing in the town OF
Salem will hear with regret that Green
I Acre is to become common piece of
farming land for since Mrs. Coffin first
came to Cross Lake ten years ago the
/ farm has been the wonder of the coun-
try people. It is said that Mrs. Coffin
expended more than thirty thousand
dollars in building her home. The
signals for the farmers in the neigh
borhood will now all be removed and
the house will probably be turned into
home for farm hands.
The departure of Mrs. Coffin from
Kenosha county removes an interest
ing character and she will be missed
by the people in the neighborhood of
Cross Lake.
