BEES TAKE POSSESSION.
Swarm of Bees Take Charge of Gable Boz
on South Street and Workmen Flee.

Swarm of Bees Take Charge of Gable Box
on South Street and Workmen Flee.
The workmen of the Wisconsin Tel
ephone Company had an unexpected
reception Wednesday afternoon when
they went to repair cable box of the
company on South street. One of the
workmen whistling merry tune went
to the top of the pole and carelessly
opened the cable box and prepared to
fix it when his companion noticed that
the merry tune was hushed and the
workman was hurrying down the pole
about as fast as his legs would carry
him. There was a tumult at the top
of the pole and in minute couple of
hundred of the angry denizens of the
cable box were scurrying down the
pole after the invader. The denizens
we're honey bees which had left their
hive in the neighborhood and had con
verted the property of the telephone
company into splendid home. The
white clover in the neighborhood had
furnished ample food and the box was
pretty we'll filled with honey. Manag-
er Gibson is now looking for some one
who wants swarm of bees and it is
safe toEsay that they can have the
bees for the taking away.

c. K. Burr, the Bank Promoter, Still
Hopes to Open New Financial
Institution For KenOsha.
LOCAL CAPITAL COMING IN SLOW
Difficulty of Securing Capital in Kenosha
Forces Mr.. Burr to Turn to Chicago
Capitalists For Support.

G. <. Burr, who came to Kenosha
from Davenport, Iowa, short time
after the closing of the Kenosha State
bank for the purpose of promoting a
new bank IN the city, is still in Keno
sha and is making an Office in the d..
funct institution. What is more to the
point Mr.. Burr is still at work on his
plans for the bank and expects within
short time to startle the people Of the
city by an impromptu announcement
in regard to the new institution.
Mr.. Burr is very quiet man and
manages to keep out Of the way of
newspaper men but it is reported that
he has several plans on foot near Kc.
nosha and is making this city the cen
trail point of his 1abors.
Thus far Mr.. Burr has not been able
to interest sufficient capital to secure
the success of the proposed new bank
and for this reason he is planning to
secure capital from the outside. DUR
ing his long stay in Kenosha the
! promoter has been getting together
some statistics showing the amount of
money in the city and the amount of it
that is banked through the local banks.
The report shows that large amount
of money from Kenosha is being sent
to banks in other cities and for this
reason the promoter expects to show
that Kenosha offers splendid chance
for the opening of a new bank.
1t is said that the bonding company
which is winding up the affairs of the
Kenosha State bank is taking an in
terest in the plans for the opening of
a new institution but Special Agent
Bowen, who is in charge of the work of
the bonding company here, refuses to
admit that such is the case. He holds
a discreet silence in affairs concerning
the bank and plans for the future but
admitted that something would be
ready for the public in the near future.
Promoter Burr is on very good terms
with the two banks in the city and it is
possible that he is working in unison
with them.
The failure of the Kenosha State
bank has left a splendid opening in
Salem and it is possible that the plans
for the new bank will also provide for
the opening of branch in the village.
Mr.. Burr has been in the bank pro-
noting business for many years and
he sees great opening in Kenosha.
He believes that he will be able to con-
vince outside capitalists that money
can be made in the banking business
here and if such is the case there will
be little trouble to secure al the money
needed.
The affairs of the State bank are
rapidly being closed up and in another
month nearly ali the accounts will
have been paid off. 1t is possible that
at that time some steps will be taken
to secure settlement of the affairs of
the Kenosha Trust company but as yet
no move has been made to bring the
officials of this company into court.
President Komp, of the Trust CONF
pany, is now working in Chicago.

riage to Mrs. Anna Jensen.

Announcement has been made of the
marriage of Theodore Kerst, the we'll
known draymau who makes his head
quarters at the corner of Main and
Market streets, to Mrs. Anna Jensen.
The marriage took place at Waukegan
on last Wednesday, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Kerst have returned to Kenosna to
make their home.
The wedding will undoubtedly come
as considerable of a surprise to both
the friends of the bride and groom, as
no announcement had been made of
the approaching nuptials.
Mr.. and Mrs. Kerst are now at home
to their friends at the home of the
groom on East Park street.

necessity of being compelled TO 60 often
during the day, and to get up many times
during the night. The mild and the extra

realized. It stands the highest for its won

Divinity of Labor.

Labor is divine The Son Of God was
an industrious carpenter. Every man
needs to have something to do. It not
only makes him safe for this life-it Is
a diyinely appointed means for making
him safe for the life to come. Charac
ter is perfected, the divine possibility
discovered, only by labor. Labor saves
the man and saves the world. In Hol
man Hunts noble picture we see Jesus
the carpenter saving a board at the
bench. The sun as it streams in from
behind is caught by his figure at its
toll, and there is cast on the work
room floor the shadow Of himself on his
cross. AS we do our days work we are
bearing the worlds burdens are help
ing to save the VOID unto Ire Dive

Two Posts--S37.5O Each.

The highest price ever paid for
posts in Ward county was paid
Monday in Minot when Martin
Olson and Arne r. Roam, OF Bow
bells, forked over $3.50 each
for the privilege OF using two OF
l.. S. Foote'S posts, taken from
his fence near Burlington Satur-
day. Mr.. Foote has had much
trouble with people tearin G
down his fences and confiscating
the material. Saturday with
the aid of a glass Mrs Foot saw
two men tear down the fence in
the pasture a mile from the house
and load on some posts. Foote
returned an hour later and learn
ing Of the deed started in pur-
suit. He caught the men eight
miles on, and pretending to be
looking for ACCOMPLISHMENTS near
Bowbells, their home, he learned
their names. Coming to Minot
he secured warrants and the de-
putty sheriff arrested the men.
They admitted before Judge
Murray they took the posts but
claimed that they needed them
to block their wheels. They had
a load ofcoal but had plenty OF
posts and their story was not
believed.
