OFFICERS ARE NAMED
Directors Of The KenOsha Hospital
Company Elect z. G. Simmons, Jr.
President OF the Association.
COTTAGE WILL SOON BE UTILIZED

One of the most important meet
ings ever held by the directors of the
Kenosha Hospital Association was
held Monday at the home of Mrs. O.
S. Newell, on Prairie avenue. The
meeting was largely attended and
plans were adopted which will lead to
the enlargement of the capacity of
the hospital.
During the last few months the
number of patients at the hospital
has grown at such rapid rate that
the directors have discovered.that the
one building is not large enough to
accommodate all the demands on the
association and to this end immediate
steps will be taken to convert the
cottage just north of the main sbui1d-
ing into wards for the use of the sick
and suffering. The cottage will be
vacated at once and extensive i'm
provements will be made before it
is turned over for the use of the
superintendent of the association.
z. @. Simmons, Jr., who has served
as president of the association since
the sudden death of Charles f..
Cooper, was reelected to this office
for another year. He has taken a
great interest in the affairs of the
association and it has prospered under
his leadership. The full list of Off
GERS elect for the year follows:
President &c. Simmons, Jr.
Vice President = Mrs. Mary O..
Newell.
Secretary-Mrs. James Cavanagh.
Treasrrer-John O'Donne11.
Committees were appointed as fol-
lows: On Admittance to the Hospital,
Mrs. George V. Redeker, Miss Anna
Han1ey and Miss Hall the superin-
tendent of the hospital. The supply
committee consists of Mrs. r. M.
Mailer, Mrs. A. H. Lance and Miss
| Ida Robinson.

Sandsten has secured the services of
Mr.. Christian Bues, of New York, an

WANT GIFTS BACK.
Heirs OF The Late Christina voight De.
mand Large Sum From Ger
man Lutheran Church.
CLAIM DONOR DID NOT OWN MONEY

The trustees of the German Lu-
that the heirs Of the late Christina
Voight will demand an accounting
from the church on account of certain
gifts made by Mrs. Voight to the
church. Some three years ago Mrs.
Voight gave to the trustees of the
church the sum of $500 for church
purposes. It was given with the ex-
press agreement that the trustees
Of the church should pay to Mrs.
Voight during her life the sum of
forty-fve dollars a year. This con-
dition was met by the church. Mrs.
Voight died short time ago leaving
no will and an administrator for the
estate has been appointed by the courts
of the county. The administrator in
conjunction with the other heirs has
notified the minister of gthe church
that suit will be started to secure the
return of the money given by Mrs.
Voight. In support of this suit the
heirs at law claim sthat the money
was not the property of Mrs. Weight,
but a portion of the estate of her hus-
band and that she had only an equity
in the estate during her life. Attor-
neys have been retained to look after
the matter and the trustees of the
church have refused to accept any
compromise. In speaking Of the
matter this morning, the Rev. c..
Buenger, the pastors.ssof the church
said: '"The church, of scourse, de-
sires to retains the money if it has a
right to it but we do not want the
money if it is not ours by right. We
have refused to accept any com.
promise and will aprobab1y have to
stand a suit on the question"
The money is now in the hands of
the trustees ofsthe church and will
be held by them.pendiug the trial of
the case.

Old Maids of the County Meet in Con-
vention at Salem and Pass Res0-
Iutions For Their Advancement.
LAWS ARE DEMANDED TO AID THEM
Resolutions Passed BY the Convention May
Be Sent to State and National Par
ties For Endorsement.

The most unusual convention ever
day at the opera house in the town
of Salem, when the old maids of that
town met in convention assembled to
take some action to better their lot.
There were twenty-one of the maiden
ladies who occupied chairs on the
platform and who were willing to ad-
NIT that they had not been selected
as wives by the men of the town. It
was most unusual gathering. There
were all sorts Of old maids. There
were some who had just passed the
age limit of twenty-five while among
the number were one or two who had
lived in single b1essedness for more
than half a century.
When the convention was ready to
open the young ~ lady who had been
suggested as the chairman of the
convention, refused to face the crowd
which packed the opera house and
Mrs. DR.. Hickey was selected to take
the chair. She accepted the honor
and presided during the deliberations
of the convention.
During the evening letters were
read from promoters of Matrimonial
Bureaus III Alaska asking the dele
gates to the convention to come up
into the Klondyke region and assist
the bureau IN making the men Of the
gold fields homes.
This communication was considered
at length and the delegates finally
decided to notify the firm that the
matter would be taken under consid-
GRAFTON and a committee will CORE
spond with the members of the Bureau.
All sorts of resolutions were pre-
sented to the convention and among
the plans adopted by the convention
were resolutions demanding that the
Legislature of the state pass laws de-
handing that all men above the age
of twenty-one years must marry
within five years.
That Wisconsin men must be mar
ried to Wisconsin women. That I'M
married ladies over the age of forty
years shall receive an annual pension
from the funds collected by the state
for the hunting licenses. That
maiden ladies shall be favored in the
selection of school teachers, that
maiden ladies shall have the right to
vote at all elections in the state when
unmarried at the age of thirty-ive
years. That old maids shall have the
right to hold state and county offices,
and that their property rights be pro-
tected by liberal legislation in their
behalf.
The platform was adopted by a
unanimous vote of the old maids, and
the crowd cheered the action. 1t is
probable that the old maids will send
copy of the platform to the National
Republican convention in Chicago
and ask that it be endorsed by the
| party.
Governor LaFo11ette will be asked
to tack the platform to the present
state platform of the boilers and it is
thought that it will add not little
strength to the boilers party.
