Board Of Education Ratifies the Deci.
sion OF the Teachers Committee
and Re.empIOys Teachers.
NEW BUILDING IS PROGRESSING.
Will Undoubtedly be Completed and Ready
for Use by the First of October
Contractors Get Pay.

The Board of Education met in reg
ular session at the city hall Tuesday
night, and the meeting was one of the
shortest and most uninteresting held
by the board during the year. It was
one OF those summer meetings with
nothing 70 do but allow bills and &C
cept reports of committees.
The most interest of the evening
was taken in the teachers report pre-
sented by the teachers committee.
The committee recommended that
Miss Seba Mou1ton and Miss Madge
Jennisen be re-emp1oyed as teachers
of English in the High school at the
same salaries as last year. They
further recommended that Miss Stew
ems, daughter of the Rev. and Mrs.
w. w. Stevens, be elected as a
teacher in the primary department..
Miss Stevens is a graduate of the
kindergarten department of the Mil
waukee Normal, and is regarded as a
splendid addition to the teaching
force of the city schools.
The report of the committee was
adopted by unanimous vote, and the
list of teachers for the year is now
complete.
Stewart & Peters, of GAINESVILLE,
who have the contract for the new
Durkee school we're allowed twenty
three hundred dollars on their con-
tract. With the allowance of this
amount, the committee on building
and grounds reported that the work
on the new building was progressing
in very satisfactory manner. The
brick work is going up very rapidly,
and there is no doubt but that the
building will be completed by the first
of October the time called for in the
contract. Not single difference has
so far occurred between the contrac-
tors and the members of the COM
n1ittee.
The members of the committee feel
that something must be done in the
near future to secure an addition to
the grounds of the Durkee school.
The erection of the new building will
take up SO much of the ground that it
will be absolutely necessary to secure
more ground if the children are to
have any place for a playground. It
is thought that this ground can be
purchased at very reasonable rate.
The members of the Board are also
considering plans for the purchase of
a lot in the west part of the city to
be used for school purposes and this
matter will probably be brought up at
the next regular meeting.
The date for the re-opening of the
schools has not as yet been set by the
Board, but it will probably be the sec
ond week in September.

GOING TO WAUKEGAN

sha Expected to Attend the Pic

NEIGHBORING CITIES FRIENDLY.

The business men of Kenosha are to
have an outing on next Tuesday for
President A. E. Buckmaster of the
defunct Business Mems association
hasTeceived letter from the Business
Mems association of Waukegan ask
ing the business men of Kenosha to
be the guests of the city of Waukegan
at the great picnic to be held in
Waukegan on next Tuesday. The
hospitality of the Waukegan business
men is made greater by the fact that
they have sent Mr.. Buckmaster five
hundred steamer tickets to defray the
expenses of the Kenosha business
men to Waukegan. Mr.. Buckmaster
will make an effort to have the bust
ness men of Kenosha accept the invit-
alton in the spirit in which it has
been given and it is expected that
every ticket will be used.
Kenosha and Waukegan have been
extending kindly greetings for some
time and this is good chance for the
friendship between the two cities to
"
has made the advance and all of the
business men of the city should be
glad to accept it.
The picnic at Waukegan will be one
of the greatest events of the kind ever
held in this section of the country.
Distinguished politicians and orators
will be present to make addresses and
there will be an abundance of sport
for all. Waukegan will be in holiday
attire and the city has appropriated
large sum of money for the entertain
ment of her visitors. The Kenosha
men should go down and enjoy the day
and then later in the year arrange a
return engagement for the two cities.
The tickets can be secured from Mr..
Buckmaster or from Joseph A. Pitts.

FOUND LITTLE GAME.
Upstate travelling Man Notifies Police
That He Was Euchered Out of
Fourteen Dollars.
DIDN'T WANT HIS MONEY BACK.

From letters that have been received
IN the city, it is evident that a nice
little game was in session in one of
the saloons of Kenosha last Thursday
evening, and one of the men who lost
money was an up state travelling man
by the name of II. B. Greenman. The
man had dropped little note to the
chief of police to tell him of the
game and while he is"not insisting on
the return of his money, he hints that
the game was one that would be wor-
thy to watch. According to the story
of the man, Kenosha has crowd that
is willing to furnish amusement for
nearly any one that happens to drop
into the town.
Greenman came in last Thursday
night and the time hung heavy on
his hands. He walked the streets for
couple of hours and failed to see
anything that would amuse a b1ase
proposition from up in the La Toilette
country, and then he started out to
find something that was real con-
genial. He met number of good fell
lows and they took compassion on
him. They didn't care for a little
game themselves, but if the company
of the city had to be amused they
were willing to offer themselves as
victims. Greenman had fourteen dol
lars and it lasted about long enough
to cause stir of pride in his heart.
But he felt that he had made good his
bluff and he left the game seemingly
happy. 1t is hardly possible that any
arrests will follow the little occur
renee, but other travelling men may
take kindly warning when they drop
into Kenosha and fight just little
shy of the little game.
Incidentally il might be stated that
there is considerable watch being
kept on the so called gambling houses
and the police will see to it that the.
little trick is not repeated right away.

THE CHICAGO CHRONICLE, one of
the leading Democratic dai1ies of the
middle west, owned and controlled by
prominent Democratic politicians,
bolted the Democratic ticket this
morning and is now in the Republican
ranks. In it's editorial announcing
it's change of heart, the Chronicle de-
c1ares that Bryan still dominates the
Democratic party and that 'fthe Re-
publican party, while not free of fault
by any means, offers the American
people at this time the only prospect
of efficient, intelligent and honest
government that is any where to be
seen" The Chronicle has been the
representative of the conservative
element of the Democratic party and
it's desertion of Parker and the plat
form at this time shows that all is not
yet peace and harmony behind the
scenes.

\ BENEFIT FOR THE ORPHANS.

Proceeds of Entertainment by Mrs. Crosby
to go to St. Mary's Summer Home
On Thursday evening, July q, the
orphans of St. Mary's Summer Home
at Kemper Hall are to be benefited by
a novel entertainment at the gy1nnas-
ium hall of that institution. So are
those of the people of Kenosha who
attend it.
Mrs. w. S. Crosby, of Chicago, the
world renowned interpreter of Wag-
ner's dramas, will give the opera of
'Parsifal'' with musical illustrations,
or rather she will play the score of
that opera and explain and recite it as
Wagner and his drama nor an oral
recital but the working out of the
whole musical expression of the opera
with oral explanations of each theme
and vocal rendering of those parts
of the libretto necessary for a full
understanding of it. This is so clev-
erly done that one does not need to be
a musician or unsteady informed to
comprehend the drama and Wagner
scope, purpose and meaning in Great
ing it.
The gross receipts from the enter
ta1nment are to be turned over to the
orphanage for it's summer home. Mrs.
Crosby's donation of her services
practically cancels all the expenses.
Single admission tickets SO cents.

NOXIOUs WEEDS INCREASING.
City Should See They are ExterminateCl
Before Going to Seed

Noxious weeds of many varieties
have gotten a considerable foothold
IN nearly every part of the city.
There is no time when it is as easy to
clean these out thoroughly as before
they have gone to seed, and for that
reason some action must be taken
soon for their determination, or the
city will be completely over run with
them by the middle of August or the
first of September. The west ends of
nearly all the south side streets run
ming east and west are natural breed
ing places for docks, mustard, null
lein and other weeds, and from these
street ends they spread to an alarm
ing extent. There is city ordin-
ance requiring the determination of
such pests by private individuals. It
would be good plan for the city
council to see that the city is kept as
free from them as are the lots of the
property owners.
