Stockholders Of the Kenosha
County Old Settlers Asso-
citation Meet.
ROBERTS TRIES TO RESIGN.
Stockholders, However, Refuse to Per
NIT it, and an Assistant Secre-
tary is Named.

There was a pathetic scene at the
meeting Of the stockholders of the
Old Settlers club, held at the office
of z. G.. Simmons Saturday afternoon
when r. f. Roberts, who has served
the society as secretary for the last
Is wears, arose to tender his res1gna-
ton to the club. It had been a great
effort for Mr.. Robert to attend the
session of the club members and he
was so feeble that he could scarcely
stand the strain of the meeting. In a
word he told how close the cause of
the old settlers of the county had
been to his heart, but he explained
ciety he had decided to resign his
office. Mr.. Roberts had scarcely sat
down, when the will of the society
was expressed by z. G. Simmons, who
commended that the aged secretary
be not allowed to retire from Office.
Mr.. Simmons stated that Mr.. Roberts
had given his best efforts to the work
of the club and that he thought that
it was the unanimous vote of the club
that he should retain the office even
though it would be necessary for the
club to employ al assistant secretary.
Mr., Roberts cn1y smiled his satisfac-
ton and the vote of the club was
unanimous to retain the secretary for
another year. The plan will proba-
bly, give Mr.. Roberts life lease OF
the Office.
His work, however, has been the
life of the organization and it is GER
tain1y due to him that he be kept in
his cherished office until he is called
to Join the greater majority of the
pioneers in another world.
The meeting of the directors and
stockholders was one of the most sue
cessfu1 ever held by the club. There
was voting attendance of $50 and
the reports of the officers show that
the club is in splendid condition.
Since the organization of the club
more than $4,000 has been spent on the
grounds and buildings at Paddock's
Lake, and there is still small bal
ance in the clubs treasury.
B. H. Stocker, G. A. Dewey and z.
@. Simmons we're elected to succeed
themselves as directors of the club.
After the meeting of the stockho1d-
ers the annual meeting of the direc-
tors of the club was held and the fol-
lowing officers were elected:
President-B. H. Stocker.
Vice President-D. L. Burgess.
Secretary-R. F. Roberts.
Assistant Sec.-Frank Roberts.
Treasurer-A1exan Bailey.

G. HURSON rs DEAD
Pioneer Lake Captain, Formerly
Of kenosha, Died in MiIWau.
kee Sunday Morning.
REMAINS BROUGHT HERE.

Gregory Hurson, well known all
over the great lakes one of the last of
the old time captains and boat line
managers, and former pioneer
residentof Kenosha died at his home,
258 Mason street Milwaukee, Sunday
morning of diabetes and comp1ica-
tion of disorders which have extended
over several years. He was 81 years
old, and was forced to retire from
active business five years ago on ac-
count Of his health. Since that time
he has been an invalid. Two weeks
ago his condition became critical, and
Sunday morning at 3:45 O'Clock he
passed away, with his wife and
daughter at his bedside.
He was born on Nov. 8, 1847, at
Burlington, VT. Shortly after his
fifteenth birthday he set out on his
own account, and at the age of II
yearsehe was cabin boy on one of the
Goodrich line boats running between
Chicago and Milwaukee, and continued
in the employ Of that company for
thirty years, rising to general
managership of the line.
Ten years ago he severed his con-
nection with the Goodrich line and
established company of his own
known as the Hurson Transportation
company.
The Hurson transportation COM
pang operated it's steamers between
Chicago and Milwaukee until Sept. %,
1899, when the boats and business
were disposed of to the Barry brothers
tug owners of Chicago, who there
upon established the Barry Trans
portation company.
Mr.. Hurson, through his long
asso ciation with marine interests, was
known to practically every one of the
older owners and ca plains of the great
lakes.
He lived at Kenosha for a number
of years, and while a resident here
married Miss Louise E1kin, Of well
known Kenosha family, and she
survives him, as we'll as daughter,
Miss Maud Hurson. The funeral was
held at 1880 o. clock Tuesday from the
residence, 258 Mason street. The Rev.
C. L. Mallory, pastor of st. Matthew's
Episcopal church, officiating. The
body was brought to Kenosha for in
torment in the family lot at the city
cemetery.

LOSE PAYMENTS.
Kenosha Customers of MiIwau-
kee Diamond Firm May Be
Forced to Bear Losses.
GOVERN MENT TAKES CONTROL

Kenosha patrons Of the firm of
Temp1eman & Co., diamond importers
having a store in Milwaukee, are
badly worried today on account of the
fact that the United States govern
ment has issued fraud order against
the company's business and has or
dered all the mail of the company re-
turned to the writer's. The company
is said to have in the neighborhood of
forty customers residing in Kenosha,
and these people have been paying
money into the company for some
time to pay for diamond rings which
were to be delivered when a certain
amount had been paid. The agents
of the company declare that the COM
pany is not subject to indictment in
the United States court, but the gov
eminent has ordered the postmaster
at Milwaukee to return all mail adj
dressed to the company and a lively
fight is expected.
One of the customers of the COM
pany came to this office this morning
and stated that he had paid quite a
sum into the hands of the company
and that according to the contract
with him the company would have the
right to keep his money if his pay
ments we're allowed to lapse. 1t is
feared that all of these contracts will
lapse under the decision of the
government to return the mail to the
writer's. Manager Tenp1eman de-
c1ares that his company is entirely
reliable and that they are able to
carry out every contract that has been
made but he insists that if the mail is
stopped all contracts will lapse and
pass into the hands of the company.
1t is claimed that more than two
hundred dollars of Kenosha money
has been invested with the company
in the past few weeks.
