W. NAYLOR HOME
Former KenOsha Minister Returns to
New York After a Unique Mission
AIRY Tour of the World.
METHODlsM in SOUTH AFRICA

The Rev. Samuel w. Nay1or, for
mer1y pastor of Park Avenue M. e.
Church in thisScity, who resigned his
pastorate of the Kenosha church in
order to enter the mission field, re
turned to New York this afternoon
after one of the most unique Mis-
sionary trips ever made by any mem
Der of thessMethcdist Church.
Eight months among the natives OF
South Africa, is the report that will
be sent by Mr.. Nay1or, to his church.
In company with Bishop Hartze11,
the Missionary Bishop of the Metho-
dist Church, Rev. Mr.. Nay1or left
New York tenimonths ago, and since
that timeshe has Travelled $4,000 miles.
Much of the time he has been travel
ing in the interior of South Africa
and in many cases the visit of the for
mer Kenosha minister was the first
visit of white:man in that section Of
the country.
Mr.. Nay1or, during his absence,
attended the annual conference of the
Methodist Church in South Africa,
and assisted Bishop Hartze11 in re
organizing the work of. the church in
the distant field.
Mr.. Nay1or was sent abroad for this
work by the late Willis w. Cooper,
who it is gstated, furnished all the
funds needed for the long trip. Il is
probable that heIwi11 not return to the
field but that he will return to his
place in the Wisconsin conference
and begin again hissswork as minis
ter among the churches of the state.
The long trip of Mr.. Nay1or has
been Of great value to the missionary
society of the church, as he has been
instrumental in building up many new
churches in the benighted regions of
Africa.

HEAVIEST ON RECORD.
Government Ice Report Shows All Lakes
Choked with Ice.

Government Ice Report Shows All Lakes
Choked with Ice.
The report on the conditions on the
Great Lakes dated March / shows that
the ice this season is heavier than at
any time since ice reports have been
issued by the government. Follow
ing is a summary Of ice conditions on
the various lakes:
"The fields in Lake Superior ex-
tend from Duluth along the north
shore for over 12O miles and probably
extend outward for over 100 miles;
the reports, however, from Keweenav7
point indicate that the field in that
1oca1ity..is moving to and fro with the
wind, and therefore the lake is not
frozen over to the eastward of that
point. In.LakessM Michigan the lake is
practically full of ice, and the field
extends nearly from shore to shore;
the winds smove this immense field
slowly east and west. The ice at the
straitssisy heavy and heavily wind-
rowed over the northern portion o1
Lake Michigan and Huron. Lake
Huron appears solid with ice from the
few reports received this date. In
Lake Erie the ice is very heavy, but
has moved under the influence of high
southeaster1y winds, so that it cannot
be frozen solid from shore to shore.
In Lake Ontario the immense ice
fields move slowly with the wind, but
the east end is probably solid from
shore to shore. In 1876 Lake Superior
was reported to be frozen over, as has
been thescase this year, but the re-
ports in each case lack confirmation;
it is, however, probable that the lake
may be frozen over to the westward
Of Keweenaw point and northward to
Isle Royal.

The game was the most hot1y con-
tested ever seen in Kenosha and the
galleries of the gymnasium were

for the two teams. A crowd of twenty
came down from Milwaukee with the
Central team. In the first half of
the contest the Kenosha players were
noticeab1y off their game and the half

BRAND STORY AS FALSE
Liberty Church Members Denounce Gossip
Referring to Minister as Malicious Lies

Liberty Church Members Denounee C7oss,r
Referring to Minister as Malicious Lies
The Kenosha Daily Gazette Of Feb.
9th, contained an article headed
Village Gossip" which well merits
its name.
Were it not that many people will
be careless enough to attach some
significance to such preposterous
tales, no attention would be paid to it.
But we, as members and supporters
OF this church, over which the CLERGY
man IN question presides, feel it our
duty TO him, to the Church and the
good name of our community. that we
brand the article as malicious and
w1lful lie. It is true that the Young
clergyman has beautiful wife. be-
loved by all who know her. True.
she had a little babe, but God took it
only six weeks ago, and she, in her
loneliness and grief, is appalled, today
by the indelicacy, inhumanitv aud the
utter brutality that would ALLOW the
probing of wound so fresh, and the
writing of such pack of fa1sehood as.
the one referred to.
It is true that this minister
called frequently at one home in par
ticular, but it was in the direct line of
his duty, and always at the instioa-
ton of his wife, whose bosom friend
the young lady is, and in whom they
repose perfect confidence.
1t is true rotten apples, but these
| only, were thrown, but the aim was
as bad as the deed SO no harm was
done.
The statement was made that the
community says '.It serves 'emright.' .
Ii thescommunity consists of one or
two disgrunt1ed church members,
despicable gossip mongers and the
class that throw rotten apples, that
statement will stand, but only so.
We have perfect confidence in the
sincerity and uprightness of our min
lister and such an action as the assault
upon these two, whom we know to
have been bodybuilding a duty, is..an
| outrage and an insult to all the com
munity.

The sensational investigation Of the
Smoot case has aroused such depth
of feeling in Washington that the
lawmakers are seriously discussing a
constitutional amendment against
po1ygamy. The wise men of the ma
ton ought to be able to figure out
some way to stop the practice without
resorting to Al constitutional amend
ment but if they are unable to alb
solutely prohibit po1ygamy in any
other way then the quicker the
amendment is submitted the. better.

THE House of Representative aim
ed blow at the beef trust yesterday
when a resolution was passed with
out opposition directing Secretary
Corte1you Of the Department of Com
merce and Labor to investigate ''the
causes of the low price of beef cattle
in the United States since July 1st,
1908 and the alleged unusually large
margins between the prices of beef
cattle and the selling price of fresh
beef" 1t has been charged that a
packers combine has been in absolute
control of the markets both for live
and dressed beef for many months
and that prices have been manipulate
ed to suit it's convenience. The Sec
rotary will attempt to discover ali the
facts in the case and should this in
vestigation disclose any unlawful
combination in restraint Of trade
suits will be instituted to compel the
dissolution of the beef trust. 1t is
certain that the margin between the
price of beef cattle and the selling
price of dressed beef is greater than
ever before and the producers are
firmly convinced that they are not
getting their fair share of the profits.

Judge SlOsson Sentences Capt. Charles
Elliott to Light Penalty in
the County Court.
CAPTAIN PROMISES TO REFORM.
Assures the Court That He Will do Better
and Never be Found Guilty of Mis-
deeds.Again-A Short Sentence

Captain Charles Elliott pleaded
guilty to charge of securing money
under false pretenses in the county
court Monday, and Judge S1os-
son sentenced the well known defend
ant to sixty days in the county Jail.
The sentence is probably the lightest
ever given prisoner in this coun-
ty on a similar charge but as Elliott
has been in jail for a number of
weeks, and has promised to reform
the court thought that this would be
sufficient punishment for him. He
began his service at noon today and
will serve his entire time.
The last chapter in the case was a
very interesting one. None Of the
friends of Elliott save his father APP
peared in court with him, and before
the matter was regularly called Judge
Slosson and the father of the defend
ant had long consultation in regard
to the punishment to be melted out to
Elliott. John E. Schmitt who was
one of the men who had cashed a11eg-
ed false checks for Elliott was in
court at the time but he did not make
any complaint against the Captain
and it is understood that the charge
will be withheld pending good behav-
ior. When Captain Elliott entered
his plea of guilty to the charge that
had been brought against him Judge
Slosson addressed him at length and
spoke of the crime that had been COM
n1itted and the punishment it would
warrant. He stated that on account
of the family of Elliot and the long
residence Of his father in Kenosha he
had decided to be as 1enient as possible
in the matter and that he would give
him light penalty hoping that it
would be sufficient to work a reforma-
ton for the future.
Captain Elliott was visib1y moved
by the address of Judge S1osson and
he showed his appreciation of it by
assuring the Judge that after he had
completed his sentence he would
change his life so that he would never
offer chance for a similar charge
against him.
It is understood that the people
who cashed the alleged worthless
checks, presented by Elliott, will be
reimbursed.
Elliott was arrested several weeks
ago on a charge brought by r. L. For
rest, formerly proprietor of the Hotel
Kenosha, which charged him with
passing worthless check. Elliott
secured about twenty-five dollars on
the checks.

The first of the series of games for

SET CAUCUS DATES.
Social Democrats Forced to Give up
Their Plan to Hold an Early Con-
ventiOn in Kenosha.
INTERNAL TROUBLE IS FOUND.

The cry of early campaign on the
part of the Socialists seems to have
a false note as the Social Democratic
committee at it's meeting on last Sat
urday evening decided that the eau
cuses and conventions of the party
could not be held until after the time
set by the Republicans. The eau
cuses of the party will be held on the
evening Of March Is and the city con
vention is scheduled to take place on
THE night of March 10.
At the meeting of the committee
which was held at the Trades and
Labor hall there were representative
of seven of the wards of the city pres
ent and it was decided to place a full
city and ward ticket in the field. No
suggestion has been made as to the
possible candidates of the Socialists
but it has been limited that Alderman
Kaufman, of the Fifth ward, is
prominently spoken of as the candi-
date of the party for mayor.
Some of the members of the party are
IN favor of an older man but the alder
man is recognized as the leader Of the
party in the city and his election to
the City Council has made him ex-
Ieeeding1y strong in political circles.
It is claimed that he would be very
popular candidate with the 1aboring
people Of the city.
In some of the wards there is bare
hand full of the followers of the
tenets of social democracy, but not
withstanding this fact the party will
put ward tickets in the field. The
idea Of the social democrats fusing
with either of the old parties is entire
~ out of the question as the socialists
have decided once aud for all time
that they will not fuse as such an &C
ton would be. in direct violation of the
national platform of the party. The
Social Democrats are planning to use
the spring election to get a line on
the work that is to be done between
now and the state and national cleo
ton. They claim many recruits
from the old parties and it is expected
that this election will make showing
of their strength.
There is some internal trouble in
the party on account of the fact that
some of the older members of the
party are opposed to the party taking
an active part in local politics. Prom
inent among the members of this fac
ton of the party is L. G. Kindt, one
of the older members. He insists that
the party should take no part in the
local elections. In speaking of the
matter today Mr.. Kindt said: $50
cia1istn is a national issue and has
nothing to do with the local elections
IN the cities and towns. If socialism
is to be established it must be by the
nations of the wor1d.'
It is probable, however, that this
seeming dissention will not amount
to much when it comes time to non1i-
nate candidates and the younger mem
bers Of the party are hopeful Of lin
ing up all the men who have been
considered as Social Democrats.
