Council Decides to Make
Further Changes mo New
Fire Department Team
Will be Bought
CITY TO BUILD BREAKWATER
Will Comply with the Request of Allen
Heirs Regarding Improvement of
the Lake Front on North
Side

A long and rather disputatiou7 session
Of the council WIS held Mon lay evenir &.
The principal subject under discussion
was the one which came up last name
ly the ordinance regulating the Fond du
Lac * Northwestern Interurban Rail
road. Although the proposed ordinance
was again read through, number of
further changes seemed desirable and it
was Mt length decided to take no action
until another meeting Residents on
Washington Street sent in II petition,
setting forth that the entering of the
line along that street would be highly
detrimental to business interests The
petition was referred to special com
mittee.
The report of the committee which
had been instructed to look into the
question of purchasing an additional
team for the fire department caused
quite dispute A motion instructing
the fire and water committee to pur
chase team and to hire IN extra man
was lost by close vote.
The matter of the petition of the
Allen heirs that the city should build
break waters opposite Huron Park and
st. Claire streets took up II great deal
of the attention of the council. The
Allen heirs purpose spending about
$4,000 for improving the lake front.
They claim that the lake is gradually
washing the land away and thar their
| labor will be useless unless breakwaters
are built They think that the city
should do this. The expense of build
ing the breakv,aters would, according to
| City Engineer PITT amount to less than
! $1,000 1t was finally decided to enter
| into a contract with the Allen heirs for
the building of the breakwaters.
The city engineer submitted report
regarding the paving Of Was hiugtOn ST.,
in which no recommended the use of u
special paving which should be manu-
factured by the city itself The report
was referred to the street committee.
| The annual report of the city treasur-
er was filed 1t showed balance of
$59, 02l 50 in the treasury
The polling places for the election
next month were fixed as follows First
ward city hall; second ward, Wiudiate
house; third ward, julius Blocks,
fourth ward, Cizek's hall; fifth ward,
John Grosss; sixth ward, Astry's; Sey
enth ward Paul kaestner's :.
After transacting some minor and
routine business the council adjourned.

SON IS REPRIMANDED BY
COUNTY JUDGE CHL0UPEK
FOR UNFILIAL CONDUCT
August LoveranCe, OF Meeme, Turned
His Aged and EnfeebIed Father
Out of the House Town
Board Stepped In

Another case of domestic infelicity
has followed the troubles of the Szce
panskiy in the county court This case
il one Of sons unwilliugness to care
for his aged and enfeebled father. The
son il August Loverance of Meeme and
his father is Ferdinand.
On Feb l5 last August Loverance
called upon the town board Of Meeme
of which Joe Connell is chairman to
take charge OF hiI father, whom he was
unwilling longer to support, He claimed
that his father wouldn't work Chair
man tonnrli, however upon investiga
ton, found that the old man was well
.poken of by every one ~ being willing
to work in 40 far ~ his strength per
mitted Mr. Connell therefore visited
the Loverances to demonstrate with
August who il fairly well fixed tinan
ciaIly. He found the old man with
hands very much swollen and showing
every sign of being in very poor condi-
tion phyHIcally. As argument with the
son produced no effect whatever, Ferdi
nand was finally removed to the farm
of Hubbard Simon.
The son August, however, refused to
contribute II cent to his father support
40 after much argument and useless per
snason on the part of the town officials,
the case was ut last brought up before
Judge Chloupek in the county court
The hearing was set for Monday after
noon August and his lawyer, Ed
Schmitz, of the firm Of SchmitZ, Burke
and Cratic were present H were also
the town board Joe Connell
Dave Lorfrldt and John Bushman, and
the father Ferdinand.
The son told his story and it failed
to make much impression on the court.
The father then told his. He spoke
perfectly nationally maintaining that
he hal been sick, coughing blood, etc,
but that when able he WAS willing to
work Both sides were closely Ques
toned by the court and by Mr. .SchmitZ
and at one time the father and son en-
gagged in prolonged wrapgle, which
had finally to be stopped Enough was
calculated to give the son rather sorry
appearance III the eyes of respectable
men and Judge Chloupek sharply told
him ~ much. He appeared so obsti
nate, however. that even his attorney
took hand and read him II severe lee
ture on the duty of u son to his father.
1t was finally decided that thu son
should be made to sign an agreement to
take his father back and care for him
properly, the father agreeing to work
when able to do SO Both parties con
sented to this and the agreement WAS
then and there drawn up and signed.
The son upon the suggestion OF Chair
man Connell promised to settle with
Hubbard Simon for the board Of the
father for three weeks.

Will SEND TEAM
OF ATHLETES TO
APPLETON MEET
North Side High School Invited
BY Lawrence University To
Enter Intersch0Iastic
Track Contest
EXPENSES OF nine MEN PAID

The North Side High School has re-
ceived and will probably accept an in
vitation to send a track athletic team
to compete at the Northern Wisconsin
Interscholastic meet to be held at the
Fair Grounds in Appleton, May IA.
The invitation is sent by the Law
renee University Athletic Club and is II
regular feature of the University year.
The University allows each school a
sufficient sum to about pay the expenses
of team of eight men and coach.
Each one who enters the meet will
have to make certain qualifying records
in each event. Only those that qualify
will be allowed to enter the contest
This may possibly bar the North Side
from sending a full team of eight. The
schools on the South side will not enter
the contest. Mr. Brandt may, it is
thought, be the coach
A preliminary class meet will take
place some time in the first part of
April. At this meet the schools rep
resentAtives will be chosen. The cap
tain of the school and of the senior class
is John Carey and the athletic manager
is Kenneth Kelley. The captain of
the junior c'ass is John Dunn
ke; of the sophomore class, Mark Tori
son; of the freshman class, Conrad Rog-
ne. Careys specialties are the half ana
the mile run and the shot put; Kelley
Torrison and Rogne will 60 in for the
dashes, while Dumke Will try the shot
put. Other likely candidates are Bert
Hansen, half-mile run and shot put;
Harry Westgate. quarter run and
high jump, and Grover Keller, shot put
