SNOW EGGS.

This is an entirely new sort of break
fast dish that is greatly appreciated by
most people, and that can be especially
recommended 10 invalids or those whose
digestion is not strong. Butter thor
oughly the inside of as many custard
cups as the eggs you wish to use, which
are best prepared separately. Separate
the white from the yolk of the egg and
beat the white 10 very stiff froth. Put
this into the buttered cup, making a
hole in the middle in which to put the
yolk which is not beaten but left un-
broken as it comes from the egg. Squeeze
ON top Of this about three drops of lemon
Juice. Three or four other eggs can be
quickly prepared in the same way and
when all are ready the cups should be
set in saucepans of boiling water, letting
the water come about halfway up the
cup and cook thus until the white is set
firm. The heat will make the froth rise
so as to nearly fill the cup. Invert a
warm plate over each cup and turn out
each egg. Sprinkle chopped parsley on
top and serve at once

The people of Kenosha through
their representatives in the council
have always dealt fairly with Presi-
dent Arnold and the street railway
chise was rendered null and void by
the decision of the Supreme Court,
Mr.. Arnold was caught in a tight
place. Acting in good faith he had
invested thousands of dollars in a
property which the decision of the
court rendered va1ue1ess. If the peo-
pie of the city had been disposed to
be unreasonable in the matter of a
new franchise Mr.. Arnold would have
lost his money, but there was no dis
position anywhere to take any undue
advantage of the predicament in
which he found himself. He was
given a new franchise on as favorable
terms as he could hope to secure any
where. No attempt was made to hold
him up. And it may be recalled in
this connection that at that time there
was great difference of opinion as to
the value of such a line to the city.
Many of our citizens believed that the
line would never be a success, and
that instead of being a benefit it
would be detriment to the city, but
all were determined that since Mr..
Arnold had invested heavily in the
line, he should be given a chance to
make it paying property. Since
then most, if not all, of our people
have been converted to the belief
that the line is positive benefit to
Kenosha, and they want to see the
system completed, without delay.
Now is the time for Mr.. Arnold to
show his appreciation of past favors
by extending the service to the south
limits of the city. The people in that
section want the service and they
should have it. It is not as if the
company was being asked to make an
unproftab1 bic investment. That branch
of the line would pay as we'll as any
part of the system, and it should be
built this summer.

THE direct methods of American
diplomacy have again been success
full. The stern demands of the United
States, backed by irst-c1ass squad
ron, have resulted in the release of
the American citizen Ion Perdicaris
and his English companion by the
Moorish bandit Raisu1i, and it will
not now be necessary for the govern
ment to proceed to extremes. The
fact that the United States is fully
prepared and under the present adj
ministration ready and willing to
take any action necessary for the
prote ction of it's citizens in foreign
lands, is the best guaranty of safety.
A few more lessons like the one just
given the Moors and our gentlemen
rovers abroad" will no longer have
to take out English papers when
going into semi civilized or barbarous
countries.

WHILE the City Council is figuring
some way to increase the capacity of
the sewer system of the city of Keno
sha, why not extend the sewers that
are already in and thus help out the
property owners who have been pay
ing their taxes for the past ten years
in order to put in sewers for the bal
ance of the city both on the north and
south sides. Only last year very
expensive sewer was put in over on
Lake avenue, which, in addition to
the cost to the abutting property,
cost the city large amount of money.
This large sum was paid by all the
property owners, the Balm subdivi-
sion, for instance, paying it's share as
it has done for the past ten years. A
number of the aldermen seem to
think that because the Balm subdi-
vision has never asked the city for
anything but has taken care of it's
own streets and it's own cross-wa1ks
(a1though it was the city's work. that
the subdivision is new to the city
and they call it NEW SUBDIVISION
and it must wait for improve
ments. AS matter of fact this sub
division was taken into the city al
most at the start of the sewer system
- OpA
in the Balm subdivision has paid it's
FULL SHARE of taxes for the building
of the present sewer system, and the
lots of this subdivision have each and
every one helped pay for every sewer
connection made with the system.
Why, then, should they be denied the
extension of the system? Take Jenne
street and Garden street; the owners
of lots there have asked the city to
extend the sewer, which is fifteen feet
deep and fifteen inches in diameter,
without Co.'S to the city. This sewer
empties into a three-foot sewer on
Grand avenue, and is large enough
and deep enough to take care of the
sewerage of that whole district, yet
the sewers are not extended. The
same may be said of the district south
of Prairie avenue, where, we under
stand, there is a sewer eighteen
inches in diameter and eleven feet
deep, within three blocks of the city
limits. Get busy, gentlemen, and ex-
tend the sewers wherever possible, if
they are needed.

ress, and under the present conserva-
tive management the Association is
one of the strongest as we'll as the
most useful of our financial institu-
tons. The association makes it pos
sib1e for every citizen, no matter how
small his earnings, to own his own
home, and property-owning, tax
paying class of citizens is what Keno
sha needs. No man without invest
ments here can be expected to work
as hard for clean, progressive NUM-
pal government as man whose prop
erty holdings give him direct per-
sona1 interest in all the expenditures
of the city, and the Building and

bic for every man to own his home is
doing great work both for it's indi-
vidua1 stockholders and the city.

MISS ROBLEE A BRIDE
Former KenOsha School Teacher is
Married to Harold NJ. Dickinson,
at Windsor, Canada,
WEDDING WAS A ROMANTIC ONE

Cards were received in Kenosha
Wednesday evening announcing the
marriage of Miss Genevieve Rob1ee, a
daughter of the Rev. H. S. Rob1ee,
former pastor of the First Congrega-
tiona1 church here, and Harold S.
Dickerson.
The wedding, which was a most ro-
mantle one, occurred at Windsor, in
Canada, on the sixteenth of last jan
uary and the public announcement of
it has just been made to the relatives
of the bride.
The cards are sent out by Mr.. and
Mrs. Rob1ee, but they tell little of the
pretty story connected with the we'd
ding. Miss Rob1ee and Mr.. DECKER
son had sbeen friends for some time
and Mr.. Dickerson was frequent
caller at the Rob1ee home Gin St.
Joseph, Mich. While the marriage
had nots been opposed by the parents
of Miss Rob1ee, there was no arrange
ment made for an immediate marriage
and last ] January Miss Rob1ee went to
w 1uCSO1 1O1 d WISH WILL 111SuOS lI1GIC.
A short time later Mr.. Dickerson
slipped over to the Canadian city and
he and Miss Rob1ee secured a license
andS were united in marriage. Mr..
Dickerson returned to his home in ST.
Josephs and his wife remained with
her friends in the Canadian city. She
returned home at the end Of her visit
but mades no announcement of the
marriage to her friends and parents
until short time ago. The parental
forgiveness has been extended and
Mr.. and Mrs. Dickerson will go to
housekeeping in St. Joe.
Miss Rob1ee was formerly one of
the best known of the younger set IN
Kenosha. She was a graduate of the
Kenosha High School and had been a
teacher in the Kerosha schools for
several years. The announcement of
her marriage is the sole topic in
school circles today.

EVERY person who rides wheel or
drives horse or an automobile ought
to have large sign pasted in his or
her hat, ''Keep to the right Every
day you can see PERSONA large
number of them too-ca1m1y going up
the left side of the street and numer-
Gus times at the risk Of getting in
jured. This applies particularly to
wheel riders, who will ride on our
busiest streets in direct opposition to
the rules and laws of right-of-way.
One of the most dangerous corners
for riding and driving is the Y. M. G.
A. corner at the intersection of Main
and South streets. The cars come
from the west and turn onto Main
street at this corner and the street for
about two hundred feet is on an angle
before it turns into Main street proper
so that cars, teams or wheels are out
of sight when only short distance
away. Nevertheless, if you will take
the LTOQDlS W SlduO Ou TIC . Nl' ". AS
corner any day for half an hour you
will see over fifty per cent of all the
teams and wheels coming from the
south and going north into Main
street invariably cross the street rail-
way track and go north on the left
side Of the street. Why this is it
would be hard to tell, for if they
would only keep on their own side of
the street they would save crossing
the railway track. Nevertheless the
fact exists Now, if every one who
has occasion to turn north into Main
street at the Y. M. c. A. corner will
remember to keep to the right, it will
greatly lessen the chances of bad
accident some day.
