Young Mems Christian AS
ISOLATION viii Provide
Quarters

The members of the military com.
pany of this city will not be without
social and entertainment advantages
at the big encampment near Tacoma
next month. The Young Mems Chris
tiaD Association of Oregon, Wash.
ington and Idaho have united in pro
viding large tents in which an abund-
ance of good reading matter will be
provided, including the local papers
from the towns from which the com,
panies go. Free writing materials
will also be provided, so that the
boys will not need to take any sta
tionery with them. Band concerts
and entertainments of various sorts
will probably be arranged, games will
be provided, ice water will be on tap,
and other privileges will be afforded.
Every one of the 1000 men at the
camps will be welcomed at the Y. M.
c. A. tents and one of the best fea.
lures of the whole thing is that it
costs the boys not cent. To be sure,
it will cost the association a good
round SUM but money will be pro
vided by business men, who know the
good work the associations are doing.
During the military encampments
in Washington the past two years, the
associations have provided outfits sim
liar to those being arranged for this
year, only on a much smaller scale,
and they were used to the limit. Last
year the 1000 troops at the Washing
ton encampment wrote over 200 let
ters a day in the association tent The
encampments in many states have
similar outfits, and the army officers
welcome them and give special loca.
tions, realizing the great benefit to
the men.

WHITEHEAD SPEAKS.
StaIwart Leader In Wisconsin Politics Ad-
dresses Large Crowd Here

John M. Whitehead, of GAINESVILLE,
the representative of Rock county in
the State Senate, and one kof the
leaders of the Sta1warts in the State,
was the guest of Kenosha on Sunday
and addressed large crowd of peo-
pie at the auditorium of the Y. M. c..
A. on Sunday afternoon.
Senator Whitehead spoke on the
subject, ''The Simplicity of the Chris
tian Life, = and made a strong plea
for Christianity among the business
men Of the country. During his short
stop in Kenosha Senator Whitehead
did not talk politics with anyone, nor
did he call on the men who had been
his followers two years ago. He is
still interested in the political situa-
ton in the. State, but insists on keep
ing his religious and political work as
far separated as possible.

batter, could not do better than to fly
out to Clark.
The Kenosha team tried hard to
score in the seventh, and in the
eighth they managed to make good.
Horn, the first man up, sent the ball
out for a good, clean two-base hit.
Donavan made good with sacrifice,
and Mahoney advanced him another
peg with a similar play. Then Brown
lined out pretty single, and before
the bail could be fe1ded both Horn
and Mahoney had scored.
In the ninth the Kenosha boys
started out like winners, but theSpau1-
dings proved to be too strong, and the
game ended with two of the Kenosha
men holding down the bases.
The game was in no way disap-
pointnent to the fans, as they saw
that the Kenosha team has the MAX
ing of strong playing team, and
they will have the cordial support of
the base ball lovers in the city.
The team will meet the Marquettes
of Chicago at the park on next Sun
day afternoon.

AFTER GOLF GROUND
Chicago, KenOsha and Milwaukee
Railway Company Sets Stakes for
Line Through Country Club.
RIGHT OF WAY MAY BE GRANTED

The worknen of the Chicago, Ke-
nosha, and Milwaukee Electric Rail-
way company have planned to invade
the limits of the city of Kenosha, and
the stakes for the right of wayfor the
road have been set in the grounds now
occupied by the Kenosha Country
Club. The stakes are set on the ex-
IRENE Eastern side of the property
and it is evident that the managers of
the company are preparing to begin
q hight for the condemnation of the
property if necessary.
However, it is possible that the
right of way may be secured for the
company without fight as the own
ers of the property are seemingly in
favor of the building of the road
through the property if the company
will accept the right of way that they
will offer. The owners of the prop
erty have proposed right of way
fifty feet west of the one marked out
by the company, and it seems reason
able to believe that the company will
dS ACC " dCCSPl ILLS route. 1t Is
claimed that the line will be built
during the next three months.
In the meantime, President Arnold
has begun to take steps to build the
line of the Kenosha Electric Railway
company to the city limits and esti-
mates are now being secured for the
reconstruction of line on South Main
and Exchange streets to connect the
lines of the Chicago, Kenosha and
Milwaukee company with the lines in
the center of Kenosha. These esti-
mates will be completed in another
week and it is possible that the line N
Kenosha will be built before the close
of the present summer. General
superintendent Russell claims that
the line in the city can be completed
in thirty days.
AS the workmen of the through
line are now at work in Zion City it is
Thought that the line will be extended
both north and south from that point.

BOARD OF TRUSTEES oUsTED.
Resignation of One Followed by Request
That All of Asylum Trio Go at Racine

Resignation of One Followed by Request
That All of Asylum Trio Go at Racine.
George Peterson created a sensa-
ton in the special meeting Of the Ra-
cine county board of supervisors Mon
day by rendering his resignation as a
trustee of the county asylum. The
board called Mr.. Peterson and Messrs.
Graham and Crane, the other two
trustees, before it and asked for an
explanation. Mr.. Peterson then
stated that it was impossible for him
to continue in Office. He believed the
expense of operating the farm was an
injustice to the county.
Superintendent Oversen and Trus-
tees Graham and Crane endeavored
to show that the expenses were not
heavier than usual, and that the COWS
on the farm were paying. A spirited
discussion ensued as to whether it
was necessary to have board of trus-
tees until the new asylum was erected,
and the resignation Of Mr.. Peterson
having been accepted, Trustees Gra-
ham and Crane also were requested to
resign. They will comply tomorrow,
and Superintendent Oversen will con-
duct the farm and have full control
until the new building is erected.
The plans of Chandler & Park for a
new $4,000 building were accepted
and bids are to be received for con-
structing the building on June T.
William Shenkenberg was elected
chairman Of the board, and Peter Nell
son vice chairman.

KENosHA MEN BUNcoED.
Make an Effort TO get Good Positions and
Pay Good Money to a swindler

Suckers are still biting, and there
IS Chicago fisherman for this sort
OF fish who has discovered a timely
scheme by which he has been able to
land a number of people from Keno
sha. The bait is certainly a good one,
A short time ago an advertisement
appeared in the Chicago papers which
presented an a11uring proposition to
men who desired to secure work at
the exposition at St. Louis. The let
ter was sent out by a man who had
offices in the Adams Express Conpa-
ny's building in Chicago. and of
course number of the people in Ke-
nosha lost no time in answering the
ad. The boys wanted to get right in
on the ground floor, and they cot in
Just soon enough to get swind1ed out
OF all the money they invested in the
affair. In the first place they were
forced to lay down So to get a per-
sonal interview with the great director
OF employments at the exposition, and
when they met him in his coy office
in Chicago he managed TO secure
some SIS more out of each applicant
in order to show their good faith.
There seems to have been a heap of
the boys who had good faith in the
fellow, for when he decamped from
the Office in Chicago on last Friday it
is claimed that he carried away more
than $500 of the money that had
been deposited by men anxious to Sc
cure employment. Thus far it has
been learned that two Kenosha men
were caught on the scheme, and it is
probable that a score of others are
just waiting to get IN on it. There are
many OF these fake employment bu-
reaus which have been organized for
the sole purpose of catching people
who are anxious to secure employment
in St. Louis during the fair, and a
good plan is to keep the job you have
and steer clear of all bureaus.

Saturday Evening.
SWEDES HAVE BIG CELEBRATION.

Saturday evening was great time
for the Scandinavian people in Keno
sha, for at that time the Danish Bro
therhood celebrated it's twelfth
anniversary while Society Svea ce1e-
brated the eleventh anniversary of
it's formation in Kenosha.
The Danish celebration was held at
Simmons hall and it was the greatest
in the history of the society in Keno
sha. More than two hundred of the
members of the brotherhood and their
lady friends sat down at the pretti1y
decorated tables and spent the even
ing in feasting and merrymaking.
The banquet was served at seven
O'Clock, and after the tables had been
cleared number of the leading mem
hers of the brotherhood responded to
toasts. Among the speakers were
School Commissioner james Larsen,
S. Bergstrom and Peter Johnson, all
of whom are officers of the brother
hood.
After the speeches were over the
tables were removed from the hall and
Stemm Brothers full orchestra fur
nished music for the dancing, which
continued until early morning.
Swedes Have Big Celebration.
While the Danes were making mer-
ry at Simmons hall the Swedish people
of the city to the number of three
hundred gathered at Castle hall to OBJ
serve the eleventh anniversary of the
foundation of the Society Svea. A
banquet was served during the earlier
hours Of the evening, after which the
guests were entertained with musical
program furnished by the North Star
Quartette Of Chicago and the Kenosha
Male Octette. Later in the evening
the banquet was turned into an in
formal dance, the music being fur
nished by the Jacoby orchestra. The
society is in splendid condition and
its membership now includes many OF
the leading Swedish people of the
city.

Edward Smith, a Well Known Ger
tractor, has an Exciting Ex-
perience Sunday.
MASKED MEN GET LITTLE BOOTY.
Two Men Thought to Have Followed Smith
From Congress Hall Thinking he
Had Large sum of Money.

The ho1d-up man with the mask and
day morning, and Edward Smith a
mason contractor, was his victim.
Smith was going toward his home on
South Rowland avenue when two
masked men confronted him, and one
of them stuck a revolver in Smiths
face and demanded that he disgorge.
Smith was a little slow to comply and
the second man went through his
clothing. The men managed to Sc
cure eleven cents for their trouble.
Smith was not injured in the ho1d-up.
Mr.. Smith had been working for a
number of North Side parties in build
ing foundations, and last Saturday
evening he went over to Congress
hall to attend dancing party. At
the party he met the men whom he
had been working for and they in
sisted on paying him for his labor.
The money received was quite large
sum, and Smith noticed that several
of the men in the hail had eagerly
watched the transfer of the funds.
He feared at these fellows might
attempt to get possession of the
money, and before he started for his
home on the extreme Southwest side
of the city, he went to one of his
friends on the North side and asked
that he be allowed to leave the money
IN safe for the night.
Free of the money Smith felt at
ease and started home. He noticed
that two men followed him for quite a
distance, but when he reached Mil
waukee avenue he got on car and
rode as far as the West Side hotel.
He seemed to have lost the two men
who had been following him. He
stopped at the hotel for half an hour
and it was early Sunday morning
when he again started home. He got
off the car at the Rowland avenue
crossing and had just started to walk
down the avenue to his home when an
unknown man, his face securely hid
den behind mask made of a red
handkerchief barred his path. The
man stuck revolver against Smith,
head and demanded his money. The
latter started to argue and the ban
dit, in order to show that he meant
business, fired the revolver and the
bullet went whizzing past Smiths
head. This settled the matter and
Smith allowed the man to have his
way.
At this period of the interesting
proceedings a second man, masked
similar to the first, appeared on the
scene and conducted a systematic
search of Smiths pockets. They got
just eleven cents, and were; greatly
disappointed in not getting large
sum. In searching for the money
they even took off Smiths socks.
When they had completed their work
they commanded Smith to walk
straight South, and after he had
started the men began to run.
Smith could not identify either of
his assai1ants. The matter was re-
ported to the police but they have not
been able to find any trace of the men.

G. o. WEBSTER MURDERED
Travelling Man Well Known In Kenosha
Dies at Grand Rapids. Mich.


g. Q. Webster, travelling man from
Chicago, we'll known in Kenosha, met
with a mysterious death at Grand
Rapids, Mich, last Saturday, and it
seems evident that he was murdered
by thugs with the motive of robbery.
Webster had gone to Grand Rapids
with several hundred dollars, and
when he was brought to his hotel in
a dazed condition Saturday morning
he had but one dollar in his pockets.
He had been IN the hotel but 2 short
time when he became very i'll and
died. An examination showed that
one of his shoulders had been broken
and his skull crushed. 1t is supposed
that he was assaulted by.thugs and
robbed. Efforts are being made to
discover the identity of the man who
brought him to the hotel.

TO EXTEND THE LINES
Citizens Telephone Company Said to
be Negotiating for Purchase of
the Pleasant Prairie Line
WISCONSIN co. HAS A CONTRACT

1t is reported on authoritative
sources today that a deal is pending
for an absolute sale of the property of
the Pleasant Prairie Telephone COM
pany IN this county to the Citizens
Telephone and Te1egra ph:: company.
The deal is not yet closed but it is
claimed that it will be closed during
the present week. Five Hundred dol
lars is alleged to have been paid to
bind the bargain and this will be a
portion of the purchase price of six
teen hundred dollars, which has bee
agreed upon by the two companies.
The purchase of the Pleasant Prai-
RE lines will mean much to the Citi-
zens' company as at present the
control of this line by the Wisconsin
company has greatly handicapped the
work of the new company in uniting
the business of the county towns.
The Wisconsin company has a five
years contract with the Pleasant
Prairie company but the leaders of
the Citizens company have held that
this contract is worthless. The Wis
consin company's managers in Keno
sha claim that they are not worrying
in any way in regard to the proposed
deal as they claim to have plans by
which they will build lines into all
parts of the county. This work has
been planned for number of years
and the only thing that has restrained
the Wisconsin company is the terms
of the contract with the Pleasant
Prairie company.
OF course, if the Citizens ly
buys the Pleasant Prairie lines hit
will at once pc started as the W. con-
sin company will be slow to vacate
their contract rights until they have
arranged for the building of more
complete system of toll lines in the
county.
George Woman, formerly of this
city, has organized a company at
Waukegan which will engage extern
sive1y in the manufacture of hats and
caps. The company will be known as
the Yeoman-G Gray company.
