MAY CAUSE A SPLIT
Meeting Of Milk Shippers HeIdat Court
House Saturday Was UnauthOr-
lied and New Call Issued.
OTHER UNIONS TAKE UP FIGHT

y There is trouble brewing among the
milk shippers of the County and it is
probable that the action taken by the
shippers at the meeting held Satur-
day afternoon will be contested.
Secretary Henry Lubeno, who was
elected as secretary of the Union a
year ago, has sent out a call for a
meeting of the shippers on next Mon
day. Shippers1 who were not at the
meeting on Saturday declare that
there was no authority for the meet
ing. The meeting was called by Geo.
Kirk, who was afterward elected as
president of.the local branch. The
secretary has the power to. call the
meeting, but no call had been issued
until the one sent out today.
is probable that at the meeting on
Mondayssa new. set of officers will be
elected, and this will cause split
among the dairymen of the County.
This will not, however, interfere with
the fight against the Milk Shipping
Agency, as all of the men, regardless
of faction, ARE in favor of fight
against the Chicago company, The
declaration of independence as made
at the meeting here on Saturday is
being taken up by other unions along
the line and thel Agency will have a
fight Of large proportions on its hand
before itgsett1es.with the farmers.
An agent!of the.Kenosha union will
be sent to the meetings of the other
unions to urge the fight. None of the
suits against the' Kenosha County
farmers have been filed and it is not
thorght that they will be filed until
after the meeting of the Central Milk
Shippers Union, which will be held
in Chicago in1March.

POISONED BY ERROR.
Charles Pride, Time Keeper at Ieffery
PIant.Drinks an Ounce OF Chic
reform and Laudanum.
STOMACH PUMP SAVES HIS LIFE.

81 Charles Pride, ti1nekeeper of the
Thomas B. Jeffery Automobile Com
pany, is in critical condition at his
room at No. 3101Ridge street son ac-.
count of an overdose of .1audanun1
and ch1oroform. tits stated that last
night the young man drank almost an
ounce of each of the drugs and yet he
.issti11 alive and will recover. The
taking of the poison was pure acct
dent. All day yesterday Pride had,
been suffering from toothache. He
came down town last night intending
to have the tooth pulled, but failing
to find a dentist he went to one of the
drug stores and asked for remedy.
The drug man gave him two bottles,
one containing an ounce of 1audanum
Pride returned to his room and later
in the evening took the greater guam
tity of the two bottles, supposing that
this was the way that it was to have
been used. It is safe to say that the
young man did not feel the toothache
curing the night. s. $3.50 81
This morning when other people in
the house went to Pride s room to call
him they found him in a condition of
utter collapse. DR.. Spa1ding was
'hurried1y summoned to the house and
worked over the. man for several
hours before he was restored to con-
sciousness. H With the aid of a
stomach pump DR., Spa1ding man
aged to remove the poison from the
mans stomach. He is still very i'll
this afternoon, but the doctor thinks
he will recover.
How Pride ever escaped death is a
marvel to the physicians. A half an
ounce of 1audanum is considered a
dose large enough to cause death un-
her nearly any conditions

MOB ATTACKS DoWIE.
Prophet OF Zion City Given Rough Hand
ling on His Arrival at sydney.

John Alexander Dowie's world trip
began with a calamity, if the reports
from Sydney, Australia, are to be be-
llieved. The following news report of
the hot reception accorded the self
styled Elijah has been received from
Sydney today:
John Alexander Dowie, the self
styled Elijah II, = received some of
the worst treatment of his career
when he attempted to hold one of his
|proselyting meetings here. There
had been much advance notice of. the
prophet So coming. to Sydney, and
when he arrived there.was mob on
hand which greeted him with boots Of
derision and jeers. Undaunted, how
ever, he held the meeting.
No sooner had Dowie begun berat-
ing the people of Sydney than the
crowd, switch filled the hall and
thronged outside on the street to the
number of 5000 drove Elijah IL from
the platform and he escaped through
a rear exit.
|s9kThe mob outside caught sight Of
Dowie running down side street and
went after him with yell. The po-
lice were power1ess to stop them.
Dowie, in spite of his avordupois and
short legs, covered the ground to his
hotel before the mob could reach him,
and did not stir from his room for the
remainder of the afternoon and even
ing.
Late the same night, thoroughly
frightened, Dowie left Sydney sec
reilly by train, going to the railroad
station in a guarded coach.'

Leaders Of English Lutheran Church
in America to Attend the Ded;ca-
lion OF Kenosha Church.
INTERESTING CEREMONIES SET.
Church to be Thrown Open to the Congre-
cation on Next Sunday History of
the Church and Congregation.

Formal invitations have been sent
out for the dedication Of the New Eng
1ish Lutheran church which will take
place on next Sunday and the event
will bring to Kenosha many Of the
leaders Of the English Lutherans not
only in Wisconsin but iii the United
States. The names of the men who
pretty Kenosha church are the best
known names on the roster Of the
church. The church is now being
decorated for the dedication and it is
expected that hundreds of English
Lutherans from Chicago, Racine,
Milwaukee and Waukegan will visit
Kenosha and take part in the cere-
monies Of the opening Of the new
temple.
The struggle of the little congrega-
ton for church home has been one
that has enlisted the sympathy and
support Of nearly all the religious
people Of the city and the effort Of the
members has been rewarded by the
building of one of the finest churches
in the city. The new building has
cost more than twelve thousand dol
lars and more than half of the amount
will be. paid before the doors are
opened for the dedication. When the
Rev. p. E. Bais1er came to Kenosha
in 1901 to organize society of the
English 4Lutherans the church had
but fourteen members and they were
scattered all. over. the city Meetings
were held at Gronquist hall on Park
street. But the minister was young
and full of vigor and he kept hammer
ing away until now the congregation
is composed of ninety members and
the Sunday school, the recruiting
place of the church, has member
ship of over IT'S.
Lutheran principles hayef been
strong in Kenosha for years and the
Eng1ish1c hurch is getting as mem
bers many of the younger generation
whose parents were members Of
either the German, Danish or Swedish
| Lutheran church. This movement of
the younger members to the English
church meets with1itt1e opposition as
the members, of hthe Older churches
seem to think that all Ll1therans are
members of one great family. The
services marking the dedication will
begin on Sunday morning when SER
mon will be preached by the Rev. r.
r. Weidner, D. D., Il. L. D., president
of the Chicago English Lutheran
seminary. The dedicatofy service
| proper will be held in the afternoon
at half past two O'Clock.
The dedicatory sermon will be
preached by the Rev. G. H. Trabert,
d. d., President of the English Luth-
eran Synod of the Northwest. just
| before the sermon the ritua1istic serv-
ice of the church in regard to dedica-
| ton of churches will be carried out
| by the pastor, the Rev. p. E. Baisler,
assisted by the visiting members of
the clergy. At. the evening services
| two short addresses will be delivered,
one by the Rev. w. Il. Frick, d. d.,
Pastor of the Church of the Redeenler
! in Milwaukee and another by the Rev.
| A. G. Anda, the Western Field Secre-
tary of the General Council of the
| English Lutheran Church. The ex-
ercises will close with praise serv-
| ice.

Former Dawson Negro Is Having

Caught with the goods on him, IN
the form OF decoy letter, Fred Hill, a
negro mail agent on the Central rail-
road, is up against the postal author
tiles and will. face the music OF rihing
letters on his car.
Hill is one of the best educated and

the mails about dozen years ago.
For some time past, 1t is said, valua-

mails. and for some reason Hill fel!
under suspicion. A few days ago
decoy letter was mailed at Fort

proved the undoing of Agent Hill. he
''caught" the letter en- route, and then
the marshal caught him, and he is now
in Jail in default of a 81, 800 bond await

with several other thefts, aggregating
