COLONY OF SEA soUIRTs.
Curious Form OF Life with which
Bathers and Small Boys Have
Much Amusement.

Most Of the tanks in the aquari
um have now been refined with
rockwork, says the New York Sun.
Anadyantage of rocSwork for this
purpose is thatit affords places OF
lodgment for various forms of
marine life, both vegetable and
animal, which may be introduced
into the tank either by accident or
by design, to make a further addi-
ton TO the tanks ottfactiyeness.
Already in some of the tanks
here these lesser forms, either
planted or Of accidental growth,
are beginning to appear;a notable
example Of the last-named kind
being found in the salmon rock
fish tanks, in which there may now
be seen, attached to the rocky lin
ing of the tank, great colony,
some thousands in number, Of
the familiae ascidian commonly
known as the sea squirt.
Everybody that has been much
about the water knows the sea
squirt, a leathery creature some
what resembling a rubber water
bottle in shape, with two siphon
tubes like stubby little slightly
curved bottle necks projecting
from its top. The sea squirt takes
its nOurishment as the clam does.
1T absOrbs minute forms of ami
NAL life of various sorts, along
with quantities of water, through
one of its siphon tubes, and after
extracting the nutriment it expels
the water through the other.
The sea squirt clings to the
rocks along shore, and to sea
grass, and it is found in many wa
ters. 1t may be of a dingy white
or gray in color, like those now at
the aquarium, though some sea
squirts are of a dark rich brown,
and there are others of brilliant
red. The largest of those here are
about an inch and a half in length.
Sea squirts attain length of two
or three inches or more.
Bathers who know about them
pick sea squirts from therooks and
play tricks with them by cOllaps-
ing them and so squirting the wa.
ter on fellow bathers. Boys liv-
ing by the water as in fishing
towns, carry sea squirts to school
with them, in their pockets, and
there squeeze the water out Of
them. To collapse one in that man
ner means the end of the sea
squirt.
4 sea squirt left out of water by
the receding tide might lie col
lapsed and fiat, but it would be
more likely to have taken in wa
ter enough to carry it until the
tide covered it again, and it would
he most likely to be found, be
tween tides, in places where il
would get more or less moisture.
If one should be left exposed for a
longer time than usual on some
bare rock, as it might be by an IN.
usually low tide, it would be
burned and shriveled and de
strOyed by the suns hot rays.
They were probably introduced
into this tank with shrimp put
into it as food for the rockfsh.

BOASTS POLITICIANS
John Alexander, the First Apostle
Compares the Politicians to
a Pack of Cards.
POLITICAL SERMON AT ZION.

Instead of being government of
the people, by the people, and for the
people it should be of the people, by
God, and for God"
John Alexander, the first apostle of
Zion, said this yesterday afternoon in
the course of sermon on politics.
The subject of his sermon was, '"The
Nations Choice of a President"
''zion will use it's influence in a
manner pleasing to God" he said,
land that is what all should do.
zion's theocratic party is for the rule
of God.
''The politicians of today may be
compared to pack of cards. The
more you shuttle them the dirtier they
get. Likewise, the more politicians
are thrown here and there, turned in
and out, the dirtier they become.
s"The people of this land never can
be wisely governed so long as they
govern themselves. Man never can be
wise so long as he wants to advise.
Man was made by God and was made
AhANA III " HILL AA1N1O1OAOS 1Od SA4OLllNl
rule and we intend that he shall rule,
"The issue of our party stands be-
fore the whole world. When we are
strong enough to elect ticket as we
do in Zion we will put up national
ticket. Our great issue will put to
blush the other issues of the wor1d.N
"Our question is almost too great
to talk about while that of man is too
foolish to talk of. The rule of man
is drunken and disso1ute one. What
we see smells of stinkpots, beerpots,
and all kinds of nasty pots, and is
enough to prove that the mind is
made weaker.
Chow can man of this character
rnle? The majority of our electors
are of this type of men. What we
should DO is to follow our national
hymn and vote as we sing, to make
God the king of our nation. That
time will come, and in a very short
time
The apostle said he did not advise
voting the Prohibition ticket, because
the party is too weak.

REV.KUNKLE RESIGNS
The Popular Pastor of the First
Baptist Church Resigns to
Take up New Work.
WILL BE GREATLY MISSED.

The Rev. E. C. Kunk1e, of the First
Baptist church of this city, Sunday
morning handed in his resignation to
the pastorate in the Kenosha field, to
take effect on or before November LIST.
Mr.. Kunkle states that he wishes to
get away before this date, if possible,
to take up his work in his new field at
Scottsda1e, Pa. Mr.. Kunk1e has but
just returned from a four weeks visit
in his old home at Wi11iamsport, Pa,
and while there this new field was
opened to him. While Scottsda1e is
no larger than Kenosha in population,
still the field for work, Mr.. Kunk1e
thinks, is much better.
Mr.. Kunk1e came to Kenosha on
the first of April, 1901, from the Uni
versity of Chicago, where he was at
the time pursuing his theological
studies. When he came here he was
still in the student period and went
back to the University in June of the
same year to take his degree.
Mr.. Kunkle stated that he has been
pleased with his work here in the past
and has received nothing but the
friendliest and kindest of treatment
during his sojourn in the midst of his
flock here. He has made a host of
friends that he regrets much at 1eav-
ing behind and the members of his
parish here are most regretfu1 at his
contemplated. departure.

KENOSHA WINS OUT.
Waukegan Defeated in a Sharp
Game Sunday Afternoon by
a Score of s to 8
KILLIAN PITCHES GOOD BALL
Game was Close and Exciting and Con
siderable Waukegan Money was
Won by Kenosha Sports

The Gods were propitious yesterday
to the baseball fans and the skies
were smiling to greet two thousand of
the faithful at Central park, who
assembled to watch Kenosha beat
Waukegan, their old rivals, to the
tune of six to three. The multitude
assembled early and the great cheers
could he heard in Kenosha, Killian
did the arm work for Kenosha and
Bubser, the erstwhi1e Kenosha pitch
er oficiated in the box for Waukegan.
The first score was made in the
third inning by Waukegan and the
Southern fans went wild when Bubser
came Waiting over the home plate
for the initial count, and bedlam
broke loose when a minute later Will
kinson amb1ed across for the second
run. The Waukeganites at that min
ute couldn't see how they could lose
and they paraded the field in the exub-
erance of their JOY. Kenosha didn't
count that inning and in the next the
Waukegan crowd went to the mat
without a count. Then Kenosha' S
10y began and in the fourth Reitz
amb1ed across the home platter for
Kenosha's first count. Ebert followed
closely and the score was tied at two
to two. Thereupon the game took on
a large amount of excitement and it
was anybody's contest. The cheering
became tremendous and money was
offered freely on both sides.
When Waukegan came to bat in the
next they went out in one, two, three
order. Hermann then stepped to the
bat with a serene smile and landed on
the initial sack with confidence SUI

Waukegan crowd disconso1ate came
down town to tell how it happened ant
later to take their special train and
the Steamer Marquette back to Their
suburban village.

the position congressman Cooper
would finally take in the factiona1
fight which has disrupted the re-
publican party in the state it was
removed last evening when the
congressman presided at the La

since the state convention last May
various interested parties have been
endeavoring to get an expression of
opinion on the state fight from Mr..
Cooper, but he has preserved deep
silence and theoretically no one knew
where he stood. BY accepting the in
vitation to preside at the meeting last
night Mr.. Cooper has at last indicated
which side he favors. His decision
will occasion no surprise in this

A Clever Forger Operates in the
Village of Trevor and Ar
rouses Great Excitement.
MAKES GOOD HIS ESCAPE
Officers Have C1ew to His Whereabouts
and it is Believed That He Will
be Apprehended Today.

Late yesterday afternoon the little
town OF Trevor in the western part of
this county was greatly wrought up
by the discovery that clever swind1er
by the name of Richard Rutler had
been operating there.
The man had been working in the
locality for some time, in fact long
enough to al1ay any suspicion.
About three O'Clock yesterday af-
ternoon he took a check to Carey
and Montgomery's store in the viii
liage of Trevor for the sum of $50. so
and requested them to cash it. The
check was on the bank of Antioch
and bore the signature of Pierce
Bros. per McDanie1s. Mr.. Montgom-
cry cashed the check for the man
thinking it all right.
The forger from there went over to
Silver Lake and there got Mr.. Chas.
Bernhoft, a business man of that
place, to cash check similar to the
first in the sum of $74.5O.
AS near as can be learned the for
ger then took the first train for Chi
cago and made a hasty exit. About
an hour later both victims discovered
that they had been cheated and set
upon foot immediate inc uiries as to
the whereabouts of the criminal.
They soon got informatio that he
had left for Chicago and at once com
municated with the Chicago police to
watch out for the man and arrest him
on his arrival in that city. But the
man was too clever to be caught nap
| ping and when the train pulled into
| Chicago he was not among the pas
sengers. It is supposed that he got
off at some small station and took his
way into the city by some other route.
The victims and some of their
friends at once communicated with
the Kenosha officers and the district
attorney advised their going into the
city this morning to help the Chicago
police in their efforts to locate the fell
/ low.
A fugitive warrant has been issued
for the man in Chicago and it is ex.
pected that he will be apprehended
today. The forger will be brought
back to Kenosha for trial, requisition
papers being issued for that purpose
If necessary, though it is believed
that Ruther if caught will come with
out the need of resorting to this ex-
trenity.

great weight on the wheel which
passed over him, he had sustained
no serious injuries.
