WASP HAS DAINTY HABITS.
Curiously Delicate Combs That Legs
Are Provided With for Tidy
ing Process.

"Wasps are exceedingly dainty
in their habits" says a writer in
the Pilgrim, "and in order to graf
lily their instinct for ~neatness to
the utmost nature has provided
them with a set of marvelously
delicate combs and brushes. If
we look closely at the wasp's
legs we will find that each bears
on its outermost long joint two
small, movable spines, known az
the APPEAL spurs, and if we exam
inc these with a magnitying glass
each is seen to be provided with a
row of fine teeth, so that the ap-
paratus answers for coarse and
fine toOthed comb.
'The tidying process consists of
various perfectly definite steps,
usually taking place in a p%artic-
ular sequence. First, it passes
both front legs over the face
from above downward, and after
repeating this movement several
times draws them through the
jaws. This is to remove any for
eign substance which may have
collected on them, The legs are
then passed backward from the
forehead, much as we should
smooth back our hair. The wings
are then stroked again and again
from the base to the tip, although
the most careful observer would
fail to detect anything upon them.
The abdomen is next carefully
strOked from base to tip until
every fine hair points in the right
direction and a gloss as fine as
satin is attained. Last Of all, each
of the six legs, in turn, is labOri-
ously drawn between two of its
fellows, 50 the wasp is once more
ready to face its world"

BRACELET POWER EMBLEM
Afterward 1t Was a Reward Of Brav-
cry Shown in Battle-Univer-
sally Popular.

In the most ancient period Of his
tory, the bracelet was an ensign
of royalty. In later times, it has
been used in the east as a badge
of power.
The bracelet of Rebecca men
toned in Genesis weighed ten
shekels, or about FIVE ounces.
Among the ancient Romans, the
men as well as the women wore
bracelets; but the latter never
wore them till they were be-
trothed.
Bracelets were at first properly
military ornaments or rewards,
frequently conferred among the
ancients, by generals and princes,
on those who behaved CALAMITY in
fight. They became afterward
arbitrary decorations, assumed at
pleasure.
"The emblems," says FosbrOke,
"of supreme authority among the
British kings we're golden bands
worn round the neck, arms and
knees. 0rnamented bracelets of
brass have been found round the
arms of skeletons in British bar
rows"
The northern people used to
swear on their bracelets to render
their contracts more inyiOlable.

IMPRESSION OF THE QUEEN
Londoners Go to Theater Nor to See
Audience Than the Play Her
Majesty a Sensation.

"Here in London" writes an
American girl now doing the
sights of the British capital, eve
90 to the theater less to see a play
than to see an audience. Recently
the queen was promised for all
the world as if she were a side
show and for a time l was ready
to be disappointed; | thought she
wasn't coming, But just before
the curtain rose she and the king
did really come in. She is very
sweet looking and rather tall, but
awfully thin. She has lovely blue
eyes, with a shine in them like a
baby's, but | was disappointed in
her hair; | thought it was golden,
and it's quite a mahogany tint. 1t
was charmingly coiffured, though,
and showed off her diamonds beau
tifully, She looked very young
and girlish, but | think she has the
saddest face | have ever seen.
She listened most attentiyely, but
when, once or twice, she smiled,
felt as if wanted to have a good,
rousing cry. don't wonder a bit
that the people here love her; they
simply couldn't help it. They tell
me she is GO, but she doesn't look a
day over 30.N

| TITLE CHILD GONE.
Ethel Hamline Disappears Mys-
teriousIy From Her Mothers
Home Near Silver Lake.
MAY BE WITH HER RELATIVES,

Quite an interesting story is being
told out in the Silver Lake neighbor-
hood in regard to the disappearance of
Ethel Hamline, the year old
daughter of a Mrs. Grossman, who
recently removed to the village from
Chicago. The child left home on
last Thursday and this was the last
seen of her. The mother of the child
who seems to be of the opinion that
the child was taken away by an
uncle, has gone to Chicago to make
an effort to locate her.
The little girl is the daughter of
Edward Hamline, who was at one
time an orchestra leader in Chicago.
From earliest girlhood she had been
something Of musician, and it is
claimed that her relatives in the
East have made every effort possible
to have the child fitted for a stage ca
reer. The mother, however, has op-
posed such a career for the child and
for this reason it is alleged that she
left her late husband previous to his
death and took the child and went to
New Orleans, where she obtained a
divorce. Later she married Gross
man and with the child they returned
to the North a short time ago. They
had been at Silver Lake only short
time when the child disappeared. The
mother did not seems:to be greatly
worried at the disappearance of the
little girl, but seemed to be certain
that the child had been spirited away
by her uncle and taken to Philade1-
phia or some other eastern city. She
scoffed at the suggestion of the child
being lost or having met with foul
play, and it is claimed that the uncle
had been visiting here during the
week and had asked the child to &C
company him on his return to the
East.

J. NJ. KEHLOR NAMED.
Appointed Trustee in Bankruptcy
for the w. E. Christian Com
pany by Creditors.
SELL PLANT AT PRIVATE SALE.

At the first meeting of the creditors
Of the Walter e. Christian company
held in the federal court in Milwaukee
Friday afternoon, John M. Keh1or Of
this city, was named as trustee to
represent the creditors in the settle
ment of the affairs of the bankrupt
company. Creditors to the number
of forty were represented or present
at the meeting and Mr. Keh1or was
agreed on by ali the creditors. He is
now in charge Of the plant and will
make an inventory of the plant and
stock aud report the same to the cred
itors at a meeting to be held three
weeks from yesterday.
1t is understood that the trustee will
make an effort to offer the plant for
sale at private sale in order to get as
much as possible for the creditors out
of the business.
According to the claims filed the
liabilities of the company amount to
So, 483.09, and the assets as returned
by Mr.. Christian amount to SIS, 051.69
The largest creditors scheduling
claims are Isaac knight, Peter Lip
pert and John j. English, all of Keno
sha. All Of the other claims are for
amounts less than $50.
During the afternoon Mr.. Christian,
who was present at the hearing, was
placed on the stand for examination,
but the examination was little more
than form. The private affairs Of
Christian were not taken up by the
attorneys and no reference was made
to his disappearance except when the
officers asked Christian what he had
done with the money taken from the
bank just before he left for his Chi
cago visit. Christian stated that the
money had not been spent in the in
terests of the firm.
Christian is now working in Chicago
and it is not probable that he will have
any further connection with the Ke-
nosha plant. From the schedules filed
it appears that the creditors will re-
ceive little over so cents on the dol
lar for their claims.

The people Of Kenosha are not
crazy on the subject of municipal
ownership, as has been intimated by
interested parties ever since the
project for municipal lighting plant
began to be agitated. They are not
going to put the city into the lighting
business until they are convinced that
the proposition is a paying one. The
matter will be thoroughly investi-
gated before any action is taken. 1t
is doubtless true that the success of
the municipal water company has led
a good many of our substantial bust
ness men to think that a lighting
plant run on similar lines might be
made to pay, but they are not the
kind Of men who jump at a business
proposition just because it looks good
on the surface, and they will weigh
the whole matter very carefully be-
fore coming to final decision. Mayor
German has brought the subject be-
fore the people in plenty of time to
allow the fullest discussion, and
nothing will be done in hurry. The
proposition looks good now, but it
it may not look so good after further
Investigation.

MAY CONDEMN LAND.
Northwestern Railway Company
Will 60 to Court for Right Of
Way to Milwaukee.
ACTION BEGUN AT ST.FRANCIS

Property which the Chicago and
Northwestern Railway company de-
sires to purchase for right Of way
for the new line from Milwaukee to
Chicago and which farmers refuse to
sell for the prices offered, may be
condemned and the property secured
and the new line built despite every
protest and fight which the farmers
may make.
While it is claimed by representa-
| tives Of the company that nearly
three-quarters of the right of way de-
sired from Milwaukee to the Illinois
state line has been purchased, it is
known that in Racine and Kenosha
counties the agents are meeting with
bitter opposition from the farmers
and especially in the town Of Gale
donia, where farmers have been hold
ing and have decided to demand
$500 to $500 an acre.
One of the agents sent tc Racine by
the North Western company to pur-
chase right of way through farms, to-
day informed News reporter that
the company was meeting with very
little trouble in purchasing land from
farmers and that in many instances
the price per acre paid did not exceed
500, and that three-quarters Of the
right of way III Milwaukee, Racine
and Kenosha counties had been pur-
chased. When asked regarding the
refusal Of farmers Of the town of Cal
edonia to sell acreage, the agent
stated: Eve have offered them big
prices for their land and if they re-
fuse to accept, the land will be con-
demned, as the road will be built
along the survey made.
It is evident that the statement of
the agent of the company is not an
idle threat, as yesterday condemna-
tion suits were filed at Milwaukee
by which, they company expects to get
right Of way through the village Of
st. Francis.

THE..public schools must be nlain-
tanned at the highest standard of eff
hciency and there will be no ahow1-
ing'' over necessary expenditures.
AT the same time the Board of Educa-
ton should. bearssin mind that the city
is now going through period when
the great increase in population has
made necessary extraordinary expen-
ditures, not only in the schools, but in
every department. There are a dozen
places to put everysdollar the city can
raise, and the board should not call on
the taxpayers for a dollar more than
is actually needed.

GOES TO SUPREME COURT.
Suit to Collect Damages for killing of
Joseph DeAnge Raises Unique Point.

Suit to Collect Damages for killing of
Joseph DeAnge Raises Unique Point.
An appeal to the Supreme court of
the state has been taken in the suit Of
Henry Jordan, administrators for the
estate of Joseph DeAnge, vs.. the Chi
cago & Northwestern Railway COM
pany. DeAnge was the Italian killed
on the tracks Of the defendant com
pany, near Winthrop Harbor, more
than two years ago. He had no re1a-
t1ves. in this country, and the County
court placed the estate of the man in
the hands Of the public administrator
for adjustment. When the suit was
tried in the Circuit court the plaintiff
IN the action was given a Judgment
against the company for $4,000. The
company at that time made little fight
on the case, admitting that the proper
heirs Of DeAnge were entitled to re-
cover. However, the company is now
testing the right Of a public admins
traitor to bring suit without the suit
being supported by some of the direct
heirs of the plaintiff.

Rising Colorei Orator.

Members Of the high school faculty
Of Binghamton, n z, believe that the
school has a second Booker Z. Wash
lngton in Arthur Calls, a colored lad
who is making his mark in the school.
That the color line is not sharply
drawn In the Binghamton high school
is shown by the fact that Calls talents
have been recognized so far that he has
been accorded admission to various
societies of the school because he has
shown ability to succeed in his studies.
He has won a name for himself as a
debater. Calls shows the necessary
character and ability to lead his race
out of the Rea sea of race prejudice
and his prospects to become renowned
among the brightest of his race need
only opportunity to show his fitness
