NO ASSISTANCE FOR BISHOP
Bishop Nicho1son's Health Is Said tc
Show Decided improvement

There is considerable speculation
among members of the Episcopal
church as to whether the diocesan
council, which meets at All Saints
cathedral, in Milwaukee, on Septem-
Der IS, will be asked to elect coadiu-
tor bishop. Those best qualified to
judge believe that the matter will not
come up at all before the regular ses-
sion. Before action can be taken a
request for coadjutor must be made
by Bishop Nicholson.
I'm making the request" said a
we'll known layman yesterday, ''the
bishop will specify just what part of
his duties he wishes to delegate to his
coadJutor. The uncertain condition
of Bishop Nicho1son's health makes
it improbable that he will be ready to
do this before the council meets. For
the last week his health has been i'm
proving, and should the Improvement
continue no coadjutor will be asked
for. It is quite possible that, if neces-
sary, the request may be made later
in the fall.
"The coadjutor bishop is elected by
the diocesan council, the bishop hav-
ing only one vote. The choice of the
council is then submitted to the stand
ing committee of every Episcopal
diocese in the country, and finally to
the bishops. This part of the cleo
ton is generally considered formal
ity, as the choice of the council is
generally Endorsed by the others.
Bishop Nicholson has not been
able to attend to any business mat
tiers since he was taken i'll at Nashotah
on May 80. It is not known what he
intends to do, nor whom he favors for
the position of coadjutor. His wishes
in the matter are influential in the Sc
lection

Report Of Major Warren Makes
No Provision for Appropria.
ton for This Harbor.
MUST WAIT FOR THE REPORT

/ Major j. G. Warren, who has been
in charge of the engineering work of
/ the government in the Milwaukee
district for many years, gave up his
j Office on Saturday evening and in
/ concluding his services in the depart
+ ment he sent his report to the secre-
tary of war. The report contains no
mention of the Kenosha harbor so far
as an appropriation is concerned. In
regard to the Kenosha harbor Major
| Warren states that the piers and
breakwater are in good condition but
| that dredging is badly needed. He
states that in this connection the
commission appointed by the govern
ment has recently visited this port
and has made a thorough inspection
Of the conditions.
| In conclusion he recommends that
no work be done in the Kenosha har-
Dor until the report of this commits
sion is received and approved by
| the secretary. In conclusion he
stated that the funds now on hand
we're adequate for the maintenance
of the harbor at the present time.
Racine and other cities along the
| lake Jared better in the appropriations.
as Major Warren recommended the
appropriation of $4,000 for work at
/ Racine, and similar amounts for other
ports along the North Shore.
| This report will be taken up by the
secretary of war at once. and it is
+! probable that the report of the COM
mission which recently visited Keno
! sha will be considered in connection
! with the report Of the head of the en-
gineers. This report is now on it's
way to Washington, and there is little
doubt but that the report will result
in some appropriation being made for
! Kenosha in the next river and harbor
bill.
Reports of the engineer at pre-
vious time show that dredging is
badly needed in the Kenosha harbor,,
and it is probable that this will be
ordered some time in the near future.
There is plenty Of money in the fund
for the maintenance of the Kenosha
harbor to provide for this dredging.

GETS SILVER MEDAL
Harry Raymond of This City Re-
ceives a Mark of Honor for
Services in Boer War
NeLAND H0N0RS KENoSHAN

Harry Raymond, of this city,
well known employe of the Meiselbach
Typewriter company, has received
from the English government medal
showing the appreciation of the gov
eminent of the services which he
rendered with the English army DUR
ing the war in South Africa. The
medals is silver and little larger than
a silver dollar. On the front of the
medal is a bust of the late Queen
Victoria, while on the reverse side is
inscribed "For Va1or IN the South
African VARS The medals, which
are known as "The Victorian Med
ais" have been greatly priced by the
soldiers, both of the empire and other
countries.
AT the close of the war with the
Transvaa1 Republic the late Queen
Victoria directed that these medals be
struck off and that one of them be
given to every man who had served
with honor for ninety days or more.
Among those who received the med
ais were many Americans who had
entered the English army. Mr.. Ray
mond is known to be the only man in
Kenosha who has received this token
of thanks from the English govern
meut.
The Kenosha man went to the
Transvaa1 just after the opening of
the war and saw nearly year of SER
vice under the English flag. After
this service was over he returned to
America and soon after he came to
Kenosha. On account of the vast
amount of 'sred tape" connected with
the issue of these medals by the Eng
1ish government they have not been
sent out until the present time.
Since coming to Kenosha Mr.. Ray
mond has gained quite little note as
an inventor. His continuance to uti-
lie the power of the waves has at
tracted the attention of the mechani-
cal world and in a short time he is
planning to display new invention.
This is continuance for operating
railway switches, and it is claimed
that it will be an invention of great
value to the world of railroads.

August GreWenoW Well Known
Kenosha Laborer Killed by a
Northwestern Train.
HAD CRAWLED UNDER GATES.
Body is Thrown Against a Post and
Many Bones are Broken--Coroner's
Jury Holds Inquest and Finds a
Verdict of Accidental Death.

killed by train at the Middle street
crossing of the North-W Western rail
way just after O'Clock Sunday
morning. The body of the man was
thrown with great violence against a
post at the side of the track and many
bones were broken. Death is thought
to have come instantly after he was
struck.
The accident was a peculiar one.
The train which struck Grewenow
was a special freight consisting of an
engine and tender and a caboose.
The train was not scheduled to stop
at Kenosha and it was running at a
good rate of speed. The warnings
had been given and the gates had
been lowered 10 prevent any ac-
cidents. Grewenow was coming from
the West and as he approached the
track he stopped down and crawled
under the gates. Bystanders who
solw the old man walk on toward the
sracks shouted to him of his danger
but he seemed to pay no attention to
them and walked on the track. The
old man saw the train and turned and
looked at It and then stepped back as
if to avoid his danger. The train was
within few feet of him when he dc.
liberately stepped out on the track.
The engine struck him and threw him
clear across the East. track, his head
striking on post.
In short time great crowd hati
gathered at the scene of the accidenj
and the freight train stopped and
backed up to the crossing. Dir. II. II
Robinson the county coroner was
summoned and jury was called to
view the remains and investigate
into the death of the man. Later I'll !,
remains were removed to the Hansen
morgue. The trainmen were present
at the inquest and after a compile /.
examination of the details of the ac-
dent the coroner's jury returned a
verdict of accidental death.
Grewenow was German by birth
but he had resided in Kenosha for
many years. He was SIS years of age.
He is survived by widow and large
family of children.
