Earrings.

Girls who are fond Of earrings may
perhaps be interested in hearing
few facts about them. SAD tt is for the
emancipated woman Of the present
day to learn that these fashionable or
naments were originally a mark of
slavery. In bygone days the slave al
ways wore his masters earrings. In
the east they were sign of caste and
were buried with the dead. Some an
cient earrings were very elaborate, and
many statues had their ears bored in
readiness for votive offerings Of ear
rings. In England the earliest earrings
were very cumbrous and made Of
stone or wood. The eighteenth century
saw the glorifcation of the earring.

ARGUE "a DEMURRER

Attorneys for Charles Myers Object to
his Indictment by u. s. Grand Jury
In the United States court in Mill
waukee on Wednesday attorneys for
Charles Myers of this city argued a
demurrer against his Indictment by
the United States grand jury. Myers
was charged with opening letter not
addressed to him, the offense alleged
having been committed more than a
year ago. A letter was sent to Keno
sha to one Charles Myers. 1t con-
tanned a check for a large sum of
money and in due time it was turned
over to Charles Myers, the music pub
Usher. Myers is alleged to have at
tempted to cash the check but before
it had been paid by any of the banks
of the city the real owner turned up.
The attorneys claim that Myers is
not liable to prosecution on account of
the fact that theg1etter was turned
over to him by regular agents of the
post office.

MILDEsT WINTER IN YEARS
Not Since 1878 has the Temperature
Been as High During Winter

The present winter has been the
mildest since 1873, according to mem
cries of old residents. One resident
says the temperature thus far has
not been exce11ed in mi1dness for
twenty-seven years.
So far this winter the mercury in
the thermometer has not sunk below
10 degrees above zero. Twelve years
ago the coolest day Of the winter
was on December II. Last year on
this date at noon the temperature was
10 above, and it is distinctly recalled
that the teachers who attended last
years convention found Milwaukee in
one of the coolest spells of.the entire
winter season. Plowed land is frozen
not more than six inches, and rail-
road man whose run takes him to
northern Michigan declares farmers
are still blowing in some sections of
northern Wisconsin.
For the poor, this mild winter has
been an undisguised blessing, but
''King Coal" no doubt is not as
a1niable as if zero temperature had
come along for the sake of variety, if
not for the sake of the coal barons.

THE OLDEST HUNTER
Justice McGinn a Former South
port Pioneer Claims a Unique
Distinction as a Hunter
KILLED DEER AT SOUTHPORT

Justice JamessM of Neenah,
who was. Zone of the very earliest
settlers ofsthis county and who is still
remembered among the pioneer
citizenssof the city, has setup claim
for the honor of being the oldest
he baseslhis claim on the fact that he
killed his first deer when he was just
IA years of age. The deer was shot
just outside of the village limits of
Southport in 1887.
From the time McGinn struck
Southport he has had record as a
mighty hunter. AS late as 1850 it is
claimed that he killed thirty deer in
the regions about Michigan City, Ind,
and he slaughtered many of the
animals inlewhat is now Kenosha
county. His greatest feat as hunter
was recorded in 1852 when he started
with a party for California and
although it took more than ninety
days to make the trip, it was the trusty
rifle of the southport hunter which
furnished the provisions for the
party. McGinn located i in Grass
Valley California, in the winter of
1852 and Just after his party reached
the valley long period of rain set in
and during the three weeks McGinn
went hunting.
Meat was the selling at IS cents
pound and with the game killed in
the short three weeks McGinn sup
piled the table and sold enough to get
$500 in gold. Up to 1902 Mr.. McGinn
continued his excursions as hunter
and usually spent from 0ive to six
weeks in the Northern woods during
the deer season, getting from twenty
to thirty deer a year. He has now
given up the sport, but goes out after
small game just to keep in practice.
The aged hunter was married in
Kenosha in 1874, and he and his wife
celebrated their sixtieth wedding
anniversary short time ago. Mr..
McGinn is 81 years of age but is still
an active worker.

A NE W MACHINE
Postoffice to Have a New Year 5
Gift Of an Electric Can
ceiling Machine
TO KEEP THE OFFICE CLEANER

| Postmaster Ma1oney seems to be
able to get just about what he wants
for the local postofice, and he was
notified today that the office would
have New Years gift in the way of
an electric cance1ling machine. For
years the clerks in the office have
been grinding on the old hand ma
chine and it is no longer suitable to
the demands of the Kenosha Office.
The new machine is of the same pat
tern that has been installed in the
larger offices of the country. It is run
by electricity and will cancel stamps
on hundreds and thousands of letters
in an hour.
The machine has been shipped from
Washington and in a few days the
postmaster will secure bids for it's in
stallation. It will probably be IN
place and ready for use by the first of
February.
Added to the machine the govern
ment has made an appropriation of
$50 year for janitor service at the
Kenosha office. Since the opening of
the Office in this city the ianitor SER
vice has been paid for by the post
master, and as result the office has
not been kept as clean as it might be.
Under the new ruling the office can
be thoroughly cleaned twice week,
and the postmaster promises reform.
The Christmas rush at the office is
over and the postmaster and his men
are beginning to have a breathing
spell. It is certainly noteworthy fact
that the great business of the year
was handled without confusion, and
Notwithstanding the great mass of
letters and packages that poured in
the clerks and carriers were able to
get them out without missing single
delivery.

Chicago & Northwestern Co. is
Enjoined From Building Tracks
on Contested Property
c. & N. CO. CLAIMS DAMAGES
Judge Slosson Issues an Injunction for
the Chicago & Milwaukee Elec-
trio Road in Fight Over
Lumber Yard Strip

The fight for the possession of the
large strip Of property adjoining the
temporary depot of the Chicago and
Milwaukee Electric railway company
on Elizabeth street is now fight of
injnnctions as late Thursday after
noon Judge Slosson, who had issued
the former injunction at the request
of the attorneys for the CHICAGO and
Milwaukee railway company, issued
an injunction to prevent the sworkmen
of the Chicago & Northwestern rail-
way company from laying switch
tracks on the land in question. The
injunction was filed in the clerk of
the courts Office late in the afternoon
and the sheriff hurried to the scene of
the trouble to put stop to the work.
The foreman in charge of the work
made no effort to contest the injunc-
ton and his men were at once pulled
off the work.
However it is claimed that the in
junction came too late as theS tracks
had been practically completed an
hour before the attorneys had applied
for the writ and the workmen were
simply ballasting the tracks in order
to make the work little better.
Ia the application for the injunction
the Chicago & Milwaukee company
claims that its property has been
damaged to the extent of $500 and the
company will seek to recover this
amount. The amount is the same as
claimed by the officials of the Mont
gomery lumber company in the re
cent application for an injunction
against the electric railway company.
It is now probable that the railway
company will carry the fight even
further and get out an order which
will prevent the operation of cars on
the property by the steam road until
such time as the matter of the
ownership of the property has been
settled IN the courts. In the mean
time the attorneys are preparing for a
hard fight when the case is called in
the justice court next week.
The attorneys for the company
seem to be seeking settlement out OF
court on account of the fact that they
are unwilling to begin an action tc
condemn the property. If the proper.
ty is condemned by the company il
can be used for no purposes save rail.
way purposes and it is possible that
at some future time the railway com
pany would desire to dispose of this
property. The Montgomery company
which has a land contract for the
property insists that they do not want
to sell it at any price.

TAXES COMING SLOW
City Treasurer Receives Only $4,000
First Two Days of Collecting

Tax Gatherer Martin Steinmetz is
now busy at work making the annual
collection, but the receipts are COM
ing in decidedly slow. AS the tax
payers have until the last Monday in
February to pay the taxes it is not ex-
pected that there will be any grand
rush until month after the new year
opens. The receipts for Tuesday were
about $1,000, but they fell off to 81 900
on Wednesday, and the amount col
lected today was only few hundred
dollars. None of the big taxpayers
has as yet appeared to settle with
the treasurer.
Its not thought that the treasurer
will have any serious trouble in max
ing his collections this year and
money has been SO plentiful in the
city that only small amount will be
returned as unpaid.

ANTIQUE sEvREs.

False Sevres In the bric-a-brac shops
is offered as genuine by reputable
dealers" in London and Paris as well
as in New York 1t is old, it is true,
but only as old as the restoration IL
France, although the marks would tndi-
cate much earlier and better period.
The counterfelts may usually be de-
tected by the surface Of the gliding.
In the real it was FURNISHED in lines
by means of metal nails with rounded
points, which were set IN piece Of
wood
The limitations Of later date than the
real have been FURNISHED in a similar
manner but with an agate It re-
quired considerably more force to OBJ
tain a bright surface by the ancient
method than by the use of the agate
point; hence the FURNISHED lines in the
genuine ware are perceptibly sunken,
while in the counterfeit ware they are
flush with the general surface of the
gliding. There are other means Of
''spotting' the limitations, such as the
inexact copying Of the marks which
have served since 1853 to denote the
date of fabrication, and the use of
chrome green, which was not discov-
cred until 1902. but the test Of the
FURNISHED parts Of the gliding is the
easiest for the ordinary buyer.-New
