STRANGE BUT TRUE.

Several parties we're seated a.
round the soda fountain in the
we'll known drugstore of J.H.
Polhill, when a gentleman came
in and called for bottle of Dill
ingham's Plant Juice. After he
had been waited on by the clerk,
one of the parties spoke and said
it was strange how Col. Dilling'
ham could arouse and create such
a demand for his remedies.
J.H.Polhill, our we'll known
druggist, said that was easily ex'
planned. The first thing was that
Col. Dillingham; is a liberal adver-
tiser, and the second that his
remedies are justasrepresented,
and that Col. Dillingham; stuck
strictly to the law of nature in the
manufacture of his Plant Juice
medicine.
J.H. Polhill said: "Col. Dilling-
ham once explained to me how
be manufactures his remedies
and it was to the letter. He said
he watchedevery thing and.it was
done right, and that it did not
vary a hairs breadth. He ex.
planned to me if a compass reg.
i.ters a hairs breadth wrong,
when ship is put out to sea, it
will carry her a thousand miles
out of her way in a few days and
wreck her. So it is, said Col. Dill.
ingham. with many medicines;
when first put on the market
there is some varying and finally
there is loss of confidence"
1T is not so with Col. Dilling.
hams Plant Juice. 1t is kept up
to the standard. That is the rea'
son l can guarantee his remedies
to do all he claims for them"
And J. H. Polhil[ added: AT
this season of the year thousands
of people are already showing the
i'll symptoms that are sure to re-
suit from the unusual climate.
Hearty food, lack of exercise,
overwork and poor ventilation
these spell sickness and poor
heal: h. If the stomach cannot dc
it's work properly, i'll health is
sure to follow. Dillingha ~ S
Plant Juice is the one medicine
that assures natural digestion,
that streng hens the stomach
and soothes and heals all irrita'
ton, congestion and irritation in
the stomach and bowels. It is this
that makes it certain and guar
anteed cure for all stomach trou-
bles.
IF the digestion is impaired
the blood is impoverished and be-
comes filled with poisonous i'm
purities, deranging the whole
system and causing sickness and
suffering.
"Dillingham's Plant Juice, act

organs, cures sleeplessness, ner'
vous troubles, headaches, back
aches and general weakness and
debility. If you are weak and all

to a diseased stomach. But yor
can be cured by using Dilllng'
hams Plant Juice. If it does mo-
help you the price is absolutely
nothing.

Frank Mikatis, a Kenosha Work.
man Ground to Death Under
a Train at Appleton
STARRED TO WORK IN WOODS
Left Kenosha With Three Fellow Work
men on Last Monday, After Giving
up his Work at Thomas B.
Jeffery Factory

Frank Mikatis, forty-two years of
age, a Kenosha Lithuanian workman
who had resided at 754 Jenne street
until last Monday, met an awful
death under the wheels of North
Western train between Greenville
Junction and Appleton, at an early
hour this morning.
The remains of the man were found
by the conductor Of an early morning
train which passed over the road just
before 3 O'Clock, and the remains
were taken bach to Appleton where
they are being held pending the ar
rival of relatives of the dead man from
Kenosha.
The remains were terribly mang1ed,
and it was impossible for the author
tiles to give any account of the mans
appearance. In the pockets Of his
coat, however, were found letters
showing that he had formerly been
employed by the Thomas B. Jeffery
company Of this city, and cards bear
ing the names Of Frank Makaipire
and Julius Sypajwig. The former
name was the one that was borne by
the dead man while he worked at the
Jeffrey plant, and the other is the
name of his uncle.
AS soon as the remains had been
taken to Appleton the district attor-
ney there notified the police officers
here of the killing of the man, and
officers were at once sent out to locate
his relatives. They found that his
amt, Mrs. Petronelli Nemeiksja, was
living at 754 Jenne street. The wo.
man stated that the dead man had
given up his position at the Kenosha
factory on last Monday night, and in
company with two fellow workmen,
Stoney YANKEES and Mike August, he
had left the same night for Northern
Wisconsin intending to get work in
the woods. Nothing had been heard
from the party since they left Keno
sha.
The officials at Appleton claim that
it is impossible to get any details of
the accident, but it is generally be-
lieved that the man was killed by be-
ing thrown under a freight train some
time during the night.
The relatives Of Mikatis will go to
Appleton this afternoon and make ar
rangements to bring the body to Ke-
nosha or to bury it at Appleton.
Mikatis was single man and he had
resided in Kenosha for number of
years. He was one Of the best known
members Of the Lithuanian colony in
Kenosha. He had been employed at
the Jeffery plant for some time.
The inquest over the remains will
be held at Appleton as soon as the
identity of the man is properly proven
by his relatives.

WILL SUBMIT "A BID
Present Home Of the Kenosha
Postoffice to Be 0fferedfor
Federal Building
OTHER SITES ALSO OFFERED

z
Mrs. T. j. Meyers, owner Of the
Meyers block on Market street, will
offer this piece Of property to the
United States government as federal
building and a bid to this effect will
be. sent to Washington within the
next few days.
The block is now the home Of the
postoffice and the site is considered
one of the best IN the city, but gov
eminent officials express doubts as to
whether the government would be
willing to purchase building. The
government has IN most cases made it
the rule to build building suited for
the demands of the city in which it is
placed, and while it is possible that
the big Market street block could be
converted into a government building,
1t is more probable that the hid will be
declined and vacant lot purchased.
Mrs. Meyers has stated that she is
willing to sell the block to the govern
ment at a reasonable price, and it is
thought that the appropriation of
$75, 900 made by the government would
be all that would be needed for the
purchase and alteration Of the build
ing.
Several other sites ere being pro-
posed for the building but it is not
known that any bids have been sent to
Washington. The most talked of site
is that owned by z. G. Simmons and
located at the corner Of Chicago and
Market streets. This lot is about the
size demanded by the government.
/ The Wulf property on Wisconsin
stree has also been suggested, but IT is
understood that this property is held
at a high price and It is possible that
that the government officials would
lie unwilling to pay the price.
The bids are to be opened on Aug.
no, but It will probably be another
month before the agents Of the gov
fernment come to Kenosha to make a
selection Of site.

DAVIDSON Is COMING
Head Exc ;utiye Of the State to
Make Visit to Kenosha Within
the Next Two Weeks
PETITIONS BEING CIRCULATED

Governor James 0. Davidson has
he will come to this city and county
for days visit between now and the
primary election, and while no exact
date for his visit has been set, it is
understood that he will be here within
the next ten days. The governor,
while known to many people IN Keno
sha, has not been in this city since
his first campaign for the Office of
state treasurer, and he fears that
some 1oopholes may have been made
in his fences in this section of the
state. 1t is not known that Governor
Davidson will speak in Kenosha. In
trips made SO far this campaign the
governor has simply met the people of
the different cities, but it is stated
that he will open a speaking CAM
paign this evening and it is possible
that Kenosha will be favored with an
address by the head executive of the
state.
The governor has been forced to
take to the platform by the attitude OF
Senator La Toilette, who announced
Friday that he would enter the Wis
consin campaign as supporter Of
Lenroot, and that he would be willing
to make five speeches day from
August 10 until after the primary
election is held.
1t is understood that former Gov
ernor Hoard, of TT. Atkinson, has
consented to take the stump for Da.
wilson and it is expected that the
fight will wax exceedingly hot. Pc
titions for Governor Davidson are
now being circulated in Kenosha
county and they have been signed by
hundreds of voters. Lenroot's petit
tons have also been circulated here
and they we're signed by many people.
County Clerk Crosby has given no
tice to all candidates that a week from
today will be the last day of grace for
filing petitions for nominations, but
he is anxious to have all petitions filed
before next Tuesday.

VETS TO ORGANIZE
Spanish-American War Veterans
are to Form a Chapter of the
National Organization
TWENTY-FIVE ON CHARTER

While Kenosha sent no regiment or
company to the front to fight in the
Spanish-American war, a chapter of
Spanish-American war veterans is to
be organized in the city and call has
been sent out for a meeting of tbs
veterans to be held at the Office Of
Alvin Blood on next Tuesday eve
ming. At the time the war broke out
Kenosha organized a company and it
was offered to the government in con-
nection with the other Wisconsin
troops, but the offer was never &C
copied and the Kenosha boys never
started for the front.
However, with the breaking out of
the war many Kenosha boys hurried
to other places and offered their
services as volunteers and it is dis
covered that fully twenty-five Keno
sha men saw service in different
capacities during the war with Spain.
At the recent state encampment of
the Spanish America war veterans in
Racine, the Kenosha men were SUR
prised at the number ofveterans hail
ing from this city and it was at once
decided to organize chapter of the
organization here.
Alvin H. Blood, who has always
taken great interest in the work of
the veterans of all wars has taken
this movement in hand and he has
managed to secure the cooperation of
half dozen other young men VINO
took part in the Spanish war.
Among the number who signed the
call for the meeting for the organiza-
ton of the chapter are Charles Pofahl
who was member of the marine
corps, Alvin H. Blood and John Dris-
sci, who were with the regulars IN the
Philippines, Edward Martinson, who
was in the navy and William Rhine
dorf, who was in the engineering
corps. Ali branches of the service
will be welcomed to the meeting
and it is hoped that all will unite to
make the chapter a success.
