IN RURAL SERVICE
Government Officials Looking Into
ths Use Of Automobiles by
Rural Carriers
COST OF OPERATION Is LOW

It is the expectation of the postal
officials that the automobile will soon
be introduced in the rural free deliv-
cry service in those sections of middle
western states where the roads are
reasonably good the year round. Tests
just made with motor cars especially
designed for the purpose demonstrate
their fitness for such work.
The experiments we're made on
routes running out of Washington
over driveways that presented many
of the adverse conditions of rocky
and corduroy road beds, steep grades
and mudholes to be found in more re-
mote communities. The tests met all
the requirements of the department.
The particular motor cars used were
buck of four horsepower, with
a wheel gauge of forty-two inches,
propelled by single cylinder, air
cooled gasoline engine, the cars
weig hing about go pounds.
This motor blackboard got over the
bad roads without difficulty or delay.

by the agent of the department who
made the trips we're the absolute con-
troll of the machine by the operator,
the ease with which it climbed and de-
scended steep, rough and dangerous
hills, and waded through mu6holes,
and the thorough protection afforded
mail during heavy rainstorm.
The officials state that if rural car
riers can afford to buy motor cars that
the time taken in delivering and col.
1ecting mail on rural routes will be
materially 1essened. In the expert
ments just completed here three routes
which by ordinary horse conveyance
took a little more than seventeen
hours to serve we're satisfactorily
covered by the motor cars in less than
nine hours. The average cost of fnel
consumed in operating these test ma.
chimes was computed to be less than
Ito cents per mile.

LENROOT IS COMING
Candidate for Nomination for Gov
ernor to Make a Tour of
kenosha County
VISIT TO RURAL DISTRICTS

Kenosha county is evidently to see
some of the real fireworks of the
primary campaign as coupled with
the announcement that Governor
Davidson will spend few days in the
county comes the statement that
Irvine L. Lenroot, Of Superior, whom
Senator La Toilette is grooming for
the nomination, will come to Kenosha
county to make some speeches.
William Perrigo, of Bristol, mem
Der of the Republican county COM
mittee, received a letter from Lenroot
Friday stating that he would be in
Kenosha county within few days. It
is evident that Lenroot plans to make
speaking trip through the county as
he notified Perrigo that he would
visit the town of Bristol.
Lenroot's hackers have been most
active in his behalf in this county
and several petitions for the Lenroot
men were circulated both in Kenosha
and in the towns of the county. It is
evident that both candipates for the
nomination consider this county a
good fighting ground and worthy of
their personal attention. The mem
bers of the committee have not as yet
been advised as to whether or not
Senator La Toilette will make any
speeches in this county, but should he
decide to invade Kenosha county it is
probable that the friends of Davidson
will seek to have some speaker follow
about and counterba1ance any weight
that the speeches of the senator may
carry.
The farmers in the county are so
busy at the present time that they are
giving little attention to the primary
election and even the fight for the
nomination of sheriff seems to have
aroused only slight interest. Most
of the people in the rural districts are
paying little or no attention to the
state fight.

Armitage Hall Being Rebuilt to
Give More Room for Class
Work and Music Rooms
BRIGHT OUTLOOK FOR YEAR
New Organ is Being Placed in Chapel
at Kemper Hall for the Use of
the Students Many Other
Changes Planned

When Kemper Hall openssfor the
new year late in September the young
women returning to the hall for the
new years work will find many i'm
provements. A large force of work
men is now at work at the hall and
the changes being made in the build
ings will add greatly to the equip
ment Of the popular lake shore school.
Armitage Hall, one of the older build
ings on the grounds, is being rebuilt.
Years ago the hall was the main
gathering place of the students and
all public functions were held there,
but since the Simmons gymnasium
was built there has been little use for
the old hall and it has been decided to
convert it into class rooms and a
home for the mnsic school Of the hall.
The building has been leveled to the
foundation and the one-story hall is
being replaced by a splendid two
story brick building. The first floor
of the new building will be divided
into music rooms, to be used by the
music school, and the second floor
will be used for class rooms. Added
to this, the chapel on the grounds,
which was rebuilt last year, is being
improved by the addition of pipe
organ. The contract for the insta1la-
ton Of the organ has been let to the
w. w. Kimball Company, of Chicago.
It is expected that Armitage Hall will
be rebuilt before the opening Of the
new school year, and the dedication
of the hall will probably take place
early in October.
No special gifts have been received
for the completion of these changes,
but it is expected that liberal gifts
will be received during the coming
school year. Other improvements
have been planned by the Sisters Of
st. Mary, but it is not thought that
any effort to carry out the other plans
will be made this year.
The new school year at the hall will
begin on September Is, and already a
large number of new students have
been entered for the year. It is ex-
pected that the number of students
this year will be larger than ever be.
fore and many rooms have already
been reserved. Nearly all of the stu.
dents of last year will return.
Only a few changes will be made in
the faculty of the school, and the Sis.
tiers as yet have not made public an.
nouncement of these changes.

INJUNCTION STOPS BUILDING
Work on the Meyers Building on Park
Street Stopped by Order of Court

Work on the Meyers Building on Park
Street Stopped by Order of Court
Ali work on the building being
erected by John Meyer on Park street
was stopped on Friday on account of
an injunction issued by Court Com
missioner Henry Hastings.
The injunction was issued on the
petition Of Henry Bullamore, who
owns the lot adjoining the building
and who asserts that the building
wall rests partially on the land he
purchased. 1t is claimed that the
buildings from the corner of Church
street running west are. not on the
proper line and Bullamore claims that
some one has foot of ground belong
ing to him. The matter will prob
ably have to be threshed out in court
before the building goes on.

AFTER MANY MONTHS.
Sam Beard, an Italian, Held on
Charge Of BurgIarizing the
Pratt Shoe Store
OFFICER MAKES GOOD CATCH


Sam Beard, an Italian p years of
age, was taken into custody Friday
night by Officer Sinnett of the police
force and Chief O'EIare and his men
believe that they have solved the
mystery of the burglary at the Pratt
shoe store on Grand avenue. The
burglary occurred more than ten
months ago and Since that time the
officials have been seeking for Beard.
Yesterday Beard went to the home of
Frank Wilson, another Italian, and
becoming enraged over some trivial
matter he went into the garden and
pulled out nearly every plant. He
was arranging to get away to Chicago
When he was taken into custody by
Officer Sinnett.
Beard, according to the claims Of
the officers, is one Of the most daring
Italian robbers that ever struck Keno
sha. They had him ia the sweat-box
for more than an hour this morning
and finally forced him to admit that
he took one pair of shoes from the
Pratt store. He declared that he
went along the street and found the
window broken and that he reached
in and took one pair Of shoes. The
following day he is alleged to have
gone to Chicago, and the officers are
trying to show that the shoes taken
were sold in Chicago.
Beard, according to the stories told
by the other Italians brought into
court with him, is professional
thief. He is alleged to have told them
that it was easier 70 I've by stealing
than by work. He cane to this
country five years ago and claims to
have spent most of his time in Keno
sha. It is claimed that he is a man of
nngovernable temper and his fellow
Italians live in constant fear of him.
Beard repeatedly denied that he
took more than one pair Of shoes from
the store, but he will have hearing
this afternoon ard the officers hope to
find evidence enough 10 bind him
over to the Circuit court. He has been
able to evade the officers for more
than ten months and il is thought that
his friends will seek to aid him in Sc
curing his release.
