Telephone Broke Who Made Deal
for Sale ofKenosha Lines Asks
$3, 600 as a Commission
BROKER DREAMER OF DREAMS
Chicago Broker Planned to Unite
Public Service Corporations in
Kenosha and Build Model
Village for Workmen

| Jose Migenau1t, Of Chicago, a
broker in the telephone business, has
| started an action against the Wiscon-
sin Telephone company in the courts
of Milwaukee, to collect $4,000 which
| he alleges is due to him from the
company for his work in effecting the
consolidation Of the Citizens Tele-
phone and Telegraph company and
the local branch Of the Wisconsin
Telephone company.
The plaintiff alleges that prior to
Sept. II, 1905, there had been keen
and active competition between the
two companies for the control Of the
business in the city of Kenosha; that
on that date the defendant employed
| the plaintiff to effect an arrange
ment between the two companies by
which new corporation should be
organized to take over the business of
both mpanies SO as to eliminate the
competition existing between them,
and agreed to pay MIN $1,000 if he
succeeded, and 81 900 additional if the
terms were agreeable to A. c. Burt,
president of the Wisconsin Telephone
company.
| In pursuance of this, the plaintiff
alleges, he organized the Kenosha
Home Telephone company and Sc
cured control of the business of the
mission has never been paid.
1
The local officials of the Kenosha
Home Telephone company claim that
they have not been summoned in the
suit, and that they have no knowledge
of the claims of the Chicago man. Il
is asserted that Migenault had some
! agreement with c. Il. Johnson, the
former president of the Citizens com
pany, but it is stated that johnson
had paid the commission agreed upon
1t is further stated by the local off
Gals of the Kenosha company tha
the Chicago man had absolutely no
thing to do with the organization Q,
| the Kenosha Home Telephone com
pany.
| Quar1es, Spence and Quar1es, 0.
Milwaukee, are the attorneys for tht
i plaintiff in the action.
! Migenault was dreamer Of dream
and when he first came to Kenosha h,
had great scheme for the union o.
all public service corporations in the
city under one management. He wen
to the officials of the Kenosha GA:
and Electric company, the Kenoshs
lStreet Railway company and the two
telephone companies and sought t.
lsecure pooling OF all interests unde1
one syndicate. These men laughed
the scheme to scorn.
| Later on Migenault sought to inter
est the Clark Construction company
of Chicago in scheme to build {
model village for workingmen a
lO'Neill's corners but this plan also
fell through. The suit against The
/ telephone company is expected tx
come up in the Milwaukee court:
within the next few weeks.

Voliva of Zion Declares That Practice

In language strongly suggestive of
the vituperative vocabulary of the

sermon at Zion City Sunday.

surgeons, with few exec ptions, are
the worst lot Of devils outside of
satan's domain. Some people have
an idea that Zion must change her
plans, but there can be no change.

today which dares to rebuke sin in
every form, and as soon as we begin
to compromise we begin to fall

learn the lessons we ought to learn.
If God could use Peter as he did after
he had denied him and sinned as he
did, beg of you IN Zion to be more
merciful in your criticisms today"
Voliva declared his belief that the
world is growing worse and that hui
manity has little interest in Christi

II wish / could say that the world
is growing better" he said, ''but it is
growing worse every twenty-four
hours. The people as whole are not
interested in God or the bible, and to-
