MAY AID KEMPER
Late Bishop Nicholson of MiIWau.
kee Leaves Estate in Trust
for Son and Institutions
ONE FIFTH FOR KENosHA

Kemper Hail in this city may re-
ceive portion of the estate of the
late Isaac Lea Nicholson, former Bis
hop of the Milwaukee diocese, who
recently died in Milwaukee as his
will which was filed for probate IN
Milwaukee Thursday, makes provi-
sion by which one fifth of his estate
valued at $40, 900, may be given to the
Keuosha school. Isaac Nicholson,
the son of the bishop is made the
principal beneficiary of the estate,
but should he die without issue, the
estate will be divided between the in
stitutions in which the bishop took an
interest during his life time. The
clause Of the will making provision
for the dividing of the estate among
the various institutions Of the diocese
is as follows:
At the death of Isaac Lea Nicho1-
son, Jr., the sum of $4,000 is to be
paid to the trustees of All Saints
cathedral, the income from which is
to be used for the maintenance of the
cathedral services. Another $4,000 is
to be paidSalso to the cathedral trus-
tees, the income to be used for i'm
provements on the cathedral property.
A further sum of So 900 is set aside,
the income from which is to be used
for the improvements and repairs on
the episcopal residence. In this con-
.nection Bishop Nicholson stated that
he desired this work not to be
charge upon the parish and that the
So, 900 is set aside as the beginning of
a special endowment fund for this
purpose. If the entire income is not
needed for the purpose specified, the
bishop and chapter may apply the
residue as they may see fit.
Upon the death Of Isaac Lea Niclo1-
son, Jr., sufficient SUM shall be held
in trust for his widow to insure her an
annual income of $1,000 and the re
mainder is to be held in trust for the
children until the youngest reaches
the age of Is years, when it is to be
divided among them. In the event of
the death of the present Mrs. Nichol-
son and the remarriage of her hus-
band the annuity to the widow is to
be only $500.
Should Isaac Lea Nicholson die
leaving no children, the entire estate,
aside from the trust fund for his
widow's annuity is to be divided into
five equal parts, one Of which is to go
to the diocese for the support of the
episcopate. another to Nashotah
nouse, the third to Kemper hall,
Kenosha, the fourth to the cathedral,
and the fifth to Racine college.

IT is peculiar fact that nobody
expects to do business with the city
as they would do it with individuals,
and that the city has difficulty col
aecting its bills from people who
wonld never thinkof letting any other
accounts stand against them. For in
stance, consumers expect the City
Water company to wait for it's money
until they get ready to pay, and are
highly indignant if the commissioners
take the usual measures to enforce
payment at the proper time, just as
any private company would do. For
all that, the Water Commissioners are
Just exactly right in handling the
business of the city just as they would
own.

WE'LL KNOWN WOMAN DEAD
Mrs. j. c. White Died at Her Park
Street Home This Morning


Mrs. Helen White, wife of Jerome
G. White and one of the best known
women of the city, died at her home

suit OF a complication of diseases.

and had been confined to her room

York state, but she came to Kenosha

age.
Since the organization of the Won
ans Relief Corps in Kenosha, Mrs.

thusiastic workers in the corps. She

the Kenosha organization at several
state encampments.

LFnose Sensitive Japs.

A couple OF years ago the little
brown men from Nippon were carrying
off all the honors Of the world by their
marvellous deeds in lanchuria. No
limit could be set to their achieve
ments and progress. Naturally the
spirits Of these ambitious people feel
hurT over anything in the nature Of a
snub administered just as they have
carved out a place in the family Of ma
ti6ns. The treatment of japanese chill
dren in the schools of San Francisco
looks to them like a setback. Stand
ing alone it might be passed over as a
regrettable incident but there are
things back of that to stir the blood
Of any one in a state Of mind to hunt
for grievances.
It is not strange that the jingo ele
ment of Japan makes out a case
against the United States The Japa-
nese have heard that the citizens Of
this country do not welcome them as
laborers- in Hawaii and generally on
the Pacific slope They look upon us
as interlopers in the Philippines and
cannot forget that the peace settlement
with Russia which dashed their lofty
expectations was concluded in this
country But this is only one side Of
the question Americans are proven
bia}ly tolerant of foreigners who bid fair
to become useful citizens here. If dis
elimination is made now and then it
is no more than peoples right. No
one can say the choice is not based
upon experience. Every race on the
Globe which applied has been given a
fair trial. and whether we welcome or
whether we repel certain new faces it
is our own affair, and we have the
right to. be sensitive and even indig-
nant over the way our attitude is &C
ceptea by the races involved.

West Side Social Function Disturbed
by Ladies' Enemy
Mrs. John F. Kitzrow, entertained
at package shower last evening at
her home at 421 Pleasant street, in
honor of Miss Lulu Becker. The eve
ming was spent in games and music.
The parlor and dining room were
prettily decorated with white baby
chrysanthemums and red carnations.
The only mishap to mar the evenings
pleasure was the appearance of a
mouse while the ladies were seated in
the parlor. One of the ladies as
cended a piano stool, and several
climbed on chairs aud drew their
skirts tightly around their ankles,
while Miss Becker started to c1im6 on
the piano, but her mother quickly
came to her rescue and carried her
out of the room, thinking perhaps,
she would faint. After the ladies
were assured that the mouse would
not make its appearance again the
gayety was resumed until late hour.
All present report very pleasant
time.

Canvassing Board Completes its
Work Of Counting the Votes
Cast at the Election
PFENNlG LEADS BY 81 VOTES
Official Figures Make Little Differ
ence in the Vote Cast for Other
Candidates on the Ticket. =
The Summary

The board of canvassers of Keno
sha county this morning completed
the work of tabulating and adding
the. vote cast at the election on Tues
day and while the official count in no
way changes the resulto of the election
it furnishes some interesting figures.
The vote cast by the Social Demo-
cratic party is the first Of the big snr-
prises in the election as it was be
lieved that the Socialists would poll
at least 400 votes in the county and
the lowest estimate of their strength
was $50. The returns show Kaufman,
the kenosha man who ran for lieuten-
ant governor and who had the largest
vote polled by any member Of the
party, got but 285 votes while some
Of the candidates are considerably
below this figure.
The vote Of the Prohibitionists ia
the county was also something of a
surprise as it was not expected that
the party would pole vote Of more
than 90 or 70 in the county but the
official returns show that the candi-
date forsgovernor received 1877 votes
and Alfred T. Decker, the candidate
for member Of the legislature receive
total of 191 votes.
Most of the Republicans voted the
straight party ticket. The ofhcia1count
shows that Pfennig, the Republican
candidate for sheriff has plurality
over Schilz Of 81 votes. He failed to
get a majority. w. G. Crosby the
candidate for county clerk leads the
Republican candidates with plural
ity Of nearly 600, while DR.. Crank E.
Andre is second. After Pfennig, p.
c. Torrey had the narrowest escape
on the the ticket, he leading Emmett
Shields by 222.
The official figures for all candi-
dates on the ticket is as follows, the
votes being sgiven in the following
order: Democratic, Prohibition, Re
publican, Social Democrat and In
dividua1 Nomin atoms.

Ryan and Chatfeld Measures to Protect

At a meeting of the First Baptist
congregation last Thursday evening, the
Ryan and Chattield ordinances for the
benefit OF saloonkeepers who have re-
sorts within 400 feet Of public schools
were discussed at length. A resolution
protesting against the passage Of either
ordinance was adopted and committee
was delegated to take the resolution to
Alderman A. E. Merrill for presentation
to the city council.
Following is a copy Of the resolu-
tion:
HWe, the members Of the First Bap-
tist church, 1,100 strong, wish to ex-
press to the city council at this time
our absolute opposition to any legisla-
tion favorable to the saloon, believing
that already it has a larger place in city
| life than its character deserves; and we
especially protest against the PROPOSE
tion to shorten in any way the dis
| tance between saloons and school build.

trusts than the education Of our child.

easy temptation would be both moral
and municipal suicide; and we earnestly

lists, unless it be to extend the dis
| tance.' " III 4. a.5. 1a.g ,.s
