DEMANDS LARGE SUN
Laura Biggar, Former Wife Of J
w. Mcdonnell, Defendant in
a Suit for 5000, 600
DOCTOR SUES FOR SERVICES


Laura Biggar, the former wife of
EJ. w. Mcconnell, the Kenosha actor,
is again before the lime light for fol-
lowing closely on the heels of the set
tlement Of her famous suit for the
Bennett millions, comes the announce
fendant in suit for $199,98O This
large amount is claimed from the ac-
tress by DR.. c. C. Hendrick, of Pitts
burg, who claims that It is due to him
on account of professional services
rendered to the actress during the
last two years.
DR.. Hendrick is resident Of At
1antic City, N. j., he asserts, where
he practices his profession. Mrs.
Bennett, he says, now resides IN Chi
cago, and to the best Of his belief, has
no place of residence where service
may be had on her in Pennsylvania.
In the directions to the sheriff filed
with the action, that official is direct
ed to attach the goods, chattels,
rights, credits, moneys and effects in
the hands or custody of Peter ]. Nc
Nu1ty and James w. Pratt, the exc
cutors Of the will of Henry M. Ben
nett, and those two men; with Rich
ard Gulick, individually, and summon
them as garnishes.
Dr. Hendrick claims that Mrs. Ben
nett came to him May IL, 1902, very
broken in health and applied to him
at his private sanitarium then at Bay
onne, N. r., for treatment. At her
special request, he says, he closed his
sanitarium and re1inquished a very
renumerative position which he held
as health inspector ofIHudson county,
n. X; in order that he might more ex-
c1usively attend her.
OF the strengthen her promises of
.ecompense, he says, he SO exclusive
lily devoted himself, his time and pro-
fessiona1 skill to her from May II,
1902, until July 10, 1906, that he has
pra ctica11y lost the general practice
he had prior to Mays11, 1902, and has
had no opportunity to.attend to gen
eral practice or to otherlcases in which
his services weresdesired.
Dr.. Hendrick alleges that he at
tended her almost'incessantly in com
| pliance with her request, travelling
with her. He a1so.allegeslt1 1t at her
request he attended to may of her
/ business affairs for her.
he says that she particularly de-
sired his exclusive medical attention
and attendance, andasheIknew that he
was thereby losing sthesopportunity Of
practicing his profession generally,
but she promised, heasays, zreasonable
recompense.

MANY TEACHERS WE'D
Cupid Hard at Work Among the
Teachers Of the kenosha
Schools During Vacation


Cupid, the crafty little god of love,
has been busily at work among the
teachers of the Kenosha schools dur
ing the present sumner vacation and
already no less than a half dozen of
the teachers have been married ard
If rumor is right other marriages
among the teachers will take place
during the next few weeks. The first
of the number to marry was Miss
Anna Adams, former principal of
the Den1ing school, who was married
to Alfred A. Dickey, another former
Kenosha teacher. The second on the
list was Prof. Hooking of the High
school, who was married at Racine
few weeks ago. Then came Principal
Donald Frank and later Miss Ella
Toner married James Cavanagh in
New York. This morning announce
ments were received IN the city of
the marriage of Prof. Charles Blum
Woodstock and Miss Coral Lenoir
Carpenter, who were married at the
home of the bride at Plano, ILL.,, on
Wednesday. The marriage was a
quiet event, at which only the imme-
date relatives of the bride and groom
were present. The announcement of
the marriage will come as a great sur
prise to the people in Kenosha &C
quainted with Mr.. Woodstock, as he
had not given even the slightest hint
that he was planning to marry during
the vacation. Mr.. and Mrs. Wood
stock are now spending their honey
moon In the east and cards announce
that they will be at home to their
friends after September fifteenth at
Kenosha.
Mr.. Woodstock is one of the most
popular teachers in the schools of the
city. For two years he acted as prin-
cipal of the Durkee school, the largest
in the city and when manual training
was made part of the curriculum of
the Kenosha schools he was named
as head of this department.. At the
last meeting Of the board before the
close of the last school year he was
relieved of his duties as principal of
the Durkee school and in the future
he will give all Of his time to the di-
rection OF the manual training work.
The K4nosha school teachers are
now looking with suspicion on each
other and the question in school cir
cles is who'll be the next?'

DANES MAY LOSE.


Funds of the Danish brotherhood Said
to be lin Chicago Bank Which Failed.
Local members of the Dauish Broth
erhood are much worried over the ru-
NOR that the entire funds in the SUI
preme treasury are tied up in the fail
ure of the Milwaukee Avenue State
bank of Chicago, whose president,
Paul Stensland, has absconded, and
is claimed to be a million dollars
short. No verifcation of the rumor
has as yet been received here, but
members of the Kenosha lodge are in
clined to give the report full cred
ence, as it is known that the supreme
treasurer of the order did considera-
bic banking with the defunct concern.

A BANK failure is always bad
enough, but the recent crash in Chi
cago IS particularly narrowing, for
the loss falls upon the class least able
to bear it. It is no greater crime in
law to steal from poor man than
from rich one, but it always seems
lower and more heartless, and no pun
ishment can be too severe for the alb
sconding president and cashier of the
wrecked bank who deliberately robbed
the poor of their hard earned savings.

GET OUT VALUABLE BOOK
Chicago Firm Publishes Work Contain
ing Sketches of Kenosha Persons

ing Sketches of Kenosha Persons
The firm of ]. H. Beers & Co.. of
Chicago, is distributing today copies
of the biographical history of repre-
sentative citizens of Racine and Ke-
nosha counties. It is valuable work
which will serve as means of per-
petuating biography and family
genealogy, much of which could be
preserved in no other way. 1t will no
doubt prove an invaluable contribu-
ton to the historical literature of the
state of Wisconsin. The pictures il
this volume have been very carefully
executed and throughout the pages
contain much that is interesting as
well as historical.
It has been some years since an
edition of this sort has been published
and very few of the volumes gotten
out previously are extant. The first
sketch is of Stephen Bull aud in the
front of the book there is a fine half
tone. Next is a biography of Hon.
Jerome I. Case and following this is
one devoted tc the Hon. Zalmon Gill
bert Simmons. It tells of the extern
sive work Of the Kenosha millionaire
in behalf of the G. A. r. and also an
account of the dedication of the
memorial statute in Wisconsin. The
book not only gives sketches of citi-
zens alive today, but also of those who
have passed away. It is impossible
to adequately describe the book in
these columns, but those having a
copy are we'll pleased and speak
highly of the same.

TIE council has no power to cut
down the estimates of the school
board and the finance committee has
got to decide how the $50, 200 de-
manded by the board is going to be
raised. The proper way would be to
spread the payments over period of
years by means of bond issue, but
Kenosha property owners are SO
prejudiced against bond issues that
they may object even to an issue Of
school bonds. In that case the only
other alternative is to put the amount
in the next tax levy.

PAINTED signs continue to appear
at frequent intervals on the sidewalks
and exposed spaces on buildings and
fences all over the city, showing how
much more potent is the force of bad
example than a good one. For months
the Outdoor AIT Association and it's
members have 1abored early and late,
in season and out of season, to incu1-
cate in the public mind some idea of
the desirability of clean and beauti-
ful city, and while results are begin
ming to show, they are as yet in no
way commensurate with the force and
labor expended. That is the good
example. Now for the bad one. Pre-
vious to the spring election either the
candidates or their fool friends, with
the cool disregard Of private and pub
lie rights that is part of the makeup
of the real politicians, daubed the
names of tke aspirants for Office on all
the fences and walks they could get
at, with the result that ever since
that time every advertiser who con-
ceives the idea that he has message
to inpart to a waiting world, feels
privileged to daub the same anywhere
aud everywhere as long as his paint
holds out. 1t is hardly necessary to
remark that the result adds nothing to
the appearance of the streets, and the
efforts Of public spirited citizens TO
beautify the city are nulliied to a
great extent by these nideous signs.

PLAYED GREAT GOLF
R. P. Cavanagh of Kenosha Club
Only Three Strokes Behind
Chandler Eagan.
OTHER KENosHANS QUALIFY

Former State Golf Champion Dick
Cavanagh, of the Kenosha Country
club, made a great showing at the
OnWentsia links on Wednesday, when
he finished second in the great race
for the place in the first flight of the
annual open tournament of the Lake
Forest Golf club. Cavanagh was
second only to H. Chandler Egan, the
western champion. The other Keno
sha players entered in the tourna-
ment, including w. L. Yu1e, B. M.
Petit and c. c. Allen, all qualified
for one of the cups and all are playing
in the first round of the match play
today.
Cavanagh, however, was the bright
and particular star of the Kenosha
players entered in the big tourna-
ment, and his performance drew a
great deal of attention from western
golfers.
One hundred and twenty-three of
the pick Of western golfers started in
the big tournament and the work of
the Kenosha boy in getting the sec
ond best score shows that he must
have played great golf. Cavanagh
made the thirty-six holes with total
score of 153. aud Chandler Egan was
only three strokes better. Cavanagh's
best score was only one below the
score turned by the champion for the
afternoon round. The Cavanagh and
Epan scores follow:

TO HAVE LABOR DAY

Bartenders of City Forming Organiza-
ton to Secure Annual Holiday
In the near future there will prob
ably be an addition to the number of
holidays observed in Kenosha, as the
bartenders of the city are now form
ing an association which will arrange
for an annual holiday for them.
While nearly all of the bartenders are
union men It is impossible for them
to celebrate Labor Day with other
trade unionists, as it is necessary to
keep open the saloons on that day.
The plan now is to set another day
which will be an annual holiday for
the bartenders. It is understood that
the employers Of the bartenders are
heartily in favor Of the plan.

The coupon books are sold at from
