Crime, Takes Trip to Twin Lakes

Edward Conk1in. who is in jail
awaiting trial on serious charge,
has not as yet taken any steps to Sc
cure ballot $1,000 demanded by JUS
tice McCarron, but has announced
that he will remain in Jail until he
goes before the court.
Today he is taking an outing at
Twin Lakes, his old. home. He went
out in the custody Of Deputy Sheriff
John MUTT, as he was very DESTROYS of
closing up his affairs at the lakes and
securing his clothing. Yesterday
afternoon an automobile filed with
men, and women stopped in front Of
the Jail while the occupants went in
for short visit with Conklin. 1t is
understood that he has had offers of
bond, but he prefers to remain in jail
until after he gets his sentence, The
case has stirred up great sensation
at Woodstock.

TB.Ar grant to the Northwestern
railway for the extension of switch
tracks over Grand avenue ought to go
through the council this evening but
it may not. If there we're no tracks
over Grand avenue it would be differ
ent matter, but as conditions are now
it is just like finding $4,000 for the
city to accept the company's offer,
and no one can estimate the saving
that will be made to merchants and
manufacturers by the improvement
in the freight service.

If the proclamation of Secretary
Taft establishing provisional gov
eminent ia Cuba is indicative of the
policy of the administration and
presumably it is, the present interven-
ton in Cuba does. not mean annexa-
ton at the time. It is evident from
the tone of the proclamation that the
Cubans are to be given another
chance. There is little doubt but that
the present troubles in the island have
been fostered and encouraged to a
considerable extent by foreign capita
list and resident Americans, but it is
possible that this disturbing element
has overestimated the sentiment In
favor of annexation in this country
and has overreached itself. American
public opinion is disposed to await
further developments before passing
Judgment on the situation and GER
tainly the sentiment in this country
in favor of annexation is not strong
enough to force action upon the adj
ministration. Rather the opposite.
While there is no disposition to evade
our responsibilities under the Plat
amendment the American people
would much prefer to see the Cubans
governthemselves if they can. There
is feeling that unless there is a
decided Improvement in Cuban affairs
annexation may be necessary at some
future time, but not now. AS far as
the United States is concerned at
present, the fate of the Cuban republic
is still in the hands Of the Cuban
people and unless further complica-
tions arise the Cubans will be given
another chance. The American
people are not land hungry and all
patriotic Americans would rejoice to
see the Cubans rise to their opportuni-
ties and es ablish for themselves a
free, independent and stable govern
ment under their own flag. tits not
yet too1ate.

ROMEO AND JULIET
Vim. owen and T. w. Connell in Shake
peare's Immortal Tragedy

VIM. Owen and T. w. ConneII in Shake
peare's Immortal Tragedy
RomeosandyJuliet is play that will
never grow.old, for love Isl new to-
day asst swas in the times of the
Montaguesiand Capulets. It makes
its appeal to the heart and in way
that every one36can' understand. It
takes no. college geducation to get at
its meaning, andSis as. clear and direct
as a story passed BY the word of
mouth.
Two nobleahouses in Verona have
quarre1ledlon aspretext so slight that
it is called an 1''airy word" just as
many another quarrel starts today.
The house ofnMontague has an only
son, the. sCapulets an only daughter.
The quarrelfhas progressed SO far
that the relatives ana servants take
it up andsvhenever the two factions
meet in the street pitched battle is
the result, Just as family fueds are
common enough in certain. sections of
our own country. Blood has been
spilled onIbothssides, and the quarrel
grows.
A great ball was given one night
by the Capu1ets, to which the rank
and observation-disclosures had been in
vited. The guests were to come
masked. In as.spirit Of bravado one
Of the..:friends cot young Montague
dared him to sgo. He accepted the
challenge.
It was love at first sight between
the daughter sand the Eson Of these
two Farrings factions.
What al opportunity for a plot!
Shakespeare takes advantage of it;
the hate ofgthes parents and the love
Of the children. Through the din and
clash Of warning FACTIONS rises the
cid sweetsong of love. It has sounded
down the ages and will continue to do
so justsas long as manihas speech.
This great play will be given at
Rhode opera house on "Wednesday
evening. Oct. 10th.
Seats will be on sale Friday morn
ing. Mail orders promptly attended
to.

HAD NARROW ESCAPE
Child of Joseph Christensen in Pleas
ant Prairie Under Hunters Fire

Child of Joseph Christensen in Pleas
ant Prairie Under Hunters Fire
Warrants we're issued this morning
for the arrest of three Italians who
were hunting iii the town Of Pleasant
Prairie on Tuesday afternoon and who
invaded the farm of Joseph Christian
sen. The hunters came near adding
murder to their crime of tresspass
During the afternoon it is claimed
that one of the Italians opened FIRE
vita shot gun on horse in a
pasture near the Christensen farm
and the shot raired about a child of
Christensen who was playing IN the
pasture. The men on the farm took
after the invaders and managed to
capture one of them. The Italian
was brought to the house and his
captors we're planning to bring him
to town and turn him over to the Off
Gals when he drew long dirk knife.
This was taken away from him but
after few minutes he managed to
escape from his guards and leaving
his hat and coat behind he started
for Kenosha. He easily dist2nced
his pursuers and is still at liberty.
The police are in possession of a pass
port supposed to belong to the Italian
and they expect to land him with the
aid of this clue.

TIE need of additional accommoda-
tons at the Kenosha hospital is be-
coming more apparent every day, and
it will not be long before it will be alb
solutely necessary to provide more
room some way. The institution is
doing a great work, which must not
be checked for lack of support, and
the pro olem of providing new build
ing for the hospital is one worthy Of
the serious consideration Of every
good citizen Of Kenosha. With all
the wealth there is here and the great
prosperity Of the city as a whole, il
would indeed be pity if a way can
not be found to provide funds for all
the extensions needed.

good advice for politicians and the

wise in giving the voters short rest

begin to liven up in week or two
now, and then there will be fireworks

THE installation of a police patrol
system is one of the expensive i'm
provements that cannot be put off
much longer. Considering the size
of the city and the character of its
population Kenosha has run along
fairly well with the small police force
but the time has come when either a
patrol system will have to be put ia
or the force of officers greatly in
creased if the property owners are to
have the protection to which they are
entitled.

kenosha Chapter Of Daughters Of
!. American Revolution to Revere
Memory Of City's Founders
PRESERVE OLD LAND MARKS
Grave of Abner Barlow, Revolution
airy Soldier, to be Cared for, and
Streets to be Named for
Pioneer Settlers

IG AGuOSlld CHd plE1F Oh Inc DduS II
tiers Of the American Revolution has
decided to take some steps to revere
the memory of the pioneer citizens of
Kenosha and to have some lasting
monuments erected to the men who
fought the pioneer battles for the life
Of old Southport and early Kenosha.
To this end a committee consisting of
Mrs. Beatrice |. Farr, Mrs. w. w.
Strong and Miss Resale Lyman, has
been named to take up the matter
with the authorities of the city and
seek to have the officials cooperate
with the chapter in the work.
This action was taken at the first
meeting Of the chapter for the year.
which was held at the home Of Mrs.
Robert Whitaker on Park avenue on
Tuesday afternoon. The meeting was
one of the most enthusiastic ever held
among the members of the local
chapter. The chapter decided to take
one of the mberships in the Lincoln
Farm Association and to do what the
members could to aid in the move
ment to have the Lincoln homestead
in Kentucky turned into national
park. It was announced that the reg
ular work of the study of the war of
1872 would be continued during the
coming season, and interesting papers
will be read by the members of the
chapter at the regular monthly meet
ing.
The feature of the meeting was
paper by Miss Bond on the question
of, sold Landmarks Of Kenosha.' 1t
was Miss Bond who started the move
ment for the preservation of these
landmarks. She spoke Of the pioneer
days in the county, Of the old build
ings which had historic value, and
in closing urged that some steps be
taken by the chapter to care for these
landmarks, and to have the story Of
the old buildings and the men who
built them handed down to posterity
in kenosha.
In the discussion the members re-
ferred to the grave of Abner Barlow
in the city cemetery, and the chapter
will arrange to care for this grave
and to make. it place of special in
terest to visitors in the cemetery.
Abner Barlow was one of the few
men who served ia the American Rev
olution to be buried in Wisconsin.
He died In Pleasant Prairie in 1889
and only recently the remains were
removed from the little cemetery there
to. the kenosha City cemetery. The
members of the chapter also referred
to the preservation Of the memory of
the pioneers by naming the streets of
the city in their honor and this work
will be taken up by the committee APP
pointed. The city authorities have
never adopted the plan of naming
streets after men prominent in the
city, but IN a few cases these names
have been given by the owners Of
private subdivisions. Within short
time many new streets will be laid out
in the city, and this suggestion Of the
D. A. r. should be- carried out.

Cattle Men in Kenosha County
Feel the Strength Of Govern
ment Inspection Law.
SEND STOCK TO MILWAUKEE
Railway Co. Refuses to Accept Cattle
for Shipment Not Properly Tagged
by Inspectors and Farmers are
in Trouble

Kenosha county farmers are in
quandary as to what steps to take to
get their cattle to market is since the
new Government Inspection law went
into effect on Monday the Northwest
ern Railway company has under the
new law, declined to accept the calves
and other stock for shipment without
their bearing the tags showing that
they have been properly inspected.
All along the route of the road on Mon
day and Tuesday calves were waiting
at the stations for an irisprctor to
come along and give them clean bill
|of health, and his morning these
cattle were shipped northward to Mil
waukee. Some of the cattle men at
Salem and Genoa Junction carried the
matter 10 Madison and demanded that
some step be taken al once to make it
possible for them to dispose of their
cattle, but they got back word that
the state officials had no power and
it would be necessary for them to ap-
ply to the United States government.
Great forces of inspectors have been
put on IN Chicago during the last two
days but as yet no plan has been de-
vlsed to look after the rural districts.
Under the law the farmers may ship
their cattle to any point in Wisconsin
without Government inspection, but
they may not ship them into Illinois
or some other state without first hav-
ing them inspected. It is claimed
that a number of cattle raisers have
stock to Russell, III, ard ship it from
this point into Chicago, but it is
thought that these daring men are
taking all sorts Of chances, for should
this fact be discovered the govern
ment officials would undoubtedly
swoop down on the men and have
them prosecuted. For some years
there has been a law demanding in
spection Of meat shipped from state
to state, but it had become a dead
letter and the shippers had paid no
attention to it.
So far a can be learned there is not
a single inspector IL this count II and
a great number Of head of cattle are
being held up at Trevor and other.
shipping points for lack of clean
bill of health. Under the new law
the cattle will be inspected before
leaving Wisconsin and after they ar
rive IN the state to which they are
shipped and, in fact, the law provides
for SO much inspection that should an
animal pass all Of the inspectors, after
It is killed the carcas would bear no
less than fourteen inspection tags.
The cattle raisers in this county
are getting a little worried but it is
probable that inspection will be pro-
vided within few days and the in
terrupted dealings with the great
Chicago markets will be open again.
In the meantime the farmers will
have to ship their stock to the pack
ing houses in Milwaukee or sell it to
local spectators who will hold it un-
til inspection is provided for rural
districts.
