AT HOWARD.

What in De Smet vicinity proved
be a nice gentle fall of rain proved a
regular cyclone at Howard, Miner
county, Sunday afternoon.
1t started at Barney O'Niel's place
just outside the corporation, twisted
his barn into kindling wood, broke
his windmill to flinders. Proceeding
on its way, it moved James O'Maro's
barn several feet off the foundation
but did not blow it to pieces. From
the O'Neil neighborhood the cyclone
come into town, destroying Auditor
Maley's barn and blowing it all to
pieces. Then it struck B. f. Browns
barn, smashing it into pieces and scat
tering it over several lots From there
it seemed to make a Jump of more
than a block to the elevator belonging
to w. G. Boorman, twisting the roof
from the cupola and part of the roof
from the main building. 1t also blew
away two large empty corn cribs be-
longing to Mr.. Boorman, making kind
ling wood of them. 1t also struck the
Cargill elevator, injuring it about the
same as it did the Boorman elevator.
The storm also destroyed the barn
belonging to Capt j. P. Ryan, reduc-
ing it to kindling wood. Fortunately
no one was hurt. Even COWS and
horses tied in some of the barns that
blew to pieces were not injured.
There was no rainfall during the
wind storm but a few minutes after
the cyclone had passed there was a
heavy downpour of rain. which was
much needed by the crops. After pass
ing the elevators injured the twister
rose and did no more damage as far
as heard from.
During the storm it was as dark as
night, caused by the great cloud OF
dust that accompanied it. There were
several twisters seen moving in differ
ent directions high above the ground,

ACCIDENTLY SHOT

sydney M. Jones Jr., Victim of an Ac-
cident While Playing With Rifle
Sydney M. Jones Jr., oldest son of
Sydney M. Jones the we'll known con-
tractor was accidently shot with a
target rifle near his home on the
Selma road on Sunday. The boy was
playing with number of. boys when
the rifle was discharged and the
bullet entered his left leg near The
knee. He was taken to his home and
physician called to. attend him.
This mofning it is stated that the
wound is not regarded as a serious
one. Young Jones blan1es none of
his companions for the accident aud
insists that it was unavoidable.
This is another example of the fact
that fire arms are dangerous things
to be playing with, and the boy who
has rifle should use it with a great
deal of caution.

FOR KENOSHA
Local Harbor is Not to be I'm.
proved by the Government
This Year
MICHIGAN TO FARE WELL

No appropriation is to be made by
the government for Kenosha harbor,
and ships attempting to enter port
during gale will be in great danger,
as they are liable to be thrown against
the south pier by the strong current
which sweeps around the breakwater.
Marine men called the attention Of
government officials to the dangerous
condition of the harbor during storms
and proved that the breakwater was
absolutely worthless, yet nothing was
done by the board of engineers.
Gen. Alexander Mackenzie, chief of
engineers, reports to the war depart
ment that $4,000 can be proftably
expended for Milwaukee's harbor, in
Fcluding the harbor of refuge, during
the next fiscal year.
Harbors along the east coast Of
Lake Michigan are to receive large
appropriations, but along the west
shore, Milwaukee excepted, little
money will be expended in improving
harbors. The appropriations to Michi-
gan ports are: Manistique, 500, 900;
Holland, SOS, 400; Grand River, S11O,-
900; Muskegon, Sos, 400. Muskegon
and Grand River harbors and rivers
are also mentioned for $4,000 each
additional. AT Duluth and Superior
$40, 000 is to be expended on the har-
Dor.
This is the first time in many years
that no recommendation has been
made for this harbor, and it is sup
posed that the head of the war de-
partment considers that there is suf-
ficient money on hand in the Kenosha
fund for the maintenance Of the
harhOr

The fact that the ice trust is maxi
ing contracts with its large consumers
for next year at considerable re-
duction from this summers prices is
no indication that the trust has ex-
perienced change Of heart. It looks
more like shrewd move to head off
effective competition and it is an in
dication that there is a good deal
more in the talk of an independent
company in the field in Kenosha next
summer than the general public has
any idea Of. The reduction in price
brought about by the mere hint Of
competition shows what benefit an
independent company would be to
the ice consumers of the city and
if an independent company is really
going to start it is pity that so
much profitable business is getting
away from it.

THERE can be no doubt but that
the average voters unfamiliarity with

the polls closed and the returns from

twenty hours for the figures from

FOOTBALL AND PRAYER

Rev. 1T. s. RobIee, Former kenosha
Minister Sends Unique Telegram
GOD bless you, my boy; play hard;
l will pray"
This was the message which the
Rev. Fl. S. Rob1ee former pastor of
the Congregations Church of this city
telegraphed Saturday to his son Law
renee as he was about to enter one of
the greatest high school football
games ever played in Michigan.
Young Roblee is member of the
strong Benton Harbor high school
eleven, which has for four years been
acknowledged one of the fastest
elevens IN the state. Saturday It
played the. Saginaw high eleven at
Saginaw. The contest was one of
the interscholastic series, and decided
which eleven should represent south
ern and northern Michigan in a game
with Muskegon, champions of central
Michigan, Saturday for the champion
ship of the state.
Rob1ee's father is an ardent lover of
sports, especially of football, He has
been at every game played on the
home grounds, aud, but for the fact
that he would have been compelled to
be out of his pulpit on Sunday would
have attended the great game at
Saginaw. A short time before the
game was called he sent the above
message to his son and then went to
his home, and kneeling, prayed for
the success of the eleven young men
who were about to enter the contest.
The boy received the message just
as he threw off his blanket and was
about to enter the field. He made no
comment, but his teammates and
spectators who witnessed the game
claim that he played like a fend, and,
star player that he is, outdid any pre-
vious form.
Time after time he tore holes IN
the defense of the Saginaw eleven,
large enough to let the whole quartet
of Benton Harbor backs through for
big gains. His deadly tackling laid
out the favorite half back of the
Saginaw eleven.
The team believes in the efficacy of
prayer for it defeated Saginaw 80 70 S.

SEE HOPE OF RELIEF
Action Brought by Milwaukee
People to Test Powers of
Railway Commission
arg
REGULATION OF STREET RVS.

| People in Kenosha who are inter
ested IN thespassage of railway fran
chise ordinances are watching the
| State Railway Commission pretty
closely these days on account of the
! fact that a question which will be of
considerable interest to Kenosha IN
future times is now before the COM
mission.
| This question is the regulation of
fares to be charged by street railway
companies, and should the commission
decide that it has the right to regu-
late the fares charged by companies
| working under franchises granted by
city councils, one of the biggest
troubles in connection with the ex-
tension of the Kenosha lines will have
been solved.
AT the present time the committee
and the promoters of the railways in
Kenosha are in a contest over the re
duction of fares. The company
managers hold that it is impossible
for them to grant lower fares declar-
ing that the expenses of running the
railway are such that a cheaper fare
than FIVE cents would not be war
ranted.
The Milwaukee company operating
lines between the city of Milwaukee
and Wauwatosa has made similar
representations to the Milwaukee city
council, and that body has appealed
the matter to the State Railway Com
mission. The company has not as
yet filed an answer to the complaint,
but as soon as it is filed the Railway
Commission will take up the matter
and make some decision to reduce the
fare charged or leave it as at present.
In any case the decision of the com
mission will be taken to the supreme
court for review and if the court up
holds the commission the question of
regulating street railway fares In
Wisconsin cities will have been
solved.
If the commission is given the right
to make such revision in traffic rates
for passenger roads in cities, the
cities need not fear the granting of a
franchise which gives the company
the right to charge a five cent fare as
this matter may be taken before the
commission at any time the people
of the city believe that the receipts of
the company will warrant reduction
of the fare.
At present members of the special
railway committee are demanding
that the company agree to grant
universal three cent fare to the people
of the city after twenty years. This
the company is refusing to do, but
under the decision of the commission
the matter could be allowed to rest
until the twenty years is passed and
then the city could go to the commits
sion and demand the reduction IN
fares. OF course it would be better
to have this fact stated in the original
ordinance, but the commission will
offer harbor of refuge to the city if
the company should absolutely re
fuse to accept a franchise with such a
condition tackled on to 1t.

If the property owners would give
the street railway franchises, as they
are published, the same careful con-
sideration that they would give one
of their own private contracts, they
will be in position to give their rep
resentatives in the council some good
advice when the franchises come up
for vote in that body. 1t is neither
good business nor good sense to leave
everything to the aldermen in matters
of such Importance.

Y Notice has been received III larger
cities that the rate on insurance has
been increased 90 per cent as result
of the San Francisco fire and when
Kenosha people read of it, they
feared the same raise would be made
here.
However, inquiry from local insur
ance men reveals the fact that raise
is being made generally throughout
the United States in the larger cities,
larger than Kenosha. The local in
surance men state that they 60 not
think the raise will be made in cities

to pay with trouble and sorrow later
for their Indifference to the welfare
of their sons. The police have been

these boys knowing that their faults
are due more to the neglect of their
proper guardians than to any real
bad in the boys themselves, but the
time is coming when some of them

Dick Frederick Who Started to See the
World Stops at Waukegan
Costly sleeping on one of the bench
es in the mems waiting room, Richard
Broderick was last night awakened
by the police and exchanged the
warmth Of the Chicago & North West
ern station for the hardness of a cell
in the city jail.
This morning when he was brought
into the light of day and examined by
Assistant Chief Tyrrell, he said that
he was on his way to Chicago where
he was expected by his mother.
The willy police official, however,
thought that he knew better from the
young mans actions and hearing the
boy refer to Kenosha hazarded a te1e-
phone message to that city.
Chief O'Hare looked up the matter
and found that Broderick had run
away from his old mother ID the Wis
consin city and was on his way to the
western plains to engage in a death
dealing battle with the warning Utes,
like his friend, one Nicholas Carter.
Mrs. Frederick was anxious that
her son be sent back on the first car
and her will was carried out
What size slipper she wore can not
be learned, but from suspicious
sounds heard from the north, it is
judged that she used them.
Frederick told the local police that
he is 10 years old. His mother says
that he is Is.
The boy had $3.50 in his trousers
pocket and with this he expected to
buy arms, ammunition, jerked beef
and a khaki suit for use in his desper-
ate expedition against the Indians Of
the wild and wool1y west.
He had been employed as a bell hop
