No Trace Of the Remains Of John
GiIlett Found in Big Tank Of
the Gas Company
CAMERON CONDUCTS SEARCH
Tank is Raised to Surface of the Ground
and Pit Under Tt Is Thoroughly
Searched Without Avail.
Officials Satisfied

The officials Of the city are satisfied
that the remains of John Gillett, who
has been missing from the city for
many months, are not in the pit under
the big gas tank at the plant of the
Kenosha Gas and Electric Company,
as this morning the big tank was
raised and the pit filled with water
thoroughly dragged for the body Of
the missing man. Absolutely nothing
was found.
The company consented to the rails
ing Of the tank at the request Of
the Special Council Committee named
by Mayor German on Monday even
ing. It was decidedly difficnlt task,
but the managers Of the company
thought that it would be best to have
all doubts removed IN regard to this
as a possible fate Of the missing man,
and to this end the tank was filled
with sufficient gas to raise il to the
surface Of the ground. This made it
possible for all portions Of the pit to
be dragged.
Under the direction of the committee
Captain Cameron Of the life saving
station and Joseph Orth, superinten-
ldent of the gas plant, took charge Of
the search. For more than an hour
the two men dragged in the pit and
found absolutely nothing. The Off
Icia1s were satisfied that it was i'm
possible for the body Of Gi1lett to be
in the pit. An examination Of the
construction Of the pit after the tank
| had been lifted showed that it would
have been almost an possibility
| for Gi1lett to have drowned lin the pit
unless he had deliberately rolled into
| the pit with the desire of committing
suicide. After the examination was
over Captain Cameron gave it as his
opinion that Gillett's body could not
be in the tank. An examination of
the records of the gas company sup
ports this theory as they'show that on
the night Gillett disappeared there
was little or no gas il the tank and
| it was almost to the surface of the
surrounding ground. 1t is claimed
by superintendent Ortiz that should
Gi11ett have lost his balance and fell
while standing near. the tank he
would simply have struck the top of
the tank and would noe have fallen
into the water in the pit.
With the searching of this tank the
last theory as to the whereabouts Of
the missing man has been destroyed,
and it now seems very probable that
the mystery Of his disappearance will
never be solved. Captain Cameron
thinks that it is possible, that the re-
mains Of Gillett might have been
frozen in the ice in the river and have
/ been carried ont intoSthe lake where
| they sunk, and he thinks it is possible
| that the remains may yet float in on
| the waters of the lake.
It is also possible that Gillett left
the city, and that he may sometime
return to give an account of his long
/ absence. IF this we're the case the
/ missing man has carefully concealed
his whereabouts, as nothing has ever
been heard or seen Of him since the
| night he disappeared.

DEAL rs PERFECTED
Government Gets Title to Site
for Proposed Postoffice Build
ing and Work viii Start
USUAL DELAYS EXPECTED

The Hon. E. G. Tinme, Auditor of
the United States Post Office, is here
for his annual vacation and since his
arrival he has received letter from
Architect Taylor, who is in charge of
the construction Of public buildings
which seems to indicate that there is
reason to believe that the Kenosha
post Office building will be completed
within the next twelve months.
Architect Taylor states that the title
for the site for the building at the
corner of Chicago and Market streets
was perfected by the government on
July 10th and the Kenosha building
was placed on the list of those for
which plans were to be drawn at that
time. Kenosha is No. SO on the list,
but as the plans are reeled off pretty
rapidly in the Office it is thought that
the Kenosha plans will be ready in
time to allow work to be started this
year. Mr.. Timme states that it is the
plan of the department to have the
foundations completed this fall so
that the work of putting up the walls
may start with the early spring.
After the plans are made it will be
necessary to advertise for, bids for
three weeks and after the contract is
let and the contractor has put up his
bonds there will be nothing to stop
the work. The entire appropriation
for the building will be Immediately
available SO that there will be no de-
lay in waiting for appropriations
from Congress.
Mr.. Timme states that the depart
ment is planning to put up splendid
building in Kenosha and he has been
asked to give some suggestions in re-
gard to the general plan of the build
ing. It is planned to have the build
ing have two fronts, one on Market
street to the north and another facing
Market Square on the east. The
building will be either Of Wisconsin
or Bedford limestone and one story in
height. It will be arranged as a
modern post Office building in every
way. The entire sixty thousand doll
lars now in the hands of the depart
| ment and credited to the Keuosha ac-
count will be expended for the build
ing and whatever is spent for the fur
Inishings and for the Improvement of
the grounds will be taken from the
general fund of the postoffice depart
ment. The local contractors will be
given chance to bid on the job of
erecting the building and it is stated
that the department would favor local
bidders to every extent possible. The
contract will also demand that local
labor be given the preference in the
erection Of the building, but if it is
impossible to get the labor in Kenosha
there will be nothing in the contract
to prevent the employment Of labor
ers from other cities. With good luck
the building should be ready for the
use of the local postoffice by the first
Of next September. However, the
work in other cities has shown that
government work moves slowly and
the building may not be completed
until 1909.

ther, for that matter, is compliment.
yet It is one that is less used than any
other. The beauty and graces that in
our courtship days drew forth the most
extravagant praise are suffered to pass
unnOticed or unmentioned in later
years. The little attentions that once
so delighted US become mere matters
as our right and without comment.
Yet all the time that dear little woman
hungers for the recognition that is
her due, longs with the longing that
man cannot understand for the little
word that expresses your continued
admiration, for the little acts that are
proof OF your undiminished affection,
for the evidences Of your appreciation
Of her efforts to make you comfortable
and happy. She hungers. but all too
often her love Is allowed to slowly
perish from starvation. The heart
dries up from lack Of nourishment. and
the blind man wonders at the change.
No matter how strong your love may
be, no matter how much you appre-
ciate her laborS and her personal at
tentions to you, all this has little value
to her unless 1t is expressed In some
form. Still waters run deep, you have

AY DEAR JOHN-Your mother
requests me to inclose her
recipe for making biscuits
for which you asked her. Sho
Is too tired to write tonight but in this
connection she has made few re-
marks, and, as you have reason to
know. there's always more good boss
sense In what she says than you can
find in days search through the writ
ings Of the philosophers, from Plato to
Tom Lawson. I have q few thoughts
Of my own on the subject, and am
going to mix them up with those Of
your mother and send 'em along for
your edification-sort Of an admonitory
sandwich III which the meat Is from
her and crusts from your dad.
The Joke about mothers biscuits Is
so old that these scientific fellows who
chase the painting syllable back to
Noahs ark" have found traces Of it in
the ruins Of Nineveh, and it is appar-
ent that 1t had lost its youthful fresh
ness even then. But the fact that it
survives the centuries proves that it Is

family affairs. The gustatory sense Is

most acute in youth. AS boys our chief
characteristic is an internal and unap-
peasable hunger. Everything we put
into our little lnsdes, from batter
cakes to ice cream soda, gives us en-
joyment that is animal in its ferocity.
Naturally the person who provides us
with the pleasures of the table during
this period becomes the culinary ideal
Of our lives. You never taste such
mince pies as mother used to make.
Mother makes the same pies now, uses
the same ingredients and mixes them
with the same consummate skill, but
they wouldn't give you the supreme
satisfaction they once did. The trouble
isn't with the pies, my boy. 1t is that
you have changed.
Not Parallel Case.
So for this reason and some others
it is not fair to compare your wife's
cooking with that upon which you fed
in your growing days. In these times
Of really practical cooking schools it Is
possible to find young women who can
give the most experienced housewives
a handicap and beat 'em by length.
Understand me, say it is possible, but
you would probably have to search a
long time before discovering such a
one. Cooking schools. however excel
lent, are like all other schools. They
merely lay the foundations Of an edu-
cation that must be completed In the
postgraduate university of practical
experience, and it is only once in
awhile that they turn out full fledged
cook. The average young housewife
knows little-usually a very little
about cooking. and yet the average
man expects her to have the culinary
skill Of $4,000 chef or of a woman
who has been experimenting a kitchen
for n generation. What they ought to
do. what you ought to do, Is to forget
that you ever had a mother when you
come to the table. and. II you can't
help making comparisons for heavens
sake keep 'em to yourself. Give her a
chance. She'll learn and with little
encouragement she'll soon be making
pies as good as mammals best. You

won't be able to enjoy them quite SO
well, because you have lost some Of
your capacity for enjoyment and you
can't appreciate their equal excellence
because you have placed halo around
the memory of mammals pies. Your
mother is mighty good cook, but she
lacked whole lot of being one when
married her thirty years ago. and your
wife will have to be ground through
