GRABS HIS ORDER
McGovern Hurries to Give City q
Full Release Under His
Sewer Contract
DID NOT WANT TO GoTO COURT

All dealings between the city of
Kenosha and M. H. 'McGovern, the
Chicago sewer contrac tor, have been
closed for late Wednesday afternoon,
McGovern gave the city release
from all claims and accepted in lieu
of his claims the sum of $1,000 as
voted by the Council on Monday
night. 1t did not take McGovern long
to accept the amount offered by the
Council. He called up the Clerk
Wednesday morning and asked in re-
gard to the action that the Council
had taken and when he was advised
that the sum of So, 900 had been al
lowed him he informed the clerk that
he would come to Kenosha on the
first train to get the money and sign
the release. The next train brought
McGovern to Kenosha and when the
clerk returned to his Office in the
afternoon he found McGovern wait
ing for the door to be unlocked. The
order was at ONCE made out and sign
ed and the City Attorney was called
to draw the release and McGovern
hurried to the bank to get his money.
He managed to catch the next train
back to Chicago. It is generally be-
lieved that the settlement with Nc
Govern would have been made just as
quickly on basis of $500 as proposed
by the city engineer. McGovern
stated to the clerk that the amount
allowed By the city was too small but
that he would rather accept cut of
a little thing like nearly ten thousand
dollars rather than to lose the time in
fighting the city in the Circuit and
Supreme Courts of Wisconsin. The
facts Of the case we're apparent. Nc
Govern was tickled with the settle
ment.
There are still few bills in relation
to the old fight to be cleaned up.
F1agg, the former acting engineer,
claims SIS as expenses and ten dol
lars is claimed by w. J. Boyle. It is
very probable that these men will be
forced to wait quite time for the
money. The general belief among
che aldermen is that McGovern would
have a hard time getting another
sewer contract in Kenosha.

TRUEsDEL BOY RECOVERING
Russell Truesde1, Shot by His Brother
on Saturday, on the Way to Recovery


Russell Truesde1, the eight-year-
old son of Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Trues-
del, is slowly recovering from gun
shot wound inflicted by one Of his
brothers on last Saturday afternoon
and It is now thought that the little
boy is out of danger. Last Saturday
morning the injured boy and his
brothers went into the bed room of
the house and took revolver from
one of the drawers. The elder of the
boys was playing with the gun when
it was accidentally discharged aud
the bullet passed through the right
leg OF the younger boy. For several
days his condition was regarded as
serious but it is now thought that he
will recover. The injury to the boy
should point lesson to people in re.
gard to leaving FIRE arms where they
can be found by children.

PARIS CREAMERY BURNED
Swimming Station Owned by Frank
Biehn Burned Tuesday


The creamery station in the town
of Paris just south of Union Grove,
belonging to Frank Biehn, was de-
stroyed by fire Tuesday night at about
8 o'clock, causing loss of about
$1,000.
The station was in charge of Mike
Perry, who discovered the fire and
gave the alarm, but as there was no
protection and the FIRE had gained a
Roadway there was nothing to do but
watch it burn. The station was used
by Mr.. Biehn for receiving milk from
the farmers, and the cream was sepa-
rated and sent 80 the Union Grove
creamery to be manufactured into
butter. Mr.. Biehn was called to the
place and will doubtless soon make
arrangements for another station
there. There was some insurance on
the building.

CARRIERS MUST DECIDE
New Rule on Delivery of Mail Leaves
Sunday Opening to Carriers

According to new ruling by the
fourth assistant postmaster general,
1t rests with the carriers whether or
not kenosha people shall receive their
mail at the carriers window, as has
been the custom heretofore on days
on which no deliveries we're made on
the routes.
According to the new ruling, mail
addressed to your street or number
must be delivered there, and if this is
not satisfactory to you, you have two
ways to get your mail besides. One
is to receive it at the general delivery
window and the other is to rent box.
The following notice has been sent
out to postrnasters:
"You'are informed that the clerks
cannot be required to search carriers
cases for mail addressed to delivery
by carrier. Patrons of a city deliv.
ering Office have the privilege of re-
ceiving their mail in either of three
ways as they elect. By carrier,
through general delivery or in
ASAAeS0 OOAs AOy NduuOl 1CCC1VS
part in one .way.and the remainder in
another unlesslsit is specifically ad-
dressed for such delivery"
It is sproba BILE, however, that car
riers of this.city Twill continue to de-
liver mail to patrons at the carriers
window to business men and others
who wantsto get their mail before the
carriers come around, but it will be
optional with the carrier whether or
not he does this. Mail addressed to
hotel or,boardingshouse bearing your
name, but.having' number of the
hotel or houses where you are sup
posed to be stopping or addressed in
care of such number or proprietor,
must be delivered to the place ad-
dressed. Should the carrier deliver it
to you on the street or the office he
would besdisobeying the rules of the
department and in case of complaint
being made, would be in for repri-
mand.

The Committee on Buildings and
Grounds Will Favor Turning
it Over to Association
LEGALITY OF PLAN PUZZLES
City May be Forced to Make Ten
Year Contract With the Assoc
citation, After Which Grounds
Will be Turned Over

After long meeting Thursday
afternoon at which members of the
Council committee on buildings and
grounds and members of the Kenosha
Cemetery Association were present
it was practically decided that the
Kenosha city cemetery shall be turn
ed over to the Cemetery Association
for management under the terms pro-
posed in the proposition made by the
Association to the Council several
months ago. These terms provided
that the Association should lift from
the shoulders of the Council all he
burden of caring for the cemetery in
consideration of payment of $500 a
year and with the further consider
alton that at the end of ten years all
payments on the part of the city
should cease. Added to this it is un-
derstood that the Association will at
once expend large sum Of money in
improving the cemetery. The plan
will make it necessary for the Associ-
alton to hire the city sexton and to
have entire charge of the cleaning
up and maintaining of the cemetery.
It is thought that the recommend
atoms Of the committee will meet
with favor with the Council and it is
possible that the matter will be laid
before the Council at the adjourned
session this evening.
There was considerable discussion
at the meeting as to the amount to be
paid by the city to the association,
but it is thought that in consideration
of the fact that the city pays but for
ten years that the arrangement is an
equita bic one. The plan is just this.
The city will pay to the Kenosha
Cemetery Association $4,000 in re-
turn for perpet Al care of the city of
the dead.
Some of the members of the COM
mittee have questioned the right of
the city to turn the cemetery over to
the Association with the appropria-
ton as planned for and these people
declare that the City Council could
not make the appropriation on ac-
count of the fact that the property
would no longer be the property of
the city, bat this objection is to be
eliminated by the Council making a
contract with the Association for a
period of ten years after which it is to
be specifically stated that the pay
ments of the city are to stop and the
property will become the property of
the Association. If these vexed
points of the law can be settled at
once it is probable that the Associa-
ton will take hold within a few
weeks.
The Association already has large
number of members and there is little
doubt but that the money needed to
take care of the cemetery can be
raised in a short time. Wealthy men
of the city Interested in the future
condition Of the cemetery have taken
up the matter with zeal and they
promise to fulfill every promise that
has been made by the directors of the
| Association. The Association is
anxious to get to work at once and
| for this reason the Council will be
asked to act on the report of the com.
mittee at the earliest possible moment
