Government Agents Investigating
the Removal Of Lightkeeper
deDiemar in .Kenosha
REPORT is HELD A SECRET

Agents of the United States Gov
ernment connected with the Light
house service have been in the city
during the past two days investigat-
ing the removal of L. n. deDiemar,
who for many years was the keeper of
the Kenosha light. The investiga-
tons for the department have been
conducted in very quiet manner and
nothing has been given out by any of
the agents of the government in re-
gard to the probable outcome of the
affair. It is thought THAT the men
we're sent to Kenosha at the sugges-
ton of President Roosevelt. The let
ter sent by well known Kenoshans to
the President asking that Mr., de-
Diemar be retained in Office, has not
as yet been answered, but this fact is
attributed to the fact that the Presi-
dent is at Oyster Bay, and it is
thought that he has already taken up
the investigation of the case and that
he will make report as soon as he
returns to Washington.
The new keeper of the Kenosha
light has been in charge of the lig hit
house for two weeks today and former
keeper deDiemar has retired to private
life. The friends of deDiemar insist
that he has not had fair treatment,
considering his long service with the
department, and it is pretty certain
that the Kenosha men will insist that
the fullest investigation be made and
that deDiemar be restored to his posi-
tioh if he was removed without sufi.
cient cause. The former light keeper
has made absolutely no statement of
a public nature nor has he told his
troubles to his nearest friends. He
has simply stated that he desires the
fullest investigation and Ethat the
causes of his removal be made public.
It is doubtful if Mr.. deDiemar would
be willing to accept an appointment
to some other lighthouse district even
if it should be offered to him by the
department. The inspectorshas not
been in the city sincestheichange was
made at the station and it is under
stood that the investigation being
ma de is directly under the department
at Washington and not the district
organization.

FEAR FOR DR.. LEE
Somers Man Serving as a Miss
ionary in Turkey in Terri
tory Being Attacked
MANY MISSIONARIES IN PERIL
DIR. Lee Has Been at Marash, Turkey
for More Than a Score of Years
and Is Widely Known as a
Teacher and Preacher

Some anxiety has been caused in
the town of Somers by the report that
serious troubles have broken out in
Northwestern Turkey and Persia
where bands of Turks and Persians
have attacked the mission houses and
are threatening to destroy the coll
leges and schools and massacre the
missionaries. The anxiety in Somers
is made more keen on account of the
fact that the Rev. Lucius 0. Lee of
Somers is one of the 1eadings EMISSION
aries at Marash, Turkey.
The city of Marash is over 200 miles
from the scene of the present out
break, but the dispatches from Tehe-
ran indicate that the conditions
throughout this territoryl are very
much disturbed, and it is feared that
the raids which were started on the
very boundary line of Turkey and
Persia will extend into Northwest
Turkey. There was serious out
break at Urumiah Monday in which
some sixty of the Christians and sew
eral missionaries were killed. The
news of the outrages is being sup
pressed by the Persian government.
The relatives of DR.. Lee in Somers
have received no warning of danger
from him, but the whole trouble be-
tween the natives and the mission
aries has developed rapidly within
the past few days, and it is possible
that he has not as yet had time to
communicate his fears to the Amer
lean Board of Missions of the Presby-
terrain church or to his friends at
home. Marash is a city of 10000
people, and it is one of the strongest
points for missions in Turkey. DR..
Lee has been very Jealous in the
work, and for this reason it is feared
that he would be a target for the
wrath Of the men melted against the
followers of the Christian religion.
The Somers man is son of the late
Leonard Lee. He was born and
raised in the town of Somers and
after he had completed his education
at Oberlin college, in Ohio, he vol
unteered to go TO Turkey as mis-
sionary. He has been in Marash for
more than twenty years and is ole of
The most influential among the mis-
sion workers. He is at the present
time president of the Presbyterian
Theological seminary at Marash. DR..
Lee has largely given his life to Tur-
key and the Turks. He was thrice
married in that country and buried
two of his wives in the little mission
cemetery there. He has several chill
dren and it is thought that they are
with him.
The Presbyterian Board of Missions
in Chicago late last night gave out a
statement that they had received no
authoritative report of the outrage at
Urumiah, but that the Board at the
New York Office was expecting to get
report as soon as any of the mis-.
sionaries could find means to COM
municate with it. DR.. Lee is serving
under the Chicago Board, but he has
been regarded as a representative of
the Presbyterian church in Somers of
which he was at one time a member.
Developments in the case will be
watched with the keenest interest by
the friends of DR.. Lee in Somers and
in other parts Of the county.

CRICKET MATCH

One of the biggest and classiest
cricket matches ever played ins Wis
consin, will take place at Kenosha on

the Chicago Cricket club will meet an
all star team composed of the pick of
the Milwaukee, Racine and Kenosha
clubs. Secretary E. B. Naish, of the

be named Halberstadt Court. The
street is located directly back of the
site Tor the new post Office building
and the court house and has been i'm.
proved at the expense of the owner
The street was accepted and it will be
added to the regular plat Of the city
at once.
Mrs. Charlotte Thomas and Matilda
irving raised unique question for
the Council to solve when they sent a
petition to the Council demanding the
return Of S84 which they had paid for
the building of sewer on Milwaukee
avenue. The sewer was built in 1898
and the petitioners declared that it
had been of no value to them as it
was worthless as sewer and that for
this reason they thought it but fair
that the city should refund to them
the money they had paid for the con-
struction of the sewer. The matter
was referred to the committee on
sewers with the city attorney added.
The action on the petition will be
watched with interest as favorable
action would open the way for many
other similar demands for rebates,
Many new sidewalks we're proposed
and all of them will be included in the
new sidewalk ordinance which will be
presented to the Council at the adj
iourned session this evening.
A petition was presented asking
for the paving of Ashland avenue
from South street north to Grand ave-
nue., and the street assessment COM
mittee presented favorable report on
the paving of the street south from
South street to Julius street. 1t is
not probable that the work will be
done this season. The petition for
the paving of Dayton street from Chi
cago street to Ashland avenue was
not reported favorably.
There was long discussion in re-
gard to grades on South Exchange
street, and the committee on streets
and alleys with the City Engineer
will make a trip to the street today
and make another effort to settle on
grade. Along the same line an ordi-
nance was presented and given it's
first reading, which has for its pur-
pose the protection of the property
owners against sidewalk contractors.
The ordinance provides that all con-
tractors shall give bond to assure
the city that the walks will be laid at
the grade given by the City Engineer.
The special committee In charge of
the search for the body of John Gill
lett reported that the diver had
searched the tank at the gas plant
and had found nothing, and that the
search had cost the city $50. The
bill was allowed and the committee
discharged.
There was loud protest against
the sprinkling work on West Prairie
avenue, and on the motion of Alder.
man O'Brien, who has the contract
for the work, the protest was received
and placed on file. The alderman
promised to see to the work in the
future and have it done strictly in
keeping with the contract. The
Council ordered all the bridges in the
city repainted.
The work of flushing the streets is
to be continued, and the Council
authorized the purchase Of four
lengths of hose to be used expressly
for this purpose.

FOR BETTER ROADS
Farmers Receive Call for a Good
Roads Convention to Be
Held in Milwaukee
PROMINENT MEN INTERESTED

3
Farmers in all parts of the county
received this morning invitations
to attend Good Roads Convention to
be held in Milwaukee during the COM
ing State Fair week, and it is ex-
pected that every town in the county
will send delegates to the convention.
1t is the plan of the prominent men
connected with the convention to
make it the biggest thing of the kind
ever held in the West, and it is ex-
pected that every county in the state
will be represented. The official call
for the convention is as follows:
ut is matter of common knowl-
edge that much Of the expense and
effort now put upon our country roads
is wasted because of lack of interest
Experience has demonstrated that
better roads can be built for the same
money that is now being expended.
Good roads mean more prosperous
farmers and merchants, more intel
ligent citizens, they bring large in
creases in land values and are among
the best means of developing the state
and increasing the amount of business
that can be done.
Because of these facts and be-
cause there is a general awakening
of interest in roads throughout the
state, the undersigned believe the
time is ripe for the inauguration of a
strong movement for the lettering of
our country roads. We therefore join
in issuing the call for State Good
Roads Convention to be held in Mil
waukee on Thursday, September 18th,
at the State Fair Grounds. We urge
every interested person to be present
and lend his assistance to this move
ment, which is of very Importance to
our state.
