BY NIGHT AND DAY
Chicago and Milwaukee to Work
Day and Night Gangs to Rush
Work on New Extension
USE ELEVEN STEAM SHovELs

President A. c. Frost of the Chicago
& Milwaukee Railway company was
In kenosha Tuesday and during his
short stay in Kenosha he announced
that the people of Southern Wiscon-
sin were to be given an object lesson
IN the matter of the rapid construc-
.tion of railways in connection with
the completion of the tracks of the
Chicago & Milwaukee into Milwaukee.
He announced that cars would berun-
ming into the general terminal of the
company in that city by the first day
of November and already arrange
ments are being made for the cere-
monies which will attend the opening
of the new branch OF. the line.
Nearly twenty miles of the road is
yet to be built and in order to force
the completion more than a thousand
men will be employed by the COM
pany and the work will be carried
forward both by night and by day.
A blaze of light will be seen through
Racine and Milwaukee counties, as the
contractors in charge of the work
have arranged for the building of an
electric lighting system to light up
the entire right of way making the
night work possible. The work will
be carried forward with eleven steam
shovels and millions of cubic feet of
earth will be removed within the next
few months. The company has pur-
chased all the appliances necessary
for the com pletion of the line and it
will be finished just as rapidly as
possible. 1t is possible that cars will
be running as far north as South Mil
waukee by the first Of August and as
soon as the tracks are laid the SER
vice will be inaugurated. The people
along the line seem to be anxious for
the service.
The gang of men now employed in
the building of the line is the largest
ever employed by the Chicago and
Milwaukee road. Mr.. Frost had
planned to put part of this force to
work on the Kenosha extensions, but
this was not possible at this time on
account of the fact that the company
has been unable to get the rails
needed for the work in Kenosha.
President Frost had planned to
present his side of the rail contro-
versy to the Council at the meeting on
Monday night, but the Council ad-
jonrned without giving him chance
to take up the matter.

LIMIT LAWS SCOPE
Some Changes Proposed in the Pri-
mary Election Law

AAOpOSS0 IN the Ell
mary Election Law
A bill has been drawn at the re-
quest OF the assembly committee on
elections by Assistant Attorney Gen
eral Frank Tucker with the assist
ance of A. T. forge, assistant secre-
tary of state, and L. M. Sturdevant.
former attorney general, now legal
advisor of Gov. Davidson, embodying
several changes in the primary cleo
ton law.
The proposed law provides NUM-
Der OF improvements to the present
statute, the most i'm portant being the
exemption of cities of the fourth
class from its provisions. There is
some sentiment in the committee in
favor of exempting all cities from the
provisions of the primary election, on
the ground that party politics have
no place in municipal elections.
Another proposed change is a re-
peal of the provision for non .partisa a
nominations. The proposed law also
provides that in order to Secure a
party nomination a candidate must
nave received as many votes as he
had signed to his nomination papers.
It also provides for the creation of
city committees to conduct cam paigns
and the method of selecting party
committees in counties and Legisla-
tive and Congressional districts has
been simplifed. The matter of clos.
ing saloons on primary day is clearly
set forth. The pasteing in of names
on primary ballots is prohibited.
The question has arisen as to the
closing of saloons on primary election
day The attorney general has held
that under the section they should be
closed. The assistant attorney gen
eral thinks, however, that there
should be a plain provision concern
ing this matter inserted in the primary
law.

Department Withdraws Rural
Service from Some Portions Of
kenosha & Racine Counties
ROADS WERE NOT IMPROVED
Other Routes Will Probably be With
drawn Later If the Farmers Do
Not Take Action To Re-
pair the Roads

The United States Government has
seut out an official order discontinue
ing rural mail delivery to seven of the
patrons of Route 81 on account of the
fact that these people failed to COM
ply with the orders of the government
to repair the roads used by the car
rier and it is pretty certain that the
at least. The route is one of the Ke-
nOsha routes and leads from Kenosha
through the town of Somers into RAJ
cine county. AT the northern end of
the route there was one bad piece of
road where the carrier found it al
most impossible to make his trip.
The condition of the road was report
ed and the farmers living along it
were ordered to repair it at once. As
the road ran on the line between the
two counties there was great deal
of delay in repairing the road and the
post office authorities finally ordered
the service discontinued so far as this
road was concerned. The order will
not effect the remaining portion of
the route and the route will be
changed so that the carrier will have
mile added to the west instead of to
the north.
Postmaster Maloney, when seen
this morning, stated that the action
of the government in disseminating
the delivery on this route was in keep
ing with the former orders, and he
admitted that there was danger Of
other routes being discontinued with
the first of next mouth. At the pres
ent time the department is not con-
sidering the withdrawal of the SER
vice from any other routes out of Ke-
nosl1a, but repeated complaints have
been made against some of the roads
in the western part of the county and
it is possible that several other routes
will be affected by the next order sent
out by the department. In this sec
Etion of the county the farmers have
needed the warning of the Fourth
Assistant Postmaster General and
some work has been done on the
roads. Before the opening of the
winter season every road in the
county will be personally investigated
byrone of the government inspectors
and on his report will depend the con-
tinuance of the rural carrier service.
While it is not expected that any of
the routes out of Kenosha will be
abandoned altogether, the routes will
be SO changed as to cut out all pat
rons living on roads which are impas-
sable to the. carriers. Some of the
patrons on route 81 who lost the serv-
ice on account of the order, are now
making an effort to secure rural de-
livery from Racine, but it is not
thought that the Post Office Depart
ment will act favorably on their petit
ton, and they will have to wait a
year before the service can be re-
stored even if the roads are improved.
The action of the department should
point lesson to the farmers in other
parts of the comfy. 1t is evident
that the Post Office officials are not
making any bluff in the matter, and
that they mean just what has been
said in the orders recently issued.

new form, it having been entirely re-
written, it is said to be even a greater
laugh maker than it was last season.
AS now presented it is a full three
hours of almost incessant laughter
relieved here and there by an occa-
sional dance or an intricate march.
Many tuneful airs also are introduced
among the more popular of which are

ton," Goodbye My Sailor Boy, "
"Cheer Up Mary" "Moon Dear"

with which these numbers will be
presented is greatly enhanced by the
aid of rich costumes and some newly
invented electrical apparatus. The
cast is exceptionally strong and the
production unusually handsome. Re-
member the matinee. Seats on sale.
Sweet Glover
One of the most pleasing offerings
of the season will be return of the
old favorite 'Sweet Clover" on Tues

house. This beautiful comedy drama
is the work of two clever newspaper
and magazine writer's, the Misses
Pauline Phelps and Marion Short,

o." is again breaking records every
where and will be seen at the Rhode

of novelties in this enchanting show.
The fun is boisterous, but it is whole
some. The music is light, but pleas
ing. The stage pictures are beauti-
full beyond words, and the bewildered
spectator is satisfied Nth visions of
fairyland until finally che radiant
glimpse of the very heart of dream
land is reached, within whose rosy
hued confines the fairy tale comes to
a fitting end.

MARY sWEENY DEAD

Unfortunate Woman With a Police
Record in Kenosha Died Tuesday
Mary Sweeney, an old woman often
arrested in Kenosha, is dead. Death
came Saturday night at Anota,
M'~u., where the old woman had been
or the past ten days. Mrs.
Sweeney was known to the police in
nearly every city in the northwest
and she had spent many nights in the
kenosha common Jail.
There is pathetic story in con.
nection with the life of the woman
which was not generally known to the
police officers who had repeatedly ar
rested her and placed her in cell.
The woman was formerly q school
teacher, but when a very young
woman her heart was broken on ac-
count of her failure to marry a man
to whom she had been engaged and
she took to the use of opium. The
habit grew on her to such an extent
that she soon became a common va
grant and for the past ten years she
had been travelling about the country
as the consort of common tramps.
Hustled from city to city by the police
officers she sank to the lowest depths
of degradation. The woman had been
sick for many months and when she
reached Anoka ten days ago the Off
Gals of that city took pity on her and
sent her to hospital where she died.
Mrs. Sweeney was arrested in Ke-
nosha less than year ago, but she
had not been seen here since her re-
