One OF the most troublesome results
OF hot. humid weather is suffering
feet. They swell and burn and ache
in spite Of soft. well-ftting shoes. A
daily hot bath is the first and simplest
remedy. Then hot salt water is good,
especially sea water. A pleasant. re-
freshing lotion is cologne water or
camphorated oil. Should soft corns
appear between the toes. separate
with a bit Of old linen powdered with
tannin or alum. The latter is also
considered excellent to be used in a
bathing lotion. This powder sprinkled
on the feet as talcum or any toilet
preparation is very healing; tannis,
thirty drains; lycopcdium, three
drains; alum. one dram.

WOULD HONOR DEAD
Local Veterans and Patriotic Citi-
zens Want Appropriation for
a vicksburg Memorial
MANY KENOSHA MEN FELL

In order that Wisconsin soldiers who
fell in the trenches during the siege
of Vicksburg may be properly
honored, members of the Grand Army
of the Republic in Kenosha are cir
| cu1ating petitions asking that the
State Legislature of Wisconsin app
propriate the sum Of 100000 to be
used iii the erection of suitable mon
ument to the Wisconsin heroes who fell
at the memorable battle field. Com
mander George Hale, who was one of
the commissioned officers of the 33rd
Wisconsin regiment which took
part in the campaign at Vicksburg, is
taking great interest ia the plan
| for the memorial and is circulating
the petition to the Legislature in Ke-
nosha, The petition is being signed
by many people and it is a noticeable
| fact that the name of z. g. Simmons
heads the list. While Kenosha county
is the first in the state to take up this
plan of securing memorial at Vicks-
burg; the petitions will be circulated
in every county in the state and it is
expected that great number of petit
tons will be sent to the legislature
asking for the appropriation.
It is most fitting that the memory
of Wisconsin soldiers who fell at
Vicksburg should be honored and Ke--
nosha people, more than any others
IN the state should take an interest in
this movement. When Vicksburg
fell there were seventeen Wisconsin
commands encamped about the South
ern city, and in these commands were
more than 500 soldiers who had enc
/ listed from Kenosha county. Among
the commands which contained sold
iers from Kenosha county were the.
/ 33rd Wisconsin Volunteer infantry.
the 18th Wisconsin infantry, the 9Th.
Wisconsin infantry and several of the
details Of the 1st Wisconsin cavalry.
The 33rd was at Vicksburg for many
weeks and it is claimed that the bodies
of no less than fifty Kenosha county
soldiers belonging to this command
were left on the battle field after the
fight was over,
Commander Hale recently went to
Vicksburg and assisted in setting
markers to show the place where the
Wisconsin men fought and died, and
he is very much in favor of the APP
preparation. Other states in the
Union have already taken action to
build splendid monuments to the
memory of their dead at vicksburg,
and there is every reason to believe
that the Wisconsin Legislature will
follow suit.
With the appropriation asked in
the petition it would be possible for
the state to erect a monument that
would be in keeping with those
erected by other states on the historic
battle field. The advance of the move
ment to secure this appropriation vii.
be watched with a great deal of inter-
est by the friends, comrades and
relatives of the Kenosha county men
who fell on the Vicksburg battle field.

THE ENTERPRISE FROM THE
BEGINNING.

The development into concrete form of
the tremendous energy of the Connecticut
river as 1t flows past Brattleboro has been
a dream of the past half century-per-
haps of the past century The first def
mite movement in this direction was the
survey and calculations which Gov. l.. X.
Fuller had made by engineers In 1883
This was before the era of electrical
power and electrical transmission, ana
the investigation contemplated dam
with canals to convey the water to mills
to be erected on the meadows at and be-
low Brattleboro, in the same general way
that the energy of the river is used at
Holyoke. The uncertainty or securing IN
dustries enough to use the power on a
profitable basis caused the enterprise TO
be dropped after the surveys were made
Five years ago, in the spring or l9Oz'
the idea of developing the power or the
Connecticut river was again taken up py
two or three Brattleboro men who were
discussing measures for the towns ad-
vancement. The way in which electrical
power was being transmitted over long
distances seemed to make this project
come within the range of possibilities ana
the result of the conference was that a
subscription paper was circulated among
the business men of the village TO raise
the money for a preliminary survey OF
Vinton heading the paper with S5O' other
persons and firms giving a like amount
and practically all of the business men
| contributing.
A citizens meeting was held to choose
a committee to take charge of the move
| ment, and w. II. Vinton, c. W. Durham
| and c. A. Harris were chosen such COM
! mittee These men caused preliminary
| survey to be made, and at the session OF
! the legislature of 1902 bill for the char

! many was introduced by DR.. James Con-
! land. the representative from Brattle-
boro. Opposition developed from riparian
owners, from the railroad company and
from the owners Of the Bellows FANS
| Canal company, and a hearing was held
before the committee of the legislature
| Clarke C. Fits appearing as counsel Tor
the committee. The committee and nu-
merous other Brattleboro citizens were
present at this hearing. Provisions were
introduced which satisfied the opponents
of the enterprise and the charter was
