New Mediums in Decoration.

That cement and concrete are des-
tined to supplant to a large extent
stone, terra Gotta, marble and other
materials now used for decorative
purposes is the opinion expressed by
an editorial writer in Cement Age.
Economy has been the chief factor
in the development of ornamental
work in concrete. After a mold is
made the cost of production becomes
the yeriest trifle as compared with
stone or marble. AS an artistic me-
dunn concrete is quite as good as
stone or terra Gotta. Considering its
greater economy It may be employ
ed in many cases where the cost OF
cut stone would be prohibitive and
terra Gotta unsuitable. Its use en-
braces not only statuary garden fur
niture, fountains and urns, but or
namental walls, bridges and balus-
trades, In fact, and entire estate. so
far as buildings and structural feat
ures are concerned, might well be
of concrete, from the dwelling to the
least of objects intended to orna-
ment garden or lawn. Concerning
artistic designs in concrete, there is
no limit to the resources of the
worker. If he is of the faith that re-
iects all that is modern and origin
al, and admires only the master
pieces of the old world, the plaster
mold will furnish him with an al
most exact reproduction of designs
wrought by hand. The most intricate
and elaborate patterns, which may
have involved months or years of
toll on the part of their creator, may
be duplicated in concrete in a few
days. When We consider the ex-
IRENE durability OF concrete in con-
nection with the low cost of produc-
ton, one is impressed with the great
future awaiting it in the domain of
decorative work

which the curative, medicinal ele

of that nauseating part OF this yalu-

reasons to believe that the anti-Bai-

to feel very much gratified over the
results following Senator Bailey S

The Fort Worth Record sizes up
the anti-Bailey strength in Ellis
county at about 5000. Admitting
that this is some where near right
and taking the vote cast in the last
democratic primary for governor as
a basis on which to figure and the
Record has placed the supporters of
Senator Bailey in bad hole The
four candidates for governor polled
$3.50 votes, and this will probably
about represent the voting strength
of the May I'd primary. If the anti
Baileyites are 5000 strong where is
that big Bailey majority coming
from? Things always look funny

DEBs HERE SUNDAY
Red Special to Remain in KenoSha
for Half an Hour Sunday Morning


Kenosha Social Democrats will wind
up the campaign next Sunday morning
in blaze of glory when the famous
Red Special which has been one of
the most picturesque features of the
campaign will be in Kenosha for a
half an hour 1t will bring Eugene v.
Debs, the famous Social Democratic
candidate for president and he is slated
to make an address of half an hour
here. Debs will give Friday and Sat
urday to Wisconsin. He speaks in
Milwaukee Friday night and spends
Saturday with the Socialists in that
city. He will reach Racine late Sat
urday afternoon and speak there in
the evening and leave for Kenosha
early Sunday morning. He is slated
to arrive here at 9:45 and will remain
until 10:15. The Social Democrats of
the city are planning to make this the
biggest gathering Of the campaign in
Kenosha and notwithstanding the fact
that Debs comes on Sunday morning it
is expected that hundreds of people
will hear him.
Many prominent Socialists will be
on the "Red Special with the can
didate, but on account of the short
stop it is probable that Debs will be
the only speaker.

BROWN DEFENDS SOCIALISM
Former Kenosha Minister Speaks to
Large Crowd at the Opera House

The Rev. Harvey Dee Brown, former
pastor of the First Baptist church in
this city and now the Social Democra-
tic candidate for governor Of Wiscon-
sin, made vigorous presentation of
the tenets of his party at the Rhode
Opera House Monday evening and the
speech was well received by a crowd
of 500 people which heard it.. Mr..
Brown has improved wonderfully since
he took the stump and he made a
speech that was decidedly interesting
to his hearers. He took up the various
phases of the social problem and dis
cussed them from the standpoint of a
Social Democrat. The meeting was one
Of the largest of the year and many of
the members of the Baptist church who
were former Pensioners Of Mr. Brown
were in the audience.
The campaign will be lightened up
a little TINS evening when Joseph G.
Donelly of Milwaukee will come to
Kenosha to speak for the Democrats.
He is an orator and will undoubtedly
have a crowd.

Addition to kenOsha Life Saving
Station to be Erected Before
End of Present Year
MORE COMFORTS FOR CREW
Cottage Will Be Built for Use as Home
of Keeper of Station and Rooms
Provided for the Vic
Tins of Disasters

Captain Frank Fountain of the Ke-
nosha Life Saving Crew has been mott
fed by the United States Life Saving
Board that bids are now being received
for the remodeling of the Kenosha.
Life Saving Station and it is planned
to have the work completed during the
present year The plans for the i'm
provements are now in the hands of
the contractors and it is thought that
the work will be started next week.
While the plans do not provide for the
building of new station the work
planned for is so extensive that it will
practically mean a new building. All
of the interior of the present station
wiM be changed and the plans will pro-
vide for the KenOsha crew an up-to-
date home in every way and one of the
most model homes held by any crew
on the great lakes. The plans include
the building of sixteen foot addition
to the east end OF the building to pro,
vide room for the housing of a power
boat which is to be sent to this sta
tion by the board early in next year.
1t was reported a year ago that this
sort Of boat would be sent to Kenosha,
but the board has not as yet ordered
it sent here and it will not DE sent
until after the station is rebuilt. This
will give more room for quarters for
the crew and it is planned to put all
modern conveniences in the station.
At present the station is little more
than a place for the men to eat and
sleep and it has absolutely no convent.
fences. With the completion of the new
building, bath rooms will be installed
and there will be hot and cold water
In every room In addition to this
there will be heating plant for heat
ing the entire station. Rooms will al
so be provided for proper care Of peo-
pie rescued by the members Of the
crew and there will be a place for the
medical care of the victims of dis
asters OH the lake.
One Of the best features in the plans
for improvements at the station is the
fact that a cottage is to be built for
the use of the keeper and his family.
For thirty years the keeper has been
forced to have his family at the sta
zion with the members Of the crew or
else rent a house somewhere near the
station.
The new plan provides that the cot
tage be elected on the hill facing the
street and this will make it possible for
the keeper to be in close call at all
times. The first season under Captain
Fountain which will close the frst of
Descember, has been q busy one and
this has brought the condition of the
Kenosha station prominently before
the board and for this reason the work
has been ordered started at once and
rushed to completion as rapidly as pos
Esible. Captain Fountain was busy to-
day looking over the deeds to the prop
erty in order to have the. proper lines
laid for the addition to the station.

Congregation Bnai Zedec Makes
Final Arrangements for Erec-
ton of a Temple
WILL START WORK THIS YEAR
Church Will be at the Corner of Third
and Market Streets and Will Cost
Ten Thousand Dollars
Plans Being Made

Kenosha is to have new temple of
worship within another year as at a
meeting of Congregation Bnai Zedek,
composed of the leading Jewish people
of the city, held on Sunday afternoon
it was decided to go ahead with the
building of temple at once and plans
are now being made for the building
with a view of starting work during
the coming month. The building will
be erected on the lot owned by the
congregation at the corner Of Market
and Third streets and it will cost in
the neighborhood of $4,000. In di-
mansions the building will be 80x50
and it will be of brick and as nearly
fire proof as possible. A portion of
the money for the construction Of the
building has already been raised
and it is expected that the remainder
needed will be raised before the com
pletion of the church. The new tenn
pie will be known as Temple Bnai
Zedek and it will be the first Jewish
house Of worship ever erected in Ke-
nosha county. Among the members of
the building committee in charge of
the erection of the temple are Adolph
Epstein L. Goldberg, Jacob Stern, Will
liam Gottlieb, M. Rosenblum and Louis
Sukof
/ The Jewish congregation in Kenosha
was organized several years ago with
a membership of about a dozen people,
but at the present time it has mem
bership Of more than sixty and con-
tains nearly all Of the well known
Jewish people in the city. In the last
few years the Jewish population of
Kenosha has been increased materially
and for years it has been necessary for
for these people to go to Chicago in
order to worship according to their
faith. At the present time there is
no rabbi in charge Of the work in Ke-
noska, but it is understood that man
will be secured at once to take charge
of the work during the building of the
temple. The site for the temple was
purchased three years ago and it is
entirely free of debt.
/ It is expected that the excavations
for the building will be started in No
vember and that the corner stone will
be laid before the end Of the present
year. It is planned to make the Tenn
pie one of the best in Wisconsin outside
of Milwaukee.
