DRIVEN FROM HOME
Catherine Quinn Allen Files Sen.
sationaI Suit for Divorce From
Her Husband, A. C. Allen
ALLEGES EXTREME CRUELTY

Alleging that she had been driven
from her home at midnight, clad only
in her night robes and forced to flee
bare footed to the home of neighbors
to seek protection for herself and her
two little children, Mrs Catherine
Quinn Allen has started an action in
the Circuit Court for an absolute di-
vorce from her husband Arthur G. AL
len, proprietor Of a barber shop on
East Market street. The complaint Of
the wife is one Of the most sensational
ever fled in the Circuit Court for Ke-
nosha county. Allen is now in the
county Jail serving sixty days SEN
tence as a punishment for the assault
made on his wife and it is probable
that the action will come to trial in
the Circuit Court before he has served
his long sentence. In her complaint,
which was drawn by Attorneys Randall
and Drury, Mrs. Allen alleges that she
was married to Allen on Feb. Is, 1904,
and that for some time her husband
had been treating her in a cruel and in
human manner. She declares that
Allen is a habitual drunkard and that
on several occasions he has threatened
to assault and even to kill her. The
climax Of these alleged cruel treat
ments, according to the complaint, was
reached on last Sunday night when
Allen dragged her from her bed by the
hair and so misused her that he forced
her out of the house and she was forced
to seek shelter from the night at the
home of a. neighbor.
Summons and complaint in the case
was served on Allen while he was in
court on Monday. Mrs. Allen demands
the custody of her two minor child
rem and asks that the husband be fore
ed to pay suitable alimony for their
maintenance.

TEN CENT STORE SOLD
Louis T. Walsh Sells His 'Gold Mime
on Wisconsin ST. to Buffalo Firm

The S. H, Knox Company of Buffalo,
New York, controlling five and ten
cent stores in all Of the larger cities
of the country has invaded Kenosha
as deal was completed on Tuesday by
which the company took over the bust
ness Of Louis I. Walsh on Wisconsin
street. The new company took charge
at once and the store is being over
hauled today. J. w. Carter is to be
the manager of the store for the new
owners. Mr.. Walsh has been in bust
ness for nearly four years and his bust
ness has been very profitable one.
The company takes over the seven year
lease on the building and purchases the
stock at inventory. Mr.. Walsh has
made no announcement Of his plans for
the future, but he will remain in Keno
sha for the present. He will not go
into the same business in Kenosha.
The new company controls 80 stores
Of this sort in the country and is re-
garded as one of the big syndicates in
this sort of business.

CITY GETS NOTICE
Mayor Formally Notified That County
Will Not Renew Lease of City Hall

The city has received formal notice
that the lease of the building now used
as City Hall will not be renewed af-
ter the end of another year. The
notice was served on Mayor Scholey
on Tuesday by County Clerk Jones and
the members of the Council are in a
quandary as to what will have to be
done in the matter. Under the notice
served the city will be forced to vacate
the building at the orders of the
County Board after another year and
while the chance of the county needing
the building is remote it is just pos
sible that the county Jail will want the
building and then the city would be
forced into finding other quarters or
building new City Hall. The County
Board had figured on using the building
as a home for Municipal Court, but it
looks now as if the chance of the es-
tablisment Of the court is decidedly
slim and the city may not be asked
to vacate at the end of the. present
lease.

No Effort Will Be Made To Secure
Establishment Of a Municipal
Court in kenosha Now
ATTORNEYS TOO BUSY NOW
Bill Would Have to be in the Hands
of the Legislature Tomorrow
and it is Impossible to
Get it Ready

Kenosha county will not have a
Municipal Court this year as the plan
to have bill for the establishment of
such court presented TO the State
Legislature now in session at Madison
has been practically abandoned. The
trouble was that while many Of the
attorneys and other officials Of the city
and county favored the establishment
of the new court there was no head to
the movement and it died a natural
death for lack of interest. One Of the
attorneys of the city got together all
of the material for the drawing Of the
dill, but he found that none of the
other attorneys was deeply interested
in the matter and as the time for the
introduction of new bills will close on
Wednesday it will be impossible
to have a. bill drawn for this session
and the matter will probably lay over
for two years or longer. Assemblyman
Wallace ingalls, Of Racine is one Of the
members Of the assembly committee on
judiciary and he has taken a great in
terest in the. movement to have the
court established here. It is just pos
sible that should bill be prepared
within the next few days Assemblyman
Ingalls, would be able to get it before
the assembly as a bill reported from
the committee.
There seems to be positively no op-
position to the bill this year, even the
court officials beneving that it would
be well to remove some of the cases
from the Circuit Court by the estab-
lishment Of new court. The mem
bers Of the County Board have ex-
pressed themselves as favorable to
some move along this line as have the
members of the Council, hut there
seems to be no organization to take
the lead in the matter. Copies Of the
oil which was presented to the legis-
lature two years ago have been placed
in the hands Of Assemblyman ingalls,
and he may decide to introduce this
bill on Wednesday and leave the mat
ter of making Of any changes in the
| proposed law in the hands Of the com
mittee later in the session. It is
thought that if this action is taken
the Kenosha. attorneys will get togeth-
er and make fight to secure it's pas
sage.
No bill has as yet been presented to
the legislature for the state regulation
of powder making plants and while
Assemblyman Curtiss has expressed a
willingness to introduce such bill
the people in Pleasant Prairie seem to
have lost their interest in the matter.
There has been no explosion at the
powder mill in more than year and
the people seem to have become re-
conciled to their danger and evidently
feel that a law for the regulation of
the plant under the direction of the
state is not needed at the present time

STATE TAXES PAID
City Treasurer Steinmetz Has Sent a
Check for Entire State Tax

There is at least one man in the
State of Wisconsin that the city can
look in the face with the assurance
that it does not owe him a. cent and
that is the state treasurer at Madison.
City Treasurer Steinmetz managed to
raise money enough to pay the state
taxes on time. There is still a little
money left in the treasurer bank
look. The next big haul on the fund
will be the pavement of the yrequisition
OF the School Board, but this and the
county taxes will probably be the last
two items settled. There is still ten
days in which the taxes may be paid
and there is certain to be a grand rush
between now and the closing day.

report to the School Board at the end
of each school year. All examinations
of pupils by the inspector shall be
made in the presence of the school prin-
cipal or one of the teachers
The adoption Of this code of health
was the most important matter before
the Board. An effort was made to
start something in regard to the matter
OF the ballot taken to select an archi-
tect for the new school, but the matter
fpassed of in talk and the minutes were
not amended. The secretary and presi-
dent of the Board were empowered to
enter into contract with Mr.. Gaastra
ass the architect Of the building, but
! it was distinctly understood that the
contract should show that the cost of
the completed building should not ex-
ceed $4,000. Mr.. Gaastra demurred
to this suggestion, declaring that the
Board had not selected heating plant
or the materials for the building and it
is just possible that the officials of
the Board will have trouble with the
making of the contract. The secre-
tary of the Board was instructed to
advertise for bids for the heating
plant for the school and these are to
be opened at special meeting of the
Board to be held a week from next
! Tuesday evening.
The. special committee named to look
into the question Of adding to the joint
school district a large tract of terri
tory in the Town of Pleasant Prairie
sent a report to the Board recommend
ing that the petition be laid on the
table for the present time Members
of the Town Board Of Pleasant Prairie
| do not seem to be overly anxious to
/ give up this territory and for this rea-
son the committee did not feel that it
was the place of the Board to seek to
! force the annexation.
! The Board decided to make a trial
of a gasoline engine for operating the
: fans in one of the school buildings of
! the city and the chairman will name
special committee to have charge of
, this test The bills for electricity
/! have been so high that it is thought
[ that the Board can save money by in
stalling engines in the schools.
| The old fight of Theleen and Ander-
son to collect extras claimed for the
! building of the addition to the Central
School came before the Board in the
way Of a summons in an action in the
Circuit Court and the Board decided
that the best way to settle the old
claim was to lay it before jury. The
claim of the contractors is 1886 and the
architect declares that the claim is
without foundation.
| The committee named at a former
meeting to investigate the charges
made by G. Landane against Principal
! e. f. Randall of the Balm School made
report completely generating Mr..
Randall and severely criticising Ian
dane for his having made the complaint
without himself fully investigating the
facts in the case. The evidence pre-
scented to the Board showed that the
action of Principal Randall was abso-
lutely proper in every way.
SuperintendentZ immers was given a
leave of absence to attend the annual
meeting of the national organization of
superintendent to be held in Chicago
the latter part Of this month and his
expenses will be paid by the Board.

London's Curious Landmark.

run against it through negligence, the
unshaken."
Some of the public uses to which Il
was put were as follows: % A mark
in the middle of the city within the
WALL (2) place for the payment by
debtors to their creditors at appointed
days and times afterwards made at
the font in st. Pauls and then at the
Royal Exchange); (3) a testimony to
the city's devotion to Christ, the
stone typifying its divine foundation.
1t was likely that upon this stone
all public proclamations were made to
the people; in support of which Stow
quotes the fact that the rebel Jack
Cade. who said he was Mortimer, earl
of March, rode up to London Stone,
upon which he struck his sword, say
ing: Now is Mortimer lord of this
city"
This was probably in accordance
with the tradition that the old Brit
ish kings took their oaths of accession
upon London Stone, and until they did
so were only kings presumptive.
Before the fire of London the stone
was much worn away, and, as it were,
but a stump remaining" 1t was then
cased over by Sir Christopher Wren,
builder of st. Paul's cathedral, with
a new stone, handsomesly wrought,
and followed so as to contaia the an
cient relic. -
In 1742 the stone was removed to
the north side near the curb, on ac-
count of its proving an obstruction in
its old position. Fifty-six years later.
when st. Swithin's church was about
to be repaired, the old landmark was
doomed to destruction, but happily,
owing to the Intervention of Thomas
Maiden, a printer of Sherbourne lane,
the parish off GERS consented to place
it against the south wall of the church.
An inscription let in the wall re.
cords that for more careful protection
and transmission to future ages, it was
better secured by the church wardens
in the year 1869"
The harmful effects of the London
atmosphere, greatly increased in re-
cent years, have left their mark upon
the old stone but there is still enough
of it left to insure London for many
years from entering on the downward
path. which is predicted to be it's fate
when the stone of Brutus shall dis.
appear"

FIND PREHISTORIC MONSTER
Fossil Coryphodon and Remains OF
Member of Predentata Family
Discovered in Montana.

New York.-Two dinosaurs have
been discovered in the fossil beds of
Montana by an expedition of the
American Museum of Natural History
led by Barnum Brown of the depart
ment of vertebrate paleontology. This
discovery gives to the museum the
distinction of naming two prehistoric
monsters the finding of which adds to
the already high scientific standing
of the institution.
Two expeditions were sent out early
last summer under the direction of the
head of the department, Prof. Henry
Fairfield Osborn, who is also president
of the museum. The first. which was
