plenty OF fertilizer and, strange to say,
the most Of That which comes from the

The Foundation of SOIOmOn's Temple
The southeastern corner OF the walls OF
Jerusalem and, indeed, a large portion OF
the eastern walls are a part OF the plateau
upon which Solomon's temple once stood.
In almost the middle of the eastern side
of the temple is what Is known as the
golden gate. IL has been walled up and
the Mohammedans say IL viii not be
opened until the judgment day. A little
further on, at the corner OF the temple,
is 81. stephens gate, which some suppose
was the place where st. Stephen was
stoned. Another legend is that the place
of the stoning was near the GrottO OF
jeremiah. in Solomon's quarries, farther
along around the walls. The tradition Ia
that Stephen was here brought to the
brow OF the hill and thrown over a preci-
pice. His hands were tied and after fall.
ing heavy blocks OF stone were rolled
down upon him from the brow Of the hill.
The walls near the temple are among
the first that were built They are IN fine
condition today, parts OF them having been
recently repaired. The stones are Of bright
yellow limestone laid IN white mortar.
Those at the bottom, which were laid up
by Solomon, are OF enormous size, one
being about fifty feet long and about fif-
teen feet high and evidently cut from the
bed rock upon which the wall stands
Right at the temple the walls rise al
most precipitously from the valley OF
Jehosophat and l judge they are 100 feet
high. The walls are in excellent condition
throughout The towers are almost per-
feet and, although the vegetation is grow
ing IN the cracks, the most OF the wall
looks comparatively new.

The pillar of Judgment.

A curious feature Of the walls Of Jeru-
salem Is a stone block as big around as
a flour barrel which extends out from
that part above which the temple stands
70 a distance OF perhaps fifteen feet. This
block or pillar hangs right over the rocky
valley of Jehosphat with the Mount OF
Olives rising up its opposite side. Ac-
cording 20 the belief Of the Mohammsdans,
It will be upon this pillar that Mahomet
will sit at the day OF judgment, and Christ
will have His seat on the opposite side
OF the valley. There win be a fine wire
stretched from the pillar across TO the
mountain. and upon this wire all mankind
must walk on its way to eternity. As the
people OF the various religions go those
who believe in Mohammedanism will be
upheld by the angels and viii reach safely
the opposite side. whence they will ascend
into heaven. The others will drop down
into the valley and perish.
-
There are cemeteries for both the Jews
and Aiohammedans not far from the tenn
pl9 outside the walls. The Mohammedan
cemetery hugs the walls above the temple.
Ii Is Just opposite the Garden Of Geth-
semane and Il includes also the Place OF
the Skull where General Gordon has To-
Gated the site OF Calvary. This side Il
now surrounded by wall and fence, and
Christians are not permitted 70 enter H.
Within II is the grotto where jeremiah IL

The action to be taken by the county
treasurer in regard to paying over the
one third of the fines collected for VIC
lations of the game laws now held by
the county to the state treasury in com
pliance with the decision recently rem.
dered by the attorneys will depend
wholly on the opinion Of the district
attorney. Should he decide that the
county has no chance to retain this
money the treasurer will have to give
it up, but if he declares that the
county has a case the treasurer will
hold Oh to the county's share of the
fines until the state gets a decision
from the courts on the ruling of the
attorney general. Should it be neces-
sary other counties in the state will
doubtless join with this county in fight
ing the case, for it was clearly the in
tention of the trainers of the law to
give the counties third of the fines.

In their endeavors to hang on to a
good thing and to persuade the people
of Racine not to go in for a municipal
water company some of the parties in
terested, through their newspapers, are
endeavoring to run down the Kenosha
water company and to belittle its sue
cess. They would show more wisdom
in avoiding the subject Of the Kenosha
plant altogether when discussing MUM
cipal ownership for the Kenosha plant
is about the only one in the country
that can show an unqualified success
right from the start and some one may
hand them bunch Of figures showing
what big profits the people of the city
have made out of it. That is not say
ing that a similar plan would pay divi-
dends anywhere else under municipal
control, either, for Kenosha has been
exceptionally fortunate in that the
politicians and grafters have never
been able to get control of the local
plant and it has been operated in a
businesslike manner solely for the bene-
fit of the people. When they do this
plant will likely become an argu-
ment against municipal ownership like
so many others, but at present it makes
the strongest showing for municipal
ownership there is in the country.

Olaf Johnson Dies at His
Home Under Unusual Cir
cumstances Sunday
WAS ILL BUT A FEW HOURS

Olaf Johnson, aged 33 years, died
very suddenly at his home 588 Crate
street at an early hour Sunday morning
after an illness from acute Indigestion.
The deceased was machinist employed

ate his supper and after supper he was
attacked with indigestion and believing
that the attack was simply an ordinary
attack he took some simple home RENE
dies and retired for the night. Just
after midnight he collapsed and physi-
clan was called but the patient died
before the physician arrived. DR..
Palm who was called to the house di-
rected that the coroner be called to in
vestigate the death. After an exami-
hd6IOII VI CuC IHGtllDO1o VI bhS Ao'HiAAJ VI

the cause of the death of the man as
acute indigestion.

years and had been employed at the
plants of the Thomas B. Jeffrey Com

MAY OPPOSE JAIL
New Opposition springing UP to the
Rebuilding Of the Old Jail Building

The question of the remodeling of
the Kenosha county Jail is still liable
to bring an argument before the coun-
ty board when it meets for its special
session next month as some of the mem
bers of the board who opposed the
plans are looking up facts and figures
in regard to the number of prisoners
cared for at the Jail and some of these
men declare that there is not any de-
mand for so large an addition to the
jail. They assert that the present
jail is large enough and to double the
size of it would entail heavy expense
to the county which at this time is I'M
necessary. The plan for remodeling
provides for the addition of cells so
as to bring the total number of cells
up to thirty. This would give Keno
sha county one of the largest jails in
Wisconsin. The contractors are now
preparing their revised bids for the
work and they will be opened at the
adjourned meeting of the board on
February 10th.

UT APPEALS TO NAVY TO HONOR JURISTS
Attorneys Asked to Contrib
ute to Fund to Raise Monu-
ments to Former Judges
FUND OF $4,000 TO Be RAISED

All the members of the Kenosha
County Bar were today asked to aid
in the raising of fund to be used in
erecting suitable monuments to the
memory of Chief Justice Luther S.
Dixon and Chief Justice Edward G.
Ryan, formerly of the Wisconsin SUI
preme Court The following letter
from James G. Flanders, president of
the State Bar Association fully ex
plains the plan. 1t follows:
milwaukee, Wis, JAN Is, 1910.
To the Members of the Bar of the State
of Wisconsin:
Attention has very recently been
called to the fact that the grave of the
late Chief Justice Luther S. Dixon in
the cemetery at Madison, and the grave
of the late Chief Justice Edward G.
Ryan, in Forest Home cemetery at Mill
waukee, are not marked by any stone
nor honored with any monument.
1t is believed that the members of
the bar of the State of Wisconsin will
consider it a privilege to provide
suitable monument for each of these
great jurists, whose able and distin-
guished careers brought honor to the
state and enriched the judicial history
of our country. The subjoined COM
mittee has therefore been appointed to
take this matter in charge. The COM
mittee estimates that approximately
$4,000 will be required to do what is
needed in an appropriate but not ex-
trvagant manner, and it addresses it
self to every lawyer in the state to
make contribution to the fund In
order that the contributions may be
general it is suggested that each be
limited to a sum ranging from one dol
lar to ten dollars.
1t is desirable that the fund be rails
ed quickly and it is therefore request
ed that each donor send his own contri-
button at once to John B. Sanborn,
treasurer of the State Bar Association,
Madison, Wisconsin, who has consent
ed to act as treasurer of this fund.

Unless there is a change of plans
there will be DO special ceremonies to
mark the dedication Of the new post
office, but there will be considerable
rejoicing among the business men and
merchants of the city for all that and
it goes without saying that all OF the
employees of the Office will be more
than glad to get somewhere where they
will not be hampered for lack Of room
The postofice force has done remark
ably well considering the conditions
under which they have been obliged to
work but the business of the Office has
increased so in the last two or three
years that it is getting to the point
where it is simply impossible to handle
it as it should be handled in the
present quarters.

ANNUAL REPORT OUT
Sheriffs Report for Year 'O9
Shows That All Records of
Co. Have Been Broken
MANY TO PENAL INSTITUTIONS

Sheriff William H. Gunter has made
out his annual report of the business
done by the sheriff s Office during the
year just closed and the report showed
that the business was the largest in the
history Of the office During the year
1,072 prisoners were booked at the jail,
the total being 172 larger than in any
preceding year. In addition to this
number several hundred men and ten
women were taken care of in the tramp
room, but no charges were booked
against these people. No absolute
record is kept of the number taken
care Of in the tramp room.
The report shows that Kenosha has
made large contribution to the state
penal institutions during the year.
Eighteen prisoners were taken from
KenoSha to the state prison at Waupun,
three of the number going up for terms
of ten years or over and one of them,
John Bradley, went up for life.
-Four prisoners were taken to the
state reformatory at Green Bay and
five to the reform school for boys at
Waukesha. One prisoner was sent to
the home for the feeble minded at
Chippewa Falls In addition to this
large number committed to the penal
institutions of the state all records
have been broken in the number of
insane cases and during the year seven
teen people were committed to the
state hospitals for the insane at Win
nebago and Mendoza.
An examination of the report shows
that the number of city prisoners was
just about the same as the number ar
rested on state warrants.
At the present time there are but
eleven prisoners in the county jail.
Two of these are serving jail sentences
of sixty days and eight are>awaiting
trial in the municipal or circuit courts.
1t is thought that all of these cases
will be disposed of by the end of
February.
The county jail has handled more pri-
soners than ever before but at that
there has been no great crowding of
the Jail as the municipal court has
made it possible to dispose of these
cases more speedily than in previous
years.

The number of aliens admitted to
the country in 1909-including some
who had previously been here and gone
home-again crossed the million mark
The total was not much smaller than
in the record years 1906 and 1907, and
much larger than in 1908. AS in the
former years, those from eastern and
southern Europe predominated.
Meanwhile, the outgo of aliens was
only about half as large as in the year
before, Total immigrants since 1920
now almost reaches the respectable
figure of thirty millions, equal to about
one third the present population. But
the dream that the United States win
presently become "nation of foreig-
ners" is no nearer realization than it
was when q small shipload of English
pilgrims constituted the original 'Ena-
tive" stock
| Against this inflow, consisting mostly
of crude labor, stands the emigration
to Canada, during the year, of seventy
two thousand citizens of the United
States, who are said to have taken
with them an average of thousand dol
lars apiece-besides an industrial skill
and political experience that ought to
be worth considerably more than that,
per capita, to the country of their adop-
ton.
/ In this particular international trade
we take in the raw material and we
send out the finished product. Hence,
some economists view it with :apprehen-
sion. But to fabricate citizens, max
ing the less efficient more efficient,
ought to be what this country is for.
