TWO MONTHS MORE NEEDED
Board of Education May Decide
to Delay Opening of the New
Building Till the Opening of a
New School Year.

| 1t is just possible that the new
Columbus school which has been in
course of erection since some time last
summer viii not be opened during the
regular present school year as delays
in the arrival of materials and delays
in the competition of the heating plant
of the school have been so numerous
that it is beginning to look as if the
building will not be ready to be turn
ed over to the board before the first
of April. It had been expected that
the building would be ready for use
by this time and the board of educa-
tion at its last regular meeting en-
ployed corps of teachers to take
charge of the various rooms of the
building.
One of the contractors in speaking
of the matter on Wednesday said, "We
have had car load Of finishing ma
terial for the new school on the road
for three weeks and can get no trace
of it and in addition to this there is
lot of trouble in the installation of
the heating plant at the building and
lit is beginning to look as if the build
ing would not be ready to turn over
to the school board for two months
more.
When the contract for the building
of the school was let no time limit
for its completion was set and there
are no penalties to be collected for the
wait that the board is having for the
new building. Some of the members
of the board of education seem to
think that if the building is mot to
be ready until the middle of April
it would be just as well to delay the
opening of it until the middle of the
new school year.
The opening of the new building will
require lot of changing in the school
districts and it is probable that the
children could struggle along as they
are until the end of the year. The
opening of the new business depart
ment of the high school is also being
delayed by the fact that the Columbus
school is not completed but the school
board has not as yet secured a man
to have charge of that department and
| it is probable that it would be able
to secure much better material to Sc
lect from during the summer months
than at this time when most all teach
ers of real value are under contract.

Y. NJ. G. A. Athletes to Meet
for State Championship
in Racine
KENOSHA HAS STRONG TEAM

Athletes of the Kenosha Young
Men s Christian Association have been
notified that big athletic meet to de-
eide the state championship Of the Y.
M. c. A will be held in Racine early
in March and it is expected that teams
from all the leading cities in the state
will compete. Not satisfied with the
meet held in connection with the re
cent Y M. G.. A. convention here the
Citations got together in Kenosha and
arranged for second meet. At the
Kenosha meet only one of the athletes
of the Milwaukee association was able
to enter the contest and Director Min
ter of the Milwaukee association was
a leader in the suggestion that another
meet be held. The team of the Ke-
nosha association which finished second
in the meet here last week has already
gone into training for the Racine meet
and it is thought that these athletes
will be able to give,a good account of
themselves. Even if the athletes of
the other cities in the state fail to
respond to the invitation it is certain
that Kenosha and Milwaukee will send
teams to Racine to make an effort to
wrest the championship from the Ra-
cine team. If Hueffner should decide
not to contest in the new meet Racine
would have little chance of winning,
but there is little reason to believe
that Hueffner will be out of the con-
test. The rivalry between the three
associations has been decidedly spirit
ed for the past three or four years and
in every meet the Racine, Milwaukee
and Kenosha associations have large
ly divided the honors. The Kenosha
athletes are strong in the jumping and
sprinting contests and it is expected
that they will score many points in
these events. In connection with the
athletic meet it is planned to hold a
gymnastic exhibition and the points
scored in this will be counted in MAX
ing up the final score of the meet.

TO NAME COMMISSION
Zion City Men to be Asked to Look
After Interests in Zion Estate

According to present plans the Zion
City receivership will be bought to
close by April l and possibly a little
sooner. Receiver Gus D. Thomas will
issue what will probably be his last
report to the federal court and the in
vestors within about ten days after
January 81, for the period ending on
that date. He may issue a report af-
ter the close of the receivership sum-
ming up the entire period Of the re-
ownership At the conclusion of the
receivership the estate of Zion will be
turned over to a board of trustees
consisting of seven men, three of whom
are to be appointed by Judge Lands,
three by the Zion investors and one
by the other six. This arrangement
is in accordance with what is known
as the reorganization plan which was
voted upon and agreed to by a ma
jority of the investors. 1t is the
only plan for the final settlement of
the estate which can be carried into
effect without resorting to vote of
all of the investors again.

TO ORGANIZE ON SATURDAY
Committee in Charge Of Memorial TO
Soldiers to Organize Tomorrow

The members Of the commission
which will have charge of the erection
of permanent memorial to the
soldiers and sailors of Kenosha county
who served in the war of the rebellion
will meet at the county building on
Saturday afternoon for organization.
The members of the commission have
talked informally of the plans for the
work of the commission and it is
understood that William II. Harrison
of Randall will be elected as president
of the commission and f. IT. Lyman,
secretary. The work of collecting
the data to be placed on the bronze
tablets will be started at once and it
is expected that much of this data will
be ready for the tablets by the early
part of the summer. Mr.. Lyman has
already started some of the work and
there is no doubt but that the matter
when ready to be set up in the court
house will be of greatest interest.

GAINED FAME WITH BECKER
Racine Candidate has Opened Head
quarters in Milwaukee and Promises
TO Fight With Vigor in All Parts
Of the State From Now On.

It was announced this afternoon that
William ~ Hooker of Milwaukee, had
been named as campaign manager of
Captain William H. Lewis of Racine.
Republican candidate for governor Of
Wisconsin. Surprise was manifested in
local political circles when this be-
came known, and it will be received
with greater surprise throughout the
state.
Few men are better known in Wis
cousin than William F. Hooker. He
is a newspaper man of prominence,
having followed journalism in the
state for thirty odd years. AS cor
respondent of the Milwaukee Sentinel
he became a resident Of Racine in 1882
and he has held all of the positions in
the Office of the Sentinel at Milwau-
kee.
When Sherbie Becker became a can
didate for mayor of Milwaukee, Mr.
Hooker was selected as his manager
and organized the strongest campaign
organization ever accomplished in that
city, there being 226 districts and the
result was that David Rose the Demo
cratic candidate for mayor, was de-
feated, even the big Polish Democratic
ward going for Becker.
Mr.. Hooker became the private sec
rotary of Mayor Becker and was his
main adviser. Later he was appoint
ed tax commissioner of Milwaukee and
he made one of the most efficient that
city ever had.
Since retiring as commissioner he
has been engaged in writing history
of Milwaukee, sections of which have
appeared in the Free Press. He is
probably as well posted on politics of
this state as any other man that could
be found and will make the opponents
of Captain Lewis know that they have
been in the race.
Captain VIM. M Lewis said today
that ne would go to Milwaukee early
next week, to meet Mr.. Hooker and
open his headquarters. He has not
yet decided just where they will be
located, but if satisfactory arrange
ments can be made, the Plankinton
house or some Office building in the
neighborhood of that hotel will be
used
81 intend,'' said Captain Lewis,
" TO make dash right into this thing.
for there is lots of work ahead for a
new man in the political game. 1t
will take lots of time and a great deal
of detail work to perfect an organiza-
tion, and l propose to have one that
the people will be interested in and
which they will respect"

Railway Co. Unable to Sup
ply Cars for Handling Out
putof Kenosha Factories
FINISHED PRODUCTS Pile UP
Railway Companies Moving Cars as
Rapidly as Possible but Demands
Of Shippers Can Not be Supplied
by Companies

The Northwestern Railway Company
is unable to furnish cars to manufact-
urers in which to ship goods and as a
result the manufacturers are piling up
shipments in every available place
that can be found in the factory build
ings. Lumber, iron and other ma
terials which have been piled in fac
tory buildings now are being piled out
side to make room for manufactured
stock, which is ready for shipment.
This condition is found in nearly
every factory in Kenosha and manu-
facturers declare that never in their
careers have car shipments been so
tied up as they have during the past
few weeks. Railroad officials are un-
able to state when they will be able
to supply the demand for freight cars.
Officials of the st. Paul road state that
they have 700 trains which would
number about $4,000 cars to move but
the road is short of locomotives. The
same situation falls to the Northwest
ern road. At large shipping points
and at railroad functions are hund-
reds of loaded cars which cannot be
moved. At Corliss every track and
siding, except the main track is filed
with cars loaded with freight. Pas
senger train crews find it impossible
to cut out cars and leave them at Cor
liss. Freight cars on sidings are pull
ed out one at time because of the
tracks being covered with snow and
ice. The yardmen and hrakemen are
compelled to shovel off the tracks be-
fore a car can be moved
Local manufacturers who make their
shipments in large cars known as
furniture cars are unable to obtain
them and they gladly accept any siz-
ed car put near the shipping rooms.
Foreign cars, those owned by other
railroads, are being loaded here with
shipments for the Pacific slope and the
car accountants of these foreign roads
will be unable to obtain trace of these
cars for several weeks.

Representative Weisse, the lone

SEEK MISSING MAN
Police Asked to Make An Effort to
Find Some Trace of j. H. Manning

Chief of Police o Hare has received
letter from the police of Milwaukee
asking that he make an effort to find
some trace of James H. Manning, a
Milwaukee man who is supposed to be
in Kenosha. Manning disappeared
from Milwaukee many weeks ago and
since that time his relatives have been
making an effort to get some line on
him. Recently they learned that
Manning had come to Kenosha. The
mother of Manning is very i'll and it
is for this reason that the police are
seeking to locate him, AS yet the
Kenosha officers have not been able
to find any trace of Manning.

A WILD GOOSE CHASE
Police and Life Savers Look in Vain
for sFloater' Seen in Lake


Captain Fountain and members OF
the Kenosha Life Saving Crew as well
as the police officers of the city had
wild goose chase on Wednesday af-
ternoon when they were sent out into
the lake to look for an alleged floating
body. The ''body' was found to be
a mass of ice partially covered with
mud, but its form was strangely like
that of human being. For several
hours Wednesday afternoon Chief
o Hare and the men at the police of
fee kept receiving messages that
body was floating in the lake just off
the entrance to the harbor and these
reports became so insistent that the
chief finally called upon Captain
Fountain to make an investigation.
With a great deal of trouble the cap
tain and one of the police officers man
aged to get out of the harbor in a
small boat and they rowed about until
they found what was alleged to be the
body. The floating ice was not towed
into the harbor but Captain Fountain
and the officer are both convinced that
this slush ice was the object taken for
the foater. Men at the Simmons fac
tory watched the, floating body for
some time and they were convinced
that it was the body of a man. Think
ing possible that it might be the body
of Jorgen Fredson who disappeared
more than two weeks ago the examina-
ton was ordered by the police.
