city and it is pretty certain that they
will order lot of the alleys cleaned up
and the piling of debris in these alleys
discontinued. The Easements of these
closely looked into. The state officials
Will also make some excursions into
the resident districts of the city but in
other cities they nave not made 1t a
rule to invade private houses to make
examinations but have recommended
that this work be done by the members
of the local fire department. There
will be no imposition on the people by
swindlers and when the fremen go out
to make examinations they will have
the proper credentials with them and
will be in full uniform.
State Fire Marshall Purtell during
his stay in Kenosha took occasion to
reiterate his statement that he did not
believe that there was any danger to
property from the tanks OF the Stand
ard Oil company but he declared that
he believed that the ordinance sug-
gested to the common council now pend
ing before that body would do much to
make the city safer. He declared that
he knew of no law by which the tanks
of the OIL company could be forced out
of the city but ne stated that the city
ordinance would throw about them
every safe guard necessary.
People of the city have shown a will
ingness to cooperate with the state de-
partment in the inspection and it is
pretty certain that the work will re-
suit in such changes being made as to
make Kenosha one Of the best protected
cities in the state against fire.

One OF the surprising things in con-
nection with the visit of the railroad
commissioner to take testimony in the
lighting case is the lack of interest
shown in the hearings by the general
public The time and place of the hear
ing was we'll advertised but, instead of
the crowds expected by everybody who
has followed the case, there was hardly
anybody present the first day except
those Immediately interested.
This row over the construction OF
the city hall has served one good pur-
pose and that is to make every one in
the city take an interest in the build
ing. The examination of the principals
IN the controversy on Friday afternoon
did not disclose anything new in regard
to the charges filed with the council
but for all that the very fact that these
charges were filed should have the eff
feet of making the representatives of
the city very careful in passing any
Of The work. The floors on which com
plant has been made are right handy
and it seems to us that the best way to
settle tile matter so far as the city is
concerned, one way or another and con
clusively would be to have these floors
tested by experts to ascertain, whether
on not they have been put in exactly III
accordance with the plans and speci-
tieations called for in the contract. We
presume that analyses could be made to
ascertain absolutely what proportion of
each ingredient entered into their con
struction aud in such way that the
conclusions Of The experts could not be
disputed.

PATROLS FARM WITH A GUN.
Henry Smith Would Prevent the Des-
truction of His Hay Crop by Fires.


Henry Smith is one Of the wealthiest
bachelors Of the town Of Salem but at
that he is not opposed to military SER
vice and he declared to the Judge of
the municipal court on Monday that he
was patrolling his farm in Salem from
sunset until sunrise to prevent the des-
truction OF his grain by fire. He de-
clared that this was necessary in order
to protect his property against mis-
creants in the town of Salem. Some
time ago Smith had a stack Of hay
burned and Henry Hartnell now in the
county jail has admitted that he set
fire to the hay stack. Smith declared
that he has kept an armed watch over
his crops ever since that time. Smith
told his story to the Judge on account
of the fact that he had been drawn as
juror for the municipal court and on
this story he asked to be excused from
jury service. The Judge took his pc
tition under advisement and will render
decision at the opening of the term.

but there was no serious destruction
of property. The boys with the soap
were out in force and nearly every plate
glass window in the business district of
the city was smeared with soap and the
boys who wash the windows were kept
busy for hours today removing the soap
from the windows. The usual number

INCREASE IN LICENSES.
State Game Warden Reports $4,000
More Licenses This Year Than Last.

An increase of $4,000 in the number
of resident hunting and fishing licenses
issued In 1910 over the number issued in
1909 is predicted by Capt. G. II. Ricke-
man, head of the Wisconsin fish and
game department. nonresident L.
censes, too, will proportionately increase
said Warden 5Rickeman TODAY. Last
year the total number of resident Ii
eenses issued was 101, 1896; this year the
number will reach PROBABLY 10000.
During the past few days we have
been rushed, y said Mr.. Rlckeman,
Hwith demands by county clerks for
additional supplies of blanks and there
is every indication that my estimate of
% 900 additional licenses will be- ex-
ceeded. The condition is probably due
to the fact that game is more plentiful
than for several years, particularly in
the northern part of the state.''
Capt. Rickeman reports for the week
ending yesterday, the conviction of
forty-on violators of the fish and game
laws with fines and penalties amount
ing to $1,111.69.
Capt. Rlckeman has received from
the state civil service commission a GER
tifcate of eligiblcs for appointment to
the service. Mr.. Rickenan soon will
make number of special temporary ap-
pointments.

Ashland avenue proved something of
a parada for the Halloween crowds in
the early hours of the morning and the
broken bricks which had been left by
the street PAYERS along the avenue prov
ed an excellent substitute for the time
honorcd cabbage stumps and these were
heaved against the doors of sleeping
residents of the avenues until early
morning. In some parts of the city
there were children parties and the boys
armed with pumpkin facesn and the
girls dressed as ghosts paraded about
tie streets and made visits to their
friends. Many pleasant dancing parties
took place in celebration of the even
ing and all portions of the city saw
enough of the fun to make it impos-
sible for them to forget the passing of
the annual event.
Special services were held in many
of the churches of the city this morn
ing in celebration of All Saints Day.
One or two cases are reported of
where the cement walks laid on Mon
day were badly damaged by Hallowe ZEN
jOkers and if the people who had a
hand in this work can be located it is
probable that they will be arrested and
forced to pay for the damage done. The
police department for the first time in
years handled the Hallowe EN- crowds
without special men being placed on the
force and many of the officers report
that they did not have a single call
during the evening to suppress the mer-
ry rioters.

SHIPS FIRST BODY
Remains of Bertelsen Sent to
Madison to Be, Used for
Scientific Purposes
FRIENDS FAIL TO CLAIM BODY

kenosha county made it's first contri-
button to the work of scientific research
at the University Of Wisconsin this
morning when County Agent R. H.
Jones shipped to DR.. G. V. Bardeen at
Madison the remains of Christian Ber-
telsen former Kenosha man who died
Monday morning at the State Asylum
for the insane at Racine. The State
University officials had made demand
upon the county agent for the body,
holding that under the law, if the rela-
tives of the man could not be located
it must be turned over to the anatom-
ical laboratory Of the University. Coun.
ty Agent Jones on Monday made every
effort to find some one who was in
terested in the burial of Bertelsen but
no one was found and he then notified
the University authorities to take the
body Under the state law the body
will not be placed on the dissecting table
at once but it will be held at the labor
atory for term of six months in order
to give the relatives Of Bertelsen
chance to claim the remains and pro
vide for a proper burial Of them. If
at the end Of the six months no claim
for the remains is made they will be
turned over to the University students
for scientific research.
Under the law the University pays
all the expenses of preparing the re-
mains and even provided a case in
which they were shipped to Madison.
So far as can be learned the dead man
has no relatives in Wisconsin.

While the Wisconsin fishermen may
not succeed in having federal fish and
game law passed covering all of the
great lakes they should receive every
assistance from the legislature Of this
state in their efforts to have uniform
laws passed by all of the states border
ing on the great lakes which shall make
the closed season the same for all. 1t
is manifestly unjust that the men en-
gagged in this industry In Wisconsin
should be prevented from carrying on
their business for a time when the
men engaged in the same line in other
states bordering on the lake can fish
during all seasons without any penalty.
There should be the same law for all
men in the business and if closed
season is to be enforced in this state
there should be a closed season every
where else. This matter will undoubt-
eddy be brought up at the next session
of the Legislature and unless there is
a disposition shown by the legislatures
of other states to enact as stringent
laws tor a closed season as are now in
force in Wiconsin the lawmakers of
this state would do well to consider
the advisability of modifying the pres
ent laws in favor Of the Wisconsin fish
ermen so that they will have a fair
chance with their competitors in other
states until such time as these other
states see the necessity of enforcing a
closed season for the preservation of the
fish supply.

The Northwestern Railway company
has made a demand upon the local police
department for the arrest of people who
trespass on the yards of the company in
Kenosha. 1t is declared that in the past
few weeks scores of petty thefts have
been committed by these people and
that the company is willing to appear
and prosecute all of the people seen
taking things from the yards as tres
Fassers. In most eases the thefts have
consisted of small amounts Nof coal or

fear that they will be killed by the

have asked for the police to cause their

Sugar Production.

One of the most important products
of the world is sugar, of which there
was manufactured in 1909, 14,71O,OOO
tons, and of this enormous output
1886, 900 tons were made of cane and
6,775, 900 tons were produced from
beets. The manufacture of sugar from
cane was first introduced into the
United States from southern Europe
and about 1890 it's production com
menced in Louisiana, where congenial
soil and climate were found for the
propagation of the cane. The original
processes were clumsy and more or less
crude, but an excellent article of sugar
was produced, although in limited guam
titles. Improvements were made IN the
process, however, and by scientific
means the quality of the sugar was
greatly improved says Philadelphia
Press.
1t has been an important article of
commerce, but Cuba and Java produced
the greatest quantity of cane sugar.
owing to the fertility of the soil and
the salubrity of the climate, n blu
little was raised, comparatively speak
ing, by the rest of the world. Abou
l747, however, an astonishing state
, ment was made to the Berlin Academy
of Sciences by Herr Margrave, who an
nouneed that sugar could be produced
from beets, and prophesied that TIM
would become the basis of a great IN
dustry, and about 1897 Archard SOLVED
> the problem of it's production and
number of beet sugar factories were es
T tablished, and from this small begin
ming it grew, until last year the Unite
f States produced Of beet sugar alon
over $4,000 tons, while the productlo

: 122O.O 900 tons, of which Louisiana pre-
= duced $4,000 tons, Porto Rico 245,OO
u toms. Hawaii 5000 tons and the Pm
i%ppines 100000 tons. Germany, Au
