FINDS DIARIES BAD
Man Investigating Chicago Milk Supply

Approximately one-half of the

With the above statement DR.. G. NJ.

the milk question in general He sal
that last November and December b
made a personal investigation of tb
milk supply of Chicago and at thS
time he had found it bad.

DR.. Whitaker declared that in co,

his investigation.
"Of those we visited, " he said, i"
per cent I had to rate below 80 in
scale Of marking and the average dai
farm-that is making an average fro
those investigated-can only be mar

opinion, any dairy falling below 40 P

So from my investigations believe tn
nearly so per cent of the dairi

STARK GOES TO CHICAGO
Former Kenosha Minister is Called to
Church With Membership of 1000

The Rev. G. K. Stark, formerly pas
tor of the Swedish Lutheran church in
this city has resigned the passionate of
the Swedish Lutheran church in Evans
ton to become the pastor of the SWe-
dish Lutheran Elm church Of Chica-
go. The church is one of the largest
churches of the denomination in the
middle states and it has membership
of more than one thousand. The ad-
vance Of Rev. aMr. Stark in his de-
nomination has been very rapid. He
came to Kenosha as missionary pastor
a little over ten years ago and it was
largely through his efforts that the Ke-
nosha church was built. He remained
in Kenosha until after the society here
was self sustaining and then accepted
call to the Swedish Lutheran church
at Evanston which church he served
until he accepted the call to Chicago.
Mr.. Stark is now one of the best
known Swedish ministers in the
country.

The law under which members of the
common council are forbidden to hold
any other positions under the control
of that body does not appear to admit
of any other construction than that
which appears on it's face and it is
difficult to see how even a lawyer paid
to find flaws in it could get around it's
plain intent The law states that
emo member of any city council, town,
village or county board shall during
the term for which he is elected be
appointed or elected to any office OF
position which has been created by, or
the election or appointment to which
is vested in such city council, or such
town, village or county board +" and it
is under this law that the right of
Alderman Higley to serve as a mem
Der of the board of water commission
ers is being question. Inasmuch as
the water commissioners are elected by
the council it would appear that the
law fits this case exactly and that Al
derman Higley has not the slightest
right to sit as a water commissioner,
but what view of the situation will be
taken by the alderman himself or his
friends on the council remains to be
seen. Some of the members of the
council, and among them amen whose
word is said to be law in that body,
have announced their intention of pay
ing not the slightest attention to this
law just as they have ignored other
laws which are supposed. to be in force
in this state whenever it suited their
convenience and of retaining Alderman
Higley in this position where he can
be useful to them in the future, but
it is certain that if this law is upheld
by the courts, and there is every rea-
son to believe that it would be, that
any official acts of the board Of water
commissioners in which the alderman
takes part can be called into question
at any time and that any business in
which he participated would not be
valid. The outcome Of the eontro-
yersy will be watched with a great deal
Of interest by the people Of the city.

Weather Bureau Springs a
Surprise ON All of the
Local Forecasters"
CITIES NAMES DO NOT APPEAR

'FThe Oldest inhabitant'' will not
recognize the weather map issued by
the Milwaukee weather bureau when
he sees it today.
Changes made for the convenience of
newspapers that print reproductions of
the map, according to Mai. Ell. B. Her
sey, have been made in the style of
the map. Instead of the familiar tan
colored background, it will hereafter
have background of blue. This is
the change which will first strike the
eye.
Next to this the most noticeable de-
parture will be the absence of the
names of cities. On the old style of
map the name of every city in the
United States, from which weather
reports are received, as well as some
in southwestern Canada, were printed.
The temperature of the point was print
ed beside it's name.
On the new map the names of cities
are entirely missing. At the point on
the map where the names of the city
would be printed is printed it's tempera-
ture at the universal time of taking OBJ
seTvations, which is o'clock, seventy
fifth meridian time, the amount of rain
fall during the last twenty-four hours,
if any, and the velocity of the wind at
observation time if it is more than
ten miles an hour
1t is this feature of the new map
that will be appreciated by the news
papers which reproduce the maps.
The names of SO many cities are apt to
blur a small reproduction of the map,
Several other minor changes in the
style have been made.

Mrs. David R. !Fogwell Dies

Mrs. Ella Beatrice FogweI, wife of

matrons of the city, died at her home

The sinking of the steamer Frank H.
Goodyear in Lake Huron in which two
Kenosha sailors are believed to have
persisted is only one of series of ac-
cidents which have marked every sea-
son on the great lakes since this type
of vessels first made it's appearance in
the ore carrying trade. These YES
sells are practically nothing more than
large steel troughs propelled by ma
chinery and in them every considera-
ton of safety has been sacrificed to
Carrying capacity. There are no col
Hsion bulkheads or any safely devices
OF any kind and when anything hap
pens to make breach in the outer
walls they sink like stone. Human
life is clancy at any kind of trade and
the occupation of sailor is particu-
larly hazardous, but since this type of
vessel seems destined to supercede
every other on the lakes it is time that
the builders and owners of these yes
sells were required to give their men
the same amount of protection that is
accorded the sailors in other waters.
1t is true that owners will always be
able to find men to run their vessels
no matter how unsafe they are but
that IS no reason why the sailors on
the great lakes should be required to
run risks that are. not expected of
other men in the same occupation else
where. The sailors on the great lakes
should be wiling and evidently are to
take the ordinary risks of the high seas
but the difference in economy of opera
ton between few collision bulkheads
which would at least give the men time
to take to the small boats and none
at all should not be permitted to out
weigh the value of human life.

A DOLLAR AND COSTS
Tony Camacha Sent to Jail for Twenty
Days in Default of Payment

Tony Camacha, charged with using
abusive language to his wife, was
brought before Judge Randall in the
municipal court this morning and given
a fine of one dollar and costs or twenty
days in Jail. The wife made the com
plant and contrary to the usual Gus
tom in such cases refused to pay the
fine of her husband and the man was
returned to Jail pending the result of
an effort to raise the money for his
fine among his own friends. Camacha
works for the city on one Of the street
cleaning gangs and he will probably be
released before night The Judge was
easy on the man on account of the fact
that he has several small children to
support, but as he has appeared in
court before he was warned that any
further trouble between himself and
wife would be followed by a severe
sentence.

DEATH DUE TO HEART DISEASE

William o. Musser, Office manager
and bookkeeper for the Cooper Under
wear Company and widely known
among manufacturers of the city, died
at his home I'll Prairie avenue just
after four O'Clock Thursday afternoon.
Death came very suddenly and was
due to an attack Of heart disease. Mr..
Musser had been at work at his desk
in the office of the underwear company
half an hour before the final sum-
mons came. In the three years that
he had been in the office of the COM
pany he had never complained of i'll
ness and had never lost an hour from
his work. He had eaten his dinner
with his family but when he returned
to the office he complained Of bad pains
in his chest and at the suggestion Of
some of the other men in the office a
carriage was called and he was taken
to his home a short distance from the
plant. Mr.. Musser walked from the
carriage to the house and spoke to his
wife telling her that he was i'll. DR..
Robinson was hurriedly called to the
house but Mr.. Musser died about the
time the doctor arrived.
William Otis Musser was in his fifty
eighth year and he had been an active
business man for many years. He was
a native of Ohio and was born in that
state June %, 1852. He was a son
of David Musser who survives him and
who until a short time ago made his
home with his son in Kenosha. Mr..
Musser was educated in the schools Of
Ohio and when a young man removed
to the west.
For several years he was in the bank
ing business at Marshall, Mimi, but
he sold out his interests in the bank
at Marshall three years ago and came
to Kenosha to take charge of the Of
flee of the Cooper Underwear Company
and become the head bookkeeper for
the company. He was an expert book
keeper and manager and his death
came as a great shock to the man with
whom he had been employed in the
Office of the company.
Mr.. Musser is survived by his widow
and one son, Roscoe Musser, who is
now student in the Kenosha High
School

Ii it is true as has been contended
time and again before the school board
when the question of fixing teachers
salaries has been up for consideration,
that the teachers in the Kenosha
schools are not 50 well paid as those
occupying similar positions in other
places then it must be that places in
our schools are regarded as stepping
stones to better things and are attrac-
tive on that account for there has new
cr been any dearth of applicants for
any of the higher positions in the
schools and at the present time the
teachers committee of the board is
literally swamped with applications
for the two vacancies in the high
school If the board does not sue
ceed in filing the positions acceptably
it will be simply case of mistake
in Judgment and not from any lack of
material to choose from.
