Check That Cold

1t is a great mistake to let a cough Oh
cold run unchecked. Aside from the UNI
pleasantness and discomfort there Is a
real danger in the resulting irritation OF
the throat, lungs and bronchial organs,
which leaves them sore and very sus-
ceptible to pneumonia and consumption.
1t is not our purpose to recommend any
particular brand of patent cough medi-
cine. A simple, inexpensive and very ef-
fective remedy can easily be prepared at
home by mixing two ounces of Glycerine
and q half ounce OF Virgin Oil of Pine
compound pure with eight ounces OF
pure whisky. This formula is frequently
prescribed and Is highly recommended by
the Leach Chemical Co. of Cincinnati.
who prepare the genuine Virgin OIL Of
Pine compound pure for dispensing
through druggists
1t is claimed that a teaspoonful OF this
mixture four times day will break up
q cold in "a hours and cure any cough that
is durable.

SMALLPOX CASES
CAUSE UNEASINESS
ALL SCHOOL CHILDREN OF GADS-
DEN MAY HAVE TO SUBMIT TO
vACCINATION-sEV Wealth
Err is FELT

Gadsden, February 11.--(Special. Be
cause of the number of cases of small
pox recently developed on Sand Noun
tain the school authorities in this city
are contemplating an order for general
vaccination of the school children 1t
is probable that a meeting for this pur-
pose will be called in the next few days
and that a decree will go forth that
unless a child can show proof of sue
cessful vaccination or submits to vac
cination at the present time he will be
excluded from the public schools. Up to
this time there are only three cases re-
ported in the county. but the school board
deems it wise to take all possible precau-
ton.
Tomorrow the republicans of the coun-
ty will meet at Alfalfa to consider mat
4ers relative to the coming election of
county officers. At one time there was
considerable talk of a primary for the
selection of the party candidates. but this
has been abandoned and the meeting to-
morrow will undoubtedly arrange for
date for a convention, at which the NOM
nations are to be made. 1t is under
stood that a full ticket will be put out
and that spirited campaign is to be
waged for all the offices.
One of the severest storms of the sea-
son struck the city last night. Together
with strong wind there was a heavy
fall of rain beginning at midnight and
continuing through the day As re-
suit of the inclemency all outdoor work
has been abandoned, and there is little
likelihood that the men will return to
their task before the first of the week.
While on his way to doctors office
, this morning w. w. Walsh, inspector for
the city on the street paving. was seized
with hemorrhage and died before as

Engineer Hill to visit a physician and
was seized with a hemorrhage on the
street. He was taken into the office of

BREEN PRESENT At MEETING
Kenosha Team May be Seen in the
League Again Next Season but as
Yet no Decision in the Matter has
Been Definitely Reached.

The annual meeting of the Lake
Shore League was held at the Republi-
can House in Milwaukee Monday night
Seven of the teams of last season s
circuit were represented at the meet
ing and applications were received
from two more cities, making the larg-
est representation since the organiza-
ton of the league.
President Herzog announced that the
meeting would be an informal one and
that the election of officers would be
postponed until February IA, when the
circuit will be arranged and the Of
ficials for the season of 1910 chosen.
The latest applicant for admission
to the league and one that was looked
upon very favorably, is the crack
Kosciusky club, which was. one of the
strong factors in the Milwaukee City
League race last season.
Manager Frank Hopp, who represent
ed the Polish champions, was very en-
thusiastic over the proposition made
him by the league and will, in all prob
ability, secure a franchise at the next
meeting.
All managers present were of the
opinion that the high salaries which
have been detrimental to the league
in the past must be reduced and that
reasonable salary limit must be adopt
ed in order to make financial sue
cess of baseball in the various cities.
Those in attendance at the meeting
were: President J. F. Herzog Of Mani
towoc; P. N. Handle, of Sheboygan
John Kaiser, Jr., of Port Washington;
Peter Breen, of Kenosha; Edward Hill
ker, of Racine; Aid. Frank Hopp and
w. F. Steinel of Milwaukee. The Me-
nasha, Kaukauna and Waukesha teams
were represented by proxy.
It is by no means definitely decided
that the Kenosha team will be in the
league next season but the fact that
Manager Breen was present at the
meeting indicates that he is consider
ing return to the league. The Ke-
nosha team is assured place in the
Chicago League if the manager desires
to continue the relations of the last
season and he will be forced TO decide
between the two leagues later. 1t
now looks as if the circuit of the Lake
Shore League would be pretty much
the same as in former seasons and
there is some doubt as to whether it
would pay the Kenosha manager to go
into such league. Kenosha people
are anxious for league ball and it is
certain that team in the league would
pay better than one playing indepen-
dent ball.

Net Tonnage of the Flora
NJ. Hill" Greater Than the
City of Marquette"
TO GO into COMMISSION Soon

George Hale, collector of the port
of Kenosha this morning received from
the collector of customs at Milwaukee
the measurements for the new steamer
Of the Hill Steamboat Company. The
steamer was formerly the government
tender Dahlia and in a short time when
the red tape demanded by the govern
ment has been completed she will be
known as the steamer "Flora M.
Hill.' The rebuilt Dahlia has a
greater tonnage than the steamer Getty
of Marquette - The report of the
official measurement of the steamer
shows that she has gross tonnage of
623 tons and a net tonnage of 353
tons. The steamer Getty of Mar
quette'' has a net tonnage of 295
tons. The formal changing of the
name of the Dahlia will be made at
once, but there are so many forms to
go through that it will be three weeks
before the name of the steamer is
changed and the steamer registered
under the new name with the govern
ment officials.
& As yet the plans for the new steam
er have not been fully announced. 1t
is planned to have the steamer run on
the run now taken by the City of Mar
quette for time at least and it is
possible that later on both of the
steamers will be put on the Chicago
KenoshaW aukegan run. If the bust
ness of this run increases the two
steamers will be kept on the run, but
if the business does not warrant it is
is probable that the s'Flora M. Hill'
will be later put on some other run
possibly run about Green Bay. The
officials of the company have discussed
the plan of putting on a boat for a
run between Waukegan, Kenosha and
Milwaukee, but the Kenosha shippers
will have to show some interest in the
proposed new run before the boat is
put on. 1t is probable that the Flora
M. Hill will be put in commission by
the middle of February or the first of
March.

MAY HAVE HEARING THIS WEEK
Members of the Jury Tell of Their
Consideration of Charges Against
hasten and Man Had Narrow Escape
in This County.

Herman Hasten acquitted on charge
Of murder in the circuit court here on
Saturday afternoon is still liable to
Imprisonment on another charge but
late Saturday night he changed his
place of confinement from Kenosha to
Chicago. In keeping with the urgent
request of the relatives of Hasten
Chief of Police o Hare after he had
arrested Hasten on charge of lar
ceny as bailee consented to take him
to Chicago and turn him over to the
police in that city. Hasten must
stand trial on this second charge in
Chicago. Hasten said absolutely moth
ing during the trip from Kenosha to
Chicago and his relatives were decid-
edly wrought up over his arrest and
had nothing to do with Chief O'Hare
during the trip. When the train pull
ed into the Northwestern station in
Chicago the Chicago police officers
were awaiting the coming of Hasten
and he was hurried to the Chicago
avenue station where he was locked
up. Strenuous efforts were made to
bail him out, but the Chicago police
officers refused to consider any plan to
get bail for Hasten Saturday night.
Tt is probable that he will have hear
ing within a few days, but before he
is tried the facts alleged against him
will have to be presented to the grand
jury of Cook county.
That hasten had narrow escape in
Kenosha county is shown by the state
ments made by many of the members
of the jury who considered the evil
dence against him and had there been
any instructions to the jury that they
might find Hasten guilty of any charge
less than murder it is not improbable
that the verdict of the jury would have
been different. The story told by
HASTEN did not make deep impress
sion on the members of the jury, but
at that they were unwilling to find him
guilty aof murder as they thought that
even if he did have something to do
with the death Of Martin they insisted
that it was the result of a drunken
brawl and not of any premeditated
design on the part of HASTEN to kill
Martin.
1t is probable that Hasten will not
be heard of in Kenosha again as when
he left on Saturday evening he took
all his possessions with him and seem
ed to be decidedly glad to shake the
dust of Kenosha from his feet even if
he was being taken into Chicago to
again go behind the bars.

The ideal hero of all countries and
periods has been the warrior, and
probably still is. In this country,
and it doubtless holds good the world
over, the number of statues of mill
tary men is ten to one to those erect
ed to civilians. War with all it's
horrors bred manly virtues, courage,
generosity, truthfulness, simplicity,
obedience, scorn of meanness and self
sacrifice in those that followed it, and
men have always admired and COM
memorated them What is to take
their place in the piping times of
peace9 What win a nation be like
which has among its people none who
have known the discipline of war or
acquired the military virtues, and
none who have heard from sires or
grandames stirring tales of the strug-
giles in which they took part? 1t
would seem that patriotism as we
understand it must cease to exist, and
that love of country will be suppressed
cd by love of NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
