Members of Swedish Lutheran Church
Plan for Many improvements

At meeting of the members of the
Swedish Lutheran ST. Paul church on
Thursday evening plans were made for
extensive Improvements in the church
property located at the corner Of Pearl
and Third street. The church build
ing win be raised sufficiently to per-
nit the erection of basement with
room for an auditorium, kitchen, fur
mace room and other rooms. The al
cove of the church will be extended
and vestry is to be built. The
church proper will be overhauled and
re-decorated in order to make it one
of the most convenient as well as most
beautiful of the smaller churches in
the city The building contract has
been let to Windof Brothers while the
plumbing contract was let to Kaelber
and Kraft. The cost of the propos-
ed improvements will be in the neigh
borhgod of $4,000

.ELkS TO TAKE LEAD IN MOVE
Movement is Started to Interest
Every Fraterral and Social Organi-
cation in the City for the Benefit
of the Kenosna Hospital

A movement is being started among
the fraternal organizations in the city
which promises to be quite an aid to
the Kenosha Hospital Association. The
movement is one which provides for
rooms in the hospital being furnished
and equipped by these orders and if
the plan can be generally carried out
among the organizations it will come
as a great aid to the association and
will make it possible for hundreds of
men and women in Kenosha who have
made no contribution to the hospital
fund to show their interest in the in
stitution.
The matter has been taken up by
the Kenosha Lodge of the Benevolent
and Protective Order of Elks, always
a leader in all such movements and
this lodge will decide on the matter
at an early meeting The Elks feel
that this is one of the best ways for
the fraternal orders to show their in
terest in Kenosha. The members of
the board of directors will in a few
days get out a schedule of what is
needed to equip the rooms and wards
in the new hospital and after the
schedule is issued it will be possible
for the various orders to take up the
matter. There are more than forty
OF these orders in the city and it is
thought that the matter will appeal to
all of them. Nearly every one of the
orders has a membership of more than
a hundred and the cost Of equipping
room or ward would be a small mat
ter for the individuals to pay. Not
only are fraternal organizations to aid
in this work but it is expected that
church and social organizations will
take it up. The matter has been laid
before the members of the Woman IS
Club of Kenosha and the Dickens Club
and it is understood that both of these
organizations will offer to equip one
of the rooms in the hospital. The
number of private rooms and wards
in the new building will make it pos
sible for each of these organizations
to help.
1t is thought possible that this move
ment can be carried out so as to prac-
tically provide for the furnishing of
the hospital and the money which has
been set aside by the board of direc-
tors for this purpose will be set aside
as an endowment fund for the carry
ing out of the work Of the institution
The men of wealth in the city have
given large amounts to aid in the con
struction of the hospital and the plan
that is now being suggested will make
possible for the men who have not
contributed. to show their interest
Work on the excavations for the hos
pital is completed and the work of get
| ting up the walls is under way. It is
expected that the new building will
be completed by the end of the pres
emit year.
The hospital is being built for the
use of all the people of the city and
the nature of the work to be done by
the institution makes the movement
one that appeals deeply to all classes
of people.

MARRYING COUNT"
STANDS HOT SIEGE
Small Army of Women Who Claim
Him as Husband Visit
Him i'm Jail.

New York, Feb. 4.-Dr. Karl Emil
Won Miller. or Mueller, the marry
ing count" stood siege today In the
Hudson county jail in Jersey City. by
a small army of women who claim
him as husband.
Miller was brought to Jersey City
yesterday from Los Angeles.
He is said to be so plentifully mar
ried that a trial for bigamy on some
10 or 90 counts probably awaits him.
He was safe behind the bars and
failed to display the nervousness he
not unnaturally had exhibited when
two women met him at the railroad
station OH his arrival and one of them.
Miss Bertha Albrecht, throttled him
and created scene by her screams.
Miss Albrccht claims the coune
merely as a suitor who, when reject
ed, solaced himself With 5000 of her
money Miss Regina Vergina Belman
declares the count married her in
1908 and that when he left her he
took $3.50 OF her money.
Miller asserts he did not marry half
OF the women who declare he is their
husband. He denies any acquaintance
with Miss Albrecht
