REVIVE RACING GAME.
Kenosha and Racine Horse
men Plan TO Hold Inter-
City Matinees
RACE MEET TO Be HELD HERE.

A big revival Of the racing game
has been planned by the members of
the Kenosha and Racine Gentlemen s
Driving Clubs and at joint meeting
held in Racine on Friday evening plans
for the coming season were mapped
out. Both the Racine and Kenosha
clubs have organized for the season
and plans have been completed for
holding series of inter-city matinee
races during the summer, the races to
be started just as soon as the weather
will permit the tracks in the two cities
being placed in condition. During
the last season this plan was given
trial and several inter-city matinees
were held and they proved to be decid-
edly interesting. This year the plans
of the two clubs provide for a regular
series of these meets and it is prob
able that one meet will be held at
each track during each month of the
racing season. 1t is also planned to
have a series of real races under the
rules of the National Trotting Asso
citation and these will probably be pull
ed off at the Balm track early in July
or August. This meeting will prob
ably be a two days meeting and the
time will be selected so as to make it
possible for many of the fast horses
on the circuit to be brought to Keno
sha for the meet. Work on the track
will be started early in April and it
is expected that it will be ready for
spring training by the middle Of that
month. The Balm track has always
been a favorite track for early train
ing and already space is being reserv-
ed at the stables for some Of the horses
that are expected to make big hit
on the circuit this year 1t is thought
that the sale of the Uhlein horses early
in May will stimulate the racing game
in this section of the state as local
horsemen are planning to secure sew
eral of the prize colts from that farm.
A program of the inter-city meets will
be given out early in April.

MAKE WORK MORE THOROUGH
Commissioners Seeking the Name of
Every Kenosha County Soldier in
Order That Due Honor May be Paid
to Him.

The commission in charge of the
erection of a permanent memorial to
the soldiers of Kenosha county, held
its second meeting at the court house
on Saturday afternoon for the purpose
of hearing the report of Chairman w.
H. Harrison and Secretary F. H. Ly-
man, who recently went to Elkhorn to
investigate the manner in which the
memorial to the soldiers of that county,
is being erected and it is probable that
the plan used in Walworth county will
be followed in this county. The inter
esting part Of the report was the ques-
ton of the cost of the memorial and
in Walworth county the memorial will
cost in the neighborhood of seventy
! FIVE cents for the name of each soldier
placed on the memorial tablets.
The people of Kenosha county have
not taken the interest in the getting
of the data that had been expected and
it is certain that the work of getting
this data of the services of the vari-
Gus men who served from Kenosba
county will be largely in the hands
of the members of the commission.
Already the officials of the commission
have secured considerable of the ma
terial from the books issued by the
e 4l,o h,,A
it will be impossible to get all the
material from these books on account
of the fact that scores of men who
were residents of the county at the
time of the breaking out of the war
enlisted in the army from other coun-
ties and even from other states. The
services of all Of the men could be Sc
cured from the war department records
but the names of the men must be Sc
cured before this material can be OBJ
tanned. The commission will do its
work thoroughly and Secretary Lyman
will make no effort to get out from
under the arduous task of seeking the
records if the friends of the soldiers
will only give him start in the work.
There are many of the old soldiers in
the county who have pledged them
selves to aid in the work of getting the
material but their efforts must be
seconded by the people at large who
have knowledge of soldiers who left
the county at the time of the war and
never returned.
The commission hopes to be able to
have some kind of report ready for
the county board when it meets next
November, but there will be no final
report sent out before that time. If
the material can be secured during the
present summer it is thought that the
memorial may be dedicated on Memoir
al Day of 1911.

RipOn Professor Declares the
Ground Has Been Frozen
But a Few Inches
PREDICTS GREAT FARM SEASON

Prof A. T. Gilman of Ripon College,
head of the department of chemistry
and geology, has discovered from vari-
Gus tests and reports from different
parts of the state, that the ground dur
ing the past winter has been frozen
to bare six inches down.
In his personal tests Prof Gilman
says that after breaking through this
thin crust he found no trouble what
ever in digging, the work being as
easy as at any time during the mid
summer season.
This bids well for the farmer. The
past winter has been light on him,
there being no heavy sleet storms or
devastating storms to carry destruc-
tion to his fruit trees or berry bushes.
The repeated heavy SHOWS, the first
coming before the ground had time to
freeze, have blanketed old mother earth
under warm covering keeping out
the frost, and preparing the soil for
the pillow of the farmer with the first
signs of spring.
1t is the sleet storms that do the big
damage to trees and bushes but during
the full season of this old-fashioned'
winter, the kind the old residents like
to tell of so well, there has not been
one bad sleet storm. 1t is predicted
by farmers, especially those of the
southern part of the state that the
crops will be in the ground earlier this
season than in several years. Certain
it is that all old adages have been
swept by the boards. The amateur
prophets have suffered, and even the
lion and lamb theory has been given
the lie by Herr Groundhog

Father0f Well Known Furni-
ture Dealers Died at Port
Washington Wednesday
LONG A RESIDENT OF STATE

Matthias Bode, father Of NJ. f. Bode,
Frank S. Bode and Matthias n. Bode,
the well known Kenosha furniture
dealers, died at his home in Port Wash
ington late Wednesday night as a re-
suit of a natural breaking down due
to advanced age. Mr. Bode had never
been a resident of Kenosha, but he
had spent much time with his three
sons in this city and was well known
to many Kenosha people. Mr.. Bode
was native of Luxembourg, Germany
and was born in 1882 He came to
America in 1854 and settled at Port
Washington where he had since resid-
ed. For more than twenty five years
he was employed as an engineer at the
-four mill at Port Washington, but for
the last twenty years he had lived a
retired life. He was married in 1857
to Miss Anna Reickinger of Port
Washington. To them were born
eight children and the widow and all
the children survive. The children
are Peter and Nicholas Bode of Chi
cago, Frank s., Michael and Matthias
n of Kenosha, Mrs. Jacob Schumack-
er, Mrs. Joseph Schuder and Miss Mary
Bode all of Port Washington.

SALOONS ARE LOSING |
Report of Us. Census Bureau
Shows a Falling Off in
Number in 1907
BIG CITIES WELL SUPPLIED

There was in 1907 a decrease OF 6
per cent in the number of saloons
throughout the country, according to
the United States Census Bureau s
forthcoming report on the statistics of
the 15S largest cities which had popu-
lation of over 10000 each that year.
The report, prepared by chief of di-
vision E. H. Mailing, contains complete
statistics of the number of liquor IL
censes in force at the close of the
license year in each of the cities and
the number of inhabitants to each deal
er selling liquor by the drink.
More than one-fourth of such dealers
in the 158 largest cities We're reported
from New York and Chicago; the cities
of over 100000 population with the
smallest number of saloons were Wash
ington (521) and Pittsburg (S1Sl. In
cities of this class, the largest num-
Der of saloons in proportion to the pop
ulation were in Milwaukee and New
Orleans where, in the former, there was
one dealer selling liquor by the drink
to every 142 inhabitants, and in the
latter, to every 200 inhabitants. The
number of inhabitants to every dealer
in Philadelphia was 761, and in Boston
1873. The other cities having less than
200 inhabitants to each dealer were
Galveston, 1874; East st. Louis, 143;
Mobile, 153; Houston, 15S; Hoboken,
16S; Sacramento, Cal, 1888; San An
tonic, 179; Lacrosse, Wis, 1888; Spring
field, ILL.,, 1888; and West Hoboken, 1911.
The smallest number of saloons in
proportion to population is shown for
the cities of Pennsylvania and Mas
