Pending.

Clerk Of the circuit court Frank Wal
do this morning forwarded to the state
department Of vital statistics at Madi-
son his annual report of divorce sta
tistics for Kenosha county for the year
ending Sept. 30th and this report offers
food for reflection for the people who
are interested in the fight to eliminate
the divorce evil from Wisconsin,.
The report shows that in the twelve
months 80 actions for divorce were in
stituted in the circuit court and eight
cases were started in the municipal
court. A separate report On these cases
will be filed by the clerk Of the NUM-
cipal court between now and the first
of January. Of the twenty -four cases
which went to judgment in the circuit
court twenty were begun by wives who
had charges against their husbands
The other four were begun by the hus-
bands and in every case where the di-
vorce action was started by the husband
desertion is given as the cause. Twelve
fair Divorces declared that their hus-
bands treated them cruelty and got a
decree on charges of cruel and inhuman
treatment while the other six alleged
desertion or habitual drunkenness as a
cause for separation. In the families
broken up by the divorce court during
the twelve months there were 38 chill
dren, and in all cases save one these
children were placed in the custody of
the mothers. In ten of the families
effected by the divorce DEGREES there
were no children.
There are eight cases for divorce now
pending in the circuit court and three
in the municipal court.

John Miller With 18Children
Has Prize ROOseyeltan Fam
lily of Kenosha County
DEMANDS attention

John Miller, a foreman at an ice
house at Lake Elizabeth at Twin Lakes
has the honor of being the first man
in Kenosha county to have a real
Rooseveltan family and within the past
few days Mr.. Miller and his good wife
have received letters from former Presi-
dent Theodore Roosevelt congratulate
ing them on the arrival of their last
son. In addition to this the former
president and advocate Of antirace
suicide and the strenuous life has for
warded to the youngest son a little
present which comes as an acknowl-
edgment that the twentieth member
of the Miller family has been named
for the former president. Theodore
Roosevelt Miller is just past two
months old and he is just as lively as
any of the other seventeen children in
the Miller family. Mr.. Miller and his
record breaking family of eighteen
children formerly lived in the town of
Salem but he recently removed to the
town Of Randall. Mr.. and Mrs Miller
are now advancing to middle age and
every one of the eighteen children have
always been decidedly healthy and out
side of the visit Of the stork to the
Miller home there has been little call
for the services of physicians
The Miller family is one of the big
features of the western part Of Keno
sha county and the Miller family was
about the only exhibit that the county
had at the recent state fair in Milwau-
kee. Salem and Randall people like
to joke with Miller over his family
but he is proud of the distinction and
one of the funny stories told about
the family was told by Miller himself
He marched up to the state fair with
his eighteen youngsters the last arrival
Teddy being carried by his mother.
As he approached the gates he spoke
to the gateman and told him he had
eighteen children and expected re-
duced rate for such wholesale business
and was Immediately passed through
the gates. The next place that the fam
ily visited was pavilion where there
was a famous Durham bull on exhibi-
ton and Miller walked up to the en-
trance and proudly displayed his fam
lily. eighteen children did you sayg''
was the comment Of the man in charge.
" You don't need any tickets to see
this show continued the man "you
and your eighteen just stand right
where you are and we will bring the
Durham bull out and let it have look
at you.
Mr.. and Mrs. Miller are showing the
proper American spirit and all Of their
children are being given as good an
education as the schools Of the county
will afford.

FIND DR.. LITTLE WAS INSANE.
Corners Jury Finds That Evanston
Rector Was Insane.

DR.. Arthur Wilde Little, rector Of
st. Mark s Episcopal church of Evans
ton has been declared by both legal
and an ecclesiastical court to have been
insane when he fred the bullet into
his head and put an end to his life.
The legal decision will have direct
bearing on the collection of about $780,
900 insurance that DR.. Little is thought
to have carried on his life.
The ecclesiastical finding of his in
sanity grants him funeral services with
in the church sanctuary and the per
Torrance of these rites by the bishop
of the diocese.
That the last straw was letter writ
ten him by his wife, for many years
in the Pennoyer Sanitarium, from Mil
waukee in which she said she contem-
plated divorce proceedings now appears
probable.
Another interesting circumstance that
has come to light is that Mrs. Little
was diyorcee when he married her in
Maine twenty-one years ago and
brought her to Evanston as his bride.
Soon after they came to Evanston
letters were addressed to various resi-
dents of the town from her divorced
husband, it is charged by members of
the congregation, in which he attacked
the character of both the new rector
and his wife. But their loyalty to each
other never faltered Mrs Little IS first
husband died several years ago.

Bijou Theatre One of Houses
of Western Theatre Man
ayers Assn. of Chicago
MANY THEATRES ARE ALLIED
ALI Acts Appearing in the Various
Theatres are Secured Through Great
Central Booking Agency in Chicago
This Year

After attending the vaudeville per-
formante at the Bijou theatre did it
ever occur to you just how the shows
are arrangedg There are usually to be
found from three to six numbers IN
every bill, and that these acts do not
travel as one company from week to
week is fact not generally known.
Each act is an entirely separate organ
ization, and those who are on pro-
gram one week may only occasionally
meet on their tour of the circuit. There
must necessarily be unusual system in
arranging these shows; great care must
be exercised that no two performances
do the same sort of stunt; that the
tastes of the many publics are catered
to, for each city has it IS likes and dis
likes in the show line just as it has in
other things, and what may please in
Kenosha may not do so elsewhere; that
the railroad connections are always pos
sible with a view always in mind Of
keeping the fare at the minimum; not
flying the managers in every city the
nature of the show each week, and~the
forwarding of photographs and matter
for advertising and theatre programs.
These and countless important details,
constitute the daily routine of a big
booking organization, the largest of
which is the Western Vaudeville Man
ayers Association, who occupy two
entire floors Of the Majestic Theatre
Building in Chicago and who, with their
affiliated interests, control theatres in
every city in the United States, and
also in Great Britain.
In addition to booking vaudeville
theatres, the Western Vaudeville Man
ayers Association engages attractions
for clubs, parties and private entertain
ments, and special department is kept
busy arranging professional diversion
for those who desire this novel method
Of amusing their guests, either in their
home or the exclusive club.
This great organization, employing
more than fifty persons the year around;
and with it, branch Offices in Des
Moines, Iowa and Fargo, North Dakota,
is under the direct supervision of c. E.
Bray, the general manager, whose off
ices in Chicago's twenty-five story high
skyscraper, the Majestic Theatre Build
ing, are daily the scene of the busiest
activities in matters pertaining to the
world Of the stage.

SENDS IN STATISTICS STRONG FOR PARTYON NOTED CIRCUIT
VanKeuren, Prohibition Can
didate for Governor, Opens
Campaign in This Go.
POLITICAL PARTY ONLY HOPE

The state campaign so far as Kenosha
is concerned was opened on Friday
when Byron e. Van Keuren of Oshkosh,
Prohibition candidate for governor de-
livered four addresses in the county
closing with his visit to the county
with a meeting at the Y. M. c. A. Au-
ditorium on, Friday evening. That the
prohibition party is not dead in the
county is shown by the gathering of the
faithful for the meeting and all OF the
old time wheel horses of the party
turned out to greet the candidate and
make this opening of the campaign as
notable as possible. In his address
Mr.. Van Keuren said:
"The greatest question and the one
that concerns the people mere than any
other is the destruction of the liquor
traffic and its domination of our pol
itical parties. The Anti-Saloon league
tells US that during the past five years
$4,000 saloons were put out of business,
that nearly half of our territory has
been voted dry; that 100000 of our
people are living in dry territory and
yet the internal revenue reports for the
year ending June 80, 1910 show that
the consumption of liquors is constant
ly increasing. 9,114,977 more gallons
of spirits were consumed in 1910 than
in 1909, 58,272,337 gallons more beer
have been sold this year than last year
and the business is steadily growing
regardless Of the agitation against it.
If all this money has been spent, all
territory voted dry on the non-partisan
plan and still the business has increas-
eds by such giant strides it becomes
evident that the only thing to do is to
kill the liquor traffic and to dethrone it
from its place of power in politics.
Mr.. Van Keuren spoke of the meth
DDS employed in fighting the liquor traf-
fic and he declared that the only way
the power of the liquor traffic would be
destroyed would be through political
party with the one aim as the great is
sue of the party. He declared that the
Anti-Saloon league had failed in its eff
forts and that so long as an effort was
made to fight the liquor traffic along
non-partisan lines the liquor men would
continue to control both of the old
parties. He declared that in the Pro
hibition party the people who opposed
the sale of liquors had chance to land
a body blow at the brewery and the
grog shop and put them out of bust
ness and out of politics for all time.
He urged changes in the interstate com
merce laws to aid in carrying out pro-
hibition legislation in states in the dry
column and declared that the govern
ment must come to the aid Of the peo-
pie in this great fight if prohibition
extended over the entire country was
ever to be secured.
The gubernatorial candidate went to
Racine county this morning and will
make four speeches in that county dur
ing the day.

In response to many complaints that

and discomfort, amounting sometimes
to hardship and suffering, the Wisconsin
Anti tuberculosis association has issued
a bulletin giving pointers for passeng-

The railroads apparently are making
no effort to follow the spirit of the
ruling. Here is an excellent opportun-
ity for live commercial enterprises to
dispense individual paper cups, bearing
their own advertisements, free to all.

at first appreciate the lirnitations i'm

ASKS A DIVORCE.
Mrs. Sine Sandholm Files Action for
Divorce from Her Husband

Divorce from Her Husband
In the municipal court this morning
Mrs. Sine Sandholm through her attor-
ney Calvin Stewart filed suit demand
ing an absolute divorce from her hus-
band Fritz Sandholm. Both parties are
residents of Kenosha. They were mar
ried here in 1894 and the wife alleges
cruel and inhuman treatment and habi-
tual drunkenness as causes for the di-
vorce. She alleges in her complaint
that her husband on several occasions
assaulted her and that he forced her to
flee from her home during the past two
months. The Sandholms have long been
known to Kenosha people. They have
three children but the wife does not
ask the custody of the children in her
suit for divorce.
