ANOTHER new CHURCH.
Slavonic Lutherans Organize
Congregation Made Up Of
Seventy Families
GET OLD HOWE HOMESTEAD

Kenosha is to have new church
before many months as an organiza-
ton of the Slavonie Lutherans in the
city has been formed and property
has been purchased on which church
will be erected some time in the
future. The organization is unique
in that it is the first non-Catholic or
ganization to be formed among the
people coming from fhe Slavish coun-
tries to Kenosha. The new congre-
cation is known as ST. John IS Con-
gregation' and it has purchased the
old Howe house on Chicago street at
the north limits of the city and for
the present time this house will be
used as the meeting place of the con-
gregation.
Plans already being considered for
the building of a church, but it will
probably be another year before these
plans are carried out. The new con-
gregation numbers among it's member
ship more than seventy families and
it is claimed that there are many
other Lutheran families among the
nationality in .Kenosha and that with
in a short time these will be brought
into the church society and that it will
be one of the strongest church socie-
ties among the foreign born people of
the city. The Lutheran people of Ke-
nosha have been organizing rapid
ly during the past ten years. Ten
years ago the only organization
among the Lutherans which was in
any way strong was the German Luth-
eran church, but since that time con-
gregations have been organized among
the English, Danish, Swedish and Sal
vonic followers of the church and
these organizations have not material
ly decreased the membership of the
parent church in Kenosha. All of
the bodies have churches of their own
with the exception of the one recently
organized and the parent organization
within the past year has built one of
the finest churches in Kenosha.
1t is probable that the new organi-
cation will make many changes in the
old Howe homestead on North Chicago
street an dthat many of the members
of the church will build homes in that
neighborhood. The church people
have not secured any portion of the
Milwaukee avenue frontage of the
Howe property, but a large number of
lots on Chicago street are being held
for these people.

Completion of the Wisconsin
Monument to Soldiers at
Vicksburg, Delayed
WILL Be MOST IMPOSING SHAFT

Hundreds of old soldiers throughout
Wisconsin will be disappointed to
learn that the dedication of the Wis
consin memorial on the battlefield Of
Vicksburg will not take place on May
p, as was previously announced.
At meeting of the Wisconsin
Vicksburg Military Park Commission
in the Office Of Col. A. G. Weissert at
Milwaukee, at which were present
Senator H. P. Bird, Marinette; o. j.
Burnham, Richland Center, and Col.
Weissert, it was decided that the dedi-
cation of the memorial monument
would probably be set for some time
in October, as the approach Of the hot
and rainy season would make an earli-
er date impracticable. 1t is expected
that 800 Wisconsin veterans will at
tend the dedication exercises. Over
800 have already written Col. /Weissert
that they will go.
Senator Bird has just returned from
a trip to Vicksburg to ascertain the
condition of this 100000 memorial
monument, the erection of which was
made possible by the 1907 legislature.
He says that from what he can now
judge, the Wisconsin monument will
be the most imposing of any on the
field. There are now seven state
monuments and hundreds of monu-
ments to regiments and individuals.
~ find that the granite, which is
mined in Winnsboro, s. c., is hand
some, and the effect as the memorial
takes shape is most imposing said
Senator Bird, "and in design and ma
terials used the Wisconsin monument
will excel anything in this park, which
is conceded to be the most wonderful
military park in the world. No other
gives so perfect an idea of the military
engagements which have taken place
upon it's fields
The postponement of the dedication
is because the work cannot be properly
completed at the time previously ap-
pointed.

TROUBLE IN SALEM
Saloon Men in Squabble AS
to Which Brewing Co.,
Shall Have Last License
ANTICS TO FORCE BOARD TOAcT

The town of Salem in the western
part of the county has not gone dry,
but the town board is in peck of
trouble over the question OF licensing
the saloons in the town for the coming
year. Some of the people who have
opposed the saloons have discovered
that Salem has just as many saloons
as the law allows it, There are now
ten saloons in the town and an eleventh
one located at the village of Trevor
| is seeking license. The, anti-saloon
people have fled a protest with the
town board demanding that no further
licenses be granted and it is certain
that should the town board seek to
place a new saloon on the list that
it will be stopped by injunction from
issuing the license.
Salem has now one more saloon than
is permitted by the law and the peo
pie do not propose to stand for an
other license. However, the fight in
Trevor is an interesting one and one
that will undoubtedly furnish some
juicy crumbs for the lawyers for two
big Chicago brewing companies. The
Yopp and the Hahn saloons are the
contenders for the license. The Yopp
saloon is one which has been opened
by the Fortune Brothers Brewing Com
pany under the direction Of Mayor M.
J. scholey, the agent for the company
in Kenosha county, The other one is
under the direction of the Schoenhofen
Brewing Company of Chicago. The
mayors brewing company is the new
conner in the fight and the question that
| is to be fought out in the courts is
as to whether the license remains in
the building or whether the proprie-
tor Of the saloon can take the license
and open business in another building
/ The Hahn saloon had the license last
year but it was hung up on the walls
of the building which is to be occupied
Iby the Yopp saloon.

FROST AFTER TIMBER
President of C. & N. After
Control of Great Timber
Lands in Canada
NOTHING NEW IN RAILWAY LINE

There is an old saying that ga
good man will not down., and the say
ing is emphatically emphasized in the
case of A. c. Frost, president of the
Chicago and Milwaukee Electric Rail
road Company, now not active in the
road s management, but nevertheless a
big man in railroad matters.
The fact is that while he is not con-
nected with the railroad along the
north shore, he is developing his Alas
ka road and he has now gone into a
new venture-he is investings heavily
in timber land in Canada.
1t is stated that Mr.. Frost and
financial hackers have obtained options
on over 2,OOoOoo,oo0 feet of lumber
in Canada, in fact, it is said they have
practically gained control Of all the
timber in British Columbia
Timber land is just now considered
one of the best investments going and
it is believed that Mr.. Frost S fore
sight in this matter will result in him
making another fortune which he lost
through the troubles of the c. and NJ.
E. r. r.
Mr. Frost states that there is moth
ing doing in the matter of him taking
back control Of the Chicago and Mil
waukee Electric road. He feels that
the time will come when he will be
active head of the road, but does not
try to predict when it will be. The
fact that the foreclosure action by
the bondholders was STAYED off recent
ly is indicative of Mr.. Frost s ulti-
mate success and is a big point in his
favor.
The fact that Mr.. Frost has turned
his hand to the timber business and
evidently is promoting one of the larg-
est projects he has ever been interest
ed in, interests Kenosha. It is one
of those cases where "a good man will
not down, - for Mr.. Frost is surely com
ing to the front and recuperating his
lost fortune (Which he voluntarily
gave over to the receivers of the cleo
trio line in order to protect the in
vestors as much as possible.) And,
in the timber deal, he has a project
which is even more promising and GER
tain than the railroad business. That
he is being backed in this stupendous
undertaking by most careful Canadian
business men, even some who were in
on the electric road deal, shows their
confidence in him, it shows that they
regard him as man who is bound to
keep to the front and succeed.

ment in the construction of residences
means much to the rural community

Secretary Of State Reports
1928 Autos Are Owned by
individuals in Wisconsin
MANY LICENSES DURING YEAR

The growing popularity of the auto
mobile in Wisconsin is evident in the
records in the office Of Secretary of
State Frear, where licenses are issued
according to law, not only to users
of machines, but to dealers as WELL
Since January l, 1910, there have been
1885 automobile licenses issued as
against $50 in the same time year
ago; this In spite of the fact that the
license fee has been doubled increasing
from 81 to So, in the mean time.
In the same time the number of
dealers registering has increased from
twenty in 1909 to forty-seven in 1910;
that is new dealers entering the field
as sellers of auto machines. =
The whole number of cars now regis
tered in Wisconsin as revealed in the
records is 10,918 and motorcycles go,
while the whole number of dealers in
automobiles is 256 and motorcycle
dealers six.
Dealers licenses are for the protec-
ton of dealers and the fee is SIS which
entities the holder to four number
plates to be used on ears for demon
stration purposes. The dealer who is
showing off his wares at speed, with
out one of these numbers is subject
to penalty.
The license fee of So for owners is
not an annual fee as many have sup
posed, but is good as long as the ma
chine lasts in the ownership of the
person to whom the certificate and
number is issued If the machine is
sold, however, OF its ownership trans
ferred the license at once becomes void
and the new owner must apply for a
license in his own name, paying the
So fee.

MRS. GRANT NUTTNG DEAD
Former Well Known Kenosha Woman
Died in Davenport Monday

Mrs. Martha Farr Nutting. aged As
years, wife of Grant Nutting of Dav-
export, Iowa and a sister of DR.. Will
liam M. Farr of this city, died at her
home in Davenport on Monday after
la long illness. Mrs. Nuttinc was
widely known in Kenosha and the an
nouncement of her death will come as
a great sorrow to a large circle of
friends.
Mrs. Nutting was the only daughter
of the late DR.. A. Farr. She was
born in Kenosha in April 1862. She
was educated in the schools of Kenosha
and later was graduated from Ferry
Hall at Lake Forest Since her mar
riage to Mr.. Nutting she had made her
home in Davenport. She was one of
the most enthusiastic members of the
the Kenosha High School Association
and was nearly always one of the mem
bers attending the semi-annual re-
unions.

on the north side of the city earlier
in the night, but he was not stopped
by the officer. Chief O'Hare who had
retired for the night hurried back to
his office and for the remainder of
the night directed the chase for the
man but it was vain hunt.
The police feel certain that the burg
lar was professional and that he
had come in from some other city to
commit burglary and make his get
away. He was evidently armed to
the teeth.
Officer Euting was able to be at the
police headquarters on Sunday morn
ing but it will probably be several
days before he is able to resume his
regular work on the force. His es-
cape is regarded as very narrow one.

Rockefeller in Church.

John D. Rockefeller in his pew Ia
the Fifth Avenue Baptist church, New

wealthy. When the pew is not filled
by members of his own family he is
generous in inviting into it strangers
who otherwise might have to stand
or be crowded uncomfortably in other
pews Such was his attitude Sunday
morning, for he welcomed three stran-
gers into his pew and made room that
they might be comfortable and listen
to the sermon of Rev. Dr. Charles F.
Aked, pastor. When the service was
finished Rockefeller shook hands with
both women and asked them if they
did not like DR.. Aked's address He
bowed to them as friends of his ap-

the front.
Total valuation of property in Fall
River county for the year 1910 is 3d..
