SCARLET FEVER AT ASYLUM
State Board of Control Has Quarantin-
ed State Insane Asylum at Mendoza


A mild epidemic of scarlet fever has
broken out at the state insane asylum
at Mendoza and it has been quarantin-
ed by the board of control. An at
tendant came down with the disease
ten days ago. Then DR.. Mary Saul
hoff was stricken and soon two in
mates, man and woman, contracted
the fever.
The board of control is sending out
circular letters to county, judges all
over the state telling them they must
not commit any patients to this insti-
tuition for the present The hospital
is crowded and in order to make room
for any more it would be necessary to
remove some of the chronic patients
to county institutions and to transfer
those who have been exposed at Men
dota to other hospitals, might precipi-
tate a widespread epidemic.
THE situation is not alarming, but
at the same time the greatest care
must be exercised" said M. H. Tap
pins, secretary of the board of control
today.

WAS SOLD TO MILWAUKEE, MAN
J. Carson the Man Alleged to Have
Stolen an Automobile Slips Through
the Hands of the Officials of Many
States.

Chief of Police Owen O'Hare and
the members of the police department
have won new spurs by the recovery
Of a $4,000 Packard automobile stolen
from j. j. Burgess of New York City
two weeks ago Thursday and Burgess
is expected to arrive in Kenosha this
evening to recovery his property. j..
Carson is alleged to be the man who
stole the car and he managed to slip
through the clutches of officers of
half a dozen states between New York
and Kenosha. Chief O'Hare found
the automobile in garage in Mil
waukee where it had been sold for
the sum of 5000.
Burgess had left the car standing
in front of his Office in New York
when it was stolen and the New York
officials under the direction of Inspec-
tor McCafferty at once began search
for the car. The search had been
conducted in the eastern states but
the New York officials failed to con-
slider the possibility of the car being
brought as far west as Wisconsin.
A week ago yesterday Chief O'Hare
learned that an automobile had been
left in barn in the town Of Pleasant
Prairie near the state line and he went
out to the barn and found the car. It
bore a Wisconsin number but looking
around the chief managed to find a
New York number and he at once tele-
graphed to the secretary Of state in
New York to ascertain the owner of
the car. In the meantime he set out
to find the man who had left the car,
but before he received word from New
York the car was sent away to Mil
waukee, the man Carson having sold
it to the Swertzburg Garage in that
city. Carson disappeared after the
sale of the car, but O'Hare followed
the car to Milwaukee and located it
and directed that it be held pending
further investigation. Thursday he
was bombarded with kilograms from
New York officials demanding that, he
secure the custody of the car. Burgess
the owner, left New York Thursday
evening and is expected to arrive in
Kenosha tonight or tomorrow morn
ing. In the meantime officials in Mil
waukee and other cities have been
ordered to arrest Carson and hold him
pending the coming of the eastern Of
ficials
1t is thought that the car was run
all the way from New York to Keno
sha county in the two weeks and that
the man who stole it took unfrequent-
ed roads in order to get far enough
away from New York to be able to
dispose of it.

FARMERS TO PAY NO FEE.
Not & Public Utility; Therefore Not
Required to Pay State License Fee.

Attorney Gen. Frank L. Gilbert has
filed an opinion in answer to two let
ters from State Treasurer Dahl in re.
gard to questions relating to the lic-
ense fee imposed upon telephone com.
Epauies.
He writes that the state law pro-
vides that the telephone companies on
or before March ist, each year, shall
make return to the state treasurer
on the gross receipts from the oper-
alton of the business during the pre-
ceding year.
The opinion designates the various
kinds of telephone companies and says
those of the second class. known as
farmers lines, which do not hold
themselves out to the public to do a
general business or transmit messages
for hire and do not do so, are not held
as public utilities required to pay a

Old County Court Records are
Found to Be in Obsolete
System of Shorthand
IS HARD TO DECIPHER them

A unique condition was discovered
in connection with old records. of the
county court of Kenosha county this
morning when Judge Slosson began to
make an investigation of the old mus
ty records Of the court dating back to
the ffties and it was found that many
OF these old records are written in an
obsolete system of shorthand so that
they are practically of no value in
keeping track of the descent of prop
erty.
The discovery was made in the ex-.
animation of the settlement of the
estate of William A. Davis, a pioneer
OF the county, who died in 1857 and
whose estate was settled in the coun-
ty court. Letters have been receiv-
ed from heirs of the estate in Iowa
asking for copies of the record in
order to bring down an abstract, but
these copies will be furnished with
greatest difficulty. >
At the time of the settlement of
the estate in question John B. Jilson
was Judge of the county court. The
record was found fled away with "a
lot of early papers Of the court, but
when the clerk started to make the
copies she found that all the testimony
taken at the hearing as we'll as. much
OF the matter in the formal notices
of the settlement of the estate were
written in this obsolete system of
shorthand. 1t is possible to make
out word now and then, but the sys-
TENS of shorthand have changed in
many ways since these records were
written and it is impossible to make.
a complete copy of the record. Some
Of the most important features of the
testimony can not be deciphered. The
records for the court are found to be
incomplete in many particulars and it
is certain that no effort was made to
transcribe the Shorthand notes Of the
reporter of the court and these were
simply pasted to the formal papers
in the case It is impossible to tell
just how many of the old records are
affected by this action of the reporter
of the court as this is the first time
that one of these records has been
sought in nearly ten years. There
are hundreds Of the old records made
at about the same time and an investi-
cation shows that many of them con
tain nothing but the shorthand notes
of the hearings at which the estates
were settled.
1t would of course be impossible to
correct the records at this time as the
judge of the court, the reporter and
in most cases all the people connected
with the settlement of the estates are
long since dead. The Davis estate
was an unimportant one and disposed
of small amount of property, but
there is now cloud on the title of
this property on account Of the fact
that it is impossible to find out who
were the heirs to the estate.
