PAULINE. TO TRAVEL
Presidents Cow to Come West
and Take in Live Stock
Show at Milwaukee
GIVES FAME TO THIS COUNTY

The fame of Pauline Wayne is
reaching out in a new direction. The
citizens of Waterloo, Ia, recently sent
man to Washington to get permission
of the president to have the famous
cow for their dairy show next October.
The International Dairy show of
Milwaukee, noting this has taken the
position that if Pauline is exhibited
anywhere she should be at it's show in
Milwaukee, as Wisconsin is her home,
and as the international show there is
to be the greatest Of its kind.
The people throughout the country
and state are familiar with the history
of the presentation of Pauline Wayne
to the president, and the Milwaukee
people are said to be extremely anxious
that Pauline be obtained for their
show next October, not only as a Wis
consin product, but as an attraction Of
unusual interest.
The incorporators of the show are
leading business men of Milwaukee
and breeders throughout the state.
Teiegrams and letters have been sent
to Senator Stephenson to use his in
fuence with the president to get
Pauline for Milwaukee, but as these
came to Washington since the senator
had returned home, they were laid be-
fore the president by his secretary, L..
S. Patrick.
The president has expressed his will
ingness that Pauline may go, and if no
unforeseen occurrence interferes Pau
line will visit her home state as a
guest of tie International Dairy show

CITY rs LIABLE.
City Must Fay for the Injuries of Men
Employed in the City Work.


1t may be surprise to the officials
of many of the cities of the state to
know that they are now working under
the workmen's compensation act.
The moment the bill was signed all
state, city, county, town and village
employees came under its operations
automatically. In this regard the law
is compulsory.
This means that any employee in
state, county, or municipality, if in
jured in his line of duty, will be taken
care of by the community engaging
him and the allotments provided in the
act made him.
Few people are aware of this provi-
sion of the new law. This means that
if employees are injured they will
have 65 per cent of their wages paid
them and if they should die from the
injury or should be killed their family
or heirs would receive four years
wages. 1t is the same with the city,
county and village employees. 1t is not
necessary for them to elect whether
they will or not come under the law.
The commission is looking about for
a secretary. There are plenty of can
didates, but none of those so far nam
ed seem to impress the commissioners
as just the right person for this i'm
portant place.

Decided Changes in Rules for
Carrying Baggage Will Go
Into Effect in Short Time
VALUE OF PROPERTY LIMITED

The most radical change in baggage
carrying rules ever made by the rail
roads will become effective on humid
red and seHenty-fve different systems
June /, 1912. After the first of the
year "excess' baggage rates will APP
ply to pieces according to size as well
as weight. Any trunk, box or piece OF
baggage measuring 40 inches in any
dimension will be charged for at the
rate of ten pounds for each inch. Any
piece measuring over seventy inches
in any dimension, show baggage ex-
cepted, will not be taken. The reg,
ular excess weight rates will be charg-
ed on pieces weighing over $50 pounds.
No piece of baggage will be accept
ed on which the value is fixed at more
than 800, but if the passenger SO de
sires, the railway company will issue
a insurance policy" covering transit
Of the trunk or grip at the rate of ten
cents for each additional $500 value,
and for each SIS worth of Transports
ton.
On May % new rule governing the
transportation of dogs viii become eff
factive Instead of checking them as
ordinary baggage, dogs will go as ex-
cess baggage and charged for by the
pound.
These revisions in baggage carrying
rules will cause a number of changes
to be made by the travelling public.
Many of them, commercial travellers,
viii have to get new trunks in which
to carry Their sample lines. The
seventy-inch maximum dimension will
throw out a lot of trunks that now are
taken if they can be put through the
car door.
The railroad companies also reserve
the right to choose the train on which
to forward baggage. If they see fit to
hold it for a train later or to send it
ahead of the one on which the patron
rides, they will do SO and the owner
will have nothing to say. In the past
suits have grown out of claims made
that the company failed to send bag
gage on the first train. These actions
have been instituted by statesmen who
claimed to have lost much time be-
cause samples were not at the depot
when they alighted from the train

DEATH OF PHILIP DREIS.
Father of Former Kenosha Clergymen
Died on Monday at Burlington.

Philip Dreis, aged 80 years, father
of the Rev. Henry Dreis and the Rev
Philip Dreis, formerly pastors of St.
George church, and Mrs. John B. Wal
Zig of this city, died at Burlington on
Monday evening. Death was due to a
general breaking down due to ad
vanced years. Mr.. Dreis had made his
home with his daughter in Kenosha
until short time ago when he went
to Burlington. At that time he was in
usual health and the announcement of
his death will come as shock to his
friends in Kenosha. The funeral will
be held in Milwaukee ON Friday morn
ing and the remains will be buried
there.

Offices of Wisconsin Humane Society
May be Removed to Kenosha.

/ SuCcS VI WISSOl1olu AAulAuAIC SSoSlGbJ
May be Removed to Kenosha.
Kenosha is now the headquarters Of
the Wisconsin Humane society on ac-
count Of the fact that theodore Borup,
the president of the state organization
recently came here from Milwaukee to
take up the management of the Eichel
man hotel. Mr.. Borup has been promi-
nent in the affairs of the Wisconsin
association for a number of years and
has been most active as president
When seen this morning Mr.. Borup
said: "The office Of the president of
the association will remain in Kenosha
during the remainder of the year, but
[ shall be forced to give up the office
at that time as it is most necessary
that the central organization be locat-
ed in Milwaukee. The most important
thing doing with the state organization
is the "work horse" parade to be Civ
en- under the direction Of the organiza-
ton in Milwaukee on Memorial day.
| regret greatly that it has been said
that the parade will interfere with any
Of the plans of the members of the
grand army and it certainly was not
the intention of the association to
have such clash when the date for
the parade was set. The plans for the
parade have all been made and it
would be difficult to change the date
However, feel convinced that in an
other year the officials of the associa-
tion will see that there is no clash
with the old soldiers.

TO LECTURE TO BOYS.

Dr. Winfield S. Hall Of Chicago, a
national authority on great questions
of health, is to come to Kenosha on
Thursday of next week to deliver a
series of four lectures to the bows of
the Kerosha high school and their par
ents. DR.. Hall has spoken to more
than hundred thousand men and
boys in the past few years and his
lectures are of the greatest interest as
they deal with problems Of especial
interest to boys and men. He discusses
the question of health from a decidedly
personal standpoint and his lectures
have been productive of great good.
Dir. Hall is coming to Kenosha under
the auspices Of the Kenosha branch of
the Y. NJ. C. 4. and more definite an
nouncement of the lectures win be
made within the next few days

WOULD REMOVE GUARDIANSHIP.
George G. Potts Asks the County Court
to Restore His Property to Him.

George G. Potts, formerly of Keno
sha but now of Chicago, has filed a
petition with the county court asking
that the guardianship over his estate
made by the county court for this
county in 1907 be declared invalid and
that his property be restored to him.
In his petition Mr.. Potts states that
he is now in business in Chicago and
that he has entirely recovered his
health In support of his petition he
urges that the county court of Keno
sha acted without warrant in naming
the Northwestern Loan and Trust com
pany as guardian of his estate on ac-
count of the fact that he had no prop
ertv within the state of Wisconsin
He states further that he is now and
has been for some time in the active
discharge of business in Chicago and
that there no longer exists any reason
for the guardianship. Judge Taylor has
set June 9th as the time for the hear
ing of the petition.

DEDICATE MONUMENT MONDAY
Captain George Hale, Frank H.
Lyman and State Senator Isaac r.
Bishop to Represent the Kenosha
Soldiers at the Big Event.

governor ETduClS IJ' MCUOV0rn mas
announced the appointment of State
Senator Isaac I. Bishop, Captain
George Hale and Frank II. Lyman to
represent Kenosha county soldiers on
the commission which will 60 to Vicks-
burg the latter part of this week to
represent the state at the unwilling
of the monument erected there to the
memory Of Wisconsin veterans. The
commissions of the Kenosha delegates
were brought to KenOsha on Monday
| by State Senator Bishop and it is ex-
pected that all three of the men will
accept the appointment and go south
with the official party. The party will
make the trip on special train leav-
ing Madison on Friday afternoon and
reaching Vicksburg on Sunday after
noon. The ceremonies attending the
unwilling of the, monument will not
take place until Monday afternoon
and this will give the Wisconsin vet
Grams a chance to make trip over
the old battlefelds in and around
Vicksburg and to recall memories of
the war time.
The Wisconsin monument is one of
the most beautiful erected ON the field
at Vicksburg and it contains the
names of thirteen Wisconsin commands
which participated in the fighting
about this histosical soslthern battle
| field. Three of the companies from
Wisconsin were Kenosha county com
panies. These included Companies FL
and / of the Thirty-third Wisconsin
and Company B of the Seventeenth
Wisconsin. Captain George Hale is
one of the best known of the surviv-
ors Of the Thirty-third.
The monument is of Wisconsin gran
tie and the erection of it was started
more than nine years ago. George
Hale was a member of the original
commission that went to Vicksburg to
locate the monument many years ago
The cost of the monument has been
q little over 100000. The ceremonies
arranged for the dedication will take
place ON Monday afternoon and even
ing. There will be addresses by the
governor of the state and by promi-
nent members of the Wisconsin depart
ment. of the grand army after which
the monument will be unveiled. Fol
lowing the official ceremonies Of ded-
ication of the monument the Wisconsin
soldiers will hold camp. fire at which
the service of the state troops will be
recalled.
1t is expected that fully three humid
red members of the grand army will
be on the special train on Friday and
Governor McGovern in his appoint
ment of the commission has sought to
recognize every county which gave
troops which fought on the historic
battlefield. Other members of the
grand army not included i'll the official
list will be permitted to go on che
special train. The cost of the trip
will be made as light as possible and
it is thought that the entire five days
trip can be made for a little over $50.

Expenditures.

1t has been found that it costs on
an average of ten cents a day per
pupil for the lunches served, so that
an estimate can now be made of money
needed to run the school for the bal
ance of the term, with the attendance
at Is. The amount needed for mat
ron's salary and for food supplies the
containing five. weeks is $500. If
contributions continue to come in as
during the past month, the cash needs
will be reduced The salary of the
teacher is paid by the school board,
This added to the expenditure as Civ.
en- above, brings the total for running
The school for four weeks, to $1,000
Acknowledgements are due to DR.. S.
W. Murphy for giving the school care
full medical supervision and for see
ing that the weights of the children
are accurately taken every Monday
morning. Miss DeSpelder, nurse at
the city hospital, visited the school
during the first week, until the process
of taking Temperatures and pulse had
been learned by those in charge. Mr.
Fogwell of the Y. M. C. A. has visited
the school several times to advise
about the proper gympastic exercises
for the children.
As an experiment aimed at the ply
steal Improvement and restoration OF
sick and anaemic children, the open
air school is success. The children
are doing their school work regularly
the morning program affording Mrs
Heating two hours and the afternoon
program one hour and forty minutes
to hear classes and help individuals
about their lessons When not employ
ed with books, children are engaged
with their hand work, or in their gar
dens, or rest in their reclining chairs
While it is far from the chief purpose
of the school to keep the children UP
TO the course of study, their studies
are not being neglected. The dis
cipline of the school is easy and the
attendance almost perfect. The chief
worriment on the part of several of
the children seems to be, that in five
weeks the school viii close.

The open air school has completed
its first month There are now Is
children in attendance, II Of whom

The attendance has been almost per-

children who have beensin school since
the start is over two pounds. Pulse

The children of Miss Murphy's school at Middle district had very en- joyable Christmas exercises with a we'll laden Christmas Tree, Friday af- ternoon. An interesting program of appropriate recitations had been pre- pared at the close of which the music of Santa was heard in the, distance causing immediate excitement to the happy little gathering. Patrick H. Cannon who was responsible Tor the appearance of Santa did the honors in his usual amusing manner making the bright eyes stand out brighter as each one shook hands with the Tener- able gentleman or as they gleefully marched up to receive their respec- tive gifts of which there seemed to be a bountiful supply. At the con- clusion a Merry Christmas was wish ed all around and the children went home happy with the thoughts of still more Christmas to come.
