FORM FIRST TEMPLE
Racine and Kenosha Pythi-
ans to Form Temple of
Knights Of Xorahsan,
TO HAVE LONG CHARTER LIST

Thirty members of Castle Lodge of
the knights of Pythias will go to RAJ
cine ON Thursday evening to take part
III the organization of the First Tenn
pie of the dramatic order Of the Knights
of Korahsan to be established in Wis
consin. The order occupies in the or
der Of the knights Of Pythias the same
place that the Mystic Shrine has in
the Masonic bodies.
The knights of Korahsan have been
organized for years, but only a short
time ago the question of organizing q
temple in Wisconsin was taken up and
at that time it developed that there
was keen rivalry between Racine, Ike
the cities would have the first temple
Milwaukee opened charter roll some
time ago and secured fifty four mem
bers of the order in Wisconsin but
the Racine and Kenosha members Of
the order united their efforts and the
new temple will bear the name Racine
Kenosha Temple. Already ninety-one
members of the Racine Lodge of the
knights of Pythias have signed the
charter and with thirty signers in Ke-
nosha the number is considerably lafg-
er than the number demanded by the
order for the granting Of the charter
At the meeting to be held on Thurs
day evening the temple will be formal
ly organized and petition sent to the
head officials of the order for dis
pensation to organize Temple No l, in
Wisconsin. 1t will take about month
to provide for the organization of the
temple and at the end of this period
arrangements will be completed for the
initiation Of the members in the two
cities. After the institution of the
temple it is expected that the Racine
and Kenosha Knights will have charge
of the institution Of the temple in Mil
waukee.
While but thirty of the members of
the Kenosha Lodge of the pytl,ians
have signed the charter for the tenn
pie it is thought that before the end
of the year Kenosha will offer at least
fifty candidates for initiation

SADIE" IS ELUSIVE
Girl Supposed to Have Been
With Marrs Thought to Be
Anonymous Letter Writer
SUGGESTS WHERE SHE HIDES

| Interest of the police of the city in
the search for Prof. j. G. Mars, the
missing clairvoyant, who is alleged to
have swindled Kenosha and Racine peo-
pie out of considerable money, was
stimulated and given little zest this
morning when Chief O'Hare received
an anonymous letter which is thought
by the police to have been written by
the mysterious "Sadie" who was al
legged to have been the aid of tine pro-
lessor while he was working in Ke
nosha. The letter is postmarked "Chi-
cago" and on the last page is pasted a
picture of very handsome girl. There
is not great deal Of information in
the letter and it evidently was written
by woman The letter insists that
Sadie might be in many places, but
suggests that the police might get
something to their interest if they
went to boarding house south of
Libertyyille, ILL.,, if they went to a
house on Armitage avenue in Chicago
or went to a number in the center
of Kansas City, Mo. The chief believes
that Sadie is trying to have little
sport with him and that the excitement
of the chase appeals TO her sufficiently
for her to send him her picture and
urge him to get busy with few leads
as to the manner of the chase being
thrown in. IF the picture enclosed is
the picture Of the woman sought it is
certain that the Kenosha police have
to deal with very beautiful woman
and her work with the professor has
shown that she is just as clever as
she is good looking. Chief O'Hare has
accepted the challenge and is now hav-
ing the police in various cities make
visits to the numbers with view of
finding ''sadie. =

|CLA|M BIG LOSS IN CABBAGE
Facilities Furnished by the ST. Paul
Road are Entirely Inadequate to the
Demands Of the Shippers at the
Present Time

-Four hundred farmers engaged in
the raising of cabbage ana ~ngaA ueets
in the neighborheod of the village Of
Somers have sent pet1C1on 40 the
railroad commission of WISCONSIN ue-
handing that the commission oruer rne
Chicago, Milwaukee and st. gaul Rail
way Company to provide better ship
ping facilities at the village of Som
ers. It is declared that at the present
time the company's facilities for hand
ling the cabbage and beet crops at
Somers are entirely inadequate and that
as result Of conditions the farmers
will lose thousands of tons of cabbage
and beets on account of the fact that
they are not able to get them to mar
ket. State Senator Isaac T. Bishop is
the leader in the movement to take
the matter before the commission.
The company he declares has only a
little over a hundred yards of track
facilities at Somers for the handling
Of these big crops and that last night
forty carloads of cabbage and beets
were left uncovered on the roadway on
account Of the fact that it was i'm
possible to load them on the cars.
The senator when in kenosha declar-
ed that 5000 tons of cabbage and heets
would be a complete loss to the farm
ers this year for the simple reason
that it is impossible to ship them out
of the village.
The one road leading to the tracks
where the cabbage and beets may be
loaded is SO muddy that the wagons
sink to the hubs and it is absolutely
impossible for tho farmers to handle
their crops with anything like reason
able dispatch. On last Sunday morn
ing after a bitter complaint on the
part Of the shippers the railway COM
pany brought in great bunch of la
borers and clearing the mud to one
side Of the road they brought in seven
teen cars Of gravel and dumped it on
the road adjoining the switch track
but this made only a narrow road and
it is claimed that the conditions have
been made worse rather than better.
The people at the village are demand
ing that the park about the St. Paul
station be eliminated and that the
ground now occupied by this parked
space be used fer switch tracks and
that the company at least double the
amount of tracks used for handling the
two crops. Even with this change it is
declared that it will be impossible to
handle all the crops, but they declare
that this will greatly improve condi-
tions.
Officials for the railway company
have SO far declined to put in added
switch tracks on the ground that the
claim for service at the village is small
during the greater part of the year and
that the tracks would be a dead loss
to the company save during the month
of October when the heavy shipping of
cabbage aud beets makes the village of
Sonlers q decidedly important point.
Between two and three hundred wagon
loads of the cabbage and beets are
now being shipped from Somers daily.
1t is declared that every raiser of
beets and cabbage in that section Of
the county has signed the petition to
the railroad commission.

WELL FITTED FOR HIGH PLACE
Racine Jurist has Hearty Support Of
Many Leading ourists in the State
and is Considered a Logical Candi-
date for the Position.

Members Of the bar in the southern
tier of counties in the eastern district
of Wisconsin are unanimous in the en-
dorsement of Judge Ellsworth B
Belden. circuit judge for the first Wis
consin circuit, for the appointment tx
the United States bench to succeed the
late Judge Joseph V. Quarles who wa:
laid at rest in the Kenosha cemetery
on Tuesday.
The movement in favor of Judge
Belden is a spontaneous one and nj
other candidate has been suggested
from the members of the bar or from
the bench in this section of tho dis
trict. For some time Judge Belder
has been regarded as the logical sue
cessor to Judge Quarles on the bench
in the eastern district of Wisconsin
but many of the old friends of Judge
Quarles in Kenosha and Racine coun
ties had hoped that he would round
out at least ten years on the bench.
Judge Belden is in the very prime
of life and he unites all the attributes
that go 10 make judge valuable fol
the people. He is a native of Wiscon-
SIN having been born at Rochester Ill
Racine county, May Is, 1866. He was
educated in the common schools, at the
Rochester Academy and later entered
the University of Wisconsin, graduating
as a member of the class of 1856. He
had the honor Of being the youngest
student to whom the state university
had granted degree at that time.
Before attending the university he
had begun the study of law in the
office of his grandfather, the Hon. Philo
Belden for many years county Judge
of Racine county, and leaving the uni
versity too young to be admitted to
practice law in Wisconsin, he returned
to the Office of his grandfather and
later entered the practice OF law in
Racine. He was elected to succeed his
grandfather as county Judge Of Racine
county in April of 1889 and in Septem-
Der of the same year he took the du-
ties Of the office on the resignation Of
Judge Philo Belden. He remained in
the office of county judge Of Racine
county until 1902 when he was named
to succeed the late Frank n. Fish as
circuit, judge Of the first district
His high services on the bench have
shown that he is peculiarly Of the
judicial temperament. Nearly all of his
working life has been spent on the
bench and he is one of the few men
on the bench who has grown and
broadened by his dealings with the
law from the standpoint of the Judge.
AS circuit judge Judge Belden has won
the highest plaudits Of the bar. At
the time of his first election he was

POINT OUT COUNCIL ERROR
Annual Report of the Expenditures of
the Board is Ready to be Presented
70 the Council at the Next Regular
Meetings

T'he board of education took formal
action to urge the council not to amend
the city charter at the meeting held
on Tuesday evening and the adoption
of the resolution was the principal
business Of the meeting the remainder
of the meeting being given over to
routine work. The resolution which
was adopted unanimously was as fol
lows:
Resolved: That our splendid public
school system which has been built up
under the provisions of the special
charter of Kenosha, owes its excellency
at least in part to the fact that the
board Of education is an Independent
body, with authority to demand from
the city council the funds necessary to
carry OH the schools. We believe that
the attempt of the council to adopt
certain sections of the general charter
law, whereby tho coulc. would have
the right to determine the Gmount to be
raised for school purposes would be a
step backward and would seriously en-
danger the welfare Of the schools"
The annual financial report of the
schools prepared by the office OF the
superintendent was presented to the
board and directed to be forwarded to
the common council The report shows
that the schools during the year and
tnree months covered by il cost inc
city close to $4,000. The report in
detail follows:

Other stations overlooking Maine forests
are contemplated by New Hampshire. In
return, Maine wardens watch for fires in
New Hampshire from the Aziscoos noun
tain station in Lincoln plantation, Oxford
county. A system Of reversing telephone
tolls distributes the expense equitably."
FINANCIAL STATEMENT.
The financial statement for the Maine
forestry department is in part as follows:
SIN the two years past, which is the first
period since the incorporation Of the
Maine forestry district, there has been
available under the act assessing q mill
and half on the valuation Of the wild
lands the sum of e63, 1854 for each year.
OF the amount expended the largest item
is for patrolling, and that is ss 1t should
be, following the old maxim that an ounce
Of prevention is worth pound OF cure, as
every dollar expended in patrolling and
extinguishing incipient fires found by
such patrolmen undoubtedly saves thous-
ands OF dollars Of damage which would
accrue il the small fires were swept into
CONGREGATIONS.
1.-THE money expended for the construc-
tion and equipment Of the lookout sta
tions and the purchase of tools for fight
ing fires, which for the two years has
amounted to $19, $685. 5, must be considered
in the light Of permanent improvement,
as with the proper care which the depart
ment is bound to give them, they will
last for two years. A few more stations
may have to be constructed and more tools
purchased before the district is fully
equipped, but it is not expected there will
be another period of two years when
charges against these two accounts will be
large.
SIN the matter of extinguishment of
fires, no estimate OF the exact amount that
will be required can be made, and one year
must necessarily differ from another as is
shown by the record of the two seasons
past. In 1909 the amount charged to ex-
tinguishment OF fires was 310,944.8O, while
in 1910 the total expended under that head
was only q, 1854. There will remain an
unexpended balance for the two years Of
about $4,000

A physician who made a speciality Of
stomach troubles, particularly dyspepsia,
after years of study perfected the formula
from which Rexal Dyspepsia Tablets are

Our experience with Rexall Dyspepsia
Tablets Ieacs US to believe them to be the
greatest remedy known for the relief Of
acute Indigestion and chronic dyspepsia.
Their ingredients are soothing and heal
ing to the inflamed membranes of the
stomach. They are rich in pepsin, one Of
the greatest digestive aids known to
medicine. The relief they afford is almost
immediate. Their use with persistency
