COUNCIL IS SLOW TO FOLLOW
Members Insist That Engineer Alvord
Must be Consulted Before Any Such
Radical Changes in the Plan for the
Outlet are Adopted.

Engineer Wisener, chief of the staff
of engineers Of the drainage district
in Chicago, has filed with City Engineer
August Baltzer his opinion as to the
remedy for alleged troubles arising over
the Kenosha intake and if his report
is to be followed by the council it
will be necessary to make many
changes.
The report is lengthy one covering
five pages of type written matter and
in it the engineer goes into the history
of the sewer and takes up the condi-
tions as they are today. He asserts
that in his opinion the present outlet
is not suited to the sewer and he holds
that it is certain that the outlet will
be nuisance to surrounding property
unless some changes are made and
the plans altered. He holds that if the
present plan of building the outlet is
carried out that plans should be made
to cover the outlet so that it might be
covered with dirt and sod and thus
remove any possibilities Of it becoming
nuisance.
The engineer claims that he has care
fully studied the flow of the sewer and
that he feels certain that there will be
much stagnant water and sewage left
on the floors Of the outlet under the
present plan. The sanitary pipe idea
does not seem to appeal strongly to
Mr.. Wisener and he suggests that the
plan be changed so as to eliminate the
elaborate outlet at the shore line and
that the eight foot sewer be built
straight on out into the lake TO such
point that it would be entirely sub
merged in the water He holds that
this could be done very easily and that
the necessary changes would be the
building of pier or breakwater at, the
end of the sewer. He holds that this
breakwater would hold the outlet of
the sewer in place and protect It from
storms and that at the same time t
would form protection for the shore
line and make pier that could be used
for the landing of pleasure boats. The
engineer asserts that this plan has been
followed successfully in Chicago and
at other points along the lake.
The suggestions of the engineer pro
vide for such radical changes in the
plans that it is probable that the coun-
ell will be very slow to act on them
without first having a conference with
Engineer John w. Alvord who design
ed the outlet. Mr.. Alvord it was stat
ed today would be in Chicago by thelat-
ter part of the week and il is thought
that he can be present at the meeting
of the council on next Monday evening.
No special meeting of the council
will be called to act in the matter, but
in the meantime work has been stopped
on the outlet. The engineers seem to
think that it wonld be possible to carry
out the plan suggested by Mr.. Wisener
at a minimum of expense and that the
outlet as he proposes would not cost a
great deal more than the one now plan.
ned. P. w. Galloway of Racine, who
has the sub contract for the outlet, has
put in work valued at about $4,000 and
all Of this work would have to be
abandoned if the new plan was adopt

ATTENDANCE SETS RECORD
Board Approves the Action of the
Teachers Committee in Naming New
Teachers Routine Business Holds
Session Late.

Contractors for the new addition to
the Frank school will be called on to
settle with the board of education for
any delay in the completion of the
building This was the decision reach
ed by the board at its meeting held on
Tuesday evening and both contractors
and architect have been notified that
the board will claim the payment of the
penalty named in the contract for every
dav that the building remains uncom-
pleted after the day named in the con-
tract.
The work has now been held mp for
three weeks on account Of the fact
that the contractor has not been able
to get the iron and steel. 1t was an
nounced, however, that the work on
the old rooms of the building was go
ing forward and the contractor declared
that all of the present rooms in the
building would be ready for the use of
days. This will make possible the re
adjustment of students in the Frank
school building and will in a measure
relieve the crowded condition OF the
schools throughout the city. Other
work on the building will be rushed
and the declaration of the board mem
bers that the penalties will be collect
ed will undoubtedly result in the build
ling being completed on tiqe, ihi2si is
the first time that the board has in
sisted on the enforcement of a penalty
contract.
The contract for the plumbing work
in the new addition was let to Charles
a. Goodman his bid of $3,69775 being
5000 lower than that of any other
bidder.
Superintendent Mary D. Bradford
made report to the board showing
that the number of children registered
in all the schools on the first two days
was 3,097, this being a larger number
than registered during the entire school
year just closed. The high school has
registration of $50 for the first two
days as compared with total regis
tration for last year of 303. The larg-
est registration is at the Columbus
school where the totol number reaches
TAI, the largest ever known in grade
school in Kenosha.
The board was notified that the show
er baths had been installed in the Ke
nosha high school and the work was
accepted by the board.
Planning on a complete revision Of
the bookkeeping methods OF the city
schools Commissioners Walter Burke
and George G. Curtis were named to
devise new plan for the records of
the board and full set of books will
be installed in the offices of the super
intendent. The new books will be of
the most modern and approved plan for
keeping records of schools and the
minutest detail of the work of the
schools will be closely followed.
The action Of the teachers commit.
tee in selecting teachers to take the
place Of teachers who had resigned was
approved by the board. There was the
usual large amount of routine business
and the meeting did not adjourn until
after ten O'Clock.

APPEALS TO MAYOR FOR HELP
Mrs. A. Warner Sums Up Her Graces
and Calls on the GaIlantry OF the
Kenosha Men to Make Provision for
Her.


The gallantry of Kenosha men has
been appealed to- Mrs. A. Warner, an
attr etive widow 81 years of age now
living in st. Louis, is seeking home
in Kenosha and she wants to come to
Kenosha as a bride. Friends returning
from Kenosha have told her so much
about this and other cities of Wiscon-
sin that she has decided that she can
never attain the pinnacle of happiness
until she is the wife of Kenosha
man. Knowing no one in Kenosha Mrs.
Warner has done the next best thing.
She has appealed to the mayor of the
city to find her a husband.
In a letter received by the mayor
this morning the st. Louis widow pours
out her desire for a romance with Ke-
nosha on the other end of the line and
it is up toethe men of Kenosha to make
good. Mayor Scboley just at present is
confined to his bed with rh simatism
and unable to get out and hustle for
the widow, but he has turned her letter
over to the chief of police and has Civ
en- the chief instructions that as he
values his job he must labor to secure
a husband for the young widow. The
chief has exhausted the marriage
chances in the department. and has been
forced to appeal to the people of the
whole city.
In order that 40 one may buy cat
in bag the chief has made public the
modest request of Mrs. Warner just as
she wrote it to the mayor. Tt follows:

Cantilever Bridge RemodeIed.

Last Thursday morning the Missouri Valley Bridge company, having the work of constructing the central pier under the big cantilever bridge of the Santa Fe at Topock, began the work of cutting the cantilever span and mak- ing a double span of the river. The work is to take several days and during that time no engines are to cross the bridge. To obviate the handling of trains with locomotives across the bridge a large string of fiat cars are to be used to shove the trains over the bridge where the locomotives will be attached and take the trains to their destinations. Kingman is the first place east of the bridge where oil can he had and here the locomotives are maintained. When a train is taken to the bridge the engine returns to King man until called upon to take a train east, when it goes light to Topock and returns with the train. Owing to the heavy washouts in New Mexico no trains passed hingman from Wednes- day night until last evening, the east bound trains also having been held west of Needles by washed out tracks.
 This cantIlever bridge Was one of the great bridges of the world, holding first place in span. The old Firth of Forth bridge in Scotland, was the greatest bridge until the Needles bridge was put in about twenty years ago. The change in the character of the bridge was made necessary by the great weight of the new type of freight engines now in use on the Santa Fe. Under these massive engines the bridge became unsafe and DO attempt was made to cross the latest model of the compound engines to the California side.

Practic- ally all the vein matter horns gold, but that the rich streak has gone out of the shaft. As no walls have been found it is probable that this streak has passed over to one of the walls. A crosscut will be run to get to the walls of the vein. The lode is the same as the c. O. D. and shows the same general characteristics, although the ore carries a larger percentage of gold.
