KENOSHA MAN A SUICIDE.
Edward Gore, Formerly of Kenosba,
Throws Himself in Front of Train.

Throws Himself III Front of Train.
kilograms received in Kenosha to-
day announce that the remains of a
man who committed suicide in Chicago
by throwing himself in front of an in
terurban train on the Illinois Central
road on Wednesday, have been identi-
fed as the remains of Edward Gore, a
former resident of Kenosha. The iden-
LITIGATION was made by Joseph Skiford,
a friend of the Gore family, who re-
sides in Chicago. Gore was formerly
employed as a buffer at the Simmons
plant and left the plant a little over
a month ago. At that time the mem
bers of the family, who had formerly
resided at 500 Fremont avenue, had ar.
ranged to go to Detroit to live, but
little had been heard from the mem
bers of the family since they left Ke-
nosha. 1t is said that Gore had been
acting in way that indicated great
mental strain before he left Kenosha
and il is thought that he committed
suicide in fit of temporary insanity.
no word has been received in Kenosha
as to the disposition of the body and
it is supposed that it win be buried
in Chicago. Gore is survived by wi
dow and several children.

GREAT ADVANCE FOR TEACHER
Mr.. Thompson Had Been in Kenosha
but One Year but Had Made
Splendid Record as Principal of the
High School Here.

Waukegan has taken from Kenosha
one OF the most capable managers and
teachers ever in the Kenosha high
school as at the meeting of the board
lot education at Waukegan last night
Oliver Scott Thompson, for the past
year principal of the Kenosha high
school, was elected superintendent of
the schools at Waukegan. There is no
doubt that he will accept the office
and it is expected that his resignation
will be filed with the Kenosha Board
of Education before the meeting this
evening in order not to embarrass the
board in securing new head for the
Kenosha school.
Mr.. Thompson is elected to succeed
Miss Miriam Besley, who has been at
the head CT the Waukegan schools for
number of years and who has been
known as one of the best women man
ayers of schools in the country! There
was no opposition to Mr.. Thompson
and he goes to Waukegan as the unani
nous choice of the board of education
of that city for the high position. The
position brings to Mr.. Thompson a
large increase in salary and opens for
him a wide field to extend his labors.
In addition to this it is particularly
pleasing to Mr.. Thompson on account
of the fact that he is returning to
head the schools of his native city.
Mr.. Thompson was born and raised in
Waukegan and was graduated from the
Waukegan high school. Later he was
educated at the University of Wiscon-
sin. He taught for three years at the
Indiana State Normal at Terre Haute
before coming to Kenosha to take
charge Of the high school here.
Principal Thompson had made good
in Kenosha. During the year he had
inaugurated many changes in the high
school which showed that he was a. man
of capacity and his election to the
post at Waukegan will be heard of by
the members Of the local board with
regret. At the time Mr.. Thompson
was spoken of for the superintendency
Of the Waukegan schools the members
of the Kenosha board gave him the
highest recommendations, but at the
same time they sought to have him
reconsider the matter and remain in
Kenosha. Mr.. Thompson was re-
elected as principal Of the ,Kenosha
schools at an increase in salary a short
time ago, but at that time it was I'M
derstood that he was seeking the high
er post in Waukegan.
The retiring principal Of the high
school has been very popular with the
students and with the teachers and has
won praise from the school patrons.
It is probable that the committee on
teachers will take immediate steps to
secure a successor to Mr.. Thompson
and already several candidates for the
position have been heard from. Super
intendent Mary D. Bradford and the
members of the board recognize the
Importance of this position and they
will seek to. secure the best possible
man to fill the vacancy.

Plans are being completed for the re-
opening of the enlarged summer home
Tor children under the auspices of the
Sisters of st. Mary located on Durkee
avenue just south of the city and it is
announced that the home will open for
the year on June 20. At that time
nearly two hundred children will be
brought up from Chicago and Kenosha
will become the principal summer camp
of the Chicago children. None of the
other summer homes about Chicago
which take care of children cover as
great range as the Sisters of st.
Mary Is home in Kenosha. As result of
canvass for funds for the home it has
been greatly enlarged. An infrmary
has been built, but the most note
worthy Improvement is the construc-
tion OF large and airy home for in
fants. This home will make it posi-
BILE for the Sisters to bring to Kenosha
sixty babies from Chicago and these
babies will remain along the lake shore
in Kenosha until the coming of the
cold weather in the fall. Every posi-
bic provision has been made for the
care Of the little babes and they will
range in age from few weeks to q
couple of years. Last year a few small
babies were brought to Kenosha, but
the experiment was not a great sue
cess as it was found that there was
no room to take care of the little ones
and it was impossible to care for them
in connection with the other children.
The babies for the most part are
the children Of working mothers in Chi
cage and the leaving Of the little ones
makes it possible for the mothers to
continue their work during the sum
mer Many Of these children will be
taken from places where it is impossi-
BILE for them to get proper care and it
is expected that the opening of the
Kenosha home for the babies will make
possible the bringing of health and
strength to many who would without
the home be forced to spend the heated
season in Chicago and under circum-
stances which would render practically
impossible the proper development of
the children.
There will be the usual number of
the older children and the plans are
being made for their care. Tie regular
school sessions will De held in which
the children will be given chance to
get instruction in the common branches
and in sewing and cooking. Later in
the year the annual picnic will be Civ
en- fer the parents and friends of the
children and at that time it is ex-
peeted that no less than FIVE hundred
people will come to Kenosha for the
day.
Chicago people have given large sums
of money to make possible the en-
largement of the home in Kenosha and.
it is expected that they will give liber-
ally toward the maintenance of the
home, but the greater part of the sup
port will be furnished by the people
of Kenosha who have taken kindly to
this charity in other years and it is
certain that it will receive the same
support this year.
The work of getting the home in
readiness for the coming of the child
rem is now well under way. With the
closing of Kemper hall the members of
the Sisterhood will hold their annu-
al retreat and at the close of the
annual period of devotion they will
give their time to arranging for the
coming of the little children.

the health of Mr.. Riley showed i'm

HOME CURE FOR
RHEUMATISM

Do not waste time nor take chances
OF becoming a cripple or helpless
sufferer from Rheumatism by trying
to cure the disease with external ap-
plications alone. Such treatment
sometimes gives relief from the
severe pain, or may reduce the
Inflammation of a swollen joint or
muscle, but the effect cannot be more
than temporary Each day the cause
is allowed to remain in the system
Rheumatism gets a firmer hold on
its victim. Purify your blood OF the
iuAarnmatory uric acid and then you
will cure the disease permanently.
The system will respond more quickly
and surely to S, S. S. than any other
treatment. This great blood purifier
possesses the penetrating qualities
necessary to drive out every trace Of
urate matter from the circulation and
build the blood up to nourishing
and healthful condition. Only pure
blood can overcome Rheumatism, and
S. S. S. surely creates pure blood.
Thousands have cured themselves OF
Rheumatism by using S. S. S., a
medicine made entirely Of roots,
herbs and barks; no harmful mineral
enters into its composition, and
S. S. S. is therefore safe for any one
to use. Write for our book on Rheu-
matism and ask for any special med
ical advice, No charge for either.
S. S. S, is sold at drug stores,
