how the pendulum of fashion swings

SOUGHT FUND FOR EDUCATION
Patrons of the Young Woman Fail to
Receive the Publications and Ene In
vestigation is Being Made-May Do
AWAY With Book Agents.


the police against the working of I'M
licensed agents IN Kenosna mas brought
to light the fart that more than a
hundred Kenosha women may be the
victims of one OF the cleverest subscrip-
ton agents or one of the smoothest
-swindlers that ever worked in Kenosha.
These women ana they are all from the
fashionable districts of the tity have
paid over to ths agent hundreds of
dollars and in return they expect to
receive a well Known eastern publica-
ton. The police are not as yet ready
to declare that tie women of Kenosha
have been E'stung' but it is certain
that facts that have been gathered in
dieate that such il the fact.
The agent was a young woman and
she worked Kenosha for a term of
fur days claiming to be working for
3 Chicago bureau of the publication.
Her story was that she was seeking to
obtain money for a course in one of
the normal schools of the state and to
Ghis end she had been granted conces
sions by the publisher of the maya
zine which made 1T possible for her to
offer it at rate lower than the reg
hlar rate: The y'nkng woman was fair
of face and excee Magly clever with her
tongue and her I'd THROUGH ,Kenosha
seems to have been triunphal one
Il argues well for the interest Of Ke-
nosha women in the education of young
women that few of them turned the
young woman down and they contribut-
ed various sums from one to three dol
lars to her school fund. The magazines
have so far failed to arrive and let
ter sent to the Chicago Office of the
company brought the response that the
young woman was not known in that
office. The money was collected weeks
ago, but nothing has been heard from
the publishers. It is said that the same
young woman worked in Racine and
Waukegan, all three cities being work
ed in the same week.
The new order against agents is liza
BILE to interfere with the workings Of
one of the old time nuisances-the book
agent-and it is declare that strict
interpreted on of the order Of the po-
lice will put an end to all book agents
working in the city. For years book
agents have worked Kenosha without
being questioned as to their right or
license and it is probable that any eff
fort to stop their work will result in
the publishing houses starting an ac-
tion with view to carrying it to the
supreme court of the United States and
getting a decision from this highest
court as to the possible enforcement
of a license provision.
Chicago managers for number of
the companies affected by the ruling
came to Kenosha on Tuesday determine
ed to test the rule in the courts, but
when informed that warnings had been
issued to the people not to deal with
such agents and that such work would
be continually haassed by city investi-
cation several Of the men withdrew
their gangs from Kenosha and declared
that they would not return This
course was eminently satisfactory to
the officials of the city.
