Charge Get Six Months.
August Baltzer,
City Engineer.


Mary Lasota and Kaostin Alliszowik
arrested on Thursday evening on
charges of statutory nature, pleaded
guilty. in the municipal court on
Friday afternoon and Judge Randall
imposed fine of 800 and costs in each
case. In default Of the payment of the
fines both the man and woman went to
jail for term of six months. The
four little children of the woman APP
piled to the court this morning for pro-
lection and arrangements were COM
pleted during the day to have the
children taken to an asylum for child
rem III Milwaukee. The oldest of the
children, a girl twelve years old, de-
clared that she did not care to see
her mother and would much prefer
to have the state take care of her.

There is nothing for the board of
education or the common council to do
but accept the ruling Of the state de-
partment of factory inspection in re-
gard to the high school building and
forbid the use of the auditorium or
any other part of the building where
te children will be in the slightest
danger until new roof is put on and
any other repairs which the state in
spectors may consider necessary made
and the building pronounced absolutely
safe. Neither the members of the
board nor the parents of the children
in the rooms in the school are disposed
to take any chances of catastrophe
After the board has provided the ways
and means for making all safe and
putting the building in condition to
pass inspection by the state factory
inspectors it can turn its attention to
finding out who is responsible for the
defects in construction. Somebody is
to blame. Here are defects that will
cost the city thousands of dollars to
remedy and the board should conduct
a rigid investigation to ascertain who
is to blame for them. Certainly the
taxpayers paid enough money to get
building that would stand up for a
reasonable length of time.

Inc stone is very good quality,
clean and OF proper size, and the most
OF the sand which we, so far, have re-
celved, has been all right, with the ex-
eeption of few loads, which has
proven to be little finer than the
specifications called for, but by mixing
it up with the coarser stuff, we secured
sand that will meet the requirements.
The matter of settling the water
proposition on Fremont avenue, has. so
far, not been settled, but I expect that
a settlement will be reached shortly
between the Chicago Brass company,
and the contractors of the sewer.
Very respectfully,
August Baltzer,

Board Plans to Repair Cen.
trail School Building Just
as Soon as Possible
NO DANGER FOR STUDENTS

/. ~
The board of education met in special
session at the city hall on Friday even
ing and decided to act at once on the
complaint of the state board of factory
inspection in regard to the condition
of the Central school building. The
building will at once be examined by
architects and contractors and the
building and grounds committee was
given power to act in the matter. An
estimate of the cost of the work will
be secured at once and presented to
the board at a special meeting to be
held on Tuesday evening. The mem
bers of the board discussed the condi-
tion of The building and it was the
unanimous sentiment of the members
that the school should be made safe
regardless of the cost to the board.
The demand for an auditorium at the
high school is so great that it would
be almost impossible to get along with
out the pig room ana the commit
tee has been instructed to have the
plans for repairing made so as to in
sure the use of the big hall. The mem
bers Of the board have no idea Of the
cost Of the work to be done, but it
will probably be several thousand dol
lars. There is one thing certain and
that is that the members of the board
will not permit the building to be open
ed for the reception of the children
until they are assured that it is en-
tirely safe. The committee is hopeful
that the changes demanded by the
state board can be completed before
the opening of the regular school term.

The Kenosha baseball team went
scooting for tail end place in the Lake
Shore league on Sunday afternoon
when Haag's Colts dropped two games
to the West Parks Of Milwaukee at
Athletic Park in Milwaukee and now
only single game separates Kenosha
from the last place in the league which
has been held down by Racine since
the opening of the season.
The Parks won the first game by a
score of Z to 2 and while the Kenosha
boys showed up little better in the
second game the best they could get
away with was n defeat by a score of
z to 6. Benz, the Milwaukee pitcher
held the Kenosha hitters safe during
the first game and in the second game
Lewis and Van Vie had a great pitch
er s battle, but Lewis got away with
the spoils of victory. The Kenosha
team made whirlwind finish in the
ninth inning Of the second game get
ting four runs, but the Parks came
back almost as strong and with
fusillade of hits came In with three
runs, enough to win the game.
The scores follow:

The complaints of the prevalence of
noxious weeds in all sections of the
city are about month late this year,
but they are none the less vigorous
for all that and good deal of damage
to surrounding property can be pre-
vented if the weeds are destroyed now.
The street commissioners now have an
opportunity to prove to the complain
ing property owners that their inter

does not end with the publication of
the noxious weed notice and they prom

It is estimated that the increased Il
cense fees on automobiles and motor
cycles will produce a fund OF over
100000 annually which is to be expend-
ed in highway improvement and there
will be few complaints from those who
pay the money as long as they are con
WINGED that it is expended wisely.

People With Prophecy of
Early Coming of Christ
DECLARATION HAS BEEN FILED

The second coming OF Christ will oc-
cur in November 1912, at Zion City,
Ill, according to prociamations issued
| Thursday by II. L. Burnette and John
Taylor of Zion. The immediate result,
he said, will be an end Of the leader
ship of Wilbur Glenn Voliva.
One copy of the proclamation was
filed with the recorder in the county
building at Chicago. Other copies
were fled at Waukegan, ILL.,, Milwaa-
kee Wis, and Detroit. Mich.
The formal prophecy states that the
coming of Christ will be ushered by q
high priest of the faith, whose Office
will correspond to that of John the
Baptist.
| Text of Unique Prophecy.
The text follows:
State of Illinois, City of Zion
Declaration:
Be it known unto Judah, and unto
Israel, and unto all the world! Before
the end of the year of our Lord nine
teen hundred and twelve, Jesus Christ,
the son of God, who was conceived of
the holy spirit and born Of virgin,
who was crucifed, was raised from the
dead and for nearly nineteen cent
uries has been our beloved advocate
at the right hand of God, our father
N heaven. will come forth from the
eternal throne, once again to teach and
preach the gospel OF healing, holy iv
irg and salvation unto every creature,
and to heal the sick of every affection.
Jesus will come in bodily form, first
to eight men, one a high priest, whom
God will orda;n for the occasion, and
seven men, to whom he will have COM
mitted the important preliminary work
of the restoration of Judah and Israel.
Revelation to Be in Zion.
Forty-1ive days later the Messiah of
Israel shall be declared unto the world
by the high priest chosen OF God, even
as the Christ was declared unto Israel
by John the Baptist at the Jordan,
nearly nineteen hundred years ago.
The Christ will be revealed in the
city of Zion, built by God Is foretold
Elijah as a preparation Of the way un-
to all who shall await his coming.
Even as it is written: 81 will remove
the iniquity of that land in one day, =
so the people of Zion who were pre-
pared to receive the Christ, and who
shall remain true to their holy cove
hant in these $500 days of sitting,
shall behold their city rise again into
a new glory of righteousness and
prosperity. Tie power of the Assyrian
shall come to naught at the manifesto
tion of God word: in that day shall
the false shepherds be cut off, and ye
shall invite every man his neighbor
under the vine and under the fig tree.
In witness of which we have set
hereunto our hands and seals this first
day of August, 1909

In this connection it is interesting to note that Dr. Remsen informed the Moss committee that the expenses of the members of the members of the Remsen board who appeared in the Indiana courts to testify in behalf ot Curtice Brothers and Williams Brothers. who are test ing the constitutionality of the h. diana anti-benZoatc of soda law. were paid not by the manufacturers interested. but by the department of agriculture. Secretary Wilson re fused to allow Dr. Wiley to testify in this case.

of Mccabe and Secretary Wilson to Oust Dr. Wiley.
 Muzzled, But Determined.
 As the Moss investigating commit tee pursues it's way the facts which have long been known to the in- siders are being revealed to the public. Ii has become patent that the talk of Wiley's attempted usurpation of power is the veriest twaddle; his insubordinatiOn" consisted merely of refusing to stultify himself at the behest of his superior officers. When Secretary Wilson went over to the benzoate-useTs he expected to carry with him the department of agri- culture forces horse. foot and dra goons." but he reckoned without the hard-headed Wiley. The latter had decided against benzoate of soda and while Secretary Wilson was able to eTectually muzzle him and to deprive h5m of practically all the power which congress intended to invest in his bureau. he was not able to make Wiley reverse himself. Wiley stood pat with the American Med ieal association, the association of dairy and food commissioners, the American institute of hOmeopthy, and other organizations behind him. He was therefore marked for slaughter and as a first step Solicitor Me Cabe and Associate Chemist Dunlap joined hands and controlled tho board of food and drug inspection. Then came the Denver convention and for weeks Solicitor McCabe toured the country arranging for delegates favorable to the preserva- tive. Secretary Wilso was on hand and the cheap political methods em- ployed by the representatives of the department Of agriculture in behalf of benzoate of soda were extensively featured in the Denver newspapers and scandalized the convention to such an extent that some of the delegates refused 10 vote. 4 resolu- ton endorsing the Remsen boards report was finally forced through

SHATTUCK- ARIZONA


 (Written in Bisbee by George L.
 Walker, of the Boston Commercial )
 Shattuek Arizona is now employ ing only about IS men on develop ment work, and some of these are devoting a portion of their time to the retimbering of old stopes and drifts. There is a considerable ex- pense at a mine like the Shattuck even when it is idle. The drifts and stopes must be taken care of or they will cave.
 Only such orc as is taken out in development work, a car now and then. is shipped. As nearly as I can learn the management is undo- cided as to the future policy It may wait for a higher price of copper and then resume production on a larger scale than before. or it may decide to build a small smeiter and treat tis own ores.
 So far the Sbattuck has shipped approximately 90.000 tons of ore. Its shipments last year and in the early months of this, about 70,OO0 tons of ore, averaged 15 per cent copper. and showed the company a net profit of nearly S1,50O.000. From this three dividends of S1 per share each were paid on the company s 550.000 share capital, a total Of S1.050.00
 The reason for last years ship ments and dividends was a feeling ha -r they should have some return on their investment They had devei- oped large assets and it was very proper to turn a portion Of them into cash and divide the profits. There is no good reason for the be- lief. entertained by many, that the insiders made the shipments ana paid the dividends with the object in view of selling their stock to the public.
 The Shattuck is a remarkably rich mine While the amount of ore act ually blocked out is not large, it is probable that several hundred thou sand tons, averaging around 2 per cent, could be mined from the area already partially prCspected and de veloped without sinking any deeper.
 The Sbattuck owns four claims and two fractions, about so acres of ground. Less than half or it has been prospected The shaft is down only 800 feet and very little drift ing has been done from the lower levels. r has been estimated that there Is still 40,000 tons of the high grade, 15 per cent ore, left iu the mine. In addition to this a great deal of , to per cent ore is show ing in the workings at various points; but the character of the ere deposits are such irregular punches, kidneys and beds, that the tonnage can neither be measured nor estimated with an approach to ac- ss,;;:-s ss;;.:-.ss..essa, esa
 There is no possible doubt that the Shattuck is a very valuable prop erty. It is equipped with q good hoist and an aerial tramway extend ing to ore bins at the railroad. l. can ship ore again, make money and pay dividends whenever the manage ment chooses.

 WASHINGTON. Aug. l4.-Whethcr the association Of national and state dairy and food commissioners at it's next annual convention, which will be held in Duluth this month, will again take up the question of ben zoate of soda, remains to be seen. The state officials are almost entire ly in sympathy with a genuine en- foreement of the pure food laws in- oluding the prohibition of zenzoate of soda. but at present. for the most part are afraid to take action against it because of doubt as to whether the courts will sustain such action while the federal government adheres to it's attitude
