STOPS CoULoN FIGHT.
Sheriff Stahl Refuses to Grant Permit
for Fight for December 18th.

Sheriff A. f. Stahl put the Indian
sign on the Chicago boxing promoters
who had planned to pull off fight
card in this city on Dec, 18th Wednes-
day afternoon when he refused to is
sue permit for fight between John
ny Coulon, the -bantam-weight cham
pion and George Kitson. All ar
rangements for the fight had already
been made, but no permit had been
secured and when the promoters APP
piled to the sheriff for the permit on
Wednesday it was fatty refused.
"The fight is off and that is all there
is to it" said the sheriff. "We
thought the Chicago promoters under
stood conditions in Kenosha but it is
evident that they still believe that this
city can be made the dumping ground
for shows barred out of Chicago.''
The promoters are completely up in
the air and they may arrange to take
the show to Racine if the mayor and
sheriff in that city win permit the
bouts.

TRUCKS ARE MADE A FEATURE
Kenosha Companies Expected to Have
Large Exhibits at Annual Chicago
Show of Automobiles Being
Watched with Interest by Cities.

Last February's successful display
of motor trucks and delivery wagons in
Chicago will be exceeded in size and
Importance, and no doubt inF attend
ance, by the exhibition to be held the
second week of the Twelfth 4 Annual
Chicago Automobile Show, February 5
to 10. Seventy different manufactur-
ers of complete vehicles and one
hundred and thirty-eight makers of
motor car parts and accessories have
already contracted for space, with the
opening still more than two months
ahead. Additional applications are be-
ing made from week to week, although
the Chicago show list now exceeds the
combined lists of commercial vehicle
exhibitors at the two shows to be held
in New York in January.
Interest in the commercial motor
vehicle is growing rapidly, and pre-
dictiOns are freely made, in the trade
and out, that this branch of the auto
mobile, industry will in few years ex-
ceed in Importance the pleasure car
business. Largely as a result of last
winter 5 exhibition, it is believed, the
number of commercial motor vehicles
in use in Chicago increased thirty five
per cent in the four summer months
this year. With the advance of winter
weather, when ice and snow often
paralyze horse traffic, and the stimuli
taneous rise in price Of hay and feed,
this rate of increase is likely to be-
come even larger. Experiences of horse
owners during the excessively hot
weather last July had telling effect
that is counted on by truck makers to
be reflected in the interest taken by
business men in the coming exhibition
Practically all Of the largest and
most prominent makers of industrial
and commercial motor vehicles will
have representative exhibits at the
show. These will include a score of
makes that are new to the public,
never having been exhibited before at
any of the national shows, and many
entirely new models brought out by
we'll known companies for 1912 to
adapt their lines to a wider range of
requirements as to load capacity. Be,
sides the usual types of delivery
wagons and trucks Of from 500 pounds
to ten tons capacity, there will be a
good representation of vehicles for
special purposes, such a motor fire APP
paratus, patrol wagons, ambulances,
hearses, tractors for hauling plows and
other farm machinery, dump trucks for
contractors use, trucks fitted with
power winches for heavy hosting, and
self-emptying coal and lumber trucks.
AS usual, the show will be held I'M
der the auspices of the National AS
ISOLATION Of Automobile Manufacture
ers, and will be managed by S. A..
Miles The commercial display will
follow the pleasure car show and have
the benefit of the elaborate decora-
tions which, it is promised, will be a
departure from the schemes of former
years.

FIRENEA LAUDED BY OFFICIALS
Thirty Members of the Official Family
OF the City Join in Merry Reunion
With Men at Central Engine House.
Many Respond to Toastss

/ The official family of the city had
a real family reunion on Wednesday
evening when the mayor, the city clerk
and all the members of the city eoun-
ell, the city engineer, the cher and
assistant chief of police, members of
Ithe police and fire commission sat down
ITO turkey dinner given at the Cen
tral Engine House with the members
Fof the central fire detail and Chief
lsermann as the hosts of the evening.
The dinner was the most successful
thing of the kind ever known to of
fetal Kenosha and memories Of it will
linger long with the thirty guests who
were present.
The long tables at which covers were
laid for nearly fifty guests including
the members of the fire department
were spread in the living room of the
firemen and garnished as they were
with chrysanthemums and all the dec
orations so familiar to Thanksgiving
time they presented a beautiful pict-
ture. The dinner was one of the old
fashioned Thanksgiving dinners that
made New England famous and there
was nothing lacking. The feature was
the six big turkeys cooked to turn
and with them came all the delicacies
of the season. The fremen were most
gracious in serving the members of the
party and they showed that they
were just as good in the roll of a
white aproned waiter as they were re-
nowned as fire fighters.
After the dinner was over Alder
man c. f. Stemm, former mayor and
formerly chief of police, acted as
toastmaster for the evening. Mayor
M. J. Scholey responded to the toast
:" Our City," Alderman Peter Pirsch,
president of the council, responded to
the toast "The Fire Department and
paid high tribute to the members Of
the Kenosha department., declaring
that Kenosha fremen were superior to
any to be found in the state. Alder
man w. 7. Marlatt responded to the
toast "Ten Years of Development in
Kenosha," and John Bruins of the
police and fire commission, responded
to "The Commission and the Depart
ment.' Alderman Joseph G. Rhode
responded to the toast "The City s
Finances and the list of toasts clos
ed with a response by Chief Isermann
on the part of the department. In his
short talk the chief declared that one
of the most interesting features of the
work of the fremen was the co-opera-
ton shown by the members of the
Icouncil. He declared that the men
under him had been tried and found
worthy of the confidence of the peo-
pie and that after visiting hundreds
of departments he could say with GER
tainty that Kenosha had fire depart
ment second to none in the state.
After the toasts were over the mem
bers Of the party retired to the front
rooms of the engine house where a
musical program was rendered by Prof.
Charles Binninger who brought into
service his "squeeze box" The even
ing ended with rousing cheers for the
fremen.
The annual dinner was success
from every standpoint and the COM
mittee in charge of it are entitled to
high praise.

BOATMAN DICK.

Mother, I'm ready for another SAIL
All the morning Dick had been max
ing boats out of pine bark.
"This is the best one of ALL" said
mother, as she cut a three cornered
piece of paper and slipped it on a
toothpick The toothpick just fitted
in the tack-hole Dick had made at
one end of the boat.
"And can't you take me to Rock
Stream now, mother" Dick pleaded.
mot in the rain, little boy! Wait un-
til a sunny day"
"Then may I sail my boats in the
bathtub?''
eff you will remember to take them
out of the tub when you are through
playing"
For a long time the fleet of boats
sailed round and round under the high
white walls of the tub. A hurricane
would send them flying when Dick
famed too hard; then they would
stay quiet waiting for breeze.
Supper time came, and Aunt Polly
rang the bell at the bathroom door.
"Pll be back in minute" thought
Dick, looking back at the boats in the
tub.
But his custard was so good that the
little boy stayed a long time at the
supper table; then mother said there
was time for a chapter of ''Uncle Re-
mus" before bedtime
Out of doors the wind was rising.
Presently great gust came in the
open bathroom window.
What fun" sighed the naughty
wind, as he tossed the tiny boats to
and fro.
Presently there was not a single
cleaning white sail left on top of the
water.
Bedtime, Dick" said mother, as she
finished the chapter from "Uncle Re.
mus"
Then Dick remembered his boats.
Twill you please come to the bath.
room with me, mother" asked the lit.
tie boy, I'm very sorry I left my
boats in the tub"
But mother did not scold when she
saw how the wind had punished care
less Dick
Sailors never leave their boats in
the open sea, boy dear And when a
storm is rising, don't you know how
the boatmen hurry to safe harbor?'
Il s'pose they're all ruined" sighed
Dick, gazing sadly at the torn, wei
paper. ''It would be too much trouble
for you to cut new sails, lnother!"
But that night, after Dick was fast
asleep, a row of little boats, with
clean, dry sails, stood on the mantel
piece and waited patiently for the lit
tie boy to wake.

lone followed her in silence into the
plain little front room with the faded
carpet and worn furniture. 1T is a
heart-shaped locket," said the old
lady, standing before the young girl,
her voice vibrating with eagerness,

ter, made of diamonds"
Eyes, that's the one I found"
lone produced it from her purse, and
the old lady bounced upon it. After a
moment she pressed a spring, and
beckoned to the girl "That," she said
softly, lis the precious part
lone advanced and looked down.
The face of little boy smiled up at
her from the interior of the locket,
wreathed about by tiny golden
brown curl
"He was my only child" said the
old lady softly. cit is 40 years since

the withered cheeks which had not
been there when she entered, new
light in the faded eyes.
"I've had my reward already" said
the girl gently, "and it was liberal
one"

PRAYER SUSTAINED HIM.

Twenty years ago Andrew 10th, an
Austrian, was convicted of murder
and sentenced to the Western peni-
Tertiary in Pittsburg
On March 18 he was released, as
proof came to light of an alibi-he
was half a mile from the scene of
the crime when it was committed.
His innocence was proved by a
death-bed confession in Austria of the
man who was chiefly responsible for
his conviction.
The most remarkable thing about
Toth's Imprisonment was the way in
which he endured it. His life for
twenty years gives us blessed
glimpse of the golden ages Of faith.
During these twenty years" declare
the press dispatches, "he had uttered
very few words except in prayer.
His Rosary was his talisman, his
solace, his source of hope, and me-
dunn of strength. Lovingly and CRATE
fully holding those much used and
dearly priced beads, he declared, upon
his release from prison: These 1t
was that kept me from going insane.
They are worth more to me than a
million dollars" And that his Rosary
was worth more to him than earthly
possession becomes quite clear when
one notes the tone of forgiveness and
the spirit of Christian charity to which
he gave expression upon his release.

DON'T WORRY.

The too strenuous worker is more
apt to break down than the easy-going
person, and we would all travel a
long leisurely lane if left to choose
for ourselves. But unfortunately we
are not permitted any choice in the
matter. Most of us nowadays are
working, if not beyond our actual
strength, at least beyond our spirit
of willingness. We have more to do
than we feel we are able to do. In
order to get through with this sup
posedly submerging volume of work we
got at the whole days array Of duties
with rush. We mentally lift in ad-
vance the weight of every piece of
work arrayed against us and groan in
spirit. Still shouldering this crushing
mountain, We go excitedly from task
to task, working Historically until our
mental heat flames into over-excited
nerves and more vital force is expend-
ed in burst of tears and neartache
than would have suficed to do the
work twice over.
when I think of all I've got to do
today" is one of the familiar plants
of women, and to all such we
would say, don't think. Just begin at
the duty nearest to hand and get it
over. Then go on to the next and do
it as though it was the only task of
the day. 1t is amazing how that noun
tain load melts away. At recent
dramatic performance for charity a
young society man was suddenly call
ed upon in the absence of the principal
to lead an intricate figure upon the
stage. Totally unprepared, he allowed
himself not a moment for reflection
the breach had to be filed and he filled
it creditably because he took no
thought of it's difficulties. Unless we
would lead useless, thistledown lives,
drifting hither and yon, we must enter
courageously upon life of service
service for love, for duty, or for hui
manity-but service, and to go ahead
and act without estimating personal
strength or weakness is the surest
and pleasantest way to get a great
deal accomplished with the least drain
upon the nervous system.
There are those who in travelling
wear themselves out reading the
scheduled list of stops and checking
them off as they are made. They are
mentally travelling ahead of the en-
CINE and woefully exhausting them
selves thereby Such people simply
won't relax and they reach their jour-
news end physically worn out and not
one whit quicker than the man sitting
behind them who accepts the two
hours on the train as magnificent
opportunity to loaf with a clear con-
science. Unless you would invite the
breakdown incident to overtaxation
beware of the words, when I think
of all I have got to do today"

THE SHUT-IN SOUL.

In one of the famous lace shops of
Brussels there are certain retired
rooms devoted to the spinning of the
finest and most delicate lace patterns.
These rooms are altogether darkened,
save for the light from one small win
dow falling directly upon the pattern.
There is only one spinner in the room,
and he sits where the narrow stream
of light falls upon the threads that he
is weaving. "Thus," you are told by
your guide, "do we secure our choicest
products. Lace is always more deli
cately and beautifully woven when the
worker himself is in the dark, and
only his pattern is in the light" Does
not the same beautiful and mysterious
result appear in work of any kind,
when surrounding shadows compel
the toiler to fix his attention solely
upon the task in hand-the task upon
which falls the concentrated light Of
life? When a soul finds itself shut in
by dissapointments, trials, bereave-
ments, disciplines or physical limita-
tons, to it's divinely appointed task,
the one thing it is best fitted to do or
to teach in this world, how marvellous
ly the pattern is wrought! What new
power and beauty appear in both work
and character! That one small win
dow through which falls the light of
heaven, full upon our task is, how
often, the essential condition of high
est achievement!
