TO APPOINT HIS ASSISTANTS
Several Very Good Offices are in the
Gift of the New Commissioner-Eirs
Kenosha Man in Office in Many
Years

Albert E. Kuolt Of Kenosha assumed
his new duties of Commissioner of
Banking for the state of Wisconsin at
Madison this morning having filed his
official oath Of office on, Monday even
ing. Commissioner Kuolt has not as yet
resigned his position as cashier Of the
Merchants and Savings Bank in this
city and for the present at least he will
make his home in Kenosha. When he
left for Madison on Tuesday evening
he stated that he would return to Ken
osha on Saturday and at that time it
is expeced that he will make some an
nouncement Of his plans for the future.
Mr.. Kuolt is the first Kenosha man
to hold an important Office at Madison
since E. G.. Timme gave up the office
of Secretary of State more than if
teen years ago and he is one of the first
men from the county to hold an import
ant appointive office under the state
cial life at Madison as in former years
he had been connected with the Office
of the Secretary of State, Commission
er of Insurance and had served in the
capacity of Assistant State Bank FIX
alniner under M. G. Bergh whom he
succeeds in office. The new Commits
sioner will have a number of appoint
ments to make but as yet none of these
has been made public. He will have
the right to name his own assistant
commissioner of banking and will have
the appointment of large number of
clerks and stenographers in the office
Of his department. 1t is possible that
some Of these offices will go to close
friends of Mr.. Kuolt in Kenosha but it
is not probable that any appointments
will be made until after the new COM
missioner has his plans fully matured.
The appointment Of Mr.. Kuolt seems
to be very satisfactory to the bankers
of the state and he has received many
letters from different bankers through
out the state urging him to accept the
appointment of the governor.
1t will of course be impossible for
Mr.. Kuolt to hold the state office and
at the same time remain cashier of the
Kenosha bank. President Robinson of
the bank has as yet made no announce
ment Of his selection Of a man to fill
the vacancy caused by the retirement
of Mr.. Kuolt but it is expected that
some changes will be made in the bank
within short time.

SEEK AID OF CHURCH
tuberculosis Day to Be Oh
served yChurches During
Week of April 80
PUBLIC MEETINGS ARE URGED

! April 30th has been set aside this
lyear as tuberculosis Day. and will
be observed in 100000 churches in the
country in manner similar to that of
tuberculosis Sunday" in 1910, when
over 10000 sermons were preached OIL
the prevention of consumption In this
first official announcement of the oc-
casion made by the National Associa-
ton for the study and prevention of
tuberculosis today, the leaders of the
movement state that they hope to en-
list all of the 100000 church mem
bers in the country.
In one respect tuberculosis Day will
differ from tuberculosis Sunday of
1910. Instead of requesting the church
es to give to the tuberculosis cause a
special Sunday service, the National
Association is going to ask this year
that meetings, at which the subject of
tuberculosis and it's prevention can be
discussed, be held on Sunday, April 30,
or on any other day near that date,
either in the week preceding or the
week following. "What we want, -
says DR.. Livingston Farrand, Executive
Secretary of the National Association
for the study and prevention of tuber-
culosis, in a report on this movement,
els to have this whole subject of tu-
berculosis discussed in all of the 200,-
| 600 churches of the United States at
as nearly the same time as possible.
! This does not mean that a stated SER
vice must be given over to this work,
though that might be desirable, but
that any minister. or other authority
whom he may invite, can present the
problem to his congregation before or
after his regular service, or on any
day within the week preceding or fol-
lowing April 30th.'
The NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. is planning
to gather statistics from thousands Of
ministers, showing how serious prob
lem tuberculosis is to every church.
These figures will show among other
things the number of deaths last year
from tuberculosis in the church congre-
cation, and the ways in which the pas
tors are called on to minister to suffer
ers from this disease. It is planned
| also to issue millions of circulars and
pamphlets on the prevention of tuber-
culosis, both from the national office
and from the headquarters of the $50
anti-tuberculosis associations who will
cooperate in the movement.

UP TO WAUKEGAN COUNCIL
Company Will Enter Kenosha From
West if Waukegan Declines to Grant
Terminal Rights for That City in
the Near Future

The Waukegan, Rockford and Elgin
Traction company which is planning
for the building Of spur Of its line
from Wilmot to Kenosha has presented
an application for a franchise to the
city of Waukegan and this seems to
indicate that Waukegan and not Ken
osha will be made terminal of the
road. It is possible that if the city of
Waukegan acts favorably on the pro-
posed franchise ordinance that the
plans of the company to build line in
this county will be abandoned. At
Wauxegan the contest will be one be-
tween the Chicago and Milwaukee and
the new company and it is said that the
council at Waukegan is inclined to be
favorable to the new company. The
promoters have not done a great deal
of work toward advancing the build
ing of the proposed lake region line in
this county more than to appeal to the
farmers along the right of way of the
proposed line and these men have ex-
pressed themselves as favorable to the
road. The plans Of the company as
given out some time ago provided for
the building of the line in Kenosha
county only with the understanding
that W. kegan would refuse an en-
trance of the company into that city
and for this reason the action of the
Waukegan council will be watched with
a great deal Of interest by the people
in the western part of this county. The
head of the new company is j. X. Orvis
former Salem man and it is said that
he has been able to get together large
amount of money for the building of
his road. Orvis has declared that he
will not be held up in his attempt to
secure terminal in Waukegan and 1T
the same time the former franchise for
the road was presented at Waukegan
the council of that city demanded that
the company pay the city $4,000 in
cash and agree to do lot of street inn
provement in order to get right of
way Orvis has already made several
visits to Kenosha and has interviewed
many of the members of the common
council here and has insisted that his
coming to Kenosha is dependent en-
tirely on the action of Waukegan off
Gals. Kenosha is being used as a whip
to bring Waukegan into line for the
new company Many people believe
that this will be as far as the line will
ever 60 in this county and that if a
line is built to the lake region it will
be up to some other company to build
it. A portion of the proposed line of
the company is now in course of con-
structiOn at Palatine, Ill. 1t is plan
ned as both passenger and freight
line and the freight feature seems to
appeal deeply to the people of Wauke-
gan. Waubegan is anxious to secure
a new freight line and this desire may
aid materially in getting the franchise
ordinance favorable consideration bv
the common council of that city.

Rood will speak in all the schools of
the city and will give public lecture
at the auditorium Of the high school on
the last evening of his stay in the city
Mr.. Rood is said to be a speaker of
great power and his talks to school
children have been attracting a great
deal of attention in all parts of the
state. The lectures are part of the
effort that is being made by the mem
bers of the Grand Army to stir greater
interest in patriotic questions among
the children of the state.

KEEP CHICKEN LEGS TWO YEARS
Price Charges That Matthias Has De-
clared That He was Chicken Thief
TOW is Stirred by Action Brought
in the Circuit Court.

The town Of Paris in the western
part of the county has been stirred to-
day by the announcement that Charles
W. Price one of the best known farm
ers in the town has brought an action
for SANDER against William Matthias
almost as well known in the western
part of the county. Attorney R. V,
Baker who represents Price in the ac-
ton declares that Price will ask for
$4,000 damages alleging that state
ments made by Matthias have damaged
his reputation in the town to that
amount. The suit gathers interest from
the fact that it is the outgrowth of>a
family feud which has been on in Paris
for several years and it is not improb-
able that other suits will be started
against other residents of the town be-
fore the Matthias suit is decided by the
courts. Mutterings of the court action
have been heard for months but it first
gained a>standing in court ON Saturday
afternoon when Matthias the defendant
was called before Judge Randall sit
ting as a court commissioner for exam
nation under section "4096.'' This
examination was held with a view of
securing facts on which to base the ac-
ton for SANDER. It was alleged by
Price that Matthias had circulated a
story that he had stolen chickens from
the Matthias coops. At the hearing
Matthias, declared thet the matter dated
back more than two years. Chickens
had been repeatedly taken from the
Matthias coops and one night Matthias
and his wife armed themselves and lay
in wait for the thieves. Just after
midnight man was seen about the
coops and Matthias declared that he
followed the man across the fields with
shotgun to the home of Charles Price
He declared that when the man ap-
proached the house that the Price dogs
bayed loudly but that after he had en-
tered the yard the dogs quit barking
and that the man who had been about
the cooT's on the Mathia, farm hal uu
~ to speak to them tc force them I.
go to their kennels. The hearing
brought out the fact tha. Matthias lad
told this story and he declared that
this was the only story he had tod III
regard to the stealing of his chickens
It was brought out that two yellow
legs which had formerly been the sup
port of chickens raised IL the town Ut
Paris were to be evidence in the case
These legs were secured at a Kenosha
butcher shop two years ago and have
been kept wrapped carefully in tissue
paper since that time awaiting the com.
ing of the action in court. The chick
en- legs are alleged to have been in the
keeping of a relative of Price.
The suit will probably come up for
trial at the March term of the Circuit
court and it will probably attract more
attention than any case ever connected
with the town of Paris.
