TAXES COMING SLOW.
Returns Not Large Enough to Meet
Demands of School Board.

People in Kenosha are slow to pay
their taxes this year and of the levy
of $275,000 less than 100000 has thus
far been received by the city treasurer.
The last date for the collection Of the
taxes is Monday, Feb. 10th, and if not
paid by that date the added percentage
will be charged against all outstanding
taxes The treasurer IS making an eff
fort to get in money enough to meet
the demands OF the state taxes and
the demands of the board of education
for running expenses, but the tax pay
ers have been so slow this year that il
has been impossible TO get in money
enough to meet these items. There
will be no extension of the time for
paying taxes as the state law strictly
forbids such action being taken by the
common council.

failed to support her and that he dis
appeared in 1910 and that since that
time she has not been able to get any
trace Of him. Some time ago Mrs.
Wilder caused warrant to be issued
for Wilder charging him with abandon
ment, but the police have not been
able to get any trace of him to serve
the warrant. There are two children
in the family.

Relative of Mrs. Petersen
Meets Her on Street Cor
ner in Chicago Tuesday.
HAD EMPLOYMENT THERE

Mrs. Marie Petersen, who disappear
ed from Kenosha on last Saturday
night and for whom search was being
made in many cities, was found in
Chicago late Tuesday afternoon and
brought back to her home in Kenosha
Tuesday evening. Vigo Petersen, a
brother-in-law of the woman, had gone
to Chicago to aid other members of
the family in a search for the woman
and he was standing on a street corner
waiting for a car when his attention
was attracted to party of women
on the opposite corner. One of the
women looked familiar to him and go
ing over for an investigation be found
his missing sister-in.law. 1t had been
stated that Mrs. Petersen was slightly
demented, but she showed no signs of
mental weakness in Chicago. To her
brother-in-law she declared that she
had found a position in restaurant
and was waiting for a car to go to
her new place Of employment when she
was found. She admitted that since
her disappearance from Kenosha on
last Saturday night she had been in
Chicago and most Of the time had been
spent in searching for work.
After the return Of the woman to
Kenosha her relatives called on Sheriff
Stahl and asked that she be sent to
one of the state institutions. They de-
clared that she had been adjudieated
insane some time ago but search of
the records Of the county failed to re-
veal any authority for the removal of
the woman to any state hospital. 1t
is probable that an investigation into
the coadition of Mrs. Petersen will be
made in the county court late this af-
ternoon or tomorrow.

THINK DANCER PAST
Scarlet Fever Epidemic that
Threatened City Said to

BLAME VACATION FOR DISEASE

There is no longer any serious dan
ger from contagious disease and par
ticularly scarlet fever in the schools
of the city and we are glad to say
that the epidemic of the disease which
seemed to threaten Kenosha school
children has about run its course
This was the statement of Mrs. Mary
d. Bradford, superintendent of the
schools this morning and she stated
further that she had kept in close
touch with the situation and was con-
WINGED that the few cases Of scarlet
fever remaining in the city were be-
ing well taken care of. The Balm
school was regarded as a hot bed Of
the disease, but the quarantine system
Of the schools has been working well
in the past few weeks and it is now
declared that there is no danger in
the school.
cit seems to me, !" said Mrs. Brad
AolQ, G1dO GuC fUlUuOIo was largely
due to the holiday vacation. Children
who were sick during the vacation re-
turned to the schools without proper
quarantine and this made possible the
spread of the disease. &l every school
a student who has been sick for a
period of three days is forced to get
certificate from a doctor before he
| or she can return to school and with
this system it is almost impossible for
a scarlet fever patient to remain in
the schools.
Mrs. M. Elizabeth Stikel, the new
visiting nurse in the employ Of the city
| has aided materially in putting an end
to danger from the disease She has
given practically her entire time to the
maintenance of guarantees and her
work has been so successful that the
people in the foreign colonies have be-
gun to learn the necessity of quaran-
tines and they seem to be eager to aid
in maintaining them. Mrs. Stikel has
put the matter up to these people in
an entirely new light and they seem
to have changed from opposing quar-
antine to a spirit of hearty CO.
operation.
