GOING TO COMMISSION.
City May Join With Milwaukee Ave.
Property Owners to Get Cars to Stop

The people of Milwaukee avenue are
planning to appeal to the Railway Com
mission of the state to force the cars
of the Milwaukee Electric Railway and
Light Company to make stops en- Mil
waukee avenue and it is probable that
the common council will join the peo-
pie in this demand. The present meth
cd of operating the through cars is not
proving acceptable to the people of
the avenue and it is claimed that the
company is gaining absolutely nothing
in the time for operating the cars by
refusing to stop to take on and let off
passengers. Several Of the members of
the common council have declared them
selves ready to join with the property
owners in demanding a change in the
schedule and it is probable that the
demand will GO to the commission with
in short time.

Big Parade and Win Many Small
Prizes offered Sixteen Cities Vie
for Preference at Big Meet.

Eagles brought back all the honors OF
the state convention at GAINESVILLE on
Wednesday, when they reached home
early this morning, bringing with them
more than 5000 in cash prizes and a
handsome silk flag won by the degree
team in the ritualistic contest on We'd
nesday evening. It was real Kenosha
day at the state convention and only
few prizes got away from the three
hundred members of the Kenosha Aerie
who had gone to GAINESVILLE to take part
in the big g doins.' Kenosha outshone
every aerie in the state and was unani-
mously awarded the first prize of $3.50
for it's showing in the big parade in
which more than twenty aeries of the
order from all parts of Wisconsin were
entered. Kenosha had total of 267
men in the line, seventeen more than
Racine and forty-fve more than Mil
waukee. Racine got second place in
the parade and third was given to Mil
waukee. The Racine Aerie managed to
get one prize away from the winning
Kenosha men, securing the first cash
prize for uniforms. AZ that the Keno
sha men were only few points be-
hind,
There were seventeen bands took
part in the parade and nearly every
Aerie sending a marching club to the
convention city brought band along.
In addition to The grand prize for the
parade, the Kenosha boys got second
money for appearance in line, Jakey
Thomas was awarded the prize for be-
ing the smallest Eagle in the parade,
Fred Palmgreen grabbed down five dol
lars as the tallest Eagle and George
Rice of Genoa Junction, member of
the Kenosha Aerie, got the prize for
being the latest Eagle.
Great interest was taken In the con-
test over the ritualistic work and it
was fight of the field against Milwau-
kee. The Milwaukee team has been
declared to be the best drilled team in
the order in the United States and the
Kenosha team was ranked less than a
point behind them by the judges. The
Milwaukee team carried off the grand
trophy and the Kenosha boys We're
awarded the handsome silk flag offered
for second place.
The Kenosha members were the big
hit of the day and Kenosha is being
prominently mentioned as the place for
holding the next state aerie session
A number of the officials Of the Keno
sha aerie remained for the business
meetings of the state aerie which are
being held today.

COMMISSION GETS BUSY QUICK
West Side Park is Visited and Mem
bers of the Commission Plan to Make
Early Suggestions for Better Public
Grounds in the Citys

The Rev. Carl Buenger was elected
president of the new Kenosha park
commission at the first meeting of the
son missioners held at the city hall on
Tuesday evening. The members of the
commission have requested City Clerk
George w. Harrington to act as secre-
tary of The commission. Mayor Dan 0.
Head was present at the first meeting
Of the commission and outlined his
views as to the work that would be
expected from the members of the
board and gave them the assurance of
the fullest support from himself and
the members Of the common council in
their efforts to solve the problems of
the Getty Beautiful" The members
Of the commission took up the ordi-
nance providing for the appointment
Of the board and it was considered par
lgraph by paragraph with view OF
having the new officials advised fully
As to lust what their duties are and
The powers of the board. The commits
sion then took an adjournment until
this evening when a meeting will be held
with the city engineer and the chair
nan of the streets and public grounds
committee with view of deciding Just
what is to be done by the commission
in the immediate future. The mem
oers of the new board jumped into the
work this morning and took an auto
trip about the city, making an inves-
sigation Of the public grounds They
paid especial attention to the West
Side park where all work had been
stopped by the council pending the
suggestions of the commission. The
members were agreed that part of
This park should be set aside for use
rs a public play ground for the chill
lren, and it is probable that some sug-
yestion along this line will be made in
he near future. The suggestion has
oeen made that the east end of the
park be used as the play ground and
hat the West end be parked in keep
ne with the plans made by former
officials of the city The work on the
park has not been ordered continued
as yet. The members Of the commits.
sion took up little practical street
work when they made an investigation
If grade conditions at the Masonic
Temple corner. Here the placing OF
The walk to grade viii cause the re
noval of half dozen trees. The com
mission carefully investigated the con
aition Of the trees and members OF
5he Masonic order will be invited tt
meet with the commission and present
their views. 1t is possible that the
commission viii find a way to save
some of the trees.
After the meeting this evening, it il
thought that the commission will b.
better prepared to take up the matter
Of side walk grades.

WILL KEEP TAB ON SALOONS
License Committee to Take Personal
interest in Manner in Which Places
are Conducted and Offenders Against
Laws Will Face Council Hearing.

Following the report of the license
committee Of the common council in
which it is declared that there is
gambling going on in the saloons of
the city, the police of the city have
been ordered to keep a special watch
on all saloons and all forms of gamb-
ling will be suppressed. The little game
Of penny ante which has been pulled
off in the back room is to become a
thing Of the past, and the actions of
the sporty ones in casting dice for
dollar flop will have to be omitted In
the future. The police officials have
been notified that there will be no
more winking at the petty gambling
and the saloons will have to follow the
same rule as the other places for gamb-
ling and shut down on all the games.
The back rooms have been unmolested
in Kenosha in the past so long as they
were limited to very small stakes, but
it is understood that members of the
license committee are determined to
put an end to these games. Some of
the saloon men themselves have pro-
tested against them and they demand
that the saloons be- operated only as
saloons and not as gambling places.
The board of health is going to fol-
low the order of the council and make
an investigation of conditions pre-
vailing in saloons and one of the first
jobs for the sanitary inspector will be
an investigation into these places and
majority of the saloons in the city are
under the management of foreigners
who have taken out naturalization
papers, and many of these men seem to
care nothing for sanitary conditions.
Others insist that it is impossible to
keep the saloons in the best possible
sanitary conditions on account of the
nature oI Cno GIdue III SoLne " CAe
places.
City Clerk Harrington is busy today
issuing the new licenses which will go
into effect on next Monday morning
and every saloon man has been notified
that the license fee must be paid to
the city treasurer before next Monday
or no license will be issued.
There is apprehension as to the
standing Of the three saloons whose
licenses were not granted at the meet
ing Of the council on last Monday
evening Some of the attorneys hold
that the council must grant the licenses
before the first day of July and that
the council erred in not adJourning
from time to time until all licenses
were acted upon. The committee has
declared that it is not ready to report
on the three licenses in question, and it
has shown desire to have the matter
left open until such a time as more in
formation can be secured. If the read
ing of the 1908 statute is correct, these
saloons may have difficulty securing
licenses for another year.
Chairman Kisten Of the license
committee is going to keep up his
personal investigation of all saloons
and in case of violation Of the laws
he has declared that he will personally
go to the council with a demand for
the revocation of the licenses Of the
offending saloons.
