TO DISCUSS sANITARIUM SITE
Board of Control Notifies County Clerk
That Matter Comes up Tomorrow.

County Clerk Jones this morning re-
ceived a letter from the State Board
of Control notifying him that the ques-
zion of the site for tuberculosis san
itarium in this county would be taken
up by the board at Madison on We'd
nesday afternoon. At this time the
members Of the board will be willing
to hear such protests as may be made
against the Flemming site selected at
the last meeting Of the county board.
It is not expected that any formal pro-
test will be filed. Members of the
Board of Control will come to the
county later in the year to make an
examination of the site proposed and
it is expected that some final report
will be made to the members of the
county board at the January session.
The committee named to have charge
of securing plans and specifications for
The hospital is already at work and
these viii be ready for the considera-
ton of the board at the same meeting.

and it is probable that some way will
be found to bring the matter up again
at the January session.
More road machinery is to be pur-
chased for the use of the county and
the board voted to take $4,000 out of
the general funds of the county for
this purpose. A special committee was
named by the chairman to have charge
of the purchase of the machinery. 1t
is made up of Supervisors Tobin, Kreu-
scher and Chairman Schuart. Super
visor Herzog of Somers, was originally
named on this committee but he declin-
ed to serve and the chair named the
Paris Supervisor to take the vacant
place. Some of the bills against the
county for road building under the di-
rection of retired Commissioner of
Highways, Williams, will go over to the
January session of the board and the
bondsmen will be notified that they
will not be released from liability I'M
til all of these accounts are settled
up.

County Board Committee to Make Wis

Periodic inspections of the Racine
County Asylum for the Insane are to
be continued by the members of the
Kenosha County Board and special
committee composed of Supervisors
Link and Markham Of Kenosha and
Tobin of Pleasant Prairie, has been
named to have charge of this work
during the coming year. The members
Of the committee are to make four in
spections of the institution during the
year to supplement the inspection made
during the annual meeting of the
board. A strong effort has been
made to eliminate these inspections,
but a majority of the members of the
board were favorable to continuing
under the old plan.

The proposal to put the rest of the
employees of the state Of Wisconsin
under the civil service which will be
made to the next session of the legis-
lature by the Civil Service League

politicians who are members of that

that the change will be made notwith-

TRAINING SCHOOL KILLED
Plan to Rent a Building and Pro
vide for the Training of Teachers
is Killed Practically Without an
Argument.

The County Board of Supervisors at
it's session on Thursday afternoon
again selected the Flemming Hill as a
site for the proposed tuberculosis SAM
tarium for the county and it is now
thought that there is no irregularity in
connection with the purchase. On
Wednesday evening County Supervisor
Thomas Flemming of the town of Sa-
lem quit claimed on any interest he may
have In the property to brother and
this opened the way for the members
of the board to purchase the site with
out any ENHANCEMENT. The county
clerk was instructed to notify the
board of control that the site had been
selected by the board and the state
board is expected to pass on it before
the January meeting at which time it
is expected contracts will be let for the
building of the sanitarium. Supervi-
sors Tobin, Schwan and Bishop were
named on committee to have charge
of securing plans and specifications for
the proposed buildings and their report
will be sent to the board when it meets
for the short term session in January
The plan of the training school for
teachers in the county was disposed of
in short order and almost without ar
gument. Supervisor Kreuscher, of the
town of Paris, brought resolution to
the board providing for the opening of
such an institution provided it was
possible to rent suitable building in
the city. The resolution proposed an
experiment but when the vote on the
resolution was taken the board was
found to be equally divided. Eight of
the city supervisors voted against the
proposition and the eight supervisors
from the rural towns voted in favor
of it and Chairman Shuart declared the
resolution lost. The defeat of this
resolution came as a keen disappoint-
ment to many of the members of the
board from the towns outside the city

Well Known Catholic Priest
and Former Kenoshan
Died at Prairie du Chen.
LONG IN CATHOLIC MINISTRY

The Rev. Stephen Dean Trant, form
erly one of the best known priests of
the Milwaukee diocese and native
Of Kenosha, died on Saturday after

to Racine. The funeral will take
place ON Wednesday morning at ten
clock at st. Patricks Church, later
the remains will be brought to Keno

the son of William and Anastasia
(scannell Trant, natives of the south

children. Two died many years ago
and now comes the death of Rev
Father Trant, leaving Mrs. Chris
topher Garvey of Prairie du Chen,
the only survivor.
Father Trant was reared in Ke-
nosha where he remained attending the
public schools, until 1856, in which
year he went to reside with an aunt
in Milwaukee. He attended the
Christian Brothers school at old St.
Peters Church, afterward st. Alloy
sius Academy, conducted by the Jesuit
Fathers At the last institution he
remained until February 1861, and
then he entered the st. Francis semi
nary at Milwaukee, to study for the
priesthood, being ordained December
10, 1868.
bis first assignment was HIGHLAND,
Wis, where he remained IL years,
whence he became pastor of st. JOS
eph's Church at Fond du Lac, Wis,
and remained at this charge five
years.
1t was on February 10, 1886, that
Father Trant went to Racine and be-
came pastor of st. Patrick IS Church
and up to the time of leaving there
did active work.

both FEET CRUSHED
Farm Hand Meets Serious
Injury at Northwestern
Station on Saturday.
MAY Be ABLE TO SAVE FEET

John Yondun, aged 80 years, a farm
hand employed on the farm of Will
lam Williamson in the town of Paris,
met with very serious injuries at the,
station of the Chicago & Northwest
ern Railway Company just after four
O'Clock Saturday evening when he
slipped and fell under the wheels of
the west bound passenger train. Both
of the mans feet were crushed and
he is now in a critical condition at
the Kenosha hospital. DR.. H. A. Rob
inson who is attending him is hopeful
that it will be possible to save the life
of the man without amputating his
feet.
Yondun had spent the afternoon in
the city and had planned to 60 west
on the train leaving at AIS. He had
met a mum DER of his friends at one
Of the places near the depot and had
talked too long with them. When he
started for the train it was already
pulling out but he managed to get
hold of the railing on one of the plat
forms and tried to throw himself on
the train. He slipped and fell and
both feet went under the wheels.
The train was running at very low
rate of speed and it was stopped be-
fore the entire body of the man could
be pulled under it. The injured man
was rushed to the hospital. Yondun is
said to be well known among the Pol
ish people of the city.

FAILED TO QUALIFY.
County Board May Be Forced to Elect
a New County Surveyor.

John G. Williams, elected county
surveyor at the recent general cleo
tion failed to qualify for the Office
in the time set by law and it will
be necessary for the county board at
its January session to elect survey
or for the two year term. Mr.. Will
Jams may by that time file bond
and If such bond is filed it is prob
able that he will be appointed to fill
the term for which he was elected.
Kenosha county seems to be shy of
surveyors and no other candidate for
the position has put in an appearance.
