$4,000 voted by the city will be held
in reserve for the construction of the
south and east end of the sewer.
The council voted by an unanimous
vote to permit the Balm Wagon COM
pany to make Encouragement Of their
switch tracks on Pearl street and this
permit will be confirmed by the passage
Of an ordinance later.
A remonstrance was received against
the proposed plan of making residence
district out of that portion of Newell
street between Prairie avenue and
Pomeroy street and it was referred to
the Judiciary committee. 1t is not prob
able that the residence district will be
provided. The remainder of the time
of the council was given over, to the
discussion and passage Of the street
railway ordinance.

BIKE THIEVES BUSY.
Police have Many Reports of Bicycles
Being Stolen i'm This City.

Lock up your bicycle for a band of
bicycle thieves are working overtime
in Kenosha and in the last few weeks
the police have receive half score Of
reports of stolen bicycles. The latest
victims We're: R, E. Mailer, whose
wheel was stolen from the sidewalk near
the malt house on Friday afternoon,
and julius Dagenbach, whose bike dis
appeared from the rear of his store on
Milwaukee avenue on Friday evening.
The police feel certain that these
wheels are being taken apart and the
parts shipped out of the city. Many
arrests have been made for bicycle
stealing but these arrests do not seem
to have put an end to the disappearance
of the wheels.

The ordinance designed to adjust all
Of the differences between the city and
the street railway company had close
call in the council on Friday night but
it finally went through by an unani-
mons vote after the penalty clause in
the section covering the construction
Of the bridge over Pike River at Ash
land avenue, had been eliminated by
the aldermen, apparently for no partic-
ular reason unless the contention Of
some % the aldermen that the penalty
placed against the company was not
large enough is accepted as a valid ex-
cuse for eliminating the penalty alto
gether. Inasmuch as the ordinance
was passed in almost exactly the
form suggested by the railway man
ayers it is probable that the COM
pany will accept it without delay.
1t is probable that the omission
Of the penalty clause on the bridge will
do no particular harm for it is believed
to be the present intention of the com
pany to go ahead and build the bridge
at once and in the words Of one of the
officers of the company, "clean up the
whole situation in Kenosha. !" The
elimination of the penalty clause is one
of those freaks of legislation for which
there is no explanation but the alder
men who refused to accept the clause
are probably all ready with an explain
alton. 1t was noticeable that the very
men who have been most insistent on
making a good bargain with the rail
way and who presumably are most in
terested in having Ashland avenue
opened and the bridge built Immediate
~ were the ones who permitted the com
pany to get out from under the penalty
clause, The city men in charge of
framing the ordinance had considerable
difficulty in securing the consent of the
representatives of the railway company
SC its Incorporation in the measure and
it made the city safe in case any diff
Guilty arose over the completion of the
bridge, for with this clause in the ordi-
nance the city could have gone ahead
and built the bridge in the event of any
trouble and called on the company for
the $500 penalty to pay for it. AS
stated above, no trouble is anticipated
and the street railway company is ex-
pected to go ahead with the bridge at
the earliest possible moment but the in
terests of The city would have been bet
tel safe-guarded with the penalty clause
left in the new ordinance.

National Committee in fight
on Consumption Choose
Double Red Cross.
TO UNITE ALL SECTIONS SOON

A special committee Of The Nation
al Association for the Study and Pre-
vention of tuberculosis, of which DR..
Henry Barton Jacobs of Baltimore is
chairman, announces the exact proper
tions of the double red cross, the in
ternational tuberculosis emblem,
which have been adopted for use in
the United States. Every organization
Or institution dealing with tuberculosis
will be urged to use the emblem in it's
correct proportions.
Although the double red cross was
adopted for use in the United States
in 1906 as the symbol of the crusade
against tuberculosis, no effort was
made to standardize the shape or pro-
portions, with the result that hundreds
of differently formed emblems are now
being used in this country. After a
year of study of the history and az
tlstlc merits Of all of the designs avail
able, the national association has final
ly chosen one in which all of the arms
are pointed, the two cross arms being
of the same length. The width of the
cross is taken as the unit in determin-
ing the proportions. The length of the
lower leg is seven units; the arms are
three UNITS on either side; the point

This section of the state has dis
tressing grade crossing accident at reg
ular intervals and some of the most
prominent and widely known men In
Kenosha and Racine counties have met
death at the crossings, but the demand
for the abolition Of the grade crossing
is not so strong in these two counties
as it is in other parts OF the state.
The people seem to have come to look
upon this class of accidents as part OF
the price that must be paid for the
operation of transportation systems in
stead of useless and unnecessary sacri-
fees to false ideas of economy. There
is no particular value in general esti-
mates but it is the belief of many men
connected with the operating depart
ments Of the railways that the compan-
les would save enough in damage
claims by the installation of viaducts
or subways at the most dangerous grade
crossings to more than pay the carrying
charges on the cost and maintenance of
the work. The time is coming when the
problem of abolishing the grade cross
ing, at least in the more thickly popu-
lated sections of the country will be
forced on the management of all rail
roads either by the balance sheets of
the claim departments or by an aroused
public sentiment.

AFTER BILL POSTERS.
Use of Telephone Poles for Posters
Promises to Bring Arrests in City.

The police of the city have received
orders to make an effort to secure the
arrest of people in the city who have
used the telephone poles as bill boards
and it is expected that arrests will be
made before the day is over. Some
years ago the council passed an ordi-
nance barring advertising matter from
the poles and the ordinance has been
rigidly enforced until few days ago
when Chicago parties came into the
city and covered poles in all parts OF
the city with their advertising matter.
Under the law the men are subject to
a fine Tor each pole used. If the or
dinance is enforced to the letter the
men will be kept busy settling fines for
the rest of their lives.

BABY GETS A TEMPORARY HOME.

the city authorities has found at least
temporary home as on Friday after
noon Mrs. James P Beecher of Elm
street took pity on the little waif and
he is now living at the Beecher home
assured of good care until such a time
as the city officials may find some fam
lily who will be willing to adopt the
child. Friday evening the police de-
partment had a half dozen calls from
people who professed a willingness to
take the little boy and these people are
being given chance to show that they
are able to provide home for it. Tt
is thought that some plan will be work
ed out by which the baby may be legal
ly adopted and with such plan it is
certain that the official will have little
trouble in finding home for the baby.

Light House Officers and
Their Baggage Taken to
New Dist. Headquarters
MAKE TRIP IN REVENUE Gutter

Yesterday the Lighthouse Tender
Hyaeinth steamed past Kenosha bear
ing the entire set Of officials with their
baggage of the Eleventh Lighthouse
District from Chicago to Milwaukee
and now keepers of the local light
will look to the Beer City for their
orders instead of to Chicago as
formerly.
In this manner, and without. osten-
tation OF the blowing Of trumpets, one
of the most important bureaus of the
great lakes service was transferred
to Milwaukee from Chicago and be-
comes a permanent federal depart
ment there.
The force numbered thirty officers
and employees Of the district offices.
Following them will come all the sup
plies for the district, which will be
distributed hereafter from Milwau-
kee, and that city will also become
the headquarters of vessels engaged
in the distribution of lighthouse sup
plies for the eleventh district.
An order was recently issued by AS
sistant Secretary of Commerce Sweet
to the effect that the lighthouse head
quarters be removed from Chicago to
Milwaukee. The district for twenty
seven years has been directed from
the Chicago office.
The reason given for the removal is
that Milwaukee is near to one humid
red aids to navigation, while Chicago
is close to only ffty-seven. In winter
the harbor there is more open.
1t is expected that the Offices will be
in full running order as soon as tie
equipment for the headquarters is
installed.
Four rooms, part of the space for
merly occupied by the pension bu-
reau, will be the future home of the
lighthouse officials.
The official force consists of thirty
persons, whose salary will approximate
$4,000 month. The supplies will
total an amount of 100000 a year,
and it is believed that Milwaukee will
have no competition from people out-
side the state, as the local dealers will
have no fret ,ntsftos pay.

St. Matthew's Church Rec.
tor named Head of Educa-
tional Board of Diocese.
TO WORK NTH GENERAL BOARD

The Rev. Fred Ingley, rector Of st.
Matthews church, has been named as
chairman Of the new educational board
Of the Protestant Episcopal Church in
the Milwaukee diocese and this board
promises to be one Of the most import
ant bodies ever named in the diocese.
The board which is made up of ten
representatives. of the various churches
in the diocese Of Milwaukee will have
charge Of all the educational move
ments of the church in this section
of the state.
This is the first year that such
board has been named and in naming
it Bishop Webb is seeking to have
the churches in and about Milwaukee
have a part in the great educational
movement Of the church. The new
board will have charge of the educa-
tional work Of the church as taught
in the Sunday schools and it will also
have an advisory control of the vari-
ous schools under the direction Of the
church in the diocese. These schools
include Kemper Hall in Kenosha, Ra.
cine College at Racine, and St. John
School at Delafeld The board is also
expected to have a large part in look
ing after the interests of the church
at the University of Wisconsin.
Church education in connection with
the university has been given a great
impetus during the past few years and
student pastors have been named by
many Of the Protestant and Catholic
churches to have charge of the work
among the students.
In speaking of the work of the new
board on Friday Mr.. Ingley said:
"The new diocesan board is named
with view Of having it follow close
ly the work Of the general board Of
education In the state. The work is
new in this diocese, but we are hope
full that the board can be of great
service to the church in systematizing
the educational work, both in the Sun
day schools and in the various schools
under the direction of the diocese.
The movement To advance church adu-
cation is one of the greatest develop
ments Of the church in recent years
and this diocese has been keeping in
close touch with the general move
ment. The plans for the work of the
board have not as yet been outlined,
but it is certain that the board will
be active in promoting all movements
which may be urged by the genera
board of education.

above the arms, two and one-half
UNITS; and the distance between the
arms, one and one.half units. These
measurements hold good for any size.
The double red cross was first adopt.
ed as the symbol of the International
Anti tuberculosis Association in Der.
lin, in October, 1902. The proposer of
the symbol was DR.. G. sersiron of
Paris, who is now associate secretary
of L'Association Centrale Francaise
Contre la Tuberoulose. Today the
emblem is being used by anti-tuber-
culosis workers in every part of the
world, even in iceland, India, South
Africa, Labrador, Japan, China and
the Philippines. The double red cross
IS similar in shape to cross used FREE
quently in the Greek Catholic churches,
and also to the Lorraine Cross of
France.
In the United States over twelve
hundred anti-tuberculosis associations
and committees, nearly five hundred
and fifty sanatoria and hospitals; four
hundred dispensaries and about two
hundred open air schools, besides a
number of other organizations, are
using the double red cross as their
emblem. Wherever it is seen it means
war against tuberculosis.

If there is any way in which specif-

can be drawn SO that these continual
fights over material, and the eonse-
quent delays, can be avoided, some Of
fetal will confer favor By working

the protection that can be given but
the people are getting very tired OF this
