Of 1913SEASON
Mcdonald and Patten Out of Line
up in Clash With Mcpherson
Soldiers To-day.

LONG with the prospects of a
n tough game this afternoon at
Grant Field the Tech football
future was frightened considerably
yesterday by the arrival of Churchil!.
2OO-pound Texan, from Allen Acad-
, envy, Bryan, Texas.
= Churchill is an all-round athlete
being especially strong in football,
the shot put and the pole vault, ana
while he will be ineligible for football
this year, he should show much class
IN the track meets next spring.
The game with the soldiers of the
seventeenth Infantry from Fort Nc
Pherson, of course, is attracting most
OF the attention, but Heisman is not
letting the approaching combat take
any edge off his training plans.
Squad Has Been Pruned.
The squad has been cut from 100
to 80 members, divided into varsity
and scrub members, which, in turn.
are divided into two teams each, to
Facilitate the handling and attention
of the coaches. Heisman has the su =
pervision of the varsity, of course,
with the No. l scrubs under Coach
Alexander. Montague and Jim Moore
have charge of the scrub secon Is,
both of them showing much aptitude
for the coaching business, with pros
poets of assisting Heisman very ma
terially in the work
All is not joy, however The hos
pital list is growing, and its latest
member is none other than ALI Nc
Donald, the star quarterback being
put out of the game yesterday by a
wrenched knee. He will be out sew
eral days. Gene Patten is slowly re-
covering from his knee injury and
probably will be out another week.
To-day's Lineup.
Following is the expected lineup
for the game to-day.

GET RACINE RUNAwAYs HERE.
Walter Anderson and Eddie Zelanski,
Got Only as Far as Kenosha.

Walter Anderson, aged IA years, and
his companion Eddie Zelanski, of the
same tender years were Racine boys and
they tired of the continued monotony
of the Bell city and decide to make a
break for liberty. With few cents
as capital they fed from their homes
on Monday afternoon and got as far
into the bright lights as Kenosha before
their money ran out. The boys were
roaming about Main street along about
midnight last night when Police Officer
Breidt advised them that the "curfew =.
bell had rung some hours before and
as the boys were unable to give an ac-
count of themselves they were taken to
the lookup. They hurriedly admitted
to the officers at the police station that
they had seen enough Of the world and
suggested that their parents be notified
that they were in Kenosha and willing
to go back to Racine. The fathers of
the boys came down to get them this
morning. Their cases will probably be
taken up at a woodshed hearing on
the return to Racine.

The warning sent out by the Wiscon-
sin state board of health against the
Friedman so-called "cure' for con-
sumption is as strong as the board can
make it. The board certainly would
not have taken such step without be-
ing thoroughly convinced that its ac-
tion was warranted by the facts. The
bulletin sent out by the board says
We regret that the methods of ex-
plotting this 'cure' and the results thus
far obtained do not give US any en-
couragement in the reliability or eff
cheney of this remedy and therefore
would strongly advise individuals who
are suffering from tuberculosis to con-
tinue in the well known methods of
namely, rest, fresh air and
plenty of good food, until the govern
ment officials have made final report
Of the Investigations being made. "

The discovery that the lighting con
tract has still another year to run will
not be allowed to interfere with the
installation Of a decorative lighting
system for the down town business dis
trict of the city provided that the COM
mittees of the retailers association
succeed in getting the necessary two
thirds of the property owners to sign
the petitions to the council for the
lights. If the contract for the light
ing of the entire city was to have been
drawn the members of the council
would have preferred to have the con-
tract for the special lighting made a
part of it, but the majority of the al
dermen have been in favor of the
decorative lighting plan from the be-
ginning and they will doubtless be
wiling to go ahead with it just as
soon as the way is cleared by the re-
taller S association The negotiation
of this smaller contract with the gas
and electric company will be good
practice for the council against the
time when they will have to take up
the problem of working out satisfac-
tory agreement for lights covering
service all over the city.

this right to suspend the enforcement
of a statute introduces a new policy
into the Wisconsin law and it is a
policy which, unless the powers granted
under il are most carefully exercised,
viii prove policy which may in time
not be considered of value to the state.
Labor leaders throughout the state
are generally quite disturbed over the
fact that the Legislature has conferred
on the industrial commission the right
to suspend the operaticn cf the WON
en- IS hours of labor law and will watch
all orders which are issued by the
commission on this subject very closely.
The labor leaders regard the placing
of a discretionary power with the Wis
consin industrial commission as to the
number of hours which women shall be
employed as a weakening of that stat
ute and the social democrats tried very
hard when the bill was pending before
the assembly to have the clause con-
ferring this power stricken from the
measure.
Already there have been dozen APP
plications from various branches Of
industry for temporary suspensions of
the law in their favor, and there is
hardly a branch of labor in which
women are employed, probably, which

to the operation of the law.

mime TAX ON COAL
Coal Dealers will have to get
More Money For Their
"Black Diamonds" Soon
CONSUMER WILL. PAY THE TAX

Kenosha coal men are in receipt of
circular notices to the effect that to
the price of the coal at the mines will
be added the amount of the Pennsyl-
vania specific state tax. This will
make about ten cents difference on
the ton to the local dealers.
Consumers who have already placed
orders for summer delivery of anthra-
cite coal will not be obliged to pay this
additional tax and it will all come out
of the deaer but after September L,
the dealers viii add it to the retail
price to save themselves, and the late
coal buyers will have to pay it then.
The language of the circular is as
follows:
In addition to the prices quoted on
our circular dated July 1, 1913, we will
charge and add to all invoices, the
amount of the Pennsylvania state tax
on anthracite coal produced in the
state OF two and one-half per cent of
the value of the coal at the mines as
nearly as the amount can be figured.
AS soon as they start charging US
this extra amount for the coal we will
be obliged to begin charging our pat
rons for it even if it does come before
the first of September, one prominent
Kenosha coal dealer declared, today.
Local dealers do not anticipate that
the price of coal will go any higher
here than it did last winter when the
shortage boosted the price fifty cents
ton on all kinds of anthracite coal
They say there is plenty of coal in the
city this year and they can see no
valid reason why a shortage should de-
velop next winter. Thus, even with the
extra tax, Kenosha people will not
pay any more for their coal this win
ter as they did last.

The council took action to annul the
saloon license recently issued to VIM.
Russell in charge of a pace at the cor
ner of Park and Church street. 1t was
ordered by the council that should the
license not be paid for by July Goth
that it be declared null and void and
that the license right Of the place be
declared forfeited.
It is probable that the council will
make a hard fight against license be-
ing granted to some other man proposed
by the brewery. Russell has declined
to pay for the license unless the brew
cry leases the building to him at the
same price it pays for it to the owner.
The committee on licenses reported
against the issuance Of a license for
the Academy on Wisconsin street and
the report was accepted and adopted

The park commission sent a report

municipal greenhouse as compared with
the expenditures for flowers and

Of the commission was confirmed by a
unanimous vote of the council
Protests were received against the
award of the commissioners in charge
of the opening Of both Selleck avenue

Gil notified the protesting property own
ers that they would be given chance
to be heard at the next regular meeting
of the council, The protesting property
owners are all demanding a large price
for the land taken for the opening of
the streets.
The council decided to put the police
officers Of the city on the same plane
as the fremen and in the future the
policemen will have one day vacation
each week. The movement is in keep
ing with the new state law which pro-
vides that all employed men shall have
at least one day in seven as a crest
day. The new order will go into effect
at once anticipating the passage of the
law by the state legislature.
The ordinance providing that all
bread sold in the city be wrapped in
individual packages was given its sec
ond reading and passed by the council
1t will go into effect at once and in
the future all bread sold in the city
must be wrapped in waxed paper
Heavy penalties are provided for viola
lions of the law.
The council had a large amount Of
routine business to take care of and it
was long after II O'Clock before ad-
journment was taken.

Personal Property of Joyo
Serencic Said to have been
Taken from His Bed.
OFFICIALS SEEK RELATIVES
County is Asked to Bury Man But the
County Agent Alleges That He Had
Insurance to Take Care of Expenses
Which Was Stolen from His Room.

Claiming that efforts are being made
TO force the county to provide for thu,
burial of q man who had made provi-
sion for his funeral by securing an in
surance policy on his life, the county
agent and other officials Of the county
are seeking to get some trace of a man
who is alleged to have taken a pocket
book and an insurance policy from the
bed Of Jovo Serencic, who died at the
Kenosha hospital on last Saturday
morning. Before being taken to the
hospital the man had lived at the old
Slosson homestead on Ashland avenue
and it is claimed that his personal eff
fects were taken from this place.
County Agent Jones in making an in.
vestigation of the matter found that
the man had the insurance policy and
a pocket book containing considerable
money under his pillow at the house.
This fact was known to many of the
friends and relatives Of the man, but
they seem to be unable to give any
information which will lead to the re-
turn Of the property.
It is asserted by the county agent
that the policy and the money were
taken by a man supposed to have come
here from Milwaukee, Demand has
been made upon the county to provide
for the payment of funeral and hospi-
tai expenses for the man but these
bills will not be met until the fullest
examination has been made into the
case. County Agent Jones has served
a formal notice on the officials of the
insurance company having the policy on
the life Of Serencic demanding that no
payment be made on it to any one
without the county having a chance to
be heard in the matter. For the last
four weeks Of the life of Serencic he

that he had considerable sum Of

POLICE GET DAY or REST
Council Receives Protests Against the
Awards Made by the Commission in
Charge of Opening selleck Avenue
and North Pleasant Street Monday.

The city council at its regular meet
ing on Monday night voted to set aside
breakwater district on the north side
of the city with a view of providing
for the erection of a breakwater which
will serve the dual purpose Of aiding
the city in the protection Of the north
end of Lake avenue and which will also
make possible the construction Of a
park along the lake at the north end
of the city. The district suggested by
the committee and adopted by the coun-
ell will comprise all the territory to
the east of Milwaukee avenue and to
the end of Bronson street. It is planned
to run the breakwater from the east
end of Bronson street to a point $50
feet north of the limits of the city.
Property within the proposed dis
trict will be taxed to pay a portion
of the cost of building the breakwater,
the amount to be assessed against the
property owners to be determined later
by the street assessment committee.
The report of the committee was ac-
cepted and adopted and the plans for
the breakWater will be made at once.
Under referendum vote the council
has power to issue bonds in the sum of
$4,000 to provide for the breakwater
construction, but the estimated cost of
the breakwater will be SAC, 900, and the
remainder of the cost must be assessed
to the property owners. It is probable
that the city will Immediately seek to
have commission named in order that
it may condemn land for park purposes
along the proposed breakwater. Some
of the property owners have expressed
willingness to give land to the city,
but others have refused to deed the
land and have insisted that the city
pay the full market price for it.
The action on the breakwater was the
most important matter to come before
the council. The petitions asking for
the annexation of the vast tract of ter
ritory to tie south and west Of the
city were presented and referred to the
committee on judiciary. With them
came remonstrance to the annexation
of the territory known as Orchard
Knoll, Kenosha Heights, and Corcoran S
Grand View subdivision, but this re-
monstrance was not formally presented
and men who had been actively CON
neeted with the circulation of it declar-
ed that it would be withdrawn in case
the people were assured that they would
get certain public improvements and
that they would not be forced to pay
double school tax.
If the petitions are acted ON favor
ably By the council it viii take about
four months to secure the annexation
of the property to the city It is de-
Iclared that the petitions are signed by

ALUMINIUM FOUNDRY LEAVES.

The Aluminium Castings Company
employing hundred skilled workers
is to leave the city according to re-
ports which appear to be verified by
the facts. Mr.. Conrad Werra who
founded the company and built it into
the big business it Is has severed his
connection with it and is said 10 be en-
gagged in organizing similar business
at Waukesha.
The plant is partly dismantled and
the employees are ''laid off," This is a
staggering blow to the city and to
make it worse the Wisconsin Alumni
um Foundry, growing young concern
engaged in the same business is said to
be negotiating with other cities for a
site. The misfortune is in measure
alleviated by the news of contemplate
ed addition to the plant of the Alumi-
nun Novelty company to cost in the
neighborhood of $4,000. The situa-
tion is being canvassed with the idea
of interesting local capital to take over
the foundry vacated by the Castings
Company and run it.
Mr.. Werra's departure is a loss to
the city that will be distinctly felt.
