HAS HAD WIDE EXPERIENCE
Well Known Women in Charge of the
Movement Plan for Big Revival of
Work Under New Executive-Young
Girls to be Benefited by Plans.


The executive committee Of the
"Big Sister, movement in Kenosha
on Friday evening elected Miss Ro-
sale Lyman of Kenosha to become the
head of the work in Kenosha and I'M
der her management plans are being
made for a big revival Of the work Of
the organization which has met with
the enthusiastic support of the women
of Kenosha, Miss Lyman will at once
take up the work Of Miss Bailey, the
" Big Sister, who recently resigned
her position.
Miss Lyman will bring to the work
experience gained in years of work in
social movements. She was educated
especially for this class Of social work
and supplemented her education with
long experience in Chicago and other
cities. For number Of years she
had charge Of the work among young
girls at the Chicago Commons and she
was most successful in this organiza-
tion. Later she had charge Of sew
eral girls clubs in Michigan. She has
taken deep interest in the work in
Kenosha and the members of the exc
cutlve committee feel that with her at
the head of the organization that a
new and wider field Of labor will be
found in Kenosha
/" Since the resignation of Miss Bailey
as head Of the movement here the
work has been largely under the
charge Of Miss Peterson of Racine.
but she has not been able to give the
time to the work that was demanded.
The women of Kenosha have shown a
willingness to support this work and
all that has been found necessary is
real leader to have personal charge.
Miss Lyman in her work will have the
active cooperation of all the women
who have been active in the move
ment.
Past experiences in the 1tBig Sis
ter movement have shown that there
is a large demand for social work
among the girls of the city. Kenosha
has more factory workers among the
girls than any other city in Wisconsin
outside Of Milwaukee and little or no
provision has been made for these
girls. Many of them come in from
other cities and the lack of some home
life for them has been one of the
greatest drawbacks in getting them
interested in better modes of living.
During her connection with the
Chicago Commons Miss Lyman gave
all of her time to the work among
girls and she has many plans which.
she feels certain will be Of value in
the work in Kenosha. The work of
the association will be aggressive and
efforts will be made to throw safe
guarding influence about the young
girls of Kenosha.

STILL FIGHT TANGLED WIRES.
Service of Telephone. and Telegraph
Companies Still Affected by Storm.

Storm damage of more than week
ago IS still affecting the service of the
telegraph and telephone companies in
Kenosha and more than forty men
are temporarily in Kenosha making
an effort to clean up tangled wires
and restore the service. The telegraph
companies are in better shape than
they have been since the Storm One
crew of the Western Union Company
is putting in cable which will extend
from Chicago to Milwaukee and which
is expected to go q long way toward
eliminating storm troubles in the fut-
ure. The American Telephone and
Telegraph Company still has $50 posts
down between Chicago and Milwaukee
and this is causing considerable trou-
BILE for long distance telephone calls
out of Kenosha. 1t is expected that
this trouble will all be cleared up with
in few days. Local telephone serv-
ice has now been fully restored.

Kenosha County to have full
Appropriation Of s5O,4OO
for Highways this Year
NO DELAY IN HIGHWAY WORK

Kenosha county is to get its full
state appropriation for the building Of
highways in the county as on Friday
night the assembly in session at Madi-
son passed bill providing for the ap-
preparation Of $4,000 from the gen
eral funds of the state to be used in
the construction of highways in the
state during the coming summer
months.
The bill passed the assembly prac-
tically without opposition and it is
expected that it will find just as easy
a path through the. state senate when
it is considered on Monday. Of this
amount a little over 1000 will be
paid to Kenosha county thus making
the entire appropriation Of the state
equal to that raised by the towns in
the county. This money is to be avail
able at once. No provision is made
in the bill for taxing this back to the
counties and it is just possible that
this will come as a real gift from the
state to the various counties. Some
of the counties in the state will not
share in this new appropriation as the
amounts raised in the counties for
highway work were insufficient to
meet the amount appropriated to them
by the state out of the original road
fund. With the assurance that this
fund will be available the highway
commissioner of Kenosha county will
begin to get things in readiness at
once for the biggest year Of road build
ing ever known in Kenosha county.
+ The total amount which will be
available for building roads totals
$50, 400. The money from the vari-
Gus towns will be paid into the county
treasury on March 10Th when the reg
ular settlements of the towns with the
county are made and this money will
be available for highway work at
once. There will be no need of anti
cipating expenses this year as the en-
tire fund will be in the hands Of the
treasurer shortly Litter the first of
April.
Commissioner Mcclellan and the
members Of the county board were en-
thusiastic over the action of the legis-
lature. Already many contracts have
been let for materials for road work
and it is expected that there will be
no delay in getting the work started
just as soon as the frost is out of the
ground.
Business systems will be put to the
test IN all parts of the county this
year and the local officials will seek
to give the people dollars worth of
road for every dollar of the people IS
money expended. The question of the
kind of roads to be built will be an
nouneed by the state highway commits
sion within few days. Both concrete
and gravel roads will be built in the
county and it is possible that there
will be severaiSs short stretches of maca-
dam roadways.

risk of her own life, saved that OF
little Frank Hanna by jumping on a
runaway horses back while it was go

Here is her modest description OF
her heroic and difficult feat:
Il was driving along the Yankee
run road near the Perkins farm.
There was young man in rig just
ahead of me- His horse took fright
q some metal pipes and wheeled
a1onud upsetting the rig and throw
ink him directly under IT. The horse
started in my direction. pulled my rig
to the side of the road as quickly as
could and jumped out.
when the horse went by l grasped
for the bride, but missed it. succeed
Cd In getting hold of the harness and
was dragged some distance. In some
way I managed to pull myself up on
the horses back. l then reached for
ward and caught the bride reins as
near the horses mouth as possible. I
pulled on the reins and brought the
animal down to trot and finally to a
standstill.
"Then I tied the horse to fence
and got a piece of rail and raised the
wagon on the young man, who by this
time was Unconscious. feared at the
time he was dead, for he had been
dragged some distance under the
Wagon. In short time, however, he

GUNNER MURDER
TWO BROTHERS
Shot to Death on Street Near
Their Home.

Newark, N. j., Aug. 1.-Two broth
ers, Caspar and Joseph Provinzano,
were murdered while on their way
from work. They were killed by four
gunner almost within sight of their
home
One of the shots fired hit Mrs. Eliz-
abeth Richards, who was passing by
at the time She was taken to the City
hospital, seriously wounded. Another
Provinzano brother, Salvatore, was
with the two who were killed and is
now also in the hospital, overcome by
the. death of his brothers.
The police have made no arrests in
the case, though it is understood they
know to whom to trace the murders.
They are supposed to be four men who
were discharged short time ago by
one of the Provinzanos, who is the
foreman of a gang of coal passers on
a Coney Island ferry boat.
There was trouble in the stokehold
last week, and four Italians were dis
chared, following the outbreak. 1t is
supposed they followed the brothers
after their nights work and shot them
down in the quiet street in which they
live They made their escape before
the police were called.

The Word "Transpire."

Richard Grant White in his Words
and Their Uses says: '"Transpire
means to breathe through and so to
pass off insensibly. The identical word
exists in French. in which language 1t
is equivalent to our perspire, which
also means to breathe through, and so
to pass off insensibly. The Frenchman
says, J'ai beaucoup transpire' q. have
much perspired). In fact, transpire
and perspire are etymologically as
near perfect synonyms as the nature
Of language permits. The latter, how
ever, has by common consent been set
apart in English to express the passage
of watery secretion through the skin.
while the former is properly used only
in a figurative sense to express the
passage Of knowledge from a limited
circle to publicity"

Fruits of Mexico.

Mexico is the fruit paradise. Fruits

Acapulco. on the Pacific slope, is per

Indifferent cultivation of cocOanuts and
bananas everything else grows wild
and in luxuriance.

States this district alone produces ba-

NO MORE LAND FOR JAPS
CALIFORNIA; Troublesome Anti-Alien
Law Operative.

San Francisco, Aug 1l.-Saturday
was the last day under the alien land
act passed by the late legislature on
which Japanese either as individuals
or corporations might acquire land in
California.
individuals now holding land may
continue to hold it during their nat
ural lives, but may not divise it to
japanese heirs. Corporations formed
before the law went into effect may
hold land for fifty years. A number of
such corporations have recently been
recorded Attorney General Webb,
who rivised the bill into it's present
form, said:
mo object of the law has been de-
feated by these corporations. The law
was not intended to force japanese
now owning land to part with it at
once or within any fixed period. They
were to be permitted to hold it during
their lives. By forming corporations
they merely extended tehir time of
ownership.

It seems incredible that so small and
harmless an animal as a mouse Is able
10 frighten an elephant almost out Of
its senses. One little mouse in the
hay on which they are feeding will
stampede an entire herd. In their ma
tive land there are little animals,
known as chacanas, which feed on a
small, sour berry of which elephants
are very fond They live In settle
NESTS, something after the manner Of
prairie dogs. under the berry bushes.
When feeding. the elephants trample
the little towns. and the chacanas. in
their fright, run up the tubes Of the
elephants trunks. Their long, sharp
claws catch in the flesh. and they can
not be elected. The more violently the
monster blows through its coiled trunk
the more firmly the hooked claws OF
the little animal become imbedded in
the flesh. Inflammation and death are
the result. In captivity the elephants
