MUST SETTLE WITH MANiTOWOC
Judge Taylor Seeks to Secure Payment
for the County for Refusal to Care
for Woman Patient Recently Commit
ted-Sanitarium Only Solution.

The state board of control has declin-
ed to grant any relief to Kenosha
county in the protest made against the
action of the officials of the Manitowoc
Sanitarium, which refused to provide
for the care of Patronella Trokalis, a
sufferer from tuberculosis, recently COM
mitted from this county to the Mani
towoc institution.
County Judge George W. Taylor this
morning received a letter from the
state board in which it was declared
that the board could take no action in
the matter and that it would be neces-
sary for the Kenosha county officials
to seek an adjustment with the Off
Gals of the Manitowoc institution.
The officials of the sanitarium in TAX
ing the matter up with the state board
of control held that their reason for
sending her back is that she is
a defective and that on account of her
condition she could not be forced to
abide by the rules of the institution.
Judge Taylor has taken the matter up
with the officials of Manitowoc county
and in the meantime the woman is be-
ing cared for at the expense of the
city at the st. Mary's hospital at Ra
cine. The failure Of the state board
of control to take up the case and force
the Manitowoc institution to care for
the woman is distinct disappointment
to people in Kenosha interested in the
care of this sort of patients.
The greater part of the patients in
Kenosha county in the advanced stages
of tuberculosis are foreigners and it is
feared that difficulties similar to those
met in the Trokalis case will be met
in other cases found in Kenosha. If
the sanitariums in other counties
may under the new state law refuse
to accept such patients after they are
committed in regular form by the coun-
ty judge the law will bring little re-
lief to Kenosha county.
Judge Taylor declares that the only
solution for this county if it cares to
go into the humanitarian work of pro-
viding for the last days Of these people
is for the county to build a sanitarium
of it's own which will make possible
the care Of any sort of patients from
the county This fact is more pertinent
than any possible saving that the city
and county might make by the building
of hospital. 1t is just possible that
site for a hospital of this nature
could be found within the limits of the
city of Kenosha or very close to the
limits in the town of Pleasant Prairie.
It is thought that such site would
meet with the approval of the members
of the county board.

FOLLOW new STATE STATUTE
Money Must be Held for Six Years by
the Treasurer After Which it Will
be Turned Over into General Fund of
County if No Claimants Appear.

In keeping with the provisions of a
state law enacted, by the legislature in
1911 and published the first of July of
that year Clerk of the Circuit Court
Benjamin M. DeDeimar today turned
over to the county treasurer a check
for $715.82, representing amounts held
by the clerk in cases tried in the cir
cult court for which no claim has been
made. Some of this money has been in
the hands of the various clerks Of the
court for period of thirty years
awaiting claimant. In keeping with
the law the money was held by the
court during the last two years subject
to any call which might be made for it
by persons interested but no claims
have been fled.
The largest amount is balance left
after the trial of partition suit in
1883. The suit was brought by HI. Nc
Intyre and others against d. Mcintyre
and at the conclusion Of long litigation
the sum of 1924 was left in the hands
Of the clerk. This amount was pay
able to an heir to an estate who has
never made claim for the money and
no claim for it has been made by any
Of the other heirs to the estate.
The sum Of $166.33 has been in the
hands Of the clerk since 1888, following
litigation under the title of A. @. Fair
VS.. Houston and others. There is
nothing in the records of the case to
indicate to whom this money belongs.
$112.08 was held for many years in the
suit Of Philip Horning VS.. P. Horning
Jr., for Martin Horning. This case was
tried more than ten years ago.
This money will eventually find its
way into the general funds of the
county and be used for regular county
business. Under the law the amounts
as turned over by the clerk Of the court
must be held for term Of six years
and at the end of this period he must
advertise for three weeks that the money
is in his possession. The claimants for
the funds may at that time institute
an action to recover it from the county,
but if the action is not started within
year after the advertisement is made
the monies are turned into the general
funds of the county by the treasurer.
After this action is taken the law pre-
vents further action to recover from
the county.
It is unusual that so large a sum
should have been left in the keeping
of the county for so many years with
out any claims being made for it. There
are other amounts on deposit with the
clerk of the court which will be turned
over to the treasurer in short time in
keeping with the provisions of the law.
No interest has been earned on these
funds as the clerks have held them in
checking accounts subject to the demand
of the claimants at any time.

War on False Weights and
Measures Shown to Have
Had Effect in State.
CITIES PASS ORDINANCES

The fraudulent use of bottomless
measures all over the state and the
former prevalent use Of liquid measures
for measuring dry commodities, causing
a shortage of Is per cent, have been
discontinued, and many thousands of
inaccurate scales, weights and meas
ures in common everyday use have
either been corrected or condemned
and destroyed. J. @. Emery, ex-oficio
state superintendent Of weights and
measures, thus summarizes the work
of that department for 1912 in his an
nual report to the governor. The law
was passed by the 1911 legislature.
For the entire state, Jan. l to Dec.
IL, 1912, there were 1870 inspections
OF this number, 1891 were con-
demned for repairs and 21,179 con-
demned for further use. The per cent
correct was 1875. The number ad-
justed was 1921.
have resulted in the appointment of a
! city sealer of weights and measures
in all but three of the thirty-six cities
required by law to APPOINT such off
Gals Mr.. Emery adds that in place
of previous indifference, carelessness
and neglect, there is now painstaking
care in the matter of accuracy in
weights and measures.
In his report to Supt. Emery, Fred
P. Downing, chief inspector, says the
present law is effective in that it
makes no provision for the labelling
of package goods so as to show the
capacity in terms of weight, measure
or numerical count. He advises re-
quirement that a sales slip be given
the purchaser. giving the true weight
or measure, or else that it be marked
on the package.
"The butcher who puts down ON his
bill roast, 81; chops, so CENTS if
complaint is made can always fall
back to the excuse that the meat was
trimmed says Mr.. Downing. "Such
practice enables dishonest dealers
to give short weight or measure and
escape detection. Four cities of Wis
consin, Fond du Lac, Ashland, Stevens
Point aad Green Bay, by local ordi-
mace have put a stop to this prac-
tice; but state law is necessary to
protect the people in the smaller
towns and villages in which city
sealers have no jurisdiction =
In an opinion to Mr.. Emery recently,
Attorney General w. G. Owen rules
that cities, and not the city sealer shall
pay the livery hire and other neces-
sary expenses incurred by him in
carrying out the provisions of the
weights and measures law, in addi-
ton to paying his salary 1t is also
held the dealer cannot be made to paw
for inspections, a work which is done
not so much to help the dealer as to
protect the public.

Well-known Physician of the
City Died From Stroke of
Paralysis on Thursday.
WAS STRICKEN ON Street CAR

DR.. George T. Kimball, one Of the
best known of the practicing physicians
of Kenosha, died very suddenly Thurs
bay when he was stricken with
paralysis on a street car on his way
to visit patient on the north side of
the city He died just after eleven
o'clock at the Lamb drug store on Mil
waukee avenue.
DR.. Kimball had left his Office in the
Public Service building a short time
before he was stricken and had waited
for car at the corner of Main and
Market streets. When the car came
along he showed great weakness and
NJ. g. Mcclellan, county highway com
missioner, assisted him to get on the
car. DR.. Kimball complained of suf-
fering from shortness of breath, but
after he got on the car he seemed to re-
cover. He had ridden less than quar-
ter of a mile when he collapsed and
fell over into the arms of Mr. Niece
han. He was taken from the car and
removed to the drug store and DR.. Will
lam Pugh summoned to attend him. He
never regained consciousness and died
a few minutes after the arrival Of DR..

For the past week DIR. Kimball had
been complaining of faintness and on
Tuesday evening he had an attack sim
liar to the one which brought his
death at his Offices. He had been great

oner Millager was called to make an

clded that death was due to natural

OF course il is important to

These bits of commercial

for them and take advantage
of them when they are doing
their buying. The leading

real saving and always
means something new and

It will be noted that Auditor Winke
in his remarks on the general eondi-
ton Of the accounts of the city and
in response to a request from the city
treasurer recommends the adoption of
the coupon system for the collection
of the tax bills and his suggestion
should be adopted by the city. The
expense Of installing this system is
not great and its advantages are obvi-
Gus. Most Of the work of the city
treasurer S office is done under pres
sure and in the last two weeks of the
time allowed for the collection of the
taxes and the change to the coupon
system will not only reduce the LA
bility of error to minimum but viii
do away with the long waits which
are so annoying to tax payers.
