NO RUSH At PLANNING MILLS
Architects Have Few Jobs to Submit
For Figures and Builders of City Are
Threatening to go to Other Places
Where Work Is More Plentiful.

Contractors and builders in Keno
sha are looking forward just at pres
ent to the opening of the building sea-
son on the first of May and there is
no indication of busy building sea
son in Kenosha. Conditions are in
strange contrast to the conditions
which prevailed a year ago and most
OF the contractors declare that there is
nothing in sight to indicate anything
like busy season. Few plans are in
the hands of the contractors for figures
and less than half dozen buildings are
now in course of construction in the
city. The planning mills and other
places where interior fnishings are
made are running short handed and it

This does not include calls to homes
in an effort to trace source of contag-
/ ious disease, such as scarlet fever,
diphtheria, measles, smallpox, typhoid
fever.
Statistics of contagious diseases in
the report are of especial interest.
These show that during the year there
were fourteen cases of scarlet fever
with no deaths. There were IL cases
of diphtheria with two deaths; II cases
of smallpox with no deaths; 35 cases of
typhoid fever with Is deaths; 315 cases
of measles with seven deaths; "a cases
of whooping cough and no deaths; SO
cases of tuberculosis with 10 deaths.
During the year there were 800 chill
dren born III the city, 1893 of whom were
boys and 407 girls. The Fifth ward
was the banner ward for the stork, the
report showing 233 babies born in that
ward during the year. The Third was
second with 1919 and the Fourth was
third with 81. Other wards followed,
Seventh rs; Eighth 90; Second So;
Sixth 81, and First 35.
There were 344 marriages in the city
during the year. Of this number 81
of the brides were single women, II
were widowed and 16 were Divorces.
Among the grooms it was the first ven
ture in matrimony for 312, IS were
widowers, and IA had settled former
marriage attempts in the courts by the
divorce route.
Of the 247 deaths in the city during
the year 20 were of children under one
year of age and four were of people
over ninety years of age. There were
"a deaths among people between the
ages of 50 and 60 years. The largest
number of deaths was in the Third
ward, where 60 people died during the
year. The number of deaths in the
other wards was: First 30; Second "a;
Third 60; Fourth %; Fifth 40; Sixth

MANY KENOSHANS INTERESTED
Kenosha Grand Army Men to Join in
Nation Wide Fight to Take Away
Red Tape From Naturalization of
Men Who Served in Army in War.

During the last two or three years it
has developed that many union soldiers
are not citizens of the United States
and are therefore unable to vote. The
impression prevailed at the beginning
OF the war, and for nearly a half
century after, that all soldiers there
by became legal voters. In the cases
of some their fathers had taken out
their papers. In other cases fathers
had died and their citizenship papers
were lost. The soldiers were told that
they were not citizens Of the United
States and consequently could not
vote; yet many of them had served
from three to four years in the civil
war
There are several such cases among
soldiers in Kenosha. There are sever
al IN the Fred S. Lowell Post of the
Grand Army. A movement has begun
which it is hoped will result in a
congressional act whereby any man
who can bring proof that he was a
soldier, in the form of an honorable
discharge or a pension certificate, shall
be regarded as citizen of the United
States. The local post will be asked
to adopt the following resolution.
Whereas, 1t has CONS to the knowl-
edge of members of Fred s. Lowell
Post that there are those among them
who, though they had long and heroic
service in the war of the rebellion, are
not regarded as citizens Of the United
States, and, therefore, can not exer-
else the right of franchise; therefore,
be it
Resolved, That Fred S. Lowell Post,
G. A. r., earnestly appeals to congress
to enact a law whereby any soldier not
now recognized as citizen, through no
