LUKE TO GUIDE ROAD WORK.
Wheatland Chairman is Head of Com
mittee to Have Charge of Roads.

William Luke, town chairman of the
town of Wheatland and bitter oppon-
ent of state aid to highways under the
present system, will have charge of the
road building in the county until such
time as John Herzog of the town of
Somers gives up his Office as town
chairman and accepts the Office Of
highway commissioner of the county.
Mr.. Luke is chairman of the commit
tee on roads and bridges in the county
and the county board at its last session
put this committee in charge of the
road work. The other members of the
committee are Supervisors Upson of
Bristol and Herzog of Somers. It is
certain that this committee will see to
it that no time is lost in getting the
road work started and if weather is
favorable the men will be at work on
the roads before the time set for Com
missioner-elect Herzog to take up the
duties of the Office

MUST NOT RETURN TO COUNTY
If sorg Returns to County Within
Three Years lie May be Sent to
Prison Charged With Assault on
Mrs. VIM. Spetzman.

Judge Randall put an end to the
various charges against Ferdinand
Sorg OF New Munster on Friday after
noon, when he sentenced Sorg to three
years of exile from Kenosha county.
The man and his attorneys agreed with
the court that Sorg should leave Nuns
ter on next Tuesday morning or be-
fore and leave the confines of Kenosha
county with the understanding that he
IS not to return to the county within
three years without the written per-
mission Of the court. Sorg was agree
able to the arrangement as framed
by the court and the attorneys and he
consented to get out of the county by
Tuesday, taking his invalid sister with
him. He expressed great solicitude for
the condition Of his sister and declared
that he would not agree to anything
that would prove an inconvenience
to her.
Sorg was arrested more than four
months ago on charges of assault with
intent to do great bodily harm. The
case was based on an assault alleged
to have been made on Mrs. William
Spetzman, one of the best known
women of the town of Wheatland.
Sorg was held for trial at the coming
term of the municipal court and re-
leased on bonds and during the time
he had been at liberty he was arrested
second time on charges of assaulting
Spetzman. The case became the town
talk of the village Of New Munster and
the surrounding territory and it is de-
clared that statements of a most SEN
satlonal nature were circulated Judge
Randall had an investigation made by
attorneys which satisfied him that the
stories circulated were untrue. When
the case came up for trial the ATTORNEYS
felt that the only way to put an end
to the long standing trouble and stop
the tongues Of scandal would be the
removal of Sorg from the county.
Sorg finally went into court and en-
tered plea of guilty to the charge
against him. Under this plea he then
could have been sentenced from one
to i've years in the state prison at
Waupun. William Spetzman, the hus-
band of the complaining witness. was
anxious that the case go to trial in or
der that the facts might be brought
out and show the falsity Of the stories
which had been circulated IN connec-
tier with the case and he reluctantly
agreed to the plan of deferring sent
ence on Sorg with the understanding
that he would leave the county.
After Sorg had paid all the costs in
the case and taken sentence of exile
Judge Randall advised all parties CON
nected with the case that the discussion
Of it must be stopped. He declared
that if it was not stopped the district
attorney would be instructed to bring
prosecutions under the new Wisconsin
criminal SANDER law. It is thought
that the departure of Sorg will be the
end of the case and that it will not
again be heard of in the courts of the
county. The complaint which had
charged Sorg with assaulting Spetz-
man was dismissed.

BUY UP RIGHT OF WAY.
Real Estate Agents of North Western
Securing Land for Elevated Tracks.

The real estate agents Of the Chicago
and North Western Railway Company
are busy in Kenosha buying up land
for the right of way of the elevated
tracks and during the last few days
several pieces of property have been
transferred to the company. There are
still some of the property owners who
are demanding high prices but the com
pany is making no plans for eondem-
nation and it is not probable that the
company will take any steps along this

BIRD CULTURE UNDERTAKEN.
Governor is Chairman and Game War
den Sholts Secretary of Commission.


Propagation of game birds in Wis
consln, in accordance with the law
passed by the last legislature will be
undertaken IN a small way by the
commission designated by the act, Gov.
McGovern, Game Warden Sholts and
State Forester Griffith. The commits
sion met recently and organized by the
selection of Gov. McGovern as chair
man and Mr.. Sholts as secretary. BY
invitation, there was present Alfred
Won Cotzhausen, of Milwaukee, an en-
thusiastic promoter of wild propaga-
tion. The question Of carrying out the
policy of the state as indicated in the
law was discussed and it was decided
to make an experiment in a small way
in the propagation of Hungarian par
tridges on land available for the pur-
pose in Waukesha county. Mr.. Won
Cotzhausen showed a lively interest in
promoting the experiment and will CO.
operate with Game Warden Sholts.
Mr.. Sholts does not believe that it will
pay to attempt to propagate foreign
birds. He thinks that if the state IS
to enter upon this work it should con-
fine its endeavors to the native birds.
He says that in nearly all the efforts
of other states to breed foreign birds
there has been failure. Wisconsin can
not do much with the appropriation
available. only 50 600 cave Mr. Sbolts
but he plans to make some experiments
at various points throughout the state.

"Sir Percy SCOTS letter contains
nothing new to the admiralty au-

and undeveloped weapons.
The time has not yet arrived for
such Il radical change, although it

PEOPLE With THIN BLOOD

Some people have tendency to be-
come -blooded just as others have an
inherited tendency to rheumatism, or to
nervous disorders. The condition in
which the blood becomes so thin that the
whole body suffers comes on so gradually
and stealthily that anyone with natural
disposition in that direction should watch
the symptoms carefully. Bloodlessness,
or anamia, as the medical term is, can
be corrected much more easily in the
earlier stages than later. 1t begins with
q tired feeling that rest does not over
come, the complexion becomes pale, and
breathlessness on slight exertion, such as
going up stairs, is noticed.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are a home
remedy that has been most successful in
the treatment of diseases caused by thin
blood. With pure air and wholesome
food these Matchmaking pills afford the
correct treatment when the symptoms
described are noticed. A former sufferer
from anamia says: 81 was emaciated
and did not have particle of color. |
