Simmons Company is going to have
a night at the Kenosha Lodge of Elks

twenty men, the limit under the ritual
of the order, all Of the members of The
Simmons organization, will be obligat-
ed. The riding Of the goat by the Sim
mons bunch is to be made the occasion
of big doings. Some hundred Elks
from the big factory will be on hand
and as near as possible the various
chairs will be filed by men employed
by the company. There is going to be
a joy fest in connection with the
initiation of the big class. There will
be a cabaret at the social session fol-
lowing the imitation and buffet
luncheon will be served. If the weather
man will just guarantee a northeaster

WIRE COMPANIES TO FIGHT.
Council Gets Ultimatun from the Tele-
phone Company in Regard TO
Conduits on Monday.

The city is going to have to fight if
it secured the installation of conduits
under the pavement on Pomeroy street.
The Wisconsin Telephone Company on
Monday sent an ultimatum to the alder
men declaring that the company would
put in conduits at such street crossings
as would be necessary in carrying out
the ultimate underground plans of the
company for that street. 1t is declared
that the company would appeal to the
Railroad Commission if the city sought
to enforce the underground wire ordi-
nance, A similar informal statement
has been made by tbs officials Of the
Wisconsin Gas and Electric Company.
Members of the council are little IN
decided as to what course is to be fol-
lowed but most of them appear to be
favorable to fighting the matter out
before the commission right now in or
der that precedent may be set for the
future. It is reasonably certain that
any battle before the commission will
delay the pavement of the street and
it vii probably go over until next year.

ELKs DELAY SELECTION.
Hear Stories of Architects end Then
Take Matter Under Considera-
ton for a Few DAYS.


The club house committee of the Ke-
nosha Lodge of Elks held a five hour
session at the club rooms on Wisconsin
street Monday night and heard the
statements of five architects in regard to
the plans which they had suggested for
the new building. The decision Of the
committee is held in allegiance. So
many excellent ideas were suggested
in the various sketches that the commit
tee found it hard to eliminate any Of
the contestants for the honor Of being
the architect for the building. In or
der to get better understanding of
the plans it is probable that the archi-
tects, or at least several of them will
be called for further consideration. It
is expected that the committee will de-
eide on the architect in order to give
the committee plenty of time to secure
plans before the old buildings on the
site are torn down. Architects have
given the assurance that specifications
can be prepared within thirty days
after the commission for them is
formally awarded

SAY WOMAN KEPT BLIND PIG ,
West Market Street Woman is Held in
Bonds of 500 on Charges of
Selling Liquor Without License.

Sophia Genaitus mot unknown to the
police department, was brought before
Judge Randall on Monday afternoon
charged with the Illegal sale Of liquor
at her home, SIT Market street, and
she is now in the Kenosha county jail
awaiting trial which is set for August
10th. The hearing Of the case was con-
tinued and the woman was ordered to
furnish bond of one hundred dollars.
She was unable to furnish the bonds
and went to Jail. Another woman was
arrested with her, but no formal charge
has been placed against her. Accord
ing to the police the "blind Pig oper-
ated by Mrs. Genaitus has been in
operation for some time and she is said
to have done a big business with
foreigners who were the patrons Of the
place. The woman denied selling the
liquor but admitted that some of her
friends might have been given bottle
of beer on several occasions. The po-
lice declare that several houses in the
city are being operated as "blind
pigs in defiance to saloon regulations
and a general cleanup of these places
is promised.

LIGHT POLE rs HARD HIT.
J. III. Kelley of Russell Backs Into
Market Street Decoration and
Skaters 1t on Monday.

J. H. Kelley, who lives near the vii
lage of Russell, did some wonderful
execution with an automobile at the
corner of Market Square and Church
street on Monday afteSpoon when he
backed his automobile into one of the
decorative light standards with such
force that the standard was broken in
three pieces and the sidewalk was torn
up. Kelley was backing his car in or
der to avoid collision with another
car. He is a most careful driver but
when he started the car back he made
a mistake and put his foot on the
accelerator or something else and it
went into the lamp post with dull
sickening thud. Kelley was a perfect
gentleman about the matter. He told
the police to figure up the damage and
left a check for ifty-three dollars to
cover the expense of making repairs.
The automobile was sturdy and it was
not seriously damaged.

TRAFFIC HELD UP AGAIN.
Trolley at South and Main Streets
Breaks Just After Seven o clock
This Morning Delaying Cars.

The Wisconsin Gas and Electric
Company was again warned of the need
of rebuilding its trolley system at the
corner of Main and South streets this
morning, for just after seven O'Clock
the trolley wire broke at this corner
and carried down with it number of
guy wires. Police officers were called
to protect pedestrians against the live
wires. The cars were forced to turn
the trolley at the corner and the road
was kept in operation with some in
convenience to the passengers. It is
thought probable that the company
will work out some new plan at the
corner with view of preventing the
occurrence Of breaks in the trolley.

and Kraft, was elected vice president
of the Citizens Bank of Kenosha Mon
day at the regular monthly meeting of
the directors, to take the place of W.

citation which has underway the erec-
tion of four hundred houses to be COM

recently established its headquarters in
Mr.. Burke s. offices in the Burge build
ing on Market Square. The directors
passed a resolution extending their
thanks to Mr.. Burke for his valuable
services and advice and expressing their
regret that he found it necessary to
resign. Mr.. Kraft, who succeeds to the
vice presidency, is one of the heaviest
stockholders and was one of tho or
ganizers of the bank. The directors
expressed themselves last night as very
highly pleased with the remarkable
showing which the bank has made since
it opened last December, the present de-
posits being far beyond expectations.
The bank has eighty stockholders.
