PATRoNIZES HOME INDUSTRIES.
Highway Committee Purchases a JEFF
ferry Quad for Work on the
Roads of the County.

Members of the county board Of
Kenosha county evidently believe in
the protection Of home industries as
this morning the highway committee
Of the board closed a deal for the pur-
chase of a Jeffrey "Quad' truck
which is to be added to the equipment
of the road building department of the
county. The "quad" was declared to
be the most satisfactory general pur-
pose truck found by the members of
the committee after they had looked
over more than dozen different
trucks. The "quad" will be deliver
ed to the county before the first of
May and it is to be used not only for
repair work on the roads but also for
hauling materials for the new work
that is to be done. The county will pay
$3,15 for the truck.

Send DELEGATES TO MADISON
County Will Be Entitled to Two Dele
gates to Convention on Apr. 26 Which
Will Name Republican Candidate
to Oppose LaF GILLETTE in Campaign.

If Kenosha county Republicans are
to have a voice in the naming of a
Republican candidate for United
States senator the members Of the
party in the city must get busy. The
county chairman of the party has re-
ceived the tentative call for a conven-
tion Of the Republicans to be held at
Madison on April Goth for the purpose
Of suggesting candidate for United
State senator. Kenosha county will
be entitled TO send two delegates to
this convention and as the convention
will be informal the state leaders have
suggested that an informal conference
of the Republicans be held in this
county to select the two delegates.
The convention at Madison is going
to be a spirited convention. The con-
servative Republicans who are plan
ming to name candidate to defeat
Senator LaFollette in the primaries
are decidedly active and there are
several candidates being mentioned.
II is possible that Governor Philip
may be asked to give up his intention
to be q candidate for reelection as
governor in order to enter the race for
United States senator. Malcolm JEFF
frs of GAINESVILLE, and John M White
head of the same city, are both open
ly campaigning for the convention
nomination and it is declared that
there may be several other candidates
in the field before the convention
meets week after next.
The organization of Kenosha county
by the Republicans for the spring and
fall campaigns is now being planned
by the leaders of the party and steps
are being taken for the organization
of a Republican club which will be
county wide in its operations. During
the past few days representatives of
the Wisconsin Republican club, with
headquarters in Milwaukee, have been
in Kenosha and they have secured
many individual members for the state
organization. Within a short time a
call will be sent out to all members Of
the state organization asking them to
meet and form club for the county.
There will be much work to be done
in the fall campaign. Indications
are that the presidential campaign will
be one of the most bitterly contested
in the political history of the nation
and Kenosha county Republicans will
be expected to have a part in it. It
is the plan of the promoters of the
new county organizations to have
clubs in every ward and town in the
county with the understanding that
these clubs will bear the burden of the
campaign in this section. The county
Republican committee is working in
complete harmony with this plan of
organization and it will take an
active part when the call for the
county meeting is issued.
Tt is probable that the county club
viii be organized shortly after the
senatorial convention is held in Madi-
son.

Louis VOgt, Prominent in
Salem, Claims He Married
An Adventures i'm Chi:
cage Four Years Ago.
We'd TO ExTORT MONEY

Alleging that he had been the victim
of an adventures who had married him
for the sole purpose of extorting money
from him, Louis Vogt, well known
farmer of the town of Salem, more thar
fifty five years of age, filed suit in the
municipal court this morning demand
ing divorce from his wife, Irene Vogt.
The couple were married in Chicago
October IA, 1912, and the complaint
made by the husband is decidedly sem
sational. He declares that he knew
nothing of the character of the woman
when he married her, but that within
a few days after the marriage he dis
covered that she was an adventures
and that she married him with the sole
intent of extorting money from him.
If the allegations of the complaint
are true, Mrs. Vogt was not highly sue
cessful, as in his complaint Vogt de-
clares that all the money he paid her
before she deserted him less than two
months after the marriage amounted to
but 5000. Vogt declares that within a
week after his wife had promised to
love, honor and obey him, she violated
her marriage vows by proceeding to get
intoxicated. He declares that he pro-
tested against such action, but that the
woman became intoxicated and remain
ed in this condition until the 18th Of
November in 1912 when he met her de-
mands and paid her the 5000 she de-
manded. On the same day the woman
left the Vogt home in Salem and dis
appeared and in his complaint Vogt de-
clares that he has neither heard or seen
anything of her since.
Mrs. Vogt is declared to be thirty
six years of age and decidedly comely
woman. 1t is thought that she is now
living in Chicago, but efforts on the
part of the attorneys for Vogt to locate
her have been without effect.
In his complaint Vogt declares that
he has property to the value of $4,000.
1t is not expected that the wife will
make any answer to the complaint or
appear in court to protest the granting
of the divorce.

TEACH MOTHERHOOD DUTIES.
Two University Women are in Town to
Establish Schools to Perfect
Efficiency in Mothers.

tsThe child welfare circle of the Ma
tional Congress of Mothers makes a
strong appeal to every father and moth
er of intelligence, said Miss Marian
Spencer of the national congress who
with Miss Esther Germer, (both are
University of Wisconsin womenl. is in
Kenosha to organize circles. 1t is in
interesting in this connection to know
that Miss Spencer is granddaughter
of the late Robert G. Spencer of Mil
waukee who founded the Spencerian
system of penmanship and who, until
his death recently, was head of the
Spencerian Business college of Mil
Waukee.
"The child welfare circle is the only
department of the congress- contin-
ued Miss Spencer, (Which takes up a
definite and systematic study of the
principles and methods which should be
understood to properly rear, train and
safeguard children. The circle makes
a strong appeal in that it gives a
definite and concrete idea for bringing
children to the highest point of devel-
opment, physically, mentally and NOR
ally.
"The circle is designed especially fo1
the individual mother who is seeking
information that will assist herr in
solving her own peculiar problems in
child rearing.
"This department is to assist in
studying for the greatest of al profess
sions, motherhood. Efficiency in this
profession is fully as difficult to attain
as in any of the sciences, and scientific
motherhood is really becoming more
and more reality.
Ono longer do we believe when a
child is failure mentally, morally or
physically that it is a visitation of
Providence. Instead, we know that it
is the result of another failure - the
failure Of the mother in whose charge
the child was given to give him proper
care and so properly to develop and
lead him through adolescence into
dQulGnOOQ.
"The child welfare circle is uni.
versity for mothers where systematic
study of the child is made along pre-
scribed lines.
cit is all too true that many moth
ers' clubs come to nothing through a
lack Of well defined courses of study
This the child welfare circle will fur
nish. -
The Misses Germer and Spencer are
to be in Kenosha for a few days and
today are comforting with Mrs G. N.
Tremper, president of the Parent
Teachers association council, allied
with the Wisconsin Congress Of Moth
ers and others interested in the work.
They hope and expect to arrange for
the establishment of number of the
circles before leaving Kenosha.

WILLIAM. BULLAMoRE DEAD.
Pioneer Of Kenosha County Died at
the Home of His Son
Monday Afternoon.

William Bullamore, aged eighty-four
years, one of the pioneer settlers of
Kenosha county and resident of the
village of Somers for the past fifteen
years, died at the home of his son,
James Bullamore, at Somers Just after
neon Monday Death came as a result
of a general breaking down due to
advanced age. Mr.. Bullamore was a
native of England, where he was born
November 18th, 1881, but he came to-
the town of Brighton as young man
and he resided there until 1870 when
he removed to Lake county, and he
resided near the state line for many
years. He was man of deep religious
nature and very active in the work
of the Methodist Episcopal church.
For some time he served as lay min
lister in the church preaching at some
of the churches in Northern Illinois.
Nearly fifteen years ago he removed
from Winthrop Harbor to. Somers. He
is survived by two sons, James and
Albert Bullamore, who are in charge
of the store at Somers, one daughter,
Miss Zene Bullamore, who lives at
Somers and one daughter, Mrs. E. E..
Pearson, who resides near Winthrop
Harbor.

ACTIVE IN RELIGIOUS WORK
Deceased Was Widow Of Late Rev.
Lucien G. Lance and Had Resided in
Kenosha for Many Years-FuneraI
Held at Denver This Afternoon.

Mrs. Georgeanna Hasel Lance, aged
seventy-seven years, widow of the late
Rev. Lucien Lance, and for many years
one of the most prominent women of
Kenosha, died at the home of her
daughter, Mrs. John Fl. Bradbury, in
Denver, COL, late Thursday afternoon
following long illness. Mrs. Lance
had made her home in Denver for the
past ten years. For many months she
had been in feeble health and some
days ago members of the family were
summoned to her bedside in anticipa-
ton of the end. Mr.. and Mrs. A. H.
Lance of this city, were with her when
the final summons came.
The death of Mrs. Lance marks the
passing of a woman who had much to
do with the upbuilding of the social and
religious life of Kenosha. A devoted
Christian woman, she had been active
for years in the affairs Of st. Mat
thew's parish. She had kept in close
touch with all of the work of the
parish even after failing health
forced her to give up an active inter-
est in the work.
Mrs. Lance was daughter of the
late DIR. Andrew Hasel, prominent as
practicing physician at Charleston,
South Carolina. She was born in
Charleston and educated in the schools
there. Shortly after she had complet-
ed her education she was married to
the Rev. Lucien G. Lance, a minister
of the Protestant Episcopal church.
Following their marriage they lived
for a short time at Frederick, Mary
land, and later at Frankfort, Ken
lucky. In 1872 Mr., Lance was called
to become rector of ST. Matthew IS
church in this city and at that time
the Lance family home was established
in Kenosha. Later Mr.. Lance served
as professor and as chaplain of KEN
per Hall. He died in the early nineties.
Mrs. Lance took a great interest in
the church work with her husband and
for years she was one of the most ac-
tive of the women of st. Matthew s
parish. Even after the death of her
husband she continued to be leader
in the work of the women in the
church.
Ten years ago she went to Denver
in hopes that the milder Colorado
climate would improve her health and
she had since made her home there.
She is survived by three sons, A. HI.
Lance of Kenosha; Lucien G. Lance
of San Francisco; Daniel H. Lance,
Kenosha, and three daughters, Mrs.
John III. Bradbury of Denver; Mrs.
Clarence N. Henderson of Minneapolis
and Miss Caroline Lance, who made
her home with her mother in Denver.

KENOSHA FAR IN THE LEAD.
Error Is Discovered in Report of the
Sale of Red Cross Seals in
KenCsha.

kenosha has been misjudged. Reports
given out on Monday by Miss Louise
Cottrell of the Associated Charities
which organization was in charge &C the
Red Cross seal sale in Kenosha for 1915
showed that the receipts from sales
amounted to but $692.51 and this report
put Kenosha in third place among the
cities of her class in the state. It is all
a mistake. Kenosha is still leading in
this great humane work and what is
more her lead this year is just as COM
handing as it has been in former years
and even more so. When the figures
for the sale were gone over again today
it was found that an error had been
made in that one big department of
sales had not been reported The cor
rected report shows the amount of the
sales in Kenosha for 1915 to have been
$987.51. This takes away the fancied
victory Of Oshkosh and Racine over
Kenosha and leaves this city second
only to Milwaukee. The way that the
error was possible was that the sales
were handled both by the "Charities /"
and by the health department and an
item of $500 had not been counted in
when the final report was made up.
The failure Of Kenosha to lead the
state had been a disappointment to
many people who have been interested
in the battle against the white plague
and these people are rejoicing today
to know that the Kenosha banner is
again at the very front of the ranks in
the state.
