Election.
WILL COST CITY s355,0OO
Council After Second Argument Con
firms Employees of Health Board with
Increased salary-Curfew Law Goes
Back to the Ordinance Committee.

The people of the whole city arc to
decide the question as to whether or
mot Main street shall be Strengthened
out and the new bridge built over the
Kenosha river as the common council
at its meeting on Monday night vot-
ed unanimously to refer the matter to
the voters at a referendum, to be held
at the time Of the general city election
on April 1st.
City Engineer Hurtgen made a report
to the council estimating the total cost
of the work planned including the
bridge and its approaches, depression
of the tracks, changes of grades on
Main street and Grand avenue, and
the replaying of the pavement at
$400,O00 Of this amount $4,000 is to
be paid by the Northwestern Railway
Company, $4,000 by the Wisconsin Gas
and Electric Company and the remain
ing $355,000 by the people Of the city.
The referendum is asked to give the
council power to issue bonds in the
amount Of 100000 to meet the portion
of the cost to be paid by the city.
Members Of the council appeared to be
heartily in favor of the plans as sug-
gested.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1919-03-06
Ordinances are Received.

The council had no new ordinances
before it. One was the Curfew or
dinance and it was referred to the com
mittee on Judiciary, with the City At
torney added with view Of having
some changes made in it in order to
have it meet the desires of the mem
bers of the council. The other was the
ordinance providing for the issuance OF
school bonds in the amount of 100000
for the construction Of the new Wash
ington school. This ordinance will be
finally acted upon at the next meeting
of the council.
There was plenty Of routine business
before the council. Three petitioners
asked for the renting of taxes paid
for snow shoveling, holding that no
snow had been shoveled. A petition
asked for the paving of Fremont ave-
nue. between Collins street and Selma
avenue and it was referred to the
street assessment committee. This
committee turned down the petition
for the paving of South Chicago street
between Strong street and Park Row
on account Of the fact that the major
ity of the property owner shad remon-
strated against the improvem mt. It
recommended the paving of Garden
street from Victoria street to Rowland
avenue, and the paving of. North Chica-
go street from Grand avenue to Bron-
son street. Plans for these works
will be provided at once. The commit
tee read report providing that South
Rowland avenue be paved to width
of SO feet and that the catch basins in
stalled some time ago be changed to
meet this plan. On the report of the
sewer and paving committee Cameron
Court was included in the list of streets
to be improved this year.
Promise to Push Public Work.
In response to a petition from the
Trades and Labor Council the council
went on record as being favorable to
the advancing of public Improvement
work as rapidly as possible with the
understanding that all work planned
before the war will be carried out as
rapidly as possible.
The council unanimously approved a
motion to pay the expenses of Mayor
Joachim who is attending the confer
enee in Washington. The Lockwood
Oil Company was granted permit to
install a service station on Salem ave-
nue. with the understanding that it
will be installed under the direction of
the city building department..

Confirm Health Board Action.

After another long argument and the
airing of personalities between Alder
man Wachs and DR.. w. E. Nelson,
the City Food Inspector, the council
confirmed the action of the Health
Board in the employment of DR.. Nelson
and Nuisance Inspector Gustave Kell-
man at increased salaries. Under the
action of the council DIR. Nelson will
be paid at the rate of $3.50 a month
and Nuisance Inspector Kellman at the
rate of $500 month. The council
spent some time discussing a recon-
mendation Of the Health Board for the
employment of another visiting nurse.
DIR. Windesheim of the Health Depart
ment appeared before the council and
declared that such nurse was needed
greatly in order to give the care need
ed in the homes of the working people
Of the city. He declared that this
nurse not only would give this care
but she would also serve as teacher
for girls in the Junior high schools.
The whole matter was referred back
TO the committee with orders to bring
report at the rext meeting of he

RINGING BROS. And
BARNUM & BAILEY
Mammoth Shows Are Now
Combined And Announce
Exhibitions At Early.
Date

The worlds biggest amuse-
ment institution, Ringing Bros.
ad Barnum & Bailey Shows
Combined, is to exhibit after
noon and night at Little Rock,
Saturday Oct. IS.
The consolidation of the
Worlds Greatest Shows" and
the Greatest Show on Earth"
in one circus of colossal size,
constitutes the amusement sur
prise of the country. Nothing
to approach this gigantic, new
circus has ever before toured
America. 1t has been formed by
merging the pick and the cream
of all that was biggest and best
in the two famous shows. 1t
would be folly to attempt to
enumerate its many wonders.
Some idea of the enormous
scale upon which features are

presented may be had when it
is stated that a quarter of a
million pounds of elephants
take part in a single act; in
other wOrds-six times as many
of the big-eared giants than
have ever before been seen in
one main-tent exhibition. All
else to be seen is in proportion.
The arenic stars embrace all
the worlds foremost circus per-
formers. There are three hours
of novelties and big sensational
acts. The menagerie is far and
away the most colossal ever
travelled. For inStance-a herd
of eight giraffes are exhibited in
place of the two or three shown
in the past. The great tourna-
ment which opens the main
tent program, is the most mag
nificent thing in pageantry yet
produced in America. Hundreds
upon hundreds of geOrgeously
cOstumed. characters and beau
tiful horses take part in it. The
morning street parade is the
longest and most brilliant ever
given anywhere. 1t is a supen-
deous super-circus that battles

1t was busy times in Police
Court Circles this week and
the new City Marshal, ]. w.
Haygood had his hands full.
Miles Allen plead guilty to

fine.
Cal Dunlap thought it a
shame to allow all of the splen-
did pasturage on Brinkley
streets to go to ruin and al
lowed his stock to run out and
he got a $3.50 fine for that.
AS a result of too much talk
ing there was a family mis-
understanding between the
Moshiers and Roscoes and Mrs.
Rascoe had Mckinley Moshier
arrested charged with fighting
her. He plead mot guilty" but
the Court said guilty" and
fined him $500 and costs.
