MRS. JULIA G. HAHN DEAD.

Mrs. Julia G.. Hahn, widow Of the
late James Hahn and a well known
resident of Kenosha, died Wednesday

to James Hahn and for many years she
lived in Illinois. To this happy un-

Browning and Howard Hahn of Keno
sha. The deceased came to Kenosha
about fourteen years ago and has made
her home with her son Edward Hahn,
an architect of this city.

START WORK ON
BIG PROJECT AGAIN
City Engineers Force Making Surveys
and Estimates for the Straight
ening of Main Street.

Strengthening out Main street and
building new bridge over the river,
is going to be one Of the big projects
to be handled by the Common Council
during the coming year. Mayor John
g. Joachim let the cat out Of the bag
this morning when he announced that
the men employed in the Office of the
city engineer were now surveying the
lines of the streets and estimates are
to be made at once of the cost OF MAX
ing the changes necessary to straight
en- the street and build the new bridge.
It is said that big manufacturing
concerns owning property along the
harbor are willing to meet the city half
way in movement to get the street
Strengthened out and new bridge
built. Harbor lines must be establish
ed under the direction Of government
engineers, but it is not thought that
the city will meet with any serious
difficulties in getting these lines taken
care of. Mayor Joachim declared this
morning that he was hopeful that the
surveys and estimates would be ready
for the consideration of the council
early in the new year and that the
work would be carried out before the
end Of 1919.

BADGERS MUST USE
EGG COAL OR NONE
Bulletin from State Fuel Administrator
Calls for Cooperation from
Dealers and Consumers.

The war is over, but the coal situa-
tion is still acute. This is the news
brought to Kenoshans by a bulletin
just received in the city by the county
fuel administrators and the local
press. The document comes from
the Offices of w. N. Fitzgerald, fed
oral fuel administrator for Wisconsin,
and reads as follows:
esThis office is receiving numerous
requests from retail dealers for chest
nut anthracite coal and it is utterly
impossible for us to meet all of the
demands owing to the fact that there
has been shipped to Wisconsin fifty
percent more egg coal than there was
last year and the shipments of chest
nut and stove sizes correspondingly
reduced. Every dealer is familiar
with the fact that Wisconsin S allot-
ment Of anthracite is over thirteen
per cent less than the shipments made
to this state in 1916, and with the
large quantity of egg coal shipped
very little nut and stove remains. This
condition cannot be remedied as the coal
is here and our entire allotment has
been completed. This situation pre-
walls in spite of our efforts to secure
for Wisconsin a much larger percent
age of nut coal so badly needed Cor
self feeding magazine stoves.
"There win not be any more anthra-
cite coal shipped to Wisconsin, other
than few carloads of all rail coal
from time to time. Therefore, in Is
suing priorities to retail dealers we
can only request shipments of anthra-
cite and then leave it to the dealer to
make his arrangements with the ship
ping company as to the sizes, bearing
in mind that at all times it will be
necessary to substitute egg coal for
the chestnut and stove to a much
greater extent than ever before.
eff in need of anthracite, the deal
err must take advantage Of the oppor-
tunity to secure egg coal now and
must impress upon his customers the
necessity of putting up with the in
convenience Of using this size in pref
erence to doing without. /"
