WOMEN STAGE
FARE WRANGLE
Four Kenosha Women In
sist on Their Rights on
Market Street Car Tues
day Evening.
LAW SUIT is APT TO FOLLOW
Women Ordered OFF Car when They
Present Cash Receipts Given Them by
Conductor for Transfers and Refuse to
Pay Fare Again-Pay on Next Car.

There sure was E'tempest in a tea
pot" affair enacted Tuesday evening
aboard the 7:15 clock Market street
street-car. And it was all over fifteen
cents, but out of it may come fairly
large damage suit in the Circuit Court
in the near future, according to state
ments of those who were interested in
the episode
The trouble started when Mrs. Sy-
billa Zeitler, Mrs. Charles CRUDE, Mrs.
John Cole and Mrs. Chris Schwan, all
of them well known women of the
north side, boarded the Market str set
car from the interurban car and hama
ed to the conductor for their fares
what the official on the bigger car had
given them for transfers Three of
these papers were cash certificates and
Conductor Joseph Janke refused to
honor them.
Pay, or get off the carr was his
insistent demand to the women.
Women Defend Their Rights.
The women insisted that they had
asked the conductor OF the big car i,
for transfers. and that this.yWas what
had been given them. They main
tanned that they were within their
rights in refusing to pay second time
and also said that they would not get
off the car unless put off by force or
ordered off by the police.
The conductor stopped the car. He
called the supervisor who took up a
few minutes to investigate and then
upheld the conductor in his contention.
By this time the crowd Of passengers
aboard the car began to get restless.
Several Of them wanted their money
back SO that they could get out and
walk but this was ais . courteously re-
fused, LIZ spite Of this both the rep
resensstiyee Of the street car company
and the women remained obdurate.
Police Take a Hand.
A policeman was called and Officer
William Schmitt answered the call.
The four women, still insisting that
they were right in principle, declared
their willingness to obey the order of
the police officer and to leave the car
in his custody but they wanted it dis
tinctly understood that they were Ieav-
ing under protest and that they meant
to follow the case to the end. They
went over to the Office of the company
where the superintendent explained
that the big cars were operated by a
different" company and that they
could not be held responsible for their
mistakes.
The women were going to party
on the west side of the city and they
3ok the next car, paying nickel each
for their fare but retaining their cash
certificates to use as evidence in case
any suit is filed. They admitted this
morning that they were investigating
the case and intended to find out who
was to blame for their discontinue
and would demand satisfaction.

Patients.
OPENS Fight At FON DU LAC
Will Speak Before Annual Meeting Of
the Chairman of County Board Of the
State on Thursday Urging Building
Of Many New Institutions.

DR.. G. Windesheim, commissioner of
public health Of Kenosha, and one of
the veterans in the battle to rid Wis
consin Of tuberculosis, will outline
statewide campaign which will have
for its purpose the establishment of
county sanatorium in every county in
the state when he speaks before the
state association of county board chair
men at Fond du Lac on March 4th.
The drive for the erection of the sana-
toria is to be pushed with vigor this
year with the full force of the Wis
consin Anti tuberculosis Association
and other health organizations behind
it. Eleven counties of the state now
have their institutions and one tri-
county institution has been opened.
Several other counties have the erec-
ton of sanatoria under consideration.
James Martin, chairman of the Keno
sha county board, will attend the meet
ing.
Must Drive Home idea.
We want to drive home to the
chairmen of the county boards of the
state the need Of these institutions. -
said DR.. Windesheim this morning.
We want to teach that sanatoria for
the treatment Of tuberculosis are ere
ating assets for the county rather than
oh che
strong plea to these leaders of county
boards for the segregation of the PEG
pie who are treated for tuberculosis.
We want to drive home to these direc-
tors Of county thought and activities
the fact that it is impossible to sue
cessfully handle the treatment of tu-
berculosis patients in connection with
any other county institutions. It must
be pointed out to them that men who
can be saved for work are a liability
to county while those who are in
county institutions for the insane and
the paupers must continue to be assets
to the county. You can not mix these
two classes. It is not fair to either Of
them.
Big Program is Planned.
The association Of which Dr.. Win
desheim IS leader IS planning for 4
very EXTENDED program Of work during
the present year and It is the hope Of
the men leading in the work that the
number Of sanatoria in the state may
be doubled before the end Of the pres
ent year. Many counties are consid
ering the plans outlined and field
agents will be sent to all of these coun-
ties to urge the carrying forward Of
the work

the scene Of great excitement and
hustle and hurry Of active wariika
preparation Intensely patriotic, ils
volunteer companies were among the
very first to tender thcr services to
the State and to the coalcdcracy
On January II. 1861, only a few days
after the secession Of Mississippi two
companies from Columbus and one
from Lowndes COUNT haying re-

Pettus, proceeded by rail TO Mobile

built for himself a spacious and pala-
tial mansion, after an Italian model
with brick made by his own masons,
and lumber wrought by his own me-
chanics, under his own immediate
supervision.
IN 1862, his youngest son, Captain
2audle Blewett, having raised a COM
pany to take part in the great Con-
federate War, this noble and patriotic
father generously armed, uniformed
and equipped the whole company at
his own expense, only TO see his gall
liant boy fill a soldiers grave in one
Of the great battles of Virginia.
\ He bore the great losses caused By
khe Confederate war, which included
500 slaves, like Christian philosopher
nd accommodated himself to the
changed conditions of life without a
mtlmur or complaint
lis vigorous and well preserved
constitution resisted the encroach-
meuts of disease and age until he was
eighy-two years old, and then, after
a short, severe illness, he met death
like a Christian hero, with all the con
fidence and hope of his religious faith.
In an interview with the Rev Geo
Shaeffer, warm Methodist friend
just before his death, he said:
Brother Shaeffer, have shown
you how Baptist could live, and
now ! will show you how Baptist
can die
The irreproachable character OF
Major Thomas G. Blewett in his pub
lie and private life, and his rigid adj
herence to to honor, honesty, and
truth, placed him much above the
common level Of men, His cheerful
disposition and genial manners re-
lieved the strictness Of his high moral
standard, and made him one of the
kindest of friends and best of citizens
He was pure in heart, upright in life
