Revives Talk of Asylum.

heViFes LAX OF Asylum.
Officials of the county declare that
the increase shown by the report does
not indicate that insanity is on the in
crease in Kenosha county. 1t is stat
ed on the other hand that the increase
in the number of patients and the COM
sequent jump in the size of the bill
presented to the county, is merely an
other evidence of the continued growth
of Kenosha. There has been consider
able revival of the talk of establish
ing county asylum in this county,
since it is pointed out that Kenosha
county now has more than enough in
sane of its own to provide sanitar-
ium for them
Friends of such plan declare that
100000 would pay the interest on a
large sum of money and that this
could be we'll invested by the county
in the building of such an institution.
1t is also declared that such an in
stitution would be patronized by
many of the smaller counties of the
state and that this would aid in the
upkeep of the institution.

similar cost for last year. The bad

Announcement Made That
Deal Was Negotiated in
Chicago Friday. !
DETAILS NOT PUBLIC
Virginia Wulff Says Deal Is
Or1Dleted but Is Not Ready
to Make Announcement.

Miss Virginia Wulf announced this
morning that negotiations had been
practically closed in Chicago on Friday
for the erection of a 250-roem hotel
on the Wulff property at the corner of
Wisconsin and Church streets, and, it
was said that the work of construction
would go forward just as soon as ex-
listing leases on the property could be
taken care of. The facts. in regard to
the matter have not been given out in
any considerable detail apdb the state
ment of Miss Wulff is given without
comment. 1t is said that the entire
property, considered one of the finest
pieces of property in the business dis
trict of the city, will be utilized for
hotel purposes and that the hotel will
be one of the largest and most modern
in Wisconsin. 1t was stated by. Miss
Wulff that the hotel would be financed
by a group of Chicago bankers who
have been in Kenosha. and who have
had the matter under consideration for
many weeks.
Would Expect Some Local Stock.
"The negotiations for1the taking over
of this property for hotel purposes
were closed on friday Ilsaid Miss
Wulff. 81 cannot give5 oubgthe details
in connection with the transaction, but
the announcement will be made by the
Chicago men interested following the
signing of the papers which is. to take
place the first of next, week, ! have
every reason to believe that the hotel
will be built and that it will be a
credit to Kenosha and Wisconsin. The
plans for the building are. completed,
but do not care to give out these
plans at this time. The men backing
the project are so well known that the
announcement of their connection with
the project will leave no doubt as to
the plans being carried OUT We shall
seek some local support for the propo-
sition in the way of stock Because the
men who are backing it believe that
Kenosha should show some willingness
to support such project. We can say,
however, that the sale of local stock
is not necessary to the financing of the
proposition and it will go forward re-
SdIOISoS VI JAS IGCSpblOh given ~ ny
local people,"
Several Plans Working.
1t was admitted today that there
were several hotel propositions in the
making in Kenosha and that the an
nouncement of Miss Wulff had not been
unexpected by other parties who have,
been considering the hotel problem Of
the city. It is said that other parties
will withdraw from the field if given
the assurance that one real, honest-to-
goodness hotel will be erected here.
The Wulff property is admirably To-
Gated and it is such large piece of
ground that it would give a chance for
modern hotel with all the additional
facilities which might be desired. One
report said that the building would
have nine stores facing on Wisconsin,
street with the additional hotel en-
trance. This report was not confirmed
by Miss Wulf, who said that while the
plans were ready, she was not at lib
erty to discuss them. 1t is understood
that the formal announcements Of the
plan will be made within 2 fortnight.

Bogwilo on the List.
Perhaps the most interesting case
on the entire list is that of Julius
Bogwilo, who after being acquitted of
the murder of his wife on a plea of
emotional insanity, was adjudged in
sane and sent to the asylum for the
criminal insane. He is the only per-
son from Kenosha at this institution
and the bill for his care during the
year amounts to $131.22. Other per-
sons who have been arrested for vari-
Gus misdemeanors and who have been
adjudged insane have been sent to
other hospitals due to the fact that
this institution is crowded.

TEA co. HAS NO
RIGHTS IN STORE
This Is Finding of Municipal Court in
Ejectment Suit by III. l.. Emerson
VIII Go to Supreme Court.

Judgment for H. L. Emerson in his
ejectment suit against the Great Atlantic
& Pacific Tea Co. was rendered Saturday
by Judge Frank D. E. Stowe in the
court, but the court found for
Mr.. Emerson to recover but $500 for FIVE
months rent from Oct. /, 1920, whereas
Mr.. Emerson had notified the company
that the rent would be $50 a month after
Oct. i.
The company claimed the right to
occupy the store for one year from Oct.
1 under an option of renewal of the lease
on that date, and the case hinged on the
question of whether the company notified
Mr.. Emerson before the option expired on
Sept. 80 that it elected to renew the
lease.
1t appeared that the company sent a
man here from Manchester. n H., Sept.
80 to renew the lease. He did not find
Mr.. Emerson and so wrote him that the
company wished to renew the lease, reg
istered the letter and deposited it in the
postottice. The last delivery of the day
had been made, but a notice was placed
in Mr.. Emerson's box at the p0stofice
that there was a registered letter in the
Office addressed to him. He found the
notice in the box the next morning.
The company, through Attorney II. G..
Barber. claimed that what was done con-
stituted legal notice of a renewal of the
lease. but Attorneys O. B. Hughes and
NJ. F. Maurice for Mr.. Emerson claimed
that not having actually gotten the notice
inw the hands of Mr.. Emerson or any
agent of his before the option expired the
company had no further right to the
store. The court sustained the latter
view.
The Tea Co. took some exceptions which
| it is expected will carry the case to the
supreme court. Mr.. Emerson also took
, exceptions to the courts allowance of SAC
a month instead of $50 Meanwhile it is
expected that the Tea Co will remain in
the store until the case is decided by the
supreme court.

to the store yesterday morning, but he did
not notice then that anything had been
disturbed. In the afternoon, however, he
