New Signs at
Railway Approach
Police Now Mark Broad Danger Signs
on the Pavement in Black
and White.

Railway crossings in the city of Ke-
nosha are being indicated by the
police department with broad diagonal
lines in black and white.
The crossing is indicated at a suf-
ficient distance to warn the motorist
that the railway tracks are near.
The warning is not so necessary to
home travellers as it is for out-of-
town visitors or for the traffic that
passes through the city. For such,
it is believed that the diagonal lines
on the pavement Will be a great help
in avoiding accidents.

LEFT FORTUNE
FOR HOSPITAL
Photographic Will of C.
Bruins Filed for Probate
in County Court.
WANTS GRAVE KEPT UP
Leaves All for Catholic Hos.
7 pitaI; Requests that Grave
Be Kept Green.

A Photographic will, the first one to
be entered for probate in Kenosha
county for many years, was filed late
Friday afternoon when a will drawn
by the late Christoph Bruins, wealthy
bachelor, who died suddenly several
weeks ago while climbing the stair,
way at the Grandview hotel, was filed
by Attorney G. A. Mittelstaed. The
will leaves the entire estate, amount
ing probably to $4,000, after the fu-
neral expenses and debts are paid,
for the establishment of Catholic
hospital.
The will, however, is not witnessed
having been drawn by the deceased
in his own handwriting and most
interesting legal point will be raised
as to whether or not the document
can be recognized by the court.
Z Found in Deposit Box.
Action had been started to settle
the estate as if the deceased had died
intestate When no will was brought
forth after the deceased had been
Nader, sister, acting for all of the
relatives, filed petition for admin
istration,, asking that the Northwest
ern Loan land Trust company be ap-
pointed as administrator of the es-
tate. This action was taken by the
court.
In looking over the effects of the
deceased, the will was found in his
safety deposit vault at the bank, thus
changing the entire method which
much be adopted for settlement of
the estate.
Left All for Hospital.
The will is most interesting doc
ument. The deceased had evidently
copied much of it verbatim from 9
regular will form, as the first para
graphs correspond with the usual
phraseology of wills, directing that
first all debts and funeral expenses
be paid,
The will then directs that the en-
tire remainder Of the estate be given
to "some Catholic hospital" with only
two provisions, namely that the hos
pitalHis to- be known as the Christoph
hospital and that it is his request
that the Sisters, in charge of the
hospital, take care ito keep his grave
green"
No mention is made of any of his
legal heirs. An addition to the will
was added, in which Charles c. Brown
was named as administrator and a
law firm was nance. to be employed
to settle the estate.
glgn Law Leaves Doubt. sRs3
The will was drawn in 1910. IT. is
signed by the DECEASED but there are
no. witnesses named.
The law touching on Photographic
wills in Wisconsin leaves an interest
ing question to > be decided by the
courts regarding this document. While
the general rule is that Photographic
wills cannot be admitted to probate
except under most extraordinary con-
ditions, the records of the courts re-
veal that Photographic will was adj
mitted after an action taken to the
supreme court in 1895 and it is pos
sible that this situation may exist
here.
If the Photographic will is not held
valid, the estate will be divided among
the heirs, brothers and sisters, none
Of whom was mentioned in the will.

LAY PLANS FOR
EDUCATION WEEK
KenosIa to Take Part in
Nationwide Observance
of Education Week.
SCHOOLS TO TAKE PART

American Education Week, Novem-
Der II to %, is to be widely observed
in Kenosha with special programs and
ceremonies from many schools, inst1-
tutions, and organizations. Plans are
already on foot to get every organized
body in Kenosha interested in the pro-
ject, and it is expected that the Ke-
nosha Civic council and American
Legion post here will take it up and
push it with extensive and elaborate
plans for a full observance.
The week was initiated in 1920 by
the United States Bureau of Education
and was proclaimed in succeeding
years by President Harding and Presl-
dent Coolidge. Kenosha has always
taken leading part in the state cele-
brations and it is also expected that
this years observance will be as i'm
portant as those heretofore.

An Unsolicited Testimony

One of the old non-partisai en-
ployeS of the Senate, a gentleman
who has been in the service OF the
senate for a period of fifty-six years,
writing to a friend in Wyoming says
that he is glad to know that this
friend is aiding in helping to reflect
Senator Warren. We quote from his
letter: Certainly this should not be
a difficult task, if patriotism and
common sense prevail in the State, as
they surely must. Wyoming has the
best chance that will be given to
any state to send a hero of the Civil
War to the Senate. And in the long
line of veterans of that War who
have sat in the Senate none have
been o worthy and efficient than
Senator Warren.
Il do not know anything about the
political conditions in Wyoming or
the character of the opposition to
him, but l am familiar with the SEN
ator's whole career in the Senate.
1 know Of his early training in the
Committee oc Appropriations with
such leaders as Allison, Cullom,
Hales, and German, and l feel that
with his mastery management of
great supply bills his service to the
Nation is an asset too valuable to be
put in jeopardy. Nor is his useful
ness as a Senator confined to the
Committee on Appropriations. AS a
member Of the important Committees
on Military Affairs and Public Build
ings and Grounds he has shown him
self to be a skilled legislator whose
,ocs to the body would be nothing
less than a pujiic calamity.
In my fifty-si; years of continu-
Gus service with the Senate in an
observant, non-political' capacity, this
S the strongest tribute l have ever
paid a living Senator, and / have
done it simply because he so richly
deserves it."

MORE ARRESTS
FOR CAMP FIRES

A warrant has been placed in the
hands of Sheriff Herring of Albany
county for a sheep herder who left
a camp fire on the Medicine Bow
National Forest. Evidence is being
worked up on a second case where
a hre was left on the west side of
the Medicine Bow Forest in Carbon
county. and it is expected that the
arrest will follow in a few days.
Forest Guard Colwell reported a
smoke Thursday afternoon on radial
o which is due north from Medicine
Bow Peak. He estimated the To-
cation to be in Sawmill Park. Rang
er Schreibeis at the Bow r. S. was
communicated with Immediately and
he had already received wore of the
fire from ranchmen who had hurried
to the scene. There was difficulty
with telephone communications and
a meager report vas received at
eight o'clock Friday morning to the
effect thai the fire was under con
troll. Junior Forester Harmon made
a night ride from Brooklyn Lake on
Thursday to get to the fire.
The conditions continue very dry
with a high fire hazard not only in
the Nj licinc Bow N. +. but through
out the region. On account of the
pleasant weather it is expected that

First Annual Picnic
Old-Time U. p. Workers
Denver Next Saturday

The old-time employees and pen
sioners of the Union Pacific system
will hold their first annual picnic at
Elitch's Gardens in Denver under the
auspices of Old Timers club number
2 of Denver next Saturday. Several
members from the club which is
composed of members of this district,
club number six of which Henry
Perrett is president will attend the
Denver picnic. Mr.. Perrett will leave
Rawlins tomorrow evening.
With President Carl r. Gray and
General Manager w. NJ. letters as
hosts, and other high officials of the
road assisting in extending a well
come to the old timers, the biggest
get-together in Union Pacific history
is forecast.
, 1924-09-04

unless a rain storm occurs, which is
not likely according to the weather
man, large numbers of visitors will
flock to the Forest Sunday and Mon
day, which is Labor Day. All Forest
officers and key men are being in
structed to lay aside other work for
fire patrol and i~ncidently they will
not be able to take advantage of the
legal holiday unless it rains. Prompt
arrests of anyone detected leaving a
fire or being in any way responsible
will follow.
The National Forest welcomes rec
reational visitors but the prime pur-
pose of Forest Service is protection
of the valuable body of timber under
its care and there is consequently a
strict insistence upon care with fire
and compliance with the law.

visit he vas the recipient of a great
deal of attention. Brigadier General
John NJ. Jenkins, Commandant of FIT.
Russell, gave a dinner in his honor,
and the Cheyenne Chamber Of Com
merce rendered him a luncheon at
the Plains hotel. More than 200
prominent citizens of Cheyenne and
Wyoming assembled in the Plains
dining room. General Pershing was
welcomed by the Governor and the
Mayor and in reply made a brief but
exceedingly strong and patriotic ad-
dress. He left no room for question
as to his attitude toward prepared
ness, directing attention to the help
less state in which our people found
themselves prior to all of our wars,
and said that hundreds of millions
in money and almost countless hui
mar lives might have been saved
by the Nation having been in a prop
er defensive position. He congrat-
ulated Governor Ross upon his at
titude toward National Defense Day,
and spoke of Wyoming's achieve
ments in all matters pertaining to
the great war.
General Pershing calls Cheyenne
his home. The %habitation of a
soldier is where duty calls; home is
where loved ones dwell. At the
time of the terrible tragedy that
struck from his life so much of love
and happiness, he "a away from
the Preside at San Francisco in the
performance of his duty on the Mex
lean border, but his darling wife and
girls were taken to their old home
at Cheyenne where they rest in
peace. That Is why Cheyenne is
home to General Pershing.
The General urged with all his
power that Wyoming respond to the
call of the War Department on Sep
TENDER 18th and show the metal of
which she is made.
