had finished her last song the conduc-
tor of the Minneapolis orchestra, who
happened to attend the concert, tender
ed her an engagement for the following
season as soloist with his orchestra.
Within the very first season of her
career, Miss Gainnini appeared no less
than ID times in New York City alone
During the first season after her de-
but Miss Gainnini made more than 40
appearances throughout the country
including eight symphonic concerts and
engagements with three Of the largest
festivals in the country.
Engaged by Orchestras.
During the same season Miss Clan
mini was the only vocalist to be en-
gagged as soloist by both the New Y ork
Symphony and the New York Philhar-
monte.
Within Is months of her debut Miss
Gainnini conquered London in two SEN
sational recitals and became establish
ed as an artist of international repu-
tation.
For the coming season Miss Clan
mini will have at least ID re-engage-
ments from last season. Today, less
than two years after her debut, Miss
Giannini is one of the most sought
for artists before the public, with many
countries bidding for her artistic serv-
ices.
Speaking of Giannini, am remind
ed of what the London Daily Express
recently said about her concert in Lon
don: ITO put it mildly, Dusolina Clan
mini is quite one of the most remark
able new sopranos that London has
heard for many months" And the
Daily Mail added: "There was no fault
so that we saw the rising Of new
star"
/. am wondering how many of the
nearly $4,000 people in Kenosha care
sufficiently about the best things In
life to prove it by gladly buying tick
cts which will not only assure fine
season this year but also in the years
to come.
The other attractions on the Keno
sha Artists course sponsored by Mrs
A. H. Lance and Mrs. N. A. Rowe will
include Tito Schipa, tenor who re-
turns to Kenosha by popular demand
Nov. 20; Renee Chemet, violinistic
genius; Anna Pavlowa, the incompar-
able and her exquisite Ballet Russo
and Moriz Rosenthal, the world famous
pianist. Both Anna Pavlowa and Moriz
Rosenthal have announced that this
will be their farewell tour in America
Kenosha admirers are very fortunate
to have the opportunity to enjoy one
more performance before they retire.

FORTUNE NEVER
TO BE CLAIMED
John Johnson, Who Died in
Trevor, Had Fortune
In Sweden.
KEPT DELAYING TRIP

A fortune in Sweden awaiting Ke-
noshan will never be claimed.
John Johnson, the man who was
found dead in his room at the Trevor
hotel on last Thursday night, was the
heir to a bequest in Sweden, which
he had delayed to claim. He had been
notified of his inheritance many years
ago and had accepted the notification,
according to the story which he told
his friends in this county but had
continued to delay to go to the old
country to claim it.
He never gave any idea as to the
amount of the fortune except to de-
clare that it was considerable and to
indicate that it would make him in
dependently wealthy.
Had Worked as Laborer.
He had come to America many years
ago, seeking fortune in the "land of
opportunity" but he had continued to
be laborer here and had spent his
money as fast as he made it, 1t is said.
He had talked continually of how he
intended to return to Sweden "soon''
to claim his fortune but kept delaying
the day of his departure until finally
death put an end to his plans.
johnson was on his way to accept a
place as farmland in the Trevor
community when he became i'll at the
Trevor hotel. He asked for room
which was given to him and short
time later, an attendant going to the
room found him dead.
He has some relatives in Chicago
who have been Motif ID Of his death
and who are expected to come to Ke-
nosha to take charge of his funeral
The remains are at the Crossin mort
uary on Wisconsin street.

Color Scheme For the Interior

in the position it occupied eighty or
more wears ago with teams drawn by
oxen hauling grain.
In the center will appear the old
wooden bridge of that day, and to the
right, the knoll with four small puiio-

A. Carlson, who with Mr.. Lindl Sc
lected the evergreens for the Market
street frontage.
Eyergreens were chosen for their
year round effect and they are well
adapted to the classic architecture OF
the building.
TIL scheme is simple and formal, but
we'll studied and the planting consists
of arbor vitae, Virginia juniper, pitt
zeriana, sabinas, glaucas and mugno
pine, ranging about five feet IN he1gnt
at the building and then gradually
banked down to blend into the grass
line. The scheme at the east and west
sides will be similar but on decreas-
ing scale, while the north end and the
remainder Of the east and west ends
will be amplified with deciduous shrub
berry of various kinds.
Are Planting Shrubbery.
Seeding and .sodding of the block
will proceed as fast as the installa-
ton of walks will permit, and owing
to the restricted size of the block the
grass will be carried right to the very
curb line.
The interior Of the building is be-
ing crowded just as fast as first class
workmanship will permit.
The present working force consists
of 26 plain plasterers, ornamental
plasterers, 8 molders and modelers,
s tile settlers, plate glass settlers, .
plumbers, cement workers, 16 ter
razzo workers, carpenters, and
painters, with proportionate number
Of laborers to supply the artisans and

in process Of construction at the mill.
1t will be doweled, mortise and tenon
construction set in glue so as to be-
come an indestructible unit in the
building.
1t is the present intention to have
the decorators start work in the jail
building next week and work into the
different departments of the court
house just as rapidly as the drying
process of the plaster is. completed.

JAPAN To WATCH
FOR QUAKE SIGNS
viii Use U. S. Invention in
Effort to Prevent ReCur-

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
TOXIC, September 1S.-Japan, more
severely mauled by earthquakes
than any other land plans to turn
to in earnest to study the tremors,
means of forecasting them. and meth
DDS for mitigating their disastrous
effects.
Plans and estimates for system
of archaeological research stations, TO
be placed in nine separate districts
particularly affected by earthquakes,
will be laid before the Imperial Diet
when it convenes next December.
DR. Imamura. head of the seismo-
logical department of the University
of Toxic, believes that earthquakes
can be forctold with accuracy Sutt-
cient to permit precautions that VIII
lessen their i'll effects. This Will be
possible through the equipment of
these nine stations with the most
modern archaeological instruments
Every known method Will be used 10
study formations and movements OF
the earth which may precipitate a
disastrous tembIor.
Use L. $. Invention.
The feature of this equipment Will
be an American apparatus for record
ing movements of the earth crust, de-
signed by DIR. A. \. Nicholson. head
of the department of physics of the
University of Chicago. This consists
of two iron pipes each 502 feet long
and 6 inches in diameter. laid across
each other; imbedded in concrete and
iron casing. and filled with oil ana
water The instrument, according TO
Dr. Imamura, is SO designed that the
movement of the lines formed by the
meeting of the oil and water in the
pipes can be observed by means or an
arrangement of prisms The theory
is that when the lines have shifted
to certain positions the early APP
proach of an earthquake is to be eN-
pected. DR.. Imamura says. however,
that the exact time of the visitation
carnot be foretold. An eight-acre
field will he needed for the installa-
ton of each station.
