GOES BACK TO CHICAGO.
Palmer, the cycle Thief, Confesses and
Then Returns Home.

The young man, Harry F. Palmer,
arrested here Tuesday evening on the
charge of stealing a wheel, has been
taken to Chicago. It is not likely that
there will be trial, since he has con-
fessed the crime. When first arrested
here it was merely on the suspicion of
theft, as he was seen by one of the Off
GERS attempting to sell a high grade
wheel for 500. After being watched TO!
few hours he was arrested and kept
until further particulars could be
learned. Wednesday morning a mes
sage was received from Chicago telling
the authorities to hold Harry F. Palm
er for stealing bicycle from F. A
Osman, of Chicago.
Several papers were found in the
clothes Of Palmer which showed thai
he was prominent man in Chicago
bicycle circles. He was at one time
president of the Zig Tag Bicycle club,
of Englewood, of which his wife was
first lieutenant. There were other cy
cling organizations in which he occu
pied conspicuous position.
Previous to this he had been having
some trouble with his farher-in-laW
and young fellow connected with the
same club. Philip Mauser. The al
legged undue attentions paid Mrs
Palmer by young Mauser was the cause
of the arrangement which has grow
up between husband and wife an
which has resulted in their separation
Mr.. Palmer's friends say that these
troubles, together with injuries receive
two years ago i'll fall from his whe@
while racing, left him in an unsoun1
state of mind.

A Rare Opportunity.

An opportunity to get the greatest of
all reference libraries, the AmericaDized
Encyclopedia Britannica at the whole
sale price is now offered to the people
of Kenosha and vicinity by the Mil
waukee Sentinel.
Some time ago the management Of
the Sentinel made arrangements With
the publishers of this great work for a
limited number of the sets, which they
are distributing for advertising pur-
poses in connection with their paper at
the wholesale cost, and the subscriber
is allowed the privilege of paying the
amount at the rate of only dime a
day.
They also furnish a guide outlining
special courses of reading which enables
any one to choose related articles and
thus gain a great fund of information in
a short time on the subject desired.
Their ten cents a day plan, unique
and practical, should enable any one to
obtain the work. They furnish each
subscriber with self registering dime
savings bank which also serves as a
calendar, and all the subscriber has to
do is drop in a dime once a day, and
they have the use of the complete set
while paying for it.
Two of the Se9ati3aeps representatives
are at the Grant Hotel and will take
pleasure in showing the work and eX
planning fully the proposition to any of
our readers upon application; or full
particulars may be obtained by adj
dressing the Sentinel Educational De-
partment, 80 Sentinel Building, Mil
Waukee.
AS the supply is limited to few
copies it will be necessary for any one
wishing to avail themselves of this OPP
portunity to act Immediately.

OUT ON A NOVEL TRIP.
Four Boys Bound for New Orleans Via I'll
Mississippi River

Four Boys Bound Tor New orleans VIA I'll
Mississippi River
There is a little boat lying in Ia
river, covered with q canvass ape
bearing the name of Pabst" which
on it's way to New Orleans, by way 4
the Mississippi river 1t is life DO Z,
and not long ago was in the servce
the Racine life saving crew, but VS.
condemned by the government on ac-
count Of little weakness in one end.
The boat was bought by q Racine
party, who planned to fit it up with
steam, but gave up the plan, and later
Mfr. Pabst, of Milwaukee, purchased it.
1t is now in his hands, and has just left
Racine where it has been undergoing
repairs preparatory to its present trip.
The party aboard the boat consists OF
four boys from Milwaukee, who have
been acquainted with the lakes for
some years, and who expect to take
this trip down the Father of waters
combining business with pleasure, visit
ing new country and at the same
time advertising the Pabst Brewing
company.
They certainly have an ideal way OF
making the voyage, the boat being a
good sailor, provided with oars and
capable of standing big sea. All the
provisions necessary for long outing
are stored in the hold Of the boat,
which is also provided with a canvass
that can be easily put up and taken
down. The boat can be made into a
pleasant house at any time. A little
stove is arranged that keeps things
comfortable when the canvass is up.
When the boys reach the Mississippi
they expect to depend largely on the
current to get them to New Orleans.
IF the weather is fine, they may con-
tinue their trip through the keys and
up the eastern coast, coming home by
way of the Hudson. The boys in the
party are: Captain, Charles Burkhart;
mate, T. A. Jorsch; A. Jorsch and
Charles Hoffman.

Donald of the Georgia Southern and Flor
ida is in the city.
None Of the roads will bring special
trains into the city to give the people of
the country along their routes opportuni-
ties for Christmas shopping. A passenger
official was asked yesterday If his road
intended putting on any special trains to
bring Christmas trade to the city, as is
being done on two lines running into
Macon. Merchants seem to think that
the railroads should run these trains, as
a large volume of business is brought into
the city by their means, but the views of
the official are not coincident with theirs
The railroads, that Is, the important lines
that run through more than two or three
large towns, make great mistake, it is
claimed, when they put on such trade
trains, as the merchants along their rou es
and of all the small towns at once raise
cry of discrimination in favor of the
place to which the excursions are run The
result is that all these towns begin clam
oring for similar trains, which it becomes
impossible to grant, and dissatisfaction
with the roads management is the re-
suit. 1t is manifestly unjust, they say
for a road to carry country merchants
goods to his station and then by special
trains take his customers to other places
to trade. The gentleman said he had seen
the plan tried, but that 1t does not work
we'll for any but the fortunate town that
secures the train.
