The mayor was DESTROYS of getting
rid of the ordinances relating to the
electric road and for this reason ho
thought they should get together and
lay all these proposed ordinances on
the table and in this way they would
be able to meet the Electric people
with clean hands.
Barney McGivern brought up his ole
hobby of Lake Forrest, and as some OF
the aldermen were getting tired, the
subject was dropped.
The next business was to open tie
bids of different parties to furnish wOOG
to the city. Nicholas Pirsch had the
lowest bid ($3.75 per cord), and he re-
ceived the contract.

GAVE THE CHIEF POINTERS.
Two Well Known Society Ladies Have
Their Eyes Opened.

Tive we'll known ladies of the city
went to the police Office this morning
for the purpose of seeking some relief
for an habitual drunkard who was
lately run in by one Of the city officers.
The women explained to the chief that
it was4no fault Of the man, but the
fault lay wholly in the fact that there
were saloons in the city which sold
their husbands and fathers too much
liquor and they assured the chief that
this was certainlysthe case in regard to
the man for whom they were interced-
ing The chief listened to their
Of city government and then
assured the ladies that they were en-
tirelycright il all that they had said,
but they were not practical enough.
He proceeded to give these kindly dis
posed women some pointers about the
work that they mightsdo. He assured
them that there were a large number
Of worthy poor whom they could do
great deal of good for. The women
finally left the office, deciding that
their efforts in behalf of law and order
were not appreciated.

very next meeting. after Mr.. R. had
left your august presence, you wheeled
right around and recinded that motion
and left it just as your predecessors
had fixed it. Now, after the poor fell

happy in, you kicked 1t all over. Was
that fair square deal? And the vote
was uninamous each time.

VIOLENTLY INSANE,
Former Kenosha Nan in "a hospital 11
Chicago.
After this council adjourned.

Chicago.
William Ketchum, former resident
of this city but now a resident of Chi
cago, is violently insane and has been
confined in the detention hospital foe
treatment. Ketchum has many friends
and relatives III this city who will be
greatly panied to hear of his misfor-
tune.
He went to Chicago a number OF
years ago, and short time later was
appointed on the police force. His
duty was performed in such a manner
that he soon won the admiration and
esteem Of his fellow officers and super
iors. A few months ago his actions
became peculiar but he was not con-
sidered insane by his fellow officers
When Chief OF Police Ripley made his
changes in the police force. Ketchum
was one of the first to be removed, and
this action OF his superior officer was q
great shock to the former Ken0sha
man.
He became desponden5 and wan
dered about the city, attempting to get
someone to bring influence to bear
with the chief to get him on the force
again. However no one was found
who could assist him and he became
discouraged and on Saturday tried 60
kill himself by leaping through
window.
He was rescued and taken to the
hospital where his mental energy gave
way and he became violently insane
The doctors claim that kis mental
condition is the direct result of his
brooding over his discharge from the
force, and as he was model officer
Chief of Police Ripley, of Chicago, is
receiving great deal of harsh crit~
iciSm.
