MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE.
George Gode1, sanitarium Guest. Can
not Be Found.

George Gottlieb Godel, who came to
the Pennoyer Sanitarium on the 2Sth
of September, as a convalescent from
the Cincinnati insane asylum, disap-
peared Wednesday evening and has
not yet been heard from. He is an
educated German, but has for some
time past been quite badly deranged
mentally, though he was considered so
nearly recovered that he was released
from the hospital at Cincinnati Since
he has been here he has shown no signs
of serious fermentation. He has been
in the company of an attendant, but
has not been watched very closely, as
lit was not thought that lie required
constant care or attention. Wednes-
day evening while standing on the east
veranda in conversation with his at.
tendant, he received the informa ton
that his wife had just arrived from
Peoria. In the excitement aroused by
this news Godel disappeared. He went
in the direction of the south gate. He
was hatless, without money and having
no means of support. In view of these
facts the attendant felt no uneasiEess
at his flight, and thought it unneces-
sary to follow him. After short time,
as he did not return, his absence dis
turbed his wife, and she and the at
tendant went in search of him. He
could not be found on the premises.
The police were then notified and mes
sages sent to all places in communica-
ton with Kenosha. This morning the
search was continued, Mrs. Godel
accompanied by the attendant and an
officer, having inspected the whole
city. At last reports no trace or YES
tige of the man had been found. In
appearance he is tall, measuring feet,
10 inches. He weighs nearly l60
pounds, is light haired and of fair COM
plexion, wearing light colored NOUS
tache. When last seen he was hatless,
wore short blue coat and trousers
with small stripe. A reward has
been offered for his recovery.

1t is very probable that Kenosha's
list of factories will soon be enlarged
by one more. Wednesday there were
men about the city looking for a desir-
able place to locate a candy factory.
They are willing to rent, if q satisfac-
tory place can be found. There are
several places on Main street which
have attracted their attention. II
none of these are available, it is not
unlikely that. they will buy lot and
build upon it. Their purpose is to run
a wholesale and retail establishment,
in which they will make and keep for
sale the finest kind of CONNECTIONS.
They are Greeks and will make a
speciality Of Greek candies. a. Gala
patio, the representative of the firm
who was in the city Wednesday, says
that they have been in business in
Chicago for number of years, but
owing to the fact that the property Of
the firm in that city has been ruined
by the proximity of a railroad which
has recently been built, they desire tt
move their stock and business. They
have left the matter in the hands of {
certain local attorney, who will take
care Of their interests here until tht
affair is deAnitely settled.

sible position he occupied, knew what

fitness. No one knew Mr.. Nells but
to respect and like him. He was a
plain and unassuming man, but one OF
Gods noblemen. Having charge OF
large number Of men, he dealt fairly
with all to the best of his ability, and
many man who has been in his en-
ploy has cause to bless the name OF the
man who in many ways befriended him.
| Mr. Nellis was member of the Gen
eral Custer g. A. r. post Of this city,
and an honored member of the organi-

When Barden & McArdle closed the

occurred TO them that the boxes had
been left outside. On returning they
found one of them gone. Surprising
that the missing box contained about
$50 worth of stock they notified the
police of the disappearance. This
morning it developed that the box only
contained corset form. The gentle
men think they know where the prop
erty is at present.

price Of dozen bottles, that he might
OF only have it for. use in his own
family, but supply it to his neighbors.
The reason some people get along
without it, is because they do not know
it's value, and what a vast amount of
suffering it will save. Wherever it be
comes known and used, it is recognized
as a necessity, for it is the only remedy
that can always be depended upon for
bowel complaints, both for children and
for adults. For sale by Starkweather
