Locked in a Closet.

Pandemonium reigned for some time
this morning in an Office building on
Main street. On the third floor OF the
building reside family consisting
chiefly of children between the ages of
one and ten. On the second floor a
number of physicians have their offices.
On this floor the children of the family
residing on the upper story are accus-
toned to play. This morning three of
them between the ages of three and
seven accidentally locked themselves in
a very small closet. At first theiI
detention didn't annoy them any, but
when the novelty wore off and they
found themselves imprisoned without
the power of getting out, they became
frightened and Immediately set up a
howl. This lasted for nearly an hour,
when a certain young lady in that
vicinity lost patience and went to
inquire into the cause Of the tumult.
Her search revealed the fact that the
children were locked up. In a moment
the whole building was reused. 1t
required three physicians and an
electrician, armed with hammers and
hatchets, fifteen minutes to work upon
the door and release the children.

KENosHA's SIDE OF TT.
This City is Now the Center of Attraction
in the Leutgert Case.

Kenosha talent was strongly in evil
dence at the Leutgert murder trial
in Chicago Thursday. Ten Kenosha
gentlemen went to the windy city to
swear to having seen Mrs. Leutgert il
this city OH May 3rd and by their tes-
timony to let in ray Of hope upon the
gloom of despair that has beef settling
about the big sausagemaker. One
went to assist by his oaths in binding
the accused man more tightly TO his
doom. Judging from the Chicago pa
pers there was more or less incongruity
in the testimony of various Kenoshans
which might have been caused either
by short memory or the awe inspir-
ing presence of Chicago court. Matt
Scholey took oath. that be had seen
Mrs. Leutgert here on May 3, and that
she was between l35 and 40 ears of
age. This information seems to have
somewhat surprised the defendant.
Officer Feldshau required some time
to get over the realization that he was
off his regular beat, while Will Grun-
ter was so terrified when be faced
the court and caught the eye of Attot-
ney Deneen that it was fully five min
utes before he could coax his voice out
of his boots. The pictures in the Chi
cago papers represent the boys exactly
as they appeared under the trying cir
cumstance to which they were so I'M
used. This testimony nevertheless
caused considerable excitement.

Rheumatism,
Oh the Pain!

The aches and pains of Rheumatism
Become a constant companion to all who
are victims of this disabling disease.
Much suffering could be avoided if the
First warning pains of Rheumatism were
needed and the proper treatment at once
aaken. But the people generally are
not acquainted with the cause of the
disease, though thousands know its tor
cures. Those who use 1iniments and
Cintnents cannot understand why they
grow worse each winter, and find them
selves gradually becoming unable to get
around as they once could; yet they
know that their trouble came on at first
ms little aches and pains, which hardly
attracted their attention.
Everybody should know more about
rheumatism; they should know that it
is a peculiar condition ofthe blood upon
which all the 1iniments in the world
can have no effect whatever. The
hest blood remedy is needed-one which
IS able to go to the very seat of the
disease, and force it out. Swift's Specific
ES.S.S.) is the right remedy for Rheu-
Eatism, because it is the only blood
remedy free from mercury, potash and
either minerals which intensity the dis,
ease, causing stiffness of the joints and
aching of the bones.

Mad Dog Scare.

A dog, supposed to be mad, caused
considerable CONSERVATION on Market
square this morning. The animal was
foaming at the mouth and gave other
signs of being mad. His eye was
threatening and his jaws were dripping
froth and blood. He attacked no one
because no one gave him az oppor-
tunity. He turned to neither right nor
left, but just the same people gave bin
wide berth until he disappeared in
