A PECULIAR CASE.
Former Kenosha Lady May be Arrested on
a Charge of Bigamy.

Charge OF B1gamy.
A peculiar case has just been brought
to light by the returns of the papers
in an action for divorce brought by
Carl Loetz against his wife, and if the
officials of the law have any desire to
push the case, Mrs. Amelia Mayer
Krause Loetz may be arrested on a
charge of bigamy. The story of the
case as told by the official documents
in the case, is very interesting. The
woman, who was formerly Miss Amelia
Mayer, is native of Prussia, and in
1888 she was married to Herman
Krause. a man living at her home at
Sansberg, Western Prussia. The
course of true love did not run smooth
and in a short time the couple sepa-
rated, and Mrs. Krause came to this
country and settled in Milwaukee. For
several years she lived life of single
olessedness, but on July z, 1898, she
was second time made bride as the
husband of Carl Loetz, of this city.
The couple were married by a Justice
of the Peace in Racine, and came to
this city and lived together as man and
wife for over eight months. After this
time it seems, according to the records
that a divorce suit was brought to
annul the marriage contract made in
Germany some years ago. This fact
became known to the second husband
and he at once left the woman and
refused to live with her. He at once
also filed a suit for divorce on the
grounds that his marriage with the
woman was fraudulent, and the Judge
upheld him in the claim.
The woman who is living in Mil
waukee, admitted all the allegations
made in the complaint of her husband,
but said that she thought that the fact
that she had moved out of the country
in which her marriage with Krause
was solemnized, granted her a divorce
from him. From all reports Loetz had
lived very happily with the woman,
and his action was taken wholly on
account of the illegality of the mar
riage. AS the woman is scarcely
known in this city, it is not probable
that any action for bigamy will be
brought against her.

A FALSE REPORT.
School Board Resents the Gazette 8 Attack
on the superintendent.

on the superintendent.
The local editor of the Daily Gazette,
in the issue of last evening, gave to
the people of the city an utterly false
account of the proceedings of the Board
of Education Tuesday night and at the
request of several members of the
Board, we desire to call the attention
of the fair minded people Of this city to
baseness of the article.
The article accused superintendent
Mcdowell with attempting to force the
election of a superintendent and
furthermore the paper states that
before the Board voted on the question
of the reelection of Mr.. Mcdowell, that
gentleman addressed the Board and
stated that the salary connected with
the Office was no object to him and in
this way be had made bias in the
minds of the Board, to aid his selection
as superintendent. Nothing could be
further from the facts of the case. He
did not say ono word to the Board
until after he had been chosen as sup.
erintendent and as the local editor of
the Gazette was present at the time
his statements last evening can only be
regarded as malicious perversion of
the facts for the purpose of placing the
city superintendent in bad light
before the readers of his paper.
As to the base insiluations of the
author of the article in regard to the
personal honesty of Mr.. Mcdowell the
latter gentleman is too we'll known for
US to refute such charges.
The article and its writer have been
condemned in no uncertain words by
both Democratic and Republican mem
bers of the board today and the board
will probably take some action on the
article at it's next meeting.

Horse and Buggy Stolen.

During the early part Of Friday night
some one appropriated a horse and
buggy belonging to Gilbert Hay, which
had been left hitched on Main street.
The case was at once reported to the
police and the horse and vehicle were
recovered about midnight by Officer
Orth. It's not known who had taken
the rig, as they had abandoned it
when found by the officer. By the
recovery of the horseand buggy Officer
Ortiz wins the honor of doing the first
work of any of the new officers.
