Two Robberies In Bristol.

Reports brought in from the town of
Bristol state that the little town is ex-
periencing series of burg1aries. Last
Thursday evening the saloon at Trev-
or was entered by unknown parties.
The men were evidently acquainted
with the lay of the building and soon
after they entered they went through
the place and took everything in the
way of money obtainab1e. They tore
a slot machine to pieces and went off
with a geneFPus booty. The cash
drawer was also rif1ed of it's contents.
Friday night the meat market at the
town of Wi1mot was entered. The
burglars had gotten into the place and
were making an effort to get away
through a back window when they
were detected by the owner of the mar
ket a nd a chase followed. The men
broke into a run and ran through a
large front door at the front of the
building, They broke through the
glass door and it is reported that one
of the burglars was badly injured. He
managed to make his escape however
and has not as yet been captured. The
local police have been asked to search
for the criminals.

DOCTORS IN SESSION.
Medical Association Meets for Another
Discussion of Typhoid Fever.

The regular monthly meeting of the
Kenosha County Medico1 Association
was held Friday evening at the par1ors
of the Grant House. It was the inten-
ton of the meeting to hear a paper
by DIR. Camfe1d, but this member had
been called out of the city and was not
able to be present. The evening was
spent in discussing typhoid fever.
It seemed to be the sentiment of the
doctors that the disease was not abat-
ing. Those present reported five new
cases yesterday, and from reports
made it was evident that there were at
least forty cases in the city at the
present time.
One of the doctors reported fourteen
cases and stated that it was his opinion
that the disease was largely resultant
from the use of lake water. He said
that in the fourteen cases nine of the
patients had been users of lake water
exclusively, while some of the others
used it in part.
There was general tendency among
the doctors to attribute the spread of
the disease to the lake water and the
association asked that immediate steps
be taken by the officials to have the
water examined by competent chem
lists. This examination will require
about week and after that time the
doctors will hold special meeting and
make some recommendation to the
board of health, which will assist in
preventing any further spread of the
disease.

A DARING CRIME.
Two Unknown HighWaymen Hold Up
Lewis Smith at West Main
and South Streets.
VICTIM RECEIVED INJURIES

he Had Been Returning Home From His
was Suddenly Seized by Two Men, Wno
succeed in Extracting over $40 From
His Pockets-Po11ce Are Notified But no
Clue Has Been Discovered,
The most daring robbery ever COM
| n1itted in KenoSha was committed Fri
day night little after 9 O'Clock when
two unknown highwaymen assaulted
and robbed Lewis Smith, who resides
at the corner of West and South
street. Mr.. Smith had been employed
at the Hosiery works and was return
ing home from the days work. After
he had passed the corner of South and
| West Main streets and was within
block of his home two unknown men
sprung from the shadow of a house
and assaulted him. 1t was very dark
at the point and the work was done so
quickly that the victim was not able to
see the men so as to recognize them.
| He says that one of them grabbed him
by the shoulder and placing his knee
| in the small of his back threw him to
the ground. AS soon as he was down
the companion of the robber arrived on
the scene and the pockets of Smith
were soon rifed of their contents.
Smith was so badly injured by the
rough treatment he had received that
he was not able to make any effort to
stop the men in their flight. A pedes-
trian passing assisted the injured man
to his feet and assisted him to walk to
his home block away.
| DR.. Robinson was called to attend
Smith, and it was ascertained that he
was suffering from badly wrenChed
back. Smith at once reported the
robbery to the police, but as he was not
able to give any description Of the men
the police fear that their task in 1oCat-
| ing them will be indeed a hard one.
Mr.. Smith states that one of the men
was very tall, while the other was
heavy set man. The tall man had
tied handkerchief over his face to
mask hirn from possible discovery.
The highwaymen did not receive a
great deal of booty. Smith had just
drawn his pay for the week, His
brother-in-1aw, John Hart, not being
able to go to the factory, had also
deputized Smith to draw his pay. In
all Smith had little over 500 and
every cent of it was transferred to the
pockets of the robbers.
The police have some suspicious as
to the identity of the men, but as yet no
arrests have been made.

HAPPY WEDDING.
DR.. Reid A. Wilson, a Reynoldsville
Young Man, the Groom.

DR.. Reid A. Wilson, son Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Robert b. Wilson, OF this place,
was married in Dubois last Wednesday
afternoon. DIR. Wilson, who has spent
his entire life in Reynoldsville, with
the exception Of few years, is so well
known in town that comment from us Is
unnecessary. From the Dubois Express
we clip the full account OF the wedding:
One of the most important events Of
the season and in which large number
of Dubois people felt Interested, was
the happy wedding Of Dr. Reid A. Will
son, Of Brookville, and Miss Genevieve
Smith, the popular and accomplished
daughter of the Rev. and Mrs. II. G.
Smith, Of East Long Avenue. The
marriage was solemnized at the home
of the bride by her father, the Rev.
Smith, assisted by the Rev. A. II. Rich,
ID. D.. pastor of the first M. T.. church
of the city.
The ceremony was performed at 400
o'clock in the afternoon, in the presence
Of a large number of invited guests.
Mrs. r. II. Zerby. the towns accom-
plished musician, played "Lohengrin's
Wedding March" us the wedding party
slowly walked into the drawing room
and in response to the officiating divine's
words pledged to each other their life's
devotion and love. As the words II
now pronounce you man and wife" were
uttered, the strains of IL Promise Thee"
rose from the piano and the impressive
service was at an end. The young
couple received their congratulations
with an ease and elegance of manner
and many were the heartfelt expressions
Of happiness end success accorded them.
After congratulations, the company
was seated at large and small tables and
a feast Of dainty and choice edibles
served.
The young couple are too we'll known
in town for any introduction here. The
bride has spent a number of years in
Dubois, and enjoys very close circle
OF friends. She is an accomplished mu-
sician, very pleasing incident being
the fact that she played at Mrs. II. H.
Zerby's wedding the very same wedding
march that Mrs. Zerby in turn per-
formed for her. DR.. II. A. Wilson, the
groom, was once practitioner here
but removed to Brookville where he
now enjoys a large dental practice.
DR.. and Mrs. Wilson left on the even
ing train for Philadelphia, Atlantic
City and other eastern cities. Upon
their return they will make Brookville
their future home, which town, FORUM
ately is not so far away from Dubois as
to lose the couple from their old time
friends and associates here.

"There is no reason why man should
not be honest and straightforward in
politics as in any other position in life,"
correctly asserts an exchange. "The
schemer always poses and gains tempor-
AIRY advantages, but there is founded no
permanent confidence and the political
life is of short duration. The man that
thinks he rules the people is poor ass
whose bray is music to none but his own
ears, and those about him shudder.
Truthfulness and fidelity to friends,
faithful performance of duty, larger or
small as it may be, is the best guide to
success, and the people are quick to see
the correctness and good intentions OF
the man adopting this rule. The cow
ardly friend, the one who smiles warm
greeting and is hound enough to make
remarks after you pass by that he dare
not make to your face, is the lowest
kind OF an animal"
