CAPT. HANSEN DROWNED.
Commanding officer of the Schooner ]. v.
Jones Loses Life at Sutton Bay.

Early this morning the managers of
the 4A11en tannery received telegram
from Sutton Bay, Mich, announcing
the sad news of the drowning of Capt.
Thcrwa1d Hansen of Milwaukee, who
had charge of the Allen schooner, j.
V. Jones. The telegram gave meme of
the details of the sad accident and the
officers of TIE tannery are at loss to
know how the drowning could have
occurred. It is supposed that the death
of the well known sailor was the result
Of some accident that happened while
the schooner was tied UP in the harbor
at Sutton Day.
Capt. Hansen was one of the best
known sailors on the lakes. He had
been in the employ of the tannery for
about fifteen years and most of this
time he had been sailing the lakes with
the schooner on which he met his fate.
Capt. Hansen left Kenosha last Satur
day and went to Sutton Bay for load
of tan bark. The boat was being
loaded when the accident occurred.
Sorrow and regret is expressed in all
parts of the city on account of the death
Of Capt. Hansen. While he always
lived in Milwaukee in the winter he had
made his home here for many summers.
He was a familiar character about the
harbor and on Main street. Genial
and jovial, he was prime favorite
among the sailors on the lake touching
Kenosha. He had a wonderful record
for so Young man, and was always
counted on as a most reliable man.
On this account his death is mystery
to his many friends and employers in
this city
The inquest over the remains is
being held today, and more news Of
the accident is expected tomorrow.
Capt. Hansen was thirty-eight years
of age, and leaves a wife and four
children. They reside on Mineral
street in Milwaukee. The wife is

DEMANDS DAMAGES,
William D. Perry, of Chicago, Sues
the PennOyer Sanitarium on Ac-
count of His Wfe's Death.
MRS. PERRY WAS A SUICIDE
Took Corn Cure ard Died Here on March
10th-Her Husband Alleges Negligence
of Nurses and Asks for $4,000.

The Pennoyer Sanitarium Company
OF this city has been named as the de-
PENDANT in most sensational suit
which has just been brought in the
United States Court at Chicago. The
plaintiff i'll the action is William ID.
Perry, one of the officials of the Ar
buckle Coffee and Sugar trust, whose
wife took her own life at the SAM
tariun on March 10th. Perry has
filed suit against the company and de-
mands that damages to the amount of
$4,000 be awarded to him on account
of the death of his wife. He claims
that her death was due to the neg1i-
gence of the nurses at the Sanitarium
who had care of Mrs. Perry while she
was taking treatment for a nervous
disorder at the Sanitarium. On ac-
count of the fact that the Sanitarium
is IN another state from the home of
the plaintiff, the suit has been filed in
the United States Court. The Cook
county officials made an effort to Sc
meyer in Chicago Tuesday, but he was
not to be found in the Chicago office of
the company.
The death of Mrs. Perry will be re-
called as most tragic one. She was
a young and beautiful woman and had
only short time. At the time of her
death it was not known that her mind
was affected, but the Coroner's jury
found temporary insanity as the cause
of her rash deed. The lady had been
in her usual health on the Friday be-
fore her death, but early Saturday
morning the doctors were called to her
room and found her in great agony.
It was discovered that she had swa1-
lowed a full bottle of a mixture used as
corn cure. Every effort was made to
save her life, but she survived only till
evening and died after suffering in
human pain.
At the time of the suicide it was
stated that the woman had made other
attempts to take her life before she
was brought to the Sanitarium. The
case promises to be a very interesting
one when it is brought up for trial in
the United States Court at Chicago. o.
DR.. Pennoyer was seen today and
wien asked in regard to the story of
the suit he stated that the matter was
purely case of b1ackn1ai1. He said
M. Perry more than any one else was
TO blame for the death of his wife.
Mrs: Perry had been constantly at
tended by nurse during her illness at
the Sanitari1m and the immediate
cause of her suicide was the fact tEat
Perry came to the Sanitarium and left
her in a nervous condition close to in
sanity. The case will be bitterly con-
tested. Dr.. Pcnuoyer stated that this
was the first time any suit Of this ma
tire had been filed against the Keno
sha institution.

IN THE BARBER CHAIR
News Reporter Isl Assaulted by the
Mayor in the Mayors Office
This Afternoon.
AN UNPRovoKED ATTACK
After Inviting Him Into His Office, His
Honor Belabors the News Man With
Pitchers, Chairs, Etc.

The reporter of the EVENING News
and Mayor James German had
friendly little conference this after
noon in the shop OF the Mayor and as
a result the reporter is laid up with an
ugly wound ia the back of his head
caused by water pitcher being hurled
with 1nurderous intent by the Mayor.
The little affair occurred shortly before
two O'Clock. The reporter was on the
street when he was approached by the
mayor and asked to come to the shop
to talk over little matter. The re-
porter opined as how it was just as
we'll to talk of the matter on the street
but the mayor was firm and so the Of
fee was settled on as the place of the
conference. When the office was
reached the reporter, as was his habit
in the sacred sanctum of the mayor
laid down in one of barber chairs. The
mayor then opened up and said: ''Now
/ am done with you and don't want
to have anything to do with you
but if you ever say anything
else about me l will shoot you The
reporter replied that he was not fright
ened and with this the Mayor retCrted,
insinuating that the repsrter was gay
and without more ado he proceeded to
take a punch at the reporter who was
in the barber chair. The blow was
straight from the shoulder and had the
effect of sending the reporter into re-
mote corner of the room where a stove
and a shining chair wed for honors.
Here wedged between the stove and
the chair the Mayor proceeded to take
a few more punches and as he was in
good practice he picked up a heavy
water pitcher and hurled it at the head
of the unfortunate scribe. Of course
the scribe ducked, but too late, for the
pitcher hit him in the back of the head
making a wound an inch long. The,
reporter was watching a galaxy of
stars, when the Mayor came at him
again with piece of the shining chair
and proceeded to maui him over the
head. This was not enough for his
honor, but he then went into whisk
brooms and other smaller weapons
until the reporter found a favorable
opportunity and ducked. An emer-
gency hospital was found and the
blood was washed away by DR.. Andre.
The wounds sustained are not in any
way serious, but the reporter will have
a sore head for some days. The face
of the reporter was not mutilated be-
sides a few flesh wounds.
To one who is perhaps prejudiced
the assault of the reporter looks as if
it were unprovoked and was made with
nlurderous intent. AS to any further
action in the case nothing can be said
at this time.
