Annual Meetings of the directors Of the
Library Held Tuesday Evening
The annual meeting Of the directors
of the Kenosha Library Association
was held at the library on last Tuesday
evening. After a full board had as
semb1ed the following officers were
elected for the ensuing year.
President w. w. Strong.
Vice President George Yu1e.
Secretary c. Theirs.
Treasurer Joseph Bendt.
Librarian Mrs. Clara P. Barnes.
1st Assistant Librarian-Mis Anna

End Assistant Librarian-Miss Car
RE Russell.
The usual standing committees were
announced by the president and are
composed of the same members as last
year. The growth of the library dur
ing the past few months is well shown
in the fact that the directors have
found it necessary to employ two as
sistants for Mrs. Barnes. The choice
of Miss Russell will meet with univer-
sal concentration. Miss Russell has
been in the library little over a year
and her work has been of such a ma
ture that she has made herself indis-
pensab1e in the work of the institu-
tior

TWO MORE SUSPECTS
Edwin McCarty and B. ]. Literske Also
Accused of Connection With the
TuIis Murder.
SHERIFF FIND ORGANIZED GANG

Sheriff Timme Returned Home This Morn
ing and Announces That he is Certain
That La Felle, Smith and tire Rest of the
Gang will Be Held for the Crime. He is
Now on the Track Of Raymond. the One
who Escaped.
Sheriff Tinme returned home this
morning after three days search for
evidence against the men sent to the
different reform institutions of the
state and whom he thinks were con-
nected with the murder of William j.
Tu1is, at Burlington, on the morn
ing of October IA. He said that he
was certain that the men he will ask
to have apprehended as soon as they
are released, are the men who COM
mitted the dastard1y crime at Burling-
ton. Added to the confession of Smith
the evidence which has been secured
by the sheriff in the western part of
the county, practically fixes the crime
upon the organized gang Of which
Smith and La Fe11e were the leaders.
The story of Smith who said that six
men were connected with the crime,
has been substantiated by a woman in
Burlington, who was the sole: witness
of the events following the murder of
old man Tu1is. This lady lives near
the brewery and she states that when
she was awakened by the shooting she
men running away from the brewery.
The other two men connected with
the crime are B. J. Literske and Edwin
McCarty, who are now serving sem
fences in the state refortnatory at
Green Bay on charge of robbing the
store of Joseph Dalton at Silver Lake.
Raymond is still at large, but the sher-
if managed to find some trace of him
and has sent out notice to surrounding
officials to arrest him, if possible.
From the facts secured by the sheriff
it appears that the gang which is
suspected of the murder is largely
responsible for the many bnrglaries
which were committed in the western
part of the county in October, 1899.
They ali have the appearance of crooks
and all of them admitted that they
made the road their home. From the
time they were arrested until they were
sent to the state institutions they made
every effort to get rid of the cases as
soon as possible. All of them plead
guilty to the charges against them and
received light sentences.
Sheriff Timme went out again today
to look up few points. The matter
has already been referred to the Dis
trict Attorney of Racine county and
he has asked that Smith be brought
back from the state prison in order
that further confession may be Sc
cured from him.

Plans are being made for large

of brick and will extend over the en-

and for some time the quarters occu-

KNOWN BY THEIR TUNES.


Talking about the queer ways some peo-
pie have of sizing up a mans capabilities
for a Job, said a resident of Paterson, n.
j., to a Washington Star reporter the other
day, there recently died in my town a
boss cal penter named Hobart, who had one
question which he always asked of journey
men who applied to him for employment.
If the applicant was found to possess all
the other necessary qualifications Hobart
would ask:
"What are your ~favorite t%unes?"
"Why, what do you want to know that
for?"
You whistle and sing some at your work,
don't yeuY'.
'Oh, yes"
"Well, what tunes do you generally whis-
tie or sing:". ..
''Oh, there's old Hundred and Aud
Lang syne,' and Down by the Weeping
That's enough" the boss would exclaim.
"You won't do for me. These tunes are
too slow for me. Good-day."
Onthe contrary, if the applicant answered:
"Oh, l generally whistle Yankee Doodle
or The Fishers Hornpipe,' or something Of
that sort, the carpenter would say at once:
Il think you'll do! Take off your coat
If you want to and 60 TO work"

JOKE GAINED HIS POINT.
Worked on n Committee
on PensiepS.

Not long ago Congressman "Hank' Smith,
OF the Second Michigan district, worked Joke
off on the house committee on pensions. 1t
should be explained, says the Chicago Chron-
icle, that this committee is not the one
which has charge of the pensions which
grew out of the civil war, says a correspond
emit. Its functions appertain to the granting
of pensions to the widows and veterans OF
the Mexican and Black Hawk wars and
other ancient unpleasantnesses. 1t should
also be pointed out that one of their rules is
that no widows pension shall be larger than
81 a month. This proceeds upon the theory
that any widow who survives a veteran Of
these wars must be a comparatively young
woman and that she must have married the
veteran in his dotage to get his pension.
The new member from Michigan appeared
before the committee at its last meeting and
in an incidental and smiling way alluded to
the rule.
"That is a fine rule" said he in a guileless
sort of way. Il sympathize with its purpose
and believe it should stand. But just to show
good faith | am going to propose an amend
ment. l move that it be amended SO as to
read except in the case of widows over 100
years of age"
The members of the committee are always
in favor Of a joke and the proposition was
adopted with a unanimous laugh.
And thereupon Hank" produced from his
pocket a bill to grant a pension of $l2 a
month to Mrs. Hixon, of Clinton, Mich. She
had Just passed her one ~hundredth year. 1t
was not necessary to explain that her hus.
band had served to within one day of the
time requisite to get a pension in the reg.
ular manner. The committee reported the
bill favorably.
