Frank 6. Anderson is Found Lying
on the Floor at His Home in
an Unconscious Condition.
HE WAS OVERCOME BY FUEL GAS
It is Stated That Anderson Fell to the
Floor in Faint and That the Gas In
the Stove Was Turned On.

Frank E. Anderson, well known
resident of the city living at 433 Gro
yer street, had narrow escape from
being asphyxiated by illuminating
gas on Thursday afternoon and the
story of the escape is shrouded in con-
siderable mystery. Mr.. Anderson was
at home alone at~the time of the Incl
dent and the facts in the matter have
not as yet been given to the public.
Anderson was found in an uncon-
scious condition shortly after O'Clock
by neighbor who had gone to the
house to attend to some cooking. The
man was lying on the floor of the
kitchen and near his head a gas stove
was open and the gas was pouring from
it at at terrific rate. When he was
found DR.. William Pugh was at once
called to attend him and after consid-
cradle trouble the man was revived,
but he seemed to have no memory of
the manner in which the accident had
occurred.
The wife, Mrs. Anderson and one
of the children had gone to Racine to
|
had remained at home to look after the
house. He had sat in one of the rooms
reading for some time and late in the
afternoon he had gone to the kitchen
on an errand. It is supposed that as
he was walking about he fell to the
floor in a faint. AS he fell it is
thought that one of his feet struck the
cock and turned on the gas. His es-
cape was indeed narrow one and had
not help arrived at the time it did he
would not have been able to be resus-
citated.
Today he is able to be about and is
feeling none the worse on account of
the experience which came near caus-
ing his death. There was no one else
in the house at the time of the acct
dent and as Anderson is silent on the
subject no further details of the case
can be obtained.
It was reported this morning that
Anderson had turned on the gas in
tending to commit suicide, but this
story has no confirmation among the
people who are acquainted with the
facts in the case.

SCOTS MONASTERY.
Prof Moulton Delivers Interesting Lecture
To KOmper Hall Students and Others.

Pref Moult0n Delivers Interesting Lecture
TO KGmper Hall Students and others.
"Sir Walter SCOTS Monastery" was
the subject of lecture given by Prof.
r. G. Mou1ton, of the University of
Chicago, at Kemper hall Wednesday
evening.
The story was chosen, not for any
conspicuous merit that it possesses in
comparison with the other works of
the author, but for the illustration OF
the employment Of Magic in liter
allure, which the lecturer will exploit
in a series of six lectures, of which
this was the second, the first having
been given two weeks ago on Shakes
peare's Tempest"
To the ordinary reader the ''Monas-
tery'' is not interesting. It may be
said that the story was comparative
failure, and that, too, in spite of the
subject which is a study of life at the
time of the Revolution. in Scotland,
when there were picturesque scenes
and stirring incidents. It was not,
however, the story in the main that
Mr.. Mou1ton analysed in his lecture,
but the White Lady of Avenel, lady
who makes herself too conspicuous
and entirely too familiar. In fact this
character has always seemed 100 un-
real, and wholly apart from Scottish
superstitions, and it is perhaps her un-
reality that makes the book uninter-
est1ng.
From Mr.. Mou1ton's standpoint the
work, through it's artistic de1ineation
of the white Lady," is worthy OF the
first place in the garland of magic
which he intends to wreathe around
the exotic of the Tempest. He COM
pared the "White Lady" with Ariel
and Caliban. "She partakes," he said,
'of both natures, of the higher and the
lower. Sometimes she is Ariel with
soaring ideas and spiritual longings,
sometimes Ca1iban with grosser appe-
tite and earthly cravings. Fire and
air, earth and water mingle in strange
variety in her composition. We are
puzzled by her contradictions. When
we think that we haye grasped the true
meaning of her mood she is changed,
and we seek to follow her in her va
carries. Truly artistic is the touch that
can paint creature of such varying
motions. Surely this novel is fit to
place side by side with that master
piece of magic treatment-the Temp
est.''
With wonderful power and light
gracefu1ness the lecturer gave the
Friar's experience with the "White
Lady" and the scene in the grotto.
Whatever may have been the opinion
of the audience with reference to the
merit of the novel, every one was
forced to admire the beauty of the mar
rative in those two scenes as portrayed
by the author and sketched by Mr..
Moulton.

ANOTHER DAMAGE CLAIM.
Ernst August Schulz Claims Damages
Against the City.

Against the CITY.
January 18th seems to have been an
unlucky day for the city of Kenosha.
Yesterday a notice was served on the
city stating that Mrs. Meyer would
claim damages on account of injuries
received on that day and today an
other notice is served claiming that
Ernst August Schulz was another
victim Of the 18th and that he will de-
mand satisfaction from the city. In
his notice to the city Schulz claims
that he slipped and fell on an icy walk
at the corner of Prairie and Lyman
avenues and that he sustained a frac-
ture of his arm and other Injuries which
caused him great bodily harm. 1t is
hardly probable that the city will
make any effort to settle either Of the
suits filed against it but will have the
case tested in the courts. The attor-
neys claim that the city cannot be held
on account of injuries received from
falls on an icy sidewalk as this is not
considered defective sidewalk.

Carload of Machinery Being Installed at
the Msisslbsch Factory.

The A, D. Meise1bach factory is
making large additions to it's equip
ment and yesterday afternoon car
load of new machinery was received
for the plant and it is now being put
in position. 1t is stated on good au-
thority that the owner of the plant is
planning an addition in the spring in
order to make room for new machinery
which is constantly arriving.
The first machine has been turned
out and is now on display in the Office
of the plant. It is stated that advance
orders to the number of 500 machines
have been received and the plant is
sure of a busy season. Mr.. Meiselbach
has decided that no machines will be
sent out of the factory until the full
thousand has been made, and it is said
that these will GO to Milwaukee, where
they have been contracted for.
The new machine is making a great
hit in the typewriter world, and it is
said 20 be the equal of any machine
made in this country, regardless of the
price for which they are sold.

DEMANDS DAMAGES.
Mrs. Hermoine Meyer Claims Damages
From City on Account Of a Pail.

Mrs. Hermoine Meyer Claims Damages
From City on Account Of Fall.
The city is to be the defendant in at
least one suit as result of icy side
walks, for last evening notice was
filed with the City Clerk that Mrs,
Hermoine Meyer, well known north
side lady, would demand damages
from the city on account of injuries re-
ceived from a fall on a defective icy
sidewalk on Market street.
Mrs. Meyer was injured on the even
ing of Jan. 18th. She had started to
walk from the corner of Pleasant
street, and while she was walking
along Market street she slipped and
fell, breaking her arm. She claims
that her health has been badly shat
tered from the results of the fall and
demands that the city should REIN
burse her.
OF course this suit is only the first of
many. It is stated that fully
twenty people have been injured by
falls on icy sidewalks during the last
few weeks and it is probable that all
of them will ask for some return from
the city for their injuries.
The notice Of Mrs. Meyer will be
considered by the Council at their next
regular meeting.

WANT GRADE CHANGED.
Psrk street Property owners Ask Council
Make Alterations in the Street.


The property owners on Park street
are circulating petition which will be
presented to the city council IN the near
future and which asks that the council
order an ordinance passed esta blishing
a new grade on east Park street. 1t is
claimed that should the present city
grade be carried out it would make the
street so low at Exchange street that a
pit would be formed.
The petition is simply preliminary
one and early in the Spring the owners
of property on the street will ask the
council to pave the street from Main
to Exchange streets and to put in a
new sewer. The street is one OF the
business streets of the city and should
be paved with brick from Main street
to the lake shore.
