"Rube" Shields and Brother, the Fa-
nous Trick Riders, Come to Ke-
nosha For a Visit.
is THE HERO OF PERILOUS RIDES.
Rode a Sterling Bicycle Down the West
Steps of the Capitol at washin gton
without Injury.

The city of Kenosha has interesting
guests today in the person of William
"Rube" Shields and his brother,
Frank Shields, of Boston, Mass. The
Shields Brothers are the most famous
trick riders the world has ever pro-
duced and they have a close connec-
ton with Kenosha, as for many years
they road Sterling wheel with Keno
sha co1ors, but this is the first time
they have ever visited the citv-
While Frank Shields is great rider
the older brother, William ''Rube, J"
has brought fame to the Shields tam1-
1y. He has ridden in almost every
country of the world and is acknowl-
edged as the greatest rider America
has ever produced.
In 1897 when the Sterling was lead
ing all competitors Shields was EN-
p1oyed to advertise the wheels and he
conceived the daring plan of riding
down the steps of the Western en-
trance to the capitol at Washing ton.
This feat had been tried several times,
but the riders of the wheels had either
been dashed to death or manned tor
life. Shields performance was Won
derfu1 one. He walked to the top OF
the steps and with small crowd OF on
lockers he 1eaped lightly into the sad
die and simply flew to the ground be-
meath. He made the descent without
dropping from the wheel and without
doing jury to the machine. With
this daring work the rider for the Ke-
nosha factory at once sprang into
fame and his pictures graced the pages
of the metropolitan journals for
months.
Since that time Shields has travelled
extensively and has given entertain
ments in all the larger cities of this
country and Europe. He is now on a
trip through the Northwest and is rid
ing with his brother in all the smaller
cities. During the winter months
Shields is employed for the season at
Weber and Fields in New York.
Shields is not talkative man and
has little to say in regard to his work,
and the exhibition which he gave on
Main street at noon today assured the
people of the city that he was indeed a
great rider.
He will remain in Kenosha over
night and this evening will give an
exhibition of his riding at the corner
of Main and Wisconsin streets.
Shields is an interesting parsonage
and the scrap book which he carries
with him shows that he has been the
guest of honor at many of the leading
clubs of the country, while he has re-
ceived notes of recognition for his
work from the crowned heads of sew
eral European nations.

KenOSha Girl Named Bessie Lander
Said to Have Caused a Young
Man to Commit Suicide.
DIDN'T HAVE MONEY TO MARRY.
Frank S. Tustis Takes His Life in a Chica-
go Hotel on Account of Love For
the Kenosha Girl.

The police of Chicago are making
an effort to locate Miss Bessie Lander,
who is supposed to reside IN this city,
and for the love of whom S. Frank
Tustis committed suicide in a room at
the Great Northern hotel in Chicago
Tuesday morning. The story of the
love Of the Chicago man and the Ke-
nosha woman seems TO have been a
sad, sweet romance, but the young
lady-Miss Lander-cannot be found
in Kenosha and nothing of a positive
nature can be learned as to her rela-
tons with the suicide.
Only Monday it is claimed that Tus-
tbs sent letter to Miss Lander in this
city, but no trace of the letter or post
office address of the young lady can be
found. Friends of the suicide state
that he was engaged to marry Miss
Lander and that the wedding was to
have taken place at the home of the
young 1ady's aunt in this city in the
near future, but neither the young lady
or her aunt can be located. 1t APP
pears that the Lander girl had gone to
visit with her iance, and he had babe
her an affectionate farewell before she
took the train for Kenosha.
After the girl had left, Tustis went
at once to the Great Northern hotel,
where he engaged room for the night
registering from Chicago. Shortly
after he went to his room he ordered
glass of lemonade and with this he
mixed the deadly poison. When the
chambermaid entered the room on
Tuesday morning the young man had
been dead for several hours.
After the remains we're examined
papers were found disclosing the iden-
tity, and a note stating that he had
committed suicide because of the fact
that he was earning but six dollars a
week and with this amount he was not
able to fulfill his promise to marry
Miss Lander.
Young Tustis was clerk at the
Lesser drug store in Chicago but few
days ago he gave up his position in
order to travel and solicit orders for
another drug firm. When he left his
home Monday morning he told his
mother that he was going to travel.
Every effort is being made to locate
Miss Lander as it is thought possible
that she has followed her lover and
sought to join him in death. The
young 1ady's name does not appear in
the Kenosha directory and all other
efforts to locate her have so far proved
futile.

A number of people have already
been to Buffalo to take in the Pan
American Exposition. They report
the show as all that could be desired,
and that they had a veryp1easant trip.
They went by way of Milwaukee,
taking the Pere Marquette steamer
across Lake Michigan, and from there
to Detroit by fast train, connecting at
Detroit with fast trains for Buffalo.
Some have gone by boat from Detroit,
and report delightful trip, the change
from rail to water riding being very

AFTER KENosHA PLANTS.
New Iron Trust Would Seek to Purchase
Plant in Kenosha.

Plant in KenOSha.
The latest trust to be organized in
the Northwest is a great syndicate
among the iron industries which has
just been capitalized at $15,0OO,O00.
The company will include many of the
larger plants of this nature in the mid
die West.
It is the expectation of the project
ors that number of smaller plants, in
various parts of the country, which
are not now agreeable to the move,
will be whipped into line, and then the
present amount of the capitr1 stock
($15, OOO,OO0) will be materially in
creased later. The plan includes be-
tween thirty-five and forty plants of
this kind in the country, half dozen
or more of which are in Wisconsin.
The places besides Milwaukee where
plants are being negotiated for or
where pressure will be brought to bear
for absorption, are Waukegan, Racine,
Kenosha and other places. It is said
that, in the event of securing the
smaller concerns some of them will be
closed down, and it is understood that
the work will be divided into several
departments, so that a certain plant
will be given that class of work which
it is best fitted to carry on or in which
it may have been working for years
as a speciality.

JOHN BISHOPS FALL.
Well Known Young Man of Somers Arrest
ed For Robbing Railway Company.

The town of Somers was shocked
Tuesday night by the announcement
that John Bishop, one of the best
known young men of the town and
son of one of the best known residents
of Kenosha county, had been arrested
in Racine on a charge of robbing
street car on which he was acting as
motorman.
For some time Bishop had been sus-
pected of crooked dealings and Tues
day one of the officials of the road
boarded the car as a spotter. He man
aged to catch Bishop in the act of re-
moving a few coins from the fare box.
Bishop was at once placed under ar
rest andsin the evening he was taken
before the Municipal court where he
entered plea of guilty and was fined
ten dollars and costs.
The fall of the young man caused a
profound sensation among his friends
and his parents have the heartfelt SYM
pathy of all. Bishop had left his home
only short time ago to work for the
company and finding the wages too
small to support his wife and family,
he had undertaken to increase the
earnings by fraud. When he was ar
rested Bishop made an effort to settle
with the company in order to shield
his parents and family, but the COM
panY refused to settle and seek to
make an example of Bishop. He will
not be further employed by the COM
pany.
It is stated that the crime of which
Bishop was charged is a common one
among the conductors and motormen,
but Bishop is the first man to be
caught in the act of robbing the COM
panY.

BANKER PEN1cK NOT A SUICIDE
Body of Charlton Ga) Man Found in Lake
Near Where he Fell From Steamer.

Near Where He Fell From Steamer
The body of G. E. Penick, the banker
of Charlton, Ia, and brother of ex-
Congressman Penick, was discovered
floating IN Lake Michigan near Ra-
cine Tuesday afternoon, not hundred
feet from where he fell into the lake
from the steamer Virginia on Friday
morning. Two men, c. O1eson and A.
Humphrey, both claim to have seen
the body first and will demand the re-
ward of $500 which has been offered.
The money in Penick's pocket, ring
on the finger, filing in the teeth, the
clothing, ETC., all correspond with the
description furnished, and there is no
doubt as to the identity. There is now
thought to be little doubt that the
drowning was an accident and not a
suicide, and that possibly while sleep
ing Penick fell from the edge of the
upper deck where he was sitting.
Friends of the deceased took charge
of the body today.

Hal COOPER'S BRIDE.
Miss Sarah A. Cooper Philip Becomes the
Bride of Our Congressman.

The secret of Congressman Cooper
is out and a telegram was received
from New York Monday evening an
nouncing that Congressman Cooper's
bride was Miss Sara A. Cooper-Philip,
a prominent young woman of New
York. The wedding took place at the
home of the BRIDES sister in New York
on Friday last.
The story Of the courtship dates
back to about five years ago, when Mr..
Cooper, while visiting in New York,
met Miss Philip, and immediate
friends in New York, Washington and
other places in the East predicted a
courtship and marriage.
About two years ago Mrs. Cooper
visited the West and spent some time
visiting Mr.. Cooper's sister in Bur-
1ington, Wis, and the two ladies grew
to be close friends.
Mrs. Cooper is prominent in New
York and Washington society. The
reason for her taking the name of
Cooper-Phi1ip was on account of her
stepfather, whose name was Philip.
