RIFLE, Col, Aug. 1S.-W. E. Tribble
is the hero of desperate hand-to-
hand encounter with two bears, and
that he escaped with his life was due
in part to the visit Of President Roose-

years ago. Mr.. Roosevelt showed the
old guide just how to give the coup
de grace to a bear with knife
Tribble, while in the mountains, was
surprised by a grizzly, and succeeded
in dispatching him. When confronted
by another big bear he dispatched it
in like manner. Tribble was covered
with wounds, but managed to crawl to
his horse and ride to camp, where he
lost consciousness.

Another version Of the encounter

FRENCH CANADIAN EXPLORER
SKEPTICAL AS TO PEARY
Declares That He Has No Chance to
Reach Pole by Route Chosen,

HALIFAX, Aug. 18.-Capt. Bernier,
the French, Canadian explorer, who is
now collecting funds for his dash for
the North pole by way of Bering sea,
does not believe that Peary has reach
ed the pole. Capt. Bernier has arrived
at Sidney, having piloted George W.
Childs DrexePs yacht down the ST.
Lawrence from Quebec, and when ask
ed about Peary's chances of reaching
the pole, said:
sWhy, he has no chance at all. How
do you expect him to reach the pole
with seven toes disabled and without
the doctor? But we must give him
credit for what he has done; he de-
serves it. You will find, however, that
he will admit on his return that it is
impossible to reach the North pole by
that route"

quiet. A deputy named Harry McEl-
moyle was arrested, charged with the
killing of Sharp, and was taken to the
Jail at Mauch Chunk
The shooting occurred shortly after
6 o'clock. Five deputies were on their
way to Shaft No. of the Lehigh Coal
& Navigation company, just outside of
the town. In the center of the town
they were met by strikers who began
persuading them not to go to the col
liery. The officers did not stop, but
kept on their way and tried to prevent
any trouble. The strikers, it is said,
then began to abuse the men and fol-
lowed them nearly up to the colliery.
There are conflicting stories as to
what actually brought on the clash,
but just before the deputies entered the
place shot was heard and Sharp
dropped to the ground. The bullet en-
tered his body close to his heart and
he died almost instantly. Witnesses
say that the shooting was done by
McElmoyle, and that. he stood only six
or seven feet from Sharp when he fired
his revolver.
That Was Enough.
Only one shot was fired. The depu-
ties Immediately withdrew to the col
liery and large crowd gathered about
the place. When it was learned that
Sharp was dead there was the greatest
indignation among the strikers and
other townspeople, and for time it
looked as though serious trouble would
follow. Cooler heads among the mine
workers, however, prevailed upon the
crowd to disperse. using the argument
that if there is any bloodshed troops
will surely be sent from Shenandoah.
Witnesses to the shooting went to the
office of w. r. Watkins, the justice of
the peace, and made information
against Harry McElmoyle, charging
him with the shooting of Sharp. The
justice placed the warrant in the hands

CONTRACTOR RUTLEDGE and Presi-
dent Arnold, of the Street Railway
company had better get together on
that little North Main street paving
contract without delay. The matter
is too small to fight about and the pub
lie is in no mood to listen to explana-
tons of their differences. The people
have'a right to expect that necessary
public improvements will not be de-
layed by two men who have received
so much from the city as have Messrs.
Rut1edge and Arnold. If it is impossi-
bic for these two men to come to terms
over the part of the paving to be paid
for by the railway company, we'll and
good. That is their business. But
they have no right to keep the street
torn up all winter while they argue the
matter, and Mr.. Arnold should make
contractswith someoneIe1se to complete
his share of the work at ..once so that
the paving ,cansbe finished before win
ter sets in.

Kenosha Gas and Electric Company
Will Show No Favors to the CITY
on the Heating Ordinance.
MUST PAY FOR SERVICE PIPES.
Council Fails to Take Any Action on TeIe-
phone Ordinance but Will Meet Again
Nov. 2O-School Tax Levied.

It is evident that the Kenosha Gas
and Electric company is not planning
to extend any unnecessary courtesies
to the city IN regard to the heating of
the City Hall and at the meeting of the
Common Council last evening the City
Attorney reported to the council that
after conference with the attorney
OF the company he had discovered that
the company would Insist that the city
pay all the expenses of laying service
pipes to the city building as well as
for the installation of a system of
radiators. This decision on the part
OF the company is cause of dispute
and the Mayor will appoint a special
committee to treat for peace with the
company aud in some manner bring
about compromise which will permit
the heat being placed in the city build
ing at once. The fact that the com.
pany has contract with the city that
is paying it great profits from the
lighting plant and that the company
receives its franchise for a heating
plant with little or no conditions seems
to have made little difference in the
company's treatment of the city and it
will live up to the very letter of the
law.
Already a point has been raised in
regard to the company heating new
city hall if one should be built in Ke-
nosha, and the attorney for the COM
pany holds that the company would
not be forced to heat the new building.
From these statements it is evident
that the company will demand that it
be held only to the very letter of the
law. The examination of the ordi-
nance on this account has, however,
revealed the fact that the ordinance is
very loosely, drawn and it is possible
that the attorney for the city will be
able to find some vital flaw which will
be sufficient to force The company to
secure new franchise under which
more favorable terms for the city may
be secured.
The meeting of the council last
evening was one of the shortest on
record and little business of import
ance was transacted.
The bids for the installation of
heating plant in the fire department
building on the North side were
opened and the lowest bid was pre-
scented by Burr Bros. The letting of
the contract was referred to the COM
mittee on fire dapa t]11oo& v.,s4I, .,ov-o.
to act. AS the building is sadly in
need of new heating apparatus the
contract for the work will proba bly, be
let at once.
After the usual amount of routine
business the council adjourned until
Thursday night, at which time the
telephone ordinance will be taken up.

LEARNS OF SISTERS FATE.

John Davis First Hears of the Murder of
Rachel Davis When he Comes Here.
John Davis, one of the negroes trav-
cling with the AL. w. Martins Uncle
TOMS Cabin company, had surprise
when he reached Kenosha Sunday, as
for the first time he was informed that
his sister, Miss Rachel Davis, was
murdered in this city. Davis and his
sister had been separated for some
time and the newspaper reports of the
murder of the girl failed to fall into
the hands of the brother.
Davis was visib1y moved when he
learned that his sister had been muir
dered here and he al once went to the
hotel to learn the full details of the
crime which resulted in her death.
Later he went to the police Office and
thanked the police of the city for their
promptness in dealing with the MUIR
derer of his sister. The boy had moth
ing but kind words for the dead and
insisted that the effort of Avery to
blacken the reputation of his victim
was dastardly trick.

Return Here to Wed Second Time ~

day there was happy little wedding
ceremony, which united in marriage
John A. Mcdonald and Mrs. Marv
Evans, of Chicago. This was the see.
ond time that the two had stood before
the marriage altar and taken the vows
to love, honor and obey, and it was the
third time that each had been married.
Both had lived to the mark of three
score and ten, and coming back to Ke-
nosha they gathered up the life they
had sundered twenty-one years ago
and they will make their future home
here. Mr.. and Mrs John A. Melon
aid were we'll known residents of Ke-
nosha twenty-five years ago and the
records of the court show that they
were divorced more than twenty years
ago in the circuit court here. After
the divorce the two separated and heard
nothing of each other for years.
Both remarked and since that time
both had been widowed. Some time
ago they met by chance in Chicago,
and after few meetings it was found
that the old vows made years ago were
stronger than the divorce DEGREES and
they decided to take up their old re-
lations again. This morning Mr..
Mcdonald and Mrs. Evans appeared
at the county court ,and Judge S1osson
issued an order for the marriage.
Mr.. and Mrs. Mcdonald will close
up their homes in Chicago and come to
kenosha to live. 1t is possible that
they will be able to secure the old
home in which they formerly lived and
here among the memories of their first
honeymoon they will spend their de-
Ginning years as man and wife.
The many friends of Mr.. and Mrs.
Mcdonald in Kenosha will be pleased
to extend the heartiest congratulations
on this reunion after years of separa-
ton.

THE MEANEST MAN.

Man Who Throws Banana Feelings on the
Sidewalk Menace to the Community.
There is no longer any contest as to
whom is the meanest man in Kenosha
and all the people will be pleased to
grant this honor to the man who
throws banana peel on the sidewalk.
Such action has in the past week
endangered the life of one of the best
known ladies Of the city and it is
high time that someone took the mat
ter IN hand and insisted that the law
providing a punishment for people
throwing banana peel on the streets be
enforced. No effort has been made to
enforce this law in the past but the
attention of the police has been called
to the negligence and in the future the
man who throws banana peel on the
sidewalks of the city will do so at his
own peril.

The action of the people of Vermont
in e1ecting a Legislature pledged to
enact local option law is not encour-
aging to those prohi bitionists who be-
lieve that the policy of prohibition
should be extended to other States.
Vermont has been prohibition State
for fifty years and the friends of pro-
hibition certainly cannot claim that
the law has not been given a fair trial.
The people of the State appear to have
finally made up their minds that To-
cal option law which will permit each
community to regulate and control for
itself the trafic1in Intoxicating liquors
will be better in every way than pro-
hibition law which does not prohibit,
and which 1t is impossible to enforce
against public sentiment. In CON-
munities where the prohibition senti-
ment is strongest the law has been up
held, but where the sen timent has been
against prohibition the law has be-
come dead letter and an illegal traffic
in spirituous liquors has been carried
on more or less openly for years. 1t is
to make the illegal traffic pay its share
OF the State revenues that the local
option high license law is to be passed
by the Legislature at its next session.

GET LOTS OF GAME.
First Party of Kenosha Hunters Returns
From the Northern Woods.

The first party of Kenosha hunters
to return from the Northern woods
reached home this morning and with
them brought eight of the finest deer
ever seen in Kenosha. The party con-
sisted of E. H. Schultz, Charles Radke,
Frank Wells and Chris Bockenheuser
and they had been in Villas county for
the past eight days.
During this time each of the hunters
had secured the two deer allowed by
the State law, and besides the deer
they managed to secure any number of
smaller game such as quail and prai-
RE chickens. The boys report that
deer are exceedingly plentiful, but the
woods are crowded with hunters and it
is probable that only few of the
much sought animals will be left by
the latter part of the season.
The eight deer have been hung up
at 200 Main street and they are attract
ing a great deal of attention.

MANY people are complaining of the
distractions placed on the sidewalks
in the shopping district. They claim
that some of the sidewalk stands in
front of the stores on Main street are
a nuisance and that the owners should
be given orders to remove them. AS
far as can be ascertaiued the merchants
who keep these stands in front of their
places for the display of their wares
are strictly within their legal rights.
Some time ago the Council passed a
resolution granting permission to all
the merchants to erect stands in front
OF their places of business if they so
desired. The resolution provided,
however, that no stand should extend
out on the sidewalk more than thirty
six inches from the building line and
the Chief of Police was instructed to
see that all who built stands in front
Of their places of business complied
with the regulation. The police are
powerless in the matter and the Coun-
Gil will have to rescind the resolution
referred to before anything can be
done towards removing the stands.
