Died.

Died, in Weiser, at 2 p. M, Monday,
Feb. 26, Nancy Ann, wife of Andrew
Paynton.
The death of this most estimable and
most highly respected lady may be truth
fully said to cast gloom over the hearts
of all who knew her. the unusually sad
conditions that attend her taking away
from the family thatI so much need a
mothers care. are matters that human
conjecture rarely attempts to reconcile.
She was needed here; she may be needed
there. She will be remembered for her
unselfsh devotion to her home and
family.
The offers of sympathy to the hus-
band no matter how heartfelt they may
be, are useless. Time onlyis the healer.
His consolation must come from the daily
teaching to his children the virtues Of the
mother taken from them, SO her memory
will grow in their minds like an actual
presence. en-. 'i+

The kenosha officials went to Wau-
kegan early Tuesday morning and the
struggle for the prisoner at once be-
gan. In the first place the local no
lice demanded that the prisoner be
turned over to the sheriff of Lake
county and as soon as this was done
Chief Timme presenting a State war
rant for the arrest of Avery on charge
OF murder demanded the person of the
prisoner. At the suggestion of the
police OF Waukegan the request was
refused and short time later Avery
was hustled up to a Justice Court and
charge of carving concealed wea pons
was placed against him. The public
prosecutor took an adjournment for
ten days and in the meantime the
Waukegan police will make an effort
to collect rewards.
The crime which the Waukegan po-
lice claim Avery is guilty of is MUIR
der which was committed at Norfolk,
Va, in 1896. The man is said to bear
a slight resern blance to the picture of
the man who was wanted for that
murder but the Kenosha officials de-
clare that the resemblance is not suf-
fciently striking to hold the man
wanted IN Kenosha. According to the
plans now made the prisoner can be
held IN Waukegan Cor ten days and the
Waukegan officers promise to take adj
vantage of the plan.

This was practically the closing in

TEACHERS CONFERENCE.
Miss Mcclure Talks of the Methods of Con
Quoting Public School Music.

Miss Mcclure Talks of the Methods of Con-
Quoting Public School Music.
The first of the teachers confer
ences on school subjects was held at
the High school Saturday afternoon.
Besides the city teachers there was a
large delegation from the rural and
private schools and number of inter
ested patrons that listened to Miss Nc
Clure's presentation of the method of
conducting public school music. For
an hour and half the leader explained
in most Ointeresting and practical
way how the music work can be made
valua bleandpointed out to the teachers
the way to make the rough places
smooth.
Touching first upon the fact that
music must have rhythm, melody and
harmony, Miss Mcclure devoted most
of the time to the discussion of the
methods Of training the ear to grasp
music, the eye to read music and the
mind to interpret music. The latter
phase is the most important object to
be accomplished in musical training
and requires constant effort on the
part of the teacher.
After the adjournment of the meet
ing the city teachers discussed many
of the individual difficulties with Miss
Mcclure aud received much valuable
assistance. Miss Mcclure has spent
today visiting the various grades of
the city and has given assistance in
the work of music in the schools.
The next conference will be held in
November and will be led by the Lii
brary Clerk of the office of the State
superintendent, Miss McNeal. Lii
brary work and library reading will be
discussed. This is much needed topic
of information in Kenosha consider
ing the new step the library board has
taken in placing graded libraries in
the schools of the locality.

A SECOND CALL.
German Lutherans of Kenosha Call Rev. A.
Kanzier, of Hortonville, as Pastor.

German Lutherans of Kenosha Call Rev. A.
Kanzier, of Hortonville, as Pastor.
The members of the German Luther
an church association met at the
church Sunday and decided by a unan-
imous vote to call as their pastor the
Rev. Adolph Kanzier, now pastor of
the church at Hortonvil1e, Wisconsin.
This action was made necessary on &C
count of the fact that the church at
New London refused to release the
Rev. Adolph Spiering.
The minister who has been called is
we'll known in Lutheran circles. He
is a young man thirty-six years of age
and has been in the ministry for the
past seven years. In this time he has
made good reputation as preacher.
Prof. Henry Jaeger, who has been
the second teacher in the Lutheran
schools for the past four years Sun
day asked the society to grant him a
release that he might accept call to
the schools at Watertown. The re-
lease was granted and Mr.. Jaeger will
at once accept the call to Watertown.
The retiring teacher has been great
factor in the Lutheran schools in Ke-
nosha and his work has made a no.
ticeable advancement in the schools.

Davis seemed not to fear his threats
and she told her friends that she was
In no way afraid of her ardent lover.
The murdered girl was twenty years
old. She was clever as singer and
dancer a nd was general favorite with
the members of the company. Her
home was in Milwaukee, where she
lived with her sister, Miss Maggie
Davis, at 207 Fourth street.
The murder caused the widest ex-
|citement in the city and all other
phases of the carnival lost interest to
the people who joined freely in the
hunt for the criminal. Thousands Of
people visited the little room ia the
hotel and as many others crowded
about the morgue seeking to view the
remains of the unfortunate girl.
Iris morning three physicians held
post norton over the body of the
murdered girl and discovered that two
shots had hit the mark. One of the
bullets had pierced the brain and the
second was located in the breast.
Either of the wounds would have
proven fatal. The remains of Miss
Davis we're shipped to Milwaukee for
interment late this afternoon. The
friends of the murdered woman raised
a small sum of money which was
turned over to the officials to defray
the expenses of the funeral. The re-
mains will be buried in the Union GEM
etery in Milwaukee tomorrow after
noon.

FRIENDS BID FAREWELL.
Large Number of Friends Bid Farewell to
Rev. and Mrs Dornfeld.

Rev. and Mrs Dornfeld.
One of the most affecting services
ever held in Kenosha was held at the
German Lutheran school hall Tuesday
evening when the members of the
church gathered in a body to bid fare
we'll to their retiring pastor, Rev. E.
Dornfeld. The meeting was one of
the most touching ever held in the
city and nearly every member of the
congregation was present. During the
evening music was furnished by the
two choirs of the church and the Rev.
Mr.. Jaeger, of Racine, delivered the
farewell address.
In concluding his address the min
lister spoke of the warm friendship that
had existed between the pastor and
the people for so many years, and pre-
serted Mr.. Dorufe1d with a center
table, rocking chair and a large rug
as token of the respect in which he
was held by the people. Later Mrs.
Dornfeld was presented with a gold
watch by the members of the Ladies'
Society of the church.
Mr.. Dornfe1d attempted to respond
to the remarks, but his eyes filled with
tears and he could only bespeak his
thanks to the people for their many
kindnesses during his seventeen years
as pastor of the church. After the
presentation speeches were over re-
freshments were served in the hall and
the evening closed with an hour of
social gaiety.

Avery Tells of His Crime.

Dan "Ginger" Avery, the negro who
was arrested in Waukegan Monday
morning on charge of numbering his
sweetheart, Miss Rachel Davis, in this
city Saturday night, made full con
fession to representative Of the
EVENING News Monday evening.
Avery not only admits his crime but
glories in it, and claims that he has
done Gods service in Kidding the
world of the woman.
The confession of Avery makes his
victim out an immoral woman wholly
unfit for the consideration of deceut
people. In prefacing the story of his
crime Avery made but one requesr, and
that was that the papers would not
make him out bad niger" Before
a crowd of police officers and the News
man Avery gave the first story of his
crime as follows:
Il had known the Davis woman for
some time and since she joined our
company four weeks ago we had lived

Avery is Captured.
Monday afternoon phone message
was received from Waukegan stating
| that Dan Avery, the murderer, had been
captured just north of Waukegan by
Police Officer Tyrell, of the Waukegan
force, at 10 O'Clock this morning. At
the time of the capture of the negro he
was seen walking along on the track
and report was at once sent to the
Waukegan police Office. The officers
were sent out in groups to surround the
negro and cut off all hope of escape.
| One of the police officers was on the
bluff back of the negro when Officer
Tyrell rushed on him and covered him
with revolver. The negro started to
run but when he saw that his escape
was cut off he took on an attitude of
terror and begged for mercy. The
warning revolver in the hands of the
officer terrified the man, and by this
time Tyrell had been joined by other
!! officers. They at once took the negro
into custody and began to interview
him. He denied his identity and
stated that he was laborer who had
been employed at Zion City and had
started to walk to Waukegan to secure
work. Later on he admitted his iden-
tity.
L. rl1S 81 H.
in the chase was called into service
assAA few minutes later the negro was
landed in the county Jail. When he
was searched it was found that the
fellow was armed to the teeth. He
had revolver of thirty-two calibre
out of which two bullets were missing.
He also had large knife and pair
of brass knuckles. All the weapons
were taken in charge by the officers at
Waukegan. la3a139w
At the Jail Avery made himself COM
Portable and when the newspaper men
went to interview him few minutes
later he was singing and seemed to be
in the best of spirits. He did not at
tempt to make any denial of the crime
and pleaded in justification that the
woman had threatened to poison him
and he took her life in self defense.
He told most remarkable story of
his escape from Kenosha and declared
that he was not aware Of the fact that
he had killed the woman. He said
that after the shots were fred he fed
from the hotel and spent the night
asleep in vacant lot in the midst of
the city and thathe was not molested.
In the morning he walked up to the
Northwestern railway station and
was in conversation with white man.
Here he first learned that his sweet.
heart had fallen the victim of the
bullet and he at once began to make
preparations to get out of the city.
AS soon as he discovered that he was
murderer he started south along the
railway track and walked on to Zion
City. He remained in Zion until this
morning early when he slipped out
and started to Waukegan. The man
seemed to have no fear of punishment
and claimed that the woman had sew
eral times threarened to kill him and
that he was forced to fire in self de-
