WHO WAS GLAssMAN.

Authorities at Twin Lakes Unab,a - ,,,s-
cover Identity of Man Killed July 4th.
Deep mystery surrounds the identity
OF mau named Harry Glassman who
was drowned at Twin Lakes last Satur-
day and 40 relatives of the deceased
can be found to take charge of the I'M
inferred remains. Tha officials of the
county last night sent coffin to the
station and the remains will be buried
this afternoon. Glassman was evi-
IDENTIFY man of the better classes and
had come to one of the resorts at Twin
Lakes on the morning of July 4 for a
nshing trip. He remained about the
station during the morning nours of
the day and In the afternoon he Sc
cured boat ard went out on the lake
10 hsh. He RODE lar out into the CEN
ter OF the lake, and while fishing a
WIND came up and capsized the boat.
Glassman was unable to swim and al
though he called pitifully for aid from
the shore no one could reach him be-
fore he sank to the bottom of the lake
Ihe remains were recovered a short
time after the accident and since that
time some trace of the man has been
sought. He was well dressed. and in
his pocket was found card which
seemed to show that the man was
Harry Glassmau, but it gave no indi-
cation as to the business or home of
the unfortunate man. He was tall and
weighed in the neighborhood of two
hundred pounds. Glassman seemed to
have no near friends at the lake and
seemed'to be alone. He arrived on the
morning train and had evidently gone
out to the station from Kenosha and
for thsS reason it is impossible to tell
whether he came to Kenosha from the
north or south. No letters had been
received for him and no one has been
able to identify the remains. The JUS
t1ce from the town of Salem called a
jury and after investigating the acct
deut the jury returned verdict of
accidental death. The remains win
be buried at the expense of the county.
Some of the people who were near
the lake at the time of the accident
seem to think thaS it is possible that
Glassman committed suicide, but the
coroner's jury found little evidence to
support such theory.
Glsssman was in the best of spirits
when he took the boat and started ont
into the lake, and the men about the
shores seemed to be of the opinion that
ne was an expert swimmer and fisher
man.
The drowning of the man haa now
been reported to surrounding cities and
It is possible that some trace of his
relatives will be found through the
medium of the papers.

The address of the day was delivered
by the Hon. William Shielding, judge
of the Municipal Count of Racine. In
his eloquent address Mr.. Shielding
recalled the glorious history Of the
Nation from the time of the landing
of the Mayhower on the banks of the
Atlantic up TO the present time. He
spoke of the events which led up to the
signing Of the Declaration of In
dependence, and of the stirring events
that had come up in the defense Of the
Nation. He paid tribute to the men
who had served the country on the
field Of battle, and to the men who had
served in the army of peace. In clos
ing he said:
"Fellow citizens, let us on this gala
day Of our independence, amid general
rejoicings, bow our heads aud hearts
in humble alteration to the Almighty
Power, and renew the holy vows Of
political equality and declare our fixed
resolve to be, as did our fathers and
their fathers, to transmit to our pos
terity the inestimable heritage be-
queathed to US through the courage,
wisdom and foresight of those who
labored and fought, under Divine
guidance, not for themselves, but for
their children's children.
LET us today do honor to that spirit
Of Liberty and Equality which in 1916
moved our forefathers to declare for
American freedom, and which planted
ia the hearts of freeborn Americans
for all time to come. even to eternity,

need be. to die for country

Mob OF Ninety Italian Workmen Seek
Revenge for the Killing OF a Com.
rade by the Gravel Train.
FOREMAN HAS A NARROW ESCAPE.
One of the Leaders of the Mob Arrested
and Fined.-DTan Killed was Ga.brene
Tolero and He Resided in Kenosha.

]
Thirsting for revenge on account OF
the fact that one of their fellow
countrymen Gabrielle Rolero had been
killed on the railway, mob of ninety
Italian rnen aud boys made dastard1y
assault on Seren Smith a section boss
in the employ Of the Northwestern
Railway Company Monday evening.
The assault followed the removal of
the dead Italian to the morgue.
Tolero it seems had been popular
among the Italians of the city and
when his life1ess remains were brought
in after the accident the Ita1ians went
from all parts of the city to the station
to look after the remains. Among the
number were many who had been
friends of the dead man. Agent Sey-
mour called in Smith and the other
men on the section in order to secure
some account of the accident and the
appearance of Smith was the signal
for an uprising among the friends of
the dead man. Charging Smith with
being responsible for the death of
about him and the leaders of the mob
began the assault by attacking Smith
with their fists. 1t is claimed that the
men were prepared to murder the
foreman in their rage. Smith attempt
ed to escape from the crowd but four
Of the Italians bore him down and he
was being pretty badly beaten up
when Agent Seymour went to his
assistance. AT the same time call
for the police was sent ia and officer
Stevens who was near the scene of the
riot placed Charles Gilotte said to have
been ring leader under arrest. Gill
otte was at once taken to the justice
Office and fined.
Smith escaped with slight in juries.
One of his teeth were knocked out and
his face was badly bruised by half a
dozen blows from the leaders of the
mob. Agent Seymour was not'injured
in any way. It is probable that more
arrests will follow, as the matter has
been reported to the detectives of the
railway company. The Italian up-
rising caused quite little excitement.
The coroner's jury called to investi-
gate the death of Tolero returned
verdict of accidental death. The dead
man was known on the pay roll of the
railway company as William Tubero
but his real name was Gabrielle Toll

and had lived on Rock street for some
time. is survived by a wife and

EUROPEAN CLUB CLOSED.
Fred Norman Leaves the City Suddenly
Creditors Look for Money.


The European Club in the Meyers
block, over which Fred Norman pre-
sided as steward, is closed: and Mr..
Norman has left the city for parts un-
known. He left on last Wednesday
evening, and the creditors are now
anxiously looking for something to
make good the bills left behind. Incl
dentally the Norman restaurant on
Main street is financially crippled.
The departure of Norman and the
closing IF the Club rooms is simply
another failure of social Club ia Ke-
nosha, and the creditors will proba bly,
have reason to remember the place for
some time It is claimed that Norman
left behind unpaid bills to the extent
of nearly five hundred dollars, while
the furniture and other things IL the
Club rooms were completely covered by
mortgages. Mrs. Jennie Tugwel1 had
a mortgage on the Clubs property for
upwards Of FIVE hundred dollars, and
there is scarcely anything left on which
she can levy to secure the return of
her money.
Norman, accompanied by his wife
and baby, left the city last Thursday,
and shortly after his departure a note
was found ia which he stated that he
recognized that the venture was a
failure, and that he would not return
to Kenosha.
The Hannah & Hogg company of Chi
cago is said to be one of the largest
creditors of the concern, and nothing
will be done until the representative of
the company reaches Kenosha.
The restaurant which was the latest
venture Of Norman's, is still practi-
ca1ly the property of Miss Loescher,
and it IS open pending some settle
ment.
The creditors will have a. meeting
tomorrow, at which time it will be de-
cided what disposition will be made of
the property of Norman.

and Sunday victory over the tail-enders
has placed the Kenosha team once
more in the the class with Elgin and
the Marquettes.
The game cannot be said to have
been great credit to the Kenosha
team for it was simply case of dub
maeting dub and something had to
give. Luck broke ia favor Of the Ke-
nQsha team and from a list of errors
as long as the moral law the home
team came out of the celebration days
with two victories to their credit. 1t
would be impossible to tell the story of
the games in detail for It would be
such record of nisplays that it would
be worse than monotonous.
The Sunday game had a redeeming
feature in the pitching ofiHugg and it
must be admitted that the Keno
sha players did little better than in
the former contests. But Duffy, who
had been assigned to pitch for the
Athletics, was in favor of giving the
game to Kenosha and he managed to
allow enough men to walk to base to
enable the Kenoshas to add six runs to
the score of the season while the errors
of the Kenosha team only permitted
the Athletics to make four ta1lies.
The game was witnessed by crowd
of about six hundred people. The
