rejected. Mr.. Boaz offered an amendment
which was adopted prohibiting clerks and

ed providing that members absent with

Mr.. Churchman sought to reduce the
salary Of the circuit judge Of Richmond
and the other Judges In the first class
from $500 to $500, and he produced the
statistics to show that his contention was
a proper one.
The amendment was earnestly opposed
by Mr.. Whitehead, of Norfolk, and IA
vored by Mr.. Sipe, who spoke ably and
who was engaged several times by Messrs.
Whitehead and Folkes In running debates
as to the work done by the courts Of
Norfolk and Richmond.
Mr.. Sipe did not believe $500 was enouEl
for the judges referred to. but he thought
$500 was too much and he therefore
moved q substitute placing them at 5000.
Mr.. Folkes spoke earnestly against the
substitute and the amendment and they
were both rejected.
The committee offered an amendment
fixing the salary Of tho Secretary Of the
Commonwealth at $3.50 Instead of $500

Captain Breen Puts Up Hundred Dollars
That Kenosha Can Beat Racine.
It is now up to Racine. Peter Breen,
the captain of the Kenosha team, has
sent challenge to the Racine players
and to back the challenge up he has
laid up hundred dollars for game
with the Racine club. If Manager
Armstrong or Captain Duffy or any
other of the set Of Racine sports can
raise hundred dollars to cover the
money the game is on.
Breen is certain that Kenosha can
defeat Racine in any fair sort of a
contest and he has offered the Racine
people the chance to select the grounds
if they will only put up the money.
If the game is played it will take
place week from next Sunday and
Manager Breen will put the same team
on the diamond that defeated the Ra-
cine aggregation Sunday.
It is not thought that the Racine
bunch will cover the money as the
players had the scare of their lives in
the game on Sunday, and it is not
thought that Armstrong will dare put
his team against the Kenosha boys for
another game

Flames Threaten to Destroy Long Home
but are Extinguished With Small Loss.

O'Clock Monday night, and while the

the destruction of the old building the
prompt arrival of the department man.
aged to save the old building from de-
struction. The FIRE was extinguished
with small loss of less than humid
red dollars.
A score of Italian families inhabit
the old ruins and when it was discov-
cred that the buildings were afire, con-
fusion reigned and the families began
to dump their household goods into
the street. The arrival of the fremen
seemed to give confidence and the gen.
eral removal was stopped in short
order The FIRE originated in the resi-
dence of carpenter by the name of
Wadhams, and it was caused by the
explosion of a gasoline stove. The
flames spread rapidly, but one stream
of water soon smothered the fire. The
loss falls mostly on 1.-THE families who
had furniture III the different apart
ments in the house.

DEFIANCE FOR BEGGS.
Northwestern Lakes Electric Railway
Company to Parallel Lines From
Kenosha to Milwaukee.
STATE CHARTER IS AMENDED.
New Company Preparing for Long Fight
With Big Milwaukee Company fer
Inter Urban Traffic.

The Northwestern Lakes Electric
company, which controls the RICH of
way for railroad between the State
Line and Kenosha, has thrown down a
def to John /. Beggs and his Mi1wau-
kee syndicate, and on Saturday even
ing the new company announced that
it would build a parallel line between
Kenosha and Milwaukee and in this
way seek to force division of the
inter urban traffic.
The decision was reached at meet
ing of the directors of the new COM
pany held on Saturday. The entire
Board of Directors including the late
Alexander Clark, Samuel M. Hamil-
ton, Charles McIlvane, E. P. Wheeler
and Fred Kull was present at the
meeting. The resolution in regard to
the plans for the parallel line, which
has been filed at Madison as an amend
ment to the charter of the company,
was as follows:
Resolved, That branch road from
the main line of the Chicago and North
western Lakes Electric Railway com.
pany be constructed and operated by
said company from a point where the
main line Of said company iptersects
the south State ,line of Wisconsin, in
thescounty of Kenosha, into the city
of Milwaukee; said branch to be about
forty five miles in length, and to pass
through the counties of Kenosha, Ra-
cine and Milwaukee"
The announcement of the company
that the parallel line would be built
seems to have caused quite little stir
among the officials of the Milwaukee
company, and the leaders of that com
pany have already begun to discourage
the building Of the second line. There
| is little doubt but that the building OF
| the rival road will be fraught with
many difficulties in the way of secur-
ling right of way, as the Milwaukee
company will throw every possible
obstacle in the way of the invading
company.
The invaders will have decided
advantage in the fact that the COM
parry will control the route to the south
of Kenosha, and should the right to
the north be secured much of the traf-
fc that now runs with the NJ. r. & K.
line will be turned over to the new
company.
Clark and his associates have been
planning on this route for years, and
it is said that the company has not
only abundant capital for the build
ing of the line, but that they are pre-
pared to put up pretty good fight for
franchise rights in the city of Milwau-
kee. A short time ago a franchise
was secured in Milwaukee for an ele
waited road, and it is possible that the
company will be able to secure the
grant made at that time.
TIE line as planned will be most
extensive one, as it will connect Mil.
waukee with all the lake regions in
Southern Wisconsin.

CHARGED WITH AWFUL CRIME,
James Plum of Milwaukee in Jail on Charge
of Criminally Assaulting q Girl,

James Plum of Milwaukee in Jail on Charge
of Crlminally Assuming Girl.
James Plum who resides at 361 Fiji
teenth avenue, Milwaukee, and who
has been in the employ of the Milwau-
.kee road for the past thirty-four years,
was arrested in Milwaukee Sunday
afternoon by Deputy Sheriff Chris
Jensen and he is now ia the county
jail awaiting a hearing on one Of the
most sensational charges ever made In
the county.
Plum is accused of committing a
criminal assault on Clara Regt the
eleven year old daughter Of Carl Hegt
OF the village Of Roundout, Ill. The
crime is alleged to have been ommit
ted at the village Of Somers on August
13, but the child's condition has been
so critical that no warrant for the ar
rest of Plum was issued until last Sat
urday.
Plum stoutly declares his innocence
Of the grave crime with which he is
charged and has employed counsel to
defend him.
According to the story told by Hegt
to the sheriff Plum had been accus-
toned to taking girls from Roundout
10 Milwaukee with him on the freight
train of which he was conductor. He
is alleged to have taken the little Hegt
girl on the day the crime was commit
ted and it is claimed that while the
crew was switching car at the town
Of Somers Plum took the little girl into
the caboose of.the train and accomp-
lished his purpose.
Plum was seen at the county jail
Monday morning, but absolutely re-
fused to make any statement in regard
to the case more than to admit that he
had heard that the child was in very
critical condition. He alleges that he
will have no trouble in proving his
innocence.
AS the little girl may die from the
injuries she received it is proba BILE
that the case will be continued pend
ing her Death or recovery.
