Chicago, May 16. - Beginning as
pickpocket in Dayton, Ohio, ten years
ago, John Lepger, alias Harold c.
Mills, Harold G. Reed and Homer Z.
Reed, to escape whom Miss Laura
Stickler jumped out of third-story
window in the Newport hotel, has run
the gamut of crime. He is now con-
fined in the Harrison street Jail under
charges of abduction, attempted Grim
inal assault and wife abandonment.
Bigamy and embezzlement will un-
doubtedly be added to the charges TO-
day
From Miss Florence Beale, who mar
ried the man last October, supposing
his name to be Mills, his true name
was learned and also a number OF
facts concerning his criminal career.
It has been established beyond a
doubt that he served term in the
Ohio penitentiary in 1894
For Picking Pockets,
being sent up from Dayton. and that
he has married women in various parts
of the country without going through
the formality OF securing divorce.
"The man whom l supposed to be
Harold C. Mills and my lawful husband
is John Lepger, an ex-conv:ct OF Ohio,
said Miss Beale. "He has been mar
ried to three women besides myself TO

From another source it is learned
that Lepger, under various aliases
formed enterprises in a number OF
places, principally in Ohio. In most
cases he absconded with the funds, vic
timizing stockholders and investors.

On one occasion, when he was six

at length when they were all standing
at the top of a grassy slope William
Fisher challenged Carnegie to foot

Books Were busted Some Way.
Six months ago most of the books In
the library were new and had nice
clean bindings. Their owner went
away for his health about that time,
and as none of the rest of the fanny
ran to literature the books weresleft
to the tender mercies of a serving
maid. Last week the man came home.
After stopping to kiss his wife and
children he hurried into his library to
say hello to his books. They were SO
changed he hardly knew them. In
stead of the rich red and green and
blue covers that smiled back at him
when he babe them goodbye, he looked
upon dingy cloth and leather that
seemed begrimed with the dust of
centuries. Without delay he called in
the maid and inquired into the aged
appearance of his pets
what did you dust them with?" he
asked.
"A rag" said she.
Lets see it," said the man.
The girl stalked haughtily toward

"No wonder my books are ruined"
he said, ''if you have been grinding

and library attendants in general learn
that no book should be touched with
cloth that is not as soft as wool and

Rev. Florence Buck Reads Note
worthy Paper Before the Ladies
OF Kenosha Wednesday.
THE LITERATURE OF QUEEN ANNE
Miss Buck Gives an Interesting Resume of
the Famous Writers of That Period of
English Literary History.

The literature of the age of Queen
Anne formed "a very interesting sub
ject for discussion at the regular fort
nightly meeting of the Kenosha
Woman's club Wednesday afternoon
and the afternoon proved to be one of
the most interesting ever enjoyed by
the club members.
The paper for the afternoon was
read by the Rev. Florence Buck, who
has made wide study of English lit
erature, and who presented the lead
| ing facts in regard to this very inter-
esting period of English literary his
tory most charming manner. In
her talk she brought out the fact that
the age Of Queen Anne was to most
people the most characteristic period
of English literature and to many its
writer's have proven more interesting
and highly enjoyable than even the
writer's of the more famous Elizabeth
ian period. Miss Buck spoke IN gen.
eral of the conditions which governed
the writer's in the time Of Queen Anne,
of the fierce contests in politics and of
the struggle between church and state,
and showed that these conditions had
in large measure given the impetus
for the writings of the men who had
made the period famous.
She spoke of the long list of writer's
who had contributed to literature IN
England at that time, but spoke more
especially of the works of the great
political writer's. She spoke of Addi-
son and ''Dick'' Steele and the "Tat-
tier" and the Spectator" weaving a
pretty story of the dissimilar lives of
the two men who worked in unison to
give the English speaking race its
first newspapers. She spoke Of Pope
and his didactic poetry, and in a most
interesting vein told the life story of
Jonathan Swift, that peerless English
satirist. In speaking of Swift Miss
Buck had a wide field for her work,
and this portion of her paper proved to
be of most interesting nature. Dur
ing the afternoon she read many Sc
lections from the different writer's in
illustration of their works.
At the conclusion of the paper an in
teresting discussion was lead by Mrs.
VIM. P. Robinson, assisted by Mes.
danes w. r. Cheever and L. E. Kali
tenbach. During the afternoon music
was furnished by Mrs. W. H. Ham
mill and Miss Sherwood. The after
noon closed with the usual cup of tea,
Mesdames Grant and Bailey presiding
at the tables.
The next meeting of the club will be
held on the afternoon of May 6, at
which time Mrs. Fl. S. VanIngen will
read a paper on Colonial Homes"
The annual meeting of the club will
be held on the last Saturday in May
and the ballots for the annual election
of officers are now in the hands of the
club members.

Returns From Western Trip and Says
Horn Silver Mine is Proving
Valuable Property
KEN0sHA STOCKHOLDERS CONTROL
Over Million Dollars Worth of the Stock
in the Mine and Expect to Make
Big Profits

Hope has been held out to the peo-
pie of Kenosha who have purchased
stock in the Horn Silver Nine" as
H. Reber, the agent of the stockhold-
ers, who was recently sent by them to
investigate the mine, has returned
home and he reports that in his opin-
ion the mine will prove a paying ven
tpre.
More than a million dollars wort tn of
stock of the company is held IN Keno
sha and for some time the stock hold
ers have been exceedingly anxious in
regard to their holdings. During his
visit west Mr.. Reber spent several
days in the neighborhood of the mine.
He states that the mine seems to be
all right and that it is possible that
the stock holders will receive some re-
turn for their money during the pres
ent year.
The mine is being worked at pres :
ent but it is impossible for the work
men to reach the ore on account of the
fact that the mine is filled with
foul air. In order to reach the ore
tunnel FIVE hundred feet long has been
dug into the hill and this tunnel shows
valuable deposits of silver at several
places. In order to be able to work
this ore it has been found necessary to
build tunnel from the base to the
top of the mountain in order to secure
some sort of ventilation.
Mr.. Reber states that there is un-
doubtedly vast amount of va1ua bic
ruby silver in the mine. One of the
veins is eight feet in thickness, and
the dirt taken from this vein has as
sayed as high as seven hundred dollars
worth Of silver to the ton. The silver
is practically inexhaustible, and if the
mine is ever in condition to work there
is no doubt but that the stock holders
will reap handsome profits. A ma jor.
ity Of the stock is now held in Keno.
sha, and there are over three hundred
stock holders in this city.
The company is capitalized at two
million dollars, and the stock was solo
to Kenosha people at the rate of five
cents share. The representative Of
the local stock holders believes that in
a short time the stock in the mine will
have decided increase III value. Il
is proba Bile that at the next meeting OF
the directors Of the mine the company
will be recognized and Kenosha PEG
pie put in entire control of the bust
ness.
