Ministers Association Not Yet Ready
for the Open Crusade Against
Sabbath Violation.
SUGGEST COUNTER IRRITANTs
Ministers Favor the Opening of Parks and
Band Concerts to offer Harmless
Amusement for the Masses.

The ministers of the city held their
regular Monday morning meeting to-
day at the conference room of the Y.
M. G. "a. building but they are not yet
ready to give out any plans that they
may have for fight against violation
of the Sabbath in Kenosha. All the
ministers were present at the meet
ing but little of Importance 10 the
public was done as much of the time
was given up to discussing plans to
furnish harmless amusement for the
younger people of the city in order to
draw them away from the amusements
which are opposed by the churches.
In short it is proposed to make the
church competitor with the devil and
it is possible that in the near future
amusements will be offered in Kenosha
on Sunday afternoons and evenings
which will be directly under the aus
pices of the church people of the city.
At the meeting this morning a reso1u-
tion was passed to complete the organ
ization of the association on next
Monday morning, and until the organ
ization is completed it is probable that
nothing of a radical nature will be
done.
The Rev. Florence Buck of the Uni
tartan church, suggested the idea of a
counter irritant for Sunday amuse-
ments this morning at the meeting
and it was her suggestion that the as
ISOLATION at once take some action to
secure park where the unemployed
people of the city could spend their
Sundays. Miss Bucks plan to compete
with Sunday base bali and the Sunday
saloon even goes further as she has
suggested that band be secured and
that concerts be given for the benefit
of the people. A band concert is GER
tainly q great drawing card and the
ministers seemed to take kindly to the
suggestion. This plan has been tried
in many of the large cities and it has
been shown to be practical one but
there is some doubt as to it's utility in
a city the size of Kenosha.
The entire people of the city will be
glad to join with the ministers in any
effort that can be made to secure more
breathing places for the people of the
city. One of Kenosha's greatest needs
is a park where the people can GO and
spend Sunday afternoon without a
feeling of intrusion. If such a place
was provided for the people of the city
there is no doubt but that great deal
of the trade that now.keeps the saloons
open on Sunday would be found in the
parks enjoying a breath Of fresh air.
At the next meeting of the associa-
ton to be held next Monday it is
thought that the ministers will out
line some definite line of work.

ATTACKED BY DOGS
Mrs. John Kautenberg Seriously Injured at
the Garfield House Saturday Evening

Mrs. John Kautenberg Seriously Injured at
the Garfield House Saturday Evening
Mrs. John Kautenberg was seriously
injured at the Garfield House last Sat
urday evening when she was attacked
by two large dogs belonging to b.
Geek the proprietor Of the house. Mrs.
Kautenburg had gone to the hotel on
an errand, and as she entered the front
door Of the house the two dogs leaped
at her. The woman fell to the floor
in her fright and one of the dogs
planted his teeth IN her right shoulder
making two ngly wounds. The other
dog tore the clothing from the woman s
back and tore the flesh on the back.
AS soon as possible Mrs. Kautenberg
called DR.. T. e. Andreswho treated the
wounds. The wounds are exceedingly
painful but It is not thought that they
are dangerous.
Mrs. Kautenberg reported the case
to the police this morning and an
effort is being made to have the dogs
killed. Neither of the dogs have shown
any signs of suffering frem rabies and
for this reason it wilr be hard to secure
an order for their execution.

Anna Mueller. Now in County Jail. to be
Sent Back to Bavaria Next Week
Annie Mueller, the sixteen.year-o1d
girl who is serving a term in the
county jail on a charge of petit lar
ceny, is the happiest little girl in the
city today, for she was informed this
morning that within another week she
will be allowed to leave her prison
home and return to the home of her
parents in Bavaria.
1t has been discovered that the girl
is without friends ia this country, and
an uncle has consented to furnish the
funds to send her back to her parents
if the officials of the county will COM
mute her sentence so as to allow her to
leave the country on a steamer which
sails next week. This permission will
undoubtedly be granted, and the girl
will leave on next Monday for New
York to start on her long trip.
1t is learned that when the girl came
to this country she was but thirteen
years of age. She came alone, and
since that time has earned her living
by working as house maid.

Guilt" Company in the Fall
"Rube" Waddell, whose parents
tried to disguise him early in life by
christening him Edward, now showing
at Sportsman's park in ST. Louis,
formerly member of the Kenosha
base ball team, now with the Philadel-
pfia Athletics, has signed a new con-
tract which is neither base ball nor
matrimony, but theatrical.
William Garen, manager of Hav-

ing. When cross-questioned he ad.
mitted that he had signed Waddel1 for
next fall to play some part unknown in
his ''Stain Of Guilt company, which
has just closed a tour Of the north and

FACTS ABOUT THE SEWERS.

The main thirty-six inch sewer goes
up Grand Avenue close to the western
limits Of the present sewer district.
This sewer is only six inches smaller
than the big forty-two inch sewer
which drains the whole north side and
yet some people profess to believe that
if the sewer district is extended the
Grand Avenue sewer will be overload
ed. AS a matter of fact the Grand
Avenue sewer can take care of ten
times the people that now use it or are
ever likely to use it. Even when the
Rice property is taken into the city,
the Grand Avenue sewer will be able
to drain that to without any trouble.

QUESTION ANSWERED.

Yes. August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought of using
anything else for, Indigestion or Bill
1iousness. Doctors were scarce and
they seldom heard Of Appendicitis,
Nervous Prostitution or Heart failure,
etc. They used August Flower to
clean out the system and stop fermeu-
tat;on Of undigested food, regulate the
action of the liver, stimulate the
nervous and organic action of the sys-
tenn, and that is all they took when
feeling dull and bad with headaches
and other aches. You only need few
doses of Green's August Flower, in
liquid form to,make you satisfied there
is nothing serious the matter with you.
You can get this reliable remedy at all
druggists. Price pc and 75c.

FIGHTING FOB HERMANN.
President of Interstate League Tries High
Handed Trick with Manager Alleman.


Handed Trick with Manager Alleman.
Manager e. G. A1leman of the Ke-
nosha Interstate League base ball
team has received an insulting letter
from President Armstrong Of the Ra-
cine team, demanding that Hermann
be released by the Kenosha manage
ment. Sundayssnight Manager Allie
man telegraphed the President of the
League that Hermann would not be
released, and the fight is now on Ia
earnest.
Armstrong nEhis letter attempts to
tell A1leman how the game of base ball
should be CARRIED on in Leagues, and
insists thats Hermann should be the
property of the Racine team notwitl1-
standing the fact that that team re-
fused to Haccept the services of the
stocky little catcher at the opening of
the season. 1t is safe to say that the
matter will come up before the next
meeting of the State League mana
gers, and Manager Alleman Is getting
ready to fight for his man.
Armstrong stated that if Hermann
played on Sunday Kenosha would be
suspended from the League, but thus
far no notice of such action has been
received here. The bluff of Mr.. Arm
strong will be properly called by the
Kenosha manager, and it is more than
probable that he will have the support
of a large number of the other mana
gers in his fight for possession Of Herr
mann.

Frank GiIIOttee Tells the Police of an
Assault Committed on Him
Sunday Evening.
MAY NOT SURVIVE His INJURIES
Glllottee Was Badly Injured but Story OF
Assault is Doubted-Case Furnishes
Mystery for the Police.


Frank Gillottee, an Italian from Chi.
cago, residing temporarily in the Ital.
ian colony in the Calkins' building al
the corner of Main and Market streets,
has brought mystery for the police
to solve. Last Saturday night just
before midnight the man was found by
Police Officer Wade wandering about
on the North side. He was bleeding
profusely from a half dozen bad
wounds on his head and face, and the
entire upper part of his body seemed
to be mass Of blood. Wade took the
man in charge and took him to the
Office of the Chief of Police where the
injured man related story of az as
sault watch started all the officers out
to look FOR couple of bad men.
Gillottee claims that he had been
employed on the beach North of the
Sanitarium, and he started back to Ke-
nosha shortly after ten O'Clock Satur-
day night. When he was walking
past the ice houses just North Of the
city limits two men approached him
and asked for some tobacco. Gil1ottee
reached for his tobacco pouch to hand
It to the men when they jumped on
him and assaulted and robbed him.
From the appearance of the Italian
the men must have been armed with
both knives and clubs, and it is posi-
BILE that one of them attempted to
strike the victim with dagger.
Gillottee claims that the men left
him in an unconscious condition lying
along the road, and that as soon as he
regained consciousness he started for
home and met the police officer. AS
soon as possible Gil1ottee was taken to
his apartments and Or. Andre was
called to attend him. An examina.
ton showed that he had two great
gashes ia the side of his head, evi.
IDENTITY made by some blunt instrument
The face of the man was completely
covered with cuts and bruises seem.
ingly made with knife, aud in his
right elbow was large round hole
which seemed to have beer made by a
round knife. The mans condition is
serious and it is feared dat he will
die.
The police seem to doubt the story
told by Gil1ottee, and it seems more
reasonable to believe that the man was
struck by trolley car. His wounds
so completely cover the top part of his
body that had he been the victim of an
assault it would have kept a man busy
for some fifteen minutes making the
wounds. 1t is alleged that when Gill
lottee was taken to his rooms he was
suffering from decided attack of in
toxicstion, and was well nigh uncon-
scious from liquor.
The police took up the case Satur-
day night and the mem bers of the pc.
lice force were sent to the scene of the
alleged assault to make an effort to
discover the assaiIants, but no trace Of
them was found. It is alleged that
the money which Gillottee had when
he left the rooms was found in his
clothes after he returned home, and
this is another reason for disregarding
the story of the assault.

Game RepIete with Brilliant Plays ls wit
pessed by Crowd OF 1900 People and
wild Scenes Marked Close of Contest
Results Yesterday.
standinr Of the Interstate league:
Kenosha Interstate

The Kenosha Interstate League
team put the first crimp ia the record
Of the Etgiu team yesterday afternoon
when in an eleven inning game replete
with brilliant plays, the home team
won out BY the close margin OF three
to two The game was one OF the
rrsrdest exhibitions of the National
snort ever seen on a local diamond and
II will po down as one Of the bright
spots ia the base ball history OF Keno
sha. Flushed with the pride Of victor
les in the past. the EIgin team had ex-
pected 70 NOW down the Kenosha
plavers. but the moving was all done
bv their opponents and a worse dis
appointed lot of players never LETT
Kenosha.
The game was splendidly played by
both the local team and by their op-
moments. but when old Pop Schooley
trotted over the plate with the winning
run In the eleventh inuiug, the crowd
threw discretion to the winds and for
fifteen minutes pandemonium reigned.
n was ali over before the Elgin play
ers could pull themselves together At
the end of the frst half Of the eleventh
inning the score was tie each team
having two runs. Then the game
really started. Schooley led OH with
base on balls and Hanks followed It
nm with hit. Then Hermann came
uo to hat and an error allowed not only
the batter to reach this base but
Schooley taking all the chances possi-
bic made a run for home and beat the
ball out by half a yard
1t was a great finish for a great
pane and 1t aroused great interest
in the Kenosha team among the fol-
lowers of the game in Kenosha.
The game started with Sthe aElgin
team at the bat and when Fred PETER
the old Chicago player appeared ia the
umpire's box, there was shout of
approval and never during the game
was there time when either team saw
fit to object to the rulings Of the veter.
an player.
For a time it looked as If the Elgin
team would win the game insthe first
inning as the bases were full without
single man being retired. But the
Keuosha team pulled itself together
and contrary to ali expectations Elgin
was retired without scoring. For the
next three innings the bases were kept
full by both teams, but no one scored.
In the fifth the first two Elgin players
up led off with two Dagger and a
single and later on another hit brought
in a second score. In the last half of
the inning Kenosha evened things up
and this ended the scoring until the
last half of the eleventh inning when
Schooley brought in the winning run.
