HE USED a. KNIFE
Carl Hansen Arrested tuesday Night
on a Charge OF AssauIting the
Members of His Family.
is PLACED UNDER PEACE BONDS

Carl Hansen, residing on Elizabeth
street, was arrested by Undersheriff
Horace Chafee Tuesday afternoon on
charge of making an assault on his
wife and three children.
According to the story Of the neigh
bors OF the couple, Hansen threat
ened to wipe out the whole party, and
before the Sheriff's deputy was called
Hansen had driven the wife and little
ones from the house and threatened
them with long knife.
The incident caused the widest ex-
element in the neighborhood, and the
officers hurried to the house. They
found Hansen in state of serni-in-
tox1cat1on, morose and su11en, and
they had little trouble in getting
him to accompany them to the county
jail. Mrs. Hansen appeared before
the justice but no charge of assault
was made against her husband.
Hansen was taken into the justice
court this morning and seemed to be
deeply penitent for his conduct on
Tuesday. On this account the court
decided to give the man another trial
and he was placed under a peace bond
of $3.50.
The people residing in the neigh
borhood claim that Hansen has been
troublesome for some time, and that
this is not the first time he has forced
his family toI1eave the house. The
officers will keep a close watch on the
conduct Of Hansen, and if he strays
from the narrow path he viii probably
be, hauled up to answer a more serious
charge.

Louis FauIhaber, John Faulhaber anC
Henry Anderson Have an Exciting
Time in the HarbOr.
CHARLES DREPP PROVES A HERO.
Three Boys Playing Along the South Pier
Fall Into the Harbor and are Rescued
After Long Struggle.

Louie Fau1haber, aged IA years,
John Fau1haber, aged II years and
Henry Anderson, aged II years, had
narrow escape from losing their
lives in the waters of the Kenosha
harbor on Tuesday evening and it was
only through the heroism of young
Anderson and Charles Drapp, a spec
tator, that the boys escaped. The.
three boys had been playing along the
pier when Louis Fal1haber lost his
balance and tipped over into the har-
Dor. Johnny Faulhaber, his little
brother, was just behind him and in
attempting to save himself the brother
pulled the little fellow into the water.
Young Anderson, the third of the trio,
saw the danger of the boys and began
to shout Justify for help. At the same
time he set to work to rescue the boys.
Hanging by his hands to the top of
the pier he managed to reach one of
his feet to Louis Faulhaber and the
latter grabbing like drowning man
pulled young Anderson into the water.
Anderson could swim little and he
made further efforts to save the boys.
BY this time large crowd had gath
cred at the scene of the accident and
all sorts Of plans were being con-
s1dered to save the boys. Charles
Drapp came along about that time and
1eaped off the pier. into the harbor.
Way out fifty feet from shore little
Johnny Fau1haber was just going
down for the third time and Drapp
lost no time in swimming to him. Just
as the little head went under the water
Drapp grabbed him and started back
for the pier, The Life Saving Crew
had sbeen notified in the meantime
and had started to the aid of the
drowning boys. They got out to the
pier IN time to pick up Drapp and the
younger Fau1haber boy. Louis Fau1-
haber managed to swim to the pier
and he was rescued by those standing
about the pier. 01e l3 a99a 5a8e4
The other lad was rescued by means
of board being pushed out to him.
The younger of the Fau1haber boys
was completely exhausted and he
would have certainly lost his life had
it not been for the prompt action of
young Drapp. Anderson and Drapp
were the heroes of the incident and
great praise is given to the two by
the members of the LifesSaving Crew.
Captain Cameron has repeatedly is
sued warning to the boys to keep
away from the pier and the parents
of the daring boys should see to it
that this order is carried out.
