RECALLS A MURDER
Death Of John Johnson Of This City at
EIkhOrn Recalls Crime Com
mitted in 1901.
JOHNSON HELD TO BE INSANE.

Judge S1osson of the County Court
this morning received.a letter stating
that John Johnson, an inmate of the
Elkhorn hospital from this county,
had died there on last Thursday.
Johnson had been a RESIDENT of the
county for many years, and was sent
to the asylum in 1901, after having
been resident of the poor house for
some time. His death resulted from
pneumonia, and he had been i'll for
several weeks. The remains were in
tered at E1khorn.
The death of Johnson recalls the
murder of Theodore Borkes, an old
German army officer, which occurred
at the City Poor House on the after
noon of May Is, 1901. Borkes had
been an inmate of the poor house, and
had been troublesome fellow. Dur
ing the afternoon before his death he
had quarre11ed with Johnson, and
witnesses testified that the latter had
threatened to kill him. Borkes was
later struck on the head with blunt
stick, and he died few hours after
ward. When the coroner held an in
quest over the remains of the dead
man he brought in a verdict of MUIR
der, and recommended that Johnson
be held for the crime. Johnson was
arrested and placed in Jail, but it was
discovered that he was incompetent,
and an examination into his mental
condition was ordered. At this in
Ivestigation it was discovered that
Johnson had been insane for more
than two years. He was sent to the
hospital at Winnebago, and later
transferred to the Wa1worth County
institution, where his death occurred.
The murder of Borkes caused quite a
sensation at the time, as it was found
that he had considerable money. The
Imperial German Consul at Chicago
took UP the case, and sent man here
to see that justice was melted out to
Johnson, the alleged slayer of the old
man. Later on the estate Of Borkes
was administered in the County Court,
and the proceeds sent to the relatives
of the old man in Germany.

PERCENTE IN A STRIKE.
But Not on the SIDE which offered $500
For His Services.

Joe Percente, professional light
weight fighter who left Kenosha re-
Gently, has come to light in Milwau-
kee, where he is again at his post
selling papers on the Wells building
corner, Milwaukee and Wisconsin
streets. and mixing in the journeymen
tai1ors' strike as a side issue. He
gets his name in the prints through
an affidavit he has filed, alleging that
he was invited by one Eugene Casey,
of the tailoring firm of Casey & Sire
sen-Renter, who obtained an injunc-
ton against the journeymen tailors'
union, to s'take a couple of smashes"
at General Organizer c. B. Keever, of
the International Journeymen Tail
ors' union, and William Baumann, a
trustee of union No. IS. Percente al
1eges that Casey offered him five
dollar note and a guarantee to get
him out of jail if arrested, providing
he would do the job. He seems not to
have accepted the commission, though
he went so far as to have the men
pointed out to him.

AFTER TWENTY-SIX YEARS.
Two Survivors OF Famous Indian Fight Hold
a Reunion In Kenosha After Many Years

Reunion In Kenosha After Many Years
An interesting reunion Of battle
SCARED veterans was held at the home
of j. K. Balloon yesterday afternoon,
when Henry Fro11ick came up from
Chicago to spend the afternoon with
Mr.. Balloon. The two men were mem
bers of the same company in the
Indian war of 1876, and they were
among the United States soldiers who
aided in avenging the massacre of
General Custer and his army. Neither
of the men were in the Custer fight,
but they had met on the battlefield at
Red Rock Canon in the following
fall. AT this battle Fro11ick found a
Bible on the battlefield, and Balloon
picked up necklace which had been
made from human fingers. A short
time ago Fro11ick gave to a news
paper correspondent short account
of the finding of the relics, and in
this way the two comrades got trace
of each other.

Saloon Keeper and Bar Tender Ar.
raigned for Admitting Selling
Liquor to Minors.
LICENSES SHOULD BE REVOKED
Frank Percell. a conference.-the Boy
Stood Up to the Bar and Drank Wine.
Whiskey and Beer with Impunity.

One Of the most disgusting cases
ever brought for trial was brought
by Chief of Police Reino1d in Justice
McCarron's court last night when
John Muskos and Tony Schmeta, a
saloon keeper and a bar tender in
charge of a saloon on Milwaukee
avenue, were arrested on2a charge of
selling liquor to minors.
Many similar arrests have been
made in the city, but thisA.- case was
certainly the worst known in police
records. The witness for the city in
Ike case was Frank Perce11, little
fellow fourteen years of age. He ap-
peared in court wearingsa knee pants
suit, and it was evident that he was
not old enough to be beyond the
eighth grade in the ;schoo1slsof the
city. The men admitted that Perce11
had been in the saloon of. Muskos on
Milwaukee avenue anda that he had
secured drink. The boy admitted that
wine, whiskey and sssbeer ahad been
served to him over the bar, and that a
brother sixteen years of age had also
purchased drinks over the bar.
Muskos claimed Ethat nothing but
wine had been served to the boy.
Percell evident1y'Chas formed the
liquor habit as he refusedito divu1ge
the name of the saloon in5 which he
had secured his drinks, until after he
had been threatened with incarcera-
ton in the county jail. He.c1ained
that he had received the whisky from
some old man about the town and
stout1y stuck to this storyssunti1 JUS
tice McCarron 'orderedshim taken to
the county jail, and on the way to the
bastile he told the story of. his drink
ing. The saloon men wereHat once
arrested. The proprietor of the
saloon insisted that the boyshad been
given nothing but wine and he also
insisted that this was not an intoxi-
eating drink. The justice fined the
two men five dollars and costs. and the
lines were promptly paid.
The matter was brought ito the no.
tice of the fire and police commission
this morning and it lis thought that
they will take some immediate action
to have the city council revoke the
license held by Muskos andsrefuse to
issue another license to.fhim. It is
claimed that the Perce11 boy has been
securing drinks in several saloons on
the North Side and other arrests may
follow before the endsof the week.
Some effort will also be made to have
Perce11 sent to some institution where
he will be given a chance to reform.
The police claim that his is the first
violation of the law against selling to
minors reported to them in many
months, but close watch is being
kept for similar violations of the law.

The Marquettes of Chicago man
aged to secure the victory in the
game with the Kenosha Regulars at
Central Park Sunday afternoon, by a
score of 7 to S, but it was hard luck
rather than good playing that gave
them the victory.
At the beginning of the seventh in
ming the Kenosha boys came to bat,
and they had the bases filled and not
a single man retired Ther the rain be-
gan to fall. The weather man failed
to re1ent, and when the Umpire was
forced to call the game on account of
the down-pour the three men were
still on the bases.
The game was good one in that
it showed Skopec to be no pitcher,
and he has been finally retired from
the team. His place will be filled by
pitcher farmed out by the Chicago
American League team.
Skopec seems to like the balloon
ascension act, and in the second in
ming he went up in the air. Before
the boys could steady him down he
had forced in four runs. The Keno
sha players then insisted that he be
taken out of the box and Donavan,
the first baseman, was substituted.
He pitched a good game, and would
have won out if the rain had held
back short time.
Munich proved easy for the Keno
sha batters, and they sent the ball all
over the field.
The car service for the game was a
great improvement over the former
Sunday. The score of the game fol

GUN CLUB MAKES GOOD SCORES

''Bil1' Tanking, the o1d-time Ra-
cine chicken fighter, who has repu-
tation all over Southern Wisconsin for
the fights he has won in the pit, came
to Kenosha on Sunday morning with
the intention of taking home with him
a lot of easy money from the Kenosha
sports, but when he carried his empty
bags back in the evening he had little
to show for his journey. The Kenosha
boys had not expected to pull off a
main, but when Tanking threw down
the defy to them there was nothing
else to do, and in a short time pit
had been set up on the North Side,
and half a hundred sports gathered
round to watch the battles. Tanking
got the first battle, but after that his
fighting cocks failed to make a show
ing. The Kenosha boys won all the
other battles. The fights were con-
tinued until nightfa11, and some great
sport was enjoyed during the day. It
is claimed that several hundred dol
lars changed hands on the different
matches.
