tenderness around the heart, an oppressive
feeling in the chest, choking sensation in the
throat, discomfort from sleeping on the left
side and smofhenng spells at night when the
sufferer has to sit up in bed to breathe are
the most common symptoms OF a weak heart

do not understand their meaning should be

There was not better railroad tele-
graph operator on the line of the w.
and w. road than Tim Mulligan, but
for all that he was out of job half
the time. Tim had begun his career in
Chicago as a messenger boy and had
worked up from one place to another
until he reached the top, but there had
bsen many intervals. The trouble with
him was that he was no hero worship
er. He refused to believe that master
mechanics, superintendent, general
managers and railroad presidents were
better than other men, and the en-
ployee who holds to that belief cannot
hold his job at the same time.
Not that Tim went out of his way to
be impudent or lacking in respect, but

PAYS ALL
Albert CrandaI| and Mrs. Anna
Potts are Fined a Hundred
Dollars and Costs
HUSBAND PLEADS FOR WIFE

The final act in the story of Mrs..
Anna Potts and Albert CrandalI was
enacted in the county court late Tues
day afternoon when Crandall and
Mrs. Potts appeared before Judge
Slosson and entered plea of guilty
to. a serious statutary charge.
Judge S1osson was impartial III his
punishment and sentenced both the
man and the woman to pay fine and
the costs of the action. Crandall
shonldered the blame in both cases
and insisted on paying his fine and
It cost him just $3.50.
a The scene in court was most un-
usual one. Mrs. Potts, who is little
more than child, was accompanied
by her husband, Ernest v. Potts, of
Rockford. After Potts had made the
complaint on which Cranda1l and his
wife were arrested, he did all in his
power to have the case dropped, but
when the district attorney insisted on
the two being arraigned on the same
charge he put up bond for her APP
Ipearance in court, going SO far as to
put up a receipt for money paid for
the purchase of piano.
m The case was scheduled to come up
on Monday morning and Potts and
his wifi came over from Rockford for
the b ing, waiting about the court
unit tuesday afternoon.
len Mrs. Potts was called to
plead to the charge the wronged hus-
band appeared in court and pleaded
with the court to be lenient with her
and assuring the court that he was
partially to blame in the matter.
Under the circumstances the court
gave Crandall and Mrs. Potts lec-
tufe and imposed the lowest fine.
Crandall at once paid up. Mr.. and
Mrs. Potts 1eft1ast night for Rockford
and they have patched up their
differences.

Peter Powell Bombards a House
Near the State Line and Gets
a FusiIade of Bullets
ONE BULLET TAKES EFFECT
Powell Had Gone to the Home of VIII
liam Scho1le Near the State
Line and Had Broken
Doors and Windows

Peter Powell has been arrested and
placed in jail at Zion City on charge
of malicious mischief. Powell on
Monday night and early Tuesday
morning bombarded the home of Will
liam Scho1le, we'll known farmer re-
siding on the Sheridan road, near the
Wisconsin state line, and after he had
been subjected to revolver fire he re-
tired in bad order and was later ar
rested and lodged in jail. It seems
that Powell, who lives west of Zion
City, had grudge against Schol1e,
and that this is the fourth time that
he has attacked the house. Whenever
Powell gets well soaked with whiskey
he leaves for the Scho1le house and
proceeds to attempt to cause trouble.
Powell advanced on the Scho1le
house shortly after 9 o'clock Monday
evening, and at once started fusi1ade
of bricks and stones. The windows
in the front part of the house we're
smashed, and then the enthusiasm of
Powell still being undated, he went
to the door of the house and began
beating on it with a club. Members
of the Schol1e family narrowly es-
capped serious injury during the bonn
bardment. The members of the
Scholle family were mustered to-
gether and an effort was made to in
duce Powell to leave the premises,
but he continued his attack on the
house until finally Schol1e went into
the house and got thirty-eight
ca1ibre revolver and opened FIRE.
Schol1e claims he fired in the air, but
the wounds carried by Powell seem to
show that he was several times in the
range of the bullets. One of them en-
tered the fatty portion of Powell's leg
and the other two passed through his
clothing. When Scho1le began shoot
ing Powell started to run and three
shots we're fired in rapid succession.
1t is claimed that two of the shots
passed through the feeingssman' S
clothing, while the other took effect
IN the leg.
Powell fed over the state line into
Wisconsin, but he soon gave up wher
the chief of police from Zion City
came after him. He was 1ured back
into Illinois and taken to Zion City,
given preliminary hearing and held
to the grand jury under bonds OF
81, 900.
Neither Powell nor Scho1le are mem
bers Of the Christian Catholic church
in Zion.

CHARLES WALDO INJURED
Well known Farmer of Pleasant
Prairie, Falls From an Apple Tree


Well Known Farmer of Pleasant
Prairie, Falls From an Apple Tree
Charles Waldo, one of the best
known of the farmers of the county
was seriously injured at his home in
Pleasant Prairie, late Saturday after
noon when he fell thirty feet from an
apple tree and sustained the fracture
of one of his ribs and many severe
bruises. Mr.. Waldo had climbed to
the top of the tree to pick apples and
without warning one of the limbs
broke and he was thrown thirty feet
to the ground below. In falling his
side struck against box which had
been left under the tree and this re-
suited in the fracture of the rib.
However the box broke the fall and
probably saved him from even more
severe injuries.
Mr.. Waldo was able to walk to the
house and DR.. Stevens was at once
called to attend him. He is now ID
bed and will probably be laid up for
several weeks as result of the ac-
cident.

THREATEN TO SHOOT
Farmers Claim They Will Take Shot
at Apple Thieves

Farmers Claim They Will Take Shot
at Apple Thieves
Farmers residing in the towns of
Somers and Pleasant Prairie, near
the city limits, are up in arms over
the fact that their apples are being
stolen. It is claimed that on Sunday
people.drove out from Kenosha into
orchards near the city and proceeded
to steal bushe1 after bushe1 of apples,
and when the owner of the orchards
protested against this wholesale theft
they were met with threats of assault.
The farmers are now planning to get
out their old rusty shot-guns and load
them up with good charge of barrel
salt and pepper, and open fire on
sight.
For several years the farmers have
been bothered by the apple thieves,
and it seems that these people have
no idea of the property rights of the
farmers. A few arrests and prosecu-
tons might help do away with this
sort of crime.

CANNOT WE'D DIVORCES
Lutheran Pastors viii Draw the Line
Only Allow Two Exceptions

iii Unly Allow Two Exceptions
Kenosha delegates to the thirtieth
annual meeting Of the Evangelical
Lutheran church in North America,
which just closed its sessions in Mil
Waukee, have returned home. They
claim It was the largest gathering in
the history of the church.
One Of the important matters that
came up was the presentation and
adoption of a resolution pertaining to
divorce. The resolution is in effect
that the general council denies its
pastors the authority to marry any
person who has husband or wife 1iv-
ing unless such person shall have
been divorced by due process of law
from said husband or wife, on a plea
OF adultery or willful desertion, and
that in that case they only consent to
marry the innocent party to such di-
vorce, and then not until the expira-
ton Of year after the divorce shall
have been granted.
Inc resolution was passed without
discussion. Hereafter couples COM
ing here from Chicago and other cities
to get married, after having only been
divorced few days, will no doubt
keep away from ministers of this de-
nomination, for it is proposed to fol-
low the resolution to the letter.
During the course of the convention
many Of the ministers prophesied in
thenear future national religious
war, between Romanism and Protes-
tanism, and the charges are said to
have been startling. Other denomi-
nations are accused Of drifting away
from the true christianity.
