FOUND A NEW GAME
Wilmer UIrieh, Of Salem, Robbed
by the 0rang-outang at
Lincoln Park Chicago
KEEPER RECEIVERS WATCH

||ESsAII Chicago is having good laugh
at present at thesex pense Of Will
SStfcr Jlrich, d farmer residing near
the village Of Salem IN this county,
anflit is ali on account of the fact
that Ulrich' S pocket was picked by an
orang -outang on Sunday.
Ulrich took his two little daughters
to Chicago on Sunday to show them
the town. It was the first time that
the children had ever been in Chicago
and Ulrich decided to make it a day
long to be remembered among the
juvenile members of his household.
After reaching Chicago the panorama
of wonders unfo1ded itself with
pleasing smoothness and the children
were delighted until papa Wilmer
dang1ed his watch in front of the cage
of the orang- outang at Lincoln Park.
Then the trouble began.
The orang-outang was in bad hui
NOR. When Wilmer turned to warn
his little girls to watch closely be-
cause there was going to be some
fun, the orang-outang swallowed the
time piece.
Fun? The crowd in the animal
house went into spasms. Every time
Wilmer made a lurch for the chain
that was dangling from the mouth Of
the zoo comedian the crowd became
more excited. The orang-outang
lodged and became more cool as Will
mer warmed to his work.
Cy De Vry, the head animal keeper,
arrived at the orapg- outang's cage
when the uproar was at it's height. He
went into the cage and. selling the
end of the chain, dragged forth the
gold watch. When he handed it to
Mr.. U1rich the man from Salem ex-
pressed his gratitude.
Right smart monkey" said Mr..
Ulrich. "Blamed things got arms
like windmill. Must have reached
at least ten feet to get that watch.
It may be funny to Chicago folks to
see a monkey committin' thievery,
but I'll tell you right now if I had
that critter up where / come from I'd.
set her to shuckin' corn and turnin'
the cider mill. Come on, fo1kses.''
Mr.. U1rich, followed by the girls,
walked backward to the nearest door
and made his exit. He explained that
the elephants trunk looked suspicious
to- him and he want taken no
chances on how far it could street CHI -

John Hanrath, Of Bristol, Run
Down by Q Milk Train Between
Salem and Bristol Monday
VERY MYSTERIOUS ACCIDENT
Hanrath Had Been Walking Along
the Track When the Accident Oc-
curred-Taken to Tavern at
Salem and May Survive

/
John Hanrath, a farmer residing
on the farm Of James Cavanagh in the
town of Bristol, was terribly injured
Monday night by being struck by a
train on the Rockford division Of the
Chicago & North Western Railway.
Hanrath is now at the Jepson tavern
in tine town Of Salem with his right
arm broken in three places, three
ribs broken. and his entire body
bruised. The physicians attending
him stated this morning that they
thought he would survive the injuries.
The train which struck Hanrath
was the accommodation train leaving
Kenosha just after o'clock. When
the train was mile west Of the Bris-
tol station the engineer noticed a man
walking along the track, and he at
once sounded the warning signal.
Hanrath, who was walking in the
middle Of the track, evidently heard
the whistle, for he turned around and
stood gazing at the onconing train.
When the train was within a few
yards Of him Hanrath jumped off the
track to the side and he was not struck
by the cow catcher of the engine.
A second later, however, he was
pulled under the baggage car, and
when the train was stopped it was
found that he was terribly mangled.
The crew of the train with the aid of
the passengers picked up the injured
man, and placing him in the baggage
car, he was taken to the station at
Salem. He was ::-scious when
picked up, but rsgained consciousness
on the way to the station. ss
At Salem Dr. Tiedt was called to
attend him and ii was found that the
bones of the right arm were broken
in three places and the broken ends
of the bone protruded through the
flesh in several places. It was also
discovered that three ribs had been
broken and It is feared that Ham
rath suffered internal injuries.
Hanrath was still IN a dazed con1f-
ton this morning and was not able TO
throw any light on the manner hi
which he met his serious injury. Th@
injured man is over fifty years Of age
and it is stated that he has not been
getting along we'll with his family.
So serious had this trouble become
that Hanrath had resided in one part
of the house while his wife and other
members of the family resided III The
other.
Hanrath has also suffered from
nervous troubles and short time ago
friends planned to have an examina-
ton into his mental condition but he
put up such hard fight that the mat.
ter was finally dropped tl
AS soon as Hanrath RECEIVERS suffi-
GENTLY to be moved he will be taken
to hospital for treatment.

Narrow Escape in an Automobile
As a result of trainmen in the
employ of the North Western Railway
company making a. flying switch,
Howard e. Harbangh Il foreman at
the Chicago -Kenosha Hosiery COM
pany and three ladies had a narrow
escape from death near the Brass
Works just before noon today. The
crew IN charge Of the switch engine
was switching some cars on the Brass
MiilswitchZ when Harba ugh and his
party came up from the West in an
auto. The car which was being
switched was behind saloon as he
approached the crossing and Har-
baugh could not see his danger. The
car struck the auto and threw it to
one side dragging it for thirty feet.
The machine did not turn over and
the occupants escaped injury.
The auto was badly damaged, the
guards being torn off aud the body
badly wrecked. One of the tires was
also ruined. The accident seems to
have been the result of careless
switching. 1t is high time that the
flying switch was eliminated within
the limits of the city.

Sheriff veitch Notified That Mayor
German Will Satisfy Whit.
aker Judgment in Full
NO TRIAL IN HIGHER COURTS
Famous Damage Suit to Become a Mat
ter of History With the Mayor
Paying Damages and Costs
of the Action


The famous damage suit of Marion
II. Whitaker, secretary of the State
Board of Barber Examiners, against
Mayor James German of this city, is
now matter Of history as Sheriff
Veitch has been notified by the attor-
action Will be taken in the matter,
and that The Judgment against the
mayor granted by the jury in the cir
cult court will be paid in full.
The Judgment and execution were
placed in the hands of the sheriff
several weeks ago with the admoni-
ton that he either Immediately col
lect the Judgment or seize the body
Of the mayor. The sheriff announced
to the attorneys for Whitaker that he
had sixty days in which to collect the
Judgment and he would take the full
limit. The time for the payment of
the judgment will expire the latter
part Of next week and the money will
be forthcoming. It has not as yet
been paid over but the sheriff has
been given surety and he will make
the return at any time that he finds
convenient.
The total cost to the mayor will be
in the neighborhood of $185 and it
seemed from the appearance of
Whitaker after the contest in the Office
of the mayor that the latter got value
received. The Judgment returned by
the jury was but $50, but there were
heavy costs in the case and this
brought it up to nearly 5000.
For some time the Mayor has con-
sidered the advisab ility of carrying
the suit to the supreme court but the
cost of such an action even if he
should win in the higher court would
be so great that it would be an easier
and cheaper means of settling the
suit by paying the small arno unit of
damages allowed by the jury.
OF course it would have be en- posi-
bic for the attorneys for Whitaker to
have demanded a review of the case
by the supreme court but these at
torneys have signified their intention
Of accepting the amount givensby the
jury and this will probably close the
case.
There is some doubt as to whether
this will be the end of the contest be-
tween the mayor and the state board.
The mayor has not as yet secured a
license but he has made an applica-
ton for one and it is probable that it
will be issued as soon as the mayor
sees fit to go to Milwaukee and take
the formal examination. In the
meantime there is little reason to be-
lieve that the officers of the state
board will start any new criminal
actions against Mr.. German as it has
been conclusively shown that it would
be almost impossible to convict the
mayor before Kenosha jury and the
officers of the state board can i'll afford
to throw away their money in useless
efforts to convict.

SEEK TRUE MEASURE
County Board is Urged to Pur-
chase a Standard Weight for
Testing in This County
SCHOOL TAX SHOWS NCREASE


The matter of a just balance and a
true weight for all dealers in Keno
sha county has been brought before
the county board with a request that
the board take steps to secure the
purchase of a standard weight and
measure for testing the scales and
weights now in use among the mer-
chants and market keepers of the
county. No specific charges of short
weights or false measures have been
made, but it is suggested that such a
thing would be a splendid safeguard
against the working of any possible
dishonest dealers,
At the meeting of the board on
Tuesday afternoon a letter was pre-
sented from the state sealer, showing
that the cost of a standard such as
would be needed in the county would
be in the neighborhood of $500. It
would be the duty of the county treas
urer to make the tests of the different
scales and measures.
The board looked upon the PROPOSE
ton with some favor, and a special
committee, consisting of Commission
ers Burg, Fleming and Jordan was
appointed to look into the matter and
report to the board later
The board is giving much of its
time today to reports of the various
county officers and to referring bills
to their respective committees.
The report of the county agent was
presented this morning, and showed
that during the year the expenses of
this official had been $2,364.89. The
report showed that Agent Hensgen
had done much to eliminate the
number of paupers dependent on the
county and the total amount spent for
the support of this class in the twelve
months amounted to but $3.50
The board has accepted an invita-
ton to be the guests of the Racine
board on Friday and the animal visit
to the Racine hospital for the insane
will be made at that time.
The most important matter taken
up at the Tuesday afternoon session
was the levying of the school tax for
the coming year. The amount shows
a slight increase over the amount
levied last years The amount for the
different towns and the city as COM
pared with the amounts levied last
years ara fo110wS.

POLICY HOLDERS IN CONTROL
Kenosha Delegates Make Good Report
of Supreme Convention of Yeomen


George B. McCarron, Sydney Jones
and Fl. c. Schulz, who went to Aurora,
ILL.,, on Monday to represent the local
council of the Yeomen Of America at
the Supreme convention of the order,
returned home Tuesday evening, and
they report that the management of
the order is completely in the hands
of the policy holders. The PROPOSE
tons of the officers to control the body
were repeatedly overru1ed, ard it is
thought that the policy holders will
dictate the election of officers, which
will take place today, and it is posi-
bic that many of the old official gang
will be retired.
The reports, which were presented
to the convention Tuesday, showed
that the order is gaining prestige,
and it is thought that in short time
all Of the former members will be
Lack under the Yeomen banner. H. c..
Schulz, of this city, will probably be
elected an officer of the Supreme
Council.
