LEAN COMING SEPT. /

Delbert ]. Lean, who so delighted
our people with his character imper-
sonations two years ago, has since
been studying and travelling in the
East. He has recently given "Caleb
West, Master Driver" by F. Hopkin-
son Smith, in several eastern cities,
receiving ovations everywhere. Of
its presentation in Chickering Hall,
Boston, Mass, the Emerson College
Magazine says: "The ten characters
inpersonated were distinct, and many
of them were shaded to a fine point. =
The parts where comedy and tragic
incident went hand in hand, gave
great scope for the readers powers.
He kept his audience continually on
the tenderhooks of despair, continu-
ally on the verge of merriment. The
Southwick Literary is to be conqratu-
lated on presenting such a reader,
Mr.. Lean will give this entertain
ment at Park Avenue M. e. church
on Friday evening, Sept. 1st. Tick
cts are now on sale by canvassers and
at Ames' clothing store. Only 800

Kehosha Team Defeats Illinois
Champions by Score Of q to
I Sunday Afternoon
WIN OUT in SEVENTH INNING
Kenosha Batters Take Kindly to
the American Association Twirler
While Groth Keeps Elgin Play
ers Guessing All the Time

The Kenosha team defeated the
Elgin team, the semi-professiona1
champions of Illinois, at Breen's park
on Sunday afternoon by score of 4
to 1. It was the hardest contested
game of the year in Kenosha and the
score tells only part Of the story Of
the bitter struggle made by the E1gin
men to win the game.
The luck of the game was with
E1gin and Umpire Tanning had an off
day on balls and strikes and it looked
for time as if there would be anoth-
er thirteen inning battle between the
two teams. But in the old s1ucky
seventh" the Kenosha boys came to
their own and when the smoke and
fire of the fusi1ade had cleared away
the Kenosha boys had sent three men
across the rubber and had the game
in hand. It was one of those games
that started the fans to shouting and
kept them Shouting till the last man
laid dow his bat in the ninth inning.
The E1gin team had expected hard
game and Heager, an American asso-
citation pitcher, had been imported to
do the pitching.
Heager might have been a good
pitcher but the Kenosha batters found
him for seven hits and three of them
were in one inning. Groth, handi-
capped by the fact that his finger
had been split in the game with the
Marquettes week ago, pitched the
game of his life and held the Elgin
bunch to four hits and struck out nine
men. Groth always came up to the
mark when he was needed and with
guilt edge support he wou1dIhave shut
out the visitors. But in the! fifth he
allowed couple of bases on balls and
two scratch hits, bothIof which should
have been ie1ded, allowed the visitors
their only run. Even in sthis inning
Groth pitched himself out ofRa bad
hole as there were three men on
bases and no man out and only one
run resulted
Kenosha took its first run in the
third when an error by AntoineIallow-
ed Groth to get to first. Hegpromptly
stole second and came home on hit
by Laabs. 1t was in the seventh in
ming that the Kenosha boys put the
finishing touches on1the Elgin team.
Mauch, the first man up raped the
bali out for two bases and Roltz who
followed him sacrificed. TheIE1gin
players took the fe1ders choice bu,
failed to catch Mauch at third and
both men got base. Then Smith
came to the rescue with1a hit to deep
right and both men scored. This did
not end the trouble for Groth sent
out a hot one which scored Smith.
The next two men went out and the
agony was over. E1gin made frantic
efforts to win out in stheEeighth and
ninth but the best the visitors could
do was to get man on third aud he
died there.
The largest crowd Of the season
witnessed the game. The score fol.

the council, demanding the sum of
S150. Meyers, in his claim, alleges
that the water in a sewer backed up
into his cellar and wrecked it. He
claims the loss of large amount of
provisions. 1t is understood that he
plans to institute suit against the
city If his claim is not paid. The
matter was referred to the committee
on claims for investigation.

street, but the commission will not be
organized until the people interested
deposit with the city the sum of $50
to insure the payment Of the commits
s1oners. The fight for the opening of
the street has been before the council

the council.
The meeting Monday night was the
longest IN the history of the city, it

Father H. ]. Roche Of st. James
Church Roughly Handled by
William Donaldson
CAME TO HEAR CONFESSION
Man Suddenly Turns on the Priest
Who is Saved From Serious Injury
by Turnkey Leinenweber-Nigh
of Terror at the Jail

The Rev. Henry j. Roche, the well
beloved pastor Of St. James Roman
Catholic church, had rough encoun-
ter with man in the county jail Sun.
day night but fortunately Turnkey
Leinenweber was close at hand and
managed to protect the priest from
serious injury.
The man was William A. Donaldson
Of Saginaw, Mich, a travelling sales
man for the Cunning company in Chi
cago and he was suffering from the
effects of debauch when the assault
on the priest took place.
Donaldson had been taken to the
jail on Sunday evening suffering from
what seemed to be some mental
disease, and City Physician Eastma n
was called to attend him. He seemed
to be resting pretty easy on Sunday
but late IN the evening he was seized
with another attack OF the disease and
as, he thought that he was going to
die he asked that priest be called to
che jail to give him final confession.
Father Roche answered the cali in
person aud going to the jail he went
into the cell with the insane man and
was giving him confession when Dom
aldson, without any warning, 1eaped
out of the chair and made for the
priest.
He buried his fngernails in Father
Roche's arm, badly bruisiug it. The
man was violent in his rawlings and
might have killed the priest had it
not been that Leinenweber went to the
rescue. With a well directed blow
the turnkey knocked Donaldson down
and in the meantime the priest left
the jail. His injuries were in no way
serious and will not interfere with
his work at st. James church.
The turnkey had a night of terror
in the jail as for more than two hours
he was left alone with Donaldson.
The latter was raving and his shouts
attracted great crowds of people to
the jail but none of them dared go to
the aid of the official until Nick Carr
came along and hearing the trouble
he went in and aiGed Leinenweber in
forcing the man into bed. Later DIR.
Eastman arrived and Donaldson was
put under strong opiate which sent
him to sleep for the night. 9 This
morning he was more quiet but he is
suffering from extreme Eexhaustion
and it may be several days before he
can be turned out of the jail. Turn
key Leinenweber will not attempt to
handle him alone this evening and if
possible he will be removed to hos
pital tomorrow morning.
Donaldson appears to be man Of
the better classes and is evidently
well educated. He is a painter by
trade and was formerly employed by
the Cunning company as a travelling
man. AS soon as he RECEIVERS he will
return to Chicago.

r. H. MOTH RESIGNS
City Enginee. Moth Forced by III
Health to Give Up His
Work at City Hall
GETS THREE MONTHS LEAVE

City Engineer Robert H. Moth, who
has been connected with the city in
this capacity for the past six years,
late Monday afternoon filed with the
city clerk his resignation. The resig-
nation was not accepted by the coun-
Gil Monday night, but he was given
three months leave of absence and
at the end of that time it is thought
that he will again resume his posi-
ton at the head of the construction
department Of the city.
Mr.. Moth is now confined to his
home on Prairie avenue, and his ply
sicians have notified him that it will
be necessary for him to take a long
rest if he desires to continue at work.
Several weeks ago Mr.. Moth received
a severe shock by touching the Main
street bridge when it was charged
with electricity, and it is thought
that this accident is in a measure re-
sponsible for his present condition.
For some time Mr.. Moth has felt
that he was not III condition to look
and this conviction was reported to
the committees of the council. How
ever, he has been urged to remain in
Office, and while his resignation was
an unconditional one it is understood
that he will be able to accept the
leave of absence, and at the end 81
the three months if his health is suffi-
GENTLY improved, he will again re-
turn to his work. In the meantime
the city council has appointed COM
mittee which will have power to en-
p1oy some one to look after the work
of Mr.. Moth.
Engineer Moth has had entire
charge of the construction of the new
system of sewers in Kenosha, and for
this season his advice at this time
will be sadly missed by the city. The
work, however, is well under way,
and the new man should be able to
handle it without serious danger to
the interests of-the city.

FILES A NEW CHARGE
New Complaint is Made Against
Mrs. Regh When Case is
Called for Hearing
INKS. DAVIS TELLS HER STORY

At the time of the preliminary
hearing of the case of the State VS..
Mrs. Anna Regh, held at the office of
Justice McCarron on Monday after
noon, the State filed new charge
against Mrs. Regh. The new charge
is that of mans1aughter. The new
complaint is made by DR.. George T.
Kimball, and on this charge Mrs.
Regh was arrested on Monday after
noon. She did not plead to the new
charge and the hearing on the former
charge was uncomp1eted. Both were
laid over for week, and Mrs. Regh
gave bond for $1,000 to insure her
presence in court at that time. No
action has been taken to secure the
arrest of Mrs. Davis, but it is claimed
that the damaging evidence given by
her would lay her liable to prosecu-
ton.
When the case was called in Justice
McCarron's court Monday afternoon
curious crowd had gathered anxious
to>hear the evidence which was to be
laid before the court. Mrs. Lillian
| Davis, the woman Oh whose behalf
the charge was brought by DR.. Kim
ball, was the principal witness for the
state, and she remained on the stand
for some time. With eyes downcast,
seldom looking at the court or the at
torneys, Mrs. Davis told the story of
her visit to the home of Mrs. Regh
and the criminal operation performed.
The evidence was of a most sensa-
tional nature. The woman told the
entire story, from the beginning to
the end, and at the close of the mar
rative the defense did not put in any
evidence, but left the matter open for
another week. It is not known what
defense will be alleged in the case.
The filing of the new charge
against Mrs. Regh makes an indict-
ment with two counts. On the more
serious charge of mans1aughter the
midwife could be sentenced to the
states prison or given a heavy fine
and jail sentence, while on the minor
charge of committing criminal OPP
Grafton she could be heavily fined.
Mrs. Regh was in court Monday
afternoon and closely watched every
turn in the evidence against her, as
given by Mrs. Davis. The main wit
ness for the state is still at the Keno
sha hospital, but she has so far re-
covered her health as to be able to
appear in court. Mrs. Davis was for
merly employed at the plant of the
Simmons Manufacturing company.
