ADMITTED TO BAIL
N. J. Schumacher, Charged With
Murder Of John Wren, is Re-
leased by Judge BeIden
BOND IS FIXED AT $4,000.

! Nicholas J. Schumacher, the de-
fendant in the Trevor murder case,
was admitted to bail by Judge Be1den
in the circuit court at Racine late
Tuesday afternoon and is now at his
home in the village of Trevor. After
Schumacher waived his preliminary
examination in the justice court of
Justice Sturges Tuesday morning
Justice Sturges declined to assume
the responsibility of accepting bail
on such a serious charge, and it was
decided to take the case before Judge
Be1den ard District Attorney Baker,
Attorney Calvin Stewart, Deputy
Sheriff John MUTT and Schumacher
took the afternoon train for Racine,
Schumacher was brought before
Judge Be1den and his bail was fixed
at $4,000 which was Immediately furn-
ished. John Bohrn, Christian Haus-
ner and John MUTT all of Salem, are
the sureties on the bond. The dis
trict attorney consented to admit
Schumacher to bail as the charge
againt, him will probably be changed
from murder to manslaughter before
his case comes to trial at the March
term of court. The investigation into
the circumstances surrounding the
killing which has been carried on by
the district attorney for the past few
weeks has disclosed no motive for
the killing of Wren and it appears
that the whole affair was simply the
unfortunate result of common
drunken row.
Unless some new evidence develops
before the case comes to trial Schu.
mac cher will, in all prof ability, be tried
on charge OF mans1aughter in the
fourth degree. The penalty for this
offense is two years in the peniten.
tiary or fine not to exceed ST. 900 and
costs, or both. It is possible that
some trials for perjury may follow the
settlement of the case against Schu.
ma cher as the district attorney may
not be disposed to overlook some OF
the tall swearing done at the investi-
cations by some Of the suspects.

Regular Train Standing on the
Track at the Depot and
Special crashes Into it.
TWO MEN SLIGHTLY INJURED
Accident Happens at Eleven O'Clock
Tuesday Night and Six Cars are
Wrecked Beyond Repair
Some Loss by Fire.

At ten minutes past eleven O'Clock
Tuesday night two freight trains on
the Chicago and North Western road
came together at the depot with a
crash that could be heard for blocks.
The south bound pickup freight was
depot and had been there for nearly
Ia half hour when an extra freight
came down from the north on the
same track. Before the danger was
discovered it was too late to stop the
moving train and it crashed into the
caboose of the standing train with
terrific force. The engine of the
special crashed through several cars
and threw the wreckage for many
rods. The engineer and fireman re
manned at their posts and luckily
were not hurt in the least. Four
empty cars, one loaded car and the
caboose were demolished. The loaded
car contained a Case threshing ma
chine which now is scarcely recognize
able as such.
tracks was torn down for several
hundred feet and the roof of the train
shed on the west of the tracks is caved
in for many feet.
Two of the brakemen, Collins and
White of Milwaukee, were thrown to
the ground and slightly injured,
bruises and scratches being the ex-
tent of the injuries. They were able
to pick themselves up and go about
the business of clearing the wreckage.
Immediately after the wreck fire
started among the wreckage and the
fire department was called out to keep
the blaze under control. Before they
could get control, the caboose, one
gondola and one fiat car were in
flames and could not be saved. The
North Western officials requested this
paper to state that they thoroughly
appreciate the prompt and efficient
work done by the local department
and consider themselves lucky that
the wreck occurred where the local
department was accessible. The
track was not cleared until about four
O'Clock this morning, but traffic was
not delayed by the wreck as there was
passage in the yards here. The
11:40 O'Clock passenger north bound
arrived here on time and was able tc
pass but was held here for consider
able length of time as another wreck
had occurred at Ives north of Racine
where there was no switch on which
the regular could pass.
The officials of the company deem
themselves particularly fortunate that
in wreck of such proportions there
was no loss of life nor serious injury
and say that the loss in all probability
will not reach over six thousand
dollars.

TALKED CHAUTA UQUA
Tickets to the Number Of Twelve
Hundred Must be Sold to
Secure the Chautauqua
JACOBS ISLAND THE PLACE
IF Successful, Promoter Hall Will Take
His Pay on Commission, Otherwise
His Services Will be rendered
Free for the Cause.

On Tuesday night at the Z. M. G. "A.
building about twenty Of the repre-
sentative business men of Kenosha
met Promoter Hall, of Bloomington,
ILL.,, to discuss the proposed Chautau-
qua meeting for next summer, to be
held at Jacobs Island.
The plan as proposed is to have a
Chautauqua meeting on Jacobs Is
land for ten days during the month of
July next summer. Promoter Hall
has for some years past been engaged
in this line of work. He undertakes
the work on commission basis, and
in the event of the failure of the s.
ISOLATION does not charge anything
for his services.
The meeting was presided over by
S. c. Newman, of the Balm Wagon
company, and the propositions of Hall
were enthusiastically received. 1t
appears that an option has been Sc
cured on the island for the period
required, and the promoter guarantees
the best of entertainments for the
meetings. There are to be seven
hours of program every day for ten
days, and the meetings are to be held
in large tent erected for that pur-
pose. Tickets will be $50 for the
entire ten days, which entities the
holder to admission to the grounds
every day, and to all entertainments.
Individual admission for one attend
ance at the meetings will be twenty
five cents.
Tents will be on hand for rent for
the entire period, if the people care
to stay there all the time, and meals
will be arranged for so that those
camping on the grounds can get their
meals at a reasonable cost. The only
difficulty at present seems to be in re-
gard to the transportation, and the
leaders feel confident that this diff
Guilty can be overcome.
The men who were at the meeting
Tuesday night are today canvassing
the town in the interests of the pro-
ject, seeing how many tickets can be
guaranteed. If 1000 can be guar
anteed Hall says that he will promise
that the scheme will go through, and
the men will then form an association
and elect officers to carry the scheme
through to completion.
Kenosha seems to have a chance
here to get the best of 1ecturess at a
very small cost, and many other forms
of entertainment. The people should
jump at the chance of having camp
ing opportunity given to them at such
a reasonable cost, including such a
varied and interesting program. If
the project goes through they will be
given ten-days' outing on Jacobs
Island, with tents and meals provided,
and seven hours day entertain
ment.
Such schemes have been great sue
cesses in this part of the country in
recent years, the Monona Assembly at
Madison having yearly attendance
Of something over 5000 people, and
the Racine Chautauqua reaching
nearly that number.

Burlington.

The Old Folks party given at the
opera house Friday night was great
success. Owing to the severe weather
there were many not brave enough to
attend, but those who did had a g1or-
ious time, contrary to the custom at
most such gatherings. The so-ca11ed
old people did not sit around and visit
they had come to dance-and dance
they did, with so much life and en-
thusiasm that it was good to be an on
locker. They danced the money
musk, Irish trot, I" in which a prom
inent Vienna gentleman distinguished
himse1f), the Fireman's dance and
others, including many quadri11es, in
which ''balance on the corner was
the principal feature. Altogether a
most enjoyable time was had by all
present, and it is hoped that it will
be followed by others. Many people,
encouraged by the large attendance,
say they will not be counted out at
the next. About twenty from Racine
and Union Grove were present.

AFTER DREDGING TRUST.
Government Dredge to be Sent to do
Work on Lake Michigan.

The river and harbor bill, which
was reported to the house late Tues
day evening contains provision
authorizing and directing the secre-
tary OF war to remove to Lake Michi-
gan the large dredge that is now be-
ing built for the war department on
the Atlantic coast. The dredge will
be used in improving and repairing
the channels in the harbors of Chica-
go, Milwaukee and other Lake
Michigan ports.
The provision has been fought bit
terly by dredgers Of Chicago and 9TH
er cities, who have claimed that it
will ruin their business, but the war
department and river and harbor COM
mlttee apparently believe that the
prices for work done by lake dredgers
are exorbitant and that the placing
of a government dredge OH Lake
Michigan will result in wholesome
competition, which will lower charges.

DOMINICK UNI'I FINED
italian Dealer Pleads Guilty to
the Charge Of Selling Cigar
cites to Minors.
OTHER CASES WILL FOLLOW.

Principal Chas. Woodstock of the
Durkee school won the first round of
his fight to prevent the sale of cigar
cites to school children this morning
when Dominick Unit, an Italian CON
fectioner and fruit dealer, pleaded
guilty to the charge of selling cigar
cites to minors before Justice McCar-
ron. Unit was arrested yesterday on
a warrant sworn out by Principal
Woodstock and it was announced yes
terday that he would fight the case in
court. Unit had evidently taken
second thought when he appeared for
trial this morning, as he pleaded
guilty and paid a fine of FIVE dollars
and the costs of the action, the maxi
mum fine for first offense under the
sta e law. Unit pleaded ignorance
the law IN the case and promised that
he would cease the practice of selling
to children. Principal Woodstock is
being given every encouragement in
his fight against the cigarette evil in
the school and it is limited that this is
only the beginning of an energetic
campaign against all the dealers in
the city against whom evidence can
be collected. Mr.. Woodstock is said
ito have evidence against others be-
sides Unit and. he is prepared to take
out warrants for their arrest. He will
undoubtedly be given all the financial
and moral support that he needs to
carry on this work
