Fhe Missing Treasurer of the
Danish Brotherhood of Amer
lea Finally Located


Christian SEskildsen, of Chicago,
who recently defaulted with $40, 900
belonging to the Danish Brotherhood
of America, of which he was treas
urer, is declared by his wife to be
confined under an assumed name in a
sanitarium less than 100 miles from
Chicago. She refused to give the
name of the sanitarium, declaring
she will make good his shortage.
Thursday she transferred personal
property which she owned in Illinois
and in southern Florida to the value
of $1,000 to the attorney for the
brotherhood. She had previously
given her note for us, 200, and says
she will recover about So, 500 Of the
money deposited in the Stensland
bank. This, she asserts, will leave
total shortage of only $4,000, which
will easily be made good before the
expiration of the ninety days which
is allowed by law. Mrs. Eskildsen
says she has received the following
letter from her husband:
'Dear Mama: Forgive me for not
contding in you, but could not. /
have turned over everything to my
nephew, giving him power Of attorney
and instructed him to look after you.
Use all my property, if necessary, to
make good my shortage, which will
soon be discovered. If there is not
enough, know you will sell some of
your holdings and furnish the rest. /
am nervous wreck and am in sani-
tarium here. Forgive me for what /
have done. May God keep you and
watch over you. Devoted1y,

TO BAKE ALTAR BREAD
Industry at Fem De Hall Will Mean
RevennS 1or Sisters

Industry at ZEN pc Hall Will Mean
ReyennS 4or Sisters
An interesting avenue Of industry
has been opened at Kemper hall,
where in future altar breads will be
manufactured. Bishop Webb, in his
notes in the current number Of the
Church Times, speaks thus of the in
novation:
Hereafter the sisters at Kemper
hall will be glad to furnish the rever-
end clergy with breads for the cele-
bration of the Holy Communion, large
and small, and the latter either round
or prepared in square sheets. AS the
income derived from the sale of the
altar breads will go to aid the
sisters IN their children's work in
Chicago and at the summer home we
would especially draw the attention
of the clergy to this work, newly un-
dertaken.
"A new organ has been placed in
the chapel at cost of $4,000 and is
giving perfect satisfaction. 1t was
also found necessary to make very ex-
tensive improvements in the heating
plant. The school was never in bet
ter condition and has opened with a
large number of pupils, some of them
coming from great distance, even
from Central America. -

MANY BOATS LAID UP
Sixteen Yachts Sent to Kenosha to he
Laid up for the Winter at Club House

kenosha's winter fleet is now com
plete and sixteen yachts from Chi
cago and Milwaukee have been laid
up at the Morgan club house yards
for the winter. The yachts will re-
main in Kenosha until early in May.
The most famous of the racing yachts
laid up here for the winter is the
Mendoza one of the Upton cup yachts.
The number of little craft sent to
Kenosha for the winter is larger this
year than ever before.
In this connection it is stated that
there is not space enough at the
Morgan yards to provide room for all
the boats which would lay up here
and it is possible that before another
year passes other members of the
Chicago Yacht club will buy land
near the Kenosha harbor to be used
as a place for storing the boats dur
ing the winter months.

BENT ON SUICIDE
George Mok Is Saved From TAX
ing His Life by Quick Action
Of a Police Officer
NEWHOUSE AS A LIFE SAVER

Assistant Chief of Police Joseph
Newhouse appeared in the role Of a
life saver on Wednesday afternoon,
when he stopped man from commit
ting suicide ia a Polish saloon on Mil
waukee avenue. The man was George
Mok and it is said that he resides Just
northwest of the city. Mok had gene
into the saloon and had bottle con-
tanning quantity of be1ladoutla and
some sort of white powder. The
man had strolled into the saloon aud
went up to the bar and demanded
portion of whisky. He poured out an
abnormally large drink, aud taking
the bottle and the powder he began TO
mix the liquid and the powder to-
gether. About this time the proprie-
tor Of the saloon became frightened
and summoned Newhouse, VINO was
walking along Milwaukee avenue.
Newhopse went into the saloon and
took the bottle aud the powder away
from Mok. He took it into a neigh
boring drug store and the druggist
declared that the mixture would be
sufficient to kill four men.
Mok at first insisted that he was
suffering from the toothache, but
later admitted to Newhouse that he
had lot of family troubles and had
decided to put an end to them. The
officer gave Mok good lecture and
later allowed him to go to his home.
It is not thought that the man will
make any further attempts to secure
poison. The poison was purchased at
a south side drug store.

George Howard Arrested in Mil
waukee for counterfeiting
Often Worked Kenosha
PASSED MUCH BOGUS MONEY
Howard Worked in Milwaukee and
Made Side Trips to Racine Kenosha
and Chicago to Get Rid of
Finished Product

George Howard. a counterfeiter,
who has worked repeatedly IN Keno
sha, was arrested Thursday morning
at the New Hampshire flats, Sixth
and Grand avenue ia Milwaukee.
His whole outfit of tools, with large
number of spurious half dollars,
were taken into custody with him.
At the police headquarters he adj
mitted that he was arrested three
years ago at Chicago for counterfeit
ing and was sentenced to two years
imprisonme at Joliet.
Howard came originally from Ohio.
He appears to be well dressed work
ing man 43 years old, Slightly gray
and stoop-shouldered, and wearing a
reddish gray mustache. He told per
seas who inquired during three
months past that he was carpenter.
"Counterfeiting was so easy" he
explained at the police station, 81
did not like to work after learned
how to do it. I,made so cent pieces
entirely because they pass without
difficulty | have passed probably
5000 Of them in Chicago"
Howard thought that milwaukee,
was good place in which to conduct
his operations. He obtained room
in the New Hampshire flats where he
worked with his dies, metallic com.
position and electric battery now and
then. large part of the time he
did nothing.
Occasionally he would go away to
Racine, Kenosha and Chicago. His
apparentsindolence and af1uence at
tracted attention.
Now and then he would enter GER
tain west side places to exchange
coins for bills. He also did this al
Racine and Kenosha. He made
nothing but SO cent pieces, and these
were a good imitation. They were
silver plated, and had the appearance
of half dollar that was somewhat
worn. A careful examination of the
isurface would show that they were Of
a lighter weight and coarser compost
tion than genuine silver half dollar
One Of the dates used on his dies was
$780,
Howard came to Milwaukee or
August II and he has been coming
money during the whole time, it i,
supposed. Detectives Malchewsk
and Pergandy watched him for severa
weeks before making any move
Thursday it was thought that suffi
Gent information had been obtained
to warrant an arrest. When he was
taken satchel containing his outfits
and quantity Of spurious coins was
found in the room.
He will be brought before United
States Court Commissioner Bloodgood
for preliminary hearing.

TO NAME DEPUTIES
Newly Elected County Officers
Want Assistants To Make
Some Changes
SOME TO BE REAPpOlNTED

The principal topic now discussed
by politicians and others is the ap.
pointment of deputies by men who
were Tuesday elected to office. There
are but three county Offices where
deputies are to be appointed by the
new officials when they enter on the
duties of their Office next January.
The appointment of undersheriff,
turnkey and deputies by Sheriff-elect
Chas, Pfennig will be awaited with
great interest. Probably Mr.. Pfennig
has not decided whom he will appoint
as assistants and if he has he.is keep
ing the matter dark. Many names
have been suggested, among others J..
H. Karnes, but Mr.. Pfennig has an
nounced that any story connecting
Mr.. Karnes with the office is without
foundation. Doubtless two or three
of the deputies appointed by Sheriff
Veitch will be retained in Office by his
successor, but there will be a big fall
ing of stars when the new sheriff goes
in and the men to be named will be
men for service and not for show.
Frank Waldo, who was elected clerk
of the circuit court, is to appoint a
deputy and there is every reason to
believe that Mr.. Waldo will appoint
Miss Gafney, the present deputy, who
is most competent young lady, and
her appointment would meet with
the heartiest approval by those hav-
ing business IN that office.
e. g. Torrey, elected register of
deeds, will no doubt appoint two dep
uties, as the work in that Office is con
stantly increasing. Whether Torrey
intends making any changes in the
present force in the register office is
known only to himself.

False logic.

Attorney General Moody, discussing
legal point, said:
"That is striking but false logic. 1t
reminds me of a conversation | once
heard at the seashore.
"A man in a striped bathing suit
was running on thin, pale legs over
the hot, white beach toward the cool
water when a friend, Selling him by
the arm, said:
What! Are you going in to battle
just after a heavy lunch? Why, you
will be drowned
ooh, no; not at ALL replied the
other. 4 ate nothing but fish,"
