STATE AID FOR SCHOOLS
State superintendent Cary Divides
$4,000 Among Graded Schools

State Supt. c. P. Canyon Tues
day announced the superintendent
of state aid for state graded schools.
An annual appropriation Of $4,000 is
made for this purpose. The schools
are divided into two classes, depend
ing on the amount spent by each dis
trict for Institutional purposes and
on the number of teachers employed.
All schools receiving state aid must
comply with the study regulations i'm
posed by the state superintendent of
public instruction.
The first class schools receive $500
and the second class 500 in state aid
under this appropriation. Several
schools entitled to this aid have failed
to submit their annual reports to the
state superintendent, aud therefore
their state aid has been withheld.
Other schools have failed to comply
with the superintendent's require
ments and lost their right to part Of
the $50, 900. In all about twenty
schools have been delinquent in one
or the other of these particulars.

Peter Coyicz Wanted for Brutal
Murder in Milwaukee Captured
in Kenosha This Morning
DECLARES He IS INNOCENT
Man is Alleged to Have Stabbed
Leopold Ritonia Milwaukee
Saloonkeeper-H Been in
Kenosha Since Tuesday

Peter Covicz, a Crotian 20 years 8.
I age, occupies cell at the county iai
charged with. the murder Of Leopo1C
Ritonia, Milwaukee sa1oonkeeper
who was murdered in cold blood or
last Sunday night. Covicz was ar.
rested in room at is Mainsstreel
just after II O'Clock this morning By
Detectives Henry S. Goetzen land
John Hammes, of the Milwaukee de-
tective force, and Tony Borden, OF
the Kenosha force. Borden had the
man under suspicion and led the Mil
waukee officials to the room where he
was arrested.
It is claimed that another man
wanted in connection with the mur-
der is in Kenosha and this afternoon
the Milwaukee dete ctives and Keno
sha police officers are securing the
city in an effort to arrest him. AT
the county jail Coyicz declared that
he was In no way connected with the
killing Of the Milwaukee man and in.
sisted that he had been In Kenosha
for more than a year and had worked
at the Simmons Manufacturing Com;
pany.
The man, however, could give nd
account Of himself and did not know
the number of the house in which ne
lived in Kenosha. It is c1aimedEby
the detectives that Covicz and his
partner came into Kenosha yesterday
morning. Hammes and Goetzen had
been at work on the case since last
Sunday night and they claim that
they have been on the trail of Covicz
since that time.
The murder for which the two men
are wanted is one of the most cold
blooded in the crimina1.annals of Wis
consin.
On Sunday night just after ten
O'Clock, three Crotains, strangers in
Milwaukee, went into the saloon of
Ritonia at AS Florida street. The
men engaged in a broil in the saloon
and after time the saloon men took
hand in the fight and pushed the
two men out of the saloon.
One of the men turned on Ritonia
and attempted to strike him, and
when the saloon man started to de-
fend himself against the assault'the
other man came to the aid of his COM
panion; and drove a stiletto into the
heart of the sa1oonkeeper.
Ritonia fell to the ground and died
instantly. The three men who had
been IN the saloon escaped down an
alley and since that time they had
been able to hide themselves. from the
police. s
The Milwaukee police had been on
the track of the men since the night
of the murder, and as it was thought
that they we're hiding in Milwaukee,
the police of other cities in the state
had not been asked to look for them.
This morning, however, the Mil
waukee detectives found that Covicz
had come to Kenosha and they at
once followed them. With the aid Of
Borden, the Polish policeman, they
had little trouble locating their man.
Goetzen notified the Milwaukee Off
Gals of the arrest of Covicz just latter
two O'Clock and the accused man will
be taken to Milwaukee late this after
noon.

Violating Of Splitting Ordinance

Police Find no Cause for Arrests for
Violating of Splitting Ordinance
The people seem to have taken
kindly to the anti-spitting ordinance
and the police report that they have
found no reason to make any arrests.
Most people have adopted the plan of
stepping to the curb to expectorate
and it IS the opinion Of the officers
that the ordinance will be pretty gen.
orally observed without making ar
rests. Several people have been CIV
en- a kindly warning by the officers
and this was all that was necessary.
The warnings have been taken. good
naturedly. The police have been in
structed to use common sense in the
enforcement of the ordinance, but to
see to It that it is enforced.
