 MT. Hefln and Judge A. J.

The last few days of the campaign were lively.

THREE ARE LET FREE
Mr.. and Mrs. Harold Mitchell TO
Alone Answer for Killing of
Woman at Zion City
KEN0SHAPE0PLE INTERESTED

Walter and Jennie Greenhaulgh
and Mrs. Louisa Schmidt, of Zion
City, who were arrested as acces.
series to the crime of mausla ughter
ia connection with the killing of
Mrs. Margaret Greenhaulgh at Zion
City several weeks ago, will not be
tried for their part in the death Of the
old woman as Attorney Hanna, of
Lake County, nolled the charges
against them1ate Tuesday afternoon
and it is understood that the three
will go on the stand as witnesses for
the state and tell the whole story of
the fanaticism of the so called Par
hamites IN Zion City. Harold Nit
chell and his wife, the alleged healers,
will be forced to bear the full blame
for the tragedy which resulted in the
death of the old woman and the pair
we're put on trial on charge of man
slaughter in the Circuit Court in
Waukegan today.
The case has aroused wide interest
in Kenosha as many of the members
residents OF this city. Brother Tom
who is supposed to have been the
leader Of the sect had formerly re.
sided at house on Exchange street,
but when an effort was made to inter-
view him today it was found that the
house was vacant and carpenters were
planning to rebuild it. 1t is supposed
that Brother Tom has gore back to
Zion City. A special jury panel has
been called to hear the evidence
against the so called religious fana-
tics.
1t is expected that Gideon Ham.
mond, formerly secretary of the Y. M.
G. A. of this city, will be called as a
witness in the case TO testify as to the
teachings of, the sect of which the
accused people were believers, but it
should be expressly stated that Mr..
Hammond had nothing to do with the
treatment of Mrs. Greenhaulgh
Hammond is one of the men in charge
Of "The Haven" at Zion and he is
alleged to be one of the closest fol-
lowers of Brother Tom.
A NUMBER of followers of the sect
in Kenosha went to Waukegan this
morning to attend the trial of the
Mitchells. Both Mitchell and his wife
are we'll know to the Zionites in ke-
noSha.

SEEK MISSING MAN
Police Have Mystery in the
Disappearanceof John Buch-
kuIiak, a Working Man
MAN CONE SINCE SATURDAY

Members of the police force and
Sheriff Pfennig and his deputies have
been asked to make a search for John
Buchkuliak, Slav who has been
missing from Kenosha since last Sat-
urday and who it is feared has met
with foul play. The man was en-
ployed in the dye room of the Chica-
go-Kenosha Hosiery works and re-
sided at the home of Paul Fuchela on
Third street. He left the Third street
home between six and seven O'Clock
Saturday evening, dressed in his
working clothes and he stated that he
was going down town to make some
purchases. It is alleged that he had
quite large sum of money in his
pockets when he left the house. No
thing has been heard of him since
that time. He has not been seen
about the factory where he was EN-
ployed and none of his friends has
been able to find any trace of him.
His clothing and trunks are still at
the house on Third street, but he has
sent no word to his landlord as to
what disposition is to be made of the
effects.
The man is forty years of age and
married. His wife and three children
are still residing in Austria, but he
had been making arrangements to
have the woman and the children Join
him IN Kenosha. The friends of the
man do not know just how much
money he had with him when he dis
appeared, but they said that it was
quite a large sum for a working man
to carry and they think it possible
that some one knowing that he had
this money assaulted and robbed him.
Buchkuliak is not unknown to the
police as he was at one time in the
county Jail OH a charge of intoxica-
ton. AS the man is widely known
among the Austrians of the city they
are taking a great interest in the
search that is being made for him.

Men Who Have Been Out of Work
at the Badger Not Yet Ready
to Return to Work
FORCES BEING DECREASED
Other Plants in the City are Laying Off
Men on Account of Business Con-
ditions, and Few are Rum
ming Full Capacity

The troubles at the Badger Brass
company's plant are still unsettled
and the meeting of the men formerly
employed held on Tuesday evening
accomplished nothing. Another meet
ing will be held this evening, at which
time it is thought that the heads of
the different unions interested in the
settlement Of the trouble will'be ready
to make reports. 1t is not known
whether or not theselreportss will be
favorable to a return to work and
leaving the settlement of1the differ
ences for future consideration. The
matter has been generally threshed
out among the men and some of them
seem to be favorable to SaniIearly set
Element of the trouble. AS the busy
season of the Badger is just opening
the company would probablysssbe able
to put most of the old men back to
work within a short time if a settle
ment satisfactory TO all concerned
can be reached.
The business men of the city seem
to be anxious to find some settlement
of the trouble as soon as possible and
many of them are lendingStheir aid to
get the warning factions together.
Things continue quiet out at the plant
and there has been no demand for the
presence of any officers or any one
else. The plant is operating just as
if nothing had happened, but the
number of men employed is much
smaller than is usual at this time of
the year.
The decision of the leaders of the
union is being eagerly awaited by
many of the men who seem to- be
anxious to have the matter settled in
order that they may return to work,or
make some other arrangement for the
cold winter months. Quite a little
stir has been caused by the announce
ment that the Simmons company will
run on a short schedule for time at
least and it is possible that this short
schedule will continue for some time.
All over the country the mannfactur-
ers are curtailing their expenses to the
very lowest figure on account of the
shortness of ready money and every
man that can be laid off is being laid
off.
The Kenosha manufacturers are
seeking to make some sort of an ar
rangement by which all the men in
the city may find profitable employ
ment during the winter but it is
pretty certain that there will be a
pruning in the pay roll aud men who
have been carried in order that they
! would be ready for the overtime work
kwhen it was needed may be dropped.
! The busy season at the Jeffrey
plant will be on within a short time
but the other large plants of the city
will not have a rush season until after
the new year opens. The manufac-
turers have given assurance that no
men will be laid off unless it is abso-
lutely necessary.

The Loneliness of Greatness.

l sometimes think that great men
suffer the greatest impoverishment in
the realm Of human kindness. In the
first place, we are afraid Of approach
ing them lest our offers should seem
presumptuols and impertinent, or we
think that such little ministries as
ours can never be needed, and the
kindly service is withheld. Dr. Rob
ertson Nicol has told us what delicate
delight it gave to Ian Maclaren when
anybody did him kindness. An in
dividual act Of personal grace made
his heart sing for many a day.-Lon-

tras From Board of Education
The Board of Education met in
regular session at the city hall on
Tuesday evening but there was little
business of interest transacted at the
meeting. Attorney A. E. Buckmaster,
acting for Contractor Charles G..
Theleen, presented a bill to the board
in the amount of 1886, which was
claimed for extras at the Central
school building. The architect has
recommended that the bill be not al
lowed and it is possible that the
matter will find it's way into the
courts before settlement is reached.
Jacob Saftig formally became a
member of the board for the Eighth
ward his certificate of election being
filed by the City Clerk.
There was the usual mum Der of bills
to be allowed and the usual amount of
routine business after which the
board adjourned to the next regular
meeting.

TO SHUT OFF WATER
Water Company Begins Annual Work
of Shutting off De1inquents

The time for the payment of the
city water bills expired on Monday
and the man with the wrench started
ont this Afternoon to shut off the
water of all delinquent customers.
The collections this year have not
been as large as usual and within a
week many people will be without
water and be forced to pay the added
fee for having the water turned on
again. The records of the water office
show that about three-fourths of the
bills have been paid and there are
about two hundred delinquents.
AS the amount is large the COM
missioners have decided that the only
way to force the collections is to be-
gin shutting the water off at once,
and the man with the wrench will get
about as fast as possible. He was
working the downtown district this
afternoon and will get out to the
suburban districts before the first of
next week.
