KLEIST NAMED AGAIN
Kenosha Deputy Game Warden is
Reappointed to His Position
by New Game Warden
TOO GOOD LOOKING TO LOSE

Deputy Game Warden Michael
Kleist of this city has received notice
from the state department that he
has been re-appointed for another
term of service and while heads are
being Topped off all about the state,
Kleist will remain in Office and his
pernanency in Office is due to the
fact that he is considered one of the
best looking men on the force. Kleist
has record that is second to none re-
turned by the assistant game wardens
but there we're others with records
and when the reduction of the force
was considered the main fact that
brought Kleist into prominence was
the fact that he had been kissed by
millionaire's daughter. The little
event occurred last summer out at
Twin Lakes. E.. J. Richardson, a
Chicago millionaire, had been arrest
ed by Kleist on a charge of violating
the game laws and he was hurried
over to Justice Blum for hearing.
The case was not an aggravated one
and Richardson's daughter, come1y
girl of seventeen, pleaded with Kleist
to let her father go. The warden
declined to do this but asked the
Court to allow Richardson to go with
the minimum fne. The daughter
was so overjoyed with this fact that
she clasped the warden about the eek
and gave him rousing smack right
on the mouth.
In the letter from the state depart
ment bringing the re-appointment of
Kleist the game warden said: "Good
looking men are scarce on the force
and we cannot afford to lose man
who has been kissed by millionaire S
daughter" Kleist is not of the
opinion that this little incident must
be repeated in order to hold his place
on the force but heis not overlooking
many bets along the same line.

FELL INTO THE LAKE
Fred Ka11es Furnishes Excitement at
Eichelman Park Sunday

Eichelman Park sunday
Fred Ka1les, 16-year-old boy, re-
siding on Prairie avenue. furnished
some real excitement at Eichelman
Park just after o'clock Sunday even
ing when he fell into the lake, and
had it not been for the prompt work
of men in the neighborhood the boy
would have been drowned.
Ka1les and some of his boy friends
were walking along the new break
water when he missed his footing and
fell into the water. The screams of
the boy and his friends attracted the
attention of Fred Perkins and r. E.
Mailer, who reside in the neighbor
hood, and securing boat they went
to the rescue of the boy. He was
badly frightened and had all but gone
down when the rescuers reached him.
The water at this point is about five
feet deep, but the boy supposed it was
much deeper and his struggles caused
a panic among the women at the
park. Kalles will probably suffer no
bad effects from his enforced bath.

Passengers on Nj. r. & x. Get Bad
Shaking Up Sunday Afternoon


Some forty Kenosha people who
were passengers on the Milwaukee,
Racine & Kenosha car which left here
just before three O'Clock Sunday after
noon hada decidedly exciting trip be.
fore they reached their destinations
in Racine and Milwaukee. The car
was running al high rate of speed
and when an effort was made to
round the curve near the Birch farm
the car jumped the track and ran into
the road. The passengers were
thrown from their seats and badly
shaken up but as far as could be
learned none of them was injured.
Traffic on the road was blocked for
more than three hours and there was
no service south to Kenosha during
that time. The wrecking crew was
sent out from Racine and the wreck
had been cleared away little after
six O'Clock. The car was badly

NEW CAR IN SERVICE
First of New Milwaukee Cars Is Taken
Over Lines of Chicago and Milwaukee

First of New Milwaukee Cars Is Taken
Over Lines of Chicago and Milwaukee
With George Merriman as motor
man and Frank Shultis, as conductor,
the Chicago & Milwaukee Electric
Railroad company yesterday put into
service the first of its new series of
cars.
The movement was an important
one, as the car put into service is es-
pecially built for the Milwaukee ordi-
nance requirements and at the Same
time can be run into Chicago over the
elevated railroad tracks, such is it's
type of construction.
The car, No. 131, is much narrower
than the ordinary car of the line. It
is in fact built narrow guage, so that
it can be hitched onto the elevated
tracks of the Northwestern elevated
and run over its tracks without any
difficulties.
In addition to this, it answers the
requirements of the Wisconsin law,
which provides that all cars running
a distance of over twenty-five miles
in the state must be provided with
toilet rooms.
The car is built for high speed and
will probably be mt on the express
service throrg - n Chicago to Mill
waukee. There are twenty-eight cars
of the kind.

Tbs new. special delivery arrange

whetA-oy ordinary postage stamps can
be used IN place of the blue one with
the messenger boy on it at full speed,
IS not yet thoroughly understood by
the public.
Twelve cents in stamps must be
used on the ordinary letters, or ten

of postage required.
In week or two when the people
become accustomed to the new ar
it will work like charm.
Instead of hunting around for the
blue stamp, which is not always easy
to o5fain away from the postoffice,
people will realize how convenient it
is to send letter special delivery
with ordinary stamps. Care should
always be taken to write the words,
especial Delivery" at the top of the
letter or parcel.
Under the old arrangement no one
could have letter specially delivered
unless the blue label, costing ten
cents, was attached to the envelope
along side of the two-cent stamp. AS
these stamps are seldom kept at drug
stores or other places where ordinary
stamps are sold, it was not always an
easy matter to obtain them. The new

MaIzahn Commits Suicide In q
CHASTITY Manner at His Home
in the Town of Wheatland
DOMESTIC LIFE UNHAPPY
Man Placed Double Barrel of Shot
Gun in His Mouth and Pulled the
Trigger With His Toe-Was Well
known in Town of Salem

One of the most CHASTITY cases of
suicide ever known in Kenosha
county occurred a mile and a half
south of the village of New Munster
at midnight Monday, when William
Malzahn, farmer ffty-fve years of
age, blew his head off with a charge
from double barreled shot gun.
Domestic troubles are given as the
cause of the rash act of Malzshn.
The man had evidently planned his
killing with greal deal of care and
just before he went to his bedroom to
kill himself he had been drinking
heavily. He sat down on the bed and
placing both barrels of the gun in his
mouth he pulled the trigger with his
toe. The charge from the gun blew
the head off the man and it was
thrown some feet from the body.
Mrs. Malzahn was sleeping in an adj
joining room and hearing the shots
she rushed into her husbands room
and stumbled over the bloody head on
the floor. She lighted lamp and at
once summoned the neighbors.
The body was turned over.to Justice
H. T. Hoefner who summoned a Jury
and held an inquest Tuesday morning.
The verdict was that Malzahn came
to his death by shots fired by himself.
The remains were buried at the town
cemetery in Wheatland at O'Clock
Tuesday afternoon.
Malzahn was formerly a we'll known
farmer in the town of Salem, but he
left Salem two years ago and re-
moved to New Munster. Since he
moved to the town of Wheatland it
seems that he has had Snos end of
troubles of domestic nature, and
Justice Hoefner stated this morning
that his wife had frequently com
planned of the treatment she had re-
ceived from her husband, and that
only a short time ago he had warned
him that he must do better. A few
hours before the tragedy at the Nal.
zahn home the man had been in the
village of New Munster, and at that
time it is claimed that he had been
drinking alcohol. When he reached
home his wife had retired for the
night, and it is said that there was no
quarrel between the two just previous
to the shooting.
The shot gun with which the man
took his life had not been used in
some time and it was heavily charged.
When the body was picked up the toe
of the man was still restingson the
trigger of the gun and. it is evident
that he died instantly. Malzahn is
survived by the widow and FIVE chill
dren, all of whom were living at the
home in Wheatland. 1t is admitted
that Malzahn.had been drinking very
heavily for several weeks but he had
not been considered insane. Some of
of his friends declare that he had
shown evidences of mental weakness
during the past few days but he had
not made any threats to commit sui
eide.
