GOING TO APPLETON
local Y. NJ. C. A. Planning To
Send Delegates to the State
Convention at Appleton
GREAT MEETING is PLANNED

Quite a number of the officers and
members of the Kenosha Branch of
the Y. M. G. A. are planning to go to
Appleton the latter part Of this month
to attend the annual Wisconsin State
convention of the Association which
opens on Jan. %. 1t is expected that
this will be the largest gathering of
Y. M. G. A mon ever held in Wisconsin
and speakers who have been prominent
in Association work in all parts of the
state will be present at the convention
and deliver addresses One of the most
interesting features of the convention
will be the report from the work being
done by the Association in Japan which
is to be made by G. V. Hubbard, a
Racine boy who is widely known among
the members of the Association here.
Many matters Of greatest Importance
to the future of the Association will be
taken up at the convention and it is
expected that some plans will be made
that will push the work of the Associ-
alton forward next year with faster
strides than ever before.
It is expected that there will be at
least five hundred delegates present at
the convention and that every Associ-
alton branch including the railway
branches which are becoming very nu-
merous in the state will be represented
The convention opens on the evening
of January % with gymnasium and
athletic meet to be held in the gym
nasium at Lawrence University. The
usual program of indoor athletic events
has been arranged for this meet and the
main trophy will be the State Y. M. c.
A. championship cup. This cup was at
one time held by the team of the Ke-
nosha Association but in the last two
years Kenosha has sent no team to the
state meeting. The athletes Of the local
Association still have this matter under
advisement and it is possible that a
team will be sent to the Appleton meet
to make an effort to again win the
trophy for the local branch. The Off
Gals for the Athletic meet will include:
Referee, A. L. Meyers, Appleton; start
er, j. F. Judin, Waukesha; clerk G. S.

THAW's LEGAL INSANITY CASE

New Yo, Jan. 15.-The attorneys

lessly to : .p the case of legal in

H. Koehler, of Winona, Mimi, who
acted as instructor to Thaw in the
Wooster CO., university in 7eS6, and
Mrs. Amy Grosette, of San Mateo,
CAL, who attended Thaw as trained
nurse at Monte Carlo N 1897, Npth tod
of the young mans eccentricities and
declared that his manner always was
! irrational
DR.. John L. Deemar, of Kittanning,
Pa, one of the Thaw family physi-
clans, also was heard, as were the at
tendant physicians of three institutions
for the insane where members of
ThaW's family on both paternal and
maternal sides were confined. District
Attorney Jerome, by invoking the priv
ilege of physician, and patient blocked
! much of this latter testimony, but the
calling of the witnesses and the ques-
tons they were allowed by the court
to answer left the desired impression
upon the jury.

PUSHES HIS CLAIM
&c. TheIeenWants Pay for Repair
Work Alleged To Have Been
Done at Central School
SCHOOL BOARD OUT OF FUNDS

Attorney A. E. Buckmaster appeared
before the Board of Education at its
regular meeting at the City Hall last
night and demanded the payment of
claim of 1886 made against the Board
by Z. G. Theleen in connection with
the repairs at the Central School build
ing. The amount is claimed for extra
work done and according to Theleen
this work was not called for in the con
tract but ordered by members of the
Board. The Board took no action on
the claim and it is probable that The
leen will have to bring suit if he col:
lects the amount. The members of the
Board claim that should the Board de-
sire they would have grounds for
counter suit against Mr.. Theleen on
account of the fact that the work at
the school was not completed on sche-
dule time and according to the con-
tract the Board had right to claim
forfeiture of $25 day for such time
as the school was uncOmpleted after the
date settled in the court. 1t is ad-
mitted that the contest is one be-
tween Mr.. Theleen and the Architect
in charge Of the rebuilding of the school
and it is possible that an amicable set
Element will be reached without resort
ing to the courts. The Board continued
the allowance of bills for current ex-
penses Notwithstanding the fact that
the balance in bank has long since been
exhausted. The bank is evidently good
to the Board and the orders for the
teachers. salaries, as well as for bills
for current expenses have been paid
without question. 1t is possible how
ever that the Board will be forced to
pay interest charges for the advance
ment of this money. The money from
the state treasurer is expected to arrive
at any time and it is thought, that there
will be enough of this to meet the
back payments and tide the Board over
until the portion Of the taxes appro-
priated by the council for the schools
shall be paid over to the Board

Tinsmith Arrested on q Bench
Warrant Charging Him With
Contempt Of Court
THREATENS TO SUE COUNTY
Man rs Charged With Not Having Paid
Alimony Directed by the Court
But He Declares That He
Has a Receipt in Full

The domestic unpleasantness which
came into the lives Of Theodore and
Henrietta Jansen years ago and which
has furnished work for the courts for
the better part Of three years cropped
out again late Monday afternoon when
Jansen was arrested by Sheriff Pfennig
on bench warrant issued by Judge
Belden charging him with contempt of
court and he still languishes in the
county jail awaiting the coming of
his attorney r. V. Baker, who is at
present out Of the city. The order for
contempt was issued on account of the
fact that Jansen is alleged to be far
behind in The payment of the alimony
directed by the court. On the other
hand Jansen claims that he has paid
all that the court decreed and that he
has receipt in full from the attorney
for Mrs. Jansen It is expected that
an effort will be made to secure the
release Of Jansen on a writ Of habeas
corpus.
The warrant for the arrest Of Jansen
was issued by Judge Belden on Dec.
IL of last year and it is claimed that
since that time Jansen has been absent
from Kenosha. He came back to the
city several days ago and his presence
was discovered yesterday by the sheriff
and he a once placed him under arrest.
Jansen was sleeping when found at the
Jail this morning but he was ready and
willing to talk of the case. He declared
his arrest an outrage and insisted that
he paid to the attorneys for his former
wife and into the First National Bank
all Of the money ordered by the court.
lie insisted that as soon as he could
get out Of Jail he would bring an action
against Kenosha County for false ar
rest.
The troubles of the Jansens were first
decided in the Circuit Court on Sept.
80, 1905, when Judge Belden handed
down decree granting a divorce to
Mrs. Jansen and giving her the Gus
tody Of the children. It was directed
by the order Of the court that Jansen
pay his former wife $500 in cash as her
share of the property held by them
and that in addition he pay to the First
National Bank on the first of each
month alimony to the amount of SIS.
1t seems that Jansen has carried out
the order of the court in part but the
amount Of money paid to the bank was
five dollars shy for several months and
the attorneys for Mrs. Jansen have
made repeated efforts to collect the
amount alleged to have been due from
the husband. Jansen has been cited
into court and at the last hearing it
was thought that an agreement for a
settlement had been made. Mrs. Jan
sen is now living in Chicago with the
children and it is declared that the
husband will go inc the Circuit Court
and seek a reopening Of the divorce
case in order to make fight for the
custody of the minor children.
Jansen is still in jail this afternoon
but it is thought that his attorney will
be back from Chicago later in the day
and that he will Immediately take
steps to secure the release of his client.

MAX WAS DEsPoNDENT
Kenosha Friends Of Drowned Man Be-
1ieve He Took His Own Life

Kenosha friends of Charles Max.
a Milwaukee employee Of the Chicago
and Milwaukee Telegraph Company,
whose body was found floating in the
lake on last Sunday, are of the opinion
that Max was a suicide, and CONVEX
sations held with the man a short time
before he disappeared seem to back
up this belief. Max was well known
in Kenosha as he had been coming
here for years to do construction
work for the two Telegraph Com
panies. He was in Kenosha only a
short time before he disappeared from
Milwaukee on the night Of December
10. At that time he was in charge of
the work Of putting cable under the
Kenosha river near the Main street
bridge. He was at work on this CON
tract for several days, and when the
work was completed he remained in
Kenosha for several days. Max was
a friend of Henry Isermann, Chief of
the Fire Department, and just after
the work was completed ne was talking
with lsermann and he told the Chief
that he would hear something sensa-
tional about him in about two weeks
Isermann declares that at this time
Max appeared to be greatly worried,
claiming that Notwithstanding the
fact that he had worked for years for
the company younger men were coming
in and gaining favor and that these
men were taking the place that he
should have had. Max seemed at that
time to be decidedly respondent and
the Kenosha Fire Chief declares that
he was not in any way surprised to
hear of the disappearance of the man
and the subsequent finding of his body
in the lake. The relatives of Max in
Milwaukee declare that he met with
foul play, and assert that at the time
he left home he had considerable mo-
ney in his pockets. When the body
was found in the lake nothing of value
was found in the pockets Of the dead
man. The inquest over the remains
of Max is to be held in Milwaukee
on Thursday
