FIND A NEW ROAD
Chicago Automobile Club Finds Way
to Get Away From Glencoe Police

The road scouts of the Chicago Auto
mobile Club have discovered a new
route to Highland Park and Lake For
est, by the use of which the business
man motoring to and from his office
down town may avoid the town of Glen
coe and other hostile settlements along
the north shore.
This information is contained in d
bulletin posted in the club house Fri
day afternoon and the first trial of the
new road was had by several members
Friday night.
The road is said to be in first class
condition, little travelled and sparsely
settled, and the officials of the motor
lists organization, who are endeavoring
to relieve the acute situation brought
about by wholesale arrests in the north
shore suburban districts, believe the
use Of the new route will prove salts
factory to all those who use their au-
tos for quick transportation to and
from the city.
"Follow Central street at North
Evanston read the bulletin, tout to
the end Of the trolley track and about
half mile beyond, where will be found
"a line Of poles with three lower wires
on porcelain insulators that connects
the electric sta ton at Evanston with
the station at Highland Park. There
is not hill on the road and the high
way itself is good all the way. The
distance from Evanston to the Moraine
Hotel in Highland park is 1917 miles.
Considering the absence of steep in
clines and hostile constables, as rapid
time car be made as over the old
Sheridan road route

JACK DOUGHERTY WINS
enosha Fighter Shows Old Time Speed
in Disposing of His Opponent

Jack Dougherty, just returned after
a long sojourn on the coast signalized
his return to Wisconsin by winning a
decidedly easy victory over Young Bat
thing Nelson in Milwaukee last night.
The fight was the windup Of show
given by the Milwaukee Eagles Club
and Dougherty was SO much better
than the Chicago fighter that it took
him just minute and a half to put
his opponent down and out. Dougherty
was in great form and his friends are
expecting great things of him during
the coming winter months. He is now
out looking for the welter-weight
championship and the manner in which
he disposed Of the Young Battler seems
to indicate that he is right in line. A
number of Kenosha people went to Mil
waukee to witness the bout.

Burglars Enter BrassvilIe Store at
Midnight Sunday and Get
Lots of Booty for Work
POLICE SEEKING SUSPECTS
Men Broke Open the Rear Window of
: the Store and Evidently Had
Carefully Planned For
Robbing the Place

The store of Ole Vetter in Brass
vile was entered by burglars some
where about midnight Sunday night
and the thieves after making 81 care
full search of the place managed to get
away with quantity of canned goods
and tobacco. The exact amount of the
loss from the burglary cannot be given
as it is impossible to tell just what has
been taken. 1t is certain that the men
were in the store for some time and
that they made a careful search In
hopes of getting some money, but the
cash drawer was practically empty and
if the burglars got any money it was
only few cents. The burglary was
discovered early Monday morning and
reported to the police and they at once
dent that the men had little or no use
for the canned goods which were taken
from the store as cans of fruit and
vegetables were found thrown in yards
in various places about that part of
the city and it looks as if the men took
the canned goods just because they
found nothing else, to satisfy their de-
sire to steal and as soon as they got
away from the scene of the robbery
they threw them away. The police are
out looking for number Of young men
who are supposed to have been con-
nected with the crime, but it seems that
these men have fed from the city and
they cannot be located. The burglary
is very similar to the half dozen other
crimes of this nature that have been
committed in Kenosha during the past
year and a half. The burglars had evi.
IDENTIFY been watching the officer on the
beat and as soon as the policeman went
by the store they broke open one of
the rear windows and went into the
place. It is evident that they made a
careful search for anything of value
and they got out just before the officer
returned to the store.
The police are keeping close watch
on number of young sports about
town who have no visible means of
support and it IS thought that they will
be able to fasten the crime on one of
these fellows. This is the sixth burg
larry in the city in the past few months
and but one Of the criminals has been
taken. The police are determined to
leave no stone unturned TO get the men
who broke into the Vetter place and see
to it that they are sent to prison.
These men or boys as they may be,
seem to be decidedly clever in this work
as they have not only eluded the city
police, but the special detectives secur-
ed at a large cost by the city.

OLD ROAD CASE AGAIN
Attorney Still Suing the Town of
Wheatland for Services in Case

An echo of the old McGary road
case which occupied the interest of the
Town Board of Wheatland for several
years and which was bitterly contested
in the Supreme Court vii be heard at
the coming term of the Circuit Court
when the jury will hear the case Of A.
G. Rietbrock Of Milwaukee against the
Town of Wheatland. Fred Rietbrock
of Milwaukee, an old Wheatland man
was the legal representative of the
town in the road fight and his success
sors in the Milwaukee law Office claim
that the town is still indebted to the
attorneys in the sum of over $500. The
suit was brought into the last term of
the Circuit Court, but was non-suited
and this IS a new action against the
town rather than against the individual
officials.

TO ADOPT LARGE CLASS
Kenosha County Woodmen to Take Part
in Big Reunion at Salem sept. 10.

On Saturday September 10, the Wood
men of Kenosha county will hold a
class adoption at Salem. Different
camps from the county will be present
with candidates who will be regularly
initiated into the order by the Keno
sha Forester team. The program will
consist of parade Of foresters and
of the different camps
followed by supper and the adoption
of the new members. The Kenosha
forester team which will have charge
of the ceremony is one of the best
drilled teams in the country and took a
high mark in competition with other
teams at the national convention at
Peoria. Members in charge Of the
county meeting are making an effort
to secure acceptances from prominent
Woodmen of the country to be present
and it is likely that the event will be
one to be remembered by the Woodmen
of the county.

Chicago Corporation Organized To
Build -Four Roads Between
Chicago & Milwaukee
SPEEDWAY FOR AUTOMOBILES
Company Will Also Build a Trolley
Line, Boulevard and a Freight
Road to Connect the Two Cities
Would Sell Stock Here

Ambitious plans for an automobile
speedway, q new trolley line, a public
boulevard and freight highway be-
tween Chicago and Milwaukee became
known today when Kenosha capitalists
received letters urging them to take
shares in the new company, which is
called the Chicago Milwaukee Road and
Realty Company, and which has head
quarters in Chicago.
The project calls for the following
immense plans, all Of the roads de-
scribed being combined into one mag
nifcent wide thoroughfare maintained
as a toll road between the two cities
An automobile speedway between
Chicago and Milwaukee on which it
proposed to have no speed limit.
"A separately arranged road for
automobile truck and freight vehicles
Of all kinds.
"a trolley line.
"A public boulevard.
The letters describing the project are
signed by F. P. Layman of Chicago,
and emanate from the offices Of the
fiscal agent Of the corporation, A. 7.
Dings Of Monroe street. Kenoshans are
asked to investigate with a view of
buying stock and the originators of the
plan claim that plans and conditions
on which the great white way will be
constructed will insure protection and a
safe return.
With each letter are picture postal
cards showing road built in four
sections separated from each other by
fences Of iron and credit for the de-
sign is given H. D. and F. P. Layman.
Great stress IS laid upon the fact that
there will be no speed limit for auto
mobiles and an especial appeal seems
to be made to owners Of machines.
This is an indication that the road will
be toll road, and if it were public it
~ have to submit to the some old
village speed ordinance.
Kenosha people see the greatness of
the project but think that it's cost may
be too great. v
The system is merely the old Sheri-
dan road scheme elaborated and mod
ernized and calls for system of pro-
tected roadways between the two great
cities of the middle west. Whether the
electric road will, be new one or
whether the right Of way Of the Chica-
go and Milwaukee Electric road, 100
feet wide all the way from Chicago to
Milwaukee, will be made available, is
not known.
The projectors urge that Kenosha is
bound to grow with such a road in
stalled.

SEEK MISSING SALESMAN
A. j. Stiles Disappears Mysteriously
After Coming to Kenosha Tuesday

The local police officers are making
an effort to find some trace of A. J.
Stiles a Chicago travelling salesman,
who has been missing since last Tues
day Stiles is employed by a Chicago
Rubber Company and he left Chicago
on Tuesday morning to come to Keno
sha to visit his trade. So far as can
be learned he never reached Kenosha.
At the time he left Chicago Stiles had
quite little money in his pocket and
his employers as well as members of
his family seem to think that it is
possible that he met with foul play.
The police here have visited all the
customers of Stiles, but all of them
declare that they have not seen him
in Kenosha in several weeks.
