The Elks dance last evening at
their club proved winner from start
to finish. There were many of the
new members present, who OF course
had their ladies', but all this was
not the cause of the crush and
style. II was due to the charming
bunch OF honorees, and 1t was their
first full fledged function of the
summer and the tact and taste, style
and form displayed In the arrange
ment put them quite up in doing
things socially. The clubs colors,
purple and white, were effectively
shown in fluttering banners hung
among the drapings. The programs
were neat, having the dance order
done in purple and white with TIE
clubs seal at the top. The members
were decidedly en- regal in dress and
au fait in department and the girls
graced the event in their prettiest
frocks and the men looked their
handsomest in white trousers and
shirtwaists. Terpsichore Is persist

TO DELAY HEARING
Gas Company and City Attorney May
Agree to Delay Hearing

The hearing of the complaint against
the .Kenosha Gas and Electric Company
now before the State Railroad Com
mission and scheduled to be taken up
a week from today, will probably be
adjourned for thirty days or even long
er as neither the company nor the city
has as YET reached the valuation of
the plant as made by the engineers of
the commission, and the company will
not be ready to file an answer in time
to allow the case to go on at the time
set. IF an adjournment is not taken
it is probable that long time will be
consumed by the hearing in order to
get the valuation made by the state to
correspond with the valuation made by
the company. The City Council has
left the matter entirely in the hands
Of the city attorney and his action will
be ratified by the Council.

and is Baaly Bruised in Game

Foot ball has claimed another victim
in Kenosha in the person Of George
NicoE, the sen Of Robert Nicoll the
we'll known jeweler Young Nicoll is
now at his home suffering from i
fracture of the left collar bone and a
dozen bad bruises. He is out Of the
game for all time and it is probable
that he will not be able to use his arm
for number of weeks. Nicoll was
playing with one of the amateur teams
of the city and when he went to tackle
runner he was thrown heavily and a
large number Of the members of the
opposing team piled on him. When he
got out Of the scrimmage he felt a
tWitch in his arm, but showed consid-
cradle pluck in going on with the
game. After the game was over he
went to surgeon and found that the
collar bone was fractured. This is the
fourth injury from foot ball in Keno
sha, three Of the players having col
lar bones broken while the fourth had
his foot injured.

Mr.. and Mrs. Gilbert 0Iesen of
Milwaukee Meet With Sad
Fate on Wedding Trip
ARRESTED FOR DISTURBANCE
Bride and Groom and Other Members
of the Wedding Party Spend
Several Hours at the Ke-
nosha County Jail

A Milwaukee wedding party came
to grief in Kenosha late Saturday
evening when Mr.. and Mrs. Gilbert
Olesen who had been united in marri-
age IN Justice Schooner IS Court on
Grand avenue in Milwaukee Saturday
morning, together with Gustav John
son the best man and Miss Florence
Darlington the maid Of honor at the
wedding were arrested on Main street
on charge of making disturbance.
Louis Salin, who had been one of the
members of the wedding party, was
also arrested, but Dick Dale, the last
attendant Of the groom and two young
women who had acted as bridesmaids
in the ceremony escaped from the
clutches Of the police of the city and
managed to get car for Milwaukee.
Olesen lives at 283 Washington
street, Milwaukee, and he brought out
his marriage certificate in an effort to
get the police to release him and his
bride, but this the officers refused to
do and bridegroom and bride, best
man and maid Of honor, sat down to a
dinner of beans and salt pork in the
county Jail at night. Between their
sobs the bride and the maid of honor
refused to partake of the Jail fare and
the male members of the party were
so mad that they could not eat. The
three men were taken before Justice
McCa1ron, just after eight clock at
night and fined dollar and costs each
while no charge was put against the
bride and Miss Darlington and they
were released from Jail just as soon
as the bridegroom and his attendants
had pooled their funds and raised
enough money to meet tie stern de-
mands of justice.
Olesen was philosophical abo, the
matter, but declared to the justice
that it would be impossible for him
to live up to his marriage VOW so
lately taken. "You see, Your honor, =
he said, it will be impossible for me
to support that girl for two weeks as
I am laying down nearly every cent
I've got to pay these fines. I guess
however, we can get the relatives to
support us after we get back to Mil
waukee and we were fortunate enough
to get return tickets y At the police
station Olesen pleaded hard for the
bride and his plea moved Chief O'Hare
to such an extent that he decided not
to put any charge against the women
Police Officer Bradley who made che
arrest testified that the members OF
the party were having high old time
when he took them in tow None OF
the parties was intoxicated
Olesen and his bride had a reunion
in the Justice Court after a couple Of
hours in Jail and they left for Mil
waukee on the first car

BITTEN BY A HORSE
Little Son of Ruel Rice Injured in an
Unusual Manner Monday Afternoon

Francis Rice, the little two year old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Ruel E. Rice, met
with an unusual and very painful acct
dent on Monday afternoon when he
was bitten by horse owned by the
Kenosha Gas and Electric Company.
The horse was standing on Park
avenue near the Rice home when the
little boy got too near to it and the
horse reached ont and planted his
teeth in the abdomen Of the child. A
portion of the child IS clothing was
torn out and the teeth of the horse
pierced the skin making bad flesh
wound. The horse also caught hold of
the child by the hair and a portion Of
the hair was pulled out. The screams of
the injured boy attracted people in
the neighborhood and he was taken
TO his home and DR.. III. A. Robinson
called to attend him. While his in
juries were very painful it is not
thought that they will prove serious.

BURGLARS AT WORK
Home of Fred Smith on Lake Avenue
Entered on Monday Evening

The home Of Fred Smith, the well
known north side saloon man, who re-
sides on Lake avenue, was entered by
burglars some time Monday night, but
the men failed to get anything for
the trouble. They entered the house
through one of the rear windows and
once in the house they made a general
search Of the rooms on the lower floor.
1t is supposed that the men were
frightened away by the children of
the household who were awakened BY
their walking about in the rooms. A
careful search this morning failed to
reveal any clue to the guilty parties.
The case was not reported to the police
until several hours after it was dis
covered and there is little. chance for
the guilty parties to be captured

NAV REOPEN CASE
Some Dissatisfaction Found in Regard
to the Clope Verdict

Coroner Frank E. Andre has as yet
taken no steps to hold an inquest over
the skull supposed to be that of Frank
Clope which was found in the Riley
woods on Sunday. The relatives of
Jlope do not seem to be satisfied with
the vera1ct that has been rendered by
the coroner's jury and it is probable
that a new jury will be called to inves-
tigate the case further. Friends Of
Clope in Racine are still insisting that
he was murdered and that the por-
tions Of the body were taken to the
Riley farm after the man had been
killed. This theory is not held by the
local officers, but in order to clear up
the mystery as far as possible it is
probable. that further effort will be
made to get more facts on the manner
of Clope s death

State Normal Over.crowded.

A letter has been received from
President Shoemaker of the St.
Cloud Normal school stating that
the school has become overcrowded
and that no more students will be
admitted before Dec. /, the begin
ming of a new term, and then only
a limited number may be taken.
Former students will be given the
preference and others will be ad-
mitted in order of application.
This notice contained the following:
1.-The Normal Board, at its meeting
on Sept. IS, passed a resolution
limiting the size of the St. Cloud
school. It was found that the num-
ber in attendance was too great for
present accommodations
This notice is sent out with the
request that the same be published
so as to inform prospective pupils
of the condition of the school and
so save the inconvenience and ex-
pense of going to St. Cloud unless
they have made arrangements be.
forehand to enter the school.
Willmar tribune., 1908-10-14

a fine man, with high and honest
purpose, but that he has stood fer
so many "fallacies' and his remi-
dies are visionary" And then
they will clinch it by pointing to
16 to l. Now jest let your Uncle
Silas rear up on his hind legs and
slam the table and say: that 16 to
l was no fallacy. The republican
platforms Of the past have declared
for it as we'll as Bryan. But the
Republicans joined Grover Cleve-
land and went back on free silver
at the very time when they should
have stood by free silver; at the
very time when there was a short
age on gold and the people were
suffering from falling prices and
panics. Then it was that young
Bryan came out in congress, cou-
rageous, free, defiant against Grov-
er Cleveland, the Republican party
and Wall street. But Wall street
won, and the gold standard was
fastened upon the country for good.
And Wall street laughed up its own
sleeve to think how cleverly it had
increased the value of it's own dol
lars. But, what happened? Provi-
dence. not the republican party,
was with the people. In 1897 came
the great gold discoveries in Klon-
| dyke, followed by those in South
Africa and other places. And then
came the invention of dredging the
river bottoms and valleys of Cali
fornia. As gold began to increase
and cheaper, prices began to go up.
With advancing prices farmers be.
gan to find it easier to pay their
debts. And so much has gold in.
creased during the last II years,
so enormously increased, that its
production amounts to more than
both gold and silver together prior
to 1896. In other words, the free
coinage Of gold is furnishing as
much to the market as both free
gold and free silver would have
done had the production Of both
remained about the same as it was.
And it proves that Billy Bryan was
absolutely right.
