John Mecefeldouski Victim Of Hold
Up Men Supposed To Have
Come From Milwaukee
BRANOIsH KNIFE IN FACE
Men Escape on West Bound Freight
Train and Leave the Train at Fox
River and Take to the Woods
No Trace of Them Found

Crooks supposed to be from Milwaukee
were in Kenosha for less than ten min
utes last night, but in that time they
managed to pull off one of the most
daring hold-ups ever known in the city.
They got little booty for their daring,
but the crime was sufficient to put police
officers of the city and deputy sheriffs
in all parts of the county at work.
The victim of the hold-up men was
John Mecefeldouski, who resides in the
town Of Somers, the men securing lit
tie over $500 from him.
Mecefeldolfski had been in the city
and was walking toward his home
along the railway tracks just after ten
o CLOCK. AS he reached the crossing of
the railway at Division street freight
train was pulling in from the north
and he STEPPED to the side of the street
to await. the passing of the train. AS
the train was moving along slowly three
men dropped from one of the cars and
in second they had surrounded the
Somers man and demanded his cash.
They emphasized the demand by brand
ishing a long knife and threatened to
take the life of Mecefeldouski if he did
not hand over his cash and valuables.
The Somers man was thoroughly fright
ened and without further ado handed
over his money. The men ran into the
railway yards and disappeared and as
soon as possible the man who had been
robbed notified Deputy Sheriff More
house and he informed the police. In
the meantime the three men had caught
a train going out on the western divi-
sion but this fact was not known to the
police and seven suspected men were
arrested and taken to the police Office.
Mecefeldouski looked these men over,
but was not able to identify any of
them and they were released before mid
night. By this time the train crew in
charge Of the western freight had tele-
phoned to the city that three suspicious
characters had left the train at Fox
River and had run into the woods near
that station. 1t is pretty certain that
VIC Jill 90 ulOu WOI0 GuC 1nGu WHO lou
bed the Somers man and efforts were
made to get hold Of deputy sheriff
in tnat part of the county last night
without avail. This morning Chief OF
Police O'Hare secure the assistance Of
Deputy Sheriff James Pease of Salem
and the country in the neighborhood Of
Fox River is being secured in an effort
to locate the three men
It is certain that the men came in
on the Milwaukee train and that they
were not members of the local gang
which has been committing robberies
in the past few weeks The men were
in Kenosha less than ten minutes in
Keeping with the story told by the
train crew.
The man robbed was pretty badly
frightened, but as none of the men
wore masks he feels> certain that he
will be able to identify them if they
can be captured by the officials.

MRS. LANCER INSANE
Woman Whose House Was Destroyed by
Fire Adjudged Insane by Physicians

~
Fire Adjudged Insane by Physicians
An examination into the mental con
dition of Mrs. Appalonia LANCER, the
wife Of the late Frank LANCER, was con
Quoted by Doctors G. E. Thompson and
G. Windesheim at the orders of the
County Judge this morning and Mrs.
LANCER will probably be committed to
the state hospital for the insane tomor-
row. The physicians found that the
condition of Mrs. LANCER was due to
intense grief over the death of her
husband which occurred some time ago.
The condition of Mrs. LANCER had been
noticeably worse since the fire which
destroyed her home on Sunday evening.
Mrs. LANCER was not present at the
examination, the physicians holding
that the examination would have only
rendered her condition more critical.
The eight children of the family are be-
ing cared for by dear friends and rela-
tives of the unfortunate woman. It is
thought possible that with expert treat
ment she will recover her health.

ETCHEGARAY FAILS 10 IDENTIFY REMAINS
Tries To Find If Remains Are His Brothers, But Is
 Baffled,
(Phoenix Gazette. )


 Joseph Etchegary, brother of Pedro Etchegary, the sheepman who dis appeared from his camp on Copper Creek January 5. 1907, arrived this morning from Los Angeles to see fl he could not identify tne remains Of man ofund on the desert near Beardsley early this month as those of his missing relative. Etcnegary Is unable to tell if the bones are, those -of his brother, but he gives the ad- dress of a man who will be likely to know the clothing. etc, which was found at the same time.
 Joseph Etchegary had not seen his brother for two years previous to nis disappearance and of course knows nothing about the clothes Pedro wore. But Estaban Chenique. Mexican herder who is now employed by Colin Campbell at Camp Russell worked for the missing man and was with him up to the day he disappeared. He should be able to recognize the rancs vest, the string of beads, etc, If they are really those of Pedro Etche gayr.
 Joseph Etchegary is much inclined to believe that the bones are of some one else. There are a number of things which lead him to this belief One is that Chenique has told him that his brother had a .22 canrre rifle with just one cartridge. There was a cartridge shell discovered by the bones, but it was for a twelve gauge shotgun.
 'No. I hardly think these bones be long to my brother" said Etchegary this morning afte- looking the grew. some obects over in a back room oi , Easterling & Whitney's. However do not intend to rest until have found some trace of him. almost hope that I am wrong in thinking these bones are not his last earthly remains If I knew what had become : of him I would feel relieved. But am confident that Chenique can give : shall wire to him to come at once. i There was some hope that Etche- I gary would be familiar with some pc culiarity in the teeth of his relative but he is not He thinks, however that he had two teeth pulled by a Frenchman in Los Angeles, who had | some skill in dentistry. But this Frenchman has since died and there 1! is no way of telling which were the teeth removed. Those in the skull ! which was found are very lose and some have already fallen out.
 Etchegary is not certain that Pedr' carried a string of varicolored beads ! such as were found with the bones but thinks it quite possible that he did so. He came from France abou
 five years ago and if he had beads h, never exhibited them. However he l was a Catholic and might have uset
 them upon which to tell his prayers.

sIsBEE EXTENSION
 DEVELOPMENT COMPANY

To tn stockholders:
 The regular meeting ot the stock holders of the Bisbee Extension De- velopment Company will be held on the second Monday in March (the ninth,) at it's office in the Medigo- yich building.
 At this meeting the matter of changing the par value of the stock to $500 per share and making all stock full paid will be taken up and acted upon. It is the recommends ton of the Board of Directors, by ac- tion- taken at their meeting held on January 27th, that this be done and that all $500 paid stock be echang- ed for its pro rata in $500 paid stock with the privilege to the stockholders of taking an equal number of shares by paying the additional s2.0O per share. The capitalization of the com. pany will remain the same, but there will be SO,000O shares of $500 paid stock in lieu of 10000 shares of 5000 stock.
 This recommendation isH made by the Board of Directors because we are now in touch with capital that expresses willingness to finance the company if the stock is made full paid and of $500 par value. It Is the opinion of the board of directors that this will be agreeable to the stock holders, as it will enable them to receive full paid stock in exchange for their $500 paid stock and thus relieve them from any further liabil, ity in the way of stock payments. tSigned):
