PUBLIC LIBRARY
Burglars Break Into GiIbert N.
Simmons Library During Night
and Get Small Booty
SMASH PLATE GLASS DOOR

The band of Kenosha burglars seem
to be of a literary turn Of mind as
some time during Tuesday night
or the early hours of Wednes
day morning burglars entered the
Gilbert vi Summons Library and
making their way from tie base
ment Of the building to tile offices
Of tho library they pried open one
Of the drawers in this room and man
aged to get away with 1920 in money.
It is not thought that any OF the
books in the library were taken, but
it is just possible that the burglar
not only was looking for a little
spending money, but that he had an
idea Of starting a library and took
to crime to get start.
Entrance to the building was made
through one of the basement windows
and the burglar had some trouble when
he got in the building as he fell over
a bucket of tar and oil which had been
used during the day by the tree
surgeon working on the trees in Ii
brary park and left the print Of his
foot in the oil and tar on the base
ment floor. This is the only clue that
the librarian and her assistants are
able to give to the police as to the
identity OF the burglar Once in the
basement he made his way to the main
floor of the library by the narrow
stairway and being unable to break
the lock on the door leading from
the basement to the main floor he
broke a plate glass in the door. The
loss from the breaking of the glass
door was considerably more than the
loss from the money taken from the
cash drawer. The man was not a
gentlemanly burglar in any way as
he spit on the marble floors of the
building and against the walls and the
ianitor had hard job this morning
to clean up after him.
The robbery was reported to the
police, but the librarian and her as
sistants could give little or no cyl
dence for the officers to work on
The library was closed at the usual
hour last night and all of he doors
were securely locked at closing time
There was no one in the building dur
ing the night to interfere with the
burglar in his work and he had a clear
field. The police are closely investl
eating the case and it is thought pos
sible that the man who robbed the
building might be one Of the men who
attempted to hold up H. Baer IN Ii
brary Park on the previous evening.

Wisconsin TO Set Pace for Indus
trial Legislation at Special
Session Next Year
COMMITTEE PLANS BIG WORK

Wisconsin will blaze the way for
other states in the enactment of indus
trial legislation, as it has IN other
directions, if the plans of the special
legislative insNsnqnce committee. which
met for the first time Saturday, are
carried out.
The committee met only for the pur
pose Of effecting an organization, but
early next month it will take up the
task Of framing an effective bill, pro-
viding for system of industrial in
surance in Wisconsin, Senator A. W
Sanborn of Ashland, was elected chair
man and Paul j. Watrous, Milwau
kee newspaper man, was chosen secre
tary. Senator Sanborn is chairman of
the senate committee and Wallace
| Ingalls, is chairman of the assembly
committee R. A. Van Meter of Oar
ington, will be the sergeant alarms
All members of the committee were
present, as follows: Senators A. w
Sanborn, Ashland; j. j. Blaine, Bosco-
| bel e. T. Fairchild, Milwaukee,; AS
semblymen Wallace ingalls,, Racine;
lC. B. Culbertson, Stanley: Walter
Egan, Superior, land George Brew, Mil
Waukec.
Before taking up the work Of fran
| ing a bill many members Of the com
mittee will attend conference of
noted economists and representatives
Of several state legislatures at Atlantic
City, N. j., July 20 to July 81. Among

ling the conference were Senators San

perts who will address the conference

versity Of Wisconsin, whose writings
on the subject have won world wide
comment; Prof Henderson of the Chi
cag0 University, a noted economist and
others of international regulations.
Assemblyman ingalls,, who has taken
a deep interest in the movement for a
more equitable system of protecting
employers and employees from the loss
es which industrial accidents entail
may go to Europe to study the sys
TEN now in vogue in Germany and
England.
| "This is pioneer movement and
about all the information we have is
In the form of statistics, said Mr.
ingalls,. Now statistics are dry ano
afford little real information, and it il
nv idea to go abroad and see how the
lsvstam works and talk with the mer
j who arc working under it. I shall MOI
decide, however, until after the meet
ing in Atlantic City, as we may gei
enough uata there to enable us TO drafr
10 suitable bill.
/ The committee made it plain thai
the cooperation Of employers and EN-
ployes will be solicited in the framing
the new law. Indeed. the eommitte,

GET SECOND INJUNCTION
Order Issued in Fight Between Two
Electric Lighting Companies

The Kenosha Gas and Electric Com
pany Wednesday secured second
restraining order against the Kenosha
Electric Railway Company, the order
being issued by Judge Slosson in the
County Court acting as court com
missioner. The injunction will be
served during the day. The petition
on which the injunction was issued is
similar to that fled by the Ke
nosha Gas and Electric Company
some time ago when an injunc-
ton was issued to prevent the
Kenosha Electric Railway Company
from interfering with the poles of the
old company This time the old COM
pany claims that it is now interfering
with the wires and the new company
is enjoined against doing any damage
to wires. No date is set for the hear
ing on this restraining order, but it
lis expected that it will be taken up
with the other litigation now pending
to which the two companies are
parties.
