COMES BACK STRONG
Kid Hertz Signalizes His Re-
turn to the Ring by Stand
ing off Jose Caspar
ISSUES SWEEPING CHALLENGE


Joe Hertzberger, or as he is familiar
.ly known in the fighting game, Kid
Hertz, came back strong last night
and after being out of the fighting
game for many months he went over
to Ives and for eight furious rounds
stood off the assaults OF Joe Caspar
of Kansas City. Casper and the Ke
nosha boy are not in the same class
and Hertz conceded his opponent more
than twenty pounds in weight. Cas-
par is regarded as one Of the best men
in his weight, but there was never a
time during the fight that he had Hertz
anywhere near out and in fact the
Kenosha boy was thought by many at
the ringside to have had the best Of
the contest. Hertz had his old time
punch with him and several times he
had Caspar going, but he could not
get in knockout punch. At the
end of the fight Hertz declared that
he was willing to meet any man in the
world at 12S pounds ringside and it is
probable that he will get several fights
within the next few weeks. Hertz
is in the pink of condition and the
showing that he made at the fight
Wednesday night was a revelation to
his friends.
Harry Forbes, the former world
champion in his class refereed the
bout. About $50 people were present
at the show and there was a big
sprinkling Of Kenosha sports in the
crowd
In the preliminary bout Charley Jury
Of Racine and Fighting Edwards Of
Milwaukee met for an eight-round
draw.

UNDUE INFLUENCE WAS USED
Brother Asserts That Mother Was I'm
der the Influence of Her Daughter
When She Decided Valuable Land in
Kenosha Countys
(From Thursdays Daily

Undue influence, which, it is alleged,
at times made the mind of one woman
completely subjugated to that of an
other, is alleged in a suit brought by
Philip Reynolds against Lolita R.
Bemenderfer and others of the town
of Pleasant Prairie which was filed in
the Circuit Court this morning There
are many sensational allegations in the
complaint and as the parties to the &C
tion are widely known in the town Of
Pleasant Prairie the suit is certain to
attract wide attention. The suit is
brought by Reynolds to set aside a
deed to a large piece of property in
the town of Pleasant Prairie alleged
to, have been given by Mrs Rachel
Reynolds, a pioneer resident Of that
town, to Mrs. Lolita R. Bemenderfer,
her daughter. The plaintiff and the
defendant in the action are sister and
brother and the other brothers and
sisters are named as defendants in the
action for the purpose Of getting the
case into court.
According to the complaint the deed
which it seeks to set aside was made
in January of 1902 and it is alleged
that at that time Mrs. Reynolds was
so weakened in mind and body as to be
practically incapable4of making a con
veyance of real estate. The deed was
properly signed and attested and was
recorded with the register of deeds on
Jan. 80, 1902.
Reynolds in his complaint alleges
that the mother made her home with
his sister at the time of the making
of the deed and that the sister used an
undue influence over to her to such an
extent that at the time the will of the
mother was completely subjugated to
that Of her daughter. He alleges thas
commands and threats were used to
force the old lady to sign the deed and
an agreement which provided that in
consideration of the transfer of the
property the daughter and her husband
should care for Mrs. Reynolds during
the remainder Of her life and in addi-
ton pay her annually the sum Of $500.
In the complaint the brother claims
that this agreement was not kept and
that the mother left the home of Mrs.
Bemenderfer and thatsshe died insane
in May of 1908 and that during the
last years of her life she was forced
to depend upon his charity for the
necessities of life.
The suit demands that the deed be
set aside and that the property as left
by the mother be divided equally be-
tween the different heirs. It is prob
able that the case will be tried at the
March term of the Circuit Court.

FAVOR F. {. M'GOYERN
LaFollette Followers Regard
McGoyern as Strongest of
Faction for Governor

George P. Mathes in the Milwaukee
Sentinel says: Among many it is be-
Iieved that F. E. McGovern would
make the strongest candidate they
could put up to carry the LaFollette
colors in the gubernatorial race.
Among the Milwaukee members on
that side of the fence there is no ques-
tion about it. But the difficulty in
putting this belief into action comes
from the Hatton men.
The friends Of Standardization have
not forgotten the campaign Of last
year when Mr. McGovern spoiled the
senator s political cake by remaining
in the field. They believe that had
he retired or agreed to go into con
ference, as proposed, and have, the
conference decide which one should
remain in the field that Senator Hat
ton would have been the choice Of
that wing and would have secured the
nomination and been elected United
States senator in place Of Senator
Stephenson. With this belief. strong
ly ingrained in their minds they now
do not feel like turning in and helping
Mr.. McGovern.
1t is said that this is what brought
w. w. Dick to Milwaukee last week.
He was willing to do all he could for
Senator Thomas Morris, a former sup
porter Of Senator Hatton, but he
would have none of McGovern. He
was backed in this, it is asserted, by
other Hatton men and when this spirit
was shown to be growing all attempts
to hold a conference were dropped
The statement now being made that
neither McGovern nor Morris will an
nounce their candidacy for governor
prematurely, but will wait until it is
decided which one shall carry the
colors deceives no one.
Mr.. McGovern had no intention of
making his candidacy known publicly
for some time, as he can carry on his
campaign through his old organization
just as we'll without a formal an
nouncement. That Mr.. McGovern
will be candidate for governor no one
who is close to him doubts.
1t is understood that Henry F. Coch-
ems will try again to defeat Congress-
man W. H. Stafford for denomination
in the Fifth district While Mr..
Cochems has not made an open an
nouncement to that effect it is admit
ted he will probably be in the race.
There is also rumor that w. R.
Knell, a former sheriff, may enter the
race. So far as can be seen Con-
gresham Stafford has not lost any of
his strength.
In the Fourth District Senator Geo.
r.. Page is getting his house in order
for the coming struggle, which will be
warm and close. Congressman Cary
is strong in, the district and any one
who defeats him for the nomination
will have to. go some.

SEEK NEW FISHING GROUNDS
Fishing in Outlaying Waters Will be
Prohibited From Oct. Is to Dec. 1

Owners of fishing boats in Kenosha
harbor are looking about for new fish
ing grounds in nticipation Of the
closed season for fishing in the outlay
ing waters which will open on October
Is and continue until December /. Dur
ing that time it is unlawful to catch
trout in the lake and the fishermen
plan to go to the waters adjoining
other states. For years the fishermen
have gone to Waukegan, but this fish
ing ground is now pretty well taken
care of by Waukegan fishing boats.
In addition to this some of the Wis
,consin fishermen have already taken
their boats to Waukegan and there is
not room for the Kenosha men. There
is the usual complaint about the Wis
consin law as it prohibits fishing dur
ing the six weeks while the Illinois
fishermen are permitted to fish in the
lake during the entire year.
