The Man Of the Hour the play
by George Broadhnrst which Is q
be here in the near future, by WIZ
lam A, Brady and Joseph R Girls
mer's special company Is unique IN
one respect This Is that every char
acter in it Is describaBle without
the use of III character name This
would seem to indicate what has all
along been claimed for this good and
unusual piay-that the author drew
his types from the Itfe around him.
What other play with real note
and an uncommon record Of success
in the big cities Of the country can
be pointed to as containing dramatic
personages who may be talked Of IN
this wise?
The hero Is always spoken of rs
the Mayor; his chief opponent as
the Boss: his man chum as the idleF:
his sweetheart as the Heiress. the
chum's fiancee as the stenographer;
his political ally as the Alderman;
the ally Of the Boss as the Finan-
cier; the Flnancier's ally as the
Broker; the official pull" OF the
scoundrels as the Judge; the Moth-
er is the reference to one Of the
good women of the play, and the
Easy Mark is the manner in which
a weak and uncertain young bus
ness, man Is spoken of because he
wayers and oscillates between the
temptation to do evil and his ma
tural inclination to be good And II
anybody be asked as to another
character, and one of Importance In
the unfolding Of the thrilling plot
OF intrigue and love. he or she will
reply, 20, you mean the secretary
All these sound, true, recognizable
American types viii be seen at the
Grand-the Mayor. the Idler, the
Boss, the Alderman, the Financler,
the Broker. the Secretary, the Easy
Mark, the Heiress, the stenographer
and the Mother.

HIGH SCHOOL BOYS
MAKE TIGERS
so some

The Tacoma High school boys
made the Tigers play some yester-
day. Campbell, q new twirler,
went on the slab and he had the
leaguers guessing some. A bad
throw in the first inning put the
school boys out of the contest,
but they braced up and held the
Tigers down after that.
In the sixth inning the school
fellows managed to. get a pair OF
runners across the plate. Brin-
golf got a little hit and Campbell
came up and raped one through
Ktppert to the fence, breaking the
long line of gooseggs the Tigers
have been handing out to the anna
Iteur mines in the last few weeks.
The final score was s to 2.

WILL CARRY OUT OLD PLAN

will s*soon, Il is declared, be sold OUT

Three representatives Of the Dowie
colony have gone to Edmonton, Mani,

Chase from the Canadian Pacific Rail
sway company Of two townships of lard
In the irrigated district about forty
miles east Of Calgary. The entire
colony, it4is said, will migrate to the
new lard sthis summer.
While leaders at Zion would not ad-
init that the town is to be abandoned
or that any purchase of land is CON
templatea, dispatch from Winnipeg
stated positively that three Of the lead
ers of the colony were at Edmonton
and had practically completed the deal
for the land purchase. The announce
ment is made from the Canadian city
shat the former lacemakers and candy
makers were to become the tillers of

1t recently became known that ever
since Wilbur Glenn Voliya took charge
of the colony as overseer, following
Dowie' IS reinforcement and death, plans
have been under way looking toward
the purchase of a large tract of land
for farming purposes.
The industrial institutions of Zion
have never prospered, and as result
there has arisen factions and civil
wars that have on several occasions
nearly disrupted the settlement.

MYSTERY rs SOLVED
Christ Petersen Who Died in Racine
Not Resident of Kenosiia

/
The mystery surrounding the! identi
| ty Of the old man supposed to be from
this city, who died suddenly and under
unusual circumstances in Racine on
Wednesday, has been solved and it is
/ is now certain that the man was not
q resident of Kenosha. However, he
was widely known in this city. 1t is
claimed that he had no established
home and for the past eight or ten
years he had made his home in the
cities between Chicago and Milwau
kee. The old man was a wanderer
and he often came into Kenosha and
was a familiar figure to the police. He
mover was known under the name of
Petersen, however, and it is probable
that none Of tine Kenosha people ever
sought to fnd out his name So far as
lis known the cid man had no relatives
ia this part Of the country and his re
mains will probably be buried by Ra-
cine county.

Employees of N. r. Aliens Sons
Company Caught in Cave
in of Sewer Ditch
FELLOW LAB0RERS SAVE LIVES
Men Were Caught without Warning
and One of Them Very Seriously
Injured Before Pile of Sand and
Brick Gould be Removed

Two men had very narrow escape
from death and one of them was very
seriously injured just after eleven
0 clock Thursday when ditch at
the corner of Middle street and Mil
waukee avenue, a part of the pipe line
system being installed for the N. r.
Allen Sons tannery, caved in The
two men were at work in the ditch six
| feet below the surface at the time of
the caving in of the street and they
were buried up to the waist under
tons of brick and sand The injured
men were Joseph Elmo and Joseph
Lebesch. Elmo was taken out of the
ditch with only few bad bruises to
show for his experience, but Lebesch
YVES removed to The Kenosha Hospital
suffering from a fracture of the large
bone of the left hip and it is feared
that he also suffered internal injuries.
Harry Brett, who was in charge Of
t the work, had been in the ditch a
moment before the walls caved in, but
he escaped unhurt.
The two men were adjusting a pipe
near the north end Of the ditch when
without any warning sthe brick pave
rment cavea in and carried with it
great mass Of sand. Both of the
menawere leaning over when the ditch
caved in, but they managed to raise
up to standing position and were
Ipinioned against the north side Of the
ditch by the sand and bfick More
than score of men were at work on
the job and these with volunteers from
the crowd, which gathered, set to work
to release the men, but there was so
much of the sand in the ditch that it
was fully ten minutes before the men
were released from their peril. The
other men worked with the greatest
care fearing that more OF the wall
would cave in and others be caughtj
ian the same manner. AS soony
as the men had been released the am
bulaace was called ard hebesch re-
moved to the hospital where he was
attended by Doctors Gieary and KIM,
bali. Eisno was removed to his home
ION North Main street and taken care
I'of by the same sphysicians.
The work on the ditch was just
about completed and the men In
charge of the work are> at loss to-
explain the cause Of the cave in un-
less lit was due to the fact that the
Sand on waich the pavement is laid at
this point is quick sand In order to-
avoid further trouble the remainder of
the ditch is being braced before the
men work in it.
