Two more Kenosha people gave up
their lives Monday night as a result
of lack of proper protection of the
right of way of the Northwestern Rail
way when George Keusta, aged "a years
residing at 161 North Maple street was
instantly killed and Victor Nadolsky
residing at ia Victoria street met in
juries from which he died at an early
hour this morning at the Kenosha Hos
pital.
The two men were struck by north
bound freight train and thrown many
feet from the track. At the time of
the accident the two men with a COM
panion, Aaron Karnoto, were on their
way to visit friend who lived along
the tracks few hundred feet north
of the railway crossing. The accident
took place at the culvert 800 feet north
of the crossing and is the second fatal
accident to take place at practically
the same point within a year. The
bodies of the two men were removed
to the Miller and the Hansen morgues.
A jury was called and an adjournment
taken until Thursday at which time it
is expected that the members of the
crews in charge of the train will be
here to give evidence.
The accident caused great excitement
among the Polish people of the city as
both of the dead men were well known
among these people.
The three men in the party were en-
ployed at the Allen tannery, but they
had not worked on Monday on account
of the fact that Keusta had not been
in good health. Just before the acct
dent they had started to go to the house
to the north of the Middle street cross
ing and they were walking along the
tracks. The passenger train was com
ing from the north at high rate of
speed and the men engaged in CONVEX
sation had paid little heed to the other
track. They stepped out of the way
of the passenger train and all three
stepped over to the other track. 1t is
a mystery that all three of them were
not killed but Karnoto was not in any
way injured.
Nadolsky who was but twenty years
of age was found some distance from
the track. He had q great koie Is
his head and several bones had been
broken but it was seen that he was
still alive and an ambulance was called

Many Kenosha People Join
in Observance of the Day
Carnations in Evidence
N. ". A. HAVE PUBLIC SERVICE

Following the suggestion of the Mod
ern Woodmen of America, the Grand
Army of the Republic, and other or
CARNATIONS, the people of Kenosha
generally observed Mothers Day. on
Sunday and thousands of people in the
city wore carnations 'Fpink and
"white" in honor of mothers living
and dead Florists in the city declare
that there never was such a demand
for flowers in the city and one Main
street dealer sold more than a thousand
carnations during the day. The sale
was not limited to carnations as both
women and men wore roses and other
flowers and the parade along Main
street in the afternoon was like floral
parade at Easter.
In some homes in Kenosha the OBJ
servance of the day took another and
practical turn and there were num-
Der of family reunions held at which
sons and daughters living in other
cities came home to pay a personal
tribute to Mother The passing
of the day was noticed at the various
cemeteries about the city and many
graves were covered with flowers as a
result of the day recalling the memories
of "Mothers Dead
The main observance of the day in
Kenosha was under the auspices of the
members of the Pike Woods Camp of
the Modern Woodmen of America and
more than a hundred of the members
of the camp including the members of
the Forester team in full uniform
marched to Park Avenue church where
the special service for the day was
held. The choir Of the church furnish
ed special music for the occasion and
the Rev. Perry Millar, delivered an ad-
dress suited to the occasion. He re-
ferred especial to the mother love and
the strong influence which it had in
forming the characters of men and de-
clared that the strongest trait in the
character of the man was his love of
mother. He declared that the mother
dead was worthy Of his greatest
veneration and that mother living was
entitled to the consideration of every
man. He urged that the teachings of
mothers if strictly followed by sons
and daughters would do much to bring
about better citizenship.
Following the address collection
was taken for the Woodmen Sanitarium
for consumptives at Colorado Springs
and goodly sum was realized.
The observance of the day in Keno
sha was so general that it is certain
that the day will be annually set aside
in Kenosha and that in future years
the celebration will be even a more
noteworthy event.
The day was observed in seven
states of the union under proclamations
of the governors of the state on Sun
day, but no such proclamation was
issued by Governor Davidson.

SENIOR CLASS Tree PLANTED
Arthur Redeem Delivers the "Ivyn
Grafton for Seniors and Miss Edith
Holt Accepts Spade for Juniors At
ter Annual Professional.

Friday, according to the proclama-
ton of Governor Davidson was CAR
Dor Day. and it was generally OBJ
served by the school children of Ke-
nosha. Trees were planted at every
school ground in the city and at some
of the schools movements were set on
foot for the identifying of the school
grounds during the spring months and
it is expected that these movements
will bring something of permanent
nature in connection with the general
move for the improvement of the
grounds about the various school build
ings.
In nearly every school room of the
city a special program was given car
rying out the suggestions of the state
superintendent of schools and follow
ing these entertainments the students
gathered on the school grounds and
with pomp and ceremony set out the
trees which had been furnished by
members of the board of education.
The weather was ideal and the day
was more generally observed than ever
before.
The most noteworthy celebration of
the day was at the Kenosha High
School where the annual professional
was held Early in the afternoon the
students Of the high school gathered in
the assembly room and the proclama-
ton of Governor Davidson was read
and an interesting program of music
and recitations was given after which
the annual professional was held. It
was headed by the members of the
faculty after which the members of
the classes marched in order carrying
their flags and banners. More
than three hundred people were
in the line marching about the build
ings and many people long since out
of high school had gathered on the
north side of the school building where
the annual "Ivy" ceremonies, the first
ceremonies of the commencement sea-
son were held.
The tree was planted by the mem
bers of the senior class and the "Ivy"
Grafton was delivered by Arthur Re-
deem, who in closing turned over the
spade which has been passed from class
to class in the high school for the past
fifteen years, to the members of the
Junior class. The spade bore the
colors Of twelve of the former classes
at the high school. The spade was
accepted for the Juniors by Miss Edith
Holt and the exercises closed by sing
ing Of the school song.
The interest taken in the observance
of the day was greater than in any
former year at the high school. The
work of improving the grounds of the
high school is now we'll under way and
it is expected that each succeeding
class will do something for the per-
manent improvement of the grounds.
Since the last Arbor Day celebration
the new walks had been laid at the
school grounds and many plants and
shrubs had been put in.
