OFFICERS FAIL TO ARREST HIM
Wilson Who Was Acting as Special
Agent For the Northwestern Mutual
Cashes Check at Kradwell Drug
Store

Late Thursday afternoon warrant
was issued in the municipal court for
the arrest Of G. E. Wilson, a special
agent of the Northwestern Mutual In
surance company Of Milwaukee charg-
ing him with uttering bogus check.
The check was passed at the Kradwell
Drug store on November 3rd but the
facts in regard to it were not diseov-
cred until the check was returned from
the bank on Thursday afternoon. Will
son has been in Kenosha for the past
three months and in that time he had
made many friends in the city A hale
fellow well met he was mingling with
the best people of the city and the
announcement that he was charged
with the issuance of a worthless check
caused something of sensation. The
check was for the sum of SIS and was
issued on the Manufacturers Bank of
Racine and signed by W. A. McCaugh-
~ VAIN SoOAAS1ttA CSsVilU VI G4kC
AS Wilson was known to have been
employed by the company the men in
the store made no protest against cash
ing the check and it remained in the
cash drawer for some time before it
was cashed. General Agent McCaughey
came to Kenosha Thursday afternoon
and declared that the check was for
gerry He made no offer to settle up
but on the other hand directed the
manager of the KradwelI store to Sc
cure a warrant for the arrest of Will
son. The warrant was turned over to
Sheriff Gunter but no trace of Wilson
can be found. He is thought to have
been in Kenosha On Wednesday and
efforts are being made to locate him
at one of the smaller cities in Illinois
OF Wisconsin. Friends of Wilson claim
that there must be mistake in regard
to the check but the general agent in
sists that he should be prosecuted.

NOT THE RIGHT PLUME.
Gwendolyn Barrymore, Former Actress
Arrested in Chicago Secures Release.

Gwendolyn Barrymore an actress,
formerly in Kenosha was arrested in
Chicago on Wednesday evening charged
with having stolen q plume and a muff
from Kenosha house in which she
Ilived while she was playing an engage
ment at one Of the Kenosha theatres.
The girl from the first protested her
innocence and demanded that the ac-
cusers be brought to Chicago. The
Kenosha people who had asked for the
arrest of Gwendolyn went to Chicago
and failed to identify the alleged stol-
en- property. The actress was released
and she is now talking of bringing an
action for damages. The actress is
known to many people in Kenosha.

Kenosha Chapter of Daught-
ers of American Revolu-
ton to Have Meeting
WOMEN TO ATTEND

Kenosha has been selected for one
OF the most noteworthy gatherings of
women OF Wisconsin to be held in the
year 1911 as at the closing sessions of
the annual state conference of the
Daughters of the American Revolution
held in Milwaukee on Wednesday il
was decided that the next state con-
ference should be held in Kenosha in
November, 1911. At this conference
every chapter of the organization in
the state will be represented and the
Kenosha chapter has been highly hon
! ored in being accepted as the chapter
to entertain the state conference.
The meeting at Milwaukee was one
of the most interesting ever held by
the Wisconsin chapter. The attendance
was the largest in the history of the
society and many important movements
to cherish patriotism among the women
and children of the state were started
at this meeting. The meeting closed
with a luncheon at the Hotel Pfister
| at which many of the most prominent
women of the state were in attendance.
The Kenosha chapter of the Daugh-
ters is one of the strongest organize,
tions in the state and this is the first
time that it has extended an invitation
to the state conference. The delegates
from the Kenosha chapter who attend
ed the state conference included, Mes
danes George F.. Adams, R. E. Mailer,
A. Z. Buckmaster, William H. Purnell,
Harry SkinIle, Fred Perkins and Chas.
Ruggles.
Committees will be named by the To-
cal chapter within short time and
these committees will cooperate with
the state organization in making plans
for the meeting in 1911.

VOTERS SHUN PLACE IN PARADE
Three Bands and Candidates in Car
riages Make Up the Celebration But
NO One Carries the Torches Pro
videds

The grand celebration planned by
the democracy came off on scheduled
time Thursday night bat it failed to
bring back memories of the last cele-
bration at the time of the election OF
Cleveland for his last term as Presi-
dent. Assemblyman-elect Scholey and
his companions on the victorious tick
ct did their share and three of the six
bands promised turned out to march
with the parade but the enthusiastic
and excited citizens on foot and on
horse failed to materialize and the
procession which started from Market
Square just after eight O'Clock was
made up largely of the candidates and
the members of their families and the
musicians who had been employed or
had proffercd their services for the
occasion. 1t was a joyous occasion
at that, and came as an interesting
little break in the monotony Of the
day. A wagon load of torches had
been provided for the faithful to join
in the parade but with the mercury
lowering about the freezing point the
enthusiasm Of the rank and file was
frozen up and the candidates were al
lowed to conduct their own celebra-
ton. The parade took in most of the
city and there were large crowds all
along the line of march and in many
places the candidates were received
with hearty cheers.
The big feature was the bon fire on
Market Square and this was of the old
fashioned kind. 1t looked like band
of college students celebrating a foot
ball victory and when the fire was at
it's height some joker was mean
enough to turn in the fire alarm and
this attracted the people away from
the celebration. Alderman STERN
should not be forgotten in speaking
of the celebration as he falflled his ac-
customed place as Marshall of the par
ade and had no trouble in getting the
various organizations to take any old
place in the line.
The speaking that had been planned
ffor the celebration was eliminated as
the weather was too cold to permit of
oratory and Mayor Scholey desired to
take no chances on injuring his voice
as he will certainly need it as the
leader of the minority in the legisla-
ture. The election can now be CON
sidered as closed incident.

ROUTE IS LAID OUT
Course for Annual Evening
News Road Race Will Be
a. Little Over Z Miles
MANY ENTRIES BEING RECEIVED

The route for the annual Evening
News road race to be run on Thanks-I
giving Day has been formally deter
mined on and the course this year will
be little shorter than it was last
year. This change was made on ac-
kcount of the short time left for train
ing. On Thursday Manager Fogwelp
and others interested in the race cook
a trip over the various roads in an
automobile and after looking over all
of the proposed courses decided to
adopt a course to the south of the city,
The course is just seven and quarter
miles in length or more than q mile
shorter than the course laid out for
last year. 1t has been arranged so as
to remove as far as possible the chance
of the runners being stopped by rail
way trains. The roads selected will all
| be in good condition on Thanksgiving
Day barring stormy weather AS most
!,ef the roads are sand and macadam
roads it is expected that even with a
little rain the roads would be in good
condition for the runners. The route
as laid out is as follows:
Starting at the Y. NJ G. A. and go
ing south and west around the north
end of the park and along Prairie
avenue to Ashland avenue; straight
south one mile on Ashland avenue to
Selma avenue, west one-half mile on
Selma avenue to Rowland avenue,
south two and three quarters miles on
| Rowland avenue to the Stahl cross
half mile to Ashland avenue, north on
Ashland avenue to Selma avenue, east
on Selma avenue to Butchers corners
on Park avenue and north on Park
avenue to the Y. M. G. A. building.
Along all the roads selected there is
a good path which may be used by the
runners in case of bad weather and the
portion of the route within the limits
of the city is nearly all over paved
streets.
Physical Director Fogwen of the
Y. M. G. A. has already been given
assurance that there will be long en-
try list for the race and some of the
fastest runners in this section are ex-
pected to enter. Long distance running
in Kenosha is perfected far beyond the
other parts of the state and the Ken
osha runners should have no trouble
taking all three of the trophies offered
for places III the race. This year the
cups will be considerable larger and
more elaborate than last year.

HANDSOME CUPS ORDERED.
Trophies for the Evening News Road
Race to be Largest Ever Offered.

The trophies which are to be pres,
ented by the Kenosha Evening News
for the annual road race to be run on
Thanksgiving day have been ordered
and they will be On display within the
next few days. The trophies will be
beautiful of design and the largest
trophies ever offered for an athletic
event in Kenosha. 1t is planned to have
the cups on display for full week be-
fore the race. Maps of the course will
be out on Monday and every runner in
the city will be given chance to train
over the actual route of the race for
a full week before the starter S gun is
fired
Entries for the race are now coming
in rapidly and Manager Fogwen is
hopeful that every distance runner in
the county and many from other parts
of the state will be entered for the
race

CERTIFICATE FOR HASTINGS.
County Clerk Jones Sends Out Certi.
ficates to ali Successful Candidates.

County Clerk Russell III. Jones has
issued a certificate of election to Hen
ry j. Hastings who defeated Robert
Verne Baker for District Attorney by
four votes at the recent election. Dis
trict Attorney Baker declared that he
would not push any protest against the
issuance of the certificate as he held
that any action he might take to con-
test the election of Attorney Hastings
would be matter for the courts and
not for the official canvassing board.
He declared that the issuance of the
certificate would take away none of
his rights to make contest if he saw
fit to do so. Friends of the District
Attorney state that the contest is very
unlikely.

May GUST PURTELL.
State Fire Marshal Slated for Retire
ment by New Administration.

Political prophets at Madison are
predicting the retirement of State Fire
Marshal Thomas NJ Purtell with the
organization of the new state admins
tration for while the term of the State
Fire Marshal has not expired it is de-
clared that law will be enacted by
the new legislature abolishing the office
of State Fire Marshal and Purtell with
it. It is claimed that Purtell has not
been any too friendly to men connect
ed with the incoming administration
and for this reason he is slated for re-
tirement. Fire Marshal Purtell has
been spending a lot of time in Kenosha
recently and it is not improbable that
he will go into business in this city
when he is released from his Madison
Office.
