Gov. Eberhart manages to get all
the publicity needed to keep his
name before the public without the
trouble or expense of hiring press
agent. The governor goes some
where every week. and last week to
Washington, to put President Taft
wise in the matter of the alarming
drought in the Indian country of
Northern Minnesota. When the idea
was suggested to the governor by an
interviewer, that Senator Eberhart
might be the next transition for his
excellency, it is recorded that the
Minnesota executive looked pleased,
which simple record. without any
accompanying bill of particulars,
prompted columns of opinions pro
and con, in the twin city dailies, as
to whether the governor would be a
candidate against Senator CIapp or
await the expiration of Senator Mel
sons term. As yet no insistent de-
mand appears to be made in any
quarter for the governor to take a
seat in our national house of lords.
Senator Clapp, having been unani-
mously reelected as his own success
sor by the Republicans of Minnesota,
is reported as resting easily.

Now the higher the license fee to

them to rope in many sober lads IN

The first annual charity ball of the
Kenosha Chapter of the Loyal Order
of Mpose was held at the Goldberg
auditorium on Monday evening and it
proved to be one of the most success
full social events of the year in Ken
osha. The big hall had been beauti-
fully decorated for the occasion and
more than thousand people were
present during the evening. Many Wis
ting members of the order came from
other cities to take part in the gay
ieties of the evening. The receipts of
the dance will be used in bringing
Christmas cheer to the poor of Kenosha
and it is certain that the Moose will
be one of the big contributors to the
Christmas charities in the city. The
committee in charge of the big party
are entitled to high praise for its sue

THINK men WERE EXPERTS
Man Who Robbed the Electric Station
Had Been Hanging About the Place
for Two Days Awaiting a Chance to
Flash His Revolver

The police of Kenosha are combing
the city as with a fine tooth comb with
a view of getting some line on the
criminals connected with the recent
daring hold-ups in the city and they are
hopeful that the crusade started will
bring results and that the men guilty
of these daring crimes will be arrested
and convicted. On Saturday and Sun
day half dozen of the suspects were
locked up and the police are looking
into the conditions surrounding the
lives of a score of young men of the
city who wear good clothes and have
money to spend in the saloons without
any visible means of support. It is
believed by Chief O'Hare that the
hold-up of Miss Schroeder at the Flee
trio station on Friday night was not
the work of a Kenosha man but that
some expert hold-up man came to Ken
osha and cleaned up the station and
then managed to get out of the way
before the police could get any clew
to his identity. It has been discovered
that the hold-up of the station was
most carefully planned. The man in
overalls who held the gun when Miss
Schroeder turned over the cash in the
money drawer of the ticket office had
been loafing about the station for more
than day and it is pretty certain
that he was waiting about the station
that he was hanging about the station
hold UP the agent. At the time of the
hold-up the station was deserted. The
police have an excellent description
of the man and of his companion and
they have asked the police in both
Chicago and Milwaukee to make an
effort to find some trace of the two
men and arrest them. The fact that
the men got nothing but money at the
station will make it hard matter to
capture them. Chief O'Hare believes
that the men must have had helpers
in Kenosha who sheltered them after
the robbery of the station and made it
possible for them to keep out of the
way of the police of the city. It is
just possible that the men are still in
hiding in Kenosha. The detectives of
the Chicago and Milwaukee are aiding
the police in every possible manner in
finding clew to the identity of the
two men but these men feel certain
that the men are not the men who have
worked similar hold-ups at other sta
tions on the line

ESTHER BURWELL A VICTIM
Girl is Held Under Aim of Revolver
While Man in the Station is Reliev-
ed of His watch and $35 in Money.
NO Clew Found

The hold-up men who have been
working in Kenosha seem to have NOV
ed down the line little ways and just
after seven o. clock Monday night the
police of Kenosha were advised that a
daring hold-up had been committed at
the fourth station south of Kenosha
on the Chicago and Milwaukee Electric
line. The little station is just south of
Zion City and the manner of the hold
up leads the police to believe that the
crime was committed by the same man
who worked at the Kenosha station
on last Friday evening. In the little
station at the time the crime was COM
mitted was Miss Esther Burwell of
Kenosha and a Waukegan man whose
name were not learned by the police.
Miss BurWell and the man were wait,
ing for a north bound car when a
masked man entered the station and
presenting a, revolver demanded that
the two throw up their hands. He
gave his attention to the man and be-
gan to search his pockets while Miss
BurWell began to shout for help. The
highWayman secured q watch and $35
from the man and just at that time
the whistle of the oncoming car was
heard and the man rushed from the
station and, escaped in the darkness.
AS soon as the car arrived the crew
went out and made search in an eff
fort to find some clew which would aid
in locating the daring criminal. Miss
BurWell was so frightened by. the ex-
peTience that she was unable to give
any adequate description Of the man.
The police in Kenosha were notified
of the hold-up and messages were sent
to Racine and Waukegan and close
watch was kept for any suspects but
no arrests have as yet been made. The
police officials here believe that the
man who committed the crime Monday
night was the same man that worked
at the station here. Officials all along
the line have been asked to make
every possible effort to get some clew
to the identity Of the man.

Number of Fatalities in the
Northern Woods During
Hunting Season was Ia
MANY VIOLATE GAME LAWS

Fourteen fatalities. resulting from
careless or accidental discharge Of fire
arms in the hunting camps of Wiscon-
sin, compared with thirty three in
1909, is the record appearing in the
Office Of Game Warden g. w. Ricke-
man. That the greatly reduced num-
Der is at least partly due to his sug-
gestion that hunters wear red caps
while in the woods, is the belief of
Warden Rickeman, though he has no
faith that this practice will entirely
do away with the slaughter of men
by needless, amateur hunters. How
ever. the record is gratifying in that
it shows great reduction, while, the
number of hunters was the largest in
the annals Of the department..
For the week ending today, Warden
Rickeman reports twentyfour convic-
lions, for violations of fish and game
laws, With $690.45 in fines resulting
and c. sts $202.05, making total of
$S92.50. Receipts from the sale of con
fscated paraphernalia were $12s.54
Warden Rickeman spent consider
able time during the deer season in the
woods of northern Wisconsin looking
after the work of his deputies, and
says that from what he learned he is
satisfied that there has grown up even
among residents and local hunters, a
wholesome regard for the fish and
game laws; that even though the rec
ords show larger number of CON
victions, there really are fewer vio-
iations and that more general dispo-
sition prevails among the people to
cooperate in the work of fish and
game conservation.

Lake Michigan Sanitary Com
mission Discusses Pollution
of Lake at Meeting
WAUHEGAN FINDS 4 REMEDY

The best sanitary methods of pre-
venting Lake Michigan from being pol
luted by factory waste and domestic
sewage from streams flowing into it
were discussed at meeting of the
Lake Michigan Water Commission held
in Chicago Saturday.
Commissioners from Illinois, Wiscon-
sin, Indiana and Michigan were pres
emit, as was also a representative of
the United States government. An
experimental station that had been in
stalled in the plant about year ago,
consisting of various filtration beds
and settling tanks, was inspected by
the commissioners. and their observa-
tions will be contained in the annual
report of the commission, to be made.
shortly.
One of the principal topics under
discussion was the Calumet river and
adjacent streams. Sanitarians were
engaged early in the year to make a.
thorough investigation of the stream
and to report to the commission as to
the amount of sewage flowing into
the lake and the best means of pre-
venting this. J. III. Brewster, chemist
for the Indiana state board of health,
spent four months on the river in a
motor boat making tests of the water
and observations of conditions.
1.-THE septic action of the sewage
emptied into the Calumet river from
factories situated along it.'' Mr.. Brew
ster said, "prevents the sewage from
travelling very far from the point at
which it is emptied. Ny observations
were that the heavier particles in the
water were carried to the bottom of
the river bed, and while small por-
tion of suspended matter is found con-
stantly in the water, it is not carried
very far. /"
II. E. Barnard of the Indiana state
board of health defended the stream
by declaring that it was self-purify
ing. t' No.
"The Calumet can be likened to an
immense TANK he said. following Mr..
Brewster's talk. Sedimentation caus-
es the sewage to disappear rapidly.
The stream is not self flowing one,
and T think we can be assured that it
does not contaminate the lake to a
dangerous degree
