HAD A FIERCE FIGHT
Ball Players and italians Engage II
Hot Contest on Market Street.

There was a fierce fight in front of
the Hotel Fischer on Market street on
Saturday night between a number of
boys and men who were playing ball
and two Italians. Blood flowed so free
ly that it was reported that one of the
Italians had been killed but this was
not based on facts. One of the Ital-
ians was badly beaten by the men and
boys and Thomas Carr who was one of
the men the ball game had one of
his ears bitten by one of the Italians.
Carr was in court this morning and
pleaded "GFilty" to making 9 dis
turbance onl the street and was fined
81 and costs The Italians did not APP
pear to prosecute Carr this morning
and the fight may have another hearing
in the court before the end of the
week There were a number of other
men injured in the fight but no further
arrests were made. Carr in court in
sisted that he struck the Italian in self
defense.

REMAINS A MYSTERY
Coroner's Jury Fails to Get Facts in
Death of Henry Waterbury.

The coroner s jury called to investi-
gate the death of Henry Waterbury
who was killed on the right-of way of
the Chicago and Northwestern railway
near Pleasant Prairie on Monday morn
ing met on Tuesday evening and re-
turned an open verdict. Not one fact
has been discovered in regard to the
manner of the mans death but it is
supposed that he was struck by some
train. There is no train crew, how
ever, that has any facts in regard to
striking the man and the jury returned
a verdict holding that the mans body
was found along the track and that he
came to his death in manner and at
time unknown to the jury.

JOHN THOM OUT FOR SHERIFF
Democratic Slate Makers Are Still
Busy Changing the Slate for County
Officers and Other Petitions May be
Sent Out.

There has been another twist in the
Democratic slate for county nominal
tions that included a changing about IN
the ranks and Ben deDeimar who was
brought out some time ago as the Dem
ocratic candidate for the office OF coun-
ty clerk is now in the field as a candi
date for the office of clerk of the cir
cult court. Petitions for his nomina-
tion for this Office were sent out on
Monday and are being circulated in all
the wards Of the city and the towns Of
the county. 1t is stated that at the
same time petitions were sent out for
the nomination of W. i. UT well
known among Main street business men
on account of his connection with the
Bell Clothing Company, as candidate
for the nomination for county clerk. 1t
is understood that neither of the men
will have opposition in the primaries
and the county committee has assured
them the nomination. Mr.. deDeimar
| is q conductor on the cars Of the Ken
osha Electric Railway Company and is
better known than any of the other
candidates selected by the Democratic
slate makers. He admits that he is a
Democrat and this must be taken as
proof positive of his political faith.
The biggest surprise among the
Democratic politicians is the fact that
the fight for sheriff has been further
complicated by John A. Thorn taking
out petitions as candidate for sheriff.
These papers were put in circulation on
Monday. Early in the campaign it was
stated that Thorn would be candidate
for the nomination but he failed to en-
ter the field at that time and it was
thought that he had decided not to
make the race The taking out Of the
petitions seems to indicate that he is
in the race to stay. The fight among
the Democrats over a candidate for
sheriff is getting decidedly hot. B. M
Schilz of Wheatland was in Kenosha
on Monday but he declined to even
talk politics and stated that he had not
and was not going to take out petitions
The multiplication of candidates
among the Kenosha Democrats seems tt
be making the field a better one fol
George Kreuscher the one candidate
from the rural districts and Kreuschel
is now being picked as a winner fo1
the nomination. All of the candidates
are busy making the rounds Of the
county and it is the general opinion
among the Democrats that the nomina
tion will go to either Kreuscher, Stab
or McCarron.
City candidates are expecting tht
Democrats in Kenosha to cast as many
J votes as in the city election and coun'
J on the city debating the candidates.

POPULATION indicated $4,000
Report Shows That the Large Increase
in the Number OF Children Will
Make Necessary the Building of New
Schools.

a big growth in the number of child
rem of the school age is shown in the
report Of Clarence Vollmer, who has
just completed the taking of the school
census. The report shows that there
are 6522 children in the city between
the ages of four and twenty years and
316S children who under the eompul-
sorry school laws of the state should at
the present time be attending either
the public or parochial schools of the
city 3G44 children between the ages
of z and II were registered in the var
ious schools last year and the report
shows that more(than hundred child
rem were either incapacitated for school
work or that they were habitual
trlants either with or without the con-
sent of their parents or guardiass. The
report of the census taker would indi
cate that there is demand for better
enforcement of the school laws in re-
gard to children being sent to school.
The advance in the number of school
children during the year is given as
All and this fact shows that there will
be demand for new school building
in the very near future. The school
board counts on one school room for
each fifty students and the increase
would by this measure demand the i'm
mediate erection of an eight room
building if the advance in the number
of children is to be taken care of.
The school census is always taken as
an indication Of the population. The
/ plan adopted IN some aat2ss II 10 count
three people for each child of school
age and such a computation would give
Kenosha. a population of a few under
10000. In the city Of Racine the esti-
mate Of the population was made at
the rate of four to the school child On
this basis the school census would show
the population OF the city of Kenosha
at the present time to be in excess of
10000. The gain in the number of
school children is the largest reported
in the past decade. Last year the school
census showed an increase of but fifty
children over the preceding year.
The third ward remains the banner
ward of the city for school children and
it has 1854 children Of the ages of
from to 90 and 757 between the ages
of z and IA years. The fifth ward is
second with a total of 1880 children of
the school age.
The report of the number of children
by the wards showing the number in
the public and private schools between
the ages of and IA years is given as
follows:

SLATER DECLINES TO RUN


An effort is being made to bring
former City Attorney John G. Slater
out as a Democratic candidate for the
office of state senator and while the
attorney has not as yet entered the
field he is being importuned by leading
Democrats in both Racine and Ken
osha county to enter the race. Yes
terday Attorney Slater received letter
from the chairman Of the Democratic
county committee Of Racine stating
that at meeting Of the leading Demo
Gratis held in Racine on Monday after
noon it was unanimously decided to
ask Mr.. Slater to come out as candi-
date. The letter from Racine assured
to Mr.. Slater the united support of
the Democrats of that county and
later in the day the letter was
supplemented by call from COM
mittee Of Kenosha Democrats who
urged the attorney to act favorably on
the suggestion. Mr.. Slater has already
notified the Racine Democrats that it
will be impossible for him to accept
their call and yet some of the local
leaders of the party think that 1t is
possible that he will change his mind.
IF Judge Slater refuses to become a
candidate there are reasons to believe
that the Democrats will have no candi-
date in the field. Michael Higgins of
Racine who was picked as 9 candidate
week ago has announced that he will
not take out petitions. Before the
name of MIR. Higgins was suggested Mr..
Slater was asked to come into the field.
Higgins finally consented to come in
to the field but this consent was given
only with the understanding that
Thomas NJ Kearney would come out
as a Democratic candidate for con-
gress. Mr.. Kearney was willing to
come out if he was the only candidate
1 in the field but he declined to go into
a primary contest with Attorney Calvin
Stewart Of this city in order to get
the nomination. This decided Higgins
and he has not taken out papers and il
is understood will not. The Democrats
Of the two, counties are very anxious tc
find some one to fill up the ticket BIZ!
|
at the present time it is declared that
they have absolutely no one in sight.

CO. COURTS TEST OF CASE
Miss Elizabeth O'Donnell Also Brings
Action for ST 900 Alleging Neglect of
Company Caused Her Injuries On
July 3rd.

The rights of an automobile in cross
ING the tracks of the Kenosha Electric
Railway company are to be tested IN the
circuit court Of Kenosha county, as a
summons and complaint has been served
on the officials of the company IN two
suits growing out of the injury of Wal
ter M. Burke and Miss Elizabeth
@ 'Donnell who were riding in an au-
tomobile which collided with a car of
the company at the Park street cross
ING of the West Main street line on.
the evening Of July 3rd. In his suit
Mr.. Burke demands damages to the
amount of $4,000 and Miss 0 'Donnell
fixes the amount of her damages against
the company at $1,000. Burke claims
that the automobile was damaged to
the amount of $500. In both com
plants it is alleged that the negligence
of the company officials was the cause
of the accident. It is asserted that the
company was permitting the car to be
operated at high rate of speed, that
no bells were sounded when the car APP
preached the crossing where the acct
dent occurred and that no warning OF
any kind was given to the people IN the
automobile Of their danger. Michael
j. Isermann was injured in the same
accident but he has not as yet started
any action against the company and it
is probable that his actions will be
governed by the result. of the test suits
brought by Mr.. Burke and Miss O'Don-
nell. Ia
Manager S. A. Loughridges held a
conference with sCayanagh & Barnes,
the attorneys in the suits some time ago
and at that time formal demand was
made upon the manager of the company
| for settlement of the claims and his
response was that he would welcome a
| test of the cases in court. Several
times during the past year automobiles
have been struck by cars on the rail-
way and there seems to be some doubt
/ as to the liability of the company. The
manager holds that the electric rail
way company has the right of way on
the streets but the attorneys claim that
there is question as to the right OF
the company to run the cars at high
rate of speed without giving proper
warning to the people using the streets
The suit will probably come up for
trial at the September term of the cir
cult court and if it is decided against
the company it is pretty certain that it
will open the way for further suits
against the company by other automo
/ bile owners whose cars have been hit
by street cars.
Neither Mr.. Burke nor Miss 0 'Donnell
! claim to have been permanently injured
as a result Of the accident but both OF
them were laid up for some time as q
result of their injuries.
