Has any one a record to beat Il?
Very few people realize the phenomenal
growth of the popularity OF motor boating
for sport pleasure. and commercial pur-
poses. a few years ago the general public
was very skeptical as to the utilization OF
the internal combustion engine for marine
purposes. But since the same has become
an accepted fact and way beyond the ex-
perimental stage. thousands OF persons
have found that the pleasures OF motor
boating excel anything along this lire.

sued recently at the Pieree-Arrow Motor

hereafter all parts such as castings and

OF certain Buffalonian
1t came TO the ears Of one OF the Off
Gals OF the company a short time ago
that a Pierce-Arrow motor was for sale
by man in no wise connected with the
motor car business in Buffalo. It was
thought decidedly worth while 10 investi-
gate the matter. and this investigation de-
velOped that the motor was one almost
entirely built Of parts that had been re-
jected at the plant and sold TO a dealer in
scrap. a man with some knowledge Of
motor car assembly had bought these
parts from the scrap man. done some ma
chine work on them. and given his prod
uct the high-grade label Many OF the
parts used were but a little more than
thousands Of an inch out Of accurate
measurement. and. although they were
serviCeable for the purpose for which they
were used. had not been up TO the COM
panys requirements and were accordingly
thrown aside. The factory took the nee
essary steps to stop the sale Of the mo-
tor. and these were followed. at once by
the order 10 break up all scrap, a thing
that Is expected to make another such ex-
perience impossible.

Here's what looks like the slow-speed
automobile record of the world:

he could run his car for any distance on
high speed at two miles an hour without
slipping the clutch or stopping the mo-
tor. Under the conditions he was not
permitted TO touch his clutch pedal at all.
Mr.. Galloway succeeded in running a
full mile under these conditions in thirty
two minutes.
But for the fact that this record is
vouched for by many people who wit
messed the feat. It would seem almost
impossible. Even the advertisements of

SOUGHT REFUGE FROM STORM
Section Gang crawls Under Freight
Cars to Get Out Of the Rain and
Are Caught When Engine Backs Cars
On Switch.

One man was killed and another
severely injured just before 4 clock
Saturday afternoon in a railway acct
dent at the Simmons switch two miles
north Of the city along the Northwest
ern line. The dead man was
sominestinino Furrpggi residing on Ed
ward street and the injured man was
Frank Castagnaro residing at 1917
Pearl street, Furruggi was instantly
killed, his head and shoulders being
crushed under the wheels of a heavy
car. The other man suffered a fracture
of the left leg and was severely cut
about the head and face but he will re-
cover. He was taken to the Kenosha
hospital and it is said that he is out
of danger. The accident was one of
the most unusual ever reported in local
railways circles and the death of the
man came indirectly as a result of the
heavy down pour of rain which broke
the drought in the town of Somers- on.
Saturday afternoon. Furruggi and FIVE
other men were employed as section
men by the company and they had been
engaged in some construction work
along the tracks near the switch. When
the thunder storm came up and the rain
began to fall in torrents the men ran
to the switch and got under box car
for protection. A long line of ears was
stretched along the switch and the men
were under one of the last cars in the
row. They had been under the car but
a. few minutes when a north bound
freight brought in lot of cars loaded
with tan bark and these were thrown
on the switch for storage pending the
unloading of the cars iii the yards of
the N. r. Allen s Sons company. The
cars were backed down on the south
end. of the switch and when they struck
the other cars the six section men
scrambled to get from under the cars.
Fonr of the men escaped uninjured but
Furruggi and Castagnaro were the last
to seek to get from, under the car.
Furruggi was knocked down and one of
the trucks passed over the top portion
of his body completely severing the
head from the body The wheels pass
ed over the left leg of the other man
crushing it.
AS soon as possible Agent Parr was
notified of the accident and with cor
oner Frank Andre he hurried to the
scene of the accident. The injured man
was taken in an ambulance to the Ken
osha hospital and the dead man to the
Miller & Stanton morgue. A jury was
summoned on Saturday night and after
viewing the remains the inquest was
adjourned for ten days on account of
the fact that Coroner Andre had plan
ned to leave on Sunday for Detroit to
attend the Elles reunion.
The dead man W, forty years of age
and married and had been a resident of
Kenosha for several years. None of
the other men were injured in the acct
dent

CONES ARE UNDER BAN
Government Inspectors Seize
Large Quantities of Chill
dren's FaYorite Luxury
STATE AIDS INVESTIGATION.

The seizure of 10000 ice cream cones
at New York Saturday developed the
fact that the government is conducting
a national crusade against Impurities in
this luxury Of childhood The inquiry
includes Kenosha and practically every
city in the country. Thousands Of cones
are sold in this city weekly, during the
summer.
The confscated goods, supposed to be
"pure pastry" are said to contain
boric acid, and the quantity was unus-
ually large because the cones were in
tended for the hot climate Of New Or
leans. They were the product of the
Consolidated Water company Of New
York.
DR. Wiley, chief of the bureau of
chemistry at Washington, is responsible
for the seizure. The manufacture Of ice
cream cones is a comparatively new in
dustry, and little attention was paid to
the product until recently, when the
federal expert s attention was attract.
ed by the injurious effect the alleged
poisonous composition had on child in
an eastern city DR.. Wiley was as
tonished by the result of his analysis
and at once issued orders to all his sub
ordinates throughout the country to in
vestigate.
Boric acid, used to preserve the
cones from season to season, was found
in large quantities during the prelim-
mary chemical tests, which caused the
sweeping investigation. A, large amount
Of poisonous artificial coloring matter
also was found, and some of the gela-
tin was nothing more than ordinary
glue, it is said. The combination inter
fcred with digestion, and, if in sufi-
GENTLY large quantities, would cause
commissions to infants.
The ingredients of the cones vary,
but the composition commonly used is
made up Of gelatin, saccharine, flour,
and coloring matter to give the APP
pearance Of eggs having been used. If
the gelatin is pure and the coloring
matter is harmless, and no chemical
-preservative is used, no fault is found
with the cones.
The state pure food commission is
collaborating With the government in
spectors but so far nothing has been
found to seize in Wisconsin.
According to federal inspectors, DR..
Wiley found some of the so-calIed gela-
tine sufficiently raw to warrant its
classification as glue. Some of the col
oring matter was found to be Martius
yellow poisonous composition which
gives the yellowest yellow known.

Promoters of New Electric
Line in Lake Co. Receive
Liberal Subscriptions
MAY AFFECT KENOSHA TRADE

That trade Of Kenosha merchants is
threatened by the projected electric line
west of Waukegan there can be little
doubt for it is the intention to extend
this line into Waukegan and then north
ward into Kenosha county tapping the
lake regions This line is coming along
rapidly and the enthusiasm shown by
the property owners along the proposed
route is such as to practically insure
the completion of the first section Of
the line. Once that is done it will be
paying proposition for the road to
extend into Waukegan and this county.
The same men who are now pushing. this.
line at one time were interested in a
plan to build west from Kenosha but
were induced to abandon that project
and start in Lake county by the far
sighted business men Of Waukegan.
The people along the route are coming
to the front with liberal subscriptions
to stock in the construction company to
build the line.
The mass meeting at Wauconda Sat
urday evening to boom the new electric
road was attended by 100 persons
and never has mass meeting il Lake
county produced such interest and en-
thusiasrh. The outcome Of the meeting
was that the road is now absolutely as
sured and work on the surveys is to
start next week. The Palatine. band
furnished music for the occasioon i.
The entire hundred thousand dollars
which the promoters, r. D. Wynn and
J. X. Orvis started to raise, has been
subscribed and that is all that IS neces-
sary to insure the road.
The different communities have sub
scribted as follows:
Palatine, $4,000.
Wauconda, $4,000.
Lake Zurich and vicinity, $4,000.
Mr.. Wynn told the people that the
survey will start next week, and that
actual construction Of the road is to
begin this fall without any question.
He stated that arrangements have been
made to secure the power from the
North Shore Electric which crosses the
route at Lake Zurich.
The subscription blanks Of the pro-
motors show that the subscribers pay 20
per cent now; 90 more}when one-fourth
Of the grading as aAiaAed; 20 more
when gradingi is finished; 20smore when
ties and rails are delirered; 20 more
when the road is finished
b The promoters are most enthusiastic
over the outlook.
