SCANDAL OVER GIRL
DRIVES MAYOR AWAY
Peter kroeher, Wealthiest Citizen of
NaperviIIe, ILL.,, Leaves Town
Where He Lived 25 Years

CHICAGO, Feb. 4-The city council
Of Naperville, ILL.,, has formally ac-
cepted the resignation of Mayor Peter
Kroehler, the towns wealthiest citi-
zen, and that incident may mark the
conclusion of his connection with the
community in which he has lived for
twenty-five years.
Gossip over Kroehler's relations with
Miss Grace Hubert, formerly his con-
ffdential stenographer, but now living
in seclusion with her parents at Ber-
wyn is credited with having caused
Kroehler to leave the city in which
he grew to wealth. He has not been
inside its precincts for more than a
week. and his most intimate friends
say that they do not know where he
is. Mrs. Kroehler and her children are
still occupying their fine homestead,
but the report about town is that
Kroehler intends to sell the place and
move to Binghamton, n. Y.
Kroehler, when he moved to Naper-
vile from the east, had no money,
but obtained temporary employment
and took a course in a local business
college. After he had been graduated
he saved enough to buy an interest
in small lounge factory occupying
back room in an old store building.
Almost Immediately he became the
leading spirit in the enterprise, and
as 1t prospered he bought out his part
ner's interests. In few years he had
made enough to build d plant en-
ploying from 300 to 500 men, and his
income was said to be i'll the vicinity
of $4,000 a year. Later he branched
out and built another factory in Bing-
hamton.
Miss Hubert appeared on the scene
about four years ago, when, after her
father had been employed as the fac
tory foreman, she went into Kroehlers s
office as a stenographer Kroehler took
fancy to her, and the result was auto
mobile rides and railroad excursions,
which started gossip.
In the meantime Kroehler continued
to take a great interest in Naperville,
and was the chief promoter in many
improvements He gave literally also
to the Grace Evangelical church, of
which he was a member, to the local Y.
NJ c. A. and to other religious organ
izatlons.
Three years ago he was nominated
for mayor in the face of the talk about
him and Miss Hubert and was easily
elected. A year ago he was again put
on the slate, but, taking cognizance of
the gossip, refused to accept the NOM
ination. He was finally prevailed upon
to run after being assured that there
would be no opposition candidate.
A few weeks ago Miss Hubert's
parents suddenly left Naperville and
went to Berwyn, and the talk about
Kroehler became more open. In the
midst of It Kroehler suddenly sent his
resignation as mayor to the city
council.

SEWER CONTRACTORS
WANT TO GIVE UP JOB
lspecial Correspondence.

'opStldl
LOGAN. Feb. 15-Davis. Heusser
and Co. the contractors who under
took to construct the Logan sewer
system. have been unable to make a
great deal of hcadway with the task
and as other matters are on their
hands, have concluded to throw up the
contract. or rather to turn 1t over to
]. P. O'Neil OF Ogden and pay him a
handsome bonus for taking the job
OF their hands. The consent of the
city council to the change Will have
to be secured of course and IT is likely
that that matter will come up at the
regular meeting on Wednesday eve
ming. The contract price for the sewer
was approximately 100000 and the
work was to have been finished last
fall The contractors ran into bad
dirt and made but little progress. and
with the advent of winter had TO dis
miss large part of their force. and
then ask for an extension of time.
Since then it has been apparent that
the price OF the work was altogether
too low and an effort was made to
get some one to assume the contract,
with the result above started. At pres
cnt there are finished about eight
blocks of the sewer out OF a total of
about so. and members of the city
council say that there has already beef
a loss to the contractors of between
six and seven thousand dollars.
