ITALIAN BADLY INJURED.
Frank Tomasso Cut With Razor at a
Dance and Two Assailants in Jail.

As a result of a fight at an Italian
dance, held at the corner of Market
and Exchange streets Sunday afternoon
Frank Tomasso is at his home on Rock
street suffering from several wounds
while Umberto and Berdinaro Bottino
are in the county Jail awaiting a pre-
lininary hearing on charges of assault
with intent to do great bodily harm.
The Bottino brothers are recent ar
rivals in Kenosha from Italy and Tom
asso has resided in the city for eight
years. Stories of the trouble are de-
cidedly contradictory. Tomasso had
gone to the dance and just after three
O'Clock he became involved in a quar-
rel with the Bottino brothers. It is
alleged that one of the men struck
him over the head with stove poker
while the other welded a razor MAX
ing several bad cuts on the face of the
victim. DR.. McCracken was called to
attend the injured man and it is i'm
possible at this time to tell what the
outcome of his injuries will be. The
two Bottino brothers were arrested
by police officers McClusky and New
house this morning and they will prob
ably be given hearing late this after
noon or Tuesday morning.

ONE man SERIOUSLY INJURED

Two ears of the Kenosha Electric

Majdezski, residing at 466 Grover
street was the most seriously injured
of the passengers. He was standing in
the front platform of the Elizabeth
street car when the bump came and he
was thrown so violently against the
front window of the car that the win

scalp wound. He was taken to the Of

was slightly injured. She was taken
to Kemper Hall in a taxi cab and later
in the evening was able to return to
Milwaukee. General Superintendent

could not be avoided as the brakes
had refused to work. He declared that
the men in charge of the car were in
no way to blame for the accident.

What's the matter; old boy?" he
asked. "Sick?"
The dog seemed to appreciate the

petted him a little more.
"Wait, I'll get you drink" he said.
He went to saloon near by and
returned with a tin basin full Of wa

Democrats Start Work of Re-
organizing for Fight to Be
Made Two Years Later
TO ORGANIZE WHOLE STATE

Although the democratic party met
with defeat in the last election held
in this state, the party leaders will
soon begin an active campaign for the
election to be held in 1912 when they
believe that one Of their party will
occupy the executive mansion at Mad
ison.
Joseph E. Davies, chairman of the
democratic party state central commit
tee, is in touch with all county chair
men and is urging them to maintain
their democratic organizations during
the year and make plans to keep up
interest in the democratic cause dur
ing the interim before the next cam
paign.
More than this, it is planned to have
several democratic speakers in the
state to deliver addresses during the
year and in this way keep up interest
in the democratic situation and in
democratic policies.
The great democratic gains made in
the state this year have encouraged
the democratic leaders over the outlook
for 1912 and it is believed, not only
by Mr.. Davies but by other democratic
leaders, that the democratic party in
Wisconsin have laid splendid foun-
dation for victory in Wisconsin by
the party in 1912.
The bills which have come in for the
campaign show the cost of the demo
cratic campaign to have been little
more than was at first figured and it is
now said the final report will show
the total cost of the campaign to have
been in the neighborhood of $4,000 in
stead of $4,000, as first reported.
It is said in the caucus Of democratic
legislators which is to be held at Mad
ison very soon after the legislature
convenes, the members of the demo
cratic minority at Madison will be urg-
ed strongly to make such record in
the legislature as will give the party
good standing in the state in the
campaign of 1912.

ANSWER GAAsTRA's SUIT.
City Attorney Stewart Makes Denial
Of Charges Made by Contractor.

The city of Kenosha has made a gen
eral denial to charges brought by Dou-
we Gaastra in connection with the
building of the new City Hall in an
answer to the suit brought by Gaastra
IN which the city and the members of
the council are named as defendants.
The suit has been regularly filed in
court and the answer which was signed
by the Mayor and the City Clerk on
Monday evening will be fled this af-
.ternoon. The members of the council
have not filed any answer to the suit
Notwithstanding the fact that they
were all named as defendants in the
action none of them have been served
with the summons in the suit. Until
such service is made the aldermen will
take no steps to defend the suit from
their standpoint. It is now thought
that an effort will be made to force
the aldermen to appear in court.

FRANKIE CoNLEY HOME.
Kenosila Fighter to Leave for New
York Latter Part of the Week.

frankie Conley the Kenosha bantam
weight champion returned yesterday af-
ter his invasion of New Orleans. He is
in great condition and bears no marks
of his recent battle with Abe Attell be-
You'd bruised eye and this is rapidly
rounding into condition. You ought
to see Attell, was the way Conley
put it and he insisted that he had all
the best of the featherweight champion.
Conley will make only short stop in
Kenosha as he has arranged to leave
for New York on Thursday with view
of getting fight with Owen Moran.
Conley believes that he has good
chance to land in the lightweight div
ision and for this reason he is anxious
to get try at Moran who is one of
the leading fighters in that division.
Conley is prosperous, his fights at New
Orleans having been financially sue
cessful.

ON WILD GOOSE CHASE.
kenosha Chief Goes to Hartford But
Finds Wrong People.

Chief of Police Owen O'Hare went
to Hartford, Wis, on Sunday on re
port that the police of that city had
Louis Weaver and Clara Daisy, who re-
Gently disappeared from Kenosha, in
custody there. The trip proved a wild
goose chase as the two people were not
the missing Kenoshans. The suspects
were under surveillance at one of the
hotels at Hartford and when the Chief
took look at them he declared that
they were not wanted in Kenosha and
they were at once released. A warrant
has been issued charging Weaver with
abandonment but as yet the police have
not been able to get any line on him
and the Daisy girl seems to be just as
elusive.

The Situation

One day farmer drove into town
with a load of produce and spent the
rest of the day and part OF the night
with convivial companions. On his
way home he fell asleep, and his
wagon came in contact with tree
by the roadside, startling the horses
into a burst Of speed. They broke
away and went clatterfng down the
road. The farmer slept on. He was
thus found next morning at daylight
by stranger on horseback
"HeIlo!" called out the horseman.
who are you and what are you doing
here?"
The farmer peered up and down
the road in dazed way. We'll he
said. my name is Rogers and I've
lost a blamed fine span of horses.
Then he got down from his seat
and inspected the vehicle. And II !
amt Rogers" he added, I've found

swamped the Lake Geneva team in the
final game Of the high school schedule
played at Rambler Park on Saturday
afternoon the locals winning by a
score of 10 to 0. The Kenosha boys
played straight foot ball and from the

the game with a drop kick from the

Kencsha 10, Waukeg~n 8.

Wards Kenosha Regulars won the
second game of the series with Wauke-
gan at Waukegan On Sunday afternoon
by a score of 10 to 5 and as a result
of this victory it is improbable that
Waukegan will come to Kenosha for
the Thanksgiving Day game and the
Racine team may be substituted for
Waukegan at that time. The game on
Sunday afternoon at Waukegan was
hard battle and the Waukegan kickers
who scored touchdown on fiuke at
the beginning of the game seemed to
have it well in hand. In the last three
minutes of play the Kenosha boys
showed speed and managed to get two
touchdoWns. Johnson carried the ball
.over for the first touchdown and when
the referee was just about ready to
call time Cleary got the ball and made
for the goal for the second touch
down. The Waukegan management de-
clared that the score had not been made
until after time was called but the
referee declared that Kenosha was en-
titled to the touchdown and the game.
The Waukegan players were decidedly
sore over the outcome Of the game and
for this reason it is thought that they
may refuse to come to Kenoshal on
Thursday. The management of the
Kenosha team is not going to take any
chances on the Thanksgiving Day
game and it is certain that team
will be on hand to meet the Kenosha
boys at Rambler Park at that time.

THE CRIPPEN TRIAL.
One Feature of 1t Not CreditabIe to the
English People.

Many of the daily papers in COM
menting on the procedure of the Grip
pen case have, with true British COM
placency, compared the prompt and eff
fective administration of British just
ice with what would have occurred in
similar case in other Countries
France and the United States especial
ly-and have thanked God that we are
not as others are. l have glanced at
most of the papers during the trial and
with one exception, have not seen in
any a word in condemnation of the
manner in which a high court of Grim
ihal justice, presided over by the great
est judge on the bench, engaged in the
most solemn duty that can fall to any
court, was for the time practically con-
verted by those responsible for the
seating arrangements into a theater for
the qualification of the morbid curiosi-
ty of society idlers and prurient women.
Two sittings were held daily and
numbered tickets were issued for re-
served places at each. The majority
of the holders were women who came
in matinee array, loud and pronounced
hats and dresses, carrying their opera
glasses which were freely used, not only
from the rear of the court but
from the front benches, full in the face
of the unhappy prisoner. Actors and
writer's were among the men, possibly
seeking ideas for future use in their
own professions, but with that excep-
ton few, very few, ticket holders can
have been present for any legitimate
object, and even that exception can
scarcely be said to have been a
legitimate object in a court of justice.
The tickets were issued by the city
corporation through their responsible
officers, the sub-sheriffs, and one of
these gentlemen was most active in the
discharge of his duties as host. In or
der that the view should be provided
for some of the women, the tar-the
members of which attended, as it was
right they should and as it was their
undoubted right to do, for profession
al purposes-were relegated into an
obscure corner of the court. Even for
this concession the sub-sheriff before
alluded to audibly took credit to him
self, saying that he had sacrificed his
own friends, but that he would not do
so again. 1t may therefore be assumed
that in future cases the bar will be ex-
cluded and the court reserved for an
audience entirely composed of the same
present instance.
There were many discredtable in
stances of the open qualification of
coming to the dock
side during the intervals and peering at
