LONG SEEMED DESPONDENT
Dead Man was Found Hanging to the
Peak of the Barn on the Farm Of
B. f. Yule in the Town of Somers
Early This Morning.
(From Fridays Daily.)

Robert Yule aged GA, member of one
of the old pioneer families of Keno
sha county and former resident of
Kenosha. committed suicide by hang
ing himself at the home Of his broth
er, B. T. Yule, in the town of Som
ers at an early hour this morning
hanging himself to the peak of the
barn. The dead body of Yule was
found by B. F. Yule just before five
o clock this morning when Mr.. Yule
went to the barn to take care Of the
horses for the day. The condition of
the body indicated that the unfortu
nate man had been dead for several
hours and it is thought that he hung
himself shortly after midnight.
The dead man had made his home in
Somers for little over a year going
to that town from Oshkosh where he
had made his home with his son Prof
Charles Yule. No cause can be assign
ed for the rash act and relatives of
the dead man believe that he must have
been temporarily deranged at the
time. Mr.. Yule seemed to be in usual
health on Thursday, but for several
days he had appeared Respondent and
the members of the Yule family had
noticed that he had sought to be alone
all the time. However, he ate supper
with the members Of the family
Thursday evening and seemed to be in
good spirits. After supper he took
to his room for the night early in the
evening. Nothing was heard from the
room during the night and the members
of the family did not hear anything
of his slipping out of the house to go
to the barn. The members of the
family were still sleeping when Mr..
Yule found the body.
It is evident that Yule had climbed
to the hay loft of the barn and using
a piece Of rope which had been part
of a hay fork he had formed moose
with which he took his life. On ac-
count of the prominence Of the deceas-
ed in the neighborhood the tragic
death of Mr.. Yule caused a great SEN
sation. Coroner Stanton was notified of
the death of Mr.. Yule early this morn
ing and went out to Somers to hold an
inquest over the remains.
Robert Yule was the son Of the late
Alexander Yule, one of the pioneer
settlers of the county. He was born
in the town of Somers and spent much
of his life in the county. Early in
life he came to Kenosha and later
he removed to Chicago where he re-
sided for a number of years. Domestic
troubles came thick and fast for Mr.
Yule and it is thought that brooding
over these troubles which finally cul-
minated in the divorce courts caused
Mr.. Iule to partially lose his mind
Since retiring from active work several
years ago Mr.. Yule had been tenderlv
cared for by his children, but recently
he decided to return to the old farm
in Somers.
The deceased is survived by three
sons, Prof. Charles Yule of Oshkosh;
Frank Yule of Chicago, and Herbert
Yule of Kenosha.

ELuDEs SEARCH OF POLICE
Talks With Local Minister and Then
Takes Car to Fond du Lac Where
He Declared He Had Friends to
Take Care of Him.

James L. Farr, the Dundee, Scotland.
man, who claimed to be the nephew
of an English Earl and who caused no
end of trouble for Kenosha officials
by his mania for attempting suicide,
bobbed up serenely in Kenosha again
late Saturday afternoon. Just how he
got out Of the Alexian Brothers. hos
pital in Chicago, where he had been
taken by County Agent Jones, is not
apparent. The county official believed
that Farr was in bed and close to
death until this morning when he heard
that Farr had been in Kenosha on Sat
urday.;
Weak and suffering from the effects
of the poison taken in Kenosha more
than ten days ago Farr reached the
parsonage of st. James church just
before four o'clock Saturday afternoon.
He declared 10 Father Smith that he
had left the hospital in Chicago earlier
in the day and was on his way to
Fond du Lac to seek the care of
friends. 1t is supposed that Farr es-
capped from the Chicago hospital when
ho was permitted to go out into the
grounds fol- an airing. His condition
on Saturday was such that Father Smith
at once notified the police office and
efforts were made to find Farr, He,
however, was taking no chances of be-
ing taken back to the county Jail and
although the police searched the city
for hours they found no trace of the
man. Father Smith declared to the
police that Farr was very weak and in
no condition to travel. 1t is thought
that Farr fed from the Chicago hos
pital and managed to catch a car on
the Chicago and Milwaukee road to
get to Kenosha. He had small sum
of money when taken to the hospital.
He informed Father Smith that he was
on his way to Fond du Lac and that
no udu ~ NlTlGuu bn6T6 VINO WAS bu6
owner Of large farm and that he ex-
pected to work on the farm and re-
cuperate his health.
AS soon as it was found that Farr
had left the hospital the officials in
Milwaukee and Fond du Lac were ask,
ed to keep a look out for him as it is
feared that he might make another at
tempt on his life. DR.. Hastings who
treated Farr while he was in Kenosha
asserted that FAIR was in no condition
to be at large and that he feared that
if he secured his liberty he would com.
init suicide.
The officials of this county will make
no effort to have Farr taken back to
Chicago and the officials Of some other
county win be expected to look after
him. No responses have been received
from the letter recently sent to the
mother of the man in Dundee and the
officials believe that the story of the
mother was simply another of Farr Is
efforts to conceal his real identity.

ENTERED CUDAHY MEAT MARKET
Tells Police a Weird Story of Being
Arrested for Burglary and Serving
in the Various State Penal Institu-
tons

An unknown individual, walked into
the police Office on Friday afternoon
and much to the surprise of Chief
| @ Hare and other officials of the force,
he said. Il want to surrender myself
for burglary. / turned little trick
last night and entered the meat mar
ket at the foot of Main street and you
might just as well lock me up. / have
to do this once year and / have the
habit strong The police officers
were a little bit surprised at anything
coming so easy, but Assistant Chief
| Newhouse ambled over to the jail with
| the fellow and he was locked up. Here
he gave his name as Walter Strochein
and his residence as Sheboygan. There
| is no doubt but that Strochein was
the man who entered the Cudahy mar
ket on Thursday evening and he gave
the police some evidence of this fact
by turning over TO them large num-
ber' of postage stamps and number
Of boxes Of pencils which were stolen
| from the meat market. Strochein told
the police that he was passing the mar
ket and saw a chance to enter it and
without waiting took the opportunity.
1t was a weird tale that the man
told the police officers and it is certain
that if what he told is true that he
has the burglary habit. He asserted
to the police that he had been arrested
eight times for burglary. That he had
served term in the state prison at
Waupun, another at the state reforma-
tory at Green Bay and had only re
Gently completed a three months term
in the county Jail at Sheboygan. The
man declared that he did not feel right
out Of jail and that he went into the
Cudahy market in order to have a
chance to get back to familiar scenes
and familiar faces. Strochein seemed
very much in earnest in the telling Of
his story and the police believe that it
| is true. However, the Sheboygan of
fcers have been communicated with
and the local officials are making an
effort to verify the story Of the man.
At the county jail Strochein RECALLED
Turnkey Fonk with the story of his
criminal record and told of how he had
served time in various state institu-
tions. "You see / just have to do
something like this once a year." was
the way he put it to Fonk. After he
was behind the bars Strochein seemed
to be perfectly cheerful and within ten
minutes he was making himself lead
er among the prisoners.
The case is one Of the most unusual
ever found by the local police officers
and they are planning to make an in
vestigation into the case. Strochein
will be given hearing this afternoon,
but he will not be given a trial until
the officers have received an answer to
the communication sent to Sheboygan.
They seem to think that the effort of
the man to break into Jail was little
too open and they think possible that
he may be wanted in some other city
on more serious charge. The man
claims to have a family living in She
boygan.
Strochein was taken before Judge
Randall in the municipal court and
pleaded guilty to charge of burglary
and was sentenced to term of two
years in the state prison at Waupun
late this afternoon.
