Because of their representation in the
administration and the council, the
brewery agents accused Of retailing Ii
quors without the formality of tax
ing out license and paying the city
for the privilege as other men in the
retail trade must, have apparently lit
tie to fear from the city government
and they would have at least an equal
chance to win in any fight the saloon
men might start against them in the
courts or anywhere else, but when the
federal government begins to take an
interest in their affairs it is time for
them to go to cover and be quick
about it. Neither fear, favor, or af-
lection moves the revenue officers
when they are engaged in enforcing
the revenue laws and collecting the
money due the government as license
fees and if after an investigation of
the local situation, the government
agents decide that the excise laws
have been violated, prosecutions will
follow as matter of course Dodging
the payment of any fees due the gov
eminent, even if there is no intent to
defraud the government and the offense
was committed through ignorance, has
been found to be pretty serious
thing by a good many men before this
and is an entirely different matter
from disputing over the payment of
license fees with the retail liquor deal
ers or the city government. The re-
tail liquor dealers and those of the
city officials interested in the collec-
tion of the license money due the city
can safely rest their case and base
their future actions against the beer
agents and the "traveling saloons .
on the decision of the representatives
of the collector Of internal revenue for
the federal officials will surely have
every license due the government paid
or force the men who refuse to pay
to stand trial. among the men who
have given much time to the study of
the license question the opinion has
prevailed for some time that the city
should collect license from every
man in the liquor business who is
obliged to get government license.
In that way the city would be sure
of getting all that was coming to it
for the government records are com
plete and accurate.

Three Men Have Narrow Es-
cape When Two Autos Col
Tide on Rowland Ave.
BOTH AUTOMOBILES DAMAGED

Narrow escapes were the feature of
an automobile collision which occurred
on Rowland avenue between Garden
and Jenne streets on Saturday evening
when George Milne and 0. H. Watkins,
both driving five passenger cars, col
hded head on Both cars were wrecked
and all three of the men riding in the
two cars were thrown over the wind
shields into the road, but none of them
was seriously injured. H. G. Eyer,
who was in the car with Watkins, was
slightly bruised and cut but he was
able to walk home. The cause of the
collision is not apparent Milne was
driving his car from the south and was
alone. Watkins and Eyer were COM
ing from the north. Both of the ears
had a full quota of lights burning, A
yellow dog which ran between the two
cars seems to be bearing the greater
part of the blame for the accident and
it is just possible that both drivers
were attempting to avoid the dog when
the collision took place. The WatIin s
car got a little the worst of the ac-
cident. It was thrown off the road
against tree and had the frame badly
twisted and the entire front end of
the car broken. Milne IS car escaped
with a broken wind shield, two bent
mud guards and broken axel The po-
lice were called to investigate the acct
dent and later the cars were taken to a
garage for repairs. 1t is probable that
the blame for the accident will be set
tied with a suit in court. The fortu-
nate part of the collision was that all
three men escaped serious injury.

MOTHER NARROWLY ESCAPES
Mother and Little Child Were Driving
to Twin Lakes When Horse Ran
Away and Both Were Thrown Out,
the Child's Skull Being Fractured.

May Josephine Jepson, the six
months old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Benjamin Jepson of the town of Ran
dali, was killed and Mrs. Jepson, the
mother Of the child, seriously injured
in runaway accident in that section
of the county just after eight O'Clock
Friday evening. The mother and child
were thrown from the vehicle in which
they were riding and the skull of the
child was fractured. It died before
physician could be called
The Jepson family reside on farm
just short distance from Twin Lakes
and just before night Mrs. Jepson had
taken an old family horse and had
started to drive from the farm to Twin
Lakes to do some shopping. She had
gone only few rods when the aeci-
dent occurred. While driving along a
lane on the farm which led to the main
road the horse became frightened at a
flying piece Of paper and started to
run. Mrs. Jepson had the little child
in her arms and she was unable to con
troll the frightened horse and the horse
jumped to the side of the road and
mother and child were thrown out to
the side Of the road. The child was in
it's mothers arms when the two struck
the ground but they were thrown with
such force that the head of the little
girl struck the ground and there was a
great fracture at the base of the skull.
Mrs. Jepson was rendered unconscious
but her moaning attracted the attention
of men at the house and they hurried
down the lane and found the woman
and her baby.
Both were carried to the house. The
child was still alive when they reach
ed the house and one of the men was
hurri9dly sent for a physician, but the
child died before the doctor arrived.
Mrs. Jepson was terribly bruised but
she had no broken bones. The first
report Of the accident in Kenosha stat
ed that both the mother and the child
had been instantly killed. The case
was reported to Coroner Stanton and
he went out to Randall just before
midnight and made an investigation of
the circumstances and decided that it
would not be necessary to hold an in
quest over the child. Later he signed
The death certificate giving the cause
of death as a fracture Of the skull.
Today it is reported that Mrs. Jepson
is suffering terribly from the shock of
the death of the child and her own
injuries and she may not survive.
The old horse which caused the acci-
dent was found grazing in the field a
few feet from the place where the child
had been killed.
The funeral Of the child will be held
from the Catholic church at Richmond.
I'LL, on Sunday afternoon with inter
ment there.

.DEF|ES COURT RULE
G. NJ. Ferguson Takes Chance
of Contempt Charges by
Marrying Here Saturday
WAS HERO OF TRIAL DIVORCE

The marriage of George M. Fergu,
son, well known Chicago broker, and
Miss Helen Wood of New York, which
was celebrated in Kenosha on Satur-
day afternoon, promises to bring new
matrimonial tangle. Ferguson was di-
vorced from his former wife, Florence
Lawrence Ferguson, in the circuit court
in Chicago in April of this year and
at the time Judge McSweeney handed
down the decision granting the decree
a prohibition was made against the re-
marriage of the principals within a
year.
The Fergusons had been much in the
lime light. The marriage of Ferguson
to Florence Lawrence had. been an I'M
usual one. Before marriage Miss
Lawrence who was the daughter of a
wealthy Chicagoan, insisted that she
be permitted to attend cooking school
in order to be better prepared to take
up her work as a housewife. The mar
riage did not prove a happy one and
after a short married life Mr. and Mrs.
Ferguson arranged for ''trial di-
vorce The husband went to live at
the Sherman Hotel and the wife was
living with her parents. Miss Wood
had not figured in the case in any
way When Ferguson came to Kenosha
on Saturday for his second marriage he
brought a copy of his divorce decree
and County Clerk Jones called his at
tention to the fact that it provided
against a re-marriage of FERGUSON
within year but the broker declared
that he was willing to take his chances
on being charged with contempt of
court in Illinois. There is no provision
in the Wisconsin statute which prevent
ed the issuance of the license and Clerk
Jones issued it. The broker and his
bride were afterward married by the
Rev. E. T. Farrill.
Ferguson gave his age as 40 and that
of his wife as 20. It seems certain
that the pair are not planning to go to
Illinois to live as they left Kenosha
bound for Milwaukee and expected to
reach New York by round about way.
The first Mrs. Ferguson who was
the heroine of the divorce experiment,
declined to discuss the second marriage
of her husband when seen in Chicago
on Sunday and it is limited that she
may follow his footsteps and come to
Kenosha to wed within short time.

DoRR WINS FLAG TOURNEY.
Plants Flag in Bunker on Nineteenth
Course and Takes Silver Trophy.

Course and Takes Silver Trophy.
Roy K. Dorr, planted his flag in the
bunker on the nineteenth course on the
links of the Kenosha Country club on
Saturday afternoon and with two
strokes better than had been given him
by the handicap committee, won the
first flag tournament held under the
auspices of the Kenosha Country club.
The winner had been given total of
IS strokes for the IS holes and he
finished the full round in SO. His two
added strokes took him to the bunker
where his flag still waves in token of
his victory. More than forty players
were entered for the flag tournament
and when the sun down closed the
fight for the trophy the links along
the last three courses were pretty well
dotted with flags. Most of tie players
managed to reach the seventeenth
course and few came within a few
inches of making the eighteen holes
within the number of strokes set by
the handicappers. The match proved
to be one of the most interesting of
the year on the links and it is not
improbable that another flag tourney
will be arranged for before the season
is over.

According to a report which has just
been made by the United States office
of public roads there are now either
planned or under construction no less
than $4,000 miles of public highways.
Some of these of course, may not be
completed; some may be abandoned !;
but the fact remains that the good
roads movement is under way most de-
cidedly.
Projects include such ambitious I'M
dertakings as continuous highways
from Montreal to Miami, Fla, from
Vancouver, B. G. to Tijuana, Mexico;
from Cumberland, Nd, to Tacoma,
Wash; from Washington to jackson
vile, Fla, through the capitals of the
seaboard states; from Niagara to New
Orleans; from Morehead City, N. c., to
Paint Rock, Tenn; besides may other
roads in Delaware, Texas, Iowa, Mis-
souri,, and Tennessee. Two roads are
named for Lincoln, the Lincoln mem
orial, from Washington to Gettysburg,
and the Lincoln Way, from Louisville
to Nashville. The Clay-Jefferson mem
orial proposes to unite Niagara Falls
with New Orleans by way of Zanes-
vile, O., Maysville, KY, Nashville,
Tenn, and Meridian, Miss.
1t will be seen that no mention is
made of any roads in Illinois, Indiana,
Michigan, or Wisconsin. There are
good roads association in these states,
but are they doing anything Tribune.

There is no disposition on the part
of the Kenosha county officials to con-
done the crime of arson, but for all
that there is not likely to be very
strenuous opposition from this county
to the pardon of one Griffin, an ap-
plication for which has just been made
to the governor, who was sent up for
having set fire to the resort known as
the -Four Corners. = The. worst feat
ure of the case was that Griffin decid-
ed to be the "goat" for the whole
crowd implicated in the crime, but for
all that it rid the county of one of the
worst plague spots ever maintained
within its borders.
