CADDocK Is PARDoNED.
Kenosha Man Serving Ten Year Term
Gets Christmas Present.

Arthur Caddoek, Kenoaha man, who
was serving a ten year term at the
state prison at Waupln following his
pleading guilty to charge of assault
with intent to commit a criminal as
sault, has been pardoned by Governor
McGoyeIn and he was released from
prison on Saturday in time to make it
possible for him to spend Christmas
at his old home. The petition for the
pardon for Caddock was not opposed
by any of the Kenosha county court
officials and there was no opposition
to the petition when Il was presented
to the governor. Caddock was sent
eneed in June of 1907 and he had
served a little over four years of his
long term. In the four years his rec
ord at the prison has been such as to
warrant the belief that he has suf-
fered enough for his crime. During
the entire time lie has not had a sin
gle complaint registered against him.
There are no conditions to the pardon
and it carries with it the restoration
of all the civil liberties OF young
Caddock.

FILES FORMAL COMPLAINT.
Ivan Smith of Salem Objects to Play
full mites of Racine Asylum Man.

Ivan Smith, well known farmer
residing in the town Of Salem near
the village of Silver Lake, has fled
a formal protest against the ,continued
escapes of Rudolph Sehele from the
Racine county asylum for the insane
and has demanded that the county
clerk as a representative Of Kenosha
county take up the matter with the
superintendent of the asylum and in
sist that the man be properly confin-
ed. Smith in his letter to the county
clerk declares that Schele has threat
ened to kill him and that the members
of his family are in constant fear lest
Schele carry out the threat. County
Clerk Jones has sent the letter and all
other facts in connection with the com
plant to superintendent Lewis of the
asylum and it is pretty certain that
Schele will not be given chance to
get away in the future. Schele has
been regarded as harmless by the Ra-
cine authorities and for this reason
he has been allowed to work on the,
asylum farm.
