LIBERTY FOR XMAS
-
Judge Randall Shows Xmas
Spirit in Dealing With
VIM. Coblentz, Jr.
PLEADS GUILTY TO FORGERY

The Christmas spirit was in evidence
IN the municipal court OBJ glsday at
ternoon and Judge Randall refused to
Nsentence a man to prison with the
Christmas bells ringing. AS result
William Coblentz, Jr., who had been
brought back from Dayton, O., to ans
wer charges of robbery aud forgery,
is free man today with a chance to
make good.
Young Coblentz formerly worked on
the farm of County Supervisor Patrick
Tobin in the town of Pleasant Prairie
and early in November he went
through the house and taking several
pieces of clothing, little money and
revolver he left the town. He came
to Kenosha and managed to raise a
small. amount of money by passing a
check to which the name Of Mr.. Tobin
had been forged. Then he went to
the home of his father near Dayton.
He was arrested there on last Satur-
day night and Sheriff Stahl brought
him back to Kenosha at an early hour
Tuesday morning. Late in the after
noon Coblentz accompanied by his
father appeared in the municipal
court. He made no effort to conceal
any Of the facts in connection with the
case. He admitted that ne had taken
the things from the Tobin farm and
that he had forged the name Of Tobin
to the check. The boy declared that
he was homesick and wanted to return
to the home of his father and that he
took this method to secure money to get
to Dayton. The father declared that
young Coblentz had Away S been a
good boy and this was the first time
that he had been connected with any
thing Of a criminal nature. He plead
ed hard with the judge to be permit
ted to take the boy back home for
Christmas and declared shat he would
be personally responsible for his good
behavior in the future. The elder
Coblentz also made restitution to
Supervisor Tobin in every way posi-
bic. The son was deeply penitent and
his penitence seemed to be of the right
kind
After considering the facts in the
case and the further fact that the man
was brought in on the day before
Christmas Judge Randall decided to
parole young Coblentz to lis father for
term of six months. The elder Cob
lentz signed a bond to have the boy
in court any time that the Judge
might demand within six months and
father and son left Kenosha late Tues
day afternoon with tickets 1or DAYTON
and expecting to reach home in time
to attend the Christmas festivities at
the Coblentz home. Supervisor Tohirr
expressed satisfaction in tie outcome
Of the case and joined the elder Cob
lentz in a plea for leniency for the
son.

fight FLAMES IN FIRE TRAP
Firemen Take Many Chances in Effort
to Save Old Building. Tenants Have
Heavy Losses and Eek Estimates
His Loss at More Than $4,000.


One of the worst fires known in Ke-
nosha In many years broke out just
after two o clock Sunday morning and
reduced to ruins the Fred Eek bath
house and business building at the
corner of Rowland avenue and Pearl
street. The loss from the fire on the
building and the two stores occupying
it is estimated at from ten to twelve
thousand dollars with insurance of less
than half this amount. The origin of
the fire is a complete mystery and
Chief Isermann and his men are still
working in an effort to find it.
The building destroyed was great
sprawling two store frame structure
covering nearly quarter of an acre
of ground. 1t was built of wood but
the front part had been veneered
with corrugated iron. It contained
three stores, bath house and numer
Gus small rooms which had been used
for sleeping rooms. Just how many
tenants there were in the building
would be hard to discover, but there
were more than score of them and
all Of them escaped from the building
without injuries. The two stores on
the north portion of the building were
occupied by L. Gentle, as tailor and
men IS furnishing shop and by
Sam Fonte as fruit store and groc-
cry. The third store in the building
was vacant.
Fred Eek, the owner of>the building
discovered the fire just after two
o 'closk an& he sent o telephone cal %
the central engine house. When the
fremen arrived the flames were break
ing out all over the building. The
people who occupied the rooms in the
rear and on the second floor had pour
ed down the narrow stairWays, many
of them making an effort to carry
their personal belongings with them.
Most of them, however, piled out of
the building without thought of their
clothing or furniture. AS soon IS the
fremen started work they made a
search of the upper part of the build
ing to make certain that there was
no one sleeping in the rooms. The
flames licked Up the building with
such fury that even with five streams
of water pouring on it the fremen
worked for over I've hours before the
flames we're extinguished. The build
ing was a complete ruin. The flames
spread with such rapidity that it
was impossible to get any of the
stock out Of the two stores.
L. Gentle, the proprietor of the
clothing store declared that his loss
would 10 in excess of $4,000 with in
surance of only little over half this
amount The fruit and grocery store
had loss of $500. Eek declared to the
fremen that the loss on the building
would not be less than $4,000 and he
has insurance for $4,000. The build
ing was SO badly Quilted that it is not
possible to rebuild it. The fremen,
who worked on the building during
the fire declared that it was veritable
fire trap and Sunday morning they
were congratulating themselves that
they all escaped without meeting seri-
Gus injuries.

Valentine Eppers, one of the best
knows of the pioneer residents of the
town of Brighton, died at his home in
that town on Tuesday afternoon just
a little more than twentyfour hours
after the death Of his wife, The death
of the wife came as a great shock to
Mr.. Eppers who was more than eighty
years of age. The couple had been
married for more than sixty years and
the companionship of years had
brought such strong ties that when the
wife died on Monday the husband re-
fused to be comforted and, on Tuesday
afternoon his death came suddenly.
Physicians in attendance declare that
the death Of Mr.. Eppers was caused
almost wholly by the shock from the
death of his wife. Plans had been
made to hold the funeral of Mrs Ep-
pers on Christmas day, but the two so
long united in life were not separated
In death and double funeral service
was held at the Brighton church this
morning and the two were laid at rest
side by side in the family plot in the
Brighton cemetery

known Of the early settlers Of the
Northwestern part Of the county. BE
was born in Germany but he had re-
sided in Brighton for upwards of fifty
years. His family is one Of the larg-
est ever reared il Kenosha county and
surviving him were nine children,
forty-seven grandchildren and twenty
three great grandchildren.
