the left field fence for a homer
and you're happy.
People who went to the EN-
press yesterday to see the opener
were also happy. They saw Chap
man and Berubs, gymnasts, score
homer. Their act is what the
standard of vaudeville should be.
Their feats are daredevil enough
70 make them exceptional and
truly interesting. Bleachers and
grandstand alike applauded their
efforts.
Then there is Grace Church,

well. However, Miss Church's
dancing is the feature of the act

has been granted decree of d.

used profane language towards
her. The husband is practicing
surgeon. The plaintiff was CIV

women's home and the other to
the mems.
And that was why, hand in
hand, they had waded into the
river.
Supt. John, Nicholson, of the
"alms farm" thinks that the
Kane county poor house is a
mighty good place for old peo-
pie. Most of them live better
here than they did before they
came" he says. "It costs the
county $3.50 week for each
person we board"
Now, If Engel had gone to
Australia, he wouldn't be alone
in a poor house, he would be at
home with his wife, getting an old
age pension of $3.50 a week, and
his wife would draw like
amOunt--nOt as charity, but as
something earned by their years
of work and citizenship.
II neither had emigrated, the
man would be getting an old age
pension from Germany, and the
woman likewise in Ireland, for i'm
neither of those countries do old
folks go tower the hill to the poor
house." Instead, they walk up as
citizens and draw the pensions
justly due them.
Frank and Bridget Engel chose
America--and got the poor house
and the river.

BATAVIA, ILL.,, Sept. II. -
Frank Engel and his wife Bridget,
ran away from the Kane county
"alms farm" and took a cur to
Aurora, where they had formerly
lived. Frank was 81 and Bridget
20.
The old pair went out to the
little house they had owned and
where they had lived for years
and years. In front of what had
been home they stood aud cried.
Then they wandered to Fox river
park, where i'm years past they
had spent many happy Sunday
afternoons.
This afternoon they sat with
tear-filled eyes gazing out over
the river. other people went
home to their beds and suppers,
but the old man and his wife
waited by the river bank.
Next morning street car con-
ductor heard a faint cry and ran
down into the park. Near the
river sat the old man. His wife
lay with her head in his lap, UNI
conscious. Both were wet and
feeble from exposure.
81 guess she has gone HOME -
the aged husband told the con-
ductor. 81 wish I had, too"
The couple are thought to have
attempted suicide together. But
the river was shallow and the old
mans courage failed, and he tried
to save his wife. She died two
days later.
Frank Engel went back to the
poor house alone.
EngeI had come to America,
from Germany, at the age of
twenty. In 1872 he settled in
Aurora, I'LL. He had married an
Irish immigrant girl, and they
started housekeeping i'm a little
four-room home they bought
through a loan association.
They had no children. Their
flower garden in the front yard
and their vegetables In the back
kept them busy. And they tried
to save enough money to keep
them in their old age.
All their lives they worked
hard, and tried to save enough
for their old age-and failed.
Engel got too old to earn
much, and three years ago the
cottage was all they had. They
sold the place for $1,000. Fin
ally that was gone.
They went to the supervisor OF
the poor. Eve can send you to
the poor house." he said. The
suggestion shocked them, as II
shocks all who have worked and
lived thriftily.
II have paid taxes here for
such a long time, l thought may
be you could let us have the same
amount that 1t would cost the
county to keep us at the poor
house and we could manage to
get along" the old man suggest
ed But 1t was impossible.
So they went to the poor house.
1t was big, clean place, with a
fine lawn and good food, BUT 1T
WAS NOT HOME. And the old
pair were separated. They who
had lived side by side for half a
century and who were all in all
to each other--one went to tho
