Chicago Brass Co. Team Defeats Bad
ger Boys and Jeffrey Go. Team
makes Game from the Hosiery Team.
Simmons Team has Long Lead,


At the Keno Park the American
Brass Co. administered a defeat to the
Badger Brass Mfg. Co. in an exciting
game that was practically pitchers
battle from the very start. "stify"
Smith of the American Brass Go. got
the palm, although outpitched by Hopf
at nearly every angle. Hopf has been
playing in very hard luck pitching
brilliant ball and losing through poor
support at critical periods The Ameri-
can Brass Co. nearly cinched the game
in the fourth, when Hopf slammed two
batters in the ribs and with the bases
full, his infaid gave an exhibition of
some very Wlerd base ball, allowing
five runs on two hits and two men hit
by pitches. The Badgers came back in
the sixth and seventh, scoring Ave runs
but stiffy" Smith frightened up and
the scoring ended with the American
Brass Go. two runs to the good. Boyle
Of the Badgers, broke into the home
run column by polling into left field

SAY ALYEA IS A HORSE THIEF
Illinois Men Claim Horse He is Alleged
to Have Driven Into Kenosha at the
Time o Hare WIS Shot was Stolen at
Farm Near Joliet in 1909.

There is to be no escape for Ernest
e. Alyea, the man held in the county
jail awaiting trial on charges of at
tempting to murder Chief Of Police
owen o Hare, as this morning Chief
10 Hare received a formal demand for
the arrest Of Alyea from the officials
at Joliet, H., and if Alyea should slip
through the clutches of the officers
here, there will be an officer from
Joliet in waiting to take him to that
city to answer charges of grand lar
ceny. The police at Joliet have war
rant charging Alyea with the theft Of
a horse belonging to George Adelman,
a farmer living near Joliet. 1t is
claimed that it was Adelman 5 horse
that Alyea was alleged to have been
driving when he came to Kenosha on
the night that Chief of Police O'Hare
was shot and later officials came from
Joliet and took the horse back to that
city. The Joliet officials Joined the
Wisconsin and Indiana officials in the
search that was made for Alyea at
that time and when he was arrested in
Chicago in May Of 1910, the Joliet Off
cials sought to have him taken to that
city for trial At the time the pref
erence was given to the Indiana Off
Gals and Alyea was taken to LaPorte
where he was sentenced to prison. The
Joliet officials have offered to save the
cost Of prosecuting Alyea in this coun-
ty and have declared that they will
take Alyea at once to the Illinois city
and have him indicted for horse steal
ing at the next sitting Of the grand
jury Of Will county. Chief O'Hare has
Alyea in Kenosha and he is not consid-
ering any proposition to turn him over
to Joliet officials or those from any
other state. He is going to insist that
Alyea stand trial here and # he is re-
LEASED by a jury in the circuit court,
the local officials will assist the Joliet
chief in every way possible. 1t is I'M
derstood that Alyea expressed a pref
erence to come to Kenosha for trial,
knowing that the charges at Joliet
were hanging over him and that he
hoped to be able to get the charges
withdrawn following a trial in Wiscon-
sin. Alyea is said to have counted a
lot on his alibi to get him freedom in
Wisconsin. The officials at the Jail
declared that Alyea is beginning to
lose faith in his chance for escape here
and declare that it would not be
surprising if the defendant should
plead Guilty" to the charges here be
fore the case is called in court. Should
Alyea decided to plead guilty the case
could be disposed Of in the municipal
court.

Upon the advice of counsel the al
dermen decided that it was useless for
the city to join with the Milwaukee
avenue property owners in an effort to
.enforce all Of the demands made by the
property owners on the street railway
company in return for the privilege Of
operating the interurban cars on that
street Most of these demands, SO far
as the city is concerned, are covered by
the contract entered into by the city
with the street railway company and,
while there was disposition on the
part Of the aldermen to assist the prop
erty owners in every. way possible, it
was held that the city would have no
standing in court in any actions that
might be started by the property own
ers to enforce their demands. The city
has assumed obligations in it's contract
with the railway that must be lived up
TO. The city can with propriety, how
even, join with the property owners in
an appeal to the state railroad commits
sion to force the railway company to
make stops on Milwaukee avenue, and
the great majority Of the people Of the
city would favor having the council do
everything in its power to force the
street railway company to make a
reasonable number of stops on this
street for the accommodation of the
public The public-be damned attitude
adopted BY the company with regard
ito making stops on the avenue has not
gained it any friends even among the
people who believe that the cars
should be given access to the down
/ town district Of the city. It is not prob
able that any court or the railroad com
mission would order the company to
1stop its cars on every corner, both en-
tering and leaving the city, but we Be-
lieve. that the company will be ordered
to give "a reasonable amount Of service
in return for the privilege of using the
street The company cannot take pos
session Of the strest and give notLine
lin return.

Teachers Of State Take Up
War to Prevent Repeal
of Pension Law.
FAVOR TEACHERS PENSIONS
Declare Salaries Of Teachers Even Of
Long Experience Do Not Permit Pro
vision for Years When Age Makes it
Impossible for Them to Work.

Teachers in the state are taking up
the fight for the pension law and to
this end considerable publicity is being
given to a statement recently given out
at La Crosse. This statement refers
especially to statement sent out re-
Gently from Menomonee Falls in which
the repeal Of the law is demanded. The
article was published in this paper. In
answer to this article the La Crosse
Advocate Of the pension law says:
1T is an aggressive statement of the
opposition position. To some state
ments in it, however, one may take ex-
ception. One is that the teachers who
remain in the profession twenty-five
years or more ordinarily receive such
good salaries that they do not need the
pension to protect them in their old
age That is ridiculous Teachers Of
twenty-five years or any other length
Of service are far underpaid This ap-
plies to teachers in city or county, in
grades and high schools, everywhere.
The best paid members Of the staff in
La Crosse are the superintendent and
the principals, but their pay is only
moderate when their preparation and
responsibility are compared with the
preparation and responsibility neces-
sary in any line Of business and in
other professions except the ministry
with which the public deals more mig
gardly, if that were possible, than it
does with the teachers.
"Nor is it true that the teachers
pension bill was railroaded through the
legislature. It received strong support
at the session two years before and in
the interval was exhaustively discussed.
Sentiment among the teachers was
shown to be favorable to it. The
most serious objection to the law as
passed, we should say, is that it pro
0vides for such small payments to the
benefciaries. Its value would be in
creased in proportion to an increase in
the monthly allowance.
{" We pay our soldiers pensions, and
deservedly SO. Yet we should not care
to say that the soldiers do more for the
country than the teachers who in each
generation are required to convert a
mass Of raw material, including a great
deal of foreign material, into citizens
to whom the fortunes of the, state and
nation are soon to be entrusted The
weak point in our American system is
that too many men exercise the rights
I if citizenship without being equipped
for it, they may be trained on a large
scale only in the schools and those in
charge of this most responsible work
deserve, in our judgment, very much
more than the public has ever done for
them. We can see no reason for the
repeal of the pension law unless it be
