Press the spring"
Suiting action to word, the next
second Enid Maitland found herself
gazing upon the pictured sembIance
of Mr.. James Armstrong! She was
utterly unable to suppress an excla-
nation and a start of surprise at the
astonishing revelation. The man
looked at her curiousIy; he opened
his mouth to question her but she
recovered herself in part at least and
swiftly interrupted him in q panic
of terror lest she should beray her
knowledge.
And what is the picture of anotb-
er man doing in your wife's Iocket ?"
she asked TO gain time. for she very
well knew the reply; knew it, in
deed, better than Newbold himself.

nomination. If, however, it should
take sides in fight between Senator
LaFollette and Gov. 1fcGoyern it
might prove 2 very material aid to the
side to which it gave its votes
Leading stalwarts who have been
asked the question as TO where the
stalwart support would likely 60 in
case Of contest between Gov. Nc
Govern and candidate backed by
Senator LaFollette in the primary
election of 1914 have admitted mat his
question was a poser and that an ans
wer at this time was little more than
a guess. One prominent stalwart, how
ever, said he thought it was more
than likely in such contest the stall
wart vote would not participate. He
intimated the stalwart voters would
consider it was six of one and half a
dozen Of the other.
Another question of interest IN re-
gard to the likely primary battle be-
tween a LaFollette candidate and Gov.
McGovern is as to where the fair
minded democrats would vote in such
a contest. What is more, their votes
might decide it.

eleven O'Clock this morning caused
great excitement on Main street.
The big windows in the kitchen of the
restaurant were blown ont by the force
Of the explosion and Philip Harman,
Jr., county treasurer-elect, had mar
row escape. At the time of the ex-
plosion of the stove Mr. Harmaa was
working at broiler adjoining it. He
was thrown to the floor and covered
with SCOT and dirt, but escaped without
serious injury. The stove was wrecked
and portions of it blown about the
room. At the time of the explosion
dinner was being prepared at the
restaurant and the regular noon Wis
itors found things in confusion. How
ever, the broiler was kept working
overtime and the meal was served. A
new stove is being installed this after
noon. The damage wrought by the ex-
plosion viii probably be close to d
hundred dollars.

To- TAKE OVER STOCK
Kenosha Lodge of Elks to
Purchase all Stock Now
Held by Elks ASSN
WORK OUT FINANCIAL PLAN

Members Of the Kenosha Lodge Of
Elks at the meeting held on Thursday
evening completed arrangements by
which the property on Wisconsin street
which has been the property of the
Elk s Club House Association, will be-
come the property of the lodge. The
members voted without negative
vote to make a bond issue of $4,000
secured by the property and with this
money acquire all the stock now held
by individual members of The lodge.
The plan will be put into execution
before the end of the present year.
The committee in charge Of the new
financial plan is made up of Judge G.
E. Randall, G. G. Allen, George A.
YuIe, r. G. Simmons and John NJ. Keh-
lor. The total outstanding claims
against the property amount to close
to $4,000 but large amount of the
stock is already in the hands Of the
lodge and it is expected that before
the new bonds are issued the lodge
will have taken over another 81 900
worth of the stock. Already seventy
five of the members of the lodge have
agreed to contribute $40 each toward
the reduction of the Indebtedness and
it is certain that the full thousand dol
lars will be subscribed before the end
Of the month. The change in the
financial handling Of the proposition
will put the building wholly undec the
management of the lodge proper.
Since the building was bought the
majority of the stock has been held by
a few of the members And it is 1ow
planned to place the burden on the en-
tire lodge Plans have been made for
the retirement of the bonds and it is
expected that the lodge will have paid
off all the indebtedness within the next
five years. Already plans for the
building of modern club house are
being considered and it is expected
that as soon as the bonds now provided
for are retired that the mcabers Of
the lodge viii actively push the new
club house proposition. Unl4r +le new
plan all of the acti 7iti IS of the club
will be directly under the management
of the lodge.
Tt is expected that all the stock of
the association will be retired before
the first of January and great re-
union of the members of the lodge will
be held in celebration of the event.

SUES ON CONTRACT
Louis Abrahamson Of Min
neapOlis Demands Dam
ages From KenOsha Co.
SAYS CONTRACT WAS BROKEN

Louis Abrahamson Of Minneapolis,
Mimi, through his attorneys, Hastings
and Clarkson, fled in the circuit court
on Thursday afternoon an unusual ac-
ton in which the United Refrigerator
and Ice Machine Company and its of.
fcials Peter B. Nelson, Alan X. Giles
pie and J. Fred johnson are named as
defendants.
The Minneapolis man demands the
amount of $1,000 alleged to be due to
him as a result of contract made be-
tween himself and the company IN the
first day of July. Abrahamson alleges
that he became connected with the
company through answering an adver-
tisement which appeared IN one of the
Minneapolis papers. In the ad the
company had offered position pay
ing $3.50 month for a manager who
was willing to invest $4,000 in she con-
Germ. Abrahamson declares that he
read this advertisement in April Of
this year and that after 3 visit to the
plant in June he purchased $1,000
worth Of the stock of the company
with the understanding that he was
| to be made manager of q branch of
the business at Detroit, Mich, and
was to receive as salary $3.50 month.
In addition he was to have his ex-
penses paid and receive certain comis-
sions. Abrahamson charges an agree
ment, conspiracy and combination
among the defendants to defraud him.
He alleges that after he went to De-
troit the company failed to maintain
its portion of the contract and refused
to pay the salary that had been prom
ised. He declares that later hn was
transferred to Cleveland and that he
found that the company already had a
representative in this territory. lie
asserts that it was made a part of the
contract that before he should receive
his regular monthly salary his sales
should amount to $1,000 AMI that the
company made it impossible for him
to reach the point in sales where be
would receive salary under the inter.
probation that the company put on the
contract. It is asserted III tie com
plant that the contract provided that
the stock sold to Abrahamson should
be redeemed at par should he sever his
connection with the company and that
when he presented the stock that the
officials had refused to accept it or to
pay him the $4,000 which he had orr
ginally paid for the stock. The suit
viii probably be tried at the March
term of the circuit court.

District Attorney Hastings
Orders Sheriff to Clean
Up Gambling Clubs
1000 MEN ARE INTERESTED
Dealers in Clothing and Shoes Take
Action and Appeal to District At
torney to Put End to Fascinating
Form of Gambling in the City.

Have you won your suit yet? If
you have not there is danger that you
will be one of the list who also Grew
IN :he suit clubs. The old form of
fascinating gambling among the men
and women too has just got well
started in the city again and the dis
trict attorney has notified the sheriff
that an end must be put to the clubs.
Clothing dealers and dealers in shoes
held a meeting on Wednesday after
noon and following this meeting for
NAL complaint was made to District
Attorney Hastings against the action
of the suit clubs The district attorney
has held that the suit club game is 81
lottery and in violation of the laws
of the state and he at once directed
the sheriff to get after the promoters
and the men connected with the clubs
and if necessary to make arrests 30
stop the further drawings
Already the attorney has evidence
of six clubs of one hundred members,
each operating in the city. This is q
much larger scale than the game was
ever worked before in Kenosha 1t is
declared that the men are each peying
a dollar week and that the drawings
are held four times a week. Some of
these clubs have been con 1ucted by
men in business in Kenosha, while
others are in charge of men connected
with the mail order houses 1t is claim
ed by some OF. the men interested in
the complaint made to the district at
torney that there are more than a
thousand men on the rolls OF the clubs
in Kenosha. AS to the clubs AMONG
the women no complaint has been made
to the district attorney. 1t is declar-
ed that these clubs are operated by
men and women in other cities, the
transactions being completed entirely
by the United States mails. It is prob
able that an appeal will be made to
the United States marshal at Milwau-
kee to put an end to these dealings.
The government officials have held
that these clubs are lotteries and that
the mails may not be used for the cul-
lection of monies or for the advertis-
ing of them.
Sheriff Stahl is in doubt as to what
procedure to take, but as rapidly as
possible he is notifying the men in
charge and the men connected with
the clubs that any further drawings
will be followed by arrests The order
has caused quite stir in the city.
Most of the men connected with the
clubs are men employed in the various
factories of the city and it is said
that the collectors of the weekly
stipend are men connected with the
management Of some Of the depart
ments Of these plants.

Local Business of Express Companies
to be Hit by Parcels Post Law.
In regard to the possible effect the
new parcel post law, which goes into
effect January Of the coming year,
would have upon the express com
panies in the number Of packages sent
by them, local agent for one Of the
express companies today said What
affect the new law will have in d.
minishing the business of the express
companies is hard to estimate at this
early date. AS the rates within the
first zone of the parcel post map are
much lower than we can send articles
for the same distance it is possible that
the number of short distance articles
viii be seriously affected. The rates
in the second zone will also be 4 trifle
lower than ours, but in the third, our

express rates are much lower in the
third and fourth zone than mail rates,
we will not be affected in tie slight
