HENRY F. JORDAN INJURED.
Former Chairman of County Board
Seriously Injured in Fall.

Henry i. Jordan, former chairman
of the county board and one of the
best known men of Kenosha, met with
very severe injuries this morning just
after eleven O CLOCK when he slipped
and fell on an icy walk in front of the
First Baptist Church on Church street.
Mr.. Jordan had been suffering with
rheumatism and for this reason he was
walking with great care when the ac-
cident occurred. He was dazed from
the fall and later was taken to the
Kenosha hospital in an ambulance. An
examination showed that his left wrist
had been broken and he had a severe
scalp wound over the left eye. At the
hospital this afternoon it was stated
that he was resting as easily as could
be expected under the, circumstances.

SEEKING ICE HARVEST
Chicago Companies Rush
Men to Lakes With First
Indications of Ice
SUPPLY IN CHICAGO VERY LOW

A big gang of men employed by the
Chicago ice companies to work on
the lakes of Kenosha county passed
through the city this morning enroute
to the lakes in the western part+of the
county and the ice men are hopeful
that the cutting season will be under
way within another week 1t is de-
clared that the ice supply in Chicago
is very low and for this reason the
companies will start work on the Wis
consin lakes just as soon as the ice
is thick enough to ship. A requisition
has been made on the railway com
panies for cars and if the cold weather
holds out to the end of the week it is
thought that the cutting season will
be inaugurated on all the lakes Of the
county. At the present the ice is
about four inches thick. Not a pound
of ice has been cut in Kenosha county
this season, but the facilities of the
big companies are such that a vast
supply could be put up within a few
days with favorable weather. The
houses on all the lakes of the county
have been cleaned out and the ma
chinery used in housing the crop is all
ready for use. 1t is expected that fully
two thousand men will be employed in
the harvest in Kenosha county this
year. Every employment agency in
Chicago is now seeking men for the
various companies. So far as can be
learned nothing has been done to make
any examination of the men and pre-
vent their bringing diseases into the
county. Only few men from Keno
sha will be employed on the ice this
year and it is expected that all of
these will work for local companies.

The Parcels Post.

The parcels post has come to stay
of its enemies. 1t will give
the good service quick and cheap. It
may hurt the express companies some,
but they can live for a while on the
extra dividends they have been pay
ing. Reports from all over the country
show that the parcels post started off
successfully the first day of the year
and that it's business will increase goes
without saying, for it's service will be
cheaper and considerably quicker as a
rule then the express companies. It is
in way an experiment, that is adj
mitted by it's hackers, but it is exper-
mental only as regards the system of
running it and its rates, the fact re-
mains that it is here to stay and with
some possible changes it will fill long
felt want for the shippers of small
packages. IF we will all treat it de-
Gently and live up to the government s
rules we will have no cause to regret
the parcels post.

Turnkey at the County Jail
Re-appointed by the New
Sheriff This Morning
DEPUTIES TO FURNISH BONDS

Nicholas Fonk is to remain in his old
place at the county Jail as the first
official act of Sheriff Achen when he
took charge of the office this morning
was the appointment of Mr.. Fonk as a
deputy sheriff and at the same time
his appointment as turnkey of the jail
was made. This will be the third term
for Fonk in the Office and his appoint
ment is a matter of congratulation for
the people of the county. Mr.. Fonk
has won the appreciation of everyone
who has had business at the county
Jail.
The appointments Of deputy sheriffs
was decidedly slow this morning and
although there was a lot of applica-
tions for places on the desk of the
sheriff he was decidedly slow in MAX
ing appointments and declared that he
was going to cut the list to the short
est possible number. Following the
appointment of Mr.. Fonk Sheriff Ach-
en- announced that he would follow the
usual rule and name retiring sheriff
Andrew f. Stahl as one Of his deputies
and following this appointment was
the appointment of Thomas Scott as
a deputy and as under-sheriff. Other
deputies named included Frank Senne
and Ted Werve of Kenosha. John
MUTT of Salem and James Nelson of
Somers.
A new rule applies to deputies this
year and that is the rule that requires
every deputy to furnish the sheriff
with bond of $1,000. Under the law
the sheriff is responsible for the work
Of his deputies and he is also respon-
sible to them for all fees claimed for
services. The bonds demanded has had
a tendency to reduce the number of
applications for positions on the roll.
It is probable that Sheriff Achen will
have his list of deputies for the city
and towns worked out by the end of
the week and appointments will be
made from day to day until the new
sheriff has taken care of all the towns
and wards. 1t is certain that the list
for the year will be much smaller than
in former years.

BRINGS ACTION FOR WASTE.
Brighton Man Starts Unusual Case in
County Court.

Daniel Mccormick, well known farm
er Of the town of Brighton, has
brought an unusual action in the
county court demanding the sum of
$1,000 from the estate of his mother,
the late Ann Mccormick, for waste. y
At the time of the death of Patrick
Mccormick many years ago the widow
was given a life interest in the estate
with the understanding that it was to
succeed to the son at her death. The
son claims the amount of more than a
thousand dollars from the separate
estate of his mother, claiming that the
property has been allowed to run down.
The will of Mrs. Mccormick which has
been fled for probate disposes of an
estate valued at $4,000. The case is
the first of the kind to be started in
the county court in many years.

MODERN TERMINAL LATER ON
Company May Also Place Repair Shops
for Milwaukee Division on Land
Near Berryville on Which Options
Have Been Secured.

Officials of the Northwestern Rail
way Company were in Kenosha on
Saturday and while they are still
clothing in secrecy the plans for the
use of big tract of land which is
now being sought by the company it
is admitted by officials Of the company
that the purchase of the land is for
the purpose Of improving the handling
Of the freight of the city Of Kenosha.
The land on which options have been
taken is located near the Berryville
station and it is said that the company
has options on more than six hundred
acres Of land.
The company plans during the COM
ing year to turn portion of the big
tract into modern switch yard. 1t is
planned to build a new double track
from the Kenosha station to the new
switch yard and the company now has
"a right of way for these tracks. When
the new yard is ready it will be pos
sible for many improvements to be
made about the station and it is said
that the company ultimately plans on
the erection of new and modern pas
senger terminal in Kenosha. The
tracks about the station now used for
the storing of suburban trains will be-
pulled out in order to make possible
the installation of carriage and au-
tomobile roadway on the west side of
the station. With the new yards near
ly all of the switching now done in
the long ago outgrown yards about the
station will be transferred to the new
yards. 1t is admitted that some fut-
ure time may see the building of car
shops on the land now purchased, but
this is something for the future. The
officials of the company look at this
as a possibility, but if shops are
erected they will be in the nature of
repair shops for the Milwaukee divi-
= s
sion and they will not take the place
of the big shops in Chicago.
The plans of the company it is said
will be made public later in the year
when the, purchase of the property
sought has been closed up. Mayor
Head has received the assurance that
when these changes are made there will
be no further cause for objections
among the shippers of Kenosha. The
mayor has taken up with the officials
of the company the plan for putting in
subways under several of the streets
of Kenosha, but this has not met with
favor. The officials believe that the
removal Of lot of the switching to
the new yards will do much to allevi-
ate the present troubles and possibly
it will do away with the demand for
subways.
Whether Racine is to be considered
as well as Kenosha has not been made
known by the company. but the prop
erty on which options has been taken
is midway between the two cities and
it will make an ideal spot for the ship
ping of both cities to be taken care
of. 1t is said that the company will
expend a large sum of money in car
rying out the plans.
