reach Congress.
Agitation for the preservation of Libby
Park, a beautiful piece OF undeveloped
woodland near Soldiers Home Park.

the Fourth Of July. On that day a Pc
tition vas circulated among the pic

vicinity would ruin Libby Park with
their operations and deprive Petworth
of this valuable breathing space The
residents started their protest on these
grounds. They do not want the govern
ment to make any improvements, as the
park is now naturally beautiful, but is
kept from falling into desolation.

Body Found Floating Thurs
day Identified as THAI
of Joseph Papan.
MISSING FOR OVER A YEAR

The mystery surrounding the identity
OF the remains of the man found float
ing in the lake off the harbor piers did
not long remain mystery as this morn
ing the remains were taken from the
grave in the potters field at the City
cemetery and positively identified as
those of Joseph Papan, % years of age
and former resident Of Kenosha.
Papen disappeared from Kenosha on
the morning of June IL, 1913, and since
that time search has been made for him
in all parts of the country. The fact
that he carried collapsible drinking
cup brought the Identification.
When Andrew Papan, a brother of the
man long missing, heard Of the finding
of the remains and the fact that col
lapsible drinking cup was found in the
pockets of the clothing, he at once went
to the Rutledge 6 Crossin morgue to
take look at the trinkets taken from
the pockets of the man. He declared
late Tuesday night that he felt certain
that the body found was that of his
brother and he made arrangements to
have the remains disinterred in order
to make certain of the Identification.
With the consent of Coroner Millager,
men Went to the cemetery this morn
ing and brought the badly decomposed
body back to the morgue and Andrew
Papan had no trouble in identifying
the remains

The farmers of Kenosha county are
lighting the most spectacular battle in
the history of the county in an effort
to save the oats crop from the ravages
OF the army worm. Up to last Satur-
day night not one OF the worms had
been seen in Kenosha county. This af-
ternoon it is declared that the worms
have come in such nun4s..., that they
are positive menace to the oats crop
OF the county. 1t is declared that fully
$4,000 WOE II of oats have been de-
stroyed by the worms in this unty
alone in the last few days and the
ravages are becoming more extended
every hour.
The old adage that the farmer works
from sun up to sun down has been for
gotten in the fight against the worms
and on scores of farms in Kenosha
county men are working night and day
in an effort to save the grain from de-
aoruction. On the Stephenson farm al
the town of Somers four binders were
being used in the oats fields and night
and day shifts were being used. The
binders are not allowed to stop at any
time during the day. The horses are
switched at the noon hour and the men

worms on Sunday night. Up .ro
time there was an indication that there
would be the biggest crop of oats
known in years. 1t is claimed that in {
lot of the fields more than fifteen
per cent of the oats have been eaten I
by the worms. Old General Army
Worm seems to be leading his army
from east to west and the worms maqe
their appearance in the town of Paris
on Tuesday morning. They came in
very gret numbers and the farmers
found them in the oats without warn
ing. The army worm does not eat the
grain, but nips off the tender little
branches which hold the grain on the
stalk and it falls to the ground
to be lost.
2. G. Torrey, register of deeds, made
trip through the town of Somers this
morning and he declares that the raw
ages of the worm are terrific. CT never
saw such efforts on the part of the
farmers to save the crop of oats and I
never saw anything destroy grain so
rapidly. / went through one field on
Sunday and l estimated the yield at
sixty-four bushels to the acre. / went
through that same field this morning
and l believe that the yield has fallen
off fifteen bushels to the acre as a re-
suit of the coming of the worms Farm
ers are putting every available man
into the Oat fields and lot of the grain
is being saved. The worms are not
nearly so dangerous after the oats is
in the shock as they seem to have
liking for standing grain. feel GER
tain that the loss as result of the
coming of these worms in Kenosha
county will be exceedingly large re-

made to save the crops"

PAYERS TO CLINToNvILLE.

twenty-five Kenosha Men to be Taken
to Wisconsin City for Paving Job.
For the first time in many years
there is nothing for street PAYERS to do
II Kenosha. All work contracted for
by the city has been completed and the
men who are accustomed to earn their
livings by this kind of work are be-
ing forced to go to other cities. The
Petersen Construction Company has the
contract for big job of street paving
at Clintonville and next Monday morn
ing a party of twenty-five Kenoshans
will go to Clintonville to have charge
of this work. 1t is expected that the
work there will keep the men busy I'M
til late in the season. Efforts are now
being made to secure the Improvement
of several streets in the city but none
of this work can be let to contract in
time to have the work starte ring
the present year. The paving .ogk in
the city this year viii set low record
Tor decade as practically no street
improvements have been made. Not
single contract for street improvement
has been let since the first of May and
all work done this year had been
started before the new administration
went into Office.

ARREST NIGHT WATcHMAN.
Emil Fox Jailed on Charge of Carrying
Concealed Weapons Tuesday Night,

Emil Fox, employed as night
Waterman by some of the stores in the
western part of the city, was arrested
by Merchant Police Officer Louis Lee
elise, late Tuesday night on charges of
carrying concealed weapons. The ar
rest was one of the most unusual ever
reported at the office of the sheriff.
LeGlise claimed that Fox had no right
to carry a revolver. Fox slept the
night in jail and in the absence of
Judge Randall from the city he was re-
leased on recognizance bond this
morning. Fox asserted that he had
been given permission to serve as a
Waterman by the city police and fire
commission and that he had perfect
right to carry revolver. 1t is not i'm
probable that there will be a civil suit
as result of the arrest of Fox. Rec
ords of the police Office fail to show
any action of the commission as to his
right to carry revolver.

Gets Into Bad Hands When
She Visits Chicago.
APPEALS TO POLICE For AID

Nellie Waters, an eighteen year old
girl residing near the village of Berry
vile, in this county. broke into the
police reports in Chicago on Tuesday
when she asked for aid from the police
after having been the victim of a cab
man who took her to a house which is
supposed to have been used for i'm
moral purposes. Here is the way one
of the Chicago newspapers tells the
story of the first visit of the Rarryville
girl to sd her horne coming:
sNellie Waters went back to Berry
vile, Wis, today with tears in her
eyes and her heart beating like run

eighteen, visited Chicago just one day.
during which time she encountered
more adventures thar an enchanted
princess in an Arabian night--only
they were not so nice. In fact. the
police are going to investigate some of
Nellie's adventures and some one NAV
get arrested as a sequel.

story at the detective bureau before
she left. She is a slender young WON

Young Papan disappeared from Ke-
nosha under most mysterious circum-
stances. He had been resident of Ke-
nosha for nearly eight years AID had
been widely known among the Slavish
people of the city and had been active
in their organizations. At the time of
his disappearance ha had been employed
as a delivery man at the Host meat
market on Middle street. On June 18th
of last year he walked into the market,
settled up his collections and declared
that he was going to leave mis- job. He
never seen again. His brother at once
started search for him and for months
advertisements offering reward for
information in regard to him were car
ried in ali of the Slavish papers of the
country, bat not a response was re-
ceived from any of these papers. The
Slavish National society took up the
search for the missing man and organ
izations O. it all over the country made
a search, but they FOUR nothing.
Andrew Papan now believes hat his
brothers. body has been in the lake
ever since the day he disappeared from
Kenosha. The brother insisted this morn
ing that he believed that his brother
had met with foul play.
Young Papan had worked in Califor-
MIA before coming to Kenosha and he
had earned considerable money. It was
declared that he had $500 deposited in
the First National Bank shortly before
his disappearance. This money had
been drawn out and the young man was
supposed to have had it in his pockets
when he gave up his position at the
meat market In addition to this the
brother claims that he carried at the
time of his disappearance gold watch
worth considerable and that he wore a
couple of valuable gold rings. No trace
Of the watch or the rings was found
on the body.
Members of the slayish society in
which the drowned man carried insur-
ance of a thousand dollars aided the
brother in making complete the identi-
hcation.
