for the Confederate ball were only 81,

would have branch. although the organi-

CALL THE POLICE.
Property Owners Urged to Aid in Rid
ding the City of Army of Tramps

A formal order is being sent out from
the police Office calling on all house
wives of the city to aid the police de-
partment in Kidding the city of the
army of tramps that is infesting Keno
sha at this time and this order is to re-
main in force during the entire winter.
With the coming of the cold weather
the tramps have simply swooped down
on the city and over on the west side
on Monday several women were insult
ed and threatened when they refused
to give provisions to the wanderers.
The police motorcycle squad is going
to be kept on duty to look after these
fellows and housewives are urged to
call No. IL by telephone and let the
police have a chance to get these fell
lows and run them out Of town. It's a
good plan to send every tramp that
stops at your house to the police of
fee.

miraculous Boslack managed to creep
out from among the forks of the
spreader and managed to make his way
to the house where he fell bruised and
bleeding on the floor. He became IN
conscious short time after he reach
ed the house and physicians were call
ed to attend him. He never regained
consciousness and death came just af
ter noon on Wednesday.
An ambulance had been sent out to
the farm to bring Boslaek to the Keno
sha hospital on Wednesday afternoon
but his condition was such that the
physicians declared that it would be
impossible to move him and he died
while the ambulance was in the door

Marco Boslack ,thirty-nIne years Of
age, an Austrian who had made his
home with his brother, Julius Boslack
at 265 Rowland avenue, died at the
farm of Freeman Higgins in the town
of Pleasant Prairie on Wednesday af-
ternoon as result of terrible injuries
which he received on last Monday
night when he fell into the forks of a
manure spreader at the Higgins farm.
The man had two fractures Of the skull
and he had been unconscious since a
few minutes after he had been caught
In the spreader on Monday evening.
He had been given every possible care
at the Higgins farm, but the skill of
physicians could not save his life. Bos-
lack who has been a resident of Keno
sha for number of years, has a wife
and three children in the very heart
of the war zone in Austria and they
had been prevented from joining him in
this country on account of the war.
The accident which brought injuries
causing the death of Boslack was a
most unusual one. Since last June Bos-
lack had been employed on the Hig-
gins farm and part of his duties had
been to clean out the COW stalls in the
basement of the barn. On Monday
night after the milking was over Bos-
lack had started to clean out the barns
and he was working on a runway which
connected the barns with the lot adj
joining in which the manure spreader
was waiting for its load. He was seen
walking along the runway and it is
supposed that he slipped and fell. When
he fell he went head first into the
sharp prongs of the manure spreader
and two of the prongs penetrated his
head. One of them went through the
skull at the top of the head and the
other pierced the skull just above the
left temple. In some manner almost

Mrs. Ella Bray Graham For
merly of Kenosha Living
in Beirut, Syria, Now.
LETTER SAYS CITY IS QUIET

With the possibility of Beirut, that
interesting seaport in Syria, becoming
one of The theatres of the great Euro
pean war, Kenosha people have taken
an added interest in the events center
ing about the Syrian city on account
Of the fact that former Kenosha wo-
man is now in Beirut. She is Mrs. Ella
Bray Graham the wife of DR.. Harris
Graham, teacher in the Syrian Protes-
tant College and practicing physician
in Beirut.
Mrs. Graham is the daughter of the
Rev. w. L. Bray Of this city, a former
pastor of the First Congregational
church. 1t was in this church that DR..
and Mrs. Graham said farewell to their
friends nearly thirty years ago, when
they went to Syria to make their home.
They have made frequent visits to
America since that time but they have
not been back to this country in more
than two years. DR.. Graham, through
his work as a teacher and through his
prominence as physician, has won a
high place in Beirut, and although
Beirut may be attacked, it is not
thought that DR.. and Mrs. Graham will
be in any danger.
A letter bearing the date of October
Is, was received from Mrs. Graham by
the Rev. Mr.. Bray on Thursday and
this letter indicates that Beirut is be-

The official canvass of the vote cast
at the last general election in the state
has been completed in every county
with the exception of Milwaukee coun-
ty and this shows that Emanuel L.
Philip was elected governor of the
state by plurality of q, 244 votes over
John G. Karel of Milwaukee. The
same official canvass shows the election
of Paul o. Husting, the democratic
candidate for United States senator, by
a plurality of LOO votes over Francis
E. McGovern. The lead of Hustine
over McGovern is considered sufficient
ly large not to be changed materially
by recounts which are now underway
While the vote from Milwaukee county
is given as unofficial it has been taken
direct from the tally sheets and it is
not expected that there will be any
change made by the official canvass
of the vote.
The official vote cast for Blaine, the
Independent candidate for governor, is
32,738; the social democratic candidate
Oscar Ameringer polled but 26,797
votes in the state and of these 1S,54G
were cast ir Milwaukee county. The
plurality of other officials on the state
ticket is in the neighborhood of $4,000
votes. The official count has been com
pleted on the ten proposed amendments
to the state constitution and this shows
that all of the amendments were de-
teated by very large majorities. The
state vote on the amendments follows:
No. Carried five counties. Vote:
For, 68,639. Against 156,608. Ma
jority against, 81 1929.
No. Carried eleven counties. Vote:

WRANGLE OVER ROAD CARE
Board Gives up Most of the Morning to
Discussion of Proposed Settlement of
the Mcclellan Suit-Tormer Com
missioner Offers s12S.s5 and Costs.

The present session of the county
board will probably go on record as
a session of protest against state legis-
lation for following the adoption of
resolutions demanding the repeal of the
road law and the law which created
the county school board, the board now
plans to go on record as being favor
able to the amendment of the game
laws. The members insist that more
restrictions be placed about the is
suance Of hunting licenses and a com
mittee has been named to bring set
of resolutions to the attention of the
board and after there have been passed
by the board copies will be sent to all
to start state wide movement for re-
striction. The negligence of hunters
has fallen heavily on the farms of Ke-
nosha county and the members of the
board are determined to put whatever
influence they may have on the side of
stricter regulations for the men who
hunt.
The sessions of the board Monday
afternoon and this morning were not
productive of results. A lot of time
was given to the question of the distri-
button of money secured from the sale
of automobile licenses which is to be
used for the maintenance of state and
county roads. The members. Of the
board agreed that the money should be
used for the repair and maintenance of
the roads, but the question of the man
ner in which this fund shall be divided
between the towns and the city is still
IA question to be decided. Sharp argu-
ment of this question marked the SEES
sion of the board on Monday afternoon
and this morning it was again taken up
but no final decision was reached in the
matter.
Another old problem came up this
morning when Michael G.. Mcclellan
offered compromise settlement to the
county. Through his attorney he Of
fered to pay to the county the sum of
$128.95 in full settlement of the claims
of the county against him and his at
torney added to this an offer l. pay the
costs of the action which the county
had started against the former highway
commissioner in the municipal court.
Much Of the time Of the board this
morning was given to the discussion of
the Mcclellan settlement, but the board
adjourned without taking any final ac-
ton.
One important action taken by the
board was the decision that in the fu-
ture surveys for the road work are to
be made by the county surveyor instead
OF by the engineers of the Wisconsin
state highway commission. A large
majority of the members of the board
held that the money for these surveys
should be left in Kenosha county. The
decision of the board for the local sur
veyor is simply an indication of the
effort to get away from domination by
the state highway commission.
More reports of county officers were
heard today and claims are being rap
idly cleaned up. 1t is expected that the
work of the session will be concluded
this week.

KEEP TAB ON PAWN SHOPS.
Kenosha Police Watch Chicago and
Milwaukee Loan Shops for Gems.

No arrests have been made by the
local police in CONGESTION with the bold
robbery of John E. Heating at the
Hotel Borup ON Sunday night, but let
tiers have been sent to more than a
score OF cities asking detectives to
keep a close watch on all pawn shops
for men who may seek to pawn the dia-
monds stolen from Keatong. Chief
0 Hare is of the opinion that the rob-
berry was committed by men who are
experts in the business and it will
probably be a long time before the eff.
fort to pawn the gems are made. De-
scriptions of the ring and other iewelry
taken from Heating have been sent
broadcast throughout the country. No
word has been received from w. D.
Wilkinson, the man who registered
from Birmingham, Ala, and who oceu-
pied the room adjoining the Heating
apartments. The police feel certain
that Wilkinson had some connection
with the robbery. His baggage left at
the hotel on the night OF the robbery
is now in charge Of the police, but it
furnishes no clew to his identity.
This morning Mr.. Heating got his
first communication from the men who
robbed him. In perfectly plain en-
velope sent out from Chicago he re-
ceived his card of membership in the
Elks and his Eagles book. There was
