The members of the board are so
well satisfied with the well recently
drilled at the grounds of the Central
school that it was decided to sink a
similar well at the Balm school at once
and it is probable that in a short time
these wells will be provided for in all
of the school buildings.
Recreation work is to be given it's
first tryout in the schools of Kenosha
and David Fogwell, sor1Ie4 athletic di-
rector for the Y. NJ. G. A., has been
employed as the first superintendent of
recreation in the schools Of the city.
Mr.. Fogwell. will have charge of the
organized play Of the children of the
various schools and will also be the
athletic director of the various teams
of the high school.
There was a large amount of routine
business to come before the board.
The action of the teachers committee in
employing teachers to fill vacancies was
approved by a unanimous vote Of the
board and the entire teaching force is
now regularly employed for the year.
The addition of the new short CONNER
cial course in the high school with
John B. Maloney as teacher of these
branches met the unanimous support of
the members Of the board.

Pleasant Prairie Farmer is Fined on
Assault Charge This Morning.

John Fonken, a Pleasant Prairie
farmer, was to have been tried by a
jury in the municipal court this morn
ing on charge of making an assault
on Clos Zeppe, an Italian hunter, but
when the case was called it was an
rounced that the defendant had been
taken Ill during the night and could
rot leave his bed to appear in court.
His attorney asked that his plea be
changed and on a plea Of guilty he was
fined a dollar and the costs Of the ac-
ton. With the ending of the suit for
assault a combination warrant was is
sued for the arrest of the Italian
charging him with hunting on lands
without the permission of the owner
and hunting on pasture lands. Both
charges are listed in the state laws.
Zeppe was arraigned IN court and the
hearing Of the charges against him con
tinued for week in order to make IT
possible for Fonken to appear IN court.
Fonken declared that the only assault
that he committed was to order the
Italian off his land and he promises to

Former Alderman John HI. Hegeman
was named to succeed himself as a
member of the board of water commits
sioners at the meeting of the common
council on Tuesday evening, his cleo
tion being for the full term Of three
years. Commissioner Hegeman was
named as member Of the board only

George w. Higley and since joining the
board he has been one of the most ac-
tive members. He has been especially
interested in the plan for the building

votes for reelection from the members
of the council, four votes being cast
for Peter Pirsch, two for James Cor
man and one for Thomas Sullivan.
The council went on record as being

pal company and an ordinance provid-
ing for an advance Of twenty per cent
on all rates now in force in the city

nance was unanimously recommended

to settle the old claim of Anna Eng
lish against the city for 1925. This
action had been brought in the circuit
court and the jury awarded Mrs. Eng
lish verdict of $500. In order to
have the verdict set aside it would be
necessary for the city to take the case
to the supreme court and the aldermen
believed that it would be economy to
accept the compromise and settle the
case at the sum named by the commit
tee.
Three new police alarm boxes are to
be added at once and the council gave
Chief 0 Hare the power to add three
new men to the force in order to make
it possible for him to take care Of the
policing of the city under the new
regime. The men will be added to the
pay roll within fortnight.
The city attorney sent communica-
ton to the council declaring that the
council had not acted in legal man
ner in the plans for the opening Of sew
eral streets and the petitions for such
opening of streets will be returned to
the property owners in order that they
may be drawn in legal form.
No action was taken on the extern
sion Of the trunk sewer or on the com
pletion of the proposed north side trunk
sewer, the committee being granted
further time for the consideration of
both of these projects.
There was large amount Of routine
business to come. before council and it

SUFFERING FROM DELUsI0NS
Racine Officials Calm Deranged Man
and Put Him on Car For Kenosha
and Later Make Investigation of
the Story Which He Told Them.

Fred Croft, who claimed his resi-
dence as Kenosha, told weird story
of an alleged brutal murder which he
claimed to have witnessed, to the mem
bers of the Racine police department
on Tuesday night and the story was
SC unusual that the Racine officials af
ter making an investigation, came to
the conclusion that Croft was suffering
from Illusions and put him on q car
for Kenosha. Croft has not as yet been
located in Kenosha, but he is expected
to appear at the police Office here and
tell similar story. In his story to
the Racine police he declared that he
had been an eye witness to the brutal
murder. Detective Schumacher OF the
Racine force heard the story of Croft
and made it public this morning.
The story of the confession of the
eyewitness to the murder is told by
Detective Schumacher who was seated
in the station when a man who gave his
name as Fred Croft and his residence
as Kenosha, came into the room quietly
and hesitatingly. When asked what
could be done for him he announced
that he had a confession to make and
that he had been forced to come to the
station by his conscience which had
not allowed him single moment IS rest
in the past three weeks He then I'M
folded his story.
Gads, How They Did Fight.
Croft, who has been working for the
Fox Ice Company in Racine, for some
time, stated that the murder was the
result of fight which had taken place
between three men at one Of the ice
houses of the company. The weapon
with which the crime had been com
mitted was an ice pick, tool carried
by ice men. He said that he peered
to the room one evening three weeks
ago when he heard quarreling and that
suddenly the lights in the place went
out and he could see no more. There
was scuffling after which everything
quoted down and, hiding back Of the
building, he saw two of the men
emerge and hasten away, he said.
Curious to know What had become
of the third man in the party he crept
on hands and knees to the open door
way and peered through into the dark
ened room. All was as still as a grave
An uncanny feeling crept over him, he
said, and he could almo,t feel that he
was in the presence of d ath. A furth-
er investigation revealed the body of
the third man lying on the floor while
a>few feet away laid an ice pick cover
ed with blood. Striking a match lie
made a closer examination of til pros
trate man and found that a stab
wound in the back had brought about
the fatal ending.
At once he realized the other two
men might return at any moment and
as in the movies, find him holding
tie bloody weapon, accuse him of the
crime to shield themselves. Hurriedly
leaving the ice house he crouched down
back of a large packing box q few feet
from the doorway and waited develop
ments. He had but short time to
wait. Even while inside the ice house
AZ could hear the creaking of a wagon

STREET WORK As PANAcEA
Women Claim That Able Bodied Men
and Women Should be Saved From
Becoming Paupers Even if City is
Forced to Borrow Money to Pay.

Prominent women of the city have
Joined movement to prevent pauper-
ism in the city and at the meeting Of
the common council on Tuesday even
ing the aldermen received an unusual
petition from these women. It called
upon the council to provide work for
hundreds of able bodied unemployed
men now in Kenosha in order to pre-
vent these men from Joining the great
army of men whb are demanding aid
from the city. The women urged the
employment of the men by the city on
street work even though the city might
find it necessary to borrow money in
order to meet the bills for the wages
OF the men so employed. The petition
was sent to the council after careful
investigation of conditions in the city
made by members of the board of di-
rectors of the Associated Charities and
these conditions were found to be such
as to demand heroic action on the part I
of the men in charge of the business of
the city. Tt is certain that the pauper
lists of the city will grow by leaps and
bounds during the coming winter
months if the plan suggested by the
women is not followed by the city.
The petition stating the conditions and
urging remedy follows:
Kenosha, Wis, Sept. s, 1914.
To the Honorable Mayor and Members
o2 The City Gogac;i O. the CITY Of
Kte0 na.
We, he undersi gned, members of the
advisory board of the Associated Chari-
ties OF Kenosha, having had forced to
our attention the suffering of a large
number of little children due to con-
tinued unemployment of employablei
fathers, hereby bring to your attention.
the following facts:
First-That these little children musti
be fed, clothed and sheltered.
Second-That the natural source Of
the support of these children is the en-
piOyment of their fathers.
Third-That if employment is not
available for these fathers, the city
will face the necessity of supplying
food, shelter and clothing to the
families.
Fourth-That to contribute. material /
needs from municipal funds to the
family of an able bodied man is
humiliating to the family, demoralizingI
to the father and expensive to the city.
Fifth-That, though the city could
manage temporarily without more road
work, yet for the city to put these idle
fathers to work even at the expense
of increasing debt by so doing, would
be an enormous ultimate economy be-
cause the money spent in maintaining
the families of the unemployed might
with decidedly greater financial profit
tc the city and moral profit to the I'M
employed be spent in wages.
Sixth-That other cities, in similar
emergencies, have practiced successfuI-
" the plan of employing for munici-
pal work unemployed fathers.
We, therefore petition that the may
or and city council of the city of Ke.
nosha complete immediate arrange
ments for the employment of able
bodied unemployed fathers.
