FORGETS PART Of LIFE STORY
Chief o'Hare Gets Letter from Michi-
gan Officials Who Are Anxious to
Have Man Returned to Escanaba for
Trial-Admits Passing Checks.

Edward j. Thomas, Jr Of 2 eleth,
Mimi, who is in the city lookup here
pending an investigation into his re-
cord, told the police the story of. his
life on Tuesday, but he appears to ave
had short memory as this morning
Chief of Police Owen O'Hare received
a letter from Andrew Iyerson, chief of
police at Escanaba, Mich, asking that
Thomas be held as forger and deelar-
ing that he was on his way to KenosLa
to take the man back to Michigan.
Thomas forgot to tel the police any
thing about the trail of worthless
checks he had left at Escanaba. In
fact, he indicated to the police officers
that at Escanaba he had worked as a
bookkeeper and timber scaler and
that he had been entirely free from
anything of criminal nature. This
part of his story fails to tally with the
report of Iverson, who declares that
he knows of two forged checks he
cashed in Escanaba and that there may
be others. One of them was passed at
the Michigan hotel there and another
in a saloon, and it was on the money
that Thomas go. from these checks that
he made his way to Kenosha.
Thomas spent day at the state fair
in Milwaukee and day in Racine be-

In Racine he was known under the
name OF Pierce and the Racine police
have been asked to make an investiga-
ton to see just what he did there.
Thomas is not thought to have passed
any worthless CHECKS in Kenosha.
While here he went to the First Ma
tional bank and took several checks
from the counter md he attempted to
cash one drawn for the amount Of ten
dollars at the Hotel Borup. When the
validity of the check was questioned
Thomas hurriedly tore it into small bits
and he was planning to make his get

the police that his family was well

of the opinion that the whole story

ton day. in the circuit court and it is
expected that at least sixty aliens who

to get the right to vote before election
day. Most of the men seeking papers
have been examined by the federal
agents and it is declared that the class
is well drilled for the test. 1t is prob

$4,000 WOMEN ARE EMPLOYED.
Industrial Commission Investigates oc-
equations in Regard to Wage Scale.

Kenosha women and children who are
compelled to work for living viii be
interested in the report of the indus
trial commission of its investigations of
occupations of Wisconsin women and
children during the last year. The COM
mission inquired into about 10000
schedules of women workers in 1850 es-
Establishments, covering twenty-five in
dustlies in Milwaukee and forty five
smaller cities. A total of $4,000 to
$4,000 wage earning women employed
in the main establishments of the state
represent approximately the number Of
wome.l in some manner to be affected
by any wage regulations that may be
made. The commission reports that it
is impossible to estimate, without ac
curate, first hand wage data, in how
many instances a change in the pres
ent wage scale would be necessary.
The findings to be permanently effective
and beneficial, SAYS the commission,
must be concerned with causes as well
as results. Solution of the problem is
sought through cooperation of employ
ers in devising means of promoting the
interests of the workers through in
creasing their capacity and value.

In his young days the poet Coleridge
had little love affair which ended in
disaster. for the lady refused him. In
despair he enlisted in cavalry regi-
ment, which he hoped would be Or
dered on foreign service, that he might
end his blighted career on the tented
field. For family reasons he dropped
his correct name. but from a feeling Of
sentiment retained the initials, so Sam
uel Taylor Coleridge became Private
Silas Tompkins Camberhatch.
The regiment did not leave the coun-
try, and 1t was not long before his soul
wearied Of barrack life and its utter
absence OF romance. His military life
ended in q curious fashion. One day
while Colerldge was doing a weary
sentry go two officers strolled past.
One OF them made use OF Greek quo
tation, which the other corrected. The
FIRST insisted on his correctness, while
the other was just as positive he was
wrong.
While they disputed. the sentry sud.

fact that numerous other attempts
