ARREST CARNIVAL MEN.
Two Carnival Followers Charged With
Stoning an Engine Cab Tuesday.

Two carnival followers, Edward
Houk of Cincinnati, and Harry Turner
of Boston, were arrested late Tuesday
afternoon by Police Officer Tony Bor-
den on charges of malicious mischief.
They pleaded guilty to the charges this
morning and drew fines of dollar and
costs each. Both of the men went to
jail. It seems that Houk and Turner
had planned to ride the "bumpers out
of Kenosha and when an engineer of
the North Western road objected to
carrying them free they became en-
ragged and one of the men threw 2
stone which passed through the window
of the engine cab, perilously close to
the head of the engineer. The agent
of the company promptly called the po-
lice department and the arrest of the
men followed. They are in Jail for a
ten days sojourn.
