FOUR PAY FINES IN COURT
Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. Bowerman, Jerry
Ward and Sadie Butterfeld Picked
Up by Police at Midnight Visit to
the House on Sunday Evening.

The police discovered and raided an
other one of the Glove parlors' on
Sunday night and this morning had four
prisoners who had been taken in mid
night raid on a house on South Superior
street. In court this morning each
member of the quartette paid fine of
ten dollars and costs on charges of dis
turbance. In addition to this they
drew an order from the court to get out
of Kenosha and stay out.
The people who live in the house are
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Bowerman. The
couple arrested with them were Sadie
Butterfeld, a big buxom woman, who
claimed that her home was at Liberty
vile, ILL.,, and Jerry Ward, who rather
blushingly admitted that he lived at
Waukegan. Ward had evidently never
had part in any love parlor seances be-
fore and he was greatly put out when
he was brought into court Sadie adj
mitted that she had made six former
trips to Kenosha but she declared that
she had always believed Mr.. and Mrs.
Bowermann to be nice people and that
she had met them at "North Chicago"
The records failed to show any good
reason to hold Sadie on any other
charge.
The Bowermann house is located just
a few steps from the south platform of
the Chicago and Milwaukee Electric
Railway and Chief O'Hare declared
in court that he had been advis-
ed on several occasions that it was be-
ing made resort for men and women
who came to Kenosha from Waukegan
ON the south and Racine and Milwau-
kee on the north. Ward and the But
terrified woman had gone into the place
only a short time before the police ar
rived and it is declared that another
couple were looking for the house after
the lights had been put out following
the arrests. 1t is declared that sew
eral complaints have been received
against the place. The police have
gone to the house on other occasions
but at these times found nothing to
warrant arresting the inmates. Mrs.
Bowermann, motherly looking woman,
did not seem to have any great knowl-
edge of court procedure this morning
and when she came before Judge Ran
dali she cried as she entered her plea.
Sadie was inclined to whisper her plea.
to the court, but the judge insisted
that she speak up loud enough for it to
be heard by the waiting police officers.
It is expected that the house will be
closed up at once and that Mr.. and
Mrs. Bowermann will follow the m
junction of the court and find another
place to live that will not be so con-
venient to the car line The Butter
field woman was ordered to stay out Of
Kenosha and was notified that a return
trip would result on her being held on
more serious charge.

LEWIS LOSES LONG FIGHT.
United States Supreme Court Decides
Against Man Who Would Rule Zion.

John A. Levi, pseudo claimant to
the title of overseer of Zion, has met
his Waterloo. The United States cir
cult court Of appeals has just handed
down decision which turns his claims
down absolutely, and his attempts to
upset the receivership proceedings have
received their death blow. The deci-
sion handed down by the United States
court of appeals, copy Of which was
received by Voliva s attorneys at Zion
City on Saturday, was decision rend-
cred against John A. Lewis on his bill
of review which he filed against the
proceedings which were started in the
United States court before Judge Lam
dis. Mr.. Lewis wanted to upset the
receiyership proceedings and secure for
himself title to the Zion estate, and
finally to establish claim to the title
of successor to John Alexander Dowie.
The United States court, however, de-
cided otherwise. An election was held
by order of the court and Wilbur Glenn
Voliva duly elected by large majority
of the followers of the late John Alex
ander Dowie as their legal successor,
in Sept. 1906.

SEEK ITALIAN GIRL HERE.
Jennie Casaletto, Who Fled With Lover
and $500, Said to be Hiding Here.

Miss Jessie Casaletto, a Chicago Ital-
ian girl, eighteen years old, is said to
be in hiding in Kenosha. This morn
ing Desk Sergeant Christianson re-
ceived a telephone message from Mich
olas Casaletto, the father of the girl,
asking that efforts be made to locate
and arrest her in this city. According
to the story of the father the young
woman left there on Sunday in COM
pany with her sweetheart, Alfred Mar
tell, who is said to be Kenohsa man.
The father did not seem to be worried
so much over the disappearance Of the
young woman as he was over the fact
that he alleged that she took $500 with
her. The police have been looking
about the Italian colony for the young
woman, bnt they found nothing of her.

ROBBERY CAREFULLY PLANNED
Men are Thought to Have Followed
Mrs. Isen from the Bank and She
was Held Up Near Entrance of First
Bapti~. Church on South Street.

Mrs. Samuel Isen. wife of the well
known west side market man, was the
victim of holdup men on Saturday
night when she was held up and robbed
on South street near the entrance of
the First Baptist Church. The men Sc
cured her purse and forty-fve cents in
small change, but they had evidently
played for a higher stake. The men
escaped and no trace of them could be
found later in the night.
Mrs. Isen had left the meat market
Of her husband on South Ashland
avenue shortly before eight O'Clock
Saturday evening and had taken a
considerable sum of money for deposit
in the bank. She had reached the First
National Bank only few minutes be-
fore the closing hour Saturday night
and after making the deposit she had
but small sum in change left. AS
she left the bank she noticed two
strangers standing at the door and she
thought that they looked rather sharp
ly at her, but she paid no attention to
them. She had arranged to go to the
Masonic Temple and aid wives of mem
bers of the order in serving a dinner
during the evening and she walked up
South street to the temple. AS she
passed the entrance of the First Bap-
fist Church she noticed man with a
heavy mustache standing in the shadow
of the entrance, but she hurried along
toward the temple. She had just reach
ed the entrance to the alley at the rear
OF the church when she was seized by
man who had evidently been con-
cealed in the alley. The fellow threw
her to the ground with considerable
force and at the same time the man
whom she had noticed at the, church
corner came up and took part in the
robbery. fYou don't want this any
longer said one of the men as he ap-
propriated her purse and with this the
two men ran down the alley toward
Wisconsin street. Mrs Isen was great
ly frightened, but she managed to get
up and started again for the Masonic
Temple. On the corner Of South and
Chicago street she met another man
and she shouted at this fellow (Which
way did those men go?" The man
never answered her but indicated with
his head that the two men had run
toward Library Park.
Mrs. Isen told her story as soon as
she reached Tho Masonic fannie and q
search was made for the men, but
nothing was found. Evidently the men
had expected to secure a considerable
sum of money from Mrs. Isen and
they must have been considerably
disappointed.

GAVE NOTABLE ADDRESS,
Or, Graham Taylor of Chicago, Speaks
Before Kenosha Social Workers.

DR.. Graham Taylor Of Chicago, noted
for his great social work in connection
with the Chicago Commons, addressed
a large audience of Kenosha people in
terested in social work at the Guild
hall on Saturday afternoon. DR.. Tay-
Tor came to give new impetus to the
work in connection with Fellowship
House and he gave some very interest
ing details of the work along this line
an Chicago and other cities. His talk
touched on many lines. Most interest
ing of all was story of the mobiliza-
tion of the great armies for the war in
Europe. DR.. Taylor was in Europe at
the outbreak of the war and he gave
some very interesting personal expert
ences. DR.. Taylor also spoke on the
suffrage question, showing the great
advance that is being made along
this line Of the advancement of the
power of women. The lecture proved a
most interesting and helpful one to the
Kenosha people who heard it.

County Treasurer Hartman
Sends Check For $4,000
to State Treasurer Today
LARGE sum PAID FOR SCHOOLS

Kenosha county is square with the
state of Wisconsin again as this morn
ing County Treasurer Philip Hartman,
Jry sent a check to the state treasurer
amounting to $66,909.50. This covers
every claim of the state against the
city and county for state taxes and
other fees.
County Treasurer Hartman has made
his settlements with the city and town
treasurers and is now in a position to
pay all claims against the county made
necessary by the annual tax levy. The
taxes in the city and in the towns are
not yet fully collected but enough has
been taken in to make settlements for
state and county taxes from all the
treasurers and make it possible for the
county treasurer to clean up his books.
The total claim of the state against
Kenosha county this year was $780,
164.62, but before the bill was paid the
county treasurer deducted from the
amount a total of $32,255.12, which is
due to this county from the school
fund of the state. Kenosha county is
not receiving from the state this year
nearly as much as it contributes to the
support of the common schools. The
itemized report of the county treasurer
of the fund turned over to the state
treasurers shows the following items:
For interest on indebtedness S 2,505. AZ
Fo- Support of High Schools, 2,S93.63
For Support of Graded Schools 10000
For Highway Tax. ........ 16,535.02
FIR Support of State Univer-
sity Observation-Disclosures. 19,674.53
Support of Normal Schools. STA %
Common School Support. -. 33,41S.S0
Support of Charitable and
penal institutions ........ 11,573.64
School District Loans ...... 412.35
It will be noticed that the greater
portion of the amount paid by Kenosha
county to the state goes for education.
The two largest items are those for the
support Of the common schools and for
the state university. At that there has
been big reduction in the amount for
the state university this year, but the
most notable reduction is found in the
amount that is paid over to the state
for highway taxes.

Annual Ball of Elks at Ger
mania Hall is the Triumph
of the Social Season.
DECORATIONS WIN APPLAUSE

Kenosha danced for charity on We'd
nesday evening when the annual chart
ty ball Of the Kenosha Lodge of Elks
was given at Germania Hall and as in
other years the annual party of the
Elks proved the most notable social
gathering of the pre-lenten season in
Kenosha. More than three hundred
and fifty people attended the big party
and the crowd was the most congenial
one ever seen on the floor at Germania
Hall. It was an ideal party from every
standpoint and when the strains of
Home Sweet Home were started just
after four O'Clock this morning the
members of the committee in charge
were being showered with congratula-
tions on account Of the success of the
annual party.
1t would have been impossible to
have added anything to the pleasure
of the evening. The floor was in won
derful condition for dancing and the
music furnished by the Duke Smith
orchestra of Chicago proved so inspir-
ing to the dancers that at times as
many as four encores were demanded.
