ARREST POLICE COMMISSIONERS
j. w. Adams of Kalamazoo, Mich, is
Punched for Speeding Here.

J. w. Adams of Kalamazoo, Mich,
a member of the police and fire com
mission of that city and said to be one
of the most prominent men of Kala-
mazoo, was in Kenosha on Monday.
He came near staying longer than he
had planned His commission has
made no regulations for the. speed of
automobiles in Kalamazoo and evident
~ he had an idea that Kenosha was
equally lazy in this matter as he was
burning up the streets of Kenosha at
a rate of close to thirty miles an hour
when he was taken into custody bv
Officer Clausen. Commissioner Adams
was all smiles when the officer took
him into custody and he began to ex-
plain. Clausen did not recognize the
profession for minute and told
Adams that he ought to know lot
better and took him to the police sta
ton. Adams left a new crisp ten dol
lar bill to be handed to Clerk Wattles
in settlement of the fine "Be sure
and send me the change" he shouted
as he logged off toward the north at
rate of seven miles an hour. Adams was
of the opinion that the arrest of speed.
ers would give Kenosha a bad name
but the official advised him that Keno
sha preferred 'Fbad name" to a full
grave yard.

ing north on Brockett street at high
rate of speed. The men in pursuit took
a jitney bus which was impressed into
service but the musician managed to
get away from them. Police of the
city have not as yet been able to get
any trace of him and it is thought
possible that he made his way to Ra-
cine and took a train from the city
to Chicago.
Johnston is the owner of the show
and his wife had done serpentine
dance. She was a great favorite with
the carnival crowds. His son Earl was
in charge of an exhibition known as
the Getty Osita had come to Keno
sha with the carnival and he had been
playing with the Johnston show since
the opening of the season six months
ago. He was al accordian player and
he had trouble with Johnston on Mon
day afternoon. Johnston paid him off
and discharged him and it was suppos-
ed that he had left the grounds and the
grounds by watchmen just after mid
night last night.
After the close of the show for the
night Mr.. and Mrs. Johnston and their
son had gone to bed in cots in the rear
part of the tent in which the show had
been given and all of them were sound
asleep when the discharged musician
crawled under the tent. Without
awalxing the people the fellow is al
legged to have attacked them in their
beds. The first attacks was made up
on the husband and the attack on the
wife followed. Tt was the screams Of
his mother that awakened young John
ston and he at once started for Osita.
The latter fed as the son started for
him, but Johnston caught him just as
he reached the side of the tent and the
two engaged in a bitter hand to hand
struggle.
CT don It think that he had knife, -
said the son this morning. "He
struck at me with something and it
caught me in the left wrist Then I
let go of him and he went out under
the tent and I called for help. Father
and mother had both been beaten into
Inconsistencies and I was worried
about them so I left the chase Of
the fellow to the other men who came
into help"
Osita is an italian and about twenty
years Of age. He is said to be a high
grade musician, but had been trouble
some all the time he had been at the
show It was declared that Mr.. and
Mrs. Johnston would be able to be at
the performance this evening but
Mrs. Johnston may not be able to go
on with her act.
Police in all surrounding cities have
been asked to make an effort to secure
the arrest Of Osita. He is not thought
to be armed. To young Johnston he
declared that he had gone to the tent
to get his pants and that he had no

BUILDING AIRsHIPs.
First Contracts for Material for Diri-
g1bles Awarded Rubber Company.

The first Of the proposed fleet of dir
iglbles for the United States is now un-
der way and the important order for
the balloon fabric has been awarded
TO the United States Rubber company.
The work of Constructing the fabric
Is now in progress at one of their large
factories. 1t requires much skill and
care in manufacturing inasmuch as the
success of the airship depends largely
on the strength and capacity of the
envelope.
1t is regarded as tribute to their
leadership in the rubber industry that
the United States Rubber Co. were
selected to supply one Of the most i'm
portant necessities for this new
/" dreadnought of the air.
The airship is being built by the Con-
necticut Aircraft company of New
Haven, Conn, Captain T. S. Baldwin,
chief constructor of the Connecticut
Aircraft company, supervised the build
ing Of the first German dirigible, and
of the only dirigible ever owned by
the United States army. He decided
that the United States Rubber com
pany We're best equipped to make the
balloon fabric for these important
navy airships.
The enormous envelope will be of
new and improved shape, which by
test has been proved to offer a mini
mum wind resistance and which, filed
with gas will have a tremendous lift
ing capacity. This airship when COM
pleted will be shipped to Florida where
in will be tested.
The United States government has
made million dollar appropriation for
aeronautics, and the order placed for
the navy's first dirigible represents
one of the initial expenses from this
fund.

Prohibition Leaders Starting Now In
Order to Get Going Early.


Wisconsin Prohibitionists announce
from the state secretary IS office in
Madison, that they will actually begin
their 1916 campaign on August Sth
when James II. Woertendyke of Cali
fornia, reported to be one of their
strongest national speakers, will come

The Clarions, both singers and speak
ers, follow the Woertendyke campaign
beginning September LIST, with two
meetings each week day and three on
Sunday. They will give all their time
to Wisconsin from September l, to the
winter holidays. Their task will be
to enroll voters, take subscriptions to
Prohibition papers, and raise funds for
the 1916 campaign. They have already
campaigned in the state with great
acceptability
The Pkohibs will be busy all the sum
mer holding open air meetings from an
auto in charge Of William G. Dean and
Systematically enrolling voters by per-
sonal (gum-shoe) work. A. A. Glovier,
in Waukesha county, Edwin p. West in
Barron, and A. w. Kellogg in Dane,
have been doing the latter.
Over three thousand voters have been
enrolled today in Wisconsin. One hum
dred thousand is the ultimate aim with
ten thousand in the immediate future.
The Prohibs are very sanguine forcing
the liquor question to an issue in 1916
and are working all lines of activity
to that end. They believe the day of
victory is near at hand.

MONDAY EVENING
my PHILOSOPHY"

One OF the Riley poems read pc
fore a Los Angles club on the poet
birthday as tribute to the author,
was "Nly Philosophy" which IN pa t
reads as follows:
81 amt, nor don't ptend to be,
Much posted on philosfy;
But there is times, when all alone,
/ work out idees of my own.
And OF these same there is few
I'd like to jest refer to you
Pervidin' that you don't object
To listen clost and rickollect.
81 allus argy that man
Who does about the best he can
Is plenty good enough to suit
This lower mundane institute
No matter Ell his daily walk
Is subject to his neignbors talk
And critic-minds of ev'ry whim
lest all git up and go fer himl
"The signs is bad when folks COM
mence
A-findin' fault with Providence,
And balkin' cause the earth don
shake
At ev'ry prancin' step they take.
No man is CRATE tell he can see
How less than little he would be
IF stripped to self, and stark and bare
lie hung his sign out anywhere.
My doctern is to lay aside
Confessions, and be satisfied;
Jest do your best, and praise or
blame
That follers that, counts jest the same.
I've allus noticed CRATE success
Is mixed with troubles, more or less,
And it's the man who does the best
That gifts more kicks than all the
rest"

JOHN D., JR., SEES THE LIGHT

In April, 1914, when civil war rag
ed in Colorado over the issue OF col
lcctve bargaining with miners
through unions, John ID. Rockefeller,
Jr., testified; Its great principle.
It's a national issue (to uphold the
local agents OF the owners.) We
prospose to support the officers in
their course, which is in support OF
the workingmen themselves and their
right to work for whom they please
and how they please"
The Rockefeller holdings in the
closely unionized railroads were
many times as great as in Colorado
mines, yet Mr.. Rockefeller did not
talk about spending his fathers last
cent to uphold on railroads the
great principle" that men should
work for whom they please and
how they please" That principle
did not in fact exist. Collective bar
gaining became necessity when en-
ployers began dealing with men by
the thousand instead OF by one CT
two. 1t has advantages and disad-
vantages, but it has come to stay.
Conceding at last that in region
where men were being murdered and
women smothered in tent cities the
industry might need the owners eye,
Mr.. Rockefeller went to Colorado.
lie met leading miners, men much
like himself, and talked things over.
He saw light. He now has a plan
TO propose, republic of labor"
which involves the very method Of
collective bargaining which months
ago a great principle babe him op-
pose. If the miners like as we'll as
their delegates seem to do the sug-
gestion of private labor union
confined to the employees Of one
company, that is their affair.
Only--in any case--it would have
been better for his own record and
for the honoor of Colorado if Mr..
Rockefeller had gone on his job two
years ago.--New York World.
