ART TO VISIT KENosHA.
An Exhibition of American Painters is
Offered Through Woman's Club.
Free to Public,

Mrs. W. P. Robinson, president of the
Woman s club, has received letter
from the Milwaukee Art society, offer
ing the loan of an art exhibition of
American painters to be given in Ke-
nosha under the auspices of the club.
The exhibition is being sent to clubs
allied with the Wisconsin Federation
of Women's clubs, with the object of
educating the general public in art.
No charge is made for admission and
the school children are particularly
urged to attend and study the pictures.
Mrs. Robinson said the great difficulty
of finding place adapted to the needs
of a gallery, where pictures can be hung
so as to bring out the points the artist
intended to have made prominent, may
initiate against bringing the pictures
here.

POLICE OFFICER INJURED.
Expected Happens on the Stairway
Leading to the City Lookup
On Saturday.

The expected happened on Saturday
evening when police officer Charles Rock
met with severe injuries On the iron
stairway leading from the police office
on the second floor of the city hall to
the lookup in the basement of the
building. Rock and Officer Biennemann
were in charge of prisoner. To use
the vernacular of the office the fellow
was "dead to the world" Rock and
Biennemann were carrying him down
the iron stairway. At the landing Rock
slipped on the floor of the stairway and
he was thrown through the window
leading into the toilet room on the main
floor of the city hall. He was badly
cut about the face and eyes by the fly
ing glass. His injuries were of such a
nature that he was unable to be on
duty on Sunday. just such an acct
dent has been feared for some time and
the state board of control has made a
demand on the council for the enclosing
of the stairway. It is probable that
the work will now be ordered.

WANTS DIR. BLANToN.

DR.. Smiley Blanton, whose interest
ing lectures on suffering and other
speech defects have entertained large
audiences in the high school for four
successive Friday nights and who will
lecture twice more between 700 and
500 o'clock on Friday, this week and
next, has an interesting six months
ahead of him.
He will go to John Hopkins medical
school July l, after the close of the
University of Wisconsin, and for six
months will use his time to install and
conduct a speech clinic there, on the
lines Of the present one in our univer-
sity.
After that work is finished he will
begin the installation of speech clinics
in the different cities of this state.
The clinics may be some time apart,
but will be at stated intervals. For in
stance, it may be that Kenosha will
have a clinic in connection with its
schools that will be every three weeks,
or oftener or less frequent, according
to the need which exists for it.

OUT OF JAIL THREE WEEKS
Man Is Charged With Having Looted
the Room of Swedish Engineer Who
Brought His Swedish Money as
His Savings as Laborer.

Peter Tori, Kenosha italian. who
was released from the county iail three
weeks ago after serving term of sixty
days, was arrested again in Milwaukee
on Sunday evening and brought back
to Kenosha to answer charges of grand
larceny. Tori is charged with having
entered the room of John Pipe, Swe-
dish engineer in the Elk building on
Pearl street on last Monday and his
booty was unusual. Pipo has been in
Kenosha for only a little over six
months and when he came from Sweden
he brought with him 100 kronor repre-
sented by two Swedish bills. He had
these stored away in his trunk for the
proverbial rainy day. With them he
had something over $40 in real United
States money and all of this is alleged
to have been a part of the loot of Tori.
The Italian after robbing the room re-
manned in Kenosha and he managed to
transfer one of the fifty kronor bills to
James LaConte an italian living on
Valentine street and for it he received
$50 in American money. At the bank
the fifty kronor notes are valued at
$3.50. After cashing one Of the Swe-
dish notes Tori went to Milwaukee and
he was having a gay old time when the
local police discovered his whereabouts
and asked the Milwaukee police to ar
rest him. When Tori was being taken
into the station in Milwaukee Sunday
night something dropped out of his
pocket. 1t looked like the label of
cigar box but when the detectives made
an examination they found that it was
the other Swedish bank note that had
been taken in Kenosha. Tori still had
$50 in real money when he was arrested.
He refused to make any statement in
regard to where he had secured pos
session of the Swedish bank notes but
he was hurried back to Kenosha. This
morning a warrant was issued charging
him with grand larceny and the case
will come up for hearing in the muni-
cipal court late this afternoon.
The two Swedish notes are now in the
hands of the police department. and
they will be turned over to the thrifty
engineer.

exceptionally well received. Orchestra
numbers were given by the Columbus
