Thieves Burglarize Acker.
mannHotel- Get Contents
of Automatic Phono-
graph Box Last Night.
SECURE $40 IN NlcKELs

George Higley, former alderman Of
the old fourth ward, former member of
the water commission, and now the
lessee of the Ackermann hotel at Twin
Lakes, had occasion to call the sheriff
this morning. When he went into his
renovated palace of pleasure adjoining
the hotel out at the lakes this morning
he found that the place had been Wis
tied by burglars some time during the
night and some forty dollars in nickles
had been taken.
The suggestion that it was all nickles
might suggest slot machine robbery
and so it was, but it was not one of
the gum vending devices that are
installed in ONE lake side resorts but
one Of those music boxes where you
drop the money in the slot and just
get a full nickle's worth Of music
without any chance of getting beer
chips that are good at the bar. The
automatic monograph at the Acker-
mann was put in some time last sea
son and it had ground out can after
can of music and the nickles had Just
been allowed to accumulate. The
other day Higley looked the machine
over and decided that there was about
forty dollars in the box and he mott
fed the man who owned it to come on
out and open it and split the profits.
Probably some hanger-on heard the
remark and he decided that it would
be a shame to let some forty dollars
OF Twin Lakes money go to Kenosha
or some other place. At any rate the
place was burglarized last night. The
thieves broke open one of the windows
and managed to get in and once in the
place they gave their undivided atten-
tion to the work of breaking open the
strong box of the photograph. There
was small sum of money in the cash
register and a smaller sum in the box
behind the bar but this was not
molested
It is evident that the thief was a
patriotic one and simply went into the
place to prevent the money going out
of Twin Lakes.
There were lot of people hanging
about Twin Lakes during the past few
days and it is possible that one of them
may be able to give some details of the
robbery. No arrests have been made.
Sheriff Stahl is going out to look into
the matter later in the day and he
may get a clew which will aid in pick
ing up the guilty party.

TRUCKERS COMING HOME SOON
Big Bill Biennemann Says That
ALI the American Troops are
Out of Mexico Now,

Chief Of Police Owen O'Hare this
morning received a letter from William
Biennemann who has been with the
Kenosha truck drivers in Mexico in
which he states that he expects to re-
turn home in a short time. All of
the American troops are now out Of
Mexico writes Biennemann, and we
expect to come home soon. The let
ter was written from Columbus on May
25th. This statement is not entirely in
keeping with the censored news reports
which have been. sent out from Column
bus and from these reports many peo-
pie have believed that it might be sew
eral months before the troops were out
Of Mexico. Letters from other men
from Kenosha who have been with the
truck units also indicate that they
are to be sent back home within the
next few weeks.

FORTY GO TO RACINE.
German Lutherans Enthuse Over Hos.
pice Idea Raise $4,000 for Tt
Kenosha Has no House for One.

Forty Kenoshans went to Racine on
Sunday to attend the convention of the
Walther league under the auspices of
the German Lutheran church.
The Rev. G. Buenger headed the dele
cation from Kenosha and was one of
the chief speakers among those Of the
seventeen societies represented there.
The attendance at the sessions was 400
and the delegates were all enthusiastic
over the hospice question which was
given much time in the discussions,
Over $1,000 was raised in the meeting
toward the fund for the new Milwaukee
hospice
The purpose Of these hospices is to
give protection to the hundreds of
young girls who come to the large cit
les annually seeking employment and
who are without home influences. 1t
makes their lives pleasanter than they
could possibly be if spent in a boarding
house and it protects them from the
thousands of unsupported dangers which
beset the young girl having to earn her
own living.
The present Milwaukee hospice is
not large enough to care for all the
applicants who would seek its shelter.
1t is necessary to raise $4,000 to build
a suitable home to replace the present
one, and the Racine contribution will
go long way toward aiding in this
laudable enterprise.
Their is a committee representing
the German Lutheran church in Ke-
nosha with funds raised for the estab-
lishment of such hospice under the
auspices of the church here. Since last
November this committee has been
lookin G for desirable building to
house such club in which girls who
are working and have no families in
Kenosha might live. So far no such
place has been found and the plan is
temporarily abandoned.

BURNS GOES UP FOR A YEAR.
Man Arrested on Horse Stealing
Charge is Taken to State Pri-
son at Waupun.

Robert Burns, who claims that his
home is in New York and who was ar
rested on last Friday afternoon charg-
ed with stealing a horse belonging to
the Kimball and Kraii stables, was
sentenced to term of one year in the
state prison at Waupun by Judge Ran
dali in the municipal court on Satur-
day afternoon. Burns pleaded guilty
to the charges against him. He failed
to give any good excuse for taking the
horse, but he made strong plea to the
court to be given another chance
Burns insisted that all of his relatives
were either dead or uninterested in
him. The police will make an effort
to find out something about the form
er record of Burns.

eighty years; how singing schools came
into existence and Watts Hymns made

S24o0 OF OLD DEBT PAID OFF.
Fefunding Bonds Sent from Many
Parts Of the County Paid Off
by the City Treasurer

Wy Jig 0Aoy Treasurer.
$4,000 of the total of $4,000 out
standing refunding bonds of the city
of Kenosha has been paid and the old
bonds are now in the hands of the city
clerk ready for cancellation While
these bonds were issued nearly twenty
years ago this has been the first call
that has been made for the payment of
any of them. $4,000 worth of the re-
funding bonds were secured through A.
+. Leach & Co. of Chicago, and SIS, 900
worth Of them were sent in through the
First National Bank here. Later in
the month it is expeced that another
$4,000 worth of the bonds will be paid
off. Many of these bonds are held by
wealthy men and women in the far
east and some of these people have re-
fused to turn them in for payment,
holding that they preferred to retain
the bonds until the end Of the period
for which they were issued. A eonsid-
cradle sum has been saved to the city
by the retirement of the bonds before
the regular interest payment period.

PUPILS SHOW PATRIOTISM.
Children From Homes Where Parents
Cannot Speak English Write on
Memorial Day.

The way children of foreign parents
absorb patriotism in the public schools
is illustrated in the two little essays
on Memorial Day which follow and
which were written by children, one a
boy and one a girl, coming from differ
ent families, neither of whom hear any
English spoken at home.
The one which follows is by an
italian girl of nine years. It was writ
ten, as were similar essays by every
other member of her class IN the Balm
school, upon the simple suggestion of
the teacher, without detailed instruc-
ton, 'sto write story about Decora-
ton Day"

COUNTYBOARD MUSTACT NOW
Somers Voters by Majority of 20 Votes
to Issue $4,000 and Pleasant Prairie
by Majority of 20 Would Issue
Bonds to Amount Of $4,000.

The towns of Pleasant Prairie and
Somers on Saturday voted in favor of
issuing bonds to complete the building
of roads in these towns. By ma
Jority of nineteen votes the town of
Somers voted that bonds be issued to
the amount of 100000, and in Pleas
ant Prairie by majority Of twenty
nine votes the people elected to issue
bonds to the amount of 100000. Only
portion of this must be paid by the
towns, as the scheme contemplates the
issuance of bonds by the county to an
amount of third the total and sup
Elementary road bonds by the state to
the amount which would be appro-
priated for work in these towns by
the state road funds.
Before the vote for bonds becomes
binding on the towns it will be neces-
sary for the county board Of Kenosha
county IN special session to provide for
the issue of the county S share Of the
bonds. No call has as yet been made
for the special session of the county
board to act on the matter, but it is
expected that the call will be issued
just as soon as the result of the bond
election is certified to the county clerk
by the town officials of the two towns
and as soon as it is shown that all pro-
visions Of the state law were com
piled with in the calling Of the special
election.
The vote was large in both Of the
towns considering the fact that it was
an election on a 81 little ballot Two
hundred and five votes were cast in
Pleasant Prairie and exactly the same
number in Somers. The majorities are
sufficiently large to leave NJ doubt It
that the people Of the two towns IRE
favorable to the immediate building
of the roads.
Some question may be raised by OBJ
lponents to the road bonds as to the
sufficiency Of the notice for the cleo
ton and if such a question is raised
the matter will be referred to the at
torney general. IF he holds that the
notice given by the town officials was
not in complete compliance with the
laws of che state it will be necessary to
hold a second election. Friends Of the
road bonds seem to be certain that on
a second election the result will be the
same. They even assert that on a sec
ond election the majority in favor Of
the bond issues will be even larger.
The most interesting feature of the
election is the fact that the bonds pro
vided for will make possible the imme-
date completion of the Sheridan Road
in both Pleasant Prairie and Somers.
The county board by straw vote has
agreed to issue the bonds demanded
from the county and if speed is shown
in handling the proposition it would be
possible to have the road work done
before the end Of the present year. It
is not expected that any opposition
will develop on the county board and
the officials Of the Wisconsin state
highway commission have given assur-
ance that the state will carry out it's
share of the work.
People Of the two towns will watch
with interest any movement to force
new election as they are anxious not
to have the work delayed so that it
would have to be laid over until 1917.
