PAY LAST TRIBUTE.
Many Friends Attend Funeral Services
of the late George Yule on
Sunday Afternoon.

Funeral services for the late George
Yule were held at the family residence
on Park Avenue at four O'Clock Sun
day afternoon. In keeping with the
simplicity of the life of Father Yule
the services were of most simple ma
ture. They were in charge of the Rev.
/. W, Corey, pastor of the First Baptist
church. Many of the older employees
of the Balm Wagon Company attended
the funeral services and paid a last
tribute to the former President of the
company by going in body to the GEM
etery Many people came from other
cities to show their respect for the de-
ceased manufacturer. Late in the aft
ernoon the remains were laid at rest in
the family plot at Green Ridge.

been used to display score Of coral
rings and other trays were found IN
the neighborhood. 1t is possible that
the thieves had an automobile await
ing for them. There was no train in
which they could have left the city af-
ter the robbery without detection and
careful scrutiny was made of all pas
sengers at the depots for the early
morning trains. The first cleW that the
police obtained was when they found
that the glass cutter, which had been
used, had been purchased at the store
of Joseph A. Pitts on Main Street on
Thursday afternoon. There were three
young men in the party purchasing the
glass cutter, but the people at the
store did not know any Of them
and it is thought that they are strang-
ers in the city.
The window had been re-arranged on
Thursday afternoon and a lot of valu-
able jewelry had been placed in it. In
the window were hundreds of uncut
stones of great value. These had been
arranged on cards showing just what
they were and the thieves made it a
point to pick the most valuable ones.
There was a large number of high
grade bracelet watches which were the
most valuable portion of the loot of
the thieves. In the window were also
hundreds of rings set with various
precious stones, there was just one dia-
mond in the window and it was set in
cavalier of platinum. Several of the
smaller rings had small diamond chips
for settings. Then there was mass
of pretty pins and odd pieces of
iewelry of wonderful handiwork in sill
yer and gold and platinum.
The thieves evidently had some idea
of the value of the things taken, and
they showed care in picking out the
most valuable things from the window.
Early this morning kilograms were
sent to other cities asking that search
be made for the thieves and that the
pawn shops be watched. A half a
| dozen suspects were picked up by the
] local police. but nothing was found

Early M forming Window
Thieves Make Haul of $500
Loot at Store of John NJ.
Regner Early Today.
ESCAPE under STORM COVER
(From Friday Daily

Window smashing jewel thieves made
another big haul in Kenosha this morn
ing when they broke one of the big
windows of the John M. Regner
Jewelry store just before dawn and
through the hole broken in the window
carried out and got away with jewels
and jewelry and silver to the value Of
between seven and eight hundred dol
lars. It was one Of the cleanest jobs
of window robbery ever put over in
Kenosha and it was so cleverly done
that it seems certain that it was the
work of experts in this particular line
of crime. The loot of the burglars was
so varied that it took several pages
Of letter paper to list the things which
are known to be taken. There was no
insurance carried on the window dis
play and the only sign Of insurance
was the tag which showed that re
ward was offered for the arrest of the
thieves and the recovery of the loot.
This tag was directly in front of the
place where the window had been cut
and smashed and the thief must have
handled this tag lovingly as he swept
the trays in the window clean of the
bles. Tt is thought that the crime was
committed between three and four
O. clock and the thieves took advant-
age of the driving storm little later

The police officer on the Main Street
beat had passed the store just after
three O'Clock and at that time the
window was unmolested. Just after
four o'clock when Merchant Police
William Smith made his round to the
corner he discovered the broken win
dow. He went to the nearest telephone
and notified the police and Regner the
proprietor Of the store and within a
few minutes the report of the robbery
had been flashed to all the police of
fcers working on the different beats
about the city. Search was made for
suspects and the roads leading out of
the city were carefully guarded. It

reported within half an hour after
the men had looted the window.
An examination of the window show
ed that the job had been done with a
great deal of care. The thieves had
taken a big glass cutter and had cut a
circular piece of glass just in front Of
the most valuable pieces of iewelry.
This had then been broken out and
pieces of the glass left shows that the
window splintered. It is probable that
the breaking Of the glass made little
noise and with the thunder Of the APP
preaching storm bombarding the city
it was easy for the thieves to get away
without the noise of the breaking of
the window attracting attention The
box in which the thieves had carried
the glass cutter was found on the side
walk in front of the window. A block
! down the street, near the Episcopal
church, was found a tray which had

helpful. His kindly interest in the
men whom he employed, often express
ed in financial aid in times of need
brought to him the love of every
one with whom he came into init
mate contact. The announcement of
his death will bring keen personal sor-
row in mary homes of Kenosha.
On January 1st, 1S48, Mr.. Yule was
married to Miss Catherine Mitchell,
daughter of the late William Mitchell.
Their home life which had extended
over more than sixty eight years, had
been a period of perfect comradeship.
Mrs. Yule, who survives her husband,
and the tender solicitude of her nus
band for her comfort had been feat
ure of his declining years.
For several years Mr.. and Mrs. Yule
had spent much of their winters in
Southern California and it was while
they were in California that Mr.. Yule
was stricken with paralysis which came
as the first cause of his long illness.
The Yule home on Park Avenue has
been known for its hospitality and for
many years Mr.. and Mrs. Yule and the
members Of their family were leaders
in the social life of Kenosha.
Mr.. and Mrs. Yule had six children,
Maria, who died in childhood; Louise,
who was the late Mrs. William Hall;
Ada, who died in childhood; William
L. Yule, formerly prominent in the
manufacturing life Of Kenosha, who
died three years ago; Harvey, who died
in youth, and George A. Yule, vice
president of the Balm Wagon Company
who survives his father. He is also
survived by two grand-sons, William
Head Yule, and George Gordon Yule
of Akron, Ohio.

Harry w. Flintz of Lansing,
Michigan, Dies in Mystery
While Visiting With Ke-
nOsha Relatives.
SERVED IN U. S. ARMY

Harry Flintz, aged 40 years, resi-
dent of Lansing, Mich, and former
soldier in the United States Army, was
found dead on the brow of hill back
of the sresidence of August Ziesemer,
332 North Pleasant Street just after
midnight this morning.
Members of the Ziesemer family who
had gone out to search for him, found
the body. 1t was carried into the
house and DR.. George E. Thompson was
called. Dr. Thompson declared that
Flintz had been dead for some time
when the body was found and that he
had probably died from acute dilatation
of the heart.
Mr. Flintz his wife and two children
had come to Kenosha from Lansing on
last Monday for few days visit with
the members of the Ziesemer family, to
which he is related. He had not been
in the best of health but there was no
reason to believe that he was near to
death. He had eaten hearty supper
with the members of the Ziesemer fam
lily and after supper he had walked
down to the North Western station to
secure tickets for Lansing, as he plan
ned to return to that city with his wife
and children this afternoon. When he
returned to the house he complained of
an acute stomach trouble. Just before
ten clock he announced that he was
going out to get some air as he felt
oppressed. When he failed to return in
course of half an hour, members of the
family became alarmed and started out
to search for him. After an hour and
a half they found his body on the hill
at the rear of the house.
Flintz had been a soldier and he had
seen considerable service with the army
in the Philippines. During this service
he contracted malaria and for six
months he had been in one of the mill
tary hospitals in the islands. After his
return to the states he was mustered
out, but ever since that time he had
suffered from acute stomach trouble.
He had been under the care of physi-
clans for some time, but they had not
thought that his ailment was one to
cause any great concern.
Mrs. Flintz was Frustrated as re
suit of the sudden death of her husband
but she plans to return to Lansing this
afternoon, taking the body with he1
and the funeral services will be held
from the family residence in Lansing
ON Saturday.
! The deceased had been prominent in
| the business life of Lansing for several
years and he was at the time of his
death one of the managers for the
American Express Company there.
The members of the family were
widely known to many Kenosha people
and the announcement of the tragic
death of Mr. Flintz will come as a
great shock to these people A large
party of Kenosha relatives accom-
panied the body to Lansing.

This attitude toward law enforce

AS most of our legislation has al
