Opera House, Thursday, October 18th.
August Brown is training earnestly for

the others shoulder to the mat long
before the twenty minutes are over.
Ernie Birmingham, the wrestling bar
Der is forsaking his shop work to put
in the finishing touches to his past
two weeks of training. Reports from
his quarters show that he is in great
condition and all set for a hard 90
with Flamme. In letter from Flam-
me he states he is working hard for the
match. He adds if Birmingham wishes
to win he will have to do some tall
hustling. Martin Nelson, who meets
Babe Abel in the windup, is going
through his daily workouts. The big
fellow is always in good condition and
the crowd can expect some fine wrest-
ling between him and Abel, as Babe
is some wrestler himself. AS the wind
up and semi-windup will 60 the best
two falls out of three, the lovers of
the game will be treated to some fine
wrestling. The seats are on sale at
reasonable prices and already there
has been quite few calls for reserva-
tions.

BRIDE OF A MONTH NEAR DEATH
Automobile of Charles Schroeder Turns
Turtle on Bristol Road and Hus-
band and Wife Injured.

Mrs. Charles Schroeder of Grays Lake,
a bride of four weeks, was near death
on road in the town of Bristol on Sun
day afternoon when the automobile
driven by her husband turned turtle on
bad piece of road near the home of
Raymond Powell. Both Mr.. and Mrs.
Schroeder were thrown from the car
and the wife was picked up in an uncon-
scious condition. She was carried to
hte Powell home and later regained con-
seriousness. It was found that neither
Mr.. or Mrs. Schroeder had any bones
broken but both were painfully bruised
and cut. The party was on an errand
of mercy. Another Grays Lake motor
party had met with an accident and a
message was sent to Schroeder to come
out and help them out Of the ditch. Mr..
Schroeder was running along the road
at fair rate of speed when the acct
dent occurred. Both OF the injured
parties were taken back to Grays Lake
on Sunday evening.

WANTS ALIMoNY INCREASED.
MRS. Matte 3. Spalding Asks Further
Support from DR.. John 3. spalding
In Circuit Court.

LIZ S4ANuAO SOuA
Sitting in chambers at the Circuit
Court on Monday afternoon Judge Bel
den heard an argument on the applica-
tion of Matte B. Spalding for an in
crease in the alimony which she is re-
ceiving from her husband, DR.. John B.
Spalding. The hearing was not open to
the public. The Spalding divorce case
is remembered as one of the most inter
esting cases of the kind ever tried in
the local courts. When the decree was
granted Mrs. Spalding was given ali
mony for the support Of herself and
her daughter, Lucille, in the amount of
$50 a month. Later it was increased
to forty dollars month and Mrs. Spald-
ing now insists that the high cost of
living and the demand for the educa-
ton of her daughter makes it necessary
for her to ask for an increased alimony.
She suggested through her attorney
that she be allowed sixty dollars a
month. It was stated at the hearing
that DIR. Spalding had not only religious
ly paid the alimony assessed by the
court but that he had made large gifts
to his daughter on various occa-
sions DR.. Spalding remarked some
time ago and he is now living in South
America. So far as is known he has
no property in Kenosha. Judge Belden
took the petition under advisement
with a view of hearing further argu-
ment on the question.

FINED UNDER NEW STATUTE.
FFeter Pacette Who Rode His Bicycle on
the O. & M. Right of Way Pays
Five Dollars and Costs.

Don't ride your bicycle between the
tracks of the Chicago & Milwaukee
Electric railway rtacks. 1t may prove
a mighty expensive proposition. Peter
Pacette found this out this morning
when he was arraigned in the Munich
pal Court under the state law against
trespassing. This law was passed at
the 1915 session of the legislature as a
safety law. This was the first arrest
made under it in this county. Pacette
was pedalling along between the tracks
and the motorman on car found it
necessary to throw on the emergency
brake and throw a score of passengers
out Of their seats to prevent Pacette
being killed. The new law is to be
vigorously enforced by railway compa-
MES in the future. Pacette paid a
fine of five dollars and the costs of the
action but the limit under the law is
fty and costs.

CHANCE FOR MANY CLASSES
local Men Promise to Cooperate With
State and State Officials Will Spend
AL Next Week Here Working Out
Needs of City on these Lines.

Frank L. Glynn, secretary of the
State Board of Industrial Education and
his assistant, R. FL. Hillyer, of Madison,
came to Kenosha on Monday and spent
the afternoon discussing with manufac-
turers in Kenosha the work of the state
industrial board in connection with the
education Of factory workers with view
of organizing schools in connection with
the factories of Kenosha. The work
in Kenosha is to be taken up under
the direction of the Chamber of Com
merec of Kenosba and Secretary John
Lind Of that body was with the two
state workers in conferences held at
the various plants in the city. Secre-
tary Glynn will return to Kenosha next
week and spend the entire week here
outlining courses for factory men. The
State Industrial board in cooperation
with the University of Wisconsin has Of
fered many courses Of this nature and
in some of the citise of the state, courses
for shop men are maintained in all of
the factories. These courses form a
regularly graded industrial education.
They take up all sorts of work in the
shop, the handling Of lathes and FORCES
and 1T man wants to learn a better
way of operating buzz saw the state
will see to it that a class is formed in
buzz saw operation if there are stu
dents enough to take it. It is the
plan of the board to select teachers from
the Workmen in the shop. Ia other cit
les the plan has been, to select the best
men in the particular line of work
sought and have him given special in
structioh so that he may be able to best
teach his fellowworkmen. In classes
of this kind throughout the state more
han $4,000 students have already been
enrolled. Kenosha is one of the great
est industrial centers of the state but
the manufacturers here have never
taken up the work on account of the
fact that plans for it have not been
submitted to them. Mr.. Glynn on Mon
day took up the matter with the offic-
ials of the Nash Motors Company and
Simmons Company and he was assured
hearty cooperation at both of these big
plants. The local men in charge of the
American Brass Company also showed
willingness to cooperate in any work
that could be done for the education
OF the men. The Brass Company pio-
neered this sort Of work in Kenosha sew
eral years ago when it maintained at
the expense Of the company night
school for the education of workmen.
The cost of the proposed schools will
be paid jointly by the city and the
state. Under the law when a sufficient
number of students are found to make
up class in any line of work a class
is organized The expense is paid by
the city for it IS industrial school board
fund and fifty per cent is paid back to
the fund by the state
