hospital late Friday afternoon as a
result of injuries received when he
was run down by Chicago and Mil
waukee electric car near the state line

he stepped directly in front of a
north bound limited train. His left
leg was cut off under the wheels of the
car The train was stopped and efforts
made to staunch the flow of blood from
the wound. The injured man was tax

people in Kenosha. Several Kenosha
people who were on the car aided in
the removal of Pike to the hospital at
Waukegan.

the neglected accounts and make imme-

are due to the wards over which they
have had charge.
Guardianship are no longer a sine
cure in the County Court of Kenosha
county. Judge Taylor has adopted a
new rule which requires that regular
reports must be made by all guardians
named in the court. In past years
these reports have not been forthcom-
ing but under the administration of
the present judge great deal Of work
has been done to get old guardianship
cleaned up and force guardians appoint
ed in recent months to comply to the
very letter of the law. Some of the
men who have been handling funds Of
guardians have chafed under the orders
of the court.
These men have been notified that
they must comply with the law to the
letter. said Judge Taylor today.
Guardianship are important matters
and while in many cases the amount in
| the hands of the guardian is small, in
most cases it is all that the person I'M
der guardianship has and to him or her
the matter becomes very important.
We have tried to impress upon the
guardians the meaning Of the law but
some of them seem to think that laws
do not apply to them They are to be
shown even if it is necessary to call
them into court by citation. Most of
the guardians have cheerfully complied
with the demands of the court and 9TH
] ers must come to the rule.n

he does not think it safe for him to
continue to live with his wife. He
charges her with extreme cruelty and
asserts that on the 21st Of Septem-
Der of last year Mrs. Leickem threat
ened him with pistol and fired several
shots at him with intent to do him
bodily harm. He asserts further that
she had a playful way of throw

At the time Of the alleged attack
with the pistol, Mrs. Leickem was ar

for a preliminary hearing the old man
appeared and made plea for the re-

time she was released from custody
and the husband signed bond for her
appearance at any time her presence
might be demanded in court. The
charge against the wife was finally
dropped from the court calendar.

|ROBERTS0NS CAREER
IS HISTORY OF STAGE
Famous English Actor Has Reen
on the Stage for Over
Forty Years.

Probably not until it is all over
not until the last curtain has, come
down and the last speech has been
made-shall we realize to the full all
that is meant by the coming farewell
of Sir Johnston Forbes-R Robertson at
the Auditorium, Monday night:
1t is not as if Forbes-Robertson
represented some half-fOrgotten re-
putation Of long ago. Somhow or
other, it is still difficult not to think
Of him, despite his 62 years, as a
young man. According tn dates, of
course, Forbes Robertson has been on
the stage 40 years, but he might have
far more reason to regard his So
journ with the Bancrofts at the old
Prince Of Wales Theatre in London
as the starting point Of his career.
He came to the London :Lyceum COM
paratively late and then only as a
guest" member Of Henry Irving's
company, engaged for special roles.
His name and fame were already es-
tablished both in London and the
provinces.
At least eight years before his Ly-
ceum days Robertson had been
helping in his own way to bring the
stage in touch with the art movement
on which the Lyceum was nurtured,
and in the atmosphere of which as a
Royal Academy student and son Of a
well-known art critic, he had been
stepped from his childhood 1t was
at the age Of q that he had first
played with that great actress who
was the high priestess of all that
makes for beauty and poetry in the
thcatre-Ellep Terry. After his de-
but as Chastelard with Mrs. ROusby
in MARY Stuart" he joined tour
ing company organized by Charles
Reade, the novelist, to present his
comedy. "'Thc Wandering Heir" in
which Ellen Terry was the star.
The career Of Forbes Robertson is
The history Of the English stag Of the
past generation. Hc has appeared
with all the notable players Of his
time and his own productions stand
out as some of the most noteworthy
efforts of the modern theatre.

sharply in Che front and tlaring up

The new scoops are as broad

One of the new models recently
