KERANEY FOR CONGRESS.
First District Democrats Endorse Ra-
cine Man as Opponent to Con-
gresham III. A. Cooper

Thomas M. Kearney of Racine, one
of the best known of the Wisconsin
lawyers and candidate for United
States Senator two years ago, was
given the unanimous endorsement as a
candidate for congressman of the first
district by the district Democrats in
session in Milwaukee on Wednesday
afternoon. 1t is said that month ago
Mr.. Kearney sent a letter to one Of
his closest political friends declaring his
willingness to make the run if he had
the unanimous endorsement of the first
district Democrats. Mr.. Kearney was
a disappointment to his friends when
he made the race for United States
Senator and he was far behind Paul
O. Husting in the vote. However. he
was given an excellent endorsement in
his home county and in Kenosha
county and it is thought that he would
make better run for congressman.

HALF CENTURY OLD ERROR.
Title to Land in Town of Paris Made
Doubtful on Account of Oficial
Error in 1867.

An error of one word made in the
recording of deed to lands in the
town of Paris on November Ii, 1867,
which made the title to the property
very doubtful, has just been discovered
and corrected When A. S. Cole was reg
lister of deeds way back in the sixties,
the deed was fled for record. 1t had
been written in long hand and the writ
ing was not any to legible. In the
recording of the deed Cole had inserted
the word sfeast' where it should have
read nwest.' just recently the own
er of the land sought to sell it and when
an investigation was made it was dis
covered that for a good many years
the owners of the land had no title,
but on the other hand they had title
to a large tract of land in another
quarter section. The old trunks about
the house were searched and the origi-
nal deed found and it was fled for
record in the Office of the register of
deeds today.

Too Young to Ask For It.


The Importance of giving the baby a
drink of fresh water frequently in this
hot weather is so urgent that mothers
cannot be reminded of it too often.
The tot old enough too lisp his desire
though sometimes a sufferer because he
is told "to wait - is not nearly so dis

all the poor little unfortunate wants is
drink of water When the mercury

often "just about die for want of a

Brown s dinner hour was 1880 p. m.
Too late for Billy to be up and so his

1t was very hot night in August,
the day had been trying and Mr.. Brown
was not in the best of spirits. The din

floated down from the top of the stairs.

her dinner.
Father related the happenings of the

Mason S new touring car when she was
interrupted.
Muvver-tan I have dink?"
When dessert came the Browns had
been interrupted at least six times by
their insistant son and heir, and Mr..
Brown IS patience was at an end when
wee voice full of tears rang out.
Muvver, Use so firstly, L wants a
dink.
"see here son, you get to bed and

called up the fond parent, who then
sat down to finish his coffee and cigar,
thinking he had settled the matter.
Dinner over the Browns made ready
to enjoy the GOODNESS of their porch.
About to step out a faltering, quivering
voice broke the stiffness.

Don't forget that the baby needs

permanent fund of contribution instead
of the spasmodic system now existing.
The idea is to raise monthly sum, not
only so long as the war lasts but to
continue after the war ends for as long
time as conditions among the Jewish
people abroad shall warrant it.
Each individual pledged himself to
contribute monthly such a sum as it is
possible for him to do and the. sum will
be, all told, 800 or more.
"This work has become nationwide
among the Jewish people and at the
last Chicago meeting held In May over

tributing $4,000. We feel that at the

The meeting was opened by Mr.. Ep.

SEARCH LONG FOR The BODY
Young Man and Companion Had Gone
to the Beach to Bathe-No One Saw
Him Walk off Into Treacherous
sinkhole Left from Excavations.

Old Lake Michigan claimed its first
toll of life for the summer season off
Kenosha on Saturday night when Steve
Nemet, an Austrian who formerly re-
sided with his mother, Mrs. Eva Nemet
at 81 Milwaukee avenue, was caught in
a treacherous undertoW in the excave-
tion which had been made for the new
intake for the water company just east
of the city bathing beach.
It is thought that he met death in the
sink hole there just before seven o.
clock. His body was recovered by Cap
tain Fountain and members of the life
saving crew just after eleven clock
and taken to the station.
Nemet was employed in the shipping
room of Simmons Company and he was
widely known among the younger
Austrians of the city. Just before six
0 CLOCK Saturday evening Nemet and
his friend, Mike Laksich, who boarded
at the Nemet home, went down to the
beach to battle. Laksich was an excel
lent swimmer, but young Nemet could
not swim a stroke. The men left their
clothes at the bath house and went into
the lake. After a little time, Laksich
went over to the north pier and Owed
off and swan around to the beach He
went to the bath house to dress and
then started to look for Nemet. Al
though there were many people bathing
at the beach at the time, none of them
had heard any cry for help or had seen
the other man. Laksich found Nemet S
clothing at the bath house and he went
to w. j. Frazier, in charge of the ad-
joining bathing beach and told him
that he feared that his companion had
met with an accident. Frazier and his
mer at once started a search but they
could find nothing of the missing man
and just after nine O'Clock Captain
Fountain was called to the beach. At
ter some further search Captain Foun-
tain set two men to dragging in the
sink hole which had been excavated for
the water intake. After two hours of
dragging they found the body of Nemet.
Efforts were made to resuscitate the
man but he had probably been dead
for several hours. The remains were
taken to the Hansen morgue and Coro-
ner Millager, who was at the station at
the time, declared that he would make
further investigation into the case.
Nemet was born in Austria, March
LIZ, 1893. He came to this country four
years ago with his mother and he had
been her support since that time. He
was unmarried.
The city was criticized on Saturday
night after the finding of the body on
account of the fact that some protec-
tlo1 had rot been thrown about the
dangerous sink hole left by the men
laying the water intake. It is said 5hat
buoys had been placed there, but evi-
IDENTIFY young Nemet did not see them.
