Wisconsin to continue to guard over
the moral and social welfare Of the

that the last soldier will have been

time the Y. M. G. A. will already
have it's seven equipment tents es-
tablished III the south awaiting the
coming of the soldiers.
Nowhere was the announcement that
the "Y" would follow the soldiers
under the same management as here
tofore greeted more enthusiastically
than among the soldiers themselves
who have learned to make use of the
varied activities of the organization
and to know and respect the officials
in charge. It is now assured that f..
A. Hathaway, who has been at the
head of the Wisconsin work, will be
put in charge of one of the brigades at
Waco and probably the one which will

Railroad Accident
Has Fatal Ending
mar, Born Shortly After Mother Is
Hit by Engine. Dies Sunday Eve.


Mrs. Max Waldomar, 1914 Orchard
street, was struck by freight engine
about eight O'Clock Saturday evening
at the Third street crossing of the Ke-
nosha Division, when she failed to see
the approaching switch engine She was
taken Immediately to the Kenosha Hos
pital where physicians declared that no
serious injuries were received Early
Sunday morning a daughter was born
to Mrs Waldomar ard died eight hours
later, perhaps due to the accident.
From pedestrians who saw the acct
dent it was learned that Mrs. Waldomar
evidently stepped upon the tracks with
out looking for any locomotive as the
approach was clear and the engine car
ried brilliant head light. The engi-
neer had the locomotive completely
under control and it was brought to a
complete standstill after dragging the
victim only eight feet. The fact that
the street-lamp was out may account
partially for the fact that Mrs. Waldo
mar did not realize the peril in which
she walked. The victim of the accident
is reported this afternoon as rapidly
recovering from the effects of the ac-
cident. No arrangements have as yet
been made as to the funeral services
of the infant daughter.

ninety-nine years old and was one of
the pioneer residents of Kenosha She

Joseph Daltor, Has
Miraculous Escape
County Income Tax Assessor Narrowly
Misses Death in Train and Auto
Collision at Salem.

Joseph Dalton, the popular store
keeper of Silver Lake and the income
tax assessor for Kenosha county, mar
rowly escaped deaf on Wednesday af-
ternoon when the Paige touring car,
which he was driving, was struck by
a locomotive at the Salem crossing.
The collision occurred about $3.50
o clock and was witnessed by the usual
crowds on the station platform and
the hotel porch of the neighboring
village. The car was almost de-
molished, but Mr.. Dalton escaped
with a wrenched ankle.
The accident happened in a rather
peculiar way. The trainmen were ex-
ecuting a flying switch as Dalton drove
south toward the crossing along the
main street of Salem. In the manoeu-
vers of the engineer and brakeman a
freight car was sent out along the
switch while the locomotice moved east
ward along the main track. Dalton
saw the freight car but not the engine
and consequently drove on the track
in the very path of the locomotive.
Perilous as his position was, he still
retained unusual presence of mind and
as he saw the engine approaching
thrust his foot upon the accelerator.
The impulse acquired from this action
sent the car lurching forward and saw
ed his life. Had it not been for this
the front of the car would have been
struck exactly and certain death for
Dalton would have inevitably resulted.
AS it was he was thrown from the car
with considerable force, but escaped
with nothing more serious than a
Wrenched ankle. The trifing injury
sustained seemed hardly short of
miraculous to all who witnessed the
accident and has been a source of con
tinual wonder to Mr.. Dalton himself.
The car was not so fortunate as its
driver. Hit amidships it was carried
down the track as far as the station
and left a total wreck. The engine is
still capable of some response but will
require overhauling to make it of any
practicable use. The body was com
pletely demolished and scattered along
the track on either side Of the right
of-way. AT that the tax assessor was
lucky. He lost his car but saved his
life and that something anyway.

passed an automobile with another in
tow and just as he passed the two ears
he was confronted with ear coming
from the east. He turned to the south
but lost control of his steering wheel
for a second and the car skidded across
the road and went into the north ditch
The automobile did not turn over, but
it went into the ditch with such force
that the men were thrown from their
seats. All OF the members Of the party
had slight injuries but they were tick
led to get off without more serious
hurts. The members of the party
were brought into Kenosha by other
members Of the singing society and
the car was left in the ditch until

The desire of Germany is not so
much for peace as to put an end to war.
The Germans want to end war and they
went to end it on their own terms.
The other nations likewise want to end
war but they want to get peace on
terms which will make it impossible to
again have the same kind of war. When
Germany wants to accept such terms it
is going to be easy enough to get
peace.
