ACCIDENTAL INJURIES
FOLLOWED BY DEATH

Sam Teretznko, TT Elm Street, Who
Was Injured in Accident sc Mash
Motors Co. Monday, Dies Tuesday.
Sam Teretznko, the man who receiv-
ed broken leg and other injuries when
he was run down by one of the cleo
tric trucks used at the Nash Motors
Company, died Tuesday ns@ht at the
Kenosha hospital, followir he devel-
opment of serious internal injuries. The
injured man appeared at first only to
have suffered serious but not fatal in
juries but late Tuesday afternoon a
turn came for the worst and he was not
able to rally from the shock.
An investigation of the accident
showed that the truck was following
its regular path, which is well known
through the factory, and it appears
that the driver could not be held re-
sponsible for the accident.
The deceased is well known in Keno
sha and was a favorite among his fell
low employees at the Nash Motors
Company No definite arrangements
have yet been made relative to the
funeral services.

First in American Trenches.

When the first American soldiers
were sent into the trenches on the
western from Kenosha was represented
by Private Baltzore as member of the
18th Regulars. In telling of his trench
experience the Kenosha soldier sal L:
"Of course every one knows that it is
lell, there. There Is no pie or cake
but in spite of it the spirit of the
American soldiers is wonderful I was
IN the trenches the day that word came
down the line that the Huns had eut
the throats of five American soldiers,
had cut out their tongues and left
them to terrorize our soldiers. T:
spread like wildfre down the trenches
they were members of the 10th and
we all knew them and were ready to
take vengeance. In regard to tbe
present drive, Private Baltzore said
that he knew nothing but he expresse.l
confidence that the line would hold
whether the Germans attacked the
French or Americans or British.

The men who have taken care of the
city for years are entitled to some con-

continue only so long as they are viii

business acumen and take chances Of
business. We believe that if these
men are assured that the city wants
to help the coal situation rather than
to wreck the business of a few men
that the active cooperation of these
men will be prompt.

In BANKRUPTCY COURT
Holton Brothers, Well known West
Side Cigar Dealers, Put Assets at $500
and Liabilities at S14OO.


and Liabilities at $140O.
Through their attorney, Calvin Stew
art, Holton Brothers, well known west
side. cigar and tobacco dealers, filed
a voluntary petition in bankruptcy in
the United States Court in Milwaukee
on Tuesday afternoon. The assets of
the company were placed at seven hum
dred dollars and the liabilities at
double the amount. No trustee has
been named to take charge of the bust
ness which was closed up on Tuesday.
It is declared that one of the managers
of the company went into the army
some time ago and that since that time
inability to get competent help has
made the business losing venture. For
the most part the claims against the
company are small There are many
Kenosha creditors.
No date has been set for the meeting
Of the creditors of the company but it
is expected that plans will be made to
sell the stock of the company at bank
rupt sale in the near future.

sha just in time to disprove the theory
that he was among the missing in
France. His mother, Mrs. Frances Case,
from the 18th of June until the frs
Of February had not heard a word
from him, although the Kenosha sol
der had written time and again. While
in the hospital Private Baltzore had
had the nurses send letters home for
him and he is at loss to explain why
all Of these miscarried. On the first
Of last February he wrote his mothec
that he had secured furlough and
this was the first letter to get thrcu Ugh

Regrets Inability to Serve Longer.
Private Baltzore to the ordinary
civilian appears to be just one of tho
"soldier boys" home on a furlough. In
the khaki of the regulars and with the
look Of experience which only actual
service can give he reflects great credit
on the ''first five thousand" to enter
the trenches. With his back cased in
a cast of plaster of Paris, he has been
able to visit his many friends in Keno
sha and tell them of his service to the
/" Stars and Stripes" His injuries have
left him at times unable to use his arms
and limbs to the fullest extend out phy,
sicians declare that this viii soon be

can no longer serve on the firing line
with his comrades to help hurl the
Hunnish horde and save America and
the world from despotism.

Secretary Richard F. Kaiser closed
the meeting with a very interesting
discussion of the Americanization Of
Tr, IMMIGRANTS as he pointed out how
Kenoshans could help make the foreign
population of this city more valuable
to itself, the city and the nation. The
meeting, which is the first Of 4 series
of get-together meetings planned
by the Chamber Of Commerce, develop
ed surprising amount Of enthusiasm
among the members and will lead, II is
believed, to record meeting next year.
