PROFESSOR AT ASHLAND
TARRED AND FEATHERED.
Masked Men Take Him Into Country
and Give Him Coat of Tar
and Feathers.

Because of his disloyalty, it is
charged, professor in the North
land college at Ashland was tarred
and feathered by masked men last
Sunday evening. Mondays Ash
land Press had the following ac-
count of the affair:
Professor E.. A. Schimler, teach
er of languages at Northland COL
lege, was taken from his room last
night about midnight by nearly a
dozen masked men, taken to a
lonely spot about half mile from
the city, stripped of his clothing
and given a substantial coat of tar
and feathers.
After treating him to the coat of
tar and feathers, the men in the
party jumped into waiting auto
mobiles and sped back to the city.
They were very orderly. No one
knew of the plot and it was carried
out with such dispatch that hardly
anyone in the city, except the par
ties interested, knew of the affair
until everything was over.
Schimler, when left by the mob,
found his undergarments and walk
ed back to his boarding house.
The police were then called and the
police auto was sent at once to pick
him up. He was taken to the city
hall and later to the Y. NJ. c. A.
where he was given an opportunity
to clean up.
When he arrived at the city hall
he was in such condition that
there was no question in any ones
Iron County news. [volume] (Hurley, Wis.) 1913-1950, 1918-04-06

mind but that the mob were very
liberal in the use of tar and also
had on hand a lot OF feathers.
Schimler could give absolutely
no clue as to the parties who fore
IDLY took him from his boarding
house and the police have no clues
to work on as they were not noti-
fed until the affair was all over.
Chief of Police Blair stated that if
the police had been called when the
affair started that they would have
prevented it and arrested the mem
bers of the mob. AS they were not
notified until the affair was all over
and Schimler had time to walk back
to the city, there was no way of
apprehending them.
Schimler made claim to the police
this morning that the mob not only
treated him to coat of tar and
feathers but stole his coat and
trousers and also his watch and
other valuables from his person.
He had not retired when the mob
arrived at his boarding place but
was sitting in his room, with his
shoes off, reading.
Professor Schimler is an Ameri-
can citizen. He came to this coun
try with his parents when he was
fourteen years of age and received
his education in this country, being
a graduate of the Boys Latin school
of Boston and of Dartmouth col
lege. After leaving college he
taught school in this country and
then went to- Germany where he
taught for six years, returning to
this country in 1913. He taught
school in Carlisle, Pennsylvania
and Chicago, and came to North
land last September to teach the
languages. The college authorities

a meat market at ia west Aurora
street for many years, was struck
by an Ironwood- Bessemer inter
urban car at neon on April 20, 1917.
He sustained a fracture at the base
of the skull, and died within few
hours. Grewski started to cross the

ly in front of the interurban car,
which was proceeding westward,
