Hugh Rafferty,, ST., Aged Seventy-four
Years, Dies Tuesday Afternoon at
His Home on Prairie Avenue.

Hugh Rafferty,, ST., for more than
seventy years a resident Of Kenosha
county, died just after four O'Clock
Tuesday afternoon at his home at 500
Prairie avenue at the age of seventy
four years. The deceased had been in
failing health for several years and
had been seriously i'll for the past eight
months and for this reason death was
not entirely unexpected.
Hugh Rafferty, was born November s,

and Mrs. Peter Rafferty,, two Of the
earliest settlers in the town of Brigh-
ton. When two years old he came with
his parents to the town Of Brighton
where he liveds for more than sixty
years, and where he was one of the best
known and progressive farmers of that
vicinity. About ten years ago he re-
tired and since that time ne has made
his home in Kenosha.
On October l8, 1876, at the st.
Alphonse Church in the town Of New
Munster he was married to Miss
Bridget Pennefeather and to this happy
union seven children were born, all of
whom with the widow survive the de-
ceased. The surviving children are:
Mrs. J. T. German, of Kansasville;
Mrs. B. f. Stahl of Kenosha; Henry
Rafferty,, Of Darien, Wisconsin; Mrs.
w. B. Riley, Of Cleveland; and Frank,
Hugh and Miss Kathleen Rafferty, Of
Kenosha. He is also survived by one
sister, Miss Margaret Rafferty, of
Burlington, and by eleven grand
children. His death likewise comes as
a personal sorrow to his many friends
in Kenosha county who, knew him as
a man of sterling character and a
true friend.
The funeral services will be held on
Friday morning at ten clock at the
st. James Church after which inter-
ment will be made in the family plot
at the st. James cemetery.

RADATz SHOOTS
FLEEING MAN
Police Officers Aim Is Good
and .'Budd' Who Attempt
ed To Escape Is In
Hospital.
WOUND IS NOT SERIOUS
Man Had Been Arrested On Disturb
ance Charge and Was At the Patrol
Box When He Broke and Ran
Down the Railway Track.

Police Officer Chris Radatz of the
Kenosha police department put a
notch" in his gun handle just after
nine o'clock Friday night when he shot
a fellow by the name of Budd who
was attempting to escape. Budd is
now at st. Catherine S Hospital suf-
fering from a bullet wound in his left
leg, just above the knee, and when he
is able to leave the hospital he will be
brought down to the Municipal Court to
answer charges of resisting arrest.
Later charges of making a disturbance
may be brought against him.
Nothing is known in regard to where
the man comes from or how long he
had been in Kenosha. He refused to
give his name to the police even after
the shooting but at the hospital he said
that his name was fBudd, just plain
Budd ~ and he refused to give his other
name or make any statement further.
He was sleeping soundly at the hos
pital this morning, but it was said that
the physicians were not greatly wor-
ried over his condition and that he was
pretty certain to recover in a short
time.
Budd and another man had been
making a general nuisance of them
selves near the corner of West Main
and Elizabeth street since early after
noon on Friday. The two men went
into the Campbell restaurant and
threatened to Hclean out the place =
during the afternoon. They came back
again just before nine o clock and
started new disturbance and the po-
lice were called. Radatz who respond
ed to the call, found the two men in
front of the Rose saloon and promptly
put them under arrest on charges Of
making a disturbance. He took the
two men to the patrol call box nearby
and was ringing for the wagon to take
them to the lookup when both men
broke away from him and ran. Budd
legged it south along the railway track
as fast as he could go and his com
panion ran over into the crowd along
West Main street. Radatz saw that
he could not get both the men and he
decided to try for Budd. He called
to the man to halt, but Budd never
even hesitated and Radatz after a sec
ond warning drew his revolver and
fred. Budd was several hundred feet
away and Radaz took deliberate aim
and shot low and Budd dropped at the
first shot. He was taken to the hospi-
tai in the ambulance which had been
called to take him to- the jail.
Witnesses of the shooting declared
that Radatz had been entirely cool and
that he had given the fellow every
chance to surrender himself before
using the gun. Budd is to be examin-
ed by the police this afternoon and
they hope to get more facts in regard
to him at that time.

ton of a director to succeed George
Mahoney and to make plans for the
coming year S school work. No one
seemed to know just what all the fght
was about but there was fight and
plenty of it and il was featured with
the spilling of blood. One man said
that the old fogeysn objected to pay
ing a teacher a hundred dollars a
month to teach the school. Others
said that it was just the natural
breaking out of an old disagreement
in the district.
The teacher who was to be paid
fair salary for her work evidently had
proven her worth, for before it was all
over she rose phoenix like from the
ashes and the board agreed to hire her
for another nine months and at a salary
Of one hundred dollars month and in
addition appropriated fiva hundred dol
lars for the expenses of the school.
George Mahoney, George Gates and
Mrs. Mayer. al prominent in the school
district, were nominated for the posi-
ton of member of the School Board
for the coming year. 1t was said that
Gates and Mahoney represented the
contending factions and the compromise
for the good Of the school brought the
election of Mrs. Gates. It was Just be-
fore the election that the display of
fstcuffs came. During the struggle
the organ in the building was over
turned and one young woman tainted
while Others fled from the building
IN near panic.
It is said that the fight was partiei-
pated when one of the directors called
another one a coward The one at
tackled showed that he WASH t any
such a thing.
There was no appearance of the
school directors who had part in the
personal encounters in the Municipal
Court this morning and it is believed
that they decided to settle their diff
ferences on the field of honor rather
than in the court.
All present report a delightful time.

Timothy Colby Cox True To
Traditions Of Family Re-
turns Soon From Serving
''OId Glory.
A LONG line or SOLDIERS
Create Great Grandfather Ahner Bailey
Fights In Revolutions Grandfathers
Served In Civil War and Grandson
Follows Flag In France.

Today at Camp Mills, New York,
Timothy Colby Cox, a Kenosha soldier,
who has been serving in France for
nearly a year, received his honorable
discharge from the United States army
and ended up a family war record
which extends over three centuries and
dates back to revolutionary days. In
1875 his great great -grandfathe Abner
Bailey, of the colony Of Rhode Island
heard the call of liberty; in 1861 his
paternal grandfather, Timothy Colby
cox, Sri, and his maternal grandfather,
Joseph Bienneman, both marched away
with the boys in blue and in 1917,
this Kenosha soldier, though barely
eighteen years Of age, proved true to
the traditions Of his family and vol
.unteered to uphold the flag his grand
-sires had defended in previous wars.
The soldiers mother, Mrs. Walter J.
Cox, 976 Ann street, received word
from her son this morning that he
would reach his home in Kenosha later
in the week. His honorable discharge
from the service will be filed away
with the military papers Of his grand
fathers, and Of his great great grand
father, all of which documents are the
property Of Mrs. Cox in Kenosha, to
preserve the story of what this family
has done in the defense of the flag.
1t is believed that the record is one
of the most remarkable military rec
ords of any family in Wisconsin The
papers now held by Mrs. Cox and
showing the record Of Abner Bailey,
the great-great-g grandfather, who fought
in the first struggle of America for
freedom, are a copy Of the discharge.
from the service Of the Continental
Army and other papers telling of his
service. The patriot served under Col.
Cushing of the Rhode Island colony
and after liberty had been gained re-
turned to his home in that colony. His
body lies buried in revolutionary
graveyard in that state. The family
record In the Civil War is. attested bv
the honorable discharge papers Of
the two grandfathers, both of whom
served in the infantry.
The Kenosha soldier who will return
home in a few days has been a me-
chanician in the Aerial Corps. AT the
outbreak Of the war he was at first re-
fused because Of his age and FASTENED
to answer the call as soon as he be-
came eighteen years of age. He has
been in France for more than year
and has also been in Belgium, Italy,
Germany and Switzerland while he
has been in Europe
Private Cox will find one vacant
chair in the family circle when he
reaches Kenosha. While he was away
defending the flag, his father, Walter
j Cox was taken with a serious illness
and died last fall Word of the death
was sent to the soldier but he was of
course unable to reach his father s
bedside. He expects to reach Keno
sha the latter part of the week and
will make his home with his mother
on Ann street.

BLOOD SPURTS
AT SCHOOL meet
South Kenosha School Meet
ing Ends In Fist Cuffs and
Blood Flows Freely
AS Result.

And with the eye / left undimmed
ne viewed my damaged ncse' was the
proper report Of the school meeting of
the South Kenosha school district held
at the Mahoney school in the town of
Pleasant Prairie on Monday night and
II the reports coming from the meet
ing today are to be believed the fist
cuffs which were pulled of at Toledo
on the Fourth of July did not have
much to recommend them over a meet
ing of the School Board of the South
Kenosha district 1t is admitted by
men who attended the meeting that
blood flowed freely, that the ssie''
was passed and that contending mem
'bers OF the board came to blows. That
one of the most prominent Of the resi-
dents in the district left the school
building with blood flowing from a
great wound in his cheek, while an
other is nursing a black eye and a
badly disfgured nose. One of the
youthful contenders for advanced school
work in the district is declared to
have been thrown from the window of
the school building after he had called
one Of the distinguished members of
the board a LIAR and while he was
not seriously injured his flight through
the window is given as one Of the
causes Of the bitter personal encounter
which followed.
