father, and two brothers.
Jackson and his wife have been
living in an unfinished home for
which they have been paying as they

The first thing we plan to do is
finish our home"

POLICE HEADS
DEFENDANTS|N
$4,000 SUIT
Charge Conspiracy In Liquor
Raid to Search for Clothing
Stolen From Delivery
Boy.

Charging that Police Commission
er Ringer, Chief of Police Eberstein,
and Assistan. County Attorney
Mossman conspired to have them ar
res;ed and caused a whisky war
rant" to- be issued to search their
home at 1888 Dodge street Charles
Nature and his wife filed suit
Yesterday in district court asking
$4,000 damages from these Officials
and their sureties and from Julius
Orkin, Ed. Farrell and 9olice Of
ficers Oluf Thestrup, George Arri-
strong and John Herdzina.
The home of the McClures was
raided on the afternoon of May 7
by the police, supposedly for liquor,
but IN reality, it is alleged, to find
SUIT OF clothes which delivery boy
for Orkin Brothers had reported
was stolen from him near Twenty
fifth and Dodge streets.
The petition alleges that the police
officials used legal proceedings
wrongfully, fraudulently and ma
lciously to search the Mcclure
home and to prosecute the Nc
Clures and to injure their good
names, characters an regulations.
1t is alleged that Ringer and Eber-
stem, when julius Orkin reported
the loss of the theft, advised him to
swear out whisky warrant" This
was done, it is alleged, to gain &C
cess to the Mcclure home for pri-
vate purposes and not to search for
liquor. 1t is alleged that Ringer,
Eberstein and other defendants
knew there were no intoxica ting
liquors on the premises.
Because of the whisky warrant
sworn out and the raid made upon
their home, the McClures set forth
they have been made to appear in
the eyes of the public as bootleggers,
criminals and crooks, and not as
law-abiding citizens and they have
suffered great humiliation and have
been brought into public scandal and
disgrace and their good names have
been injured and they have been
injured in their work.
Mcclure is employed by the
Peters Trust company as caretaker
OF an apartment house. Officers of
the company say they will stand be-
hind Mcclure in his suit
Nothing was found by the officers
in the search of the Mcclure home.

Memorial Day Exercises.

There was very large gathering in
this city by Friday noon of people who
came in to participate in the Memorial
day exercises and the program as ar
ranged was carried out to the letter.
It was the warmest Memorial day in
history, according to the weather bu-
reau, but aside from this the day was
perfect in every detail. The exercises
took place in the little park between
the Mcintosh and Jensen warehouses
where a platform had been erected and
seats provided to accommodate the
crowd.
The principal address was made by
Capt. j., G. Graham of Tomah, who
was in charge of machine gun COM
pany of the 32nd division until a few
days before the armistice was signed.
Familiar with all the important actions
which the division was engaged in in
France, he paid high tribute to the
valor and heroism of the Wisconsin
men who composed that division. His
address was not only appropriate to the
day and occasion, but breathed patriot
ism throughout.
An imposing feature of the parade
this year was new patriotic organiza-
ton arising from the world war, COM
posed of our returned heroes who have
fought or prepared to fight for their
country overseas-t the World War Vet
Grams who assumed prominent part
in the exercises. A company of so of
our returned soldiers armed with rifles,
all dressed in the regulation khaki
heading the parade made striking ap-
pearance that attracted much admira
ton.

A College Town.

The Senior Class play, given by the
class of 10, was decided success.
Every character was well porytrayed
and the receipts of 5000 speak of finan-
cial success.
The play was a college type. It was
the kind which, containing many ludic-
rous situations and overdrawn circum-
stances, is the advisable sort of his
trionic attempt at commencement
season. The fact that the play kept
the audience in happy frame of mind
from it's start to it's close indicated the
fact that it pleased.
Among the characters it is hard to
pick those of whom it may be said that
their acting was best. Russell Schoen-
field, as Jimmie, was splendid. His
was the part of ''Rah Rah" boy and
the ease of manner which characterized
Russell's appearance and speeches was
highly commendable. Leland Whit
ford, as Liviticus t'The Ace of Spades,"
supplied that comedy which only
negro character can supply He did it
so cleverly that his every appearance
was the occasion for applause.
The hen pecked college professor, a
role taken by Royal Under, was splen-
didly done. His makeup and voice dis
guised him so thoroly that few knew
who was taking the part.
The three young men who posed as
'Aunt Jane" Harold Thompson, Stan
ley Slagg and Kenneth Sayre, did a
very clever bit of acting while robed in
apparel which was new to them. Their
dance and song was good and called
forth such applause that several en-
cores were responded to.
Every member of the cast, even to
those who yelled behind the scenes in
creating very realistic football game,
is to be complimented on his effort.

First Plane in Edgerton Lights on the
George Wentworth Farm.

George Wentworth Farm.
Many people in Edgerton were CIV
en- real treat last Sunday afternoon.
We have all read and seen pictures of
the flying machine, but whole lot OF
US never had the opportunity before to
get next to one on the ground, see it
rise and watch it fly. I'll say it was
some treat to have one of these lair
birds" drop right into our midst. Cliff
ton Pen Olson and Rollin Olson Of Nc
Oregon, Iowa, nephews of P. c. Brown
of this city, recently bought an aero
plane from Chicago firm and they
left that city at o'clock Sunday af-
ternoon for their home in McGregor,
reaching Edgerton about 8 o'clock and
landing in grain field back of the
Howard Wentworth farm buildings. It
was not many minutes before crowd
began to assemble and several hundred
gathered there inside of half an hour.
The machine was Curtis make and
! had been used in the war by the Cana
dian government as scout plane, and
the Canadians sold it to Chicago firm
of whom the Olson brothers made the
purchase. It will be used by them as
an exhibition machine at state fairs
and some of the larger parks. The
Olsons gave Edgert people free ex-
hibition when they arose from the
ground to start for home. It was
little after half past 4 when they made
the start, circling around above the
city several times and coming back to
where the crowd was gathered until
they waved adieu and left in the direc-
ton of their home. Everything going
right they expected to land in Prairie
du CHEN about o'clock. Clifton Oh
son was in the aviation service of the
u. S., and Rollin was in the artillery,
both having recently been discharged.
They have been in Edgerton in times
past to visit relatives, the Brown and
Child families.
After lighting the Olson boys took
the Scott Hatch car and drove down to
the city and paid short call to their
relatives who did not know they were
coming that day.
Sunday afternoon the question was
asked over and over again by people
who had gathered to see the bird men,
"What will the Wentworths say at
having their oat field trampled down?"
Listen. Mr.. Geo. Wentworth, owner
of the grain field, said: "There was q
little damage, but the honor of having
the first plane to visit Edgerton light
on your premises more than repays the
loss of the grain" That's the right
kind of spirit to have.
