SECOND AIR LETTER
REACHES KENOSHA
Edgar w. Croft Writes to Kenosha
Evening News Aboard Big Lawson
Airliner EnToute to New York.


Kenosha had an echo of the famous
trip of the big Lawson airliner from
Chicago to New York today when an
air letter. was received from Edgar
W. Croft, the news specialist of Zion
City, who was aboard the big airship
and authorized to write long book
for the ship. The letter was sent to
the Kenosha Evening News and gives
the following interesting inside in
formation of the famous journey:
1--WE are now facing the east and
the sky overhead is bright and clear,
although there are clouds straight
ahead of US. We are still climbing, and
are at height of about $500 feet
Ralph Diggins knows the course pretty
well, and he is giving some very vaIu-
able information concerning the course.
We have left Chicago well behind, and
are speeding to the east at the rate of
about 100 miles an hour. Ahead of us,
on the starboard side, I can see a fairly
large river winding like a snake. There
are small clouds beneath us. and now
Lake Michigan is dead ahead. Again
we are facing the east, and following
the river. It is wonderful to see the
peculiar serpentine coil of the riv-
er. We are now going right through
the clouds

LABOR DAY QUIET
PICNICS WIN CROWDS
Kenosha Has Annual Holiday of Toll
Without Demonstration on Part of
The Laborers.

Kenosha had the quietest Labor Day
in its history on Monday without even
the sign of a demonstration on the part
Of organized labor. Most of them
spent the annual holiday of the toll
ers with their families attending half
score of picnics held at various parks
in and about the city and they even
declined to 60 to Racine to march in
the big parade there Hundreds Of
them went off for automobile trips to
surrounding lake resorts and the thea
tres of the city, which offered special
attractions for the day were crowded
to the doors. The picnics were all well
attended and there was plenty Of
sporting events offered to make the day
notable.

County Meter Cycle Deputy
Has Right Ankle Broken
In Auto Collision On
Saturday Evening.
RACINE MAN UNDER ARREST
Otto Was Injured In Collision With
Automobile Of Elmer c6use At Cor
ner Of Park Street and Sheridan
Road Accident unavoidable.

Nicholas Otto, motorcycle deputy at
tached to the sheriff's office and one Of
the best known guardians Of the roads
of kenosha county, was permanently
disabled just before six O clock Satur-
day night, in collision between his
motorcycle and an automobile driven
by Elmer Couse, residing at 1926 Frank
lin street, Racine.
Otto is at st. Catherine q Hospital
with compound fracture Of his right
leg at the ankle and Couse is in jail
awaiting hearing. It was at first be-
ieved that it would be necessary to am
putate the right foot of the deputy,
but Drs. Thompson and Hanley who are
attending him believe that it will be
possible to save the foot, but Otto is
off the road for the present season and
it is possible that he will never be able
to ride again.
Otto was on his way to the sheriff s
office to report just before six o'clock
Saturday evening and was riding east
along Park street at the corner of Sher-
idan Road. Couse was driving his car
along Sheridan Road, coming south.
The deputy declared that his motorcy-
Gle was running at rate Of less than
twenty miles an hour and Couse, after
he had been arrested and brought to
Kenosha, said that his automobile was
running at a rate Of about twelve miles
and hour. He declared that the acct
dent was an unavoidable one'' The
two vehicles came together with great
force and Otto was thrown to the curb
and his motorcycle was wrecked. Couse
stopped his car, and went back and aid
ed. in placing the injured deputy in the
automobile of Charles Mantkus, who
took him to st. GATHERINGS Hospital.
BY this time officers reached the scene
of the accident. Couse had driven
away and he returned TO his home in
Racine He had not left his name, but
he was located by means of his license
tag and on Monday evening Sheriff
Meyer went to Racine. He had no war
rant, but Couse who had already been
held by the Racine officers, consented
to accompany aim to Kenosha and he
was held in the county jail over night.
Couse declared that he saw to it that
the injured man had been cared for be-
fore he left the scene Of the accident
and that believing that he was not to
blame for the accident, he had not re-
ported to any Of the officials Of Keno
sha
Otto was suffering intense pains from
his injuries today and it was esident
that he would not be able to be in court
for some time. 1t was expected that
when Couse was brought into court that
an adjournment would be taken until
such time as Otto may be in court.
Otto had been with the sheriff s
speed bunch all during the season
and he had made many arrests. The
sheriff declared this morning that he
was an excellent officer and that his
loss from the force would be keenly felt.

Phelps is Progressing.

The town of Phelps today, is rated
as one of the busiest villages in the
northern part of the state. The
chief industry that this town affords
is numbering. There are many sec
tions of timber that as yet have not
been visited by the woodsmen.
Logging operations started here
about thirteen years ago, and today
there remains a large quantity OF
timber that is to be manufactured
here.
The Hackley-Phelps- Bonnell Co.,
mill located at the north end OF
town is equipped with modern and
up to date machinery and has a ca
pacity of $4,000 feet day.
just east Of this mill is the Wis
consin Chemical plant which runs
day and night giving employment to
thirty men and manufacturing many
products that were Communicated by
the Government during the war, and
today are in big demand.
Phelps is connected with Iron Riv-
er, Michigan by a fine state road, and
therefore collects much trade from
travellers passing through northern
Wisconsin during the summer. This
place is located in the heart Of the
Lakes country and has many
summer resorts in the vicinity that
are visited by thousands of tourists
annually.
On the land where few years age
stood large tracts of timber, there are
today rapidly growing farms. The
soil is especially adapted to diversi-
fed farming and people are arriving
daily for the purpose of settling in
this district.
One Of the latest industries intro
duced here is cheese factory The
plant is to be built on the co-opera-
tive plan and a committee is now
selling stock to insure it's construc
ton. There is at present sufficient
number of COWS in the community tC
run the plant for the present, and
with the silos that are being erected
on different farms, and with the new
settlers arriving there is no question
as to its success.
