TRUCKS BUILT RELIABLY.

"It's a far cry from the motor
truck OF today to the FIRST models "a
the start OF the industry" says q. A
Kissel, president OF the Kissei Mo-
tor Car Company.
IWhen truckc were frgt placed OIL
the market for general sale. they
were far from being reliable hI uI. MY
units. In fact. most OF tho I ucLS
then sold were simply express bodies
mounted on passenger car chassis
with lower gear r4tios.
To-day trucks are built OF the best
possible material obtain able on the
American market. Steels have b. en-
developed especially for trucks. so
that lightness and strength are con-
bIned.
Motors have been specially but
for trucks. where formerly hey wer-.
only developments OF passenger c. =
motors with few changes.
Dealers are selling trucks aIcng
business lines. where 10 merly men
bought trucks because they thought
they ought to buy them. Now tIucks
are sold on their merits alone"

Urged to Vote
for Committeeman
Republican Voters Are Urged to Write
in Choice for Precinct Commit
teeman by State Body.

Charles Holderness, county clerk,
has received a telegram from Cameron
W. Frazier, secretary of the Repub-
lican state committee, calling attention
to the fact that Republicans must
write in the name of their precinct
committeeman in the primary election
The state organization urges all Re
publicans to act on this since it is
necessary that these men be named in
order to complete the organization
throughout the state, A failure to
name committeeman would result in
the selection of inefficient workers for
the party it is said.
The telegram reads as follows:
'It has been brought to our atten-
ton that in some counties in previous
years doubtless through oversight. the
proper space on official primary ballot
has not been provided as required by
law for writing in name of precinct
committeeman. We urgently request
your careful personal attention TO see
that this is done in your county for
official primary ballot this year. Wire
us collect if this has been done"

Not DrOWned

Dave Fogwell, out at Lily Lake, in
charge of the Boy Scout camp, had a
lot of good things said about him to-
day. Every one was telling how good
he was and how much he had done for
the boys. 1t was all true, but the
obituary mention" was little mis-
placed as the wild rumor which went
round the town like wild fire today
that the scoutmaster had been drowned
at Lily Lake did not have any
basis whatever.
Heard you were drowned" a News
reporter who motored all the way out
to Lily Lake shouted to the tanned
leader of the Scouts. Nothing to it,
declared Fogwell in person. II haven't
been drowned; there hasn't been any
suggestion of an accident here, and !
haven't the remotest idea how any such
story could get started"
"Pull the Mark Twain stuff" con-
tinued Fogwell, "and say the reports
of my death are greatly exaggerated
The tired reporter who had burned up
the road all the way to the lake got an
excellent dinner for his trouble. "He
is a great Fogwell and it's great
Scout camp" was his report.

STATE BOARD FAILS
TO INCREASE RATES
Railroad Commission Boosts Freight
But Balks at Passenger Rate Change
in Decision Made To-day.
(By Associated Press.l

Madison, Wis.-The need for two
cent passenger fare rate in Wisconsin
will go into the courts as result of
decision of the Wisconsin railroad
commission on Monday denying that
it has jurisdiction to increase passen-
ger rates in this state The railroad
commission, however, granted increas-
es in freight rates, am counting to ap-
proximately $3.50. "The rates in effect
for transportation are, with minor ex-
ceptions," said the decision, prevail
ing on February %, 1920, the date Of
on which federal control ceased and
the petitioners with one exception,
operate almost wholly within the west
ern classification territory" says the
decision. The petition is similar to
the petition filed with the interstate
commerce commission under the trans
portation act of 1920 which provides
that the said railway operating in
creases of the carriers as a whole or
the carriers as a whole of such groups
as the interstate commerce commits
sion may designate. 1t shall equal
fair return upon the aggregate of the
railways properties held for and used
in the service Of transportation. "Tak-
ing the country as a whole the intra-
state state rates are not in harmony
with the interstate rates in the same
territory" says the commission The
present transportation act provides for
cooperation between interstate com
merce commission and the state com
mission

night his business associates and his
close relatives were at his bedside. In
the little company were Father"
Pacini bowed with a weight Of sorrow;
Mrs. Lena Lencioni, sister; Mrs.
Agnes O'Brien, Mrs. Alice Davenport
and his secretary. While Mr.. Pacini
had appeared to recognize these close
business associates during Sunday, he
made no statement to them as to
the shooting.
The members of the little party were
SO overcome with grief over the death
of Mr.. Pacini that even today they
hesitated to make any statement.
Recalls Old Threat.
Attorney Calvin Stewart, who was
the personal attorney for Mr.. Pacini
and handled his business interests, de-
clared to the police on Sunday after
noon that he knew of no business rea-
son for any one to seek the life Of
the well known theatre manager. "The
only thing l ever heard from any one
derogatory to Charley Pacini," said
Mr.. Stewart, "was the statement of a
Chicago man. Some four or five years
ago this man said in my presence Il
am going to get him." Stewart said that
he did not know where the man was
at this time and he had no knowledge
that he had been in Kenosha since the
day when he made the statement. The
information was given to the police
in detail and the name Of the man is
in the hands of the police. The police
officers gave little credence to this
story and worked on the theory that
Pacini had been killed by some one
who had sought to rob him of his
money and his valuables.
At the Pacini home on Halberstadt
Court scores of people came this morn
ing to offer sympathy to the stricken
family. The little parlor Of the home
was filled with people and they came
from all walks Of life. The mayor of
the city called during the morning and
the automobile of Congressman Ran
dali stood near the house while he sent
to ask if there was anything he could
do for the members of the family.
Many people just stopped at the door
to say "I'm sorry" Tears were on the
faces of many people who came to the
house and they attested to the high
regard in which the dead theatrical
leader was held in the city.
There we're many stories aAoat of
conversations between the injured man
and officials following the shooting.
The sheriff called at the hospital on
Sunday morning and talked with Mr..
Pacini who was his deputy. "The fell
low was about thirty years of age and
wore black Clothes" Pacini told the
sheriff but he gave no further state
ment.

HORSE KILLED
PEOPLE ESCAPE
Horse Driven by Christ To-
sen Killed in Strange
Automobile Accident.
FOUR ESCAPE INJURY

In one of the strargest auto acct
dents that Kenosha has ever known,
horse owned and driven by Christ
lbsen, farmer along the Geneva
road, was killed just after eight thirty
o'clock Saturday evening while the
four occupants of the buggy, to which
the horse was hitched escaped seri-
Gus injury when the, vehicle was struck
by an automobile. Tsben with his
wife and daughter and Dottfriend
Bjorm, were riding home in the buggy
along the Geneva road near the Ben
Stahl home west of the city limits.
An automobile, driven by Charles
Earlier, struck the buggy from the
rear and threw the occupants out CT
it to the side of the road. The bug
gy crumbled beneath the force Of the
blow and piece of iron was thrown
into the horses flesh, cutting deep
wound. The horse bled profusely and
was shot to put it out of it's misery.
Persons Slightly Injured.
Earlier stopped his car Immediately
fore help could be secured for it.
and took care OF the people who were
in the buggy. They were hurried to
Kenosha where they were taken to
the Office of DR.. Robinson. None Of
them was injured seriously but all
we're badly bruised as result of the
accident. Later in the evening all
of them were able to be taken to the
home of friends in Kenosha
It is said that Earlier was unable tc
see the vehicle until he was directly
on it and that he was then unable tc
avoid a collision. Those who were in
the accident consider themselves ex,
tremely fortunate that they were not
more seriously injured. The car was
not badly damaged and it is thought
that the damage for the collision viii
be settled privately.

Sheriff's Force See At
tempt to Liberate Pris-
Oners from Jail.
TAKE CAMPING PARTY
Four Chicago Boys Picked Up
at Truesdel but Relatives
Come to Secure Release.

Four Chicago boys, who declared
that they were on their way for
camping trip near Libertyville, H., but
who were not able to give a very
straight account of themselves, were
held at the county jail on Sunday pend
ing an investigation. The boys were
taken into custody by Sheriff Meyer
near the Truesdell station early Sun
day morning and they were held pri-
marily on account of the fact that it
was thought that someone of them
might know something in regard to the
shooting of Charles Pacini. Nothing
was found to connect the boys with
this case but early this morning brok-
en- pieces of two metal saw blades were
found on the sidewalk at the west end
of the Jail and the boys were held
pending some investigation into the
saws. It is thought possible that a
jail delivery had been planned but
while the saws appeared to have been
given hard usage, none of the bars at
the Jail showed attempts to saw them
in two.
Just on Camping Trip.
The boys gave their names as Joseph
} Thompson, IT; Cornelius Ely, II;
Charles Evanson, II, and George Ethan
and all of them lived on Lockwood
avenue in Chicago They declared that
they had taken passenger train as
far as Deering and leaving the train
there they had jumped on freight
train and had ridden as far as Trues-
/ dell. They said that they had slept in
! the grass near Truesdell on Saturday
night.
Early today Attorney Frank M. Ely,
a cousin of one of the boys. came to
the county Jail and demanded their
release and held that there was no
/ cause to hold them. Later on the
mother of one of the boys came to
/ Kenosha and she asserted that the
4 boys were simply on a camping trip
and that not one Of them had ever
done anything to give suspicion
against them.
Undersherif Ritter who found the
saws on the sidewalk at the jail this
morning declared that he could not
understand their presence there. Moth
ing had been heard during the night
to indicate that anyone had attempted
to escape from the jail but it appeared
evident that the saws had been broken
I at the jail window. =
The four boys were all certain that
they had not communicated with any
one and that certainly no effort had
been made to saw the Jail bars to
secure their release. No prisoner Of
note is in the Jail and it is thought
possible that the saws might have
been thrown near the Jail window as
a joke.
Sheriff Joseph Meyer refused to re-
lease the four lads this morning and
declared that they would be held in
custody until six o'clock this evening
until a thorough investigation could
be made. He declared that while he
had no chain of evidence to link up
with the murder of Charles Pacini,
he did not intend to release them I'M
til all of the suspicious acts of theirs
could be cleared up to the satisfaction
of all.

CANNIBALS DID
NOT STOP HIM
Hero, Who Will Speak Here
Sunday, Was Unafraid
of Head-Hunters.
CIVILIZED SUMATRA

The man who found the key to the
it unlocked the doors of Borneo, Java,
and Sumatra to western civilization, is
coming to Kenosha. DR.. John r.
Denyes, traveller, missionary and ex-
plorer, will speak both Sunday morn
ing and Sunday evening in the newly
frescoed auditorium of the Park Ave-
nue. Methodist church.
The distinguished missionary has
only recently returned from four
teen years service in the Malaysian
Islands. His experiences there have
been such as to make him one of the
most popular speakers on Japanese
culture now appearing in the pulpit
or on the Chautauqua platform. He
was prevailed upon to come to Keno
sha only through the personal solici-
tation. of the Rev. 0. w. Taylor, who
was classmate of his at Garrett BIZ
blical Institute in Evanston.
Predecessors Eaten by Cannib Is.
Something more than twenty years
ago DR.. Denyes set out for the coral
islands that crown the Indian Ocean
He knew that his predecessors had
been captured by the head-hunters and
had died horribly at cannibal orgy
It did not brighten him. He felt that
he had mission among the Javanese
and he was determined to fulfill it.
His first guide in Borneo proudly
showed him the skulls of thirty five
enemies. DR.. Denyes was Mortified
but undaunted. In less than month
he had persuaded the man to cease
collecting death s-heads.
For weeks he lived among the can
nibals of Sumatra who had eaten
earlier missionaries sent to them. His
first assistant in his work there was
willie, descendant of man-eat-
ing chief of the Islands. How thor
oughly he changed "Willie's" per-
spective in life may be judged from
the fact that in two years time evil
lie" had opened two Christian schools
in Borneo and had 125 boys studying
under him.
His influence spread throughout Ma
laysia until recently the Sultan of
Sambas pledged money, much money
for a Methodist hospital in the heart
of Mohammedan Borneo.
Nine other such hospitals will soon
be built in Java and Sumatra.
A Lecturer at Drew.
DR.. Denyes has not been entirely re-
sponsible for the expansion of Chris
tianity in the Indian Ocean, but he
has been prime factor in the move
ment. As early as 1905 he had estab-
lished school systems among the head
hunters and had practically elimin-
ated cannibalism. As recognition Of
his efficiency and experience he was
chosen special lecturer on Missions
at Carrot Biblical Institute and Drew
Theological school for the 191e-192O
school term.
DR.. Denyes' subject for the Sunday
morning service will be "The Far East
ern Problem" At the Summer yesper
Forum, which will open at 1880 D. m
he will speak on Java and the Java
nese." The latter lecture will be IL
