BURGLAR LIKE
WILL-O'-WISP
Police Seek in Vain for
Man Supposed to Be Bur-
glarizing Home.
FIRE ladies TOO

An elusive burglar or well de-
yeloped Imagination among a lot of
people caused lot of excitement down
on Park avenue just before midnight
on Monday evening when it was re-
ported that the home Of DR.. T. P.
Noehle, 696 Park avenue, was being.
looted by burglars. The report to the
police Office declared that the people
in the neighborhood had seen a man
with flash light in the upper rooms
Of the Mobile home and that they were
certain that the place was being burg
larized. DIR. Nozzle and the members
of his family had gone away for the
evening and the neighborhood were
keeping a Watchful eye on the home.
Police Officers Schmitt and LaPoint
went to the Noehle home and made an
They found the doors
and windows locked and nothing to
show that burglar had entered the
home. They went to the front of the
house and the rear but they could not
Find any way to enter the house and all
of the doors appeared to be securely
locked. Chief O'Hare and Officer Greb
Joined in the search for the burglar and
the chief called the fire department.
Fire Ladies' Use Ladders.
The big extension ladders Of the fire
department were called into service
and the upper windows of the house
were attacked by the dremen and after
several trials had been made one of
them was found to be unlocked and
the posse of police officers and fremen
went into the house and searched it
from cellar to attic. They found no
flash light nor a burglar and found
nothing to indicate that there had
been any one in the house. just the
same the neighbors who had come over
to aid in the search declared that they
had seen the man moving about in the,
house and had seen the flash light on
the windows of several of the rooms.
The police remained on search for
more than an hour and then gave up
the hunt for the elusive burglar. The
ladders were taken back to the fire
house and all was quiet.
Dog Takes Up Chase.
The police officers and the firemen
had just returned to their headquart-
ers at the city hall when the telephone
in the police Office rang like a riot
call, "That fellow just ran away from
the Noehle house and the dog is chas-
ing him" came the report over the
telephone. The other end of the wire
was at the home of Martin P. WHITTIER,
president of the Whittier Motor Truck
company, and Whittier told the police
that he was not imagining and that he
saw the dog just ready to plant his
teeth in the seat Of the pants Of the
burglar but that the burglar had
slipped away from the teeth.
The police insisted this morning
that there could not have been any one
in the house at the time the search
was made. The people down Park
avenue still insist that the burglar was
ia clever hider and that he escaped
from the police and the watch dog.
After the dog story the police made
another round but they failed to find
any one suffering from hydrophobia.

Catherine Byrne and Josephine Conlin
will take the lake trip to Buffalo and
on to New York and Washington;
Eda and Rosa Button and Marjorie
Bailey will take the lake trip to Buffa-
10 and Niagara Falls.
These teachers have filed with the
superintendent declaration of inten-
tion regarding the coming summer and
under the rules Of the board will when
returning the proper certified credits
from the school attended or full re-
port of travel. be entitled to the re-
ward specified in the rules. This re-.
ward is in the form Of extra advance
ment in salary to take effect in 1921
20. They will move up two steps in.
the salary schedule instead of one
when the next adjustment time comes
around. This extra compensation will
be far short of meeting the expendi-
ture made by these teachers, but is
some appreciation, and the response
from the teachers to the encourage
ment thus given is evidence of their
fine professional attitude.
The benefits reaped by the children
of Kenosha from this great physical
and mental renewal will be immeas-
urably greater than any cost which the
public will assume in consequence
Of it.

WOULD SERVE
FATHERS TERM
John Newbauer Jr. Offers
to Take Fathers Place in
Serving Long Term.
JUDGE DECLINES OFFER

Honor thy father and thy mother
was one of the Ten Commandments
which John Newbauer, Jr., did not skip
when he went to Sunday school. He
proved this conclusively on Monday
afternoon when he stood before the
bench in the Municipal Court and of
Tered to give up six months of his life
to save his father from serving term
in the county jail. Don't send father
to jail" this big strapping son told
Judge Tully. II am ready to take upon
myself the payment of the penalty for
my father and If you will permit it |
will go right over and surrender my
self to the sheriff for term of six
months. Father is an old man and
while he may have done wrong, I do
not want him to go to jail.p
Tears in Fathers Eyes.
There were tears in the eyes of the
aged father as he heard the offer of
the son to take upon himself the PEN
atty of a jail sentence. He declared
that he would not accept the sacrifice
offered by the SON and that he would
pay any penalty that the court i'm
posed on him. The son is the oldest
son Of Newbauer He has served six
years in the United States army and
has splendid record for service. He
came into court with his father when
the older man was arraigned to plead
to a charge of being the keeper of a
disorderly house. Newbauer was ar
rested many weeks ago and young
woman who had been taken by the
police at the same time pleaded guilty
sometime ago and was sent to Jail to
serve time when she failed to pay a
fine Of $25 and the costs of the action.
The hearing of Newbauer had been
continued from time to time.
Bond Was Forfeited.
Several days ago when Newbauer
failed to appear in court to plead to
the charges against him, his bond was
forfeited and he was then arrested and
he waived examination. With view
of getting the matter cleared up he
came into court on Monday afternoon
and offered to. save the county the
costs of the trial by pleading guilty.
Under his plea Judge Tully sentenced
him to pay a fine of 5000 and the costs
of the action and in addition to be
imprisoned in the county jail for a
term Of six months. Then came the
dramatic offer Of the son to serve the
sentence Of his father Judge Tully
was visibly moved by the offer of the
son to make the sacrifice for the father
and after the fine of 5000 and costs
had been paid the judge announced
that he would grant gail liberties" to
the father. Under this order Newbau-
er will be required to report to the
sheriff every day but he will escape
actual confinement.
No License for Saloon.
The city council has not granted a
renewal Of the permit for the New
bauer saloon and it is understood that
no permit will be granted to Newbau-
er. Under the order of the court New
bauer will be picked up at once and
jailed if he is found guilty of any
breach of the law. 1t is possible that
license for the place may be granted
to some other applicant but until New
bauer has shown his willingness and
his ability to go straight it is pretty
certain that the council will not grant
him any license.

Carrying a Revolver.
CLERK DISARMED HIM

Harry Holton, a former Kenosha
resident, was fined 500 and costs by
Judge Burgess, Monday afternoon in
the municipal court at Racine, being
charged with having carried loaded
revolver. He was unable to put up the
cash and was committed to the county
Jail for q period of sixty days. Gum
toting was scored by Judge Burgess

that crimes were committed, and that
if there was no revolver at hand there
would be no disturbance or crimes
in many cases.
Wife Was With Him.
Holton was arrested Sunday fore
noon in the lobby of Hotel Racine
where he had gone to get his baggage
with the intent, he said, Of taking it
70 Kenosha. His wife testified that he
refused to allow her to accompany him
but she did, anyway, and when in the
lobby of the hotel she asserted, he
made a threat to dump her of" AS
she knew he had loaded revolver on
his person, she went to the hotel clerk
and reported the happening, Clerk
Johnson testified that he took two
weapons from the man, both being
turned over to Detective Yanny at the
time that officer made the arrest.
Sister Also in Court.
A sister of the defendant was in
court, and she asked permission to say
something in behalf of her brother.
She told how he did not mean what he
said and that he had never been in
trouble before. She incidentally told,
however, that he has received his
soldiers bonus and that it had all
been spent.
Mrs. Holton testified that he had
threatened to "bump her off" and that
they had been married since last De-
eember, having had several tilts be-
fore, but nothing serious.
Judge Burgess refused to return the
weapons to Holton, even the one he
carried for nearly two years in the
army being confscated.

II do not know just where the
howitzer will be set up" declared
Mayor Joachim this morning. Some
of the people believe that it.should be
placed in Library Park. Others think
that the Lake Shore park is the place
for it, and still others believe that it
should be set up in commanding
place on Market Square. In order that
every one can have hearing, | am
going to turn it over to the Park
Board and let that organization decide
where it will be placed"
The big guns taken from the Ger
mans have been eagerly sought by all
of the cities of the nation and Keno
sha is fortunate to receive this one.
It is expected that q decision for
placing it will be made at once. 1t
