UNBLANKET LENR0OT
AS A DARK HORSE
Senator Irvine L. Lenroot Is Named by
Several Political Clubs Today
as Republican Candidate.
(By Associated Press

United States Senator Irvine L. Len
root of Wisconsin, has been unblank-
eted as dark hourse candidate for
the Republican presidential nomina-
ton. Simultaneously the New York
Lenroot club" with headquarters at
jamestown, N. Y, and the western
Lenroot club with headquarters at
DesMoines, Iowa, produced him yes
terday, with strong line Of publicity
indicating to political observers that
the Wisconsin senator is to be made a
conspicuous figure in the speculations
and deliberations that will precede the
Coliseum nomination. The fat state
ment was made in the tidings from
jamestown that Senator Lenroot's
name will be presented to the conYen-
ton. Whether this will be by one of
the two delegates from Wisconsin who
was not elected on the LaFollette dele
gate ticket, or whether it is to be
brought to convention attention by a
delegate from some other than from
the senator's home state, remains to
be seen.

600. Both Of the deals were made
through the Pfennig agency. The up
ward trend of down town real estate

Fred Larsen who owned the Chamber
of Commerce building bought it less

tion of little less than eighteen
thousand dollars. Mr.. Larsen had ex-
pended considerable some of money
on the rebuilding Of the building, but

Mems Christian Association in Keno
sha. 1t was erected nearly twenty
years ago at cost of approximately
thirty thousand dollars and for more
than ten years it was occupied as the
home of the association in Kenosha.
When it was found that it did not
meet all the demands Of a modern Y
NJ. C. A. organization the directors of
the association decided to put it on
the market and it was purchased by
Mr.. Larsen, who covered it into a
business building. One of the best
located buildings in the city, space III
it has been in great demand since 1t
was remodeled. 1t is said that Mr..
Regner will not make any changes

ing occupied by this organization and
it is expected that some changes will
be made in the portion Of the building
used by the organization.
The Host building was one Of the
newest buildings on Main street 1t
was said by Mr.. Pfennig that he had
purchased the building and would hold

TWO ARE HURT
in AUTO CRASH
Waukegan Banker and His
Companion Injured in
Midnight Accident.
PAYS FINE IN COURT
Harold E. Harrington and Miss
Linda Ottmer Victims Of
Accident in Kenosha.

Harold E. Harrington, we'll known
Waukegan banker and Miss Linda OFT
mer, a teacher in the Waukegan pub
lie schools, met severe injuries just
before midnight Tuesday night when
an automobile in which they were rid
ing crashed into telegraph pole at
the corner of Main and South street,
wrecking the automobile. Harrington
was unconscious when he was found
by Police Officer Alfred Greb. He had
been badly cut BY the flying glass of
the wind SHIELD and had suffered an
injury to hts back Miss Ottmer had
several bad cuts on her neck and face
but her injuries were of minor
nature as compared with those of Har-
rington. The wrecked automobile was
taken to the Sheridan Road garage
and the two injured parties were
taken to the Office of physician where
their wounds were dressed. They were
in the municipal court this morning
Harrington was charged with reckless
driving and he paid fines of fifteen
dollars and the costs of the two ac-
tons. The officers charged that Har-
rington was under the influence of
liquor at the time, but this was dis
puted. Harrington admitted that he had
been drinking some during the evening.
Came on Business Trip.
According to the story told by the
police Harrington, who is widely known
among the younger men Of Waukegan,
had come to Kenosha on Tuesday after
noon accompanied by three men to
close up a business deal. The session
in Kenosha had been closed in the
early part of the afternoon and the
members Of the party had visited Mil
waukee later in the afternoon. Har-
rington said that he had taken a couple
of drinks while in Milwaukee and that
he had started for his home in Wau-
kegan just after ten o'clock When he
reached Kenosha, according to the
story, one Of his friends asked him to
take Miss Ottmer to her home in Wau-
kegan, stating that she had come to
Kenosha to attend a social entertain
ment during the evening. Miss Ottmer
was picked up at house on Grand
avenue and the start was made for
Waukegan.
Says Caught Wrong Button.
Harrington declared to the police
that he was not driving at an excess
sive rate of speed at the time Of the
accident. He said that as be reached
the corner of Main and South and
started to turn into South street an
other car came up from the west. He
said that he started to put on the
brake but instead gave the car more
gas and that it leaped forward and
crashed into the pole before he could
turn it west into South street. He de-
clared that his effort to avoid a coli-
sion with the other automobile was
largely responsible for the accident.
In court this morning Harrington's
face was covered with bandages. His
right eye was very severely cut and
bruised and he suffered from intense
pains in the breast said to have been
caused by his being wedged in between
the steering wheel and the seat Of the
car. Miss Ottmer took a car to Wau-
kegan. early this morning and Harring-
ton was able to drive his automobile
back later in the day.

Any Considerable Number of Coveted
Tickets for Convention.

ferable. Wisconsin will be entitled to
seventy-five assistant sergeants at

believed to be the only Kenoshan to
get close enough to the big bosses of
the convention to get badge as a
sergeant which will get him past the
big front door of the convention hf@s.
Tickets Never So Tight.
81 never saw it so hard to get tick
cts to a Chicago convention said one
of the old time convention goers in
Kenosha today. "In former years a
considerable block of tickets were
given to Chicagoans who contributed
to the convention fund, but this year
these people have been cut off with one
or two tickets where they used to get
fifty, Kenosha always depended on
getting several Of these tickets. In
fact we usually have thirty-five or for
ty tickets to pass about in Kenosha.
So far as ! know there has not been
single spectators ticket sent to Ke-
nosha. Even the chairman Of the Re-
publican county committee hasn't got
one and he has no reason to expect
that he is going to have ONE
Seek Tickets in Other States.
Some Of Kenosha's political leaders
who have no hope Of getting tickets
to the convention from politicians in
th#ir 9sgn state ire KING a. ges
saes2 from leaaess ii ther sas.
Right now the man who wants to go
to the convention is lucky if he has
friend in Georgia or Mississippi or
North Carolina or some other southern
state who happens to be member of
Republican committee. People down
south don't care much to go to the Re-
publican convention and the tickets
assigned to these states usually go
begging.
This is suggested as the one best
chance for Kenosha people TO get the
wonderfully engraved tickets.

EDW ARD IDE HURT
AS GAS EXPLODES
Well Known Kenoshan IN
iured BY Explosion Of
Gasoline at Home.
CAUSE Is A MYSTERY

Edward Ide, West Prairie avenue, is
confined to his home as result of in
juries received just before six o'clock
Tuesday evening when he was blown
out of a garage by an explosion Of
gasoline. He is suffering from a
severely burned arm, has bad bruises
on his arms and legs and was so se-
verely shaken up by the explosion that
he will be confined to his home for a
week or ten days. Physicians attend
ing him do not believe that he has
any permanent injuries.
The accident resulting in the injury
of Ide was one Of the most unusual
which has followed the development Of
the use Of gasoline for motive power.
Ide had sold his automobile and was
draining the gasoline out of the tank
when the explosion occurred. The au-
tomobile was in the garage and the
gas had been transferred from a tank
to can and Ide was making an effort
to drain the gasoline from the car
buretor when the explosion came. Just
how the gasoline was ignited is a
mystery.
NO Smoking In the Garage.
Ide had been most careful in hand
ling the gasoline and he had not been
smoking in the garage and there were
no matches in the place. He was bend
ing over the automobile draining the
gasoline when it let go with great
force. He was blown through the door
Of the garage and was picked up in a
dazed condition some distance from
the building. The force of the explo-
sion was sufficient to blow the tank
off the automobile but otherwise the
automobile was not damaged. AS a
result of the explosion the garage was
damaged TO the amount Of fifty dollars.
The fire department was called and
the firemen made a complete investiga-
ton Of the case, but Chief Schwartz
said this morning that it was hard to
tell just what caused the explosion.
Ide told the chief it all happened so
suddenly that he could not tell just
what the cause was.
