Only few of our citizens have been called upon and the neces- sary amount with which to finance the team is practically assured. The pledges will be paid in installments.
 At last nights meeting the board of directors was instructed to pro- ceed with the work of ordering uni forms and paraphanalia, securing the players and getting suitable grounds fos the diamond The directrs ask that lcal men who will try for places on the team to report to them at once so that this part of the details can be disposed of.

ROY AND JOSH
 STOCKTON SHOT
SHOOTING BY DEPUTY SHERIFF NILES DOWNS NEAR BOUGE-
 TON IS RESULT OF ATTACK ON OFFICER, FORMER CLAIMS.

Roy Stockton was shot through the mouth, the bullet coming out just bebind the right ear and his cousin. Josh, was shot in the right shoulder l the bullet lodging under the left shoul- l der blade, as the result of an alleged
 attack on Deputy Sheriff Miles Downs l last Tuesday afternoon on the road
 above Boughton by the two Stockton boys. Both the boys are in the Park Hospital here and neither of the wounds are said to be serious.
 According to Sheriff Steele, who investigated the shooting, Deputy sheriff Owns claims that he was com ing from his field couple of miles north of Boughton late Tuesday af- tenoon when he was accosted by Roy and Josh Stockton, who with Roy's
 father, Alfred Stckton, had driven ut in their car and had stopped in the
 road The two boys, Deputy Downs
 states, alighted from the car and the
 father remained in the car. Josh it
 is said, then covered the officer with
 Winchester, telling him that they
 were going to kill him. Roy pulled
 a revolver from his pocket and began
 to beat the fficer over the head and
 shoulders, the officer backing away
 from the boys all the time with his
 hands raised above his head. When Mr. Downs had backed about twenty five feet from where Josh was stand ing with the Winchester, Roy con- tnuing to beat the officer with the revolver, both stopped for brief in- stant and Roy turned and called to his cousin to come on with the gun nat they were going to kill MT. Downs. It was during this time that the officer pulled a revolver from his pocket and fired on Roy who was close upon him, the force of the ex- plosion knocking him down after the bullet had entered at the mouth. Of ficer Downs immediately fired on Josh, the bullet taking effect in the right shoulder lodging under the left shoulder blade. MT. Downs says to save further trouble he was leaving the scene when he was fired at num- Der of times by the Stocktons. The officer suffered fracture of the col lar bone at the hands of Roy as well as a number of other bruises. It IS said that both boys and the older

Stockton were intoxicated at the time.
 The Stocktons claim that they were attacked by Deputy Sheriff Downs.
 The officer says that the shooting is the result of bitter feeling which arose ove rthe testimony he, Downs, gave for the state in the recent trial of Roy Stockton for the murder of Fibre Britt, at which time Stockton was convicted of second degree mur- and sentenced to term in the peni- tentiary. Stockton is now out on bond awaiting the result of his ap- peal to the state supreme court.

HOW CANARIES ARE TRAINED
French Expert Explains His Method
of Teaching the Birds to Pro-
duce Sweet Notes.

Parisians are so passionately fond
of canaries that it is estimated there
are 100000 of these birds in the
City of Light. Writing in the Wide
World magazine, Henri Gaillard, the
famous French canary trainer, gives
some interesting particulars regarding
his method of teaching his pets to
sing.
"The musical training of my pupils"
he says, sis conducted with the aid of
a bird whistle or fageolet. A fort
night after the young bird has learned
to feed itself it is put into solitary
cage, where, if it is a male, it soon
begins to MARBLE. The cage is then
covered with white muslin and it's oc-
cupant is fed on cola seed and bread
soaked In water. During the first
week of isolation / don't allow him to
hear the song of any other bird, and
during the second week play only
few notes of medium pitch every
morning before his cage. After this
] advise covering the cage with very
thick green or red serge, thus keeping
the bird in darkness until it has
learned a few short musical phrases.
How long does it take to train a
canary to sing properly? Well, that
all depends On the birds aptitude. /
should say the time varies from two
to six months"

kenosha Police Believe Charles Pacini
Was Slain by Former Soldier Who
Escaped From an Asylum
Army Button Is CleW.

KenoSha, Aug. 1S-Detectives re-
newed their quest for the slayer of
Charles Pacini, wealthy movie theater
operator, with a single clew-an army
discharge button and a fragment of
worsted suiting. Pacini died in hos
pital, refusing to reveal the identity of
the aSSailant who shot him in a pistol
duel Saturday night. Police Chief
Owen O'Hare is inclined to the theory
that Pacini was the victim of an es-
capped lunatic, a former soldier, be-
heved to be hiding in the city. A dis
patch from MaSSillOn, O.. told of the
escape from an asylum there of dis
charged soldier named LandrOn. The
Red Cross authorities in MassillOn said
LandrOn possessed a maniacal desire to
STAY all prominent citizens because of
fancied wrongs done his mother. The
Massillon authorities expressed the
opinion that LandrOn had come to Ke-
nosha and was in hiding here. Pacini
Saturday night closed his three thea
tiers at eleven O'Clock and took one of
his cashiers, Mrs. Alice Davenport, and
a ticket taker, Mrs Agnes O'Brien, to
their homes. Then he drove to pub
lie garage to put his car up. He
reached the garage at II 80. He drove
into the alley at the rear. and there
the battle with his slayer occurred.
The army button was picked up near
the scene Of the shooting. Neither
Mrs. Davenport nor Mrs. O'Brien, both
of whom are separated from their hus-
bands, have been questioned. The po-
lice think jealous admirer may have
held grudge against the slain man.
