Population Figures Announced by Census Bu-
reau Today Shows 1901 Increase in the
Ten Year Period
MANY CITIES ARE PASSED IN RACE
KenOsha Jumps Ahead of Superior Oshkosh, Lacrosse
Green Bay, Madison and Sheboygan to Honor
of the Third City in the State

Superior, which is now Kenosha's
closest rival for honors as the third
city, showed loss of population in the
past ten years and Oshkosh has gained
but one hundred, which is now the fifth
city in the state.
Growth of City Steady.
The census estimate of the popula-
ton of Kenosha in 1906 gave the city
population Of 1925 and the report
today indicates that the city has grown
more than 5000 in fifteen years.
The census figures as given out to-
day are of the population of Kenosha
in January of this year and many PEG
pie believe that Kenosha has taken on
several thousand people since that
time.
The detailed reports Of the census
for Kenosha and Kenosha county will
probably be given out within a month
and it is expected that these reports
will show that the population Of Keno
sha county is pretty close to the
$4,000 mark.
Racine Still Has Big Edge.
The city of Racine still has big
edge on Kenosha from the population
standpoint, but it is shown by the re-
turns today that the population of Ke-
nosha has grown much faster than Ra-
cine IN the past ten years. Racine is
now listed as being just little over
$4,000 larger than Kenosha. The ratio
of population between the two cities
changed in favor Of Kenosha in the
past ten years.
Kenosha is now fighting for the
honor of being the second city in Wis
consin and it is expected that with
the same proportion of growth in the
next ten years that she will attain this
position when the census is taken in
1880. City boosters today declared
that they believed the population in
Kenosha in 1880 would be close to the
100000 mark.
School Census Shows More.
The school census, which was com
pleted only few days ago, indicates
that Kenosha has grown considerably
since the first of January and this
census indicated that the total popula-
tion of the city was about 1000 more
than was given in the figures issued
by the census bureau today.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1920-08-26

Kenosha is now the third city in
Wisconsin, as the formal announce
ment made after long delay, shows that
Kenosha has been advanced over many
cities and that Superior is nosed out
for the honor of being the third city
by something like 800 in the census
count. The lineup Of Wisconsin cities
now is: Milwaukee, Racine, Kenosha,
Superior.
In the ten-year period Kenosha has
jumped from the ninth city in the
state to the third, and the cities which
have been passed are Superior, Green
Bay, Madison, Oshkosh, Sheboygan and
Lacrosse. All of these cities had
larger population than Kenosha when
che thirteenth census was takel and
several Of them boosted of nearly
double the population of Kenosha.

Accredited with Clean Campaign.
McHenry has been accredited with
making one of the cleanest campaigns
in the state. His opponents speak well
of him save for the one great princi-
pie he is fighting for-the return of
beer and wine. McHenry in his ad-
dresses does not practice finding fault
with his political opponents, but con-
fines his energies to the repeal or
modification Of the prohibition laws
and questions of true Americanism SO
vital to the country at this time.

icient recommendation for Mr.. Lower.
Masters, Not Amateurs.
Commander Clyde Stoneman of the
local post of the Legion is very anxious
that Kenoshans should get the proper
conception of the Million Dollar Band.
"They are not amateurs" he says.
''They are masters"
By way of proof he cites their rec
ord with the army and their triumphant
tour of France and Italy after the
srmistice was signed and peace con-
cluded at Versailles. Wherever they
went in Europe they received enthu
siastic hearings and highly laudatory
criticisms.
That is the reason "Philo" is iusti-
fed in saying:

Adolph Tuchel Who Admits
Stealing Three Arrested
at His Home Sunday.
EXPECT MORE COMING
Fifteen Year Old Italian Boy
Who Helped in Robberies
Tells Stories to Police.

Adolph Tuchel, aged 20, residing at
739 Huron street, was arrested Sunday
afternoon by Police Officers Kramer
and McGivern charged with larceny
and it is believed that his arrest will
go long way towards clearing up
thefts of bicycles in Kenosha. Three
bicycles admitted to have been stolen
by the man in recent days were recov-
cred from shop at the rear of the
house and in addition to these the po-
lice got some bicycle parts. Tuchel
was busy putting the wheels together
when he was arrested and he at first
denied that the wheels had been stolen
but later he confessed his guilt.
One of the bicycles was stolen from
the lake shore near the Country Club,
another from Superior street, and a
third from a house on Lake avenue.
Chief O'Hare declared this morning
that it was his opinion that the man
had stolen many other bicycles and
that he expected a further staten ent
from him.
Had Fifteen-Year-O as Aid.
Tuchel had fifteen-year- Italian
boy who appears to have aided him in
getting away with the bicycles. TINS
boy who has been arrested on two
former occasions came to the police
Office this morning and told the police
of his part in the theft of the wheels.
"Tuchel would take me on the han
dlebars and when we found a good
looking bicycle he would steal it and
would ride it home for him." the boy
told the police. 81 never had part in

HERO Is SEEKING
ROAD TO HEALTH
AS Aftermath of War, Ho-
bart Kincaid Seeks Health
Lost in the Service.
GASSED WINNING CROSS

Seeking the road back to health
which he lost at the battle of scissors
in October, 1919, when he fell victim
to the deadly German gas, Hobart
Kincaid, a Kenosha "devil dog" who
won the Cross of the Legion Of Honor
and the Croix de Guerre, left Kenosha
today for FIT. Bayard, New Mexico, to
enter government hospital again.
After he was gassed at scissors, young
Kincaid spent several months in base
hospital and was finally discharged
from the service but advised there
might be a recurrence Of his illness.
Since returning to Kenosha he has
resumed his work as one of the man
ayers Of the Burke theatre and despite
the best Of care, he has again suffered
a relapse and is forced to return for
treatment to army medical officials.
His illness illustrates the insidious
nature of gas wounds but is the first
instance where a Kenosha soldier has
been attacked by renewal of the ill
ness caused by the deadly poisonous
gas, tE SD F$
In the First Fight.
Hobart Kincaid won one of the most
coveted honors that came TO any Ke-
noshan who was in the service. He
was with the marines at Chateau
Thierry, when they charged the famous
woods Saturated with Germans" He
escaped that engagement uninjured
and a few weeks later went over the
top at scissors. Here he was run
ner for one Of the officers and while
performing a dangerous mission was
wounded and gassed When he came
to his senses he was in hospital be-
hind the lines where for days he how
cred between life and death.
Several weeks later at casual camp
at Blois he was doubly decorated when
a bevy Of French officers reached the
camp. He is the only Kenoshan who
wears both these decorations.
Hopes for Speedy Recovery.
Army medical officials have given the
Kenosha soldier reason to expect that
q stay in the west with return to
army hospital care and training may
be all that is necessary to put him
back on the way to health. In many
instances, soldiers who were gassed
have had recurrence Of their illness
and been forced to return to an army
hospital. F fIfy
Mr.. Kincaid will be accompanied
south by his brother, Marvin B. Kim
taid, who before returning to his home
in Kenosha will spend several months
visiting friends and relatives in the
IN west.

GETS BOTTLE
OF MOONSHINE
Constable Scholey Finds
Evidence" Walking the 4
Street Looking for Him.
VICTIM COLLAPSES|

Moonshine whiskey seems to be just
running around with the idea that it
will fall into the hands of Constable
John Scholey and Scholey has a pint
bottle Of it today as a clue to illicit
dealing of liquor in Kenosha which
with Joseph Custer of the federal de-
partment he is going to investigate
tonight. Scholey was on his way home
on Sunday night just after nine o'clock
when he met man staggering along
the street. He saw that the man was
terribly drunk and after some trouble
he managed to find out where he lived
and he took him to house on Pom
eroy street.
much obliged, stranger" the fellow
commented, as he started to stagger
up the steps 20 the house. "Wait a
minute and have drink" he contin-
ued.
Hip Licnor in Evidence.
Then the ever present hip liquor
came into evidence and the man
brought out full pint. "Must be
good stuff" he said. "They charged
me three and half pint for it.
Scholey looked the stuff over and de-
clared, "I'll take the whole bottle."'
Then he talked things over with the
drunken man and the latter promised
to go with him tonight and show him
just where he got the liquor
Scholey did not find the only moon
shine victim. An old man collapsed in
the police Office this morning and doe
tors were called to attend him. The
police said that he was suffering from
overindulgence in moonshine.

Small handbills had been handed out
at several Of the local factories an
nouncing that McHenry would speak
in this city last night. Where the
handbills came from, no one seems to
know, but it was evident that either
the party distributing same meant to
give the "wet" candidate rousing
welcome or attempted in mischievous
and small way to belittle the candidate
who is out in the open for beer and
wine.
Committeeman Says Not Scheduled.
mayor A. C. McHenry of Oshkosh,
the personal liberty candidate for
United States Senator, was not sched-
uled to speak in Kenosha last night"
said Fred R. Bahr, one of the members
of the McHenry campaign in Kenosha,
this morning, when asked why McHen-
ry did not show up at Library park or
elsewhere, as advertised on small
handbills purported to have been given
out at the factories during the day.
whoever handed out the bills had
no authority whatever to do So" said
the committeeman. "A joke is alright
at times, but if the party handing out
such political announcements without
taking but the three bicycles" he con
tinued 81 loaned Tuchel five dollars
and he said he would pay me back six
when he could sell one Of the wheels.
He paid me the six dollars, so l sup
pose that he must have sold one of the
bicycles"
Many reports of stolen bicycles are
in the hands of the police and Tuchel
will be closely questioned before he
is arraigned.

A MESSAGE FRO NJ MR. MINK.

wf1enS Tinker Bob heard the
grunting like little pig outside of
his Palace, M the scratching, he al
once made ready to answer the call.
Now Jack the Wood Rat had waited
20 long on the shelf to e what was
going to happen that he had fallen
asleep. And he slept SO sound that he
side. But Mr.. Beetle was always
awake and he heard the noise.
Looking up, he saw Jack asleep.
| Says he to himself, THAT Wood Rat
will miss something if he don't wake
up for there is a great noise outside"
While the King had gon to answer
the call, Mr.. Bette thought it wise to
arouse Mr.. Wood Rat. So he hurried
over to the side of the Palace and
was hanging over the edge of the
shelf. Mr.. Beetle fastened his jaws
into the tip end of Mr.. Wood Rats
tail. and suddenly something hap
pened.
.'Woop!' shouted Jack. as he sprang
to his feet n snapped his tail
around the corner Of the shelf and
sent Mr.. Beetle sailing through the
air. Somebody is trying to kill me,
help. help"
When the King heard the cry in
side he returned at once to see what
the trouble might be. He saw Mr..
Beetle picking himself up n hurry
ing over to, the hearth. Then he
knew that there was nothing serious
the matter with Jack the Wood Rat.
Your cry is all for nothing. Mr.
Beetle was only telling you that some
thing was going on that you did not
see." Jack was ashamed then to
think he had made such a noise.
Now while the King was speaking
to Mr.. Wood Rat, there was plenty
going on outside. Chief Porky, Major
Pole Cat and Mr.. Musk Rat were do.
