The county's new official family be-
came Official this morning when the
new officials took their places in the
various offices. Sheriff Rauen and the
undersheriff were the first to get their
official badges as they were indicted
into Office at midnight Sunday night
and were in complete charge of the
county jail this morning. There were
flowers on the table at the Office of
the sheriff and while the ceremonial
attending the induction of the new
sheriff was not attended by a great
crowd, it made up in enthusiasm any
thing which may have been lacking in
numbers.
Just Turn Over Offices.
There wasn't great deal of cere-
mony in the other offices this morning.
Most of the officials starting on the
new term simply opened a new book
for the new year and the only real
changes were in the Office of County
Treasury and Register of Deeds. The
retiring Treasurer James W. Blair had
his books all ready for Treasurer
Scott this morning and the accounts
will be formally transferred at once
and the clearance of the treasurer will
come after the report has been made
to the county board. Some three hun
dred thousand dollars were in the gen
eral fund Of the county when the turn
over was made.
Treasurer Scott has the distinction
of being the first full-time treasurer
in Kenosha county. He has establish
ed his Office at the office Of the cour ty
clerk for the present. High praise has
been given to retiring Treasurer Jas.
w. Blair. The auditors Of the county
have declared that he has kept model
set of books and he has won plaudits
of state officials for his prompt handl-
ing of the moneys of the state and
county.
Praise for John F. Schmitt.
The retirement of John F. Schmitt
Jr., from the Office of register of deeds
brought to a close a term of service
for the county which brought a vast
increase in the business of this office.
Mr.. Schmitt has been just little in
advance of the demands of the office
and he has handled the largest amount
of business in any county Of the state
with the exception of Milwaukee coun-
ty. Under his direction the office has
seen many changes in methods follow
ed and it is declared to be model for
Wisconsin offices. Bert L. Shaw, the
new register of deeds has been busy
working with Mr.. Schmitt for some
time to get ready for his work
Mr.. Schmitt will remain in the en-
ploy of the county for at least four
months as he is to have charge of the
copying of the records from the old
Racine county books, in anticipation Of
the making Of tract index for the
county. The transfer of the county Of
fees was evidenced by the appearance
of flowers on many of the official desks
this morning and in many offices CT
gars were being handed out freely.

GET FINEST STILL

1t remained for what the police call
ed Glove parlor" to yield the finest"
still that the police department of
Kenosha hassso far secured in the bat
tie to make Kenosha dry The place
a bakery-at the corner of Rowland
avenue and Park street, was raided
by Police Officers Kirsch and Kauten-
burg on Sunday morning at nine
o'clock and its proprietor, Arthur
ScRuemaker and Julia Schuemaker were
arrested on charge of violating the
prohibition laws. He will be turned
over to the federal officials, the police
stated today.
The still, which was most elaborate
one, was found camouflaged as a gas
plate in the kitchen of the place. In
addition to the still the officers got
some white mule in process of max
ing and several boxes of raisins and it
was said that considerable supply
of completed liquor was left at the
place in charge of custodian.
Arrest Men and Women Later.
E
The police declared that the Glove
parlor' feature of the place had been
maintained for some time and that one
man and one woman were found in one
of the rooms at the time of the raid,
while another couple which had been
in the place escaped. Mrs. Hattie Eau
bert, Alma Grulke, A. c.. Hollis, Roy

against these people. The police
claimed that the still had been in
operation for some time and that
several complaints had been received
against the place.
When arraigned in the municipal
court this morning, Arthur Schuemaker
and wife, Julia, stated that they oper-
ated a bakery at $50 Rowland avenue
and as such were able to buy large
quantities Of raisins for pies and for
different varieties of cakes and breads.
According to Mrs. Schuemaker, she had
never made any large quantities of
moonshine but what they did make
they mixed with peach juice. It is
thought that when the woman was
baking peach pies she would pour off
the juice as base for her homemade
peach moonshine."

has directed the Army gridiron des-
TIMES for the last three years, after
a long tenure of Office, broken by the
war.
1t is no secret that military adher'
ents are much dissatisfied with the
showing the Hudson river eleven has
made during the last three years, when
they have been hunbled as many
times by the sailors from Annapolis
The defeats, while not overwhelming
as far as large scores are concerned,
were none the less decisive.
Change Bad Line Drill.
The chief criticism made in the
Army play among the partisans is dt
rected against the coaching OF th'
Army lines which have played high il
the air and tackled inetfectively
This was more than evident Saturday
and the timing of plays on the attacl
was poor, it is argued.
Want Try Under New Regime.
Army followers believe the time j.
ripe for a change and that coach o
high caliber should be gotten for th'
Army at any cost. West Point ha
about the largest student enrollmen
in its history, splendid material, an
the students are older than their Al

change of mentors would give th
Army at least q chance to shine undo
other directing systems.
