Just too Easy on
Trigger Finger

Mike Witkowski who resides at ST
Lake Avenue was just little too easy
on the trigger finger at three o'clock
Sunday morning when he fired a shot
at two men whom he believed to have
been in his garage and had been max
ing an effort to steal his automobile.
After he had called the police and
told the man at the desk that two men
were in his garage making an effort
to take his automobile he stood watch
while Officers Melbusch, Long and
Schmitt were on their way to the
scene of the supposed robbery. Before
the officers arrived the men started to
leave and Witkowski opened fire. He
had sent one bullet after the men
when they came walking back and
rather rudely asked him what in the
dickens he was aiming at. Then Wit
kowski discovered that the men owned
an adjoining garage and had been
in it and not in his garage. He told
the officers to tell the Chief of Police
that he would be down later and ex-
plain. No one was hurt or even bad
" frightened as result of the shoot
ing

Two Are Orphaned
by Mothers Death
Mrs. Elizabeth Trommen Dies Monday
Evening After a Short Illness,
Leaving Two Daughters.

Mrs. Elizabeth Trominen, aged %
years, native of Finland and resi-
dent of Kenosha for the past two
months, died early Monday evening at
the st. GATHERINGS hospital after a
short illness from a complication of
diseases. The deceased leaves two
daughters, Ali, aged seven years, and
Aine, aged five, who had lived with
her at 1857 Middle street. Mrs. Tro-
minen with her children came to Ke-
nosha two months ago from Crystal
Falls, where she had lived for several
years. She was born in Finland in
1892, the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Kusta Panula, and came to America at
an early age. Only short time ago
she secured a divorce from her hus-
band, Arthur Trominen, but an effort
is being made to locate him in order
that he may care for their two chill
dren. No arrangements have yet been
made regarding the funeral services.

Have More Names Than Ever BefOre-Many
Officials and Some Referendums.

franchise and this fact is causing lot
Of anxiety in the city election as IL
was in the national election and it is
certain that efforts will be made to
have the women Of the city thoroughly
organized. The non-partisan character
of the election is certain to give the
women the widest possible chance for
"clean up" campaigns and with lots
of time for organization it is believed
that the women vote will be the de-
termining factor in the election.
Women Eligible for All Offices.
The women of the city who have the
right Of the voting and who are free
holders are properly candidates for any
Office in the gift of the city and county
and it is possible that several leading
women of the city may seek seats on
the common council. The name OF
one woman has already been mention
ed in one of the leading towns of the
county as candidate for town chair
man and member of the county board.
Politicians have even discussed the
possibility of the women of the city
uniting and taking entire control of
the government of the city and county.

Of education and half Of the members
of the council hold over it would be
impossible for the women to secure a
majority on either of these boards but
the county board is open for them to
go to the limit.

FLAT RATE ASKED
BY NORTHSHORE
Hearing of Proposed Three
Cent Fare Comes up in
Chicago Monday.
BLAME 1T ON KENOSHA

The hearing of the petition of the
Chicago, North Shore and Milwaukee
Electric Railway company for an in
crease in passenger rates for interstate
and interstate traffic was opened before
Paul 0. Carpenter, examiner for the
Interstate Commerce Commission in
Chicago on Monday afternoon and it
is expected that the hearing of the
arguments of the company for a gem
eral advance in rates will be contin-
ued for several days.
The appeal to the Interstate Com
merce Commission is independent of
the appeals recently made by the COM
pany to the railroad commissions of
Illinois and Wisconsin and it seeks to
establish the fare rate of the company
under the interstate law.
Asks Uniform Three Cent Fare.
The North Shore company, in its
petition, asked for uniform increase
in traffic rates to three cents in pas
senger traffic between Illinois and Wis
consin cities. The rate now being
charged is OF mile in Wisconsin and
two cents a mile in Illinois. The
formal decision of the Wisconsin Rail-
road Commission granting the COM
pany the increased rate has not as vet
been promulgated, but as there was no
protest against the rate being increased
it is expected that the order will be
issued within a few days. The of
ficials of the company insisted that it
desired to serve the people of the two
states on an equal basis and on basis
which would make possible the contin-
uation of the service inaugurated.
Sees Loss in Revenue.
Charles E. Thompson, vice president
of the company, who presented the pc
tition to the federal examiner ,declar-
ed that the increase in the rate was
necessary on account of the fact that
the company as>facing decrease in
business. He declared that the officials
of the company look forward to a ten
per cent decrease in passenger traffic
during the ensuing year as result
of the partial closing down Of the big
industries in Racine and Kenosha and
at other points along the route. Humid
reds of people working in Racine and
Kenosha make their home at Wauke-
gan, Zion City and at smaller points
between Zion and Milwaukee and it is
declared that the hauling of these
people to their places of work has been
one of the big features of the passen-
ger business Of the company.
It may be several months before the
decision of the Interstate Commerce
Commission Is announced.

HOME is SAVED
BY VOLUNTEERS
Twin Lakes People Form
Bucket Brigade to Save
Simmons Home.
PUMP HOUSE BURNED

Volunteer fire fighters who went out
from Twin Lakes village on Saturday
afternoon saved from destruction by
fire the splendid summer home of Mr.
and Mrs. q. G. Simmons on Lake Marie.
Fire, which broke out in the pump
house on the lake and which complete
ly destroyed this building, threatened
to spread to the garage and other
buildings about the house but at the
Office of Mr.. Simmons this morning it
was said that the loss on the property
would not exceed $4,000 and that the
loss was partially covered by insur-
ance. The fire, which occurred early
Saturday afternoon, was one of the
most spectacular fires ever known to
that section of the county. 1t is be-
lieved that the fire resulted from
spontaneous combustion. 1t originated
in the pump house and it was discov-
cred by caretaker. He hurriedly
called the village and asked for aid in
fighting the flames.
Villagers form Bucket Brigade.
The splendid Simmons estate is the
pride OF the Twin Lakes neighborhood
and it is declared that the call for
volunteers was answered by sixty men
and women from the surrounding
farms and from the village. These
people formed bucket brigade and
relayed water from the lake front to
pour on the garage and other buildings
to prevent their being burned. The
fire had secured such a start at the
pump house that it was deemed i'm
possible to save this building. There
was large amount Of infamable oil
in the building and this added fuel to
the flames and made it much more
difficult for the volunteers to fight the
spread of the fire.
The fire crippled the water supply
of the home, but it is understood that
the building will be rebuilt at once.
The machinery in the building was
very badly damaged but it was hoped
that it was not complete loss.
The property of Mr.. Simmons at
Twin Lakes is regarded as the most
valuable summer home property in
southern Wisconsin.

order which rang out through the
clear cold night on West Grand avenue
just before one o'clock this morning.

threw up four queens without going

unusual response which came back.
It was a posse of police officers seek
ing to "call the hand" at poker game
in a barber shop on Grand avenue, but
the men in the game were too thor
oughly engrossed in straights and
Pushes and four-of- a-kind to be dis
turbed even by posse.

the discard and Chief Of Police O'Hare
with the aid Of Police Officers E. Rad
atz, Long and Schmitt raked in the
"kitty" and with it the eleven men
who were either participants or hang
ers-on at the poker game and the
whole capoodle of them were loaded
into the city's Limousine" and taken
to the police station where they were
booked on charges Of gambling. Some
of them insisted that they had not
been actually drawing cards in the
game, but just the same they went
along with the rest Of them.
Get Supply of Chips and Coin.
The police got a generous supply of
chips and coin when the game was
raided and these were put into the
amusement drawer at the police Office
while the men after they been booked
were released on cash bonds of $3.50
