Talk Opening of Balm Avenue.
There was a veritable outburst' of
oratory when the council came to the
discussion of the opening of Balm ave-
nue. for the purpose of protecting the
life of children who will use this way
to get to the Mckinley school. City
Attorney Slater pointed out that the
main point at issue was whether or
not the property owners would be
willing to pay the benefits assessed to
their property by the change and the
matter was laid over-to the committee
again.
The city attorney was instructed to
get into Geographic communication
with the railway commission in order
to hasten action so as to get the cross
ing more safely watched while the
change was being contemplated.
All for Irish Freedom.
One of the most interesting episodes
of the meeting came up when the city
council unanimously adopted resolu-
tion endorsing Irish freedom. The res
olution came from the headquarters of
the league in this country which has
been established to aid the people OF
the Emerald Isle in their fight for
freedom. A copy of the resolution is
to be sent to President Harding, urg-
ing him to recognize the Irish repub
lie and other copies to be sent to the
senators from Wisconsin showing that
the city of Kenosha has officially en-
dorsed the fight for Irish freedom.
81 do not know how much good any
of this will do" explained Mayor
Joachim ,"but if this will aid any in
that fight for freedom, I'm in favor OF
voting for it."
The resolution was adopted unani
mously.

Sorensen, member of large Kenosha
family who has been missing in mys-
terry for more than seven years. Thorn
as Sorensen, a brother residing at $50
Collins street, was planning today to
take the matter up with the secretary
of state at Washington with an effort
to have a search made in Patagonia
for his missing brothers and other
members of the family in Kenosha will
join in the search. The story Of the
disappearance of Sorensen has its un-
usual angles. 1t is declared that the
story of a medium who presided at a
spiritualistic seance in Kenosha, has
led the members of the family to be-
lieve that Sorensen is dead.
Tells Nephew of Death.
"We do not know just how to go
about the matter" said Tom Sorensen,
a brother of the missing man this
morning. "If Cart is alive we believe
that he is somewhere in Patagonia, but
we fear that he is dead. Some time ago
one of his nephews went to a spiritu-
alistic meeting here in Kenosha and the
medium pointed her finger at him and
declared Your uncle is dead
"We last heard from Carl seven
years ago and the message was written
on postal card which had been sent
from some town in Argentine Republic.
We tried to answer it and sent letters
to the American consul in Argentine,
but we have not even received an ans
wer to the letters and for this reason
we feel that we must appeal to some
one in authority at Washington"
Was Rover of the Seas.
Carl Sorensen was a rover of the
seas and as sailor he served on any
number of ocean going ships. He had
some of the thrills of the ocean and
he was a member of the crew of yes
sci sailing between England and San
Francisco. 1t was making it's way
around the horn" with a crew of
thirty men on board when it was
wrecked. Eighteen of the men were
lost at sea and Sorensen was one of
the twelve members of the crew to be
cast upon the beach of Patagonia. He
made his way to the interior of Pata-
gonia and later went into business
there.

Tom Sorensen. cat one time we know
that he was in business but this was
before we got the post card from him
some seven years ago and since that
time there has been no word May be
the medium was right but his rela-
tives want to get real facts in regard
to him."
If he is living Carl Sorensen would
be forty-fve years of age now. He is
