OF his college chums.
The third factor is the reading
which one does and the fourth is re-
nglon. He said that there has been
no truly great man who has not been
faithful Christian.

much worth while and was enjoyed
and appreciated by all the members

the baseball game at the college
varsity VS. town team

and short course in salesmanship
was given to all students selling tick

ton due swine Eek was arrested by
Officer Kramer upon the complaint Of
D. w. Melick, who alleged that Eek

been kept in his cellar but stated that
the hogs were the property of his wife
and that he was not to blame.
Officer Kramer in making the inves-
tigation on the arrest found out that
on December 9Th Eek purchased four
hogs from the st GATHERINGS hospital
for the sum of $4,000. Three pigs were
all that the officer could find "Where's
the other pig?" the officer asked Eek.
"My wife and I like fresh pork and
butchered one in the bath tub" the
man replied. eve turned on the hot
water and it made the scraping of the
hog easy, I'm going to fight this case
as the pigs belong to my wife"
Judge Tully adjourned the case until
January 26th.

by Associated Pregsl

Chicago-Calm was restored today to
a residential district that had to re-

hundred robberies. The four youths

MARY ASHMUS
IS in COURT
Charged With "MoOnshin-
ing" Woman is Fight
ing Her Case.
MAY GO TO BELDEN
In Case Decision of Municipal
Court Should Go Against
Her She Will Appeal Case.

Mary Ashmus, the second woman
moonshiner to appear before the
Municipal court in Kenosha, was in
court this morning to answer to a
charge Of making "illicit." She ap-
peared and was represented by her
attorney. Frank Symmonds.
The trouble all started over the fact
that one of her best customers lost an
overcoat in her house. When she de-
clared that she knew nothing concern
ing the coat, the fellow went to the
police station and asked that the po-
lice department institute a search in
an endeavor to recover the overcoat.
Officers Kirsch and Detective Rock
went to the Ashmus residence at %
North Congress street and searched
the premises. At that time they did
not find the overcoat but they found
copper moonshine still hidden away
in a closet under the kitchen sink,
Two quarts of white mule" were also
found that had big kick in it.
Failed to Appear.
The woman was ordered to appear
in Municipal court to answer to the
charge Of making moonshine but fail
ed to appear to answer to her alleg-
ed misdemeanor. Then the officers
had to go out to her place and bring
her in. She plead not guilty and her
Case was postponed until today, This
morning when she appeared A9n court
she had her attorney, Frank Sy-
monds and approximately fifty Of her
followers in Municipal court
The woman did not understand the
English language and had to be ques-
toned through an interpreter. She
brought her own Interpreter along and
there was some little discussion con-
corning allowing him to act. Final
ly one of the policemen who could un-
derstand Lithuanian agreed to act as
referee and to see that her answers
were translated into English in the
manner in which they should be.
Stuff Showed SO Per Cent.
Emil Meissner, secretary of the po-
lice, had the moonshine analysed by
the city chemist and the concoction
was found to contain nearly fifty per
cent of alcohol. According to the wo-
man she admits that the stuff is IL
quor but states that it belonged to
her son who left it with her. She
stated that she did not manufacture
the stuff and that she did not sell any
of it, despite the fact that the state
had witness who swore upon the
stand that he had purchased some of
the stuff from her personally. He
stated that she poured four drinks fof
him with her own hand, statement
that the woman declares is untrue.
A further investigation of the prem
ises of the woman found the overcoat
that was missing. The woman made
a counter. charge of theft against the
fellow who missed the overcoat and
stated that he had taken $500 from
her. This she says angered him un-
til he had her brought into court for
revenge.
Up until two o'clock this afternoon
the case had not been decided but it
is thought that in case the woman
should lose the case in Municipal
court that she would appeal it to the
circuit court and have the legal battle
fought over again before Judge Bel
den.

The Kenosha county board this
morning, without a record vote, re-
fused to act favorably on the proposed
referendum on the building of new
court house. Action on the resolution
which was proposed by Supervisor
Nicholas Roders and which proposed
to have the people of the county vote
on bond issue of 100000, was de-
ferred indefinitely but with the under
standing that the matter will not be
brought up in time to submit the ques-
ton to the people at the coming cleo
tions in the city and county. Mem
bers of the board, almost to a man,
expressed themselves in favor of sub
hitting the question to the people for
a referendum vote, but they held that
the time was not ripe for such a
referendum and with the present con
ditions they held that the people would
not be in frame of mind which might
lead them to look favorable on an ex-
penditure Of so large sum for any
purpose.
Would Not Bind Future Board.
the submission of the question to the
vote at this time was the fact that
the terms of the present members Of
the board would expire in few weeks.
Supervisor Gerhard Dows who Aaadc
ne motion to defer action Indefinitely
on the resolution, declared that it
would be unfair for the present board
- Lnv In Of or-J - H.
elected in April. He declared that the
conditions in the business world at
this time might cause the people to
hesitate to vote in favor of any inn
provement and that negative vote on
the proposition might delay the carry
ing forward of the plans for years.
Several other members of the board
suggested that while they favored the
matter being submitted to the people,
that they did not believe that now was
the time to make the submission of
any such a question. 1t was declared
that the new board would organize
the first of May and that if the mem
bers of the board were ready to go
ahead with the court house plan that
there would be nothing to prevent
referendum being ordered at that time
and that it would probably be met
with greatly improved business con-
ditions.
Court House Dead for Year.
The action Of the board takes away
the last hope that anything will be
done to build court house this year,
as it is evident that the matter will
eventually be submitted to the people
and that the calling of a special cleo
ION after the new board organizes will
put any decision on a bond issue off
until too late in the year to expect
the building to be started this year
Members Of the board were of the
opinion that the general feeling ali
over the county was that the matter
should be laid over for another year
at least.
Discuss Road Building.
At the session this morning the
board had an interesting discussion Of
road building and the suggestion that
the county build its own concrete
roads was given serious consideration.

tiOns Warrant It.

tial district of a greater Kenosha, y
the Greater Kenosha Land company is
working out plan for the erection
Of hundred homes in the subdivisions
owned by the company during the COM
ing spring and if conditions warrant
the carrying out of the plan, the work
of erecting the homes will be started
with the very first week of spring
building. Plans for the financing of
the big movement were taken up at a
meeting of the directors and stock
holders of the company held on last
Saturday evening and, it is announced
that the money necessary will be pro-
vided if the real need is shown for
the homes. It is the belief of the
officials of the company that the cree
ton of hundred homes in this sub
division will greatly stimulate the
erection of new residence buildings in
Kenosha during the coming building
season.

who was one Of the moving spirits in
the organization Of the Greater Keno
sha Land company. has retired from

ness of the company and has served

Attorney Alfred L. Drury has been
elected as secretary of the company
to succeed Mr.. Dayton. The retiring
secretary of the company still has
some holdings Of real estate with the
company and this interest will be re-
tanned by him.
Reports Show Big Sales.
The reports of the business Of the
company made to the stockholders and
directors at the annual meeting show
ed that nearly nine hundred of the
eleven hundred lots offered in the
three subdivisions had been sold
through the Charles P. Gray company
of Chicago, who were in charge Of the
sales for the company. It is declared
by the officers Of the company that
the payments on lots sold are being
kept UP and that considering the I'M
employment situation. very few trans

BRICK MASONS
ACCEPT SCALE
KenOsha Masons Accept 81
an Hour Wage Set by
Master Builders.
OTHER ACTION SOON

A rift in the clouds that have been
lowering over the building situation
in Kenosha occurred today when it
became known that the brick masons
had accepted the $1.00 an hour wage
scale which was recently set by the
master builders of Kenosha The
scale for the brick masons has form
erly been $1.12h but their representa-
tives in a conference with the officials
of the master builders organization
declared that they were satisfied with
the new scale.
1t is believed that the action Of the
brick masons will have great influence
building trades to accept the new
scale.
Have Amicable Conference.
"0ur conference with the brick ma
sons was entirely satisfactory to both
parties" declared one of the officers
of the master builders organization.
"The men representing the brick ma
sons declared that their union had
recognized the change in the indus
trial condition and were willing to aid
in solving the problem. They said that
they were willing to accept any wage
which was reasonable and that they
believed that S100 an hour under the
present conditions was such wage"
The crafts which are members Of the
Building Trades Council have not yet
had their meetings for the month of
January and have taken no action on
the proposal of the master builders.
It has been Informally stated by some
of their members that tho cat in
wages would not be accepted.
Hear from Convention.
The master builders held a meeting
Tuesday evening in the Pompeiian
room at the Elks Club at which time
they heard reports from their dele
gates to the state convention recently
hid at GAINESVILLE. Favorable action
was also taken on proposition which
will make their organization more per-
manent in Kenosha, the full details
of which will be announced later.
The local master builders endorsed
the action of the state convention and
agreed to follow out the proposals
made at the state meet.
