BOTH FEUDISTS
NOW LOCKED UP
Police Get Frank Chiappet-
tt Tuesday on Attempt
ed Murder Charge.
MYSTERY CLEARS UP
Chiappetti and Iaquinta, the
Original Enemies, to
Be Arraigned.

Another arrest on the west side in
connection with the shooting ARRAYS
OF last fall took place Tuesday evening
when the police took in tow Frank
Chlappetti, 904 Park street. The ar
rest was made by Assistant Chief of
Police Cyzak, Sergeant of Detectives
Rock and Detective Breidt and followed
the arrest of Frank Iaquinta on Sun
day night. The police are holding
Chiappetti on the charge of attempt to
murder, the same charge which is
placed against Iaquinta and on which
he will probably be arraigned sometime
today before Judge Slater.
These two men are believed to be
the original enemies whose hatred Of
each other resulted in three shooting
affairs in the Italian quarter last fall
and one murder.
Chiappetti in First ARRAY.
The first Of the series of three shoot
ing matches on the west side in the
fall of 1921 occurred on Septembe Z,
when Frank Iaquinta, the man now
held, Tom Iaquinta and John Klous
We're shot at from ambush at the cor
ner of Rowland avenue and Garden
street. A shotgun was used by the
man opening fire and it was only
through an accident that one of the
three men was not killed. The fortu-
nate accident was that most of the
shot lodged in plank which inter
vened and scattered the ammunition.
1t was apparent, according to the po-
lice, that the man using the shotgun
that night had picked out one of the
three men, Frank Iaquinta, for a tar
get and shot with the intention of
numbering the victim.
This assailant, according to the po-
lice, was Frank Chiappetti, who will
soon be arraigned on the charge of
attempt to murder.
Iaquinta Then Retaliated.
The next shooting affair. took place
on Sunday, November 81, 1921, when
Frank Chiappetti was shot and wound
ed near the Holy Rosary church on
Rowland avenue and Pearl street. The
police declare that on information they
now have in their possession the
would-be assassin in this case was
Frank Iaquinta, who, they believe,
sought to kill Chiappetta, thinking the
latter had tried to kill him. Chap
petit recovered in the Kenosha hospi-
tai and when the police tried to find
Frank Iaquinta, he had taken to cover.
The following Tuesday, November
10th, the third eruption of bad blood
took place when Frank Chiappetti was
in the hospital and Iaquinta in hiding.
This was the murder Of Frank Iaquin-
ia II, a cousin of the first Frank Iaquin-
ia. He was shot and instantly killed
early in the evening on that date at
the corner of Rowland avenue and
Garden street.

On the Eve of Forty seventh Anniversary the
Circuit Court Gives Him His
Freedom Once More.
BELDEN WRITES FINS TO CASE
Lang Smiling in the Midst of His Attorneys Thinks of
Home First No More Charges Against
Him He Starts Life Anew.

FRANK Lang at 1l:15 O'Clock this
morning walked out upon the steps
of the circuit court with a smile and
his freedom in his pocket. For the
first time in nearly two years he was
free man, and there were no prison
wardens or deputies at his heels to
keep tab of his movements, or tell him
to come here or go there. Judge
Belden had just handed him his liberty
and all the blessings of creation that
go with it, and Lang seemed to be
aware of only the immense signi-
ficance of this, feeling no. rancour
towards the red brick courthouse with
which so many memories were con-
nected.
tits my birthday tomorrow" said
Lang, smiling placidly. "I'll be forty
seven years old. This is the best birth
day present I'll ever get in my life, ]
reckon. I'm glad it happened now so
that l can spend the day with the
wife and family"
Now Look Pleasant All!
On the urging of a reporter Lang
was not unwilling to go down the street
to have his 'picture took" His laugh
ing attorneys, A. E. Buckmaster and
Walter Hammond, who were we'll
pleased with the outcome of their long
battle for him, were dragged along by
force to- the studio, to have their
pictures took" also.
"It's a chance to get rid of that old
cut in the News Office that was taken
of me twenty-five years ago." said Mr..
Buckmaster, when he finally was over
come by numbers and submitted to
his fate.
Lang was taken out to his home on
South Pleasant street, just before
noon. He was a little disappointed
when he found that his wife was not
there, and then he remembered that
she was working each day from seven
until twelve.
"Never mind" he said cheerfully.
"I'll be here when she comes. home
and surprise her"
Writes "Finis" to Story.
Thus this morning the last chapter
in the strange history of the case of
the state vs.. Frank Lang, was written.
It was written on a summer day under
a sunny blue sky floating great white
pillows of clouds. It was written quiet
ly too. When the case was called be-
fore Judge Belden, there was hardly a
spectator outside of the few court Of
fcials who witnessed the scene.
AS Judge Belden took the bench in
the county room with all the papers
in the case finally before him, Deputy
Sheriff Stanley Rauen and Eddy Haag
appeared with Frank Lang in their
custody, and Attorney A. E. Buck

ToDAY's QUESTION
What is the sound you like most to
hear2

What is the sound you like most to
hear?
ANSWERS:
Mrs. Fred Congdon, Kenosha School
of Music = To me the most beauti-
full sound in the world is to hear my
baby say Mamma A woman cannot
realize until motherhood how beauti-
full and how peculiarly thrilling is the
sound of baby's voice. To me it is
more beautiful than the most beauti-
full song. And what aan be sweeter
than to hear baby just past its first
birthday learning to talk?
Miss R. L. o., nurse In all my
years of experience as private nurse,
l look back upon the voice of a moth
er to her newly born child and the
grooming voice of the child in return
as the most beautiful sound / liked
most to hear. Of course there are
other pleasing sounds. 1 enjoy music
real music, not this so-called noise
they get from radio instruments.
Harry Jakin, 1872 Dayton street,
baseball fan" - Give me the sound
of the whack of the ball against the
baseball bat for home run and I'll
show you the sound l like most to
hear. And also give me the voices of
the rooters who won't knock a team
when it isn't winning and I'll show
you a real spirit And give me the
hammer that hits the knockers for a
row of hospitals and I'll show you
more real music.
Ralph Martin, Sheridan road, radio
expert What can be greater source
of relief and interest to the amateur
radio fan than to hear the first few
words or ticks or strains of music
coming over the outfit that he has
struggled over for weeks and he final
ly hears the sounds of his efforts ma
into realities? But sound
I don't like to hear is when the mo-
tor begins knockin'.

WIN in NEBRASKA
"Old Guard' Leaders Declared to
lave Big Lead as Vote is
Being Counted.
(By Associated Press Leased wire,)


Omaha, Neb.-Senator Gilbert M.
Hitchcock and R. B. Howell, Republican
national committee men, were nominal
ed at yesterdays statewide primaries
as Democratic and Republican can
didates, respectively, for United States
senator.
Senator Hitchcock's victory was
sweeping, the combined vote of his two
opponents, on the face of returns from
approximately one-third of the state
being about half that cast for the in
cumbent senator. Tabulation of votes
from 759 of the 1913 precincts in the
state shows Senator Hitchcock 24,177
against 1922 for J. O. Schroyer, his
nearest opponent.
Howell's lead over Congressman A..
w. Jefferis of Omaha, and Attorney
General C. A. Davis while safe, was by
no means as commanding. He showed
a margin of more than 5000 votes in
tabulation of returns from 800 pre-
cincts with Davis and Jefferis fluctu-
ating between second and third place
in the race and the three other can
didates hopelessly out distanced. The
vote stood: Howell, 20,896; Jefferis,
1908; Davis, 1851.
The Democratic gubernatorial race
between Dan B. Butler and Charles w.
Bryan, brother of w. J. Bryan, show
ed Butler leading with 772 precincts
heard from. The vote: Butler, 1926;
Bryan, 1885; Norton, 1922.
In the Republican race for the nom
nation of governor, Charles H. Ran
dali, was in the lead. In sos precincts,
Randall had 25,761; McMullen, 1856.
A. H. Byrum and G. w. Sterling,
the other two candidates, were hope
lessly beaten.

law abiding manner.

where and upon all Americans who love
justice to sustain the cause of the rail-

only remaining method of protest
against an injustice which must rank
as one of the most reprehensible which
any American industrial or political in
stitution has ever sought to impose.
"No workman, whether member of
a union or not, will, if he is possessed
of true American manhood, engage in
any work formerly done by men now
on strike.
"No man now on strike will, if he is
true to the cause conduct himself in
any but a law abiding manner.
"The cause for which the workers
are contending is worthy of every
just and proper effort that can be put
forth in its behalf.
"Let there be determination and
solidarity which shall at the same time
bring victory in the present struggle
and serve notice upon reactionary en-
ployers and financial interests every
where that there is to be no return
to autocratic, despotic methods in
American industrial life"
