Officers Arrest Man Want
ed as Witness in Old
Shooting Case.
ON BURGLARY CHARGE
Klous to Be Arraigned on
Charge of Robbing DR..
StapletOn's Office.

John Klous, the missing link" who
has been wanted for some time in
Kenosha as witness in the Iaquinto
and Chiappetti attempt at murder
cases, was arrested Monday night just
as he came into town, by Assistant
Chief Cyzak and Lieutenant Rock.
Klous was arrested on a burglary war;
rant in connection with another case,
but the police were especially glad to
have him near at hand because of the
west side shooting ARRAYS of a year
ago, and he was given a cordial well
come at headquarters, and conducted
with due ceremony and politeness to
a cell in the city lookup.
Partner in State Prison.
The specific charge against Klous is
that of burglary of DR.. Stapleton's Of
fee and theft of an electric motor.
The police received the information
that Klous was the one who COM
mitted the burglary from Peter Tur,
who was sentenced to Waupun in
August after being convicted of the
charge of grand larceny. When Tur
was arrested a.. number of stolen ar
ticles were found in his possession,
including the electric motor. Tur ad-
mitted the theft Of the other things
but said that the motor had been given
him by John Klous, who in turn, he
said, had stolen it from DR.. Stapleton
whose office he had robbed.
The police tried to find John Klous
in Kenosha, but he had left town and
constant lookout here and notice
to other cities failed to reveal Klous
whereabouts.
Meanwhile Other Cases Come Up. J..
Meanwhile the two Iaquintas, Tom
and Frank, we're found. They were
wanted in connection with the west
side shootings last fall which resulted
in one murder, that of another Frank
Iaquinto. Two cases were begun with
preliminary hearings in the municipal
court which went far to clear up these
west side shootings.
John Klous was walking down How
land avenue with Frank Iaquinta in
September 1921, when they were shot
at from ambush. Sam Chiappetti is
the one believed by the police to be
responsible for that affair, which re-
suited in the wounding of Klous and
Iaquinta, and is now under bonds
awaiting trial in the, circuit court on
the charge of attempt at murder.
Later in November of the same year
-Chiappetti was shot at in the same
neighborhood and Frank Iaquinta is
out on bonds awaiting trial, on the
charge of attempt at murder in that
case. ..
1t is expected that John Klous will
be an important witness so far as the
details of the first shooting affair are
concerned.
The arrest Of Klous on Monday night
took place at the corner of West Main
and Middle street where he was
recognized by the police as their long
lost friend.
( John Klous pleaded not guilty to the
charge of burglary this morning in
the municipal court and was placed
under bonds of $500 for appearance
at preliminary hearing December Sth
In default Of bail, Klous was commit
ted to the county Jail.

OLD RESIDENTS
LEAVE KENOSHA
To Make Home in Michigan
After Sixty Years in
This City.
WILLIAM MAGILL IS 81

A little old man with blue eyes and
veritable halo of. white hair, who
boasts of 81 years, and his spouse who
is SO, are leaving Kenosha this week,
after spending over half century, here.
Beside bringing pangs of farewell and
poignant regrets, the tearing up of
deeply rooted associations, has recalled
memories to the old couple which are
most interesting. Speaking reminis-
Gently, with light in his eyes, seen
only in those which have watched the
growth of their city from its infancy,
William Magill told some of his
memoirs.
81 came to Southport" he said, "when
was eleven years old, from Erie, Pa,
where / was born in 1881. The first
thing I saw was Lake Michigan and it
fascinated me to watch the sail boats
go back and forth. l went to school,
of course, first to Mr.. Wilder and
then to Miss Malby. Then we had q
public school and was one Of the
first to enroll. I believe it is where
the Weiskopf is now"
Longs for the Lake.
But all the time from his first ar
rival here, his heart had been with the
white sails which suggested untold pos
sibilities of romance and adventure.
He was especially fond Of the Square
rugged" vessels, because, in these were
the highest riggings and the sailors
were obliged to climb about like sea-
faring monkeys. At the age of 16 he
realized his ambition and became an
employee on the F. B. Gardener boat
line, in rubber trade run from Chi
cago to Green Bay.
For thirty-five years ne sailed every
summer and went south in the winter
In the meantime, Miss Jane McReadie
came to Southport and young William
went counting. They were married in
1860.
"If anybody had suggested that the
cheese-box, fan-mill and insulator fac
tory, where I worked for while, would
some day be the huge manufacturing
concern that Simmons plant is today,
we would have thought they were era
zy," said the old man. "The Balm
Wagon Works was the only real shop
then@and it was run by the Mitchell
Quarles company"
All of Magill's trips were not con-
fined to Lake Michigan, and once in a
trip from Chicago to Buffalo with
cargo of grain, the wind came with
such force that they were blown out
of their course and were forced to land
in Canada. Once they were wrecked
on the shores of Manistee, Mich, in a
storm. "Many times" said Magill, "the
wind has been so bad while | was up
in the rigging that the waves washed
up over the yard-arms."
Go to Daughter.
Mr.. and Mrs. Magill have three chill
dren, two sons and a daughter They
reared them and have lived since their
children's departure in the same place,
at TIA Pearl street. The same house
has been their home for 81 years and
they still have some of the furniture
with which they started housekeeping
81 years ago. In all probability, they
will not return to Kenosha, but will
make their home permanently with
their daughter, Mrs. Ella Lane, in
Pontiac, Michigan. With them go the
sincere love and good wishes of hosts

CHOOSING THE HOLLY

Superstitious people assert that one
should be careful about the choice of
the holly for the decorations. Part
should be smooth and part prickly.
Then providing both kinds are carried
into the house at the same time, all
will be we'll. But should the priekly
variety be taken in first, then the hus-
band will rule the household during the
coming year; if the smooth is brought
in first, the wife will be stop dog"

County Board Argues Paw
ing Program for the
Coming Season.
HEAR CITY OFFICIALS
City Manager and Other Off
Gals Come to Rescue of
Geneva Road Project.

To pave or not to pace the re
mainder Of the Geneva road or any
portion Of that remainder was the
board today as the fight was brought
to an issue on the question of what
was to be done with the $4,000 re-
maindre Of the bond issue money,
raised for the paving of the Geneva
road. The discussion started Monday
afternoon resulting in a vote of IL
to for rejecting a motion that the
money be used to pave an additional
mile of the Geneva road from the Fox
river bridge as far as the money would
allow, probably through the village of
New Munster.
The fight for the Geneva road was
resumed this morning when a motion
to reconsider the vote on the motion
mentioned above, was introduced by
Supervisor White. Investigation prov
ed that he had voted aye on the ques-
ton and was out of order. Supervisor
Cook then made the motion.
Heated Discussion Followed.
A heated discussion followed.
Friends of the Geneva road project
painted it as the chief highway
across the county and pointed out the
necessities of completing the pave
ment for the good Of the entire coun-
ty. Those opposing the action remind
ed the board that state aid would
soon be available for the road and
that money placed on it now would
only be forcing the county to bear
larger share of the expense. They
claimed that the expenditure of the
remaining $4,000 would only serve to
force a detour next season without
completing the highway.
The other plan suggested was that
the $4,000 remaining should be trans
ferred to the fund for paving the road
from Salem to Antioch. Supervisor
Wicks of the town of Salem declared
that in the event that the money was
kept for the Geneva road he would
demand that the portion of it belong
ing to Salem be returned to that town.
Adjournment Hats Action.
Supervisor Cook finally withdrew his
motion for reconsideration TO open the
way for Supervisor Dowse to enter 8
motion that the funds be transferred
to the Salem-Antioch highway fund.
Vote on this was baked by a motion to
adjourn until two o'clock introduced
by Supervisor Barrows and passed
8 to s.
This afternoon the board is to con-
tinue the discussion. City Manager
C. M. Osborn and other city officials
are to be on hand to explain their
views regarding the situation. The
question of whether or not bond is
sue will be voted for completing the
Geneva road will be discusse1.
Adopt Highway Program.
The board on Monday afternoon
adopted the program for road improve
ment presented in the report of the
committee. This will make possible
o fund of $40,246.s2 available for the
work during the coming year. OF
this sum the county will pay $16,500;
the towns $16,500 and the state
$7,24682. The sums mentioned for
each town were as follows with state
aid given first, the county share and
the town share third:

In addition the following sums to
meet bond issue obligations were en-
dorsed:
Paris, $4,000; Bristol, SLABS; Pleas
ant Prairie, $500.
The paving of the Kilbourn road is
to be carried on this year no matter
what the action of the board may be
inasmuch as this is state highway
and the work has been ordered as a
state project.
Scholey's Bill Again.
The old, old bill of John Scholey,
the crusader for fees in connection
with booze raids bobbed up again when
Attorney Lewis Powell, representing
Scholey, appeared before the board and
asked for an appropriation to meet the
bill The question was referred to the
committee on district attorney ac-
counts to report back to the board as
quickly as possible.
The board also heard the report Of
County Humane Officer James Karnes
and voted an appropriation of $3.50 to
continue his work. An appeal from
H. j. Mellum for the Kenosha Service
League was answered by an appropri-
alton of $500 for that work. An APP
preparation of $500 for the emergency
fund Of the district attorneys Office
was also made at the morning session.

SUNDAY BILL BEFORE CON-
GRESS
To the Editor ocala Bann er::

To the Editor Ocala Bann er:
A very drastic Sunday bill is now
before congress, which if enacted in
to law will close up work of every
sort and kind in the District of Co
lumbia on Sunday. Our religious
friends who are laboring so zealousIy
to get the congress of the United
States committed to the principle of
religious legislation. by enacting
Sunday law, are at variance with the
first amendment of the constitution,
which declares, congress shall make
no law respecting an establishment
Of religion. or prohibiting the free ex-
ercise thereof
When the congress of this nation
shall enact a Sunday law for the Dis
trict of Columbia, such an action win
establish a precedent for Nation
Sunday law; and when that step has
been taken, the doom Of the religious
freedom, (the foundation of which
has been set like diamond in the
constitution) will have been fixed. The
onward march will surely be, step
by step, down the road of religious
intolerance, to religious tyranny.
That the good people of our coun-
try tend not at all in this direction,
let them forever cherish the patriotic
sentiment, that, eternal vigilance is
the price of liberty" We should let
our legislative servants understand
that no attempt must be made to re-
move the ancient landmarks which
our forefathers have set; by meddling,
or interfering with religious freedom
so firmly grounded in the Magma
Charter of the United States.
May voices everywhere be heard
saying Let the American constitu-
ton, wisely framed in the interests
of civil and religious liberty forever
remain as our forefathers established
it. Let the watchword of every man
who loves liberty and his country be,
liberty for all, oppression to none"
Very sincerely yours,
CHARLES P. WHITFORD.

OUR TIMER SUPPLY

We have been requested to print
the following preamble and resolu-
ions recently passed by the South
EN- Crate manufacturers Association
in session at Jacksonville:
Whereas. continuous supply Of
timber suitable for the manufacture
Of shipping containers for marketing
the constantly increasing crops of
fruits and vegetables grown in Flor
.da is OF vital importance-not alone
to the producing of revenue-but an
essential need of the consuming pub
tic Of the nation, in supplying it with
citrus fruits and vegetables at time
not elsewhere procurable. and is al
so principal factor in maintaining
existing transportation facilities,
largely dependent upon the movement
of these crops for it's principal reve-
nue..
And Whereas, government statistics
and our knowledge of conditions evi-
dence consumption of timber in
Florida far in excess of it's growth
and an imminent, critical shortage of
timber for the manufacture of ship
ping containers, unless the available
supply is conserved and extensive re-
forestation is employed.
Therefore, Be It Resolved, by the
! Southern Crate Manufacturers Asso-
citation, in regular session assembled,
/ that it urge the organizations of fruit
and vegetable growers associations;
the business interests of the state,
/ through its Chambers of Commerce; ;
! the railroads, through their officials !:
and the organizations of distributing
agecies. to forcibly represent these
needs TO their representatives in con.
gress and urge upon them the need
for adequate appropriation to permit
| the establishment of forest expert
ment stations in Florida on a scale
sufficiently broad to meet the require
ments of this critical situation, and
to further urge the passage OF a bill
introduced into the house Of repre-.
sentatives on December %, 1920. BY
Mr.. Smell, known as H. r. 1927, or
such substitute as may embody the
provisions contained in the enacting
clause, as follows:
To provide through cooperation
between the federal government, the
states, and owners of timberlands for
adequate protection against forest
! fires, for refoTestation of denuded
lands, for obtaining essential informa-
tion in regard to timber and timber
lands. for extension OF the national
| forests, and for other purposes, all
essential to continuous forest produc-
| tion on lands suitable therefor
Be II. Futher Resolved. that the
secretary of this association be di-
rected to send copies of this resolu-
ton to the several principal interests
involved and to the Florida senators
and representatives in congress.
