Father Thinks Young Man
Who Tried to Stop Train
is Not Demented.
STILL HELD AT JAIL
Milwaukee Young Mans Father
Comes to KenOsha to Aid Him
and Explain Queer Actions.

Michael Anick, Milwaukee county
farmer, came to Kenosha Friday af-
ternoon to visit his son, George Anick,
who is held at the county jail in con-
nection with an affair Wednesday af-
ternoon when he was caught after
placing some ties and wires across
the Chicago & Northwestern tracks
near the Balm station. Young Anick
when he was caught stated that he
wanted to make the train, (which was
going too fast" His father came here
following an interview with Detective
Weigel of the Northwestern company,
who paid visit to Milwaukee Thurs
day afternoon for that purpose. He
sought to get his son, out of Jail and
take him home with him, but this
could not be permitted until the rail
way company had completed their in
vestigation of the affair.
Anick Only in Trouble Once.
Michael Anick is a. farmer in a
small way near Milwaukee where he
has about fifty acres of land, five
horses, cows and 50 on.> His son has
been working in Milwaukee and living
at home but on September 5, according
to the father, he ran away. The par
ents had word from him from Mime
apolis, after his departure, and then
the next news they received was when
Detective Weigel impaired the en-
barassing information that George was
in the county Jail at Kenosha.
The father said that his son had
only been arrested once before and
that was when he was a boy of four
teen on minor charge. He said that
he believed there was nothing the
matter with him, and the only thing
he had personally to find fault with,
was his tendency to disappear from
home. Young Anick is now IS years
of age, and in appearance looks as if
he were about TO-
The authorities here were inclined
to think from young Anick's behavior
that he was not responsible for his
actions and that an inquiry should be
made into his mental conditions. The
father secuted such a theory. 1t is
now thought that perhaps the fact that
the young man had been without food
for some time when he was found
near Balm station after placing the
ties on the track, may account partly
for his behavior. The elder Anick
said that at the time the young man
left home on September 5, he had $50
with him in addition to the five days
pay which he had just drawn.

MIKE JOHNOVICZ
Is BOUND OVER
Saloonkeeper of SO North
Main Street Loses the
First Inning.
MOON UNDER STEPS
Police Found Bottle of Moon
Under Steps of His House
When Home Was Raided.

The "artful lodging" ruse resorted
to by Mike Johnovicz, SO North Main
street, failed to prevent him from get
ting on the calendar of the circuit
branch of the municipal court, for af-
ter preliminary hearing in his case
this morning he was bound over until
the next term, bonds fixed and fur
nished.
Johnovicz' saloon was raided by
the old sponge squad consisting of
Asst. Chief Cyzak, 1t. Rock, Sgt. Mel
busch and Officer Chase. Under the
steps of the building in the rear they
found bottle of moonshine. 1t. Rock
and Officer Chase testified to the find
ing of the liquor this morning at the
preliminary hearing and it was this
testimony which resulted in Johnovicz
being bound over.
Doesn't Know How It Got There.
Johnovicz was represented in court
this morning by Atty. R. V. Baker and
1t was his contention that there was
nothing in the testimony of the police
officers which showed that Johnovicz
himself had placed the bottle CT moon
shine under the steps. 1t was argued
that the saloonkeeper might have had
some enemy who had played the naugh-
ty trick on him in order to get him
into court and perhaps pay fine.
This thin pretext of the defense was
shown up in, all its threadbareness
when the police told of finding a place
in the garden of Johnovicz back of the
saloon which gave indications of being
used for a moonshine-h hole, which was
covered and hidden from sight.
The assistant district attorney ar
gued that the moonshine was found on
the premises and that the word "prem-
ises" covered house, steps, grounds and
all of the property leased by Johnovicz.
He further argued that if the state had
to prove who had placed the liquor in
the particular position in which it was
found, they would have to prove that
the proprietor had placed moonshine
behind the bar in cases where a man
was brought to trial on account of
liquor found there.

COUJNPTERFEITERS
MAY COME HERE
Police Send Out Warming
Against Strange Ital-
ian Motorists.
PLAY GARAGES AS FISH

Filling stations, garages and auto
mobile repair shops are asked by the
police to be on their guard of group
of strange Italians who are making
use of automobiles in operation
through the country where they are
passing counterfeit notes in their
travels from town to town. The no.
tice to the police to be on the look
out for the men was received today by
the chief of police from the secret
service division of the treasury de-
partment.
The bills which the men are said
to be passing are silver certificates of
SIS and national bank notes of $40 and
$40. Anyone who is rendered bills of
this denomination under suspicious
circumstances is invited to report the
case Immediately to the police office.
The description of the counterfeit
money which has been successfully
passed by the Italian motorists in 9TH
er cities at garages and filling sta
tions is given by the treasury depart
ment as follows
So Silver Certifcate-Series 1899;
check letter "B"; J. w. Lyons. regis
ter of the treasury; Ellis H. Roberts,
treasurer of the United States; Indian
portrait. This counterfeit is printed
from photo-mechanical plates of fair
workmanship on two pieces of paper
between which silk threads have been
distributed. The blue seal and large
"V" with superimposed give" on the
face of the bill are too light. The
number of the specimen at hand is
8601349. The figures of this number
are too heavy and too dark. This
counterfeit will deceive the careless
handler of money.
$40 Nstinoal Bank Notion the
First National bank of Ozone Park,
Ozone Park, New York; check letter
"F'; series of 1902; w. T. Vernon.
register of the treasury; Charles H.
Treat, treasurer of the United States;
portrait of William Mckinley. The
counterfeiter has made a mistake in
the blue charter number of this note.
The correct charter number which APP
pears in the border of the bill is 1866,
whereas the heavy blue figures on the
face of the counterfeit are 1868. The
signatures of the cashier, w. L. Hop
kins, and President John B. Reimar
of this bank, which appear on the gen
uine in black ink, are printed in blue
ink on the counterfeit. The bill is
printed from photo mechanical plates
on single piece of paper without silk
threads or imitation of them.
$50 National Bank Notion the
Grand Rapids National City Bank of
Grand Rapids, Michigan; check letter
"B"; series of 1902; w. T. Vernon,
register of the treasury; Lee Me-
Chung, treasurer of the United States;
portrait of Hugh McCulloch. This
counterfeit bears the charter No. 1928
in the border of the note, which is the
correct charter number of the bank,
but in large blue figures on the face
of the note the charter number is
1926. These blue figures, and the let
ter IN" indicating the geographical
location of the bank, are heavier than
the genuine. The note is printed
from photo-mechanical plates of fair
workmanship on two pieces of paper
between which few fine silk threads
have been distributed. These threads,
however, can not be seen on the face
of the note as in the genuine.
