New Citizens Join
American Flag
Many Pledge Their Allegiance to the
Country of Their Adoption -
This Morning.

Fourteen new citizens who had just
been taken under the wing of Uncle
Sam and who pledged to allegiance
to this country and the American flag,
stood before Judge Belden in circuit
court his morning and received the
congratulations of the court on their
entry into full citizenship.
Among the number was one woman,
Lydia Steinseifa, who accompanied by
her small daughter, came into the court
for her final papers, acknowledged
as citizen.
Attorney Alfred L. Drury addressed
the group, telling them that it was
not enough to be called citizen but
that each one of them should hence
forth fulfill his duties as such. The
first duty, he said, was to go to the
polls and vote and register his opinion
in the making and shaping of the laws.
This afternoon still more prospec-
tive citizens will be examined in court
by Naturalization Examiner Jordan
with the certainty that others will be
added to the fold.
The new citizens who pledged their
allegiance to the United States this
morning we're: Lydia Steinseifa, Joseph
Gogola, Frank Junkel, Allessio Barco,
Anton Lubniewski, Giuseppe Pinzia,
Albert Lucci, Abraham Steinberg, Chas.
Phillips, Isadore Anton Rewinski, Stan
ley Gorecki, Henry Clifford Latham,
Paul Victor Pankowski and Stefan
Bobinschi.

her. For this act she was awarded
the Knighthood of the Order of Franz
Joseph by Emperor Charles of Hun
gary, who succeeded his father upon
the latter's death in 1916.
Took Part in Revolution.
The Hungarian forces were decisive
ly defeated on the Italian front in
October, 1918, and on November l, ar
mistice terms were presented. On No
vember IL, the abdication of Charles
was announced. Later that month the
Republic Of Hungary was proclaimed
at Budapest with Count Michael
Karolyi as president. Karolyi sue
ceeded in welding together for common
action all the opposing factions and
nationalities in the empire, but lack
of food, scarcity of funds and the gem
eral rehabilitation of the times,
which Miss Kreisch describes so
wildly, proved serious obstacles
against the formation of a stable re-
gime, and in March, 1919, new revo-
luton led by Bella Kun, overthrow the
Karolyi government. 1t was here that
the heroine-now plain Comrade The
resa Kreisch, found new adventures.
She staked her efforts against the revo-
lutionists and radicals and sided with
the royalists. Hers she had many
opportunities to show the sterling
qualities with which her character
abounded, and she became one Of the
greatest aides to the opposition forces.
In 1922 when new signs of the times
tended to the establishment of a
monarchy under Prince Otto, the 10
year-old son of Charles and Zita, un-
der the regency of Admiral Michael
Horthy, Miss Kreisch believed her
work for her fatherland was done, and
on August 20, 1922 she boarded ship
for America, coming to Kenosha to
visit friends.
Romance is Aftermath.
But if Miss Kreisch expected only
peace and quiet in America, she was
destined to be further pursued by new
adventures in the form of romance,
On March %, of this year, John Klotz
was injured in an automobile accident.
He was rushed to st. GATHERINGS hos
pital where large wound in his head
was treated. Through the suggestion
of Mrs. Peter Leuck, Jr., sister Of
John Klotz, and friend of Miss
Kreisch, the injured man was removed
to his home on Pleasant street, and
Miss Kreisch was called to nurse him
back to health. 1t was here that the
spark of romance was kindled into a
flame that reached it's sclimax this
morning in the marriage of the two.
Mrs. Klotz is charming young lady,
above the average in intelligence as
we'll as in experience. She speaks six
languages and her only regret is that
she must now begin to master the
English language, which to her-as
she explained it in German-"has too
many letters in the words that are
no good"
Mr.. and Mrs. Klotz will be at home
at 173 North Pleasant street after a
short wedding trip.

START TWO UNITS SOON

Announcement was made this morn
ing of the completion of the organiza-
tion of the personnel and directors OF
the Midwest Development company, a
concern organized for the purpose of
erecting and selling houses in Keno
sha. The company has all ready start
ed on it's first unit of homes which are
now being erected in the Brookside
Garden subdivision on South Rowland
avenue.
Thomas S. Scott was elected presi-
dent of the company with ]. A. Foster,
Jr., as secretary and C! F. Miller,
treasurer. The directors of the COM
pany are: A. E. Buckmaster, Christ

Brookside Gardens, will be built to sell
at between $4,000 and $4,000. The
second unit is to be built on Second

fenced in the building trade, has been
named as construction superintendent
for the company. The company was
recently incorporated for $4,000 capt.

PICNIC TURNED
INTO TRAGEDY
Little Bobbie Martin, 8
Years Old, Dies as Re-
suit of Accident.
FELL INTO HOT WATER
Child is Badly Scalded When
He Backs Into Kettle of
Boiling Water.

A church picnic was turned into a
tragedy on Saturday afternoon when
little "Bobbie" Martin, the three year
old son Of Mr.. and Mrs. Theodore G..
Martin, 664 Rowland avenue, was badly
scalded when he fell into kettle of
boiling water at Lincoln Park. The
child was scalded from his shoulders
to his feet; he was hurried to the St.
GATHERINGS hospital where heroic
measures were used in futile efforts to
save his life. Death came to end his
suffering early Sunday morning.
The accident put an end to the plans
for the picnic, the members of the
picnicking party being SO upset by the
tragic accident that an end was called
to the outing. Everything possible
was done to aid the lad and the par
ents in their grief.
Backed Into Kettle.
No one knows just how the accident
happened. A kerosene stove had been
brought to the park and women of the
church had heated a large kettle filled
with water on this; in order to place
another vessel on the stove, the kettle
had been placed on the ground only a
few seconds before the accident.
Little Bobbie was running around
the picnic grounds with other children.
Only a few minutes before the acct
dent, his mother had gone to take him
off the bridge for fear that some harm
might come to him there. 1t is be-
lieved that the child in his play back
ed into the kettle, the lid slipping
and allowing him to fall into the
scalding water.
Father Heard Child's Screams.
Theodore G. Martin, father of the
child, heard the child's screams and
realizing that it was his boy, hurried
to his aid. He was among the first
to reach the lad, who had been
lifted out of the boiling water. The
light summer clothing which the lit
tie fellow wore, was torn off him,
the flesh coming with it. With all
haste the child was hurried to the st.
GATHERINGS hospital where DR.. B. J.
Schwartz attended him and dressed
the burns.
From the first physicians told the
parents that there was no hope for
the child's recovery, More than half
of the skin had been scalded from the
child's body, making it almost certain
that the child would die from uremic
poisoning. There have been few in
stances where anyone has lived with
one-third of the skins surface de-
stroyed. Opiates were given to ease
the pain and the baby died quietly
Sunday morning.
Funeral to be Held Tuesday.
Robert Earl Martin, the victim of the
accident, was born in Kenosha. He
was known and loved throughout the
community where he lived as "Bobbie"
and his tragic death has cast shadow
over the entire CITY, He is survived
by his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Theodore
G. Martin, and by six brothers and
sisters, Ruby, William, Frances, Sylvia,
Pearl and George Martin.
The funeral services will be held
Tuesday afternoon at the home at 6e4
Rowland avenue at two o'clock fol-
lowed by services at the Grace Luth-
eran church at two o'clock. Inter
ment will be in the family plot in the
Green Ridge cemetery.

GAINING.

More Americans are being born thar
are dying. Census figures show that
close to % babies were born last year
for each 1000 population, with only Il
deaths.
That gives US an excess of II births
year for each 1000 population. II
means that Americans are increasing
in numbers nearly 100000 a year
without the aid of immigration. All
that, rate, it won't be many centuries
until we have as many people as
China.
Nature will kill off the surplus by
wars and disease epidemics if we get
too many. Increasing population, when
it reaches certain point, breeds its
own destruction.
