Have Difficulty in
Opening Highway so
Men Working on County Road With
Rotary Plow Have to Battle Wind
Which Drifts Path in Again.

County employees who are attempt
ing to break through Highway so to
Lake Geneva are experiencing con-
siderable difficulty, it was stated to-
day The men are working with one
of the big rotary plows, but the wind,
which gets long sweep at some of
the heavy cuts, fills them up with
drifting snow almost as fast as the
machines and men can clean them out,
A trail has been broken open to
Woodwork, nine miles west of the
city. The machines are now working
west of here. Highway No. Is is open
to the county line in both directions,
while machines are getting through
to both Chicago and Milwaukee with
little trouble.
The North Shore buses which are
scheduled for Lake Geneva are not at
tempting to make the run, it was an
nounced today by officials of the road.

Milwaukee Road !.
is Cleared Again
Between Kenosha and
Milwaukee and Racine by Auto
is Open Again.

Communication between Kenosha
and other cities on the lake shore IS
possible again, Highway Is having
now been opened up its entire length
from Kenosha to Milwaukee. From
Racine Highway 20 leading to Bur
lington, Waterford and other points
west CT that city, has not yet been
opened. Highway 81 is declared open
but travel is most difficult because of
the foot of snow which still remains
on the surface.
Crews are still at work throughout
the county in efforts to open all the
roads possible and communication is
being rapidly restored.
While warm spell is generally
hailed with delight, the present one
is causing anxiety to the farmers who
fear that if not removed at once the
snow and ice will become packed so
hard that it will be spring before it
can be shoveled and leave the high
ways entirely free.

HIKER FOUND
BRIDE ON TRIP
Leonard Day, Who Halted
Here, Found Bride in
Stevens Point.
ASKED NO QUESTIONS

Romance was found by Leonard Day,
hiker-novelist, who made many friends
in Kenosha last summer when he halt
ed here for a few days on his strange
10,572-mile hike around the rim OF
the United States. Word reaching Ke-
nosha this morning stated that Day,
having completed his hike and won his
wager, is walking back from San Fran
cisco to Stevens Point to claim Miss
Ruby Footit, a pretty country school
teacher as his bride.
Day met his bride-to-be while he was
being entertained at Stevens Point.
He has stated that with marriage his
hiking days will be over and that
after the wedding he and his bride will
motor to New York on honeymoon
trip and then return to San Carlos,
Calf, to make their home.
Could Ask for Nothing.
Dav was strange character. While
in Kenosha he explained the regula-
tions of the long hike which he was
taking. He believed enough in the in
herent kindness of human nature that
he wagered that he could Mike around
the rim of the country supporting him
self by gifts offered to him voluntarily.
He could not ask for a thing. No
matter how hungry he was he had to
wait until someone offered him food.
He wore his clothes until they were
tatters until some kindhearted person
gave him new suit. He could accept
all meals offered him and all money
but could ask for none.
Many strange gifts were collected on
the trip. One of these was cane on
which he had nailed many trophies of
the hike. When he reached Kenosha
&c 81 / a dog which had been given him
by 1he Waukegan fire department
Here he was presented with a gift of
slothi1S'.
Did Bride Pop Question?
Among his friends in Kenosha the
question has arisen as to whether, the
terms of the wager prevented him from
asking the hand of the young lady
school teacher at Stevens Point. Per-
haps he had to wait for her to "pop
the question" and it wasn't even lear
year.
Well, at any rate, they are to be
married. Kenoshans are hoping that
he will halt few hours in Kenosha on
his honeymoon motor trip from Stevens
Point to New York to California,

Mrs. Lars BergstrOm, Age
II, of $50 Edward ST.,
Dies Suddenly.
DIED DURING NIGHT
Coroner Truman T. Parker At
tributes Heart Failure as
the Direct Cause.

Mrs. Marie Bergstrom, 70 years old,
was found dead in bed at her home,
500 Edward street, by her husband,
Lars, when he went to her room to
awaken her early today.
Coroner Truman T. Parker was inn
mediately notified Following his in
vestigation he announced that death
was due to acute dilation of the heart.
The body was removed to the Hansen
morgue. No physician was called uue
to the fact that it was evident that
the woman had been dead for several
hours when the body was found.
According to the family Mrs. Berg
strom's death came without the slight
est warning. Yesterday she seemed
in the best of health, it was said. Dur
ing the morning, she, in company with
several friends, attended services at
the First Swedish Baptist church, af-
ter which she returned home and ate
a hearty lunch.
During the afternoon she visited
with friends, and appeared to be in
the best of spirits. In the evening
she had dinner and retired to her
room about 9:15 o'clock That was
the last time the family saw her alive.
When Mr.. Bergstrom, who sleeps on
the first floor, arose this morning he
found that his wife had not arisen.
He went upstairs to her room and
Knocked on the door and called to
he1. Failing to receive an answer he
Knocked again, and then went in.
The woman was apparently sleep
ing, and he gently shook her by the
shoulder to awaken her. When she
failed to respond he looked more
closely and discovered that she was
dead. He called other members of
the family who summoned the cor
oner and the ambulance.
Arrangements for the funeral, it
was stated, will be announced later.
Mrs. Bergstrom is survived by one
son, and four daughters. They were
Mrs. o. E. Johnson of Kenosha, Axel
Bergstrom of Los Angeles, Mrs. A. B.
Markcolter of Chicago, Mrs. H. R.
b omberg Of Prentice, Wisconsin, and
Mrs. o. V. Nystrom.

like a corkscrew than human being
as he stood twisting and trembling and
his voice shook with the general dis
