Italian Secret Society

Camorra was the name Of n secret
society, formerly existing in Naples
and the vicinity, the members of which
were called Camorristi. For many
years 1t terrorized the country, plum
dering the inhabitants and extorting
money from all trades and occupa-
tons. 1t also transported s~muggled
goods and contracted for the commits
sion of desperate crimes. The Canon
risti were long tolerated for political
reasons and rendered efficient aid to
the cause of Garibaldi in the expul-
sion of the Bourbons; but some years
after they proved so annoying to the
newly established government of Italy
that in 1874 they were banished.-Kan-

Dies Suddenly
William Hartnell, Long a Sailor on
the Lakes, Died This Morning
Very Suddenly.

William Hartnell, aged 10, for many
years sailor on the boats out of the
Kenosha harbor, died very suddenly
this morning at his home at 727 Elk
change street. He had apparently
been in good health when he retired
on Monday night; this morning he was
heard to breathe heavily and when
members of the family reached his side
he was dead. An attack of heart trou-
Bile is believed to have been the cause
of death.
The deceased was born in New
Foundland, July 26, 1854, the son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph Hartnell. He had
lived his early life in that community
learning the trade Of sailor there.
More than forty years ago he came to
Kenosha and for many years was a
sailor out of this port. For the last
few years he has been employed at the
Central Fuel and Ice company.
Surviving him are his widow, Mrs.
Katherine Hartnell, five daughters,
Mrs. Jessie Fox, Chicago; Mrs. Ida En-
gel, Kenosha; Mrs. Anna Ager, Racine
Mrs. Ella Hurd, Kenosha, and Miss
Evelyn Hartnell, Chicago; five broth
ers,. Joseph, Eli, Charles, Frank and
Henry HartRell, all of Kenesha or Ke-
nosha county, and one sister, Mrs.
Susan Noren, of -Galifornia.
The remains were taken to the Han
sen Funeral Home. Definite arrange
ments for the funeral services have
not yet been announced but they will
probably be held Thursday afternoon
at the home on Exchange street with
increment in the family plot in the
Green Ridge cemetery.

.CICCHINIS WAR
WITH POLICEMAN
Officer Amberlang Hauls
in Entire Bunch at
POOlrOOm.
ALL IN COURT TODAY

War broke out on Rowland avenue
Sunday night in the poolreom OF the
Cicchinis and for time it seemed as
if Bedlam had turned loose and as If
the Tower of Babel had loosed its
tongues upon the wet night air.
ALI the excitement was between the
Cicchini freres, James and Herman,
both of whom are we'll known in po-
lice circles, and one lone police officer,
Charles Amberlang. AS result this
morning both James and Herman Gle
chini appeared in the municipal court
to answer a charge of disorderly con-
duct against them. They pleaded not
guilty, and the cases were set for
hearing June 16 at 2 p, M, bail in
each case fixed at $50.
Officer Looked In.
officer Amberlang believes in look
ing into poolrooms and other places
where men and youths congregate to
see that the gatherings are orderly
and seemly, and at such places where
the gatherings are within the law he
is usually given civil if not always
cordial greeting.
Sunday night at elO:zu p. M the po-
lice officer stepped into the CicchiRA
poolroom which is in the southwey1
corner of Rowland avenue and Eliza
beth street, below Sulhvan's drug
store.
According to the complaint the of
ficer later made at headquarters, he
was greeted with a volley of oaths
and bad language from the two Cic-
chini brothers. The policeman lost
no time in calling the wagon, and
hauled every man who was in the
place down to the station. Charges of
d:sorderly conduct were placed against
the Cicchinis.
Those who gave their names at the
police Office were Charles Jackson, 700
Lyman avenue, Ray Hammond, 717 Elm
street, Albert ColeweH, and Emil Kali
such, both of Milwaukee, Chester La
fayette, HOG Avery street, Joe Des-
moni, 675 Superior street, and Charles
Thomas of Paddock's Lake. There
were no charges against these men,
but it is expected that they will be
summoned as witnesses when the case
is called.

LIVELY CAMPAIGN ON


Another political race for. the fall

for the Republican nomination Tor
recister of deeds of Kenosha county
Late Saturday afternoon John q
Crawford, formerly a teacher and now
engaged in a realty and collection
business, took out papers to place his
name in the race for the office. 1t was
learned unofficially this morning that
Bert Shaw, former register OF deeds
would also be candidate for the
Republican nomination.
No papers have yet been taken out

Both Are Experienced.
Both of these men are experienced
lin the line of work which is needed
for the conduct of the office. Mr..
Crawford, while he has not served in
this capacity, is we'll acquainted with
legal documents and understands the
work required of the office.
Mr.. Shaw as register of deeds serv-
ed the county most efficiently. After
his term of office expired he was con-
tinued in the employ of the county to
complete the transcript of the deeds
made when Kenosha county was part
of Racine county
No papers have yet been sought by
Register of Deeds John F. Schmitt,
who was elected on the Democratic
ticket, but it is being presumed that
he will seek the nomination of. that
t. cket.
County Clerk Charles Holderness
stated this morning that all fndica-
tions were that Kenosha county is to
have a most lively campaign this fall.
Whit the time for the taking out of
nomination papers opened only few
days ago, there have already been en-
tered in the county races several cam
didates. There are now two @avowed
candidates for the Republican nominal
ton for sheriff, one for county treas

This honor was granted to the Ke-
nosha man on account of the fact that
he was the sole Coolidge delegate
which Wisconsin sent to the conven-
ton.
At the caucus of the Wisconsin
delegation held at the lWinton hotel
on Monday evening Mr.. Scott was
shown every courtesy and was also
the object of a good deal of fun polk
ing.
Casperson Names Scott.
Congressman H. A. Cooper of the
First Wisconsin District was named
by the caucus as a member of the res
olutions committee and he made an
address to the caucus in which he
lauded Senator LaFollette and the in
surgents in congress.
As soon as the Cooper speech was
over Senator Casperson of Frederic
arose:
s'For the honor of notifying the
candidate of his nomination | pro-
pose the lone Coolidge delegate from
Wisconsin, Mr.. Thomas Scott" he de-
clared amidst tremendous laughter.
The motion was quickly seconded and
put to vote and carried. Later
committee was appointed to notify Mr..
Scott that he had been appointed a
member of the committee to notify
the nominee Mr.. Scott did not at
tend the caucus and he was waiting
for the outcome with his pal from
Kenosha- Charles H. Pfennig-in an
other part of the hotel.

issued Tuesday afternoon. From the
present indications, the Wisconsin
delegation will not only represent La

direct~the activities of the anti-Cool-

its form of attack at the convention,
and announcing several resolutions to

be presented to the convention, and
include a request that President Cool
