Say Man Drove
Car on Sidewalk
Eli Lamielle is Charged With a Fio-
Iation of City Ordinance
Which is a Novel One.

Eli Lamielle came into court this
morning charged with driving an auto
mobile upon sidewalk, with Robert
Mitchell, a police officer, as complain
ant. Officer Amberlang made the ar
rest. Lamielle and Mitchell are next
door-neighbors and there is said to
have been some i'll feeling between
their two families
mot guilty" said Lamielle and his
case was set for hearing February y;
hew as released upon his own recog-
nizanee.
"There is an ordinance preventing
automobiles from being driven upon
the sidewalk, but that does not mean
that every time motorist> drives a
car over a sidewalk he is violating the
law" said Judge Slater. "And police
officer should never bring his hard
feelings into court, if it's in the
nature of a neighborly row or any
thing like it,"
Lamielle insisted that the oply rea-
son he had driven over the sidewalk
was because Mitchell was blocking the
driveway with another car"

SAYS HUSBAND
"NAGGED" HER
Mrs. Alice Smith Secures
Divorce on ''Nagging
Husband" Claim.
ANOTHER ON CRUELTY

An alleged nagging wife is a COM
mon occurrence in the divorce courts
but nagging husband is more un-
usual.
Monday afternoon in the circuit
court, however, divorce was granted
to Mrs. Alice Smith from Benjamin o.
Smith, formerly of 436 Balm avenue,
the wife alleging that her husbands
continual nagging at her constituted
cruel and inhuman treatment.
In the complaint she alleged that
the husband "nagged at her constant
ly because of money spent for the
household and caused her to account
for every penny allowing no money
either for carfare or lodge dues"
"OnIy $14 for Clothes"
The wife also complained that in
the three years OF their married life
she had spent but $14 for new clothes
and that despite this he had called
her eXtravagant.
The pair were married in Kenosha
June Is, 1921, and had lived here since
that time. The wife alleges that be-
cause of his continual complaints she
was forced to leave the home and had
lived separate from her husband for
several months.
The divorce was granted. There are
no children. No stipulation was hand
ed down by the court regarding ali
mony.
Another Wife Claims Cruelty.
Mrs. Clara Jensen has also been
granted a divorce from Fred Jensen
and was given the homestead and all
furniture as a settlement. She was
also granted the custody of the chill
dren, Edna, Chrystal and Delmar, but
in view of the property settlement no
ralimony was ordered by the court.
In her complaint Mrs. Jensen al
legged cruel and inhuman treatment
maintained that at one time her hus-
band had threatened "to beat her
within an inch of her life" and that
at another time he had become most
angry at her because she resented his
treatment of one of the children.
They were married in Kenosha, May
Goth, 1904, and have lived since then
in this city.
A suit for divorce has also been
filed by Adell Beine against Herbert
j. Beine to be heard by the court
shortly.

Frazier Chicken Farm
is Destroyed by Fire
Lamp Explosion in Incubator Causes
Blaze Which Destroys Farm
Kills Chickens.

A lamp exploding in an incubator
on the Frazier farm, located short
distance out of Kenosha on the Will
mot road, caused a big blaze at mid
night Monday which resulted in the
destruction of all the chicken houses,
the incubator house, and other small
err buildings. The loss was estimated
between $4,000 and $4,000.
Approximately three or four thou
sand chickens were being housed in
the buildings at the time of the fire
and all these were killed.
Due to the severe weather and dis
lance, it would have been futile for
the fire departments to attempt to
reach the scene of the blaze.
The house was saved only after a
hard battle with the flames. The Sc
we're gale which was blowing at the
time, famed the flames and the house
was seriously threatened many times.

WOMEN TO FILE
INCOME RETURNS
Many Women File Income
Reports Says ColIec-
tor Wilkinson.
PAY MILLIONS in TAX

Hundreds of thousands of women
annually file income returns and
pay income tax No official estimate Of
the number of such returns for the
year 1928 can be given, but statistics
of income for the year 1921, the lat
est compilation of such figures show
that for that year the number was ap-
proximately 100000. The tax assessed
on the incomes reported by women
was more than Sill, 100000. Of the
total number of returns filed by wo-
men, $4,000 were by wives who made
separate returns from husbands. The
amount of tax collected from this
source was approximately S43,5o0,00o.
These facts were made public in a
statement issued by A. H. Wilkinson,
federal income collector for the dis
trict of Wisconsin.
More than 100000 women fled re-
turns as heads of families by reason
of the support in one household of one
or more relatives. The exemptions al
lowed the head of a family are So,
500 where the net income was $4,000
or less and $4,000 where the net in
come exceeded $4,000.
Their Tax Was $1O,0OO,0OO.
Tax collections from these women
amounted to approximately 100000
900. In addition there were filed ap-
proximately 100000 returns by single
women, in which term is included
widows, divorces and women living
apart from their husbands. The
amount of tax form this source was
more than $58,0O0,00o
A woman who was widowed during
the year 1923, unless the head of a
fanny or remarked on or before De-
cember 81, 1923, may claim only an
exemption of $1,000.
May Claim Exemption
A wife supporting an invalid hus-
band in a sanitarium is entitled to an
exemption of $4,000 or $4,000, ac-
cording to whether her net income
was $4,000 or less or in excess of
$4,000. The separation is one of neces-
sity, and she is not considered for in
come tax purposes to be Giving apart"
from her husband. If, however, there
is continuous voluntary separation be-
tween husband and wife, each must
take the status of a single person
with respect to the income tax. File
your income tax early" is a slogan
that applies especially to women, who
thus will avoid the congestion occur
ring in collectors Offices during the
closing days of the tax filing period,
which ends at midnight of March Is.

SNOW MAKES A
DANDY COUCH
But Police Interrupt Stun
bers of George Much to
His Own Disgust.
TWO DRUNKS FINED
"Rock-a-bye, baby, dear,
The moon is a cradle,
The white clouds are pillows,
Rock a-bye-by."

This is the tune that apparently
sang itself in the head of George
Ochusetts, wso was found lying in a
snowdrift Monday night at 1920
O'clock by Officer Cunningham. The
man when he was taken into custody
resented having his nap disturbed, for
he found the pillows clean and soft
and the wind weaving its softest sheet
of snow for a blanket over him. He
was all right and the police were all
wrong, from his version, but still the
officer took him into custody and
changed his snow drift bed for one of
iron "downstairs".
Not Drunk But Sleepy.
"You are charged with being drunk
said Judge Slater to George this morn
ing.
mo drunk said George.
'"The police report, your honor" said
Lieut.. Rock, "says that he was picked
up on North Main street very drunk
An interpreter was called to speak
for George
George says he was mo drunk and
the report says very drunk. Now
which is it. no drunk or very
drunk?'' asked the judge.
"He says he was very sleepy and
fell down in the snow to rest" said
the interpreter after listening to a
flood of language from the man.
"Three dollars and costs, said the
Judge. "Tell him not to fall asleep
in the snow again."
Another Picks Out Good Day.
Sam Margeck, 721 Elm street, was
also charged with being intoxicated
He was arrested in. the lap Of the wind
Monday night at nine o'clock.
at was fine day to pick out for
being abroad drunk" said the judge
"Three dollars and costs"
George Ochusetts is known as re-
peater. He was arrested for intox1-
cation also on February 1. II
