Zion Man Drops
Dead at Wheel
siIas w. Osborn, Aged rs Years. Died
From Heart Trouble at the Wheel
of His Automobile.

A moment after starting his car
preparing to go to family reunion
in Ohio, Silas w. Osborn, aged Zion
resident, died at the wheel Wednes-
day morning apparently from heart
disease.
Mr. Osborn, who was rs years old,
went to the White Front garage early
Wednesday to get the car. He started
the engine, and the machine had just
begun to move when he died. The
car was stopped by truck.
Mr.. Osborn lived at 1918 Elisha
street with daughter, who was to &C
company him on the trip. He would
have been one Of the oldest members
of the family at the reunion, and had
looked forward eagerly to the trip.
Employees in the garage went to him
when his car hit the truck and found
him dead. The body was removed to
the Scripter undertaking establis-
ment at Zion. An inquest was held
Wednesday by Coroner Taylor.

NOW PASSED $4,000
Previous Estimates Placed Ke-

and $4,000.
yonosba keens on growing.

Kenosha keeps on growing.
Information made public by the wa
ter department today indicated that
the city's population increased during
the first six months of 1925 not less
than 1900 and was still increasing
even more rapidly. Estimates based
on authoritative sources gave Keno
sha a population of between $4,000 and
so 900 in 1924. The increase shown
by the water department reports gives
every reason to believe that the pre-
sent population of the city is we'll
over the $4,000 mark.
One of the most reliable lndlces
used to indicate the growth of city
is the increase in the water meters.
The records of the Kenosha water
department show that 219 new water
meters were installed during the
months from January 1st to July st.
Means 1900 More People.
In estimating population from wa
ter meter figures, it has been essab-
lished that there has been an average
Of 5.65 persons added to the popula-
ton Of the normal city by the in
crease Of each water meter. Using this
constant, Kenosha's growth has been
1897 so far this year.
Water department officials stated
that this did not indicate all of the
growth Of the city inasmuch as the
busy season for installing water met
ers is just under way and that three
or four are now being added each day.
It was stated that probably the fig
ures for the entire year would show
a much larger percentage of growth.
The school census has been taken
recently and while the figures for it
are not yet available, it was stated
that there had been an increase OF
school children in practically every
ward in the city. The school census
data will be made publAc within a
few days.

What does a mere man want with

desperate? But there is always the
