Mrs. Gantz also is charged with 9
similar offense, but the preliminary
hearing in her case has not yet been
held, nor has she waived examination

Belden Declines to
Try Momsen Divorce
Circuit Judge at Racine Holds Prop.
erty Involved Is All Located
In Milwaukee.

Judge E. B. Belden yesterday in
Racine circuit court returned the cir
cult court at Milwaukee the divorce
action of Ida G. Momsen VS.. Otto w
Momsen on the ground that the prop
erty involved in the action was located
in that city.
Momsen was in the city seking to
have the case come to a speedy trial

ence with Judge Belden, tne decision
to return the case to Milwaukee was
arrived at.

eye several weeks ago as the result
of an attack in a theatre made by
Momsen on a Milwaukee dancing pro-
fessor who was acting as an escort to
Mrs. Momsen.

Kin Appeal to Blaine
To Investigate Death

Madison, Wis "A. "A petition
signed by 80 relatives in Chicago was
prepared for filing with Governor
Blaine asking for an investigation of
the circumstances surrounding the
death of August Cinceas of Miladore,
Wis. In 1923 Cinceas, then employed
in Chicago, went to Milladore with
$1,000 in his possession. The next
that. his relatives in Chicago heard of
him was that he had been killed by
being kicked by horse. Later when
his body was returned to Chicago it
was found to be headless and efforts
to date to locate the head have been
unavailing. Chicago relatives of
Cineas believe that he was murdered.

Judge Slater on Charge of Bur-
glary in the Night Time.

Frank Wilson will receive his sem
tence from Circuit Judge E. B. Belden
at the March term of court if he de-
sires to wait that long for his plea

HAVE GUN READY
FOR EMERGENCY
Chief Logan Directs Police
Officers to Keep Trig-
ger Finger Ready.
BURGLARS SEASON ON
Many Minor Entries Are Re-
ported but Police Scare
Burglars Away.

Chief of Police Thad w. Logan in
the last police bulletin has called the
attention of the patrolmen and officers
of the department to the fact that the
burglars and pickpockets' open season
is on, and that each man must especl-
ally be on the alert at this time OF
the year, and particularly this year
The indications are that there are
numbers of thieves of every descrip-
ton who are looking for loot and
easy pickings, and the mischief can be
prevented to a great extent at least,
by the wariness of the men who are on
guard night and day to protect the
city.
"Have your guns always ready for
action and always handy" directs the
chief, "you may need them at mo-
ment's notice."
Minor Entries Reported.
On Tuesday night there were sever
al attempts at burglary, but in each
case the burglar was frustrated. Po-
lice officer Lue Behnke reported to
headquarters during the night that
while making his rounds he discovered
an attempt to break into store at
GIG South Sheridan road. The bur-
glar had failed in the attempt, doubt
less becoming alarmed at the approach
of the officer, and had left leaving his
tools behind him.
The "tools" consisted Of two paving
bricks and a fashlight. The articles
were brought down to the police Office.
officer Behnke also found the rear
door open at oil South Sheridan road,
but nothing had been taken at this ad-
dress.
Laundry Safe Open.
Police Officer Paul Callahan while
covering his rounds, found the side
door of the Kenosha Laundry open. He
entered the place and swung his fash
light about, and found no one. The
door of the safe, however, was open.
The policeman summoned Mr.. Wer-
ner, the owner, and the latter came
down but discovered nothing missing.
The laundry doors were then careful
ly relocked and bolted. Again it is
believed that the timely arrival of the
officer prevented burglary.

Frederick Hicks Dies
In Seat at Theatre

Washington, D. &C. "A heart
attack coming at the high point of the
performance by stage magician
caused the sudden death of Fred
erick C. Hicks, alien property custo-
dian. Slumping in his chair at the
Belasco theatre just as the magician
hypnotized a woman and caused her
apparently to float over the stage, Mr..
Hicks died before a physician could
reach him. The custodian, who was
appointed last April, was taken to a
hospital, where his wife and daughter
were summoned from their home. Mr..
Hicks succeeded Thomas W. Miller az
custodian after the latter's resignation.

Washington - Encouraged by
the approval given the income sched-
ules in the tax reduction bill yesterday
by the house, managers of the measure
pressed forward today for favorable
action on many of the less contro-
versial points.
The new income rates, providing
widespread slashes in both normal and
surtax rates, won overwhelming sup
port in the first real test of the nom
partisan bill framed by the ways and
means committee.
Reductions in the normal rates from
to 1870 on the first $4,000 of tax
able income, from to $50 on the next
$4,000, and from to $50 on the re-
mainder Of income were accepted with
out word of dissension.
The new tax schedule, including a
cut in the maximum rates from 40 to
20@o met real opposition, but an amend
ment by Representative Rainey of Illi-
nois, a Democratic member of the COM
mittee, to make the maximum rate 251A
was rejected 1876 to lit after a sharp
debate.
Minority Supports Amendment.
Representative Garrett of Tennessee,
the minority leader, gave his support
to the amendment and a majority of
Democrats and some Republicans sup
ported it.
Interest centered today on the pro-
vision of the bill increasing personal
exemptions from $1,000 to $1,500 for
single persons and from $1,000 to
$500 for married persons, and on
which managers of the bill faced dou-
BILE opposition.
An amendment submitted by Mrs.
Norton, Democrat of New Jersey, the
first legislation offered by any of the
three women members, would increase
these exemptions to $4,000 and $4,000
respectively, while Representative Raj
ney proposed to retain the present ex-
emptions. These, he added, would cut
$23 100000 from the amount Of tax re-
duction provided by the bill and ne
would have it absorbed in reduction Of
| excise levies

Cheese Students
Informed on Statue

Amigo, Wis Il That standar-
ization of milk for making Swiss
cheese is taught at the University of
Wisconsin, but that students are in
formed that the process is unlawful in
Wisconsin was the testimony given by
Professor ]. L. Sammis, head of the
University Dairy department, a wit
ness for the state in the case of the
State VS.. the Langlade county cream
cry company. He said it was possible
to make good Swiss cheese without
it if milk Of certain butter fat was
delivered, which is possible in sum-
mer time, with Holstein cows giving
a large flow of milk, but that excess
sive butter fat causes objectional
gloss in cheese. Professor Sammis
admitted having written an article for
the Hansen Press in which he recon-
mended standardization.

E##Z6TIIS is the type of simple dignifed
fIgE1A9gH house that is always good invest
8.h- ment 1t is attractive without, in
As.A. any sense, being frealdsh and so will
WZZZ4 always appeal to substantial home
lovers.
It was designed especially for a narrow city
lot and may be placed on as small a frontage
as thirty-fve feet. If, however, driveway to
garage is required, forty feet will be necessary.
The simple gabled side with an Offset for the
entrance presents honey and comfortable
appearance. A good choice of brick, the mortar
joint, and the bond pattern is all that is neces-
sary to make this house jewel in the Landscape.
A striking feature of this plan is the break
fast nook which opens into the dining room
with French doors at one end, and into the
kitchen at the other-the most practical and
convenient spot in the house. With the side
board beyond, the table may be set without
step. This arrangement also gives an extra seat
at the end of the table not obtainable in the
usual alcove. Also fine place for the kiddies,
when company is being entertained at the big
table.

|KENOSHA BREAKS
POSTAL RECORD
Postal Receipts at Keno
sha to Pass S25O,OOO
Mark for 1925.
Is CONSTANT GROWTH

Kenosha's continued growth and
prosperity was reflected today in the
statement given out by Postmaster
Charles L. Holderness that the receipts
of the Kenosha post office for the year
1925 would set a new high record for
this city. It was revealed this morning
that the receipts for the year 1925
are now certain to go over the S25O,00O
mark as against $235,444.84 for the
year 1924, which was the high mark
before.
At the end of November the receipts
for the year 1926 totaled $220,555.01;
each month during the present year
there has been an increase over the
same month for the preceding year
and it is anticipated that December
will be no exception. Last year De-
cember's receipts were $29, 822.95 and
using this figure without any increase
as an estimate for December of 1925,
the receipts for the present year would
be comfortably over the $250,O0O
mark.
Of Value to City.
The growth of postal receipts as
revealed in the report should be of
much value to the city of Kenosha
in securing consideration from Con-
gress of the appeal for a new post
office building here. Since 1910 the
receipts have quadrupled according to
the figures made public by postal au-
thorities here today, growing steadily
from $63,855.69 in that year to $780,
900 for 1925.

In order that we might have the
art Of printing several things We're

be found OF making types OF exactly
the same thickness from the bottom
of the letters to the top, because if
they were not exactly the same
height some would print and others
would not when the paper was
pressed down upon the form. %
And there was need of a cheap and
rapid means of accurately reproduc

the printer might have enough Of
each letter which he uses in printing

Only one way has ever been
found for satisfying these three re-
quirements, and that is by casting
