Mike Tells the World
That He's a Wrestler

Mike Gitson, Market and Rowland,
one of Kenosha's up-and-coming ex-
ponents of the wrestling art, was ready
to tell the world that he was able to
shake no mean hip on the padded
mat. At the Sells-Floto circus on Sat-
urday Mike took the challenge of the
wrestler that travelled with the circus
and offered $500 minute to anyone
who would stay with him. Mike took
the offer seriously and pinned his man
in a fashion that made the circus
wrestler look as though he was in the
wrong pew. Mike admitted when he
got through with his match and had
enthusiastically pocketed the challenge
money that he believed the circus fell
low-who claimed several champion
ships under his belt was an easy mark
when it came to match with his ability.

Frank Davis, Waiting for
U. S. Marshall, is Pop
uIar with Police.
WANTED EVERYWHERE
Kenosha Police Get List of
Davis Previous Escapades
and Places Wanted.

Frank Davis, alias Mickey, and
alias Red Birdsear is losing some Of
his smoothness and sickness in the
city lookup as he has not seen a bar
Der since Lieut.. Rock and Detective
Chase arrested him Thursday after
noon.
The United States Marshall who is
expected to come and relieve the city
of the prosecution Of Davis, has not
yet arrived, but the prisoner accepts
his detention with a philosophy which
suggests that he takes the i'll with
the we'll along his adventurous and
shady path.
This morning the police Office here
received from the Hammond, Ind, po-
lice the history of Davis previous es-
capades in crime so far as they are
known to that department.
Through the Hammond police it was
learned that Davis has already served
term in the state prison of Okla
homa. He has been arrested many
times on charges in other states, but
somehow or other appears to have
managed to slip through police and
prison hands.
Here is the list of Davis arrests be-
fore as given by Hammond: 1. Ar
rested at Memphis, Tenn, October %,
1922, for violation of the liquor law.
No disposition of case. 2. Arrested
at Oklahoma City, Okla, November 2,
1920, for forgery. Sentenced to state
prison for one year and one day. g..
Arrested at Galveston, Texas, january
10, 1922, for passing worthless checks;
case dismissed. 4. Arrested at Ham,
mond, Ind, June IS, 1928, for forgery.
Turned over to Indianapolis police;
no disposition of case.
Davis is wanted at Hammond, Ind,
for soliciting advertising for the Wal
ter L. Main Shows; wanted at Milwau-
kee by the Republican hotel; wanted
at Detroit; wanted at Detroit under
name of "Red" Birdsear by the Over
land Motor company; wanted at Mich
igan City, Ind, by the PRINCE Motor
company and by the Wolverine Ho-
tel; wanted at Grand Rapids, Mich,
by the Overland company.
Ordered Large Commissions.
One Of Davis tricks in the past, it
Is al1eReuJ mas UeeH pOSlHS as cum
missary agent for the circus he elect
ed at the time to represent; at one
time he ordered $4,000 buns, and Sc
cured a deposit of commission for the
order At other places he ordered a
great number of hams, cheeses, bread
and so forth, collecting from the pro-
Queer the money for commission.
The arrest of Davis is believed to
have put to stop for some time such
operations.

COULDN'T LEARN
INDIANS SECRET
Waukegan Life Guard Fail
ed to See How John Jer-
envy Recovered Bodies.
SEE THRU SPYGLASS

Despite the fact that he watched
through a spyglass while John Jeremy,
Indian, noted for his uncanny ability
to recover drowned bodies, located a
body in Lake Marie near Antioch,
Felix Druba, life saver at that lake
cannot understand the Indians cum
ming. Because of the fact that Jeremy
has recovered several bodies in the
Fox River near Kenosha, many persons
here will be interested in the follow
ing account of how Druba was baffled
in his attempts to find the Indians
secret, which article appeared in a
Waukegan paper:
What uncanny methods an Indian
diver may employ to bring a body
from the bottom of lake are puz-
cling Felix Druba, chief life guard Of
the harbor bathing beach.
Druba is still busy trying to figure
out the way John Jeremy Of Still
water, Mimi, brought the body of
Geo. Anderson from Lake Marie.
The whole business was shrouded in
mystery. The Indian came down from
Minnesota, and Immediately set cut on
the lake. He explored the water and
dropped out four bits of something,
possibly wood. Then he returned to the
shore and did not go out on the waters
until afternoon. When he came in he
had the body, and had not left the
boat.
The term "diver" that was applied to
the Indian, is incorrect. He did not go
under the water once.
Watched Through Spyglass.
The Indian would not permit anyone
to go out on the lake with him. He de-
manded that no one watch him from
the shore. Druba, concealed 100 yards
from Jeremy, watched the Indian
through field glasses.
And, to pick up Druba's story, this
is what happened:
II could see him plainly, could see
string move at that distance. He
set out four little pieces of wood, like
decoys. Probably one was alive, or the
one over the body. tradition he toy
ed with strings, but really did nothing
with them. 1t was probably false move
meDts like magician to fool anyone
who might be watching.
"Then he came to shore and talked
to the people. He told how hard it
was to recover bodies, and what q
strain it was on him. He told Of
failures and weed traps in lakes.
Suggest Possible Solution.
'In the afternoon he set out again,
wearing his cid overalls, hickory shirt
and SLOUGH hat. He simply rowed out
to the point where he had been in the
morning and came back dragging the
body.
"But the funny part was that he
would let no one get near the body.
He permitted the undertaken to do
the work, but assisted him.
"Could he have used little chemical
tablets, that work on the body to make
it rise to the surface? Why wouldn't
he let me see the body after it had
been brought up? How could he locate
the spot where Anderson was without
dragging or diving, unless he used
some chemical preparation?
There is one thing certain. I am
going to keep after this thing until
l solve it," concluded Druba.

WOULD PREVENT
SPREAD OF PEST
Department of Agriculture
Warns State Visitors
of Dangers.
POST LARGE SIGNS

Madison.-- Prevention of the
spread of insect pests and plant dis
eases by tourists who transport trees
and plants from Wisconsin's resorts
to their homes, is being attempted
by the Wisconsin department of agri-
culture, J. D. Jones, Jr., commission
er, announced today.
Large signs warning tourists that
the transportation of vegetation is
prohibited by law, unless such vege-
tation is first properly inspected,
have been placed throughout the big
woods fishing country of northern
Wisconsin, and on the principal high
ways.
"The signs are for the purpose of
warning tourists of the danger of
carrying pests and plant diseases in
connection with uninspected plant
material" the announcement said.
"Some of those most likely to be
brought into Illinois and other CEN
trail states are the white pine blister
rust, the spruce budworm and jack
pine tussock moth"
The white pine blister rust is a
fatal disease of white pine and other
closely related trees, which was acct
dentally introduced into northwest
ern Wisconsin from Germany a dozen
years ago. 1t is not known anywhere
in the central part of the United
States except in certain sections of
Wisconsin, Minnesota and one or two
points in Michigan and if it were I'M
Intentionally carried by tourists into
the districts of ornamental paintings.
and high grade nurseries along Chi
cago's north shore and in other parts
of Illinois the damage would be very
great.
Jack Pine Tussock.
The jack pine tussock moth is a
relative of the gypsy moth and is a
native in northwestern Wisconsin. In
it's present location it has attacked
only jack pine but what other trees
it might find desirable if carried into
new localities is unknown.
The spruce budworm, which is also
found in this region, is one of the
most injurious pests of evergreens
found on the American continent.
Tourists who wish to take trees
from GnelE OWN nOlulHBS VI IHOSS Ol
their friends for careful transplant
ing to other localities are instructed
to wrap them for shipment and send
them by express prepaid to the state
entomologist where they will be in
spected without charge, and will be
transmitted express collect to any
destination named if they are found
free from insect pests and plant dis
cases." the announcement said. "On
account Of the blister rust, however
white pines cannot be certified in this
way and any trees of this species
found in bundles for inspection will
be destroyed"
Tourists are also warned to secure
the permission of owners before any
trees are dug. According to the
state highway commission, visitors
enter this region on the average of
about seven thousand cars a day dur
ing the summer season and indis-
criminate digging Of trees and shrubs
from private and public lands is a
highly destructive form of vandalism
