Kadow had his knee burned in the morning yesterday and thought the injury was painful, he paid little attention to it until toward noon the pain became acute and a physician was called. The wound was treated and the workman returned to his work after dinner. In the afternoon, however, the injury grew worse and Kadow went to his home.

MARY KAPIDLANSKY MANITOWOC GIRL IS HARDY HOMESTEADER ON MONTANA TRACT An example of the hardihood of the American girl is furnished by Miss Mary Kapidlansky, a Manitowoc county young lady who is at Taus, her former home, for a visit over the holidays. Though young in years Miss Kapidlansky has assumed all the responsibilities of the real homesteader, a lonely, difficult existence fraught with all the hardships of the early pioneer. The girl was one of the homesteaders who located on the Montana government land and alone and unassisted, is living up to the requirements of the government to obtain permanent possession of her tract of land-160 acres. Miss Kapidlansky will have one more year to remain before she can claim possession and expects to build on the homestead and locate there. She is the daughter of a Taus farmer and is 34 years of age. In talking about her experiences on the farm, Miss Kapidlansky stated that the work was hard for a girl but not much harder than some girls had to do right here at home and after her period of homesteading was over she would have something to show for her endurance. The one thing that was her most severe trial was the loneliness, weeks passing at a stretch without the companionship of another human being.

HELEN KETTLE MARY KETTLE GRIMMS GIRL SHOOTS SISTER THROUGH ARM Little Mary Kettle Has a Close Call When Sister Plays With Revolver Playing with a revolver which had been about the house for some time and which she did not know was loaded, Helen Kettle, 11 year old Grimms girl, shot her sister Mary through the arm when the revolver was exploded. The shot passed through the arm just below the shoulder and inflicted a serious though not fatal wound. Dr. C.E. Cary, who attended the injured girl, said today that unless infection set in, the child would recover and there would be no danger to the arm. The two girls, daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Michael Kettle were at the home alone at the time of the shooting, members of the family having been in attendance at church. Neighbors called a physician and notified the parents. Was Brother's Gun. The revolver was the property of a brother of the two children and had been in the house for some time and the girls found it Sunday morning while playing about. Helen picked the revolver up and in jest pointed it at her sister and in some manner which the girl is unable to explain, it was discharged, the bullet speeding in the direction of her little sister to find lodgment in the arm. The shooting might readily have been a fatal one had the bullet varied its course just a few inches to strike a vital spot in the body of the little victim. The shooting was pure accident, the child not having though the revolver was loaded. Manitowoc Herald News | Monday, June 18, 1928 | Page 1

ERNST KIELHORST Ernst Kieselhorst, one of the rising young farmers of Newton, cracked his whip on our streets one day last week. Manitowoc Lake Shore Times, Tuesday, January 10, 1882 P. 1


OTTO KIELSMEIER OTTO KIELSMEIER MAY NOT SURVIVE INJURIES IS REPORT Newton Man Had Scalp Torn From Head When Coat Caught in Shafting of Corn Shredder Little things in themselves of apparently no importance too often contribute to the fatalities of life. This was illustrated Saturday in the accident which befell Otto Kielsmeier, a prominent farmer and dairyman of the Town of Newton, who, as a result of his injuries is in critical condition and may not survive. Brief mention of the accident was made in Saturday's Herald but it was not thought Mr. Kielsmeier was seriously hurt. The accident, which may claim Mr. Kielsmeier's life was due to the fact that he failed to heed a suggestion to remove his overcoat when he obligingly assisted a neighbor who was having trouble with a gasoline engine used in operating a feed cutting machine. Mr. Kielsmeier's coat was caught in the shafting and he was whirled about the shaft and thrown from the machine when his clothing tore. Mr. Kielsmeier had part of the scalp torn off and was seriously injured, being picked up unconscious in which condition he has remained since, more than forty-eight hours. Physicians say that the injured man has a fighting chance for life, but his injuries are of a nature to cause the gravest concern. Mr. Kielsmeier was on his way to his cheese factory in Newton when he was hailed by Carl Doeschner, a neighbor, and stopped to assist Mr. Doerschner who was unable to fix the gasoline engine he was operating. Mr. Kielsmeier did not shut off the power on his auto, expecting to be absent from the machine but a few minutes at best. He inspected the engine but when Mr. Doerschner suggested that he had best remove his overcoat as the coat might be caught in the belt or shafting, Kielsmeier said it was unnecessary. Scarcely had he uttered the words when Doerschner's fears were realized and Mr. Kielsmeier was whirled about the shaft and thrown to the ground. Aid was summoned and Mr. Kielsmeier was removed to the house where physicians attended him. His arm was badly bruised and the scalp was torn off. That the injured man was not killed is considered a miracle. Though Mr. Kielsmeier's condition showed some improvement this morning, he was still unconscious and it was said that chances for his recovery were not the best, though if he improves today, he may live. Mr. Kielsmeiers son, a boy of ten, was kicked in the face by a horse several weeks ago, the boy's jaw being shattered by the blow. The lad has been taken to Chicago for treatment. Mr. Kielsmeier is a member of the firm of Kielsmeier Brothers, who conduct a confectionary and ice cream parlor in the Schriehart block on Washington Street and another at Clark and Fifteenth Street. The firm also owns a cheese factory and creamery in Newton. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Monday, Nov. 3, 1913

Osesek, 23, Held for Alleged Attempt to Assault Woman in Her Home, Identified by Injury She Inflicted An injury to the finger, caused by the tearing away of a piece of flesh as result of a bite which his intended victim is said to have inflicted, aided the police yesterday in identifying Michael Ossesek, a Seventh ward man, taken into custody upon a charge of attempted assault upon Mrs. Paulina Kilijanski in her home Sunday night.

Mrs. Kilijanski's 12-year-old daughter is said to have identified Ossesek also. According to the story told by the little Kilijansky girl, she, with a companion, met Ossesek on his way to her home and saw him enter the shed leading to the living rooms. Mrs. Kilijanski, who came in to the shed to secure some coal, says she was attacked there. The woman's body is bruised as result of having been thrown on the floor and by her stuggles against her assilant who, frightened by her cries, desisted from the attack and fled. The police say that Ossesek is suspected of an attack upon another Seventh ward woman recently. Ossesek is believed to be demented.

PETER KLEMAN KOSSUTH FARMER HAD HIS DAY IN COURT AS DEFENDANT IN TWO DAMAGE SUITS IN ONE DAY Charles Kleunker, a town of Kossuth farmer, had his day in court yesterday when he was defendant in two actions, both of which were heard during the day. In both suits Kleunker was sued for $100 damages for assault and battery. He won in the first case and escaped with an assessment of $1 damages in the second. The suits grew out of trouble at a dance Feb. 20, said to have arisen over business matters. Herman Lorenz was plaintiff in the first action but a jury refused to recognize this claim for $100 and found for Kleunker; in the second action, Peter Kleman vs. Kleunker, Judge Schmidt found Kleunker "technically" guilty and fixed Kleman's damages at $1. Kleunker set up a defense that Kleman had provoked the slap in the face which he alleged the defendant had administrated to him. Mar. 15, 1916, Manitowoc Daily Herald


ERNEST KLENKE KLENKE PLACE AT COOPERSTOWN IS WIPED OUT BY FIRE BLAZE WHICH STARTS IN GARRET CANNOT BE TROLLED(sic) AND TWO BIG BRICK STRUCTURES RECENTLY ERECTED ARE DESTROYED Starting in the garret a short time after the family went to bed, probably from a defective chimney, the large brick saloon and adjoining dance hall leased by Ernest Klenke at Cooperstown, were completely destroyed by fire last night entailing a loss estimated at from $5,000 to $7,000 with partial insurance. There had been a dance in the hall in the evening which broke up about midnight, though several remained an hour or so longer playing cards. The family had retired and Mr. Klenke was awakened by the smell of smoke and the restlessness of his dog. He roused the household and made an attempt to put out the blaze, but it had secured too big a start and efforts were then directed to saving furniture and household effects. Neighbors Help. Neighbors were early on the scene, Thomas and William DeWane with Charles Wanish and Mr. Klenke removing a few articles before the flames grew so fierce that they had to stand by and see the big buildings burn to the ground. The buildings were located directly across from the new Catholic church recently erected and only a short distance from the Wanish store and saloon, which property was saved only because a light covering of snow on the roofs prevented the shingles from lighting. Burning brands were carried all over the village and several small fires were started but doused before they got a start. Owned by Green Bay Man. The buildings are the property of Lawrence Gotfriedson, who built them partial insurance a few years ago on the site formerly occupied by Albert Ahrens as a store and saloon. [sentence was jumbled, copied exactly as written]. Mr. Klenke had some insurance on his household goods. The new dance hall was a new brick building erected this fall by Gotfriedson who is a Green Bay man, formerly hardware merchant of the village. Mr. Klenke's big mastiff was saved from the burning structure, only to run back into the place and be burned to death. Third Big Fire. The fire is the third disastrous blaze that Cooperstown has experienced in two years, the Catholic church and sisters' living apartments and school have been wiped out, followed by the destruction of a large blacksmith shop all within two years.

In both suits Kleunker was sued for $100 damages for assault and battery. He won in the first case and escaped with an assessment of $1 damages in the second. The suits grew out of trouble at a dance Feb. 20, said to have arisen over business matters. Herman Lorenz was plaintiff in the first action but a jury refused to recognize this claim for $100 and found for Kleunker; in the second action, Peter Kleman vs. Kleunker, Judge Schmidt found Kleunker "technically" guilty and fixed Kleman's damages at $1. Kleunker set up a defense that Kleman had provoked the slap in the face which he alleged the defendant had administrated to him. Mar. 15, 1916, Manitowoc Daily Herald

WILLIAM KOCH TWO RIVERS MAN HURT IN COLLISION MAY NOT SURVIVE WM. KOCH, CIGAR MANUFACTURER, HURT IN COLLISION OF MOTORCYCLE AND TEAM, IN CRITICAL CONDITION LUNG PUNCTURED BY RIB; HORSE KILLED IN MIX-UP BULLETIN As result of reports that Koch had died, reaching the city this morning, Coroner Falge had made plans for calling an inquest and the sheriff was preparing to draw a jury when the report was denied and it was learned that the man was still alive. It is said that Koch was unconscious for some time yesterday and this gave rise to rumors of his death which were published by the Two Rivers Chronicle. Injured in a motorcycle team collision near Two Rivers late Saturday night, William Koch, a well known cigar manufacturer of that city, is near death from internal injuries which he sustained in the accident. Fred Schmidt, a Sheboygan man, owner of the motorcycle, escaped serious injury. Koch occupied the side car of Schmidt’s motorcycle when the two started out for a drive Saturday night and made a run into the country. Just west of the city limits the machine collided head-on with a team driven by Frank Koldorf, a farmer residing a few miles from the city and who was on his way home. The motorcycle struck the team and Koch was thrown from the side car under the feet of the horses and was trampled upon by the frightened animals and badly injured. One of the horses was injured and it was found necessary to kill the animal. When Koch was removed to Two Rivers and his injuries attended it was found that he had sustained the fracture of four ribs and his collar bone was broken and he had suffered internal injuries which physicians said made his recover doubtful. The man was taken to his home and it was reported yesterday that he had died, but this proved untrue, reports from Two Rivers today saying that Koch is still alive, though his condition is extremely critical. The man’s lung has been punctured by one of his ribs. Schmidt, owner of the motorcycle, is a former Sheboygan man who has been employed at Two Rivers for some time past. He claims that the absence of lights on the farmers’ vehicle and the fact that the road is shaded at the point where the accident occurred, made it impossible for him to see the approaching team until too late to avoid the accident. Schmidt was badly shaken up and bruised but escaped serious injury in the accident. Koch is well known in this city and is said to have married a Manitowoc girl from whom he was lately divorced. He is about 32 years of age and had resided at Two Rivers for years. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Wednesday, July 21, 1915, Page 8 ********* INJURED TWO RIVERS MAN, REPORTED DEAD, FUNERAL POSTPONED Two Rivers Chronicle: “The old saying is that ‘when a man’s death is announced and he is not dead, he will live to a ripe old age.’ If this is true, William Koch has a long life coming to him. He was so seriously injured a week ago that it was feared his injuries would prove fatal, but he is slowly recovering. Just as we were going to press last Tuesday, a party came into our office and informed us that Koch had died and we announced it in the paper. The next morning Koch read about the accident in the Chronicle and noticed that his funeral was to take place, but the date was not set. Koch says the funeral has been postponed indefinitely.” Manitowoc Daily Herald, Wednesday, July 28, 1915, Page 4

GUSTAVE KRUEGER NEVER GO THERE AGAIN. Gustave Krueger Pays $37.33 for a Social Time and Is "Sore." Gustave Krueger says he'll never go there again. He has reference to a dance hall at Collins, conducted by Schwanke, and when Gustave speaks thusly, you may put it down, that he is in earnest. He has a manner of speech that impresses one and has a habit of enforceing his views with his "dukes" in a manner that is anything but pleasant. At least this is the conclusion that Mr. Born arrived at and as a consequence he swore out a warrant for Gustave on the charge of assault and battery. He claims tht Gustave tried to take a poke at him at the dance held at that place on the evening of Feb. 4. When the case was called in Municipal court this morning the defendant was present and had a large number of witnesses to disprove the charge, upon which he had been arrested. Testimony in the case occupied nearly the entire forenoon and after the last witness had been sworn Judge Craite told the defendant that he was satisfied that he was guilty and after giving him some sound advice assessed him $5.00 and costs; amounting to $37.33, and if he didn't care to pay the fiddler, he could take a rest for 60 days and be a guest of Sheriff Lehrman. Gustave danced around a little, but came to the conclusion that he was "too thin" and so "coughed up." He realizes the truth of the old saying-"if you dance you must pay the fiddler," and this is what caused him to remark, "I'll never go there again." Feb. 13, 1899, Manitowoc Daily Herald

JOHN KRUEGER Ruinous Rain Storm. Friday night a terrible rain storm visited our city and surrounding county. In the city itself no material damage was done, but from the county several accidents are reported. A horse belonging to Gottlieb Raths, a farmer living near Neshoto, was instantly killed by lightning. The lightning entered the barn through a small hole in the roof, striking one of the two hroses standing together. The horse was insured in one of Mr. Kemper's companies. The barn of John Krueger, being on the Neshoto road, was considerably damaged by the wind. The grainary of Hy. Hoefner, in the town of Liberty, was struck by lightning. The smell of sulphur awoke the owner who found the building on fire; with the aid of his neighbors it was soon extinguished and no further damages done. Several sheep belonging to a farmer in Eaton were sent to the happy hunting grounds by the electric fluid. Other damages by the wind and freaks of lightning are reported from nearly all portions of the county, but nothing reliable can be ascertained as yet. Manitowoc Lake Shore Times, Tuesday, October 11, 1881 P. 1 ******** The other day we accidentally dropped in to see John Krueger, a young farmer who lives on the road to Neshoto. John has a fine farm, containing forty two acres, lives in a neat and commodious brick house, and has a good barn and two large granaries on the farm. He takes especial (sic) pride in his stock of cattle and he certainly need not be ashamed of them. The only thing that was troubling him, was his big toe, which he had nearlty cut off in the norning, while chopping wood. Otherwise, he was well satisfied with the world.

A. KRYZINSKI A. Kryzinski has recently received from the East a large invoice of Wall Paper, and has now on hand as large and as fine a stock as was ever brought to this county.

In addition to his wall paper trade he deals extensively in pictures and picture frames. In fact he makes picture framing a specialty, and keeps on hand the largest stock of moulding to be found in the county.

FRED KUGLER Alleged Hold-Up. Fred Kugler claims to have been robbed of $100 by two footpads out near the Orphan Asylum last night. He had been out collecting from a number of farmers for his work at threshing this fall and succeeded in collecting something over $100. He was returning home about 6:30 last evening when he was stopped by two men. One held the horse and the other stepped to the wagon and demanded Kugler's money. The robber displayed no arms of any kind but the money was handed to him and he and his accomplice walked away. Kugler came home and told some friends of the adventure but at noon to-day no complaint had been made at police headquarters. Nov. 26, 1898, Manitowoc Daily Herald

AUGUST KUHL SENSATIONAL CASE FORERUNNER OF BIG SCANDAL IS REPORT RUMORED THAT ARREST OF JOHN WAGNER MAY INVOLVE OTHERS. LIVERY MAN SAYS HOME WAS BROKEN UP Arrest late last nite of John Wagner, a car repairer employed by the C. & N.W., on a state warrent (sic) charging a statuatory crime, is said to be the forerunner of a scandal that may involve others in prosecutions. Wagner, in municipal court today, pleaded not guilty and secured an adjournment until August 13. He was released under bonds. Complaint in the case is made by Aug. Kuhl, a South Tenth street liveryman, who charges Wagner with having ilicit relations with his wife, who is said to be at Milwaukee now, the Kuhls having separated two weeks ago. Whether Mrs. Kuhl will be brought back and proceedings instituted for prosecution, is said not to have been determined by the authorities. Wagner's arrest followed two days after Kuhl and his son are said to have "beaten up" the defendant. It is reported that Kuhl attacked Wagner on Tenth street and administered a se-sere (sic) beating to him, Kuhl's son having taken a hand in the chastisement of Wagner, it is said. District Attorney Schmitz issued the warrant upon Kuhl's Complaint and appeared for the state today while Wagner is represented by Attorney Isaac Craite. The dates of the alleged offense are late May and up to June 12. Wagner's wife is said to have deserted him a year ago and to have left the city in company with another man for Germany, though no prosecution was ever instituted in the case. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Saturday, July 31, 1915 P.1 ********** SECOND WARRAMT OUT IN KUHL CASE Papers Had Not Been Served Late This Afternoon A second warrant has been prepared in the sensational Kuhl case in which J. Wagner was arrested two weeks ago and is waiting hearing. It was said this afternoon that the warrant had not been served though the complaint and warrant have been prepared. The warrant is said to name a south side married man, the father of a family, who is charged with having been intimate with Mrs. Kuhl. The case has caused a sensation and it was said that a dozen or more prosecution would result. The Wagner case has been adjourned to Sept. 15. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Friday, August 20, 1915 P.1 ********* WAGNER WAIVES EXAMINATION AND IS BOUND OVER TO CIRCUIT COURT-FREED ON BAIL OF $400 After having been postponed three times, the Kuhl case, in which John Wagner is defendant, today went over to circuit court, Wagner waiting examination when the case was called in municipal court. Atty. Isaac Craite, representing the defandant announced this move and the court ordered that Wagner be bound over for trial. Bail was fixed at $400 and was furnished and Wagner was given his release. The case, which was instituted several weeks ago, caused a sensation because of reports that Wagner's arrest would be followed by others and one additional warrant has been served, the case having been adjourned. Owing to the motion made by Dist. Atty. Schmitz at the previous hearing that the public be barred, there was no great rush of spectators today. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Wednesday, September 15, 1915 P.5 ******** WINDY CITY PAPERS HAVE A SENSATION Say Kuhl Case is to Develop Divorce and Damage Suits There is an old saying that you must go away from home to learn the news and if a sensational story carried by a Chicago paper today is true (which it is not) then the truth is demonstrated. The paper touched upon the sensational Kuhl case here and had twenty-four business men of the city named as co-respondents in a divorce action which had been instituted by Kuhl. The paper also said that Kuhl was to start action against the twenty-four for damages for alleged alienation of his wife's affections. No divorce complaint has been filed here and there is probably no more foundation to the balance of the story. At the outside no more than four have been implicated in charges in the Kuhl case, it is said. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Friday, September 17, 1915 P.4 *********** SAYS STEPMOTHER THREATENED HER LIFE IF SHE TOLD IRENE KUHL, WITNESS IN WAGNER CASE GIVES SENSATIONAL TESTIMONY IN TRIAL THIS AFTERNOON That her stepmother had threatened to kill her and bury her body in the cellar if she told her father of visits alleged to have been made by John Wagner to the Kuhl home, was the statement of Miss Irene Kuhl, 17-year-old daughter of August Kuhl, as a witness for the State in the Wagner case this afternoon. The girl told of visits by Wagner to the Kuhl home and of the man secreting himself in the cellar when Kuhl came home to meals. District Attorney Schmitz, who has been ill, was able to be present today and court resumed the criminal calendar. Kuhl, who is the complaining witness in the case, closed his testimony at 3 o'clock. A letter written by Mrs. Kuhl to her husband was offered in evidence but not made public. Judge Kirwan said that the letter was one of the most pathetic he had ever read. The case will occupy all day tomorrow. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Monday, January 17, 1916 P.1 ********* CIRCUIT COURT FACES ANOTHER TIE-UP IN WORK WAGNER JURY STILL OUT AT 3 WHEN SHIMEK CASE IS CLOSED IN COURT. WAGNER ON STAND FOR DEFENSE Circuit court faced the prospect of again being halted in its work this afternoon when, with the Wagner jury still out, the Shimek case neared its close, taking twenty-four men of the panel of thirty-six and making it impossible to proceed with other jury cases. The possibility of a report from the Wagner jury before morning, saves the situation. The Wagner case was given to the jury at 9:30 this morning and at 2:45 there was said to be no prospect of a verdict, and a disagreement was considered probable in the case. Wagner Blames Woman John Wagner, defendant in the case, was the only witness for the defense and on the stand made admission of many of the statements of state witness regarding association with Mrs. Kuhl though he strenuously denied the charge upon which the prosecution hinges, Wagner blamed the Kuhl woman and said that she had sought him out and made love to him. He admitted visits to the Kuhl home as told of by Irene Kuhl, a state witness yesterday, and said that on one occasion Mrs. Kuhl had been at the Wagner home for nearly an entire day with him "talking and playing cards," he said. Case Near close Last Night Testimony in the case closed at 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon and arguments were taken up. District Attorney Schmitz demanded conviction, declaring that on Wagner's own admissions he was guilty. Attoney Craite for Wagner argued that the state had failed to prove a crime and made much of Wagner's appearance and testimony on the stand. The case was given to the jury at 9:30 this morning. The jury was as follows: Louis Schmidt, Herman Zuhrmuehlen, Samuel Hall, Jr., Chas. Sweeting, William Witt, Carl Brick, Frank Gonia, Gunder Gunderson, Herman Dexheimer, O.C. Heidemann, F.W. Kleist and Richard Schroeder. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Tuesday, January 18, 1916 P.1 ************ WAGNER JURY OUT 30 HOURS, AND SENT BACK IN COURT THIS AFTERNOON POR (sic) INSTRUCTIONS ON LAW AND JUDGE KIRWAN TELLS THEM TO RETURN TO JURY ROOM REPORTED JURY STAND 6 AND 6 AT PRESENT Out for thirty hours, the jury in the Wagner case in circuit court, was sent back for further deliberation by Judge Kirwan this afternoon when the jury was called in for report. Chas. Smalley advised the court that the jurous ?????? on the law and Judge Kirwan gave further instructions on law, expecially pertaining to circumstantial evidence which the court said should be then weight and was entitled to consideration. Reports this afternoon are that the jury is evenly divided, six for conviction and six for acquital, though of course, there is no definite information as to this. It is believed that if the jury fails to agree this afternoon the court will not dismiss them before morning at least. When no agreement of the jury had been reached at the adjournment of court yesterday afternoon, Judge Kirwan announced that in event of a verdict before 10 o'clock, he would return to court to receive it. At that hour, however, the jury was as hopelessly divided as at its start, it being reported that on the first ballot the jury stood 8 to 3 for conviction. Locked up for the night the jurors wrestled through the long hours without result, and when Judge Kirwan, upon opening court this morning asked for report as to whether the jury would return a verdict, word came from the jury room that the twelve men were unable to agree. The court, after ascertaining that the jurors were in good health, directed that they continue their deliberations. One juror, Louis Schmitz, of Two Rivers, is reported to have been ill last night but recovered today. There were two couches in the jury room and it is not improbable that Mr. Schmitz was looking to comfort when it became apparent that the jury would not reach a verdict last night. However, pedestrians passing the court house at 3 this morning could hear the jurors arguing and it is said that the sound of fists striking the table could be plainly heard. The jurors were served with meals by Sheriff Engelbrecht at the jail. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Wednesday, January 19, 1916 P.1 ******** WAGNER'S FATE TO BE WITH JURY AS COURT ENDS DAY Testimony Same as Introduced in Former Trial and Sensational in Extreme-Arguments Now Under Way With testimony closed early this afternoon and arguments under way the case of the State vs. John Wagner in its second trial in circuit court, will go to the jury before the court closes its day's work. Attorney's expect a verdict tonight. Testimony in the case was practically the same as presented at the former trial in January and was of senstional character. Contrary to reports no new witnesses were called by the state, August Kuhl, the complaining witness, and his daughter, Irene Kuhl, being the State's chief witness, Wagner, the defendant, was the only witness of the defense. Jurors hearing the case are Richard Bishop, Joseph Bu?hler, Edward Homeck, August Last, John Schneider, Frank Meisnest, Andrew Allen, Joseph Stueber, Julius Jacobs, Louis Spitzen, John Kronfrost, John Reinemann. Five more jurors have been excused by the court and new jurors drawn to take their place, making a total of nine on the list. Excused- Alber Simonis, Ernst Fehrman, Robert Leuth, Edward Goetz, Henry LaFond; drawn-John Hynek, Franklin, Peter Terkleson, Rapids; Peter Cavanaugh, Maple Grove; Albert Stransky, Kossuth. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Thursday, June 8, 1916 P.4 ********** WAGNER GIVEN CHANCE TO ESCAPE PRISON TERM Given Until Tuesday To Pay Fine and Cost To Total of $500 John Wagner, convicted of a statuatory charge in circuit court, will escape a term in the penitentiary if he is able to raise $500 by Tuesday morning. Judge Kirwan, in court this afternoon, imposed a fine of $422.19 and taxable costs of $72.81 and said that he would give Wagner until Monday to meet it. Attorney Craite asked for extension until Tuesday and it was granted. In passing sentence the judge scorned unmercifully Mrs. Kuhl, the woman in the case, declaring that the facts presented to the court showed her to be devoid of character. Wagner during his consideration of the case broke down completely and was in tears. It was said that he will be able to raise the money. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Saturday, June 10, 1916 p.5

A refund of 90 cents was given Henry Menzner who said that he had been assessed on two cows when he only owned one. A petiton of Mrs. J.

JOHN KUNZ WHEELS IN HIS HEAD. Go In Opposite Direction and John Kunz Imagines Someone Wants to Do Him. AND HE IS ADJUDGED INSANE. Brought Here From Town of Kossuth and Is Committed to Northen Hospital by Judge Anderson. John Kunz was brought before Judge Anderson in county court to-day and adjudged insane. He was committed to the Northen hospital at Oshkosh for treatment and Sheriff Lehrman will took (sic) him there this afternoon. Kunz is 85 years of age, and is a well-to-do farmer of the town of Kossuth. He has always been considered a man of strong character and is the last person in the world that one would imagine would "go wrong." Some time ago he began to act strangely and talked incessantly of the probabilities of his death. He labored under the hallucation that someone was trying to poison him and finally accused members of the family of putting poison in his food in order to get him out of the way. He became very emphatic in his statements and absolutely refused to eat or drink anything prepared by members of the family. Every effort was made to persuade him that he way (sic) wrong, but he refused to be convinced. Dr. Luhman, of this city, was called to attend him, and after treating him for some time and all attempts to induce him to accept nourishment having proved futile, the physician gave it as his opinion that the man was demented. Acting upon this suggestion the family applied to Judge Anderson and asked that he be taken care of. Sheriff Lehrman brought him to the city yesterday afternoon and he was examined with the result that he was committed to the hospital for treatment. His family consists of a wife and three children and they are nearly crazed by the sad affair. Feb. 14, 1899, Manitowoc Daily Herald
