He has been attached to the Chicago law firm for several Hopes held at first that one leg might be saved were of no avail however, as the surgeon found it necessary to remove both. Often Raced Train Brown, it is stated, rather than wait for another train which would make him late at his office of the Chicago law firm of O'Donnell and Toolin with whom he was associat ed, often raced the same train and was usually successful in boardingr it at North Chicago station. This time however, he was forced to pursue the train to Lake Bluff. As the train is due out of Wauke gan at 8:20 and out of Lake Bluff at 8$:30 o'cloek, he made the run between Waukegan and Lake Bluff in about ten minutes. He lost n minute or two in parkng his car at Lake Bluff. ® See Chance For Recovery °* Reports from the hospital this afternoon stated that the young ma n had an even chance for recovery. While his condition is serious,. his constitution is strong and it is be-- lieved that he is rallying from the shock in a manner that will mean his surivival unless some unforeseen condition arises. The vftctim is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Brown, and he resides with his parents and a sister, Mrs. Robert Ridgely, at the home on North Genesee street. His sister was widowed about two years ago when her husband died from in-- juries suffered some months before in a nautomobile accident. Train Is Haited The train which had not had time to gain great momentum was stop-- ped within a few hundred feet. Maurice "'andeville, head of a Chi-- cago brokerage firm, residing on Scranton avenue, in Lake Bluff, as-- sisted by others placed Brown in his automobile and hurried him to the Alice Home hospital where Dr. B?. N. Parmenter of Lake Forest, was called to attend him. Wheels of the train passed over both legs below the knee and he was rolled for sonmte distance along the track. Brushed Off By Girder Brown had gained the Ionwer step on the coach and had his foot on the second step when he was brush-- ed off of the coach by a girder of bridge over a highway located 1 short distance south of the station. The accident occurred -- when Brown swung on the steps of a coach in the train as it was moving out of the station after he had rac-- ed it in his auto from Waukegan to board it. With both legs ampuiated below the knees and in a serious condition from loss of blood and shock of the accident, Clarence Brown, 27 years old, of Waukegan, and an attorney, is lying in the Alice Home hospital in Lake Forest after he was throwu under the wheels of a North West-- ern train at the Lake Bluff station at 8:31 o'clock Wednesday morning.

Nothing further developed that night, but the following night the law offices of the Woodstock attor-- neys were ransacked. Police are in-- vestigating the two incidents in an attempt to connect every -- cireum-- stance involved. Attorney Barnes, who is assist-- ing Special Prosecutor Charles W. Hadley in the liquor proceedings, was aroused shortly before midnight a few nights ago, by a neighbor who had noticed a red lantern hanginzg from the porch of the Barnes resi-- dence. Recalling a similar incident of last fall when a red lantern was hung on the home of Coles Peter-- son, dry worker, which was_ subse-- quently the target of a bomb, the former judge and neighbors extin-- guished the light and lay in wait for the intended visit of the bomb-- ing squad. In the ransacking of the offices of the Woodstock attorneys, no loss was reported to the police but it was believed that forces seeking infor-- mation and vajuable papers were the ln%t'lxnors of the search. Attor-- neys rancls and Cagmack and Judge Smiley are actt¢e in the prose-- cution of the lHquor vidlators in Mc-- enry. Ex--judge Barnes is well known in Waukegan. His wife was a former lo@al® young woman. Mr. Barnes has tried many cases in the local cir-- euit court and at one time was the personal legal advisor of Wilbur Glenn Voliva. Retaliation by forces hard press-- ed in the current McHenry county liquor clean--up is belloved to be the motive for an attempted bomb-- ing of the Woodstock Rome of form-- er County Judge Charles P. Barnes. and the ransacking of the office of Attorneys Smiley, Francis and Car-- mack within the last few days. BLAMES WET VICLATORS Lawyer Well Known in Wau kegan Has Close Escape in McHenry County. From the Gazette May 8. 1869 New--Mighway from Waukegan to Mighland Park We publish below an act passed by the General Assembly, and ap proved by the governor, which is now & law. It is of considerable im-- portance to the people of this city. Lake Forest and Highland Park, as well as all persons living in the vi-- cinity of the proposet road. The bill sufficiently explains itselt to those conversant with the present circuitous route known as the (Green Bay road. he object in view is to make an airline highway between the places above' named. and run-- ning along the eastern side of the raillway track, thus saving consider-- able distance. It will not interfere with the old road of course, which will remain for the accommodation of those living immediately upon it, but will make this city, as well as Lake Forest and Highland Park in-- PROBE EFFORT TO BOMB THE: HOME OF ATTY. BARNES While upon| this subject, it may be interesting to our readers to learn something more of this em-- bryo city which seems to be making rapid strides toward greatness, if indeed the place may not already be ranked among the new cities of the _state. When the railroad was first built through this «county, 'a town was laid out and named Highland Park. A large brick hotel was built and other improvements inaugurat-- _ed, but for some cause, the" place failed to attract attention at that time and lay in a dormant condition until something like eighteen months ago, when the property was purchas-- ed by a number of Chicago gentle-- men . . . who had organized under the name of the Highland Park Land company, and during the winter of 1867--68 entered vigorously upon the work of building a city. . . . By mid-- summer Highlaod Park was quite another place . . . by the close of the season forty first--class resi-- dences had been built and finished, ranging in cost from $2,500 to $3.500. The population of Highland Park is something over five hundred souls at the present time, and it would not be any great stretch of imagination to suppose these figures would be doubled in a year from this, espe. clally when we consider with what enterprise the place has been forc-- ed ahead during the past year. As one of the component parts of Lake county, we are proud of Highland Park. -- HIGHLAND PARK This young city commenced busi-- ness on her own hook, as a city, on Monday last, by the election of the following city officers: Mayor--F.

Progm Elaborate The banquet held in the Masonic More thain 350 members of As-- sociated Bujlders groups in North-- ern lllinois attended the sessions. Fourteen -- associations located in thirteen cities were represepted at the meetings. While naturally Wau-- kegan and Lake county members were the most numerous at the con-- vention Rockford alone sent fifty members ;o the meeting. Kankakee delegates were jthe first to arrive but they were followed in quick or-- der by delegations trom Champaign, Freeport, Elgin, Aurora, Chicago Heights, Dikton and Pontiac. According to Oscar Rosenthal of Chicago, president of the state as-- sociation, who was one of the prin-- cipal speakers at the sessions Wed-- nesday afternoon, the number of plans of buildings now awaiting ap-- proval in Illlinois is four times as great as that of any previous year and he anticipates that the voplum» of building in the state will be the greatest in history. Laud Local Progress. Waukegan also came in for com-- mendation on the progress that it has made during the past several years. While visitors were free in the expression jof the, developm{-m here the thought was given impetus by the words of James G. Welich in an address at he banquet in the even'ng; which was the closing even of the sessions: Construction |in Northern llilinois this year will lestablish retords in the opinion of officials and members of the Associated Builders of Illinois as expresseU at the meeting of <the Northern lllingis: division of that association in ;'\'.'kukegan.

Under their new charter, the city council of Highland Park, on the first of May prohibited the sale of all kinds of spiritous and malt liq-- uors from and after that date. Is this an indicaition that the artesian well 1s about ito strike water? The ruote of the new road will be as follows: -- Starting from Wauke-- gan it will remain as at present to Fellows' crossing, a short distance below, this city, from whish point it will continue, along the east of the track to Highland Park as above in-- dicated, rendering the present cir-- cuitous detour and numerous rail-- way. crossings unnecessary.

Rudoliph, in 1879, went into the sheriff's office as a deputy and he remained there until 1924 when El-- vin Griffin was defeated by Ex--sheriff Ed Abhlstrom., When 'Gheriff Law-- rence Doolittlé was elected he named RudolIph a deputy sheriff but the HMHighland Parker refused to take an active part in the office, holding that it was the duty of a younger man so the "star"' became more or less an honorary matter with him,.

An extensive pro-- gram of entertainment had been ar-- ranged by the committee. Rudoliph has served as constable in that township for 50 years. y "If 1 live through this term it will make 54 years,." he declared today while visiting friends in the county building where he served for many vears.
