g+ _ "*@Court Writ Stops Chas. Walker _ _ "* and Edward Sbarboro from e Violating Booze Law. ° Auaitam "riotfters who purd bo at George Wallace, for over a yei@r a resident at 2227 -- Kristian avenue, North Chicago, was shot and killed by x police officer in Pittsburgh, Pa., on the night of Jan. 9 as he was attempt-- Ing to crack the safe in the Pittsburgh , according to word received Chief of Police Frank Tifany in Chicago today. hy . who is said to be the brother of a Mrs. Hanson who for-- merly operated an A and P grocery store 'in North Chicago, was well known in North Chicago while he was employed there up to last spring. He m mt the Kristian avenue address he went east in June of last year. Not being closely acquainted wWith people in North Chicago with the exception pf his sister, he was not heard from until Chief Tiffany receiv-- ed the report of the man's death. The notice accompanied by a death photograph, an insurance identifica~ tion card and some personal mail bearing the North Chicago address, was received today from the superin-- tendent of police in Pittsburgh. The notice stated that Wallace had broken into the postoffice alone and was in 'the act of cracking open the safe when he was discovered by the police officer on duty in the Federal building in Pittsburgh. The officer, it stated, ordered Wallace to halt, but on seeing the officer, he attempted to make good his escape, and was fired upon. He is reported to have died on the way to the hospital without re-- gaining consciousness. _ _ An effort to locate Mrs. Hanson, Wallace's sister, has proved unsuc-- cessful to date. Chief Tiffany found people in Kristian avenue who had known both Wallace and Mrs. Han-- son, but the whereabouts of the wom-- an is not known. Unless she is found, there will be no attempt on the part Oof the police to have.the body remov-- ed from the pauper's grave in Pitts burgh. WEATHER MAN IS RIGHT 85 PERCENT QF THE TIME Physics Department of Uni-- versity of Iilinois Boosts -- & Forecasters. Urbana, II1,, Jan. 17.--The weather man'is right 85 per cent of the time. This information comes from Edward M. Little of the physics department of the University of IIhnnois, who ex-- plained how the United States weath-- er bureau can make weather predic-- tions 36 to 48 hours ahead of time :'t:beeomcg in a large part of the e. Little explained. "This information is telegraphed immediately to the large stations where the forecasts are sent '~"In -- general a southwest . wind means rain or snow, and a porthwest wind : fair 'weather," . Little said. "Storms move across the continent from west to east at about the rate Of an &xpréess train, so if South 'Da kota gets a storm, lilinois usually gets it the day after. % % "Winds always blow in towards a storm from all sides so when a 'storm is approaching, an east wind will blow because all storms come from the west. For these reasons a persons ean predict 6 to 12% hours ahead by simply watching wind directions. "The United States weather bureau stagions all over the country take simultaneous . observations of air pressure and« other data at 8:00 a. m., and also 8:00 p. m. eastern time," TWO FOX LAKE MEN HIT BY PERMANENT aty * H~also provides further that in caso they sabould again violate the law they not only would face for-- taltnres of the bond but also would BULLETIN. .

Smith, in circulit court, obtained permanent injunctions against Charles Walker and Edward Sbarboro, operators of a summer re sort at Fox Lake.

John R. Bracher® veteran 'of the civil war and one of Lakn County's best known men last Saturday celebrated doubly at the home of his son, ,Deputy County Treasurer LeRoy W. Bracher, North Sheridan Road, Waukegan. To be eighty--nine years old is quite unusual, but never to have been sick Born in London, Jan. 17, 1836, Mr. Bracher has never been sick a day in his life, and in his service in the 13th Missouri cavalry during the civil war he escaped being wounded. His three and a half years service in the army before the war was partly responsible for his rapid promotion after he en-- listed at St. Louis, Jan. 8, 1862, and he was madg'a captain. He was mus-- tered out April 14, 1865. During the Mormon upriging he was sent across the plains with govern-- ment troops to quell the uprising. NEWS FROM --LAKE COUNTY PEOPLE IN SUK.TY F--ORIDA After the war bhe located at Cham-- paign, Il1., for a time and then came to Gurnee where he started a general merchandise store in 1874. The same year he was appointed postmaster, holding that position for many years. He was also supervisor .of Warren township in 1888--89. * . Saturday he was guest of honor at a dinner given by his son, and his guests were the members of Wauke-- ean Post, Grand Army of the Repub-- lic. This seems to be a good year to be in Florida, and it is pleasing to know that more and more people are com-- ing to that conclusion every year. Yés-- terday L W. Wakefield and wife of Lynn Haven, called on us and brought their relatives, Judge and Mrs. Per-- sons along them, as well as Mr. Rich-- ards, another man who had driven a car from Illinois. At the same time I had a letter from Gurnee saying that the thermometer stood at 10 degrees below zero, while it was 60 above here. And the only way to apprectiate that is to experience it. $ . | box attached.
