CHARLES ULIG BURGLARY.- The Store of Messrs. Aldrich, Smith & Co., at Two Rivers, was broken open on Tuesday night last and a quantity of Jewelry and about $300 in money taken. Suspicion rests upon a young German who calls himself Charles Ulig. Officers are in pursuit of him. Ulig is about 20 years of age, speaks English tolerably well, is rather good looking, light brown hair, blue eyes, thick set, with full chest. Had on when he left, black frock coat, check pants, and a panama hat. Two hundred dollar reward is offered for the thief and property, or one hundred dollars will be paid for the thief. This is the most extensive theft which has taken place in our county, and it is to be hoped that the guilty party may be detected and treated as the crime deserves.

Gilbert, of this village is on his track, and he may yet be taken and delt with accordingly. Sept. 13, 1855 P. 3, Manitowoc Tribune


AUGUST ULLMANN NOW WANTS TO LEAVE HIM. Gibson Woman Fails to Have Husband Adjudged Insane, Seeks Divorce. Papers in a suit for divorce have been filed by Mrs. August Ullmann the town of Gibson woman who early in the week made application to have her husband examined, alleging that he was insane. Domestic troubles which have disrupted the home, are responsible for the petition for separation which will be heard at the fall term of Circuit Court. After the refusal of Sheriff Pellett to take Ullmann into custody when he visited the farm and found him at work in the field, Mrs. Ullmann again visited the office of Probate court and made a second appeal to Judge Chloupek for the arrest and examination of the man and, failing to secure the order of the court, she immediately drafted the papers in the suit for divorce.

C. UNDERHOLZ Took a Cold Bath. C. Underholz, a Bohemian laborer who works over on the west side took a cold bath in the river yesterday noon. The fact that the plunge was wholly involuntary did not rob it of any of its frigid features. He crossed the river on the ice early in the morning and did not start back until about noon. Meanwhile the tug Arctic had gone up the channel breaking the ice, so that when our friend started across on his return trip there was a stretch of open water in the middle of the river. He did not notice it at all, but calmly walked right in. In falling he was lucky enough to catch hold of a large piece of floating ice and to this he clung until help arrived and he was rescued from his uncomfortable berth.

CHAS. URAYNOK THEY NEVER SPEAK. But No Telling What Will Happen When Uraynok Gets Out of Jail. Ninety-days in the county jail. This was the sentence Judge Craite imposed Chas. Uraynok when he was informed that he couldn't pay a fine of $10 and costs, amounting in all to $48.47. Uraynok was arrested by Deputy Sheriff Meany at Rockland yesterday of a charge of assult and battery, preferred by Frank Shitska. Last Sunday it seems that Uraynok, Shitska and a man named Krause visited Reedsville. While there they thoroughly enjoyed themselves and celebrated Easter in a manner well pleasing to themselves. They indulged freely in the "joyful" and before evening an altercation arose. It is claimed that Uraynok and Krause attacked Shitska and pounded him so unmercifully that even his relatives did'nt (sic) recognize him. He swore out a warrant for both, and Uraynok pleaded guilty in Municipal court yesterday and the result is given above. Krause was discharged as there was no evidence against him.

VALINSKI, MARY THOUGTH THEY WERE MARRIED. A year and a half ago Frank Zivatkowski and Mary Valinski, two Russians, residing in this city, appeared before the county judge and secured a special dispensation to wed. Neither of the parties are very well acquainted with the English language and upon receiving their permit thought they heard the judge say "I pronounce you man and wife." The couple lived together only a short time when they agreed to disagree and much quarreling was the result. The young man also accuses the mother-in-law of having "butted in" and adding to their troubles. She was "wise" to the fact that her daughter was never legally wedded to the young man and the special permit was in her possession. Zivatkowski after being annoyed and nagged until he could stand it no longer, finally decided to call on the judge to determine whether or not his marriage was binding. After the records had been looked up he was informed that he was never legally married to the girl and that there was nothing that bound him to her. When he left the judge's office he was happier than he was the day he secured the special permit and resolved that hereafter he will know whether he is married or not.-Two Rivers Chronicle. Manitowoc Pilot, September 24, 1908 P. 1

VANDREUIL, E.J. PROMINENT BUSINESSMAN LEAVES Yesterday E.J. Vaudreuil and family bade their friends farewell and left for their home in Black River Falls. Both Mr. and Mrs. Vaudreuil were born in this city and have resided here nearly all of their lives. They are highly esteemed by all who know them and their departure is regretted by all. Mr. Vaudreuil was one of the city's most progressive and prosperous businessmen. He began his career singlehanded and by hard and constant work succeeded in establishing one of the leading industries of its kind in the county. Although a young man, he is one of the pioneers in the canning business in the state. He built up a repulation for the product of his plant and it was on this account that a corporation was organized to control the business. About a year ago, he sold out his interests in the canning plant to the Wisconsin Pea Canners Company and immediately purchased a large tract of land near Black River Falls and in company with Chicago parties will build one of the largest and most modern plants for the canning of peas and beans in the country. Mr. Vaudreuil's ability has won success for him in all the business ventures. His many friends and neighbors in this city sincerely hope that his success will continue and that he and his family will be happy and prosperous in their new home.

MYRA VETTER GIRL IS STRUCK AS SHE CROSSED VALDERS STREET Carl R. Berg of Manitowoc Driver of Car in Accident MISJUDGED DISTANCE Reports Indicate Driver Wrecked Car Trying to Save Girl Myra Vetter, 12 year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Louis Vetter, Valders, is in a serious condition at Holy Family hospital with a possible skull fracture and grave internal injuries as a result of being struck by an automobile driven by Carl R. Berg, Manitowoc contractor in the village of Valders at 8:30 am today. It is probable, attending physicians said, that the skull is fractured and there are internal injuries. The girl has been unconscious since the accident it was stated early this afternoon. She is suffering from severe lacerations about the body and her condition is extremely serious. An ex-ray picture taken at the hospital this morning had not been developed up to 2 pm today and a definite statement of the injuries was not available. The car which Mr. Berg was driving, a light truck, was wrecked when it left the road and struck a telephone pole after hitting the Vetter girl. Mr. Berg escaped serious injury. The accident occurred as the little girl crossed Highway 31 after alighting from her father's car. Mr. Vetter had taken his daughter to school. Girl Misjudged. Reports of the accident said that Mr. Berg was driving into Valders and that the little girl emerged from behind her father's car and ran across the road. She apparently had misjudged the distance between the point at which she stood and the Berg car and the speed of the oncoming auto. Mr. Berg tried desperately to avoid hitting the girl, swerving his car so far that it left the road and collided with a telephone pole. The machine was badly damaged. Dr. Rauch of Valders was summoned to the scene of the accident. He directed the removal of the girl to the Holy Family hospital. Dr. J.L. Shaw was called into consultation. Manitowoc Times, Tuesday, October 23, 1928, Page 2 ********** VALDERS GIRL SHOWS SIGNS OF IMPROVING Although attending physicians do not believe she is out of danger as yet, Myra Vetter, Valders girl who was seriously injured when she was struck by an automobile driven by Carl Berg, Manitowoc, Tuesday morning, has shown some improvement at Holy Family hospital. The girl has recovered consciousness at times and during those brief periods has recognized members of her family. Her skull was fractured in the accident.

ANITA VOLAND JUDGE LYNCH AFTER HIM Prisoner Brought Here Today Narrowly Escaped Vengeance of Villagers KIEL POSSE ON HIS TRACK Sheboygan Man Held in $1000 to Answer Charge of Heinous Crime at Kiel-8 Year Old Girl Victim After narrowly escaping the vengeance of a posse of incensed villagers at Kiel who pursued him for miles with intent to mete out justice according to the laws of Judge Lynch, John Spindler, Jr., a Sheboygan man, was brought here Thursday in charge of Deputy Sheriff C. R. Zorn of Schleswig, and arraigned in Municipal Court to answer to the charge of a heinous crime-that of assault, the victim being an eight year old girl. Little Anita Voland, the eight year old daughter of Alfred Voland, a prominent resident of Kiel, is the victim of the crime alleged against Spindler and the condition of the child is precarious. Wednesday afternoon, accompanied by her sister, six years old, the child was returning home on the road between Wilhelm and Kiel when accosted. The older girl was treated in shameful a manner and terribly abused by the assailant, reaching home in a pitiable condition. Physicians attending the child report her injuries are serious. A posse was organized and armed and search immediately instituted for the miscreant, a good description of the assailant having been given by the younger child. Spindler was found in hiding by Deputy Sheriff Zorn, who, recognizing the danger to the prisoner in event of his falling into the hands of the villagers, made his escape and started for the city. Spindler was taken late Wednesday evening and offered no resistance. Spindler is the son of a well-to-do farmer of Sheboygan county near the Manitowoc county line. He is 21 years of age and has heretofore borne a good reputation. The preliminary hearing in the case has been continued until June 26, the prisoner furnishing bonds in the amount of $1000. It is expected that the victim of the assault will then be able to be in court to identify the defendant. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Friday, June 20, 1902, Page 1
