There was pleasure party out at Bristol
one night last week, and as the report had
been made in town that a good time might
be looked for, several young rncn put out in
their best style for the scene of action
Jewett's livery stable was rsnsacked and the
went we'll with oar pleasure seekers, and
their largest expectations were met The
company was excellent, the accommoda-
tions good. and the sojourn at the de.
lightful country town was in every way
gratifying. Vixen the tins came for the
home ride,-we are not Informed as to the
hour,-our friends were unhappily disap-
pointed at finding that the homeward ride
would not be as pleasant ss their ride out.
Some one of the party had resolved on hav-
ing little extra fun at the expense Of the
Kenosha boys. While the company were
engaged in the games of the evening, Mr..
Mischief Maker quietly walked out to
the stable, and took the hsrness,
from one OF the housekeeping
we believe the Bride and ribbone,-and
concealed it. When our friends went to
hitch up, imagine their surprise two horses
with but one complete harness, and thirteen
miles to travel. Nothing daunted, the vic,
/ tins of this practical joke came into town,
and that without Getting with any accident.
What troubles them more than anything else
is to find out who did it,-one of their own
party or a young man from the country"

nation of Routes will in many cases save
much trouble, time and money.
The &C., B. & @. r. r." running from

last two years as The leading Passenger
Route to the west. At Burlington it connects
with the great BurlingtoR Route which runs
direct through Southern Iowa to Nebraska
and Kansas, with close connections to Cali

starting from Kenosha County, on their way
westward, cannot do better than to take the
