MORE sTonata.
Thursday evening was disastrous one 10 ycs-
sel-owners. During the past season tue rates Of
freight hare been so 1ow tha: many Of the finest
schooaera on tho lalo, owned hero. have been
mooled in the river patiently waiting for paying
traf1ic, and our immunity from heavy wind
storms from the east since last soring occasioned
considerable neglect "a to tue proper protection
Of The shipping property, IN case OF such = storm
as that of Inst night. Almost every craft in tho
harbor broke from the moor4ngs, aud all we're
driving madly to and fro in strange confusion.
Many lost spnrs md rigging. while 9th
ers suffered more seriously lu having thor
ribs jamued aud stove in. The ]. I. Case, one
Of the largest aud most beautiful vessels on tie
lake, broke loose, aud pounded against the tau
nory building OF J. 4. Sherman l. Co., dong lit
tie damage to tde magnificent schooner. but al
most entirely demolishing the building.
Masters and sailors we're early at WORE trying
to bring order out Of chaos, but little could bo
accomplished until the storm had subsidized.
SOCIAL ENTERTAINMENTS
during the past week have been rather dull.
The party OF Hiss Lille Bull, on the evening OF
Sept. 8. was very pleasant affair.
The lawu-party OF Iii. and Mrs. " T. Lewis
On Thursdsy evening Was changed to ,parlor
rccreatons. The weather during the night was
simply horrible, bat. ID spite OF the !" "frowns Of
Providence" the entertainment Was one OF the
most enjoyable Of the season. The piano muslo
OF the lf.sses Sharmen and DooIittle was de-
lightlul exhibition Of cultivated taste. The
charades we're amusing and entertaining in the
extreme aud the chagrio OF the kenosha gentle
man At the way the class Of which he WAS 1nen-
Der was bafned, was ludlcrous. Their most com
pIicased words we're solved by the intellectual
lights +" of the north parlor with the utmost
ease and abandon, and when, With the aid OF
Wobstcr's Unabridged and copy OF Dicks Phi
losophy, = whole sentence was constructed by
Afr. Frank MITCHELL acted horribly By the GLASS;
and interpreted bY Miss Kttie Duncombe and
Miss Stella Blake nstantaueousiy, the unfortu-
nate members of the unfortunate class gave it
up in despair.
The refreshments wero q marked feature Of
the evening, but simply characterstic Of every
thing attempted BY the am1able hoateas. The
only regret OF the evening Was the farewell
which had to be spoken to the Misses Sherman
and Yule, who left next day for their respective
homes in Milwaukee and Kenosha, and whose
visit here has been pleasure to their many
friends.
