BUILDING ON THE SAND.

'Tls well to woo, 'tis we'll to wed,
 For so the world hath done Since myrtles grew, and roses blew,
 And morning brought the sun. But have a care, ye young and fair,
 Be sure you pledge the truth; Be certain that your love will wear
 Beyond the days of youth For if ye give not heart for heart,
 As we'll as habd for hand, You'll find you've played the unwise part, And "built upon the sand" Iris we'll to save, 'tis well to have A g00dly sum of gold, And hold enough of shining stuff
 For charity is cold But lace not all your hope and trust
 In what tbe deep mine brings; We cannot live on yellow dust
 Unmixed with purer things. And he who piles up wealth alone
 Will often have to stand Beside his cofftr chest and own
 "ris built upon the sand" 'Tis good to speak Tn kindly guise
 And sOOthe whe: e'e'r we can; Fair speech should bind the human mind And love link man to man But stop not at the gentle words;
 Let deeds with language dwell; The one who pities starving birds
 Should scatter crumbs as well. i The mercy that Is warm and true
 Must lend 6 helping hand, For thoee who talk. yet fail to do, But "build upon the sand"

W th ladies and gentlemen last Friday even
lug to witness the Commencement Exercises,

graduating class Of 1876, of the Kenosha

Master Ranney delivered the .Vsledictory,
after his grafton.
These essays were all very ine, and where
the merits of each are so evenly balanced by
the others it is difficult task to pretend to
say which is best. Probably no other class
has ever done better in Kenosha. Superin'
tendent Simmons then addressed the au.
dence IN a few interesting remarks. The
President of the School Board spoke some
kind words of encoura cement and advice to
the Graduates, and then presented each one
with Diploma, the highest honor which the
SchOel can confer upon them.
This occasion has tended to increase the
interest in our public schools. and demon
strated how much better it Is to hold this
annual exercise in large hall ard at time
of day whenthe people can get oat without IN
convenience Thus more ofthe patrons see the
good results of our school system, and arc

TIE Park Fence.

Nearly quarter of century ago, an
effort was made by some gentlemen to get
together money enough to build fence
around TIE Park, but that effort failed.
Shortly afterward the ladies took hello of the
mat ter, raised the necessary funds and The
present Park Fence was the result Of their
efforts. This fence is now in avery unstable
condition. Would it not be a good thing to
have a new one during this Centennial year
Inasmuch as the ladies succeeded so well
then, there is no reason, if they take hold OF
the affair and handle it in q proper manner,
why they cannot raise it now, and with as
satisfactory results. We would like to see
the ladies take hold Of it and show the
gentlemen that they can do as much now as
the ladies could 20 years ago.

Last Tuesday evening as Mrs. and Miss Mar

Church corner, but did not imagine he had evil
intentions. The evening being wet and the trees
dripping, Miss NJ. was carrying small umbrella,
little package and her portemonnie in her left
hard As they approached the corner opposite
the Methodist church, the boy suddenly stepped
up and seized the pocket-book; but as the lady
held on. he struck her several blows, and bit her
quite severely. In the struggle the parasoI was
broken and torn, Miss MARITIME watch was injur-
ed so as to stop 1t at $40. time the ladies
got the lad down, and their cries brought a gen
tleman from the church, but the robber managed
to slip away from them and run east on Town
Line street. During the struggle, the little thief
never uttered sound, kept his cap drawn down
over his eyes, and the evening being dark, the
ladies are unable to describe him. The boldness
and apparent generalization of this act, creates
feeliLg of surprise that we have in our midst
lads of such desperate character. 1t stands every
