suited in an overwhelming defeat for
the Waukeganites, the score standing
50 to 2, in favor of .Kenosha All of
which speaks well for the knights of
the willow in this city. 8 Us
Numerous fishing parties to Twin
Lakes and vicinity attest the continued
popularity Of piscatorial sports in this
county. We understand a very large
and juicy specimen of black bass is
found in large numbers at Twin Lakes
every summer. The Cold Spring Club,
thus far, have had great success in
angling in those waters.
The juvenile depravity of the last
generation continues to exist, in the
urchins who insist on making a bath
house Of the harbor piers, irrespective
of the presence Of ladies and gentlemen
who are obliged to pass them to gain
access to lake.
1t is stated by physicians who have
made examinations, that nine-tenths
of the wells in this city are tainted
with organic matter. Another strong
argument for some system of water
works.
WooL.-We notice that but very
small amount of wool is coming to our
market for sale or shipment. We hear
that at the stations on the Western
railroad and at Pleasant Prairie and
other stations Of the st. Paul railroad,
a lively business is being done in the
wool line; large quantities are being
bought and shipped. What is the rea-
son Of this difference? Do the buyers
out there pay more, or what is the rea-
son?
The law of the State of Wisconsin
prohibits the sale of intoxicating drinks
on the Sabbath day, or keeping open
saloons for the sale of it. Last Sunday
afternoon more drunkenness was seen
on the streets than at any time before
in long time. Whose duty is it to
see that the saloons are closed up on
Sunday? Let the city fathers look up
whose duty it is and see that the law is
enforced. Let the city have quiet
day on Sunday, free from drunkenness.
We hear every Sunday morning near
the Church we attend, soon after the
services have commenced the schrilZ
cry "Chicago Times and Tribune"
This loud cry from the Sunday paper
pe0dler is an annoyance to large pro-
portion Of our citizens, and we hope
that it may be dispensed with. People
do not like to be disturbed in their de-
votions on the Sabbath.
