day morning last a fire was discovered
by officer Harkins in the alley in the
rear of Byersdorfer's meat market.
The fire originated in barrel of ashes,
and burning through the slaves COM
municated with box adjacent. With
the assistance of officer Tetard and a |
few pals of water the flames were |
soon extinguished. But for the time |

blaze might have been expected.

On Saturday evening last Miss En-
lille Gavin appeared as Lucretia Bor-
gla in Kimball Hall, and was support
ed by the Forrest Club, of Waukegan. |
Miss Gavin, as we'll as the Forrest |
Club, are quite popular in Kenosha,
and q good house turned out on this
occasion. Miss Gavin sustained her.
self remarkably well, and the Club did
themselves credit. The performance
was in aid of the park improvements,
and was financially quite successful.
Of all the bad habits that mortals will
follow,
There's one in my mind that beats all
of them hollow;
That man cannot utter the common
est phrases
Without adding "damn it" by jove"
or like blazes.'
When racked by headache and colicky
pain,
Take a bottle of Spring Blossom and
from swearing refrain.
While Mr.. Gottbeil Kuhn, teamster
employed by Mr.. Harvey Durkee, was
crossing the railway track at Prairie
avenue on Wednesday morning with q
load of pressed hay the 11.42 express
train ran into him, demolishing the
wagon and badly injuring one of the
horses. Mr.. Kuhn's skull was frac.
tured and he received other injuries,
from the effects Of which he died the
same night. Deceased was man Of
about IS years of age, and it is said he
did not hear or see the train until he
was struck. Our city fathers should
see that the law in regard to running
trains in the city limits is rigidly en-
forced.

During or after the political parade
on Thursday night last some miserable
fellow, or a company Of them, vandal-
lied the flags which decorated the front
OF the Grant House. One hundred dol
lars reward has been offered by the
Garfield and Arthur Club for the arrest
and conviction of the perpetrator of
this villainous act. Whoever it may
have been, whether some fellow in a
drunken frenzy, or some ill-disposed,
eyil-minded miscreant, who had only
mischief and evil intention in his
breast, he ought to be brought to the
punishment he deserves, and it is the
duty of all good citizens to see that
such is accomplished.

which may arise in underwriting ex-
