The examination of Joseph Schan.
ger, on the charge of assault with in
tent to kill. took place on Monday be-
fore Justice Stebbins. SchanZer was
held in $500 bonds for his appearance
at the Circuit Court in November
This is the poorhouse case. The tes-
timony elected at the examination
was very similar to what has already
been published in the TELEGRAPH.
SchanZer's counsel waived any defense
at this stage of the proceedings, pre-
ferring to submit the case upon all the
IactS 10 jury.
On Tuesday Barney O'Hare and
Patrick Burke, of Pleasant Prairie,
while in town, became intoxicated and
drove in a rapid, reckless manner
through Main street, nearly coming in
collision with several teams. They
were only prevented from running
over F. II. Lyman's wagon by the
timely interference of Mr.. Lyman
himself. They were arrested and
fined one dollar and costs by Justice
Stebbins. There is a just complaint
that too many people of the city as
well as country drive too rapidly and
carelessly through the streets. 1t is
time some measures were adopted to
restrain them.
A singular occurrence, resulting
from the Late heavy rains, transpired
the other day in Pleasant Prairie. 1t
seems Mr.. Timothy Kelly, of that
town, had seventeen head of cattle at
pasture in a lot on the river bottom,
some distance from his house. He
was informed by one of his neighbors
that his cattle. were in danger of
drowning. Investigation showed that
the lot had become overlooked and the
cattle were swimming and struggling
about in the water. When the suffer
ing creatures saw Mr.. Kelly they be-
gan believing in a wild manner, as If
calling for help. Mr.. Kelly mounted
his horse and rode into the water, and
had to swim his horse some forty rods
of the distance before he could finally
extricate his cattle from their unfOr-
tunate dilemma.
A very pleasant children's party was
given at the residence of Mr.. Seth Doan
on Thursday evening last, under the
supervision of Miss Louise Bentley, in
honor of Mr.. Doan's granddaughter,
Misses Nellie and Mamie Newbury.
Among the little folks who were pres
ent and enjoyed themselves to the top
of their bent were Misses Gertrude
Newell, Nellie Benedict, Frances
Hayes, Grace Baldwin, Belle Bond, EN-
ma aud Ruth Stebbins, Carrie Petit,
Josie and Winnie MARITIME, Louie Yule,
Dottie Haven, Mamie Frantz, Maggie
Tecktonius, Lulu Marsh, May Belle
Kellogg, of Chicago Mile Simmons
Masters Zalmon Stebbins, jamie and
Johnnie Kehlor, Ned Wolcott, Louie
Read, wainwright Lance, Claytie Sim
mons, Sam Hale, BERTHE Bentley, Harry
Curry, Martie Slosson, Walter Garfield,
of Chicago Amy Tecktonius, Johnnie
Mead, of GAINESVILLE, and Johnnie Bal
LEY.
Six young men from Waukegan
made their appearance in this city on
Monday, apparently indulging in a
sort of spree. They entered the sa-
loon of Jacob Ernst, near the bridge,
and finding no one in charge but a
daughter of Mr.. Ernst, they began
helping themselves to the "wet gro
ceries" they found there, and finally
attacked the money drawer. Alarm
was given by the young girl, and her
father, Mr.. Ernst, entering upon the
scene, was met at the doorway and hit
on the head with beer glass in the
hands of some OF the gang, cutting his
head and injuring him quite severely.
Before assistance arrived five of these
fellows escaped in their buggies, and
probably reached the state line before
they stopped. John Sherry, one of the
| number, was arrested and taken to
Jail, but subsequently was bailed out,
and his trial set for the goth, before
Justice Stebbins. Measures should be
adopted to capture the entire crowd
and all of them get their deserts.
