The schooner 7. Y. Avery, on her
voyage to Chicago with bark, became
waterlogged and lay at anchor opposite
this port several hours, waiting for tug
and steam-pump from Chicago. Thu
tug arrived without q steam-pump, and
as the tired crew could hardly keep the
vessel ahoat, the Kenosha Life-Saving
Crew went TO the assistance of the Avery
and accompanied her to Chicago. They
took the life boat with them to be in
readiness to save life, if the necessity
should arise.

Last Friday evening there was a fair
audience at Kimball Opera House to
witness the comic Irish drama of " Daniel
ORourke and the Fairies" Mr.. Daniel
Fitzpatrick, who is always favorite
with Kenosha audiences, assumed the
leading role, and was repeatedly applaud
ed. He was well supported by the
other members Of the company. The
costumes and scenery were fine, and the
music was first-class. Had the evening
not been so excessively warm there
would have been much larger attend
ance.

The I.ottie Mason, with cargo of
| bark on board, came into port with q
| fair wind and continued her course up
| the channel of the harbor, with the fleet
ness of q race horse, but the bridge was
not open, and, to avoid injury to that
structure, the course of the vessel was
changed, and her bow went with great
force against the north abutment Of the
bridge. The bridge received only slight
damage, but the Mason's bow was stove
in, and the injury to the vessel was con.
siderable. The Mason soon commenced
filling with water, and it was found nee
essary to discharge her cargo at the east
end of the bridge. The Lottie Mason
it is understood, will sail to Milwaukee
for repairs.
The bridge tender performs his duty
t with fidelity, and if he had been stand
! ing on the swing when the Lottie Masor
approached, the accident could not have
been avoided. The sharp change of lin,
in the water channel within a short dis
lance of the bridge, affords no opportu
: nifty for vessel masters not acquainted
with the port to notice the location o
5 that structure, until the vessel arrives il
e close propinquity to the same. A re,
Q ball on the upper frame work Of tn
J. bridge would be notice that all naviga
tors understand, as indicating that tn
bridge is closed. 1t is not an expensiv
safeguard, and it is one that should il
!, vite the attention of the city authorize.
