The Kenosha letter in the Inter Ocean
Of last Sunday contained slight mistake.
It says TUESDAY evening the orchestra of
the Y. M. c. A., or the Sextette Club gave
dance in the rooms of the Business Mems
Club, furnishing their own excellent music.
The dance commenced and ended early in
most sensible fashion, as behooved an affair
for the benefit Of the Y. NJ. c. A." The
dance was not for the benefit of the Y. NJ.
G. A., and had no connection with the AS
ISOLATION.
The last new clothing store that came
to Kenosha stayed but short time and
took away, considerable money There is
one coming now that will stay. Mr.. Silver
man Las leased the north room in the
Grant House building and will put in
stock of clothing, boots, shoes and furnish
ing goods. He has leased the room for
year and his two sons will move here per-
manently. This Mr.. Slovenian is an alto.
gether different man from the other one
and his business will be legitimate and
permanent one.
The citizens of Kenosha did them
selves credit last year by their hospitality
to those who attended the Farmers Insti
tute last year. They will repeat their well
come this year and those who attend will
have nothing to complain of in the way of
entertainment. The prospects are good for
as lurga an tendance as there was last
year, and the arrangements for caring for
the crowd are better than ever. The west
erA train will wait until quarter after
o'clock Friday afternoon for those who
want 20 60 out on the train and do not want
| to miss the afternoon session.
The revival meetings conducted by
Messrs Bliss and Towner at the Congrega-
tional church since last Sunday have been
largely attended and considerable interest
is manifested in the work. Mr.. Bliss is
very pleasing and effective talker and goes
about his work in way that would indicate
that be means to do something. Mr.. Town
er leads the singing with chorus choir.
He and his wife are beautiful singers and it
is to their singing probably as much as any
thing else that the large audiences are due.
The meetings are practically union meet,
ings, members of all the churches taking
part in the work.
The U. w. Banjo and Guitar Club
gave another of their delightful entertain
ments last Friday evening in Kimbalps OPP
era House. Ensemble banjo and guitar
playing has rarely been carried to higher
degree Of precision and beauty than was
shown in this entertainment The large
and cultured audience bravely shivered
through long program drawn out by con-
slant encores to hear the last note. Miss
Booths violin playing was very fine. Her
playing was distinguished by masterful
handling and fine technique. Hernumbers
were certainly strong addition to the pro-
gram Miss Gussman also pleased the au-
dience with her beautiful singing. Every
number except the first and last was en-
cored and the musicians very good natured-
ly responded to all.
The entertainment given last Thursday
evening in the Business Mems Club rooms
was great success. Over a hundred peo-
pie were gathered in the main room when
Mr.. J. L. Stevens, Jr., the regent Of the
| Council, al ose and called for silence. He
then introduced Postmaster Mahoney, who
welcomed the audience in behalf of the
Council in a few apt and we'll chosen words.
Mr.. Stevens then announced that tbs next
order of business was music, cards. dancing
and general good time. The Sextette
Club furnished music for the evening and it
was pronounced elegant by every one. They
far surpassed Freibergs last efforts here
and came close to Johnny Hands orchestra
in the pieces they played. The presence of
big black dog which proceeded to make
the hall ring wit, his howls in helping the
orchestra was Imaginable diversion for
time About eleven o'clock refreshments
