Go and hear about an unfortunate
Scrap of Paper"
w understand that Mr., j. H. Kim
bnli has decided to lay a cement pave
ment in front of his block on Main street.
Ii would be an excellent thing as the pres
ent pavement is abominably rough and
uneven and is hardly fit for a back Street,
let alone Main street.
Rev. w. L. Bray arraigned the
claims of the Papacy'' in a vigorous and
logical manner last Sunday afternoon.
He will proceed next Sunday afternoon to
show that there are no grounds, either
historical or biblical, for such claims and
that they are unconstitutional. If you
want to hear the Protestant side of this
subject ably presented, go and hear Mr.
Bray next Sunday afternoon at five o'clock.
You are cordially invited to the lawn
social this Thursday evening July a tn
at the residence of Miss Fisk.
Mrs. Sager assisted by the ladies of
the M. E. Church have arranged for
very pleasant time. The Entertainment
will be indoors if an infavorable evening
prevents the use Of the lawn. A fine mu-
steal programme has been prepared con-
sisting of both vocal and instrumental
music, which will be given during the
evening
The ladies of the local w. G. t. y.
decided at their last meeting to raise mon
ey to buy seats for Central Park if per-
mission and protection can be obtained

Mrs A. L. Simmons. The officers elected

dents, Mesdames Campbell and Cadman;

-MyM. Won't that Main street look
sick when the new pavements are all
down. The property owners on MAN
street have enterprise enough to lay line
cement pavements in front of their own
property and would doubtless go in
strong for paving the street If that abom-
Unable sewer was replaced. 1t all rests
on the Mayor and the City Council to do
something about the sewer. Get COM
petent engineer to lay out sytem of sew
ers for the city and then 60 ahead and
put in the sewer on Main steeet in accord
ance with the plan. Then the property
owners will be ready to pay for macada-
MIXING Main street The way is open be-
fore the Council to do this. Not only
should Main street be macadamized, but
all the streets in the city. 1t don't cost
such an enormous sum. The writer was
in his old home, Ottawa, Ohio, short
time AGO and could not avoid comparing
that place with KenOSha. Ottawa is d
place of about 1900 people and is not
considered specially wide-awake place,
but every street i'll the corporation has its
sewer and is macadamized. 1t has
town hall in which are the Council room,
MAYORS office Hook & Ladder wagon
room. the fire engine, chemical engine,
and the two horses that stand
ready for the alarm at any
time. The place pays its principal of
schools 81 300 and graduates ten and If
teen every year from it's High School.
The town is lighted with electricity, fur
nished by 65 lights in different parts OF
town and the plant is owned by local
capital Kenosha is a good way behind
such village. But then Ottawa has no
debt and but few old fogies.
The young people of st. Matthews
church will put "A Scrap OF Paper on
the boards of Kimball Opera House next
Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, July
Doth and Both.
Poor old Kenosha Poor old Queen
of the sand dunes just over the cline J.
She has filled herself with prunes and
warm water for several years passed, and
swelled up until she just thought she
was ''shust only a leedle mighd kleiner
by Milwaukee," and now her census man
has timorously approached her beer keg
throne and told her she was only 1856
people big. And oh!.! how bad she feels.
And the editors up there are just consol-
ing her as best they can, and insisting
that she is bigger, and nicer, and prettier
than any other town in the U. s., so she
is; and entitled to number among her
subjects all the people of Brassville, just
out of the city limits, ETC., etc, etc
