-Kenosha is gaining quite reputation
as a resort for prize-fghters, sluggers and
toughs Of every description. The recent
events in so called Sporting circles have
added to the reputation and given the

freedom from interruption that bodies no

following is from the Racine Journal.
! Racine and Kenosha sports have been
little nervous the past twenty-four
hours They feared arrest by the Ken
osha authorities, on charge of particip-
ating or aiding in a prize fight last Sun
day. The matter was brought before the
CITY council and that body made partic-
ular inquiry as to what the district attor-
ney and the police were doing. The dis
trict attorney said that it was the fault Of
the telephone office at Kenosha that he
had called them up previous to the fight
and received no answer. The telephone
folks proved that the summons of the
district attorney had been answered, ana
that one of the telephone employees had
run his head out of the window and yelled
police at the top of his voice, but the cops
had gone home and did not hear the call.
It was said that warrants had been issued
for the arrest of the principals and sixty
others, but this is not true. The fact is
the district attorney and police Of Keno
sha are beng roasted numerically and
feel very sore. They would like to do
something. but cannot and the matter
will beallowed to drop.
