Report of the city engineer:
Honorable MAJOR and Common Council
Of the City Of Kenosha:
GENTLEMEN is a cess pool
on North Water street that needs i'm
mediate attention. On North Water
street at the intersection of Division
street, all the sewage of that district is
dumped through box drain and an
open ditch 1t settles along the low
ground the water soaking through the
ground leaving the solid matter to breed
all manner of disease in that vicinity.
[ would recommend that the two
sewers DE united into 40 inch sewer
and carried east along Division street
to Lake Michigan and that the street
be made passable by filling with sand
taken from the hills on each side each
of which is above grade. There is 1t
20 inch pipe laid from Milwaukee Ave-,
about 200 feet east on Linden street,
that is now in disuse, the water being
intercepted by the catch basin on Mil
waukee avenue. [ would recommend
that the pipe be dug up and the street
graded filling the ditch.
Market street has been put to the
grade set by your honorable body but
Lake street is left in bad condition. |
would recommend that the block on
Lake street north from Market be put
to the same grade.
Respectfully submitted,
j. B. DAVIDSON,
City Engineer.
On motion of Aid. Schend the report
was accepted and the recommendation
ordered carried out.
A communication from Louis M.
Theirs in regard to the defective man
ner in which sewer was laid for him
bv Peter Frekker was read.
On motion of Aid. Schend, the sewer
license of Peter Frekker was ordered
cancelled.
On motion of Aid. Zens, the amount
of $50 was appropriated for the use of
the Fred S. Lowell G.. A. r. Post on
Decoration day.

At the SteepIechase.

She was dainty little damseI, most be-
comingly attired in new spring costume.
He sat two seats away in the grand stand
there was none between-and as he watched
her big blue eyes looking out over the
steeplechase course on Saturday afternoon,
his thoughts went something like this ::
"By Jove, the man that brought her here
has the worst sort of taste to leave her for
a second, even to place bet. 1 wonder if
dare to speak to her. I'd like to explain
about the courses, and the jumps, and the
golf bunkers. I'll bet she thinks the golf
bunkers are the jumps. But no, I'd better
not. Perhaps / can find some fellow who
can introduce us. She's a lady, of course,
any fool could see that. Just look at the
poise of her head. That's the beauty of
the new law. The grand stands are going
to be filled with ladies and gentlemen, in
stead of being numbered up with those off
colored betting females of old times" says
the New York Evening Sun.
They're off," and the struggle for the
second race had begun. She seemed to be
wondering what it was all about. As the
five horses came down to the water Jump
the spectators held their breath. A flash
of color, flight through the air as grace
full as a birds, and two of the horses were
over and skimming along up the sward.
/
of relief arose-all had passed the water
Jump in safety. But no-Oakwood didn't
land just right; and before the cheer has
fairly begun his four feet are waving in the
air, and under him, crushed in the turf,
little figure in green and gold lies mo-
tionless. Some of the spectators shut
their eyes. Those who don't, see the
jockey carried away, his head hanging
limp from his shoulders.
Miss Blue-eyes hasn't fiinched. 'Splen-
did nerve" thought he; ''that's the best of
these highbred girls. Now's my oppor-
his hat, IAN awfully nasty fall that
Jockey got, Miss"
eyes" came the reply in du1cet tones,
"and I hope the little stiff has broke his
neck. Jim had up ten plunks for me on
Oakwood, and he was lead pipe if it
hadn't been for that fool jock
Two minutes later a hopeless looking
young man was leaning against a circular
counter under the grand stand and doing
his best to make the venture of the man
who bought the bar privilege of the meet
ing paying speculation

ALAMEDA.

Sidney G. Herbert, who died on Friday
at the home of his son, Henry V. Herbert,
was an old Californian and prominently
identified with the early history of the
State In 1S49 Mr.. Herbert purchased the
bark Phllena, loaded her with provisions
and ready framed houses, then in demand
on this coast, and set sail from Brooklyn,
NY, July II for California. The Philena
arrived in San Francisco in December,
1s49.
Mr.. Herbert first went to the mines OF
Sonoma County, where he remained about
a year, and thence to Nevada City, where
for many years he was chief deputy for the
County Clerk and served a term as Sur
veyor. He afterward moved to San Fran
cisco and engaged in land transactions.
De Santos Bail Reduced.
Andrew de Santos, who is accused by
Mrs. Petronck of having assaulted her
daughter in September last, secured re-
duction of his bail from $4,000 to $500 yes
terday. De Santos is a respecta BILE looking
old man and claims that the suit is simply
blackmail.
Prosecutions Rare.
Valentine Eggenberger was fined $40
yesterday by the City Recorder for leaving
a horse unhitched in the public street.
Prosecutions for this offense are very rare
in Alameda and this is the first conviction
recorded in long time.

surprised by the entrance of the young
people and more so when one of the party
earnestly solicited the Coroner to suspend
rage Louis Dorneck and Miss Margaret
Gore. The Coroner suggested a more ap-
propriate place, but Mr.. Dorneck explained
that haste was necessary, and accordingly
the Coroner suspended the inquest over
Cox's body and spoke the words that made
the couple one. Miss Annie Dieber was
first maid of honor and Carl Klappich was
best man.
The gruesomeness of the surroundings
did not seem to affect the spirits of the
party, and after the ceremony they left
chatting merrily. After the bridal party
had departed Coroner Pittman resumed
the inquest on Cox's body and the jury
rendered a verdict that he came to his
death by wound infected with pocket
knife in the hands of Ed Higgins, and the
latter washeld for murder in the second
degree.-Florida Times-Union.

You Can Get Ice.
Captain Trench Of the Royal Arthur,
who commanded the force that occupied
the town and who is now in virtue of Rear
Admiral Stephenson's proclamation gov
ernor of the Custom house, from which the
British flag is flying" Such was the i'm
posing announcement from Corinto, Mica
ragua, which was served up on the British
breakfast table yesterday morning. John
Bull CALAMITY endeavored we do not doubt
to live up in Imagination to the tall talk OF
his newspapers and pictured to himself, we
dare say, the most awesome situations with
a gallant navy which knows how to do its
duty confronted by an enemy, small it
may be in numbers. but bloody, bold and
resolute. Does anybody care to know how
far the reality corresponds to these visions ?
If so, we can oblige him; for visitor hap
pened to call at this office yesterday, fresh
from ''the seat of war; This was Lady
Henry Somerset's son, H. S. Somerset, who
has just returned from journey of some
months duration in these Central Ameri-
can States. He has seen a revolution or
two through ridden over much of the
countries, coasted along more of them, and
General Zelaya, and staid for some time at
Corinto itself, which place, indeed, he left
only two months ago, says the Westmins-
ter Gazette.
"And what is it likee' asked our repre-
sentative.
'Oh, not at all pad little place." was
the reply; tits quite civilized; you can
get ice.' Mr.. Somerset's implied formula,
"no ice, no civilization" becomes intelli-
gible when one remembers that the mean
annual temperature of the country is SO
deg. Fahrenheit. eyes, you'd find out the
truth of the ice test pretty soon if you had
ridden with us across Honduras and then
coasted along In an open boat to Corinto.
Not a very nice voyage; but not so bad
perhaps, as the ride across Honduras. Ii
was impossible to camp out; we had to put
up as one of the family in the peasants
hovels-mud cottages mostly, with ten or
eleven of US, men, women and children,
sleeping in a single room, in hammocks,
with no ventilation, and any amount OF
scorpions and things. A little, close and
dirty, you know. But at Corinto we luxu-
rated in hotel--yes, positively, hotel,
kept by an old Italian--a hotel and ice''
.'Then you have quite a friendly feeling
for Corinto. You must be relieved that
the port was not bombarded by our men,
of-war.p
Mr.. Somerset's pleasant smile had begun
to play at 'the port" but the idea OF
s'bom bardment' and "men-of-war' in con-
nection with Corinto was too much for
him altogether. Excuse my laughing
he seemed to say. "Big steamers can
anchor within few hundred yards of the
beach, but hadn't realized that Corinto
was port. There is pier, certainly-it's
about as long as-yes, l should think very
nearly as long as this room. But there is
only one line OF steamers which comes It's
way, and when there is revolution on
the steamer just skips Nicaragua. This
