DOORS IMPRESSED HER.
Broadway Moved to Wonder by che
Prayer of an italian Girl.

Broadway Moved to Wonder by chs
Prayer of an italian Girl.
The girl looked to be about is years
| Did. She and the elderly man, evident
ty her father, who walked beside her,
were two typical immigrants from
Italy. They had apparently just landed
at the Battery, and were walking up
Broadway, says New York Sun The
man carried a big plaid carpet bag
under each arm, while the girl had an
old-fashioned cloth satchel She wore
no hat, and her coal black hair hung
| in braidS down her back. She was
prettier than the average of her race
She and her father, though finding their
luggage very heavy, kept, looking at the
tall buildings on each side of the way
in open-eyed wonderment. Every once
in while the girl would utter an ex-
clamation to her father, who would
shake his head approvingly.
They were walking on the west side
of Broadway and had got as far as
| Trinity place. The girl looked at the
| tombstones in Trinity churchyard
through the high iron railing for a
moment and then started on again.
She looked at the church as she neared
| it When she got in front of the edi-
| fee, she saw the magnificent brass
| doors. Then it was that she seemed to
think it was the shrine Of saint. She
called to the elderly man, who immedi-
ately removed his hat. The girl dropped
upon her knees and crossed herself.
She began to pray so earnestly that she
did not notice the crowd that was
rapidly forming around her. A big
policeman did though, and he elbowed
his way through. He looked at the girl
and hesitated. Then he braced up and
placed his hand on her shoulder The
girl looked up in surprised, fright
ened way, frs at the big, uniformed
| policeman and then at the crowd. Her
face became very deep red. She hur-
riedly rose to her feet, grasped the
elderly mans hand, and walked quick
ly away through the opening which the
crowd unconsciously made.
"I had to do it." said the policeman
alphabetically to the crowd. eff I didn't
there would be complaint against me
about letting a crowd collect. I felt
sorry for the girl, of course, but it's a
very common thing for Italian immi-
grants to mistake those doors on
! Trinity for the shrine of some great
saint"

Lake THAT Flooded Johnstown.

A forlorn and dreary spot is the site
OF the South Fork dam. 1t was the
bursting of this great dam that flooded
Johnstown in May, 1889, killing about
$500 people This Conemaugh lake, as
it was sometimes called, was fourteen
miles above Johnstown. Upon its
shores stand twenty-five cottages, most
Iy owned by wealthy residents of West
ern Pennsylvania. After the lake had
gone and the water accomplished it's
destructive work the place was de-
serted and has only been visited by
sightseers, eager to gaze upon the trap
that caused a calamity known to the
world.

Joseph Quarles, jr., of milwaukee,

is visiting at E. L. Grants this week.
Miss Erickson, who has just re-
turned from a visit to Norway and
Sweden, entertained a few friends
Tuesday evening at the residence of E.
W. Blinn by relating her experiences
in the land of the midnight sun. She
appeared dressed in the costume of
that country and gave a most interest
ing talk.
The shrewd advertiser will place
his announcement in the EVENING
NEWS and the Telegraph Courier. By
so doing he will reach the reading
classes of Kenosha county from Wilmot
to the lake snore, and from Racine
county to the linlois line. We make a
special low rate where both papers are
used, and we guarantee a service which
no other papers in the county can ap-
proach. tt
Capt. Cameron, Of the life saving
station, complains that some reckless
boys have been shooting the padlocEs
off the post. belonging to the service,
which stands little south of Kemper
Hall. He says that the lock has been
shot off at least four times recently.
1t is a dangerous thing for any one to
be caught at such proceeding, to say
nothing of the possible damage to hui
man life which is apt to result at the
time of a storm in case that post should
be needed. Lots of time might be lost
and human life sacrificed in the case of
of wreck near there because of the
inability of the life savers to get to the
apparatus. Then the fine is a heavy
one for any one caught tampering with
any such thing.

A Big Don't.

Here is a bit of advice that should
be as widely spread as possible. Don't
dodge a bicycle rider. Stand still and
the rider will get along along all right.
If you see a "bike" coming straight
for you, don't dodge. If you do you
will confuse the rider. If you stand
still the rider will give you plenty OF
room; but if you dodge to get out OF
the way, the chances are that there
will be collision. Don't dodge.
