BOY ROBBERS.
Steal School Board Money and SKIP to
Chicago

Frank Metten, son of Adam Metten,
and Fred Wellman, two boys Of about
IA or Is years of age, robbed Superin-
tendent of Schools G.. r. Mcdowell
of about $40 and skipped
to Chicago. just when the act was
committed is not exactly known but it
is believed to have been done sometime
between the hours of IL m. and 2:30 p.
N. of Thursday.
| In all probability the act would not
| have been discovered even now, had it
not been for a telegram received
by Mr.. Mcdowell this morning from d.
Doyle, policeman or detective con-
nected with the Dearborn street police
station in Chicago, saying that the
two boys had been arrested and were
held on charge of robbing his office.
In the Lloyd & Mcdowell office there
is vault which is an extension up OF
the Dan Head & Co. One of the draw
ers in the vault was used by Mr.. Nc
Dowell for any private papers or mon
ey he did not wish to carry about.
This drawer was always locked.
Awhile ago he put a purse in there
containing 800 in gold and 500
in bills. Besides this amount
there was about $40 or $50 of
various denominations. The Metten
boy was about there more or less and
kept the place cleaned out, occasionally
practicing on the typewriter when he
had nothing else to do. In some
unknown way he must have secured
possession of a key which would un-
lock that drawer. Mr.. Mcdowell has
noticed for some time that in some
mysterious way various amounts OF
money had leaked out of there, but he
always felt inclined to charge the miss
ing amounts up to himself, thinking he
must have taken them without making
note Of it. In all probability this
pilfering, for such it appears, might
have been carried on indefinitely and
no one has been mistrusted.
The telegram, as stated, was the
first intimation Mr.. Mcdowell had
that anything had been wrong.
1t is believed that the boys took the
amount and cot to acting suspiciously
in Chicago and some policeman took
them in and worked the "sweat box"
enough to make them squeal."
It is not believed that Mr.. Mcdowell
will prosecute the boys when brought
back.

THE BLooMER GIRLS COMING
Notwithstanding Opposition They Will be
| More Numerous this Year.

Notwithstanding Opposition They Will be
More Numerous this Year.
From present appearances the craze
in bicycles this season will far surpass
the big business done in them last year
and if you haven't wheel the proba-
bilities are that GU will be away be-
hind the times. The sunshine of the
past few days has had the effect of
bringing the bikes out of the storage
rooms, where, at the end of last season
they were gently cleaned, oiled and
put away to await the return of the
balmy air of spring time.
The bloomer girl has not yet made
her appearance, though during the
past few days number Of ladies have
been out on their wheels. In fact al
most every reasonably mild day all
winter Main street has seen them out.
Boomers promise to be more popular
than ever, even in the face of the op-
position which has been hurled at
them by people who think they are
simply horrid. Every person who has
had dealings with Womankind knows
full we'll that it is equal to suicide to
attempt to talk her out of anything up
on which her mind is once set. For
this reason if no other they will in
crease, and even if papa and mamma
do object the objection will be over
ruled.
AS to the number of agents handling
wheels they are springing up all over
town. Walk along the main street Of
Kenosha and in almost every other
window you will see one or more makes
which is, as matter of course, +" al
ways the best and cheapest wheel on
the market" Tt seems to be easy to
secure an agency, and the men who
devote their whole business to the sale
of wheels look upon the intrusion with
no little indignation. While those put
ting in bicycles as side line may have
a perfect right to do so, yet no think
ing man can blame the regular agen-
cies for speaking out plain words
againts the new department introduced
in down town houses. AS to the prices
of wheels they will remain about the
same as last year, especially the higher
grades A number of cheap wheels
are being put upon the market, and
generally speaking the terms of sale
are within the reach of everybody.
The next thing will be a demand
made upon the city for better street
improvements. The probabilities are
that no riding on sidewalks will be
tolerated and if such is the case the
demand will be in the nature of pro-
test from bicyclers to put streets in
such condition that the rider can keep
off the sidewalks. Many streets in
Kenosha are utterly useless when il
comes to riding over them with q
wheel. If not muddy the sand is tC
such depth as TO make pleasure out
of the question. This phase of the
question would fall heavily on the
! alderman who will have more trouble
! by the great number of citizens won
dering why this street or that street
/ isn't put in decent condition.

Western Dramatic Criticism

Charles Frederick Robinson Hayward

drama. But his shortest criticism will
probably outlive any other written by
him. 1t was as follows: George G..
Min, the preacher-actor, played Ham
let at the Academy OF Music last night.
He played 1t till IL o'clock" The only
other criticism that seemed to class
with this emanated from Leadville.
