George Milward, of Chicago, is the
guest of his brother John.
The Fortnightly Whist club met
with Miss banks Wednesday afternoon.
The prizes were won by Mrs. Fred
Gottfredsen and Mrs. Harry Skinkle.
1t is reported that one of the local
bicycle factories has at last solved the
problem of the wheel without a chain.
and that the chainless model will be
adopted for '98.
Oshkosh is evidently preparing itself
for spasm of righteousness. 1t has
reduced its police force from fifteen to
five men. The character of that city
must have changed very materially
since the days of the Evangelist Will
liams.
A team hitched to a uilk wagon and
standing near the depot took fright at
an incoming train. By mutual under
standing they betook themselves down
York street gully, leaving havoc and
milk cans in their wake. One or two
parties who expected to take the train
just then at the station became so lost
in the excitement that their team went
out without them.
Thomas 81. Irving came near having
bigI fire the first of the week. His
young son and another small boy had
fire in his wagon shed, which was
discovered just in time by Mr.. Larsen,
and extinguished before any harm was
done. Tom says it was miracle his
the shed and could not get out.
The laundry firm of Blisher & Doc
ley, of the American steam laundry,
are going to break their relationship.
Suit has already been begun for the
dissolution of the firm, the affair hav-
ing been precipitated by some trouble
a few weeks since. Henry F. Jordan
has been appointed receiver to take
charge of the assets Of the firm. The
business will be conducted under the
receivership.
The large covered wagon belonging
to the Kupfer Cracker Co. met with an
accident this morning. 1t was quite
heavily loaded above, and while stand
ing in front of the grocery store of
j. r. j. Lewis the rear wheel slipped
into a ditch and the top heavy cover
slipped off. In falling it frightened the
horses, which jumped off, breaking the
spring and ran away with the gear
They ran into a barb wire fence near
the Sterling factory and were stopped
One of them was somewhat cut. The
spring and reach of the wagon were
broken and the top was bruised badly.
The gentleman who does the jug
Cling for Prof. Donohue, is an old Ke-
nosha boy. Now he is most remark
able man in his line OF work. His
operations are witnessed nightly by as
many people as can crowd themselves
into whatever places he may choose for
the performance. He is good travel
ing companion for Prof. Donohue, who
is a remarkable heavy weight litter.
His feat Of the hoist and shift has never
been duplicated. Outside of show
hours there are many people who call
on Prof. Donohue to examine his won
derful muscular development. He is a
man perfectly formed. He is 50 years
old and weighs 2l0 pounds, though
that is almost all snew, and is so pro-
portionately distributed over his frame
that the true weight would not be
easily guessed.
Henry Weismann, the Union Grove
attorney, who was found at the Chica-
90 & Northwestern depot in Racine,
rested easy at the st. Mary's hospital
last night and is more bright and cheer
full today. After being cleaned up he
slept and ate heartily, and last evening
laughed considerably. 1t is believed
that with quiet and proper care he
may recover sufficiently to be taken
to the home of his brother in Brighton.
That his mind is affected there is no
doubt. His hobby appears to be
travel, and tickets found in his satchel
indicate that he must have purchased
tickets to a dozen different cities and
never used them. One of the mysteries
is that he was not robbed in Chicago.
No doubt his personal appearance
saved him, for he certainly had the
appearance of a tramp, when found by
the police.
