Pony and Dog Show Draws Larry
Crowds.

Pony and Dog Show Draws LARGE
Crowds.
The pony and dog show of the Norris
Brothers. which is located at the corner of
14th and V streets, seems to improve upon
acquaintance. The audience that was pres
ent at the performance last night was fully
as large as that of Monday night, and
every perform ance given here this week
by this organization has been patronize,l
IN the same generous manner. The Norris
Brothers show is really a pony and dog
circus with few monkeys and goats
thrown In for the clowns and as extra
special features. The performance-eiven
last night was only one of the regular an
pearances of the animals but it was full
OF good points and taking features. The
show Is really a circus on a small scale.
put there is no such thing as banking heay-
ly on one or two turns to draw attention
ana then filling in the rest of the show
with very mediocre turns, to ray the least.
All of the feats performed by the animals
are worthy Of the closest attention, and the
way the pretty, housekeeping, graceful
ponies and their. close friends and com-
panions, the dogs, were applauded last
night showed that the large audience was
Iully coSnizant of the labor and patien.e
required to bring the performers up to
the high state of docility and intelligence

James Shorts, COlOred, Held for Ac-
ton of Grand Jury.
On a charge of housebreaking in the
night, James Shorts, colcred man, thir-
ty-two years of age, was committed to jail
this afternoon by Judge Kimball in the Po-
lice court, in default of $500 bonds, to await
the action of the grand jury.
The crime occurred about II o'clock We'd
nesday night, at the residence of Mr.. Enoch
S. Harvey, 1853 Florida avenue. About the
hour mentioned Mr.. Wendelin Busch whose
home is at Mr.. Harvey's residence, heard
some one moving about the house. Mr..
Busch called Harvey" but the only re-
Spouse was the opening of a water attach
ment III the bath room. Shortly thereafter
some one was heard in other rooms. Mr.
Busch arose to investigate. and a colored
man fed. Mr. Busch discharged three
shots from revolver at the retreating
burglar.
the reports of the pistol attracted Po-
liceman Matthews and awakened Mr.. Har-
Vey. search showed that the burglar
mad ransacked the bureau and apartments
occupied by MI. and Mrs. Harvey, and had
removed sum of money and other articles
from suit of clothing that had been worn
during the day by Mr.. Harvey. Several
articles of clothing belonging to MIR. Har-
Vey were found in the rear yard, as were
pair of dilapidated shoes and an old hat.
Mr.. Busch identified the old shoes as hav-
ing been worn by colored man named
James Shorts, who had worked at the house
the day before. Acting on that informa-
ton, Policeman Matthews last evening ar
rested Shorts at his home on 18th street
between Erie and Huron streets.
In court this afternoon a colored man
named William Broadus, who lives al the
'arie house as did the prisoner, testified
tnat Shorts returned home Wednesday
night shortly before midnight. He was
shoeless and hatless. Broadus also identi-
fled the shoes the property of Shorts.

Kenosha business men are beginning
to complain because the council will
not allow the new electric road to pass
into the city. They claim that the
business interests are suffering. They
don't seem to care whether it goes any
farther than the river, but they be-
lieve the council should under certain
restrictions allow the line to come up
that far. One of the business men in
question says:
81 know of farmers who get on the
cars within two miles of Kenosha and
who go to Racine and trade for no
other reason than that they can get off
any where in the city, while if they
come to Kenosha they must walk from
the Sanitarium in, or pay to ride in the
hack. Racine News.
