Kenosha Bowlers Win.

The Belle City Bowling club, of Ra-
cine, came down Wednesday evening
with blood in their eyes and the deter
mination of winning back lost laurels.
They brought with them few "root-
ers" besides the fifteen men who COM
posed the team. The match took
place at the Maple House Bowling
alley and began about $50. The
Ideals, the home team who played the
Racineites, we've reduced to thirteen
men. They played 20 innings, the
game lasting until about IL o'clock
At the close, in spite of inferior num-
bers, the score stood 944 to Racine and
1905 to Kenosha. The playing was
good on both sides and altogether was
a fine contest. The home boys de-
served the victory, however, for they
earned it with good playing.

PRAISED KENosHA CITIZENS
Capt Andrew Anderson Speaks Well of
Residents of 'Southporth.

Capt. Andrew Anderson Of the scow
Contest has nothing but words of praise
for Capt. Ben Cameron of Kenosha and
his crew, Capt. Hammer and crew of
tug Wau Bun, thecrew of the tug Vera,
and the young men and boys who came
to his aid at KenOsha. He was inter
viewed yesterday and he said:
The life savers did fine work. They
picked us off the wreck and they
worked hard to remove the deckload,
and they extended a helping hand
whenever it was possible. The crews
of the Wau Bun and Vera worked on
the vessel until she was taken into the
harbor. out of reach of any further
danger. | cannot thank them too
much"
1t seemed, he said, as though the
whole town was interested in the work
of getting the unlucky craft into the
harbor. The boys were busy every
where, pulling in planks and piling
them Oh shore, Strengthening up ropes,
and placing her in as good shape as
possible.
He concluded by saying that the
citizens of Kenosna would always have
warm place in his heart, and that he
would never forget their willingness to
aid man in distress.

ACROSS THE STREET.
The Change That Came with Another
Christmas Time.

Christmas Time.
Last Christmas the house across the street
from mine was the brightest and gayest OF
uny in the block. There were beautiful
Christmas wreaths in every window and the
whole house was aglow. The shades were
thrown up high and the soft lace curtains
parted wide. The tree in the great parlor
Of the house across the street was larger and
It had costlicr presents on 1t than any other
tree in the town. And most Of the presents
were for the little girl in the white dress
and the big pink sash who could be seen
from the street dancing around the tree, the
happiest, sweetest little maiden in all the
world and the light and life and joy Of the
house across the street.
This Christmas time all Is dark and silent
and gloomy in the great house across the
street. There are no Christmas wrcaths
in the window, no ray Of light comes from
behind the closely drawn blinds, no childish
voice ID heard within the house. There is
no bright and beautiful tree, but on the
spot on which the tree stood last year there
is something white and as beautiful in its
silk and satin and velvet finish as the skill
and wealth OF man can make il. but the
sight Of It brought q chill to the hearts Of
those who saw il carried into the house on
Christmas eve, and when the eyes Of the
mother and father fell upon 1t their hearts
bled anew.
The passers-by who saw the bands Of
white Huttering from the knob of the door
Of the house across the street went on to
their own humble houses thanking God
that their own little ones were left to them.
no matter how little Of wealth or beauty
there might be in their homes.
The poorest house in which there was the
laugh Of children was SO much less desc
late than the great mansion across the
street in which the child's laugh was for.

CHRISTMAS LONG AGO.
All Presents Had 10 Go Into the
Christmas Stocking.


Christmas Stocking.
Robert j. Burdette in the Ladies'
ITo,ae journal tells in his humorous
way how he remembers the Christmas
Of long ago. "Most of the Christmas
presents in those days were designed
by the manufacturer for the hang
ing stocking. Anything too big to SO
into stocking had to 60 over to some
bcdy's birthday. In any family where
there was more than one child the old
reliable 'Noah's ark was always looked
for. We hailed with ordinations OF
astonished recognition Noah and Mrs.
Noah, Messrs. and Nine. Shem, Ham and
Japhet. There was no way Of telling the
men and women apart. They were ex.
actly alike, but the elephant and giraffe
you could distinguish at glance, on
account Of the spots on the giraffe. So
also the dog and the cow, because the
COW was always white and blue, while
the dog was invariably plain blue.
Within "a hours after the landing on
Ararat the baby would have all the
Faint sucked off Shem, Ham and the
hired man, and the doctor would he
sent for.
"The red monkey climbing red stick
was another regular Christmas visitor.
He was highly esteemed Us a light
luncheon by the baby. Itnever seemed
to affect the infant unpleasantly-to
himself. that is-although the cloudy
symphony of red and blue about his in
nocent mouth was apt to make the be-
holder SILVER. But II made the monkey
look sick. Then there was n man on
the box, with major-general's uniform,
beating drum. You turned crank,
the general lifted his stick high In the
air, and something in the box made
noise as much like drum MS n peal OF
thunder Is like piccolo. These things
as toys were OF no great value, but as
practical and useful object lessons they
were beyond all price. on the minus
side"

"But / have not said anything" the

"No; you have not said anything"
he said, soothingly, his eyes seeming to
her entreat forgiveness. "0nly-pardon

Miss Meredith, would never speak to

OF course, in nine cases out Of ten no

going to the door to look out again.
"Yes; II has stopped. suppose !

The spirit OF frank good-fellowship In
which they had renewed their uncon-

the old hut seemed to have been lost In
It's shadows. In almost sullen silence
they rode along over the rough trail,
