Foreman Tulley is the only mason at
| present at work on the building being
put up by Aliens Sons on which the
bricklayers and stone masons struck
Tuesday morning. AS far as is known
nothing was done today toward final
settlement. Business is tied up, and if
possible the union expect to keep it so
until they are able to get the scale of
wages demanded by them. There was
some talk of letting the job out by con-
tract but nothing definite was done.
The young people of the different
churches of the city have a plan on
foot to organize into a Union. Some
thing permanent. The idea being to
rally the christian influence and en-
thusiasm of the young people several
times a year, and endeavor by Christ's
help to build up a higher standard of
spiritual life among themselves, and
throughout the city. The first meet
ing will be held at the Congregational
church June 20, one week from next
Sunday at o'clock. A good time is
anticipated. Everyone, interested or
not, are invited.
The Eastern Stars held their regular

trict Attorney Buckmaster, Mr.. Ma
lone, Bert Robbins, Attorney 81. j.
Hastings, S. D. Slade, Assemblyman
Reynolds and others. Among those
present from out of town were Mr.. and
Mrs. John F. Reynolds and Mr.. and
Mrs. S. d. Slade, of Genoa Junction,
and Mr.. and Mrs. Wilson, of Union
Grove.
A most reprehensible misdemeanor
which begun on Memorial day has con-
tinued up to the present and bids fair
to go on unless some interference is
made. 1t consists of desecating the
graves of the dead by rifing them of
flowers laid there by the hands of
relatives and friends. On Memorial
day many graves of those who were
not soldiers as we'll as those who fought |
were robbed of their decorations by the |
rowdy element to whom that day is
only festivity. Since then it seems |
to have been a regular occurrence.
There is no discrimination on the part |
of the contemplate ones who rob the |
dead for rich and poor alike complain
of the meanness. Such action is Gull
pable in the extreme and it's perpetra
tors should be dealt with most severely
if they can be apprehended.
The first meeting of the Epworth
League union was held at Pleasant |
Prairie Sunday evening. Certainly it
will be meeting long to be remem-
bered by all who attended. The words
from Miss Eckert, and Messrs. Frost,
st. John and Fair, from Evanston,
and W. W. Cooper, from Kenosha,
added great interest to the meeting.
A collection of $15 was taken at the
close of the meeting for the education
of a foreign missionary. The following
officers were elected: President, Chas.
F. Beachel of Kenosha; vice president,
John Pedley, of Pleasant Prairie; sec
rotary and treasurer, Miss Bullamore,
of Spring Bluff. Plans are already on
foot for the next meeting, which will
be held at Somers, July IL. The
young people are in earnest. and the
Lord has promised to meet with them
with mower. and there is no doubt but |
