1t is said that the ravages of the
squash bug can be checked by keeping
the vines covered with Paris green
and plaster, mixed in the ratio of one
part of Paris green to fifty parts az
plaster. This would be too strong an
application for almost any other vine,
but the vines of the squash do NOT
suffer any i'll effects therefrom.

The Bicycle Path.

The executive committee of the Ke-
nosha County Wheelmen is pushing the
project for bicycle path between Ke-
nosha and Racine. Racine will take
care of their half of the path which
takes them about one mile this side of
the county line. Our people figure on
building a five foot path of bank gravel
with coarse sand on top which will
pack hard and make fine path. They
figure it will cost about 81, 500 and ex-
pect to raise it by subscription. Any
amount is acceptable from 10 cents up
to $1O0. The path when finished will
be the longest bicycle path in this part
of the United States and will be big
ad. for Kenosha and all are expected
TO give something. We will try to
keep the public posted on the progress
OF the path as it is more important
thing than most people think.

Mr.. EditOr:-It is perhaps unwise
and inadvisable to make any allusion
to the concert OF Monday evening that
will in any wise dim the lustre or de-
tract from the sublime perfection and
complete success from a musical
standpoint.
And it is only with view of pre-
venting a repetition of the same of

dition or action that deUracted materi-
ally from the complete and satisfactory
enjoyment of the entranclng numbers
on the part of large number who from
motives Of economy or inability at the
last to secure desirable seat on the
main floor, were constrained TO take a
seat in the gallery
The cause Of this interference and IT.
ritatiOn was small cOterie of Ishmael-
ties that took up their station on the
back seat Of the gallery and evidenced
either their entire lack of breeding,
their ignorance Of the requirements of
an entertainment OF that nature, or
else willful and malicious overriding
of all the amenities of the case, and en-
tirely ignoring the desperate protests
of victim after victim, who turned their
necks around time and again in mute

DODGE GETS IT ON A FOUL.
The Fight Given to Him in the Seventh
Round.

The long prepared for and much
talked of prize fight between " Deacon"
Dodge and Frank Baltes was pulled off
very early Sunday morning in field
just south of Ideal park in the state of
Illinois.
At about 1870 Saturday evening 100
sports or more secured any old kind of
a rig and were off for the scene of bat
tie, which was Il have come off at the
Uihlein stock farm, where Battles, one
of the principals, is an employe. But
Sheriff Abel and Deputy Sheriff Steb-
bins got tip that it was to be pulled
off there and they followed the sports
out there. But the sports ouUwitted
them, and while a crowd entertained
the sheriff and his deputy at the tav
ern, another section of the crowd had
G )ne right along to the south with the
ropes, stakes, etc., and pitched the
ring in an open field. After they had
made all arrangements the crowd was
notified and everybody started for the
field.
Arriving at the field, the referee an
nounced that it would be finish fight,
and after warning the principals in re-
gard to fouls, breakaways, ETC., time
was called with Baltes q hot favorite
among the farmer lads, WHO were bet
ting 5 to Oh the white man. But the
city chaps who we're followers Of the
colored lad took all the bets they could
get at those odds.
The first round was a very tame one,
but the second opened up with Dodge
swinging heavily on the neck and jaw
Of his opponent. Baltes, however, got
in several good body blows on the col
ored man, but at the close of the round
the honors were in favor of Dodge.
The third, fourth and fifth rounds
were gone through with without any
severe damage, with the exception OF a
knockdown in Dodge's favor in the
third round.
The seventh and decisive round
opened up with light sparring on both
sides until Baltes made a terrific drive
at Dodge and sent him to his knees
Evidently Bats thought that he had
his man out, for he went to his corner
and sat down. But the Deacon was
g on to bis job" and was just taking
the allotted time of ten seconds to get
up in. When Dodge was on his hands
and knees and just preparing to arise,
one Of Baltes' seconds yelled to Baltes
to put him out. With that Battles
sprang from his seat and rushed over to
Dodge and struck him as he was get
ting up. Then the howl of foul went
up from the crowd and the referee gave
the decision to Dodge on those grounds.
Both men we're in the pink of cOndi-
ton, but Dodge showed up the better
of the two, and if the fight had lasted q
few more rounds it would have resulted
in a complete knockout for the colored
man. Dodge weighed in at l38 pounds
and Baltes at about l68 pounds.
The purse was for the gate receipts,
which amounted to ABOUT $500.

THEY KNOW.
Opinions of Some Skillful Chicago
Physicians.

FnYS1C1duSs
The new article now being used in
place of coffee has made many friends,
and it may interest these friends and
others to know the opinion of some of
the well-known physicians of Chicago
on the subject. The following are ex-
tracts from few of their letters, now
on file in the Office of the Postum Cereal
Co., Linn, at Battle Creek, Mich:
DR.. g. E. Bass, So Chicago, H.: " l
have tried Postum Food Coffee, and
was we'll enough pleased that | would
like to use more of it. Kindly inform
me where it can be obtained in this To-
caliUy."
DR.. Almond Brooks, q Quincy
street. Chicago, Ill: "The test have
made of Postum Food Coffee makes me
think | can use it in practice as a sub
stitute for coffee, the use of which Z
daily prohibit"
DR.. VIM. Bohart, Emerald Ave. and
43d St., Chicago, H.: Your Postum L
have tried and like it very much.
DR.. Joseph P. Cobb, @ The Clinique"
1856 Indiana Ave, Chicago: g Your
sample of Postum is received and
brewed. 1t is pleasant, and when a
substitute for coffee is desired, will, ]
believe, be of value. "
DR.. Archibald Church, attending
physician to st. Luke's Hospital. Pro-
fessor Of Nervous Diseases, Chicago
Polytechnic & dome for Crippled Chill
dren, Pullman Bldg, Chicago, in let
ter to the Postum Cereal Co., Linn,
Battle Creek, Mich: have made
trial of Postum, and think it will serve
admirably as a substitute Tor coffee for
those who are accustomed to use sugar
in that beverage"
There are many more letters of like
character from prominent physicians in
all parts of America, expressing their
thanks for the help gained and to be
gained by their patients in the use of
the health coffee, " Postum"
There is but one genuine original
Postum Cereal FOOD Coffee, with a
multitude of limitations offered as
"just as good"

A MAGNIFICENT SUCCESS
Remenyi More Than Delights Big Audi
ence Monday Night

Remenyi More Than Delights Big Audi
ence Monday Night
The famous, the only Remenyi, lifted
a large audience into ecstacies at the
Rhode opera house Monday evening.
If any proof was necessary that he is a
marvel with Il violin he furnished it
amply. He gave Kenosha the best
musical performance it has been priv
legged to hear in years. Words seem
too tame for the expression of ones
delight and appreciation Of the masters
power over his instrument.
Remenyi is called eccentric. Per-
haps he is. If so his audience Monday
evening entirely forgave him all Of it
for the delightful strains he was able
to produce. He was not too eccentric
to fail to respond most charmingly to
the encores which were showered upon
him.
Ole Bull used to say that the most
difficult thing to do on a violin was to
hold an unbrOken tone through a dou-
BILE stroke of the bow across a string.
1t was done several times by Remenyi,
when you come to speak of his tech
nique. His imitation of a hOrnpipe
was grand, while in one of the pieces
he played, be initiated a bugle call in
the distance as perfectly as though
you really heard the huntsman's horn.
The support Remenyi had was excel
lent. His pianist, Mr.. Sauvlet, was
somewhat handicapped by his piano,
but he showed himself possessed of a
remarkable execution, and a delightful
sense of delicate harmony.
Miss Brehany, the soloist, did very
well in her program pieces, but sur
passed them in her encores. Within
its range she impressed many with
having a good voice, but some thought
they detected that she rather got out
of it a couple of times.
Taken altogether the concert was
one our citizens will not soon forget.
It was simply exquisite.

But all at once she remembered some
thing, and reused out of her delicious
semi-consciousness and dashed the cup
of nectar from her lips. With rudy
glow fading to deathly paleness and a
strange look in her eyes, in husky tone
she demanded: What does it mean?
Why are you here? Why are you not
searching for her? Where is she?''
"Who?' he demanded, with a wonder
verging alarm.

ing. The one who was to come. Your

The look of admiration in John Beling-
toms eye heightened into something else.
And, whatever the truth which had just
dawned upon him, it stimulated him to
rush forward and seize the trembling
form in his arms and cover the blushing
face with warm kisses.
