DAVE COMES HOME.
GUNNER OF THE MASSACHUSETTS
VISITS HIS PARENTS.
HE BRINGS VALUABLE RELICS
Part of Cerveras Tableware Is Among
the Trophies of the Kenosha
Bcy.-Many Stories of the
Conflict.

Dave Theleen, bronzed by the burn
ing sun of Cuba and Porto Rico, ar
rived home Saturday night and is now
spending a two weeks furlough with
his parents on Jenne street.
Dave is perhaps the best known of
any of the Kenosha sailors or soldiers,
who took part in the late war with
Spain and his return home unscathed
will be hailed with delight by many
citizens. During the past few months
the NEWS has published many letters
from cadet Theleen, and the people
who have read them know that Dave
has as good head for writing interest
ing letters as for fighting against the
Spaniards.
The returned sailor reached Chicago
Saturday and hurried home to surprise
his parents with his unexpected return.
He was seen this morning by NEWS
reporter, but looked little of the soldier
which his service for his flag proclaims
him to be, and as one of his friends put
it he is only our little white headed
Dave grown to the proportion of man.
Avoiding all notoriety the hero had
laid aside his suit of blue and dOnned a
one which makes him appear only as
civilian. Dave is we'll and strong and
has nothing but good things to say of
the government he served so faithfully.
He spoke very enthusiastically of the
work of the good ship Massachusetts,
but as usual, with retiring modesty,
refused to speak of his own noble deeds.
While the Massachusetts was not con-
nected with the feet in the great battle
near Santiago, she did invaluable SER
vice for the government and in many
bloody blockade the brave boys
of this ship stood stripped to the
waist and poured hot shot and
shell into the batteries of the Span
iards. She also received the brunt of
the return fire of the Spaniards and
many a she'll burst in close proximity
TO Dave while he was operating the
guns of his vessels. The Kenosha boy
was also proud of the work of the
Massachusetts in sinking the Regina
Mercedes, and promises to tell US all
about the bloody fight before be re-
turns to his post again.
Dave brought home with him many
relics of the war. Shortly after the
battle of Santiago he was permitted to
visit the flagship of Admiral Cervera,
and he brought away many valuable
souvenirs which will be left as price
less heritage to his frieAds. Among
these relics are swords and revolvers;
and even great shells which we're
hurled by the Spanish vessels on to the
very deck of the cadets ship. Most
valuable of all, however, is the collec
ton of relics taken from the cabin of
Admiral Cervera on the Maria Theresa.
Among them are several pieces of the
silver plate bearing the name and rank
Of the Spanish Admiral.

KNOCKED HIM FLAT.
Well Known Merchant Attempts to Climb
a Heavily Charged Fence.

Well Known Merchant Attempts to Climb
a Heavily Charged Fence.
A we'll known merchant of the city
had business to transact with farmer
living along the electric road Friday
afternoon and attempted to facilitate
his trip by cutting across number of
fields. This necessitated the climbing
of a barbed wire fence. When the
merchant took hold of the ferce he was
tumbled into heap on the ground and
when he picked himself up he hunted
around to find his assaildDt.
He approached the fence more eau
tiously this time and discovered that
one of the wires of the fence had been
connected with the M. R. & z. guy
wire running along the road. The
work had evidently been done for a
Joke, but the merchant says that he
didn't see anything funny about it.
An effort was made to remove the
wire, but he was unable to do it, The
case will be reported to the company.
The gentleman was very fortunate
to escape with as little Injury as he
did. and some steps shonld be taken to
find and punish the man who planned
the Joke.

A MANLY MAN.
Father Elskamp Takes the Bull by the
Horns at ST. Georges.

Father Elskamp Takes the Bull by the
Horns at st. Georges.
Father Elskamp, the new rector at
st. Georges church, made his first
appearance Sunday, and from the
manly way in which he met the un-
pleasant reception which greeted him
caused him to raise great deal in the
mind of the members of the church.
He made a short talk to the c0ngrega-
ton, in which he stated that he was
sorry that such conditions had arisen.
He did not desire to come to Kenosha,
and even had come against his own
desires. The appointment was made
by the Bishop, and he was here to do
his best. He stated that he heard some
of the members had refused to continue
the work of raising money for the re-
pairs of the church and to these Father
Elskamp said that the work was for
God and not for Father Dreis or Father
Elskamp.
Father Elskamp made a spendid
impression on his first Sunday and we
predict Tor him a successful term as
pastor of st. Georges church.

The BARRIERS Union of the city gave
a very enjoyable dancing party at Col

about the city. The boys had large
crowd and did everything to show their
guests good time.

KENosAA BOYS WIN.
Racine Monarchs are Defeated in a Very
Exciting Contest.


The Kenosha baseball fends have at
last succeeded in breaking the hodoo
which seems to be hanging over them,
and Sunday afternoon the North
western Wire Mattress team defeated
the Racine Monarchs at the Sterling
grounds, by score of IL to 16. Hard
hitting on both sides was one of the
chief features of the game. The Keno
sha boys started out we'll and took a
good lead by knocking the Monarchs'
pitcher out of the box. However, the
man who was put in to pitch for the
visitors proved an enigma, and the
home team won only after hard fight.
Harkin and Weier distinguished
themselves by making two triple plays.
Over 500 spectators witnessed the
contest. The following was the line up:

Capt. William Miller received this
morning the guns and side arms which
will be used for arming Company E of

of the latest pattern. are we'll suited

uniforms for the officers have already
arrived, but the men in the ranks will
be forced to wear the fatigue uniform

longer.

Company E Will Furnish Sport During
the Coming Winter.
A number of the members of Co. E
met Friday evening and organized an
indoor base ball team. The Company
boasts among its members many strong
players and promises to make things
interesting for the other athletic Or
ganizStions in the city. Mac Mckenzie
will be the manager and captain of the
team, which consists of the following
members: De Diemar, Peters, Nc
Kenzie, Cropley, Starbuck, Anderson
Holderness, Haskins and Culley.
While speaking of indoor base ball
teams we don't see what is to hinder
the organization of city league in
Kenosha this season. Nearly every
factory in the city has players enough
to form a good team and in some cases
the teams have already been formed.
Nearly all of them have been approach
ed on the subject and are highly in
favor of an industrial league.
The season is now near at hand and
the organization of tho league would
farnish lots of amusement.

Brown had been held in Rapid Cily
ever since the preliminary hearing
a few DAYS after the murder. The
case is n Of those typical frontier
murders, occurring in an morgan
lied district and committed without
an eye witness. "Pitch Pine Fred, F"
as he was familiary known, was
supposed to have a considerable
sum of money which he carried in a
belt for safe keeping. On July 18th
last he was murdered at the house
of j. G. Backus near Runaway
Springs and the belt and it's con-
tents was removed. The old man
was at the house alone at the time
and was shot from the inside of the
house through an open window.
He was sitting outside in the shade,
with his head presumably leaning
against the side of1 the window.
The case was completed Wednes( ay
evening and after a few minutes the
jury returned a verdict OF not guilty.
Court is nov grinding on cases of
minor Importance.

Circuit Court.

Circuit court has been grinding
all week with Judge McGee presid-
ing. A number of minor cases
have been disposed of.
The case of State VS.. Harry Ed
wards was taken up Monday. Ed
wards was charged with the theft of
q bunch of Indian cattle, which
were loaded at Brennan and taken
to Ainsworth. Nebr., and.sold. The
trial attracted a good deal of atten-
ton. The evidence brought ont the
fact that while Edwards helped load
the cattle at Brennan and accom-
panied them in shipment, he was
simply in the employ of q second
party, the notorious Hank. Smith,
whose whereabouts are now un-
known. Edwards, it seems, had
nothing to do with the theft of the
stock and at Don Tuesday the Jury
returned a verdict of acquittal.
On Tuesday afternoon the case of
state VS.. Harry Brown, charged
with the murder and robbery of old
man Frederickson at Runaway
Springs last July was taken up.
