Success.

Annual Partv of the Boys is a Great
Success.
The annual dancing party given by
the delivery boys club, came off last
night at Columbia Hall, and to say it
was a success would be putting it in
very mild terms. The hall was packed,
over $50 people being in attendance,
and every one seemed to have a most
enjoyable time. The party was COM
pletely in charge fof the club, which
consists of Messrs. Mort Miller, Louie
Schultz, Will Bloxdorf, Frank Hartung
Will Meyers, Louie Hansen, John
Rossing and Chris Wier, and the boys
may we'll be proud of the way they
kept up theirreputation as entertainers.
The boys were designated from the
remainder of the crowd by their neat
badges of white and red ribbon and
pretty bouquets of red and white car
nations.
The music was.furnished by Stemm's
full orchestra and Mort Miller did the
calling.

M. LINK HITS BACK.
He Says His Bowling Alley is Quiet and
Orderly.


To the Editor: -Anent the petition
recently presented to the Hon. Mayor
and Common Council of the city of
Kenosha, praying that the said body
may abate the nuisance, as the petit
toner terms it, by the use of a certain
bowling alley, kept by me on Milwau-
kee avenue, in this city, in connection
with my place Of business.
1t is true the said bowling alley is in
operation, and the same is under my
immediate personal supervision, and
nv record in all of the years that
have been in business in that neighbor-
hood will justify me in the assertion
that the said bowling alleys conducted
in an orderly and quiet manner, and
not as the petitioner alleges, with such
great noise and disturbance as to rem
der utterly impossible the enjoyment of
his home by my esteemed neighbour or
his family, or their living therein near
ly unbearable, as charged in his
petition.
deny that my customers, patrons or
myself are continually using said
bowling alley by day and by night, as
he states, and [ most emphatically
deny his allegation that said bowling
alley was laid out and prepared by the
Schlitz Brewing Co., and is unneces-
sarily used by me for the express pur-
pose of annoying or harassing the petit
toner, as he states, or any other
neighbor of mine.
The Schlitz Brewing Co. does not,
neither does any of It's officers know the
petitioner, and until said building and
bowling alley were completed, was it
known by said company that l was to
be the lessee.
Under these circumstances it is diff
cult to conceive in what manner malice
could be imputed to the said Schlitz
Brewing Co.
To operate this bowling alley re-
quires an expenditure of time and
money and is operated only at reason
able hours, purely as business adven-
ture, and in strict conformity to law.
No minors are permitted at any time to
play thereon.
It is we'll known that throughout the
State of Wisconsin various bowling
clubs have been organized and are nov
existing for the purpose of physical ex-
ercise and development and one or
more of these clubs have played match
games for pleasure on one or two occa-
sions on said bowling alley, but in no
sense of the term could the playing by
said clubs or by my patrons or custom
ers be called a nuisance.
This petitioner has unjustly, for
some reason or other, tried to iniure
my business. He has circulated the
petition referred to among my immedi-
ate neighbors living in the vicinity of
my place of business and has absolutely
failed to secure the signature or en-
dorsement of one single individual.
His failure to secure the endorsement
of any of our neighbors seems to me
may fairly be taken as evidence that
the alleged nuisance exists only in the
imagination of the petitioner, and that
if malice may be imputed it exists only
in his mind.
/ l cordially invite the public in gen.
eral to my place of business and judge
for themselves as to the truth or falsity
of his allegations.
Very truly yours,
MICHAEL LINK.

ROBBED OF S17OO.
Adolph Kruger Meets With the Slick
Fingered Gentry

Fingered Gentry.
Adolph Kruger complained at the
police office this afternoon that he had
been robbed of $1,000. Of this amount
5000 was in cash and the remainder in
checks and certificates of deposit. He
was carrying the money and papers in
one of his hip pockets and it was in a
large pocketbook. He had the money
at noon and shortly afterward he went
to the barber shop. When he came
out of the shop he went to the Swartz
saloon, in the opera house block and a
short time afterward discovered his
loss. The officers have no clew to the
person who took the money. For
several days Kruger has been carrying
large sums of cash and sureties and has
made display of it several times.
