There was a warm time in China
town Saturday night, 'when the Free
Masons gave grand celebration for
the benefit of their members, All the
'boys" were out with clean shayed
heads and in their best regalla to
witness the mystic rites that bound
them la the chains OF fraternity.
A large section Of the ground, In
front of the Liberty street house, was
covered with mating and around thfs
was spread eatables OF all kinds and
descriptions, nor was the genial demi-
john OF "Chinee gin" left out.
The cab, listlc rites were chanted
by grizzle.headed priest and the
gathered population OF China town,
by repeated genuplexlous, attended
their reverence for the deity. When
the reporter asked what they meant by
prostrating themselves a genial Free
Mason replied ooh him all same you
gee eli, you SAX. Candles, and prayers
aud many mysterious piles Of papers
were burned to keep away the eYil
spirit, aud then the jolly crowd ad-
iourned TO their ball TO hold high
Teyel In honor of the hand OF frater-
nifty that holds, aud binds all nations
together.

BIG IMPROVEMENT.
EDWARD Balm WILL FURNISH THE
CITIZENS A BEAUTIFUL DRIVE.
And Furnish a Magnificent Drive Over
Five Miles in Length-Contract is Let
to A. E. Rutledge & Company,
of Rockford, Ill.

The much talked of Balm drive is at
last TO be a reality and the contract for
the work has been let to A. E. Rut-
ledge & Co., and work will be begun
next Monday. For some time Mr..
Balm has had under consideration the
building of drive about his property
just south Of the city which will unite
the city streets of Durkee avenue and
Park avenue. The road will be built
of macadam and will be built to cor
respond to the work on Durkee avenue
with curbing and all the modern i'm
provements. Mr.. Rain expects to make
his portion of the streets the most
beautiful in the city. Before the work
of paving is begun complete system
of sewers, water works and gas mains
will be laid so that when the work is
completed the property along the Balm
drive will be as valuable as any in the
city When the work is completed in
this section of the city and on Grand
avenue Kenosha will have drive such
as no Wisconsin city of her size can
boast of.
From the limits on the north side
along Grand avenue and Prairie avenue
to the south limits of the city road
will be built of unexcelled merits to
drivers which will be over five miles in
length.
Mr.. Bain's new scheme will not only
be a great benefit to the city, but will
be of great value to the gentleman
himself as it will make the little
suburb at the south limits of the city a
most beautiful place for residence
property. For some time the great
objection to the Country Club grounds
has been the fact that it was almost
impossible to reach the Club house
awheel, but the building of the ma
cadam street directly in front of the
grounds will remove all difficulties in
the future.
The work on the new street when
begun will be pushed rapidly to COM
pletion and the road will be ready for
the use of the public by October 1st.
The new street will be named Balm
avenue in honor of the builder.

CONTAINS BACTERIA.
Prof Frost of the State University analyses
Kenosha water.

A short time ago DR.. Cleary sent a
quantity of lake water used for drink
ing purposes in this city to Madison for
analysis. The water was turned over
to Prof. Frost, Professor of BacteriOlogy
in the State University and the result
of his Investigations which were re-
ceiyed today show that the water
should not be used for either drinking
or cooking without first being either
boiled or filtered.
The professors analysis shows that
each cubic centimeter of the water
nourishes 225 bacteria. These are OF
six species and two of them grow in the
same temperature as the human body.
One of the Bacilli-COli COmmunis-
was found in great quantities and &C.
cording to the statement of Mr.. Frost
this indicates that the water contains
focal matter. The water subject
should be investigated and proper steps
be taken to secure better water
supply for the city.

YOUTH AND BEAUTY.
MEET AT A PLEASANT DANCING
PARTY THURSDAY EVENINGS.
MRS. J I. NEFF ENTERTAINs.
The st. Georges Church Choir Gave
an Enjoyable Party in Honor of
Father Phillip Dreis Prior to
His Departure.

One of the most elaborate parties
ever given in the city was given on
Thursday evening by Mrs. j. l. Neff, in
honor of the sixteenth birthday of her
charming daughter, Miss Florence.
The delightful entertainment was
given at the University school and the
rooms of the old classic building never
looked prettier. Drake, TIE florist,
had decorated the rooms until they
presented picture of rare beauty.
Great palms were placed about the
halls and corridors and here and there
were placed beautiful potted plants
which added color to tie decorations.
Rugs and screens, together with all the
decorations of the drawing room
changed the entire appearance of the
rooms and creeping vines were inter
woven into the stairway. which led to
the beautiful dance hall on the second
floor. Mrs. Neff was assisted in enter
tanning by her daughter and Mrs. j. B.
Draper.
Dancing was the feature Of the eve
ming and it was surely a meeting Of
youth and beauty. Music was furnish
ed by Rhode & Jacoby, and nearly
every dance was enthusiastically en-
Uored by the young people, anxious to
chase the happy hours with flying feet.
At IL o'clock refreshments were
served in the billiard room, which was
also beautifully decorated, one of the
features of the floral arrangements be-
ing bunch of sixteen American
Beauties, which was the present Of one
of Miss Neff's friends. After refresh
ments were served dancing continued
until early morning.
All the memb ers of KenOsha society
we're in attendance and many of their
parents also enjoyed the pleasures of
the evening. Among the out of town
guests we're Misses Mitchell and
Thompson, of Racine.
st. Georges Choir Entertain.
The choir of St. Georges church gave
a very pleasant reception at the school
hall on Thursday evening, in honor of
Father Phillip Dreis, who leaves in a
short time for his new work at Gale
donna. The reception was very en-
ioyable affair and besides the members
of the choir the trustees of the church
and large number of friends were in
attendance.
The evening was spent in converse
ton and the choir, under direction of
Prof. Flasch, rendered several beauti-
full musical selections which were
greatly enjoyed by the guests. One of
the features of the evening was the
speeches made by several of the guests
and members of the choir. The choir
is evidently very anxious to keep
Father Phillip, as they presented him
with very beautiful chain. ExChief
of Police Stemm made the presentation
speech and paid beautiful tribute to
the noble work of Father Phillip while
connected with St Georges church.
Father Phillip responded in few
words, thanking the choir and assuring
chem that he would ever cherish only
pleasant memories of his life in Keno
sha.
Peter Lentz and Attorney Bohmrich
also made short speeches, expressing
sincere sorrow that Father Phillip was
70 be removed from the Kenosha
church. At the close a bountiful
lunch was served.
