ANOTHER day has gone by but as yet
Sampson has not met the enemy and the
word gono forth that they are ours. If
Commodore Sampson is as lucky in finding
the enemy's navy rs was Dewey, then We
expect to hear good news from Sampson.
The battle off the Philippine Islands by
Dewey is something Of the marvellous or
der and he and his fleet surely must have
borne charmed life. The account Of
how Admiral Dewey manoeuvered his
ships while his gunners poured hot shot
into the enemy has made new history in
naval engagements. The Yankee never
did fear any other nation aud more than
that, he never will. Other nation, have
good soldiers. but America has better.

DOG CAUSED TROUBLE.
sport1ve Canine Follows a Neignbor and
Takes Train to Chicago.

4dhS0 q GAL " O04Cd5U'
Two or three families in Kenosha
were in turmoil of dismay Tuesday,
all over the disappearance of a rat
terrier dog. On Monday morning the
wife of one of the city officials desired
to go to Chicago, and when she arrived
at the train she discovered that small
pup had followed her and great was
her dismay when she discovered that
the pup had boarded the train, and
evidently was determined to see the
sights of the great city.
When the train reached Spring Bluff
the canine was forcibly elected and
ordered to seek its way home in the
best manner he could.
Night arrived and the Chicago visi
tor returned home, but Fido failed to
put in an appearance and the neigh
bors became exceedingly troubled and
it seemed that strained relations would
result between the two households.
Early Tuesday morning the city
official nitched up the old family horse
and hied himselfto Spring Bluff. Here
he found the lost pup, seemingly per
fectly at ease, gnawing bone in the
yard of farmer, who had adopted him.
The official returned and offered to pay
for the dog, but money failed to settle
the trouble. Finally the young lady of
the house went down and the dog see
ing her trotted along home with her
and trouble was finally settled, and
now when the lady goes to Chicago
the dog will be locked up in a safety
deposit vault.

MRS. mary Elizabeth Kruokman.

Once more the black shadow of
death has been cast in our community
In the early morning hours of July O.,
1898, Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Kruckman
died at her home in Wilmot, Wis.
Mary Elizabeth Anderson was born
in the town of Randall, KenOsha
county, Sept. Is, 1913. Her girlhood
was passed in this vicinity. For few
years Immediately preceding her mar
riage to Augustus Henry Kruckman,
April %, 1870, she was successful
teacher in the public schools of Keno
sha county.
Mrs. Kruckman was the mother OF
nine children, two ofIwhom, Alice and
Maggie diedsin the morning of life.
Five daughters and two sons mourn
their mothers departure. They, and
the sorrowing father, fondly hope and
feel that the mother and wife is hidden
in the earth but short time from
mortal sight, and that all will meet
again in land of sunshine and song,
Mrs. Kruckman bore with patience
the intense suffering of her last days.
But the closing scene was peaceful.
Our departed friend and neighbor
was woman of great energy, and
ceaseless industry. She was warm
advocate of good schools and of all
means looking to the betterment of the
community. She had taught her
children the lesson of self help. She
had tried to make happy home for
them and her husband, thus fulfilling
woman's supremest duty in this present
life. No greater tribute can he paid
her memory.
We assure the sorrowing family and
relatives that our hearts go out to
them in this hour of pain and tears.
And so, feeling that she has entered
into eternal rest, we bid her long
farewell

ANOTHER OLD SETTLER GONE.
Thomas Flynn Passed the Dark River
EarlyThis Morning.

At seven o'clock this "wednesday
morning Thomas Flynn, one of the
oldest and most highly respected citi
zens of Kenosha county, passed quietly
to the rest beyond at the family resi-
dence, 425 Pear street. The deceased
had been growing feeble for some time
and his death was not unexpected.
Mr.. Flynn was 78 years of age at the
time of his death and had the honor of
being one of the first white settlers of
old Southport He came to this city
in 1847 from Kings county, Ireland,
and set up a home among the forest.
He has lived here ever since and by his
cheerful disposition and honest
and industrious character he has
gained the confidence of a large circle
of friends. On January II of this year
Mr.. and Mrs. Flynn celebrated the
golden anniversary of their wedding.
A wife and nine children survive him,
most of the children living in other
cities. The arrangements for the
funeral will be announced later.

KENOsHA's PROSPERITY.
Female Help 1.-THE Main Thing Needed in
Kenosha at Present.

E0ma1e Help kbu6 MALI 4uAuS NC000O Al
Kenosha at Present.
Kenosha keeps on growing and her
factories keep increasing. Among the
factories showing large increase is
the Chicago Rockford Hosiery Co.
This factory employs large number of
girls and young women and would en-
ploy a larger number if they could get
them. There is undoubtedly dearth
of female help in Kenosha and work
could be found for from 100 to 200 to
day if they would come to Kenosha to
live. In fact the company above men
toned stated to representative OF
this paper that although they had in
creased largely in the past, they were
at present making arrangements for
more extensions. They are in need of
girls now and between the present time
and fall could give employment to
about 100 more tha1 they employ at
present. The girls at this factory get
good wages, ranging from 81 to $40 per
week according to age and work done,
the average being over one dollar a
day. There is no better home in the
country for families having girls who
want to earn living at good, clean
respectable employment than Keno
sha, Wis. This city can accommodate
a number of such families and they
will be welcome.

Ashland Avenue Citizens Don't Want the
M. R. & K. Road.
The residents along Ashland avenue
are up in arms against the proposition
of the M, r. & K. Electric Railroad
company, which proposes to make this
thoroughfare the southern outlet for a
through line through the city. The
citizens evidently mean business and
this morning one of them stated that a
poll of the street had been made and
the property owners were almost
unanimous in their opposition to the
proposed scheme of the company.
A petition is being prepared and long
before the ordinance comes before the
council for passage these citizens will
present remonstrance as long as the
moral law and then some. The citi-
zens object to the use of their street
in any way for street car line. They
claim that it gives them no benefit and
takes away the quiet repose which has
ever made this neighborhood famous.
