AN ARTISTIC TREAT.
SPLENDID ENTERTAINMENT GIVEN
FOR DECORATION FUND.
LARGE CROWD IN ATTENDANCE
Program Given by Local Talent Assisted
by Miss Sarah Munson, of Chicago
Proceeds will be Large and will
be Used at once.

A very enjoyable and artistic enter
talnment was given Thursday night at
Central Music Hall, for the purpose of
raising money to assist in the work OF
school room decoration. The hall was
crowded to it's capacity and everybody
was delighted with the splendid pro-
gram. Nearly all the best local talent
was engaged and the program from
first to last was feast of literary and
musical dainties.
The exercises opened with an over
ture of popular national airs by the
High school orchestra, consisting of
Misses Erickson, Frantz and Wervie,
and Messrs. Hanson, Stemm and
Slater. The orchestral number was
followed by a defamation by James
Anderson, who gave Kipling's =" White
Mans Burden" in pleasing manner.
Little Josephine Jacoby, always a
favorite, followed with pretty violin
solo and responded in a graceful man
ner to the hearty encore she received.
Charles Cooper sang pretty senti-
mental ballad, entitled, "Thou Art
the One, " after which Perdita Dewey
retold the story of Paul Revere's ride,
in the beautiful language of Longfellow
The little lady made a decided hit and
showed much real talent. She was
was enthusiastically applauded, but
refused to respond.
The feature Of the evening was the
first appearance in this city, of Miss
Sarah MunsoD, of Chicago. Miss
Munson has beautiful soprano voice,
and what is more to the point she
knows how tocontrol it. Her numbers
were we'll selected and her finely mod
ulated voice and the charming express
sion in her music merited the hearty
encore she received. J4
Miss Amy Corey played two pretty
piano selections, which were followed
by Miss Helen Theirs, who spoke an
entertaining Scotch story, which elicit
ed great praise from the audience.
Misses Ruth Melville and Florence
Onstadt gave the final number, entitled
" The Minuet." The little girls were
dressed in gowns modelled after those
worn by their grandmothers and they
looked exceedingly pretty moving
through the graceful figures of the
minuet of days long gone by. The
girls received hearty encore and
responded with repetition of the
last stanza.
The young ladies having the enter
tainment in charge report that inan
cially it surpassed their expectations
and a neat sum of money will be added
to the fund for school room decoration.

A RAILROAD WRECK.
FOUR CARS DEMOLISHED NEAR
PLEASANT PRAIRIE STATION.
TRAIN BROKE IN TWO PARTS
The Cars Demolished Were Los ded with
Wheat and oats and Residents of
the Neighborhood Reaped an
Early harvest

News was brought to this city that a
wreck of rather large proportions oc
Cured on the Kenosha Division of the
North Western railroad, near the
station at Pleasant Prairie at an early
hour this morning. The details of the
smash up received here are meagre,
but it is reported as positive that no
lives we're lost, although the property
loss to the company is large. The
train was special train coming east,
in charge of Conductor Callahan. Four
cars were piled up on the track, and as
it is not known what the cars were
loaded with, the loss cannot be esti-
mated, but it will probably be several
thousand dollars.
A special to the NEWS from Pleasant
Prairie gives the details of the wreck
as follows:
A freight train coming east loaded
with grain was wrecked one half mile
west from Pleasant Prairie station.
Four cars loaded with wheat and two
with oats we're completely destroyed
and another stands on the side track in
dilapidated condition. The accident
happened about 2:3O this morning and
was caused by the train breaking
apart. The half fastened to the engine
went ia on the side track, the engineer
not knowing the condition of his train.
The other half came tearing down the
grade and smashed into the fore part
causing the destruction. The wrecked
cars are completely destroyed, one of
them being smashed so badly that it
would be hard to distinguish there ever
was car there. The other three are
overturned, one being cut in two
Wheat and oats are scattered all over
the tracks in the vicinity and the whole
scene presents one of complete ruin.
The oats and wheat are mixed to-
gether, except in the case of two cars
which were overturned. The wreck
ing train is there and the debris is
being cleared away 1t is reported
that Mr.. Fl. Grow is negotiating for the
purchase of the grain, while the broken
pieces of cars are being hauled away
by neighbors.

HOW THEY DO IT.
Burglartes Said to Have Been Committed
By Travelling Peddlers.

Burg1aries Said to Have Been Committed
By Travelling Peddlers.
The ladies living on Chicago street
think they have solved the question as
to how the recent burglaries were
continued and they claim that the
robberies are the work of travelling
peddlers, who have been making Ke-
nOsha their rendezvous the past two
weeks.
This theory was proved by the story
of lady living near the Brown resi-
dence on Chicago street, which was
robbed Wednesday afternoon. About
the time of the robbery a boy came to
the door Of the lady's home and sought
to sell some court plaster. When the
lady refused to buy the boy went away
and was later joined by companion,
who had been waiting for him. The
two went at once to the Brownresidence
and the same scheme was worked and
in this manner they discovered that no
one was at home.
Similar cases have been found in
different parts of the city, and in the
future the police will do we'll to keep
all such peddlers under proper surveil-
lance

HIS 86TH BIRTHDAY.
j. L. Stevens Gives Dinner in Honor of
the Event.

j. l.. Stevens Gives Dinner in Honor of
the Event.
A small dinner party of friends and
relatives gathered at the residence of
j. L. Stevens today to assist in cele
brating his 85th birthday. That
the occasion was joyful one goes
without saying. Mr.. Stevens is one of
the oldest residents of this county,
having reached Kenosha, then Pike
Creek, February, 1886. He settled in
Pleasant Prairie, where he lived until
about thirty years ago, when he took
up his residence on Prairie ave. The
following impromptu poem was read
on the occasion:
It seems a SANDER if say,
Dear uncles eighty-five today.
Not one OF us, I'm sure would trace
So many years upon his face.
And yet we know of grief and cara
He's had at least the common share.
And through those years we know full we'll
He bravely bore what e'er befell.
And may his years, like sheaf of wheat,
Be rounded out full and complete,
And not one day be sad or dark,
Till he shall reach the century mark

HAD A BIG FIGHT.
Main Street Pedestrians Were Treated to
a Rare Sight.


Pedestrians on Main street were
treated to rare spectacle about 8
o'clock Friday night, in the way of a
free for all street fight. Several men
had been about the street drinking and
from all reports we're in dangerous
mood. Two of these clans met at the
corner of Main and Park streets, and in
few moments first class fight was
in progress.
Nobody seems to know how the fight
originated, but one man was soon laid
out fat and has since been confined to
his room. Another one of them has a
badly blackened eye, while the other
members of the two parties are dis
playing some bad bruises.
After the fight had gotten we'll under
way the police arrived on the scene and
after a good, hard fight four of the
marauders were lodged in Jail. They
were Lawrence Kingsburg, L. Larsen,
Ed Nelson and James McGivern.
They all appeared before Justice Slater
this morning and plead guilty to a
charge Of fighting on the street and
were fined So and costs each.
The real perpetrators of the fight
have not been arrested and probably
will escape punishment. The fines
were all paid.

FIGHT WAS TAME.
Deacon" Dodge and Harry Failes Fight a
six Round Bout Without Decision.

Deacon" Dodge and Harry Failes Fight
six Round Bout without Decision.
About two hundred men and boys,
representing the sporting fraternity of
Kenosha, gathered at Congress hall
last night to witness the first public
athletic exhibition given in the city
and the crowd was anything but salts
fed with the character of the enter
tainment put up. Not that everything
was not perfectly orderly and properly
managed, but the bout was exceedingly
tame. No ring was pitched and the
only semblance of a fight was a canvas
stretched on the floor with chairs for
the principals at the corner.
The principal event of the evening
was six round go between Deacon"
Dodge, the colored pugilist, and Harry
Failes, back number, of Milwaukee.
John Steinbach acted as master of
ceremonies and called the men to the
mat at 9:52. Dodge was seconded by
Arthur Heating, while his opponent
was handled by Scotty Mckay, of Mil
waukee. Ted Murphy, of Milwaukee,
acted as referee.
The rounds were two minutes long
and at the end of the six rounds neither
man showed any effects of the contest.
Dodge had the best of the bout in the
first rounds and landed several times
on Failes, but toward the end it was
evident that Failes would get the de-
cision in a long contest. The referee
awarded first blood to Dodge in the
sixth round, when he landed rather
heavily on his opponents nose and
made the blood flow freely.
The exhibitions of bag punching
before the bout were of very ordinary
nature. The management promises
some better exhibitions in the future.

Those Little Curls.

No matter what the style of couture
is, whether the hair is done high or
low, or in pompadour combs, below
the coil there are found two, some
times three tiny curls. They add a
quaint coquettishness to a pretty face
that is charming in the extreme. Not
once in fifty times are they natural.
1t, is impractical to curl the ends of
the hair that are needed to wind up
scientifically the coil But they are
pretty just the same, and make a
pretty face twice as attractive.

A BIT OF HISTORY.
Applied to Present Cond1t1ons-Interesting
to Our Readers.

to Our Readers.
It's singular thing how trifing an
incident will often change the worlds
history. IT the country gentleman
living in Cheshire, England, had not by
accident been thrown from his coach
into the lap of young lady, the pair
might never have married or migrated
to the American colonies, and thus the
world would never have known OF
George Washington as the father of
our country. SO it is in the daily life
of every one, little things" occur
which affect the future. Veteran j. I.
Cross, of 1891 First St., Milwaukee,
SAYS he knows we'll how fortune smiles
at times on the afflicted in showing
how relief is near at hand. His ex
perience and advice is given in the
following words
" Kidney complaint was legacy left
