The only Circus.

In accordance with the arrange
ments of League and American Show
men, the only big circus that will visit
this section of the state this season is
the Great Wallace Shows, which will
be in Kenosha on Saturday, July 28.s
Referring to this show the Daily
Telegram, of Ashland, Pa, says:
The best circus that ever visited
Ashland. That was the general ver-
dict of the people who attended the
show yesterday afternoon and
evening, and it was an opinion that
was deserved. Many of the principal
features were entirely new, and the
trapeze work, and the performance of
the Nelson family, and scores of other
people were frst-c1ass in
every particular. The hippodrome and
racing events were close and exciting,
and were watched with breath1ess in
terest, and some of the finishes
brought the audience cheering to their
feet.

ing was the construction of the tracks
and plant of the Chicago and Milwau-
kee Electric Railway company, now in
operation between Waukegan and
Evanston. This work was completed
only last year, and by experts it is said
to be the finest piece of roadbed in the
West to be utilized by an electric
line.
On account Of his work for the road
Mr.. Arnold has since its completion
been the consulting engineer for the
Chicago and Milwaukee line and on
this account it is stated that he is Sc
curing the rights for this line through
Kenosha. Mr.. Arnold has not con-
firmed this statement and has asserted
that he was connected with the new
line only as a consulting engineer.
The Waukegan Sun quotes one of
the officers of the Chicago and Mil
waukee company as speaking as fol-
lows in regard to the Kenosha frau
chise:
eve have been n1isrepresented as
having an interest in one or other or
the two projects, but we have no inter
est whatever IL any projected line
north Of Waukegan. At the same
time we hope to see the line built and
through connection established at Ke-
nosha with the present line to Mil
waukee. It will benefit the traffic at
both ends of the line and will be a
boon to the public"

WHO is B. ]. ARNOLD?
Some of the Work That Has Been
Done by the Head of the Kenosha
Street Railway Franchise.
WE'LL KNOWN RAILROAD MAN.
Built the Inter Mural Railway at the
Worlds Fair and the C. & M.
Line to Waukegan.

On account of many questions that
have been asked in regard to Dion j..
Arnold, the new man at the head of
the street railway franchise through
Kenosha, we have spent some time IN
looking up Mr.. Arnold and the result
Of these Investigations is highly salts
factory.
Mr.. Arnold has been prominent in
the street railway world for many
years and is one of the best known
consulting engineers in Chicago. He
has been connected with the construc-
ton of many great railways and has
always brought them to a successful
termination. The s'Arno1d system, -
which is to be installed when the Keno
sha plant is built, is now in use on
several lines in the west and has been
shown to be great success.
The first great work of Mr.. Arnold
in the railway world was completed in
1898, when he designed and superin-
tended the construction of the Inter
Mural railway at the Worlds Fair at
Chicago, which was the first successful
elevated road built in the United
States.
After this Mr.. Arnold at once took d
leading place in the electric world, and
he next built the electric railway be-
tween Eng1ewood and Chicago. This
was followed by the installation of a
large electric plant for the city Of St.
| Louis, and the construction of COM
p1ete light and power plant for the
Chicago and Great Western Railway
company at Oelwe11, Iowa. His last
and most successful piece of engineer

BAD BOYS FROM GAINESVILLE.
omcers zievers and washbish Arrest two
Boys Thought to be Runawayg.

James Bowers and Mitit Barnes,
aged IS years each, are occupying a
cell at the County jail until the police
can discover what they are and'why
they left their hpppy homes in James
vile.
The boys struck Kenosha late Fri
day evening, and a short time after
they struck the town they struck
officers Washbish and zievers. The
latter got inquisitive, and it appeared
that the boys had run away from home,
and they were placed in the jail for
safe keeping. The boys had evident
1y started out to see the world, and
were prepared for long siege of it.
Both of them were well supplied with
tobacco and cigarette papers, and each
had little money.
They seemed to take their arrest
very phi1osophica1ly, and, indeed,
seemed rather familiar with the inside
of the jail. The police are looking the
boys up, and they will be held until
after the GAINESVILLE police have been
notified of their arrest.
No charge was placed against them
by the officers who arrested them.

Madame Buddha in Town.

Madame Buddha, one of the most re-
nowned c1airvoyants and trance medi-
urns in the world, has come to Kenosha
for short business visit and has open
ed an office at 361 Ashland avenue.
Madame Buddha comes to Kenosha
with splendid recommendation from
the press of other cities and is said to
be wonder in her line. She has been
leader in her line for many years and
has gained quite an honorable position
in the world of c1airvoyance. She
doesn't claim to be the seventh daugh-
ter or daughter of the seventh son, but
she will be sure to give you clear in
sight into your past and future. A call
will convince the most skeptical that
the lady has wonderful powers.

REPORTS ON STATE HARBoRs.
Capt Warren Makes an Accounting of
Work to the war Department.

Capt. ]. G.. Warren, engineer in
charge of the river and harbor inn
provements in this district, has made
his report to the war department at
Washington for the fiscal year ending
June 80. In the Milwaukee harbor, six
tim Der cribs have been built and pro-
vided with a continuous timber super
structure. Three cribs have been'added
to the harbor of refuge here. In Racine
harbor over $4,000 cubic yards of ma
teria1 were reno yed and 800 1inea1 feet
of old pier and dock and 149 cords of
stone were removed. About 200, 778
cubic yards of material were removed
from Kenosha harbor. The channel
of Menominee river has been increased
to the required depth of twenty feet,
according to the soundings taken in
November, 1899. Green Bay harbor
was improved by removing 100000
cubic ards of material. From Ke-
waunee harbor more than $1,000 cubic
yards were removed and from Two
Rivers over 1926 cubic yards. The
work on the north side Of Sturgeon Bay
and Lake Michigan ship canal has been
completed and the work on the south
side is now in progress. Soundings
taken at Oconto harbor May IA, 1900,
show a depth of nine feet below the
datum plane of harbor improvements.
The report recommends the conso1-
idation of the Menominee river and
Menominee harbor.

A NOVEL ISSUE.


Wagon Freight Service between
Hampstead and Houston Probable.
Hampstead News.
The probabilities are thai within few
days a meeting Of Hempsteai lntrchan IS
will be held to consider the ACCESSIBILITY
of establishing wagon service between
here and Houston for the transportation
OF cotton thsre and freight here,
The move is one that mas been under
advisability for some Tune, and excessive
freight rates are responsible Tor its sgl-
tatior. Hemptead Is only fourteen miles
further from Houston than Brookshire,
yet the latter place only pays 80 GEMS per
bale freigEtage, whereas Hampstead pays
SIPS per baIe.
The principal point contended is that
under such circumstances it is preferaole
20 pay 1925 for t1e wason service tlan
to the railroads, as it VIII keep the money
at home and put ii in the pockets OF mea
and farmers who have teams laying idle
and who Will nsed it. The point is we'll
raised and sustained and contains sound
logic.
Hampstead asked tina Houston and Teas
Central road for 75-cent per bale rate,
but was refused. The meeting Will prove
whether the man or the railroad is the
master. 1t will be strange II wagon trans
portltior proves cheaper than steam
transportation.

The lines have agreed upon a minimum
rale OF Sl.50 per train m lie for the special
