DON'T KNOW BBGGs.
Franchise Seeker Dewolf Says That He is
Not in cahoots With Milwaukee Co.

Edward T. DeWo1f, of Waukegau.
who is seeking a franchise for a local
street railway in Kenosha, has made
the statement that he does not know
John /. Beggs, the head ruler of the
Milwaukee Electric Railway and Light
Company. On the heels of the state
ment that he is not acquainted with
the Milwaukee man Mr.. DeWo1f adds
that he is not in any way in cahoots
with the Milwaukee company as stated
in an interview of Mr.. Beggs' a short
time ago.
When Mr.. DeWo1f was shown the
statement which had been made bv
Mr.. Beggs he took a long breath ana
then proceeded to deny it in true pro-
moter fashion. In speaking of the
matte the Waukegan man said:
'Tke promoters of the electric road
enterprise which I am pushing" said
E. P. DeWo1f today, ''are entirely in
dependent of the Chicago and MiGwau-
kee electric road or the Milwaukee
Electric Railway, we are in nc wav
connected with either of these com
panies. Our intentions are to build 2
local line in Kenosha and construct =
line between here and Kenosha. Nat
urally, though we are not in cahoots
with these people, we are looking for
business and after our present plans
are carried out, we do not know what
will be done"
Regarding his associations with Mr..
Beggs Mr.. DeWo1f said: 81 do not
even know Mr.. Beggs, have never seen
him, so consequently am certainly not
working in conjunction with him.

A FAREWELL RECEPTION.
Members of st. Matthew's Parish Gather
at the Guild Hall.

There was very pleasant informal
social given at St. Matthew's guild
hall Monday evening, the occasion be-
ing a farewell reception to Rev. Harry
Thompson, who severed his connection
with the church on Sunday. The hail
had been pretti1y decorated for the oc-
casion and a good1y representation of
the membership of the parish were in
attendance. There was no special
amusement prepared for the evening
and most of the time was given over to
a renewal of friendships and saying
farewell to the minister and his fam
lily. Nice refreshments were served
during the evening ard a musical pro-
gram was rendered by Mrs. H. E. Tan
ner and Mr.. Fields.
The annual parish meeting was
held before the reception at the Vestry
of the church. The reports of the diff
ferent church societies were presented,
but the main business of the meet
ing was laid over for three weeks
at which time the wardens and vestry
will be elected and some action will be
taken toward securing a successor for
Mr.. Thompson as rector of the church.

MRS. MARTHA ROBINSON DEAD
Early Settler of Pleasant Prairie Passed
Away Early Saturday Morning.

Mrs. Martha Robinson, widow of the
late John Robinson, and mother of
Lafayette Robinson, former chairman
of the town of Pleasant Prairie, died
at the home of her son in that town at
an early hour Saturday morning.
The deceased had been failing for
some time and the cause of her death
was largely the giving way of the
vital organs on account of old age.
Mrs. Robinson was SO years of age and
was one of the earliest settlers of the
town. She was born in Amsterdam,
n. Y where she married John Robin
son. In 1849 she came to this county
with aer husband and took up their
residence on what is now known as the
old Robinson homestead in Pleasant
Prairie. Since that time Mrs. Robin
son has been almost a continuous
resident of Kenosha county. She had
taken an important part in the life of
the town in which she has lived and
the close of her life found her loved
and respected by all. Three sons sur
vive her. They are William L. and
Mi1t, n E., both engaged in the coal
busi. aess in Chicago, and Lafayette, Of
this county, at whose home the mother
died.
The funeral services were held on
Nor az afternoon at the late residence
aid the remains were followed to their
resting place in the Kenosha cemetery
by 4 large number of relatives and
friends,

SPRING SEASON OPENS.
Keno4na People Celebrate the Closing of
Lent with Many Pleasant Dances.

| The residents of Kenosha celebrated
the opening of the spring social season
NGoncly night with number of very
pleas mt dances at the different halls.
At Park City Hall the Painters and
Decorators union gave their annual
darse and Notwithstanding the bad
wea her, d large crowd was in attend
anc and enjoyed the hospitality of
the wielders of the brush. Always
favorites as entertainers the painters
set a new record and those who were
present report that the dance was one
of the most pleasant events of the
season. Dancing was continued until
early morning.
At Columbia Hall the Tanners and
Curriers' union held forth to a good
crowF 41lc, managed to provide an
auspIcious opening for the social season
The tanners and their friends were out
in force and quite a number of guests
were present from other cities. The
music was kept going until long after
midnight and even then the tired
dancers were unwilling to give up
their favorite pastime.
While the tanners and painters were
celebrating the return of the season on
the North side, the members of the A.
O. H. were making merry on the South
side, where they gave their annual
dance at Central Music Hall, which
was deliberately decorated for the oc-
casion and everything was done to
make the crowd a jolly one. The best
of music was furnished and nearly
every dance was encored. At midnight
supper was served in the dining room
by the Ladies' Auxiliary.
The coming months promises to be
very busy for society people of the
city. Many parties and functions have
been arranged and the city will be ex-
ceeding1y gay until the hot days of
summer bring on the annual season of
rest again.

TOUCHED 1T HARD.
Sports Get at the Strong Box of the Crap
Game and Clear over $500.

No, the ''crap'' game isn't running
today and it will probab bly, be several
days before the operators recover from
the effects of the raid that was made
on the strong box Saturday night,
when it is reported that a number of
the young men about the town touched
the game up for over $500.
The game was fast and furious ana
all the players seemed to have taken a.
fall out of the old man in the cashiers
box. All sorts of stories were abroad
yesterday and from the tenure of them
it is easy to see that some one is way
ahead of the game. The assault was a
carefully planned one and the boys
stuck to the game until the manager
of the resort was forced to stop the
play on account Of1aCk of funds. One
man is reported to have left the game
$3.50 ahead, while punches of 500 and
$50 we're common. 1t seemed to have
been a night off for the game and the
boys took every advantage of it. How
ever it is not thought that the game
will be closed permanently on account
of the losses and will probably open
again as soon as the noodoo from
Easter Sunday has been removed with.
a streak of good luck.

following in regard to the celebration
at Kenosha:
Gin this connection we desire to call
attention to the dedication of the beau
tifu1 soldiers monument at Kenosha,
which will take place on the afternoon
of May 80. It is the gift of one of
Kenosha's best citizens, man whose
heart is not only full of patriotism,
but is also filled with fidelity and
! loyalty to the ex-so1dier. He has given
to our needy comrades and those de-
/ pendent upon them at ali times since
1861, and now Mr.. z. G. Simmons
crowns his 1ife-work in his declining
years with a beautiful monument,
erected to the memory Of the heroic
deeds, upon land and sea, of the sol
diers and sailors of Kenosha county.
Fred S. Lowell Post, No. $50, Kenosha,
will take charge of the dedication, and
we earnestly urge as large an attend
ance of comrades as possible. The
post will send a circular announcing
railroad time tables, reduced rates, etc,
By Command of
S. H. Talmage,
Dept Commander. -

Asst Adj't General.
The committee in charge of the ce1e-
bration have been working with the
railroad companies, and while half
rates will be allowed on all the roads
on Decoration day, the committee are
making an attempt TO have special
rates allow ed for Kenosha from Mil
waukee aud Chicago and all points on

expressed their willingness to assist
the committee and the rates will prob
ably be secured.
