A CENSUS STORY.
One Enumeration Tells OF Some Ex.
perience in the Taking of
the Census.
WOMEN ALWAYS PERSISTENT
Not Only Refuse TO Tell Their Ages, but
Threaten to Set The Dog on The
Enumerators. Experiences

The census boy ca me walking across
the street. On his youthful face was
broad smile. He certainly had occa-
sion to smile, for he had just succeeded
after long w-angle, III discovering
the ages of two old maids. They had
again ard again disputed his right to
ask the question pertaining to the
time of their birth.
The enumerator is very bashful in
the presence of young ladies, but he
refused to bulge an inch now, until he
obtained all the information that
Uncle Sam required him to get. So,
after noting the badge of the govern
ment census on his vest, and seeing
determination written on his face, the
old maids gave in. He wrote the
ages down on the paper and also lin
his mind) closed the portfolio and left
the house, humming: I'D leave my
happy home for YOU"
With a triumphant smile on his face
he directed his steps to the cottage op-
posite. There being but one door
visible he approached it and knocked.
A lady of some fifty years opened the
door. There was a strange look on
her face, and behind her stood dog
which eemed ready to tear the boy to
pieces.
GOOD morning. I have come to
take the census" began the enumer-
ator.
1--WE don't want none" With these
words the door was slammed in his
face.
What should he do? The old maids
were laughing. Some one asked him
"How'd you like to be the ice man?''
and delivery boy asked him as to
trading jobs. Somewhat embarrassed
he walked around the house.
BY this time the old lacy had seated
herself on the back step and was busy
peeling potatoes.
II told you we don't want none of
them things, CALCULATED the lady
with emphasis. IF you don't 20 way
I'll sic Tige on you'll
Madam, you don't understand me.
The United States is counting the
people in the country. There are also
a few questions to ask you. How
many people sleep in the house?"
''Is that ali yere want? Well there's
me and John. He's me ole man is
dead Maybe you know John. He is
working in the tannery. He is me
only boy. All the rest of the kids are
in h., answered the woman quickly.
LET me see, said the enumerator,
your name is Sarah Blank, isn't it?''
Course, answered the woman,
''whatcher suppose it was''.
Snow, Mrs. Blank, continued the
boy, after he had made the proper en-
tries, in what year we're you born?"

ON THE ROOF AGAIN,
Burglars Break into the Hardware
Store of C. A. Dewey on Main
Street Saturday Night.
GOT MUCH VALUABLE BOOTY
Robbers Make an Entrance From the Roof
and After Meeting all Sorts Of Dimcul-
ties Manage 30 Make Escape.

They are on the roof again. This is
the report that is being made to the
police in reference to the gang Of bur
glars who seem to be determined to put
the Kenosha police force to lots OF
trouble. On last Saturday evening
the gang got under way again and
started nights work by breaking
into the Kenosha Sash and Door fac
tory. 1t seems, however, that their
visit to this factory was simply a pre-
liminary one and made for the sole
purpose of securing tools with which
to break into the hardware store of
G. A. Dewey on Main street. The en-
trance of the hardware store was
highly successful one, as the burglars
managed to get away with bag of
''swag' valued at several hundred
dollars.
The entrance to the store was quite
ingenious. The men went up in the
bank building just north Of the hard
ware store and got out on the roof by
means of a window. Once on the roof
they went to a back window on the
third floor of the hardware store and
cut the pane of glass out. Through
this aperture it seems that one of the
men craw1ed into the place and opened
the windows for the admission of the
others. They then went to the second
floor, but their passage was blocked by
a door which was bo1ted in such way
that it was impossible for them to get
through it. They then returned to the
roof and cutting the ropes which held
the elevator the daring burglars
broke open the scutt1e and let them
selves down to the floor below with the
rope. But this was not the end of
their hardships, as there was still an
other door to be broken before they
reached the store room. This proved
easy and it seems that the burglars
took their time and cut out one of the
panels and sent the small man through
again to open the way. Once in the
store they seem to have been ac-
quainted with everything and they
went directly to the cutlery cases and
carried away knives, pistols and razora
enough to start into business with.
The return trip was made to the roof
and the men got away without any
one discovering them. The robbery
was discovered on Sunday and report
ed to the police, but as yet no arrests
have been made in the case.
The robbery is very similar to the
one committed a short time ago at the
store of William F, Fisher and there is
little doubt but that the same men
managed to break into both stores. It
seems that the hardware stores are
particularly favored by the burglars,
as short time ago the store OF H. c..
Schulz was entered. It seems that the
burglars must have a fence" some
where near Kenosha where all the stuff
taken is disposed of, but the officers
have never as yet been able to locate
the purchaser of the stolen property.
The entire police force is at work on
the case and they hope to report the
capture Of the burglars in the next few

KBNosHA WOMAN IN CHINA
Miss Kate scnafer, ofsomers. a Missionary
in China Thought to be- In Danger

in China Thought TO be In Danger
AS the enormity of the Boxer out
RACES in China increase considerable
apprehension is being felt for the
safety of Miss Katherine Schaffer, Of
this county, who is at present working
as a missionary in the island of Hainan
just south Of the China coast. While
it is stated that the Kenosha woman is
in no immediate danger, 1t is feared
that the revolution and horrors inaug-
urated by the Boxers" may spread at
any time and should this movement
become universal it will undoubtedly
result in serious troubles in Hainan, as
many foreign missionaries are located
in the island.
Miss Schafer went to China several
yeors ago, having beeu sent as a Pres
byterian missionary by the church Of
Somers. She has done great deal of
good in the island and is greatly be-
loved by all her associates, as well as
by many of the natives. When last
heard from she said that there was no
reason to fear an uprising against the
foreigners in the island.

Jacob Daniels. of Brighton, and John Fish
of Kenosna, Died on Sunday.
Jacob Daniels, one of the pioneer
settlers of Kenosha county and for
many years a tavern keeper in the
town of Brighton, died early Sunday
morning at the home of his nephew,
Nicholas Daniels, in the town of
Brighton. The deceased was over so
years of age and had been in failing
health for some time. The funeral

church on Tuesday morning.

residence in the town of Brighton the
deceased amassed quite a fortune.
The family of Mr.. Daniels are al
dead, he being the last of the family.

of the city, died Sunday evening at his
residence on Market street. Death
was sudden. The decease ed had been a

years, but on Sunday morning he was
able to be out on the streets. He was
taken down on Sunday afternoon and
died in the evening. a widow and
two sons, Peter and Nicholas, survive.
The funeral was held from St.
Georges church on Wednesday

''Hey?"
''How old are you2'
''Indade, you sassy kid, I'll not tell
we're. Coming here to ask me such
questions. Get away from me'' she ex-
claimed.
Nothing daunted, the enumerator
showed her his badge, his appointment,
his authority for asking the questions
and finally stated to her the fine that
would be imposed if she refused to
answer. Then she declared that she
had forgotten her age and that She had
kept no record.
Perhaps you can tell me on what
day you were BORN, continued the
inquisitive boy.
Sartinly. / was horned on St. Pat
rick's day in the mornin'. You know
Pat, don't you? He drove the snakes
from the ole country. We orter have
one here TOO, don't we're think so, me
boy''; and the old lady became highly
excited.
The enumerator had to keep on in
this manner. Finally, he asked
What year did you come to this coun-
try?"
Il dunno, she answered.
"How many years have you been in
this country. Perhaps you can tell
that questioned the enumeration
further.
II have forgotted," she answered
bluntly.
The boy almost lost his patience, but
he asked:
do you know how old you were when
you came to this country?''
90, yis. I behave yis, / know were

and she grinned
Thank you, Mrs. Blank"
The answers to the questions about
John were not so difficult to obtain.
Later the inquisitive boy again
asked, do you own this placer"

'You have my sincere sympathies,
Mrs. Blank and will pray for you.
But, by the way, I haven't your age.
Can't you remember. AS he uttered
these words his face was wreathed in
smiles. ''Now, me boy, 1 told yere

excited lady.
"Well, Mrs. Blank, since you don't
know your age, I'll tell You. You

The lady looked surprised. I'll

with every word her anger increased.

PACK AgE. EnTRR9A1NMENTs
Five Superb Attractions Booked for the
Coming Season.

In announcing the Park Avenue en-
tertainments for the coming season
the com1nittee wishes to assure its
patrons thar the greatest care has been
used in the endeavor to secure in every
case a, tt orough1y first class attraction,
and it is in this belief in the integrity
of the talent as represented that it is
offered to the public with genuine
satisfaction.
The committee wishes it understood,
as last year, that, while heretofore the
course has paid for itself, there has
been each year such slight margin
above actual expenses that it can in no
sense be reg arded as a financial sue
cess, the amount of time and effort ex-
pended being altogether disproportion-
ate to the net receipts.
For the coming season the fine series
Of five entertainments has been secured
upon the condition that sufficient
mum Der of tickets be sold IN advance to
cover expenses, and being seven
hundred dollar course, the sale of at
least fouv hundred and fifty tickets
will be required.
In view of these statements, and be-
1ieving in the superior excellence of
the talent offered, the generous patron
age of the Kenosha public is requested
and expected.
The same method for securing tick
cts will be pursued as in previous
years, The town will be listed for the
required number of tickets, the money
for each being payable by October 1st.
The price per ticket, covering the en-
tire five numbers, will be $3.50, no
single tickets being sold.
The, course consists of three superb
musical combinations, a reader of
marked ability and a lecturer of ma
fame.
The Finest Gamble Concert Com
pany will be far and away the finest
musical combination that has yet ap-
peared in the Entertainment course,
comprising Ernest Gamble, basso;
Nine. Bailey, soprano; Ruth Ander-
son, vio1inist, and Edwin M. Shonert,
pianist They give a strong, popular
program, and render the songs in
Kings English, Pa fact which will
be appreciated.
The Ottumwa's Male Quartette in
c1udes as one of its number Geo. H.
lott. formerly a member of the famous
Schubert Quartette. The reader with
this company is Miss Addie Chase
Smith, of the Emerson school of
oratory.
The Katharine Ridgway Concert Co.
is not y .nown to some Kenosha peo-
pie and therefore scarcely needs an
outside recommendation. Katherine
Ridgway herself is widely known as a
reader of unusual power.
Of Miss Ida Bentley, the American
story teller, Bishop Vincent says:
''Your reading at Chautauqua was
wonderful. It permitted no breath of
adverse criticism. You feel what you
read. Come again. Bring your voice,
your pathos, your power and your self
forgetfu1ness.H After Elias Day last
winter the last vestige of prejudice
against one-person entertainment
must have vanished and it is believed
Miss Bentley will prove even d greater
success than Day.
AS to the qualifications of DIR. Frank
Bristol as lecturer, Kenosha is prob
ably aware. DR.. Bristol is at present
the pastor of the church which Presi-
dent Mckinley attends, and as pub
lie lecturer is strong in thought and
eloquent in delivery.

Miss Emmons Answers Imaginary Tel
ephone Calls.
| Bridgeport, Aug. 27.-Mlss Carrie A
Emmons, telephone operator who has
been employed by the Southern New
England Telephone company for sever
al years, is at her home No. 118 Beach
wood avenue. under the care of train
ed nurse.
She is suffering from nervous pros
tration, due, SO her physician, Dr. D. W.
ingalls,, says, to overwork. DR. ingalls,
says Miss Emmons will probably be
able to return to her duties in couple
of weeks. Miss Emmons is said to be
suffering from what is known as "tele-
phone nervousness" the result of long
continued work at the switchboard. 1t
is common for operators afflicted with
this trouble to start up suddenly from
sleep or thought and cry out: What
number, please?" Miss Emmons' case
is not serious, and she is free from the
Authorizations which sometimes accom-
pany the nervous trouble for awhile.
Miss Emmons Is a member of the
Methodist church at Bridgeport, and
was a near friend of Mrs. Griffen of
the same church, who recently commit
ted suicide.
