Sailors From Training Ship "Doro-
thea Get Into the Hands Of the
Police in KenOsha.
THEY TRIED TO STORM THE TOWN
Ship Comes Into Kenosha For the Night
and the Sailor Boys Take Vacation
Which Proved Disastrous.

The United States training ship
"Dorothea" came into Xenosha
Thursday evening for the night and it
is probable that the visit to the Park
City will not soon be forgotten by some
of the members of the crew, for on &C
count of the depredations committed
by them in the city four of the mem
bers of the crew were arrested by the
city police and when turned over to
the officers of the ship they we're
thrown into irons to repent of their
rowdyism.
The "Dorothea" now has more than
sixty cadets on board and she has been
cruising about the lakes to give the
men some practice in the arts of war
fare. Thursday morning she came
to anchor near the camp ground four
miles south of the city and the men
were given their land practice on the
grounds used for several years by the
soldiers of Ft. Sheridan. When the
maneuvers of the day were over the
ship was sailed into the Kenosha har-
Dor for the night and as soon as she
touched the docks the sailors from the
officers to the cadets were given land
leave and they started out to see Ke-
nosha.
The sailors of the "Dorothea" are
not new corners to Kenosha and in
short time they were having jolly
reunion with their friends about the
city. The reunion got boisterous and
the sailors concluded that Kenosha
was very small town and the feeling
of conquest and victory became so
strong with them that they decided to
storm the town. They went about the
city yelling like band of Commanche
Indians, and while they were not do
ing any particular damage the peace
and quiet of the residents of Kenosha
was terribly shocked by the bowling,
hooting mob.
At last they stormed Main street
bridge. The bell began ringing and
the police hurried to the bridge to see
what was the matter. They found
that the sailors had attempted to turn
the bridge but it being locked they had
to be satisfied with leaving the bridge
lever to bar the way for teams. The
police then began the storming act
and four of the sailors were placed
under arrest. Being members of the
United States navy the men were
turned over to the officer of the day
who kept them from going to jail and
put them in irons on ship board.
The "Dorothea" and her crew will
remain cruising about Kenosha for
several days. They will practice on
the rifle range today and put into Ra-
cine this evening.

New Organization Give Splendid Entertain
ment at German Lutheran Hall.
One of the most enjoyable musical
events of the season was the concert
by the Philharmonic orchestra under
the able direction OF Mr.. F. r. Jacoby,
which was given at the German Luth-
eran Hall Wednesday evening. The
concert proved to be a very delightful
and successful affair. The program
was arranged in two parts and was
composed of most desirable selections.
Each number was most enthusiastic
ally received, the plaudits of the audi
ence evidencing their full apprecia-
ton. The so1oists we're Mr.. Chas.
Kel1man, flute; Mr.. VIM. E. Dreyer,
clarinet; Mr.. F. r. Jacoby, violin;
Mrs. Shultz and Miss Gertrude Lake,
accompanies.
Mr.. Chas. Kellman rendered his pic
colo solo, "Skylarks," in most pleas
ing manner and responded to nrmer-
Gus encores. Mr.. Dreyer performed
(Noltes) fantasia on "O1d Folks at
Home with marked ability and was
repeatedly encored. Mr.. Jaceby's
playing captivated the audience, his
selections being executed with re-
marka bic skill and expression.
The choirs Lyra and Concordia un-
der the careful direction of Prof.
Waltz, sang in their usual entertain
ing manner. The Philharmonic or
chestra is new and permanent or
ganization, consisting of twenty-five
leading local instrumentalists. The
city can justly be proud of it's new ac-

"FLORODORA +"
Successful Musical Comedy Still at the Ill
inois Theatre Chicago.

Successful Musical Comedy Still at the ILL
inois Theatre Chicago.
Chicago is in the throes of the
"Florodora" craze which held New
York City captive for a year and a
half. The English musical comedy
opened at the Illinois Theatre May II,
and ever since then when there have
been any complaints from the man
agement they concerned the lack of
accommodations, which have made it
necessary to turn people away almost
every night. In all Chicago's history
there has been nothing offered at any
of the p1ayhouses which seemed to
meet with such universal appreciation
as this harmonious combination of
tunefu1 music and clean comedy.
"Florodora" is filled to rep1etion
with music that possesses catchiness
and originality which makes it de-
light, even after one has heard it
many times, and it is claimed by the
management that eighty per cent. of
the people who were in attendance
the opening weeks have made numer-
Gus visits to the theatre since then.
To enumerate the features which have
given "F1orodora" eminence as the
most successful musical comedy that
has been offered in this country would
simply mean the publication of the
entire list of two dozen fascinating
compositions and exhaustive reference
to it's charms from the standpoint of
bright comedy, the superlative merit
of the cast and the splendor of the
equipment represented in scenery and
costumes.
That the "Florodora' management
is liberal one is attested by the fact
that there has been no curtailment of
the immense organization which was
brought to Chicago after the phenome.
nal New York run. There are still
one hundred people employed in the
production, irrespective of the orches.
ira of twenty-five men, and it is con.
ceded on all sides to be the most eff
fcient and best balanced company
which has ever invaded the west. In
the past week Miss Isadore Rush, a
pronounced favorite with western au'
diences, made her appearance as Lady
Ho1yrood, and instantly demonstrated
that clever as she was in straight
comedy, musical plays are her forte.
Maude Lambert is another acquisition
to the company. Miss Lambert was a
leading member of the Castle Square
Opera Company for upward of year,
and her presence in the "F'lorodora'
ranks wilt be hailed with expressions
of satisfaction by those who remember
her well-merited success during hei
previous engagement in Chicago. She
will make her first appearance with
the company week of June Goth.

SECURES A DIVORCE.
Mrs. Elizabeth Chapman BuhI Stevens. Is
Separated From Her Husband.


A special term of the Circuit court
was held at the court house this morn
ing with Judge Be1den on the bench.
The most important business of the
term was the grant of decree of alb
so1ute divorce to Mrs. Elizabeth Chip
man Bull Stevens from her husband,
George w. Stevens, of Cambridge,
Mass.
The case will be of considerable in
terest in Kenosha as the plaintiff
is we'll known in Kenosha society.
For the past year she has made her
home at the Pennoyer Sanitarium and
at the Eichelman hotel. There was no
defense in the case the wife alleging
failure to support and the husband
making no counter claim or answer to
the summons. Mrs. Stevens was
given the right to take her for,uer
name of Elizabeth Chapman Buhl. No
alimony was asked for in the case and
none was allowed.
The separation of Mr.. and Mrs.
Stevens will probably cause quite a
little interest in Detroit and other
cities where the parties to the action
are well known. The plaintiff in the
action is daughter of Judge Chapman
and has for some time been one of the
best known society ladies of Detroit.

PUT UP SIGNS.

Jokers.rEake Sport of the Muddy Condition
of Market Square.
Pedestrians walking along Market
Square today saw many strange sights.
For several weeks the street has been
in a very muddy condition and in
front of the city hall and the adjoin-
ing property the mud holes have
grown until they have assumed the
dignity of lakes. This morning some
practical joker went out into the lakes
and put up such signs as "Private
Lake" "No Fishing Here" mo Net
Fishing"
These signs attracted great deal of
attention among passers by. The city
should take some steps to have this
portion of the square drained, or, bet
ter still, some effort should be made to
have it paved.

BATHROOM MUSINGS.

Did you ever reflect on the detrimen-
tai influence of the bathroom, the dis
puted ground Of every household? 1t
probably causes more family ruptures,
more irritability and profanity than
ANYTHING else to be met with in an or
binary life.
The time is ripe, says a writer In
the Philadelphia Times, for an anti
bathroom crusade. The millennium
would follow a successful outcome.
Have you ever risen early with
temper as mild as a newborn babe,
to find, although 1t is known you are
in haste to catch a train, or to go down
town, that some one is-"already in the
bathroom" Has not your body suf-
fused with righteous indignation?
Have you not ratified the doorknob in
an insinuating way?
There are persons indigenous to the
bathroom, selfish individuals who
would hold this, their citadel, against
all corners. You may tiptoe down the
hall in the hope of surreptitiously slid
ing into the bathroom, and behind it's
locked door grin pityingly at outbursts
of disappointment; but before you
reach 1t some one glides out Of room
in proximity and slams the door in
your face.

ganatic wife, nee Miss Eb-
ba Munck). whose romantic
marriage took place at Bournemouth.
The Countess Wisborg, who was form

happy hours and contentrnent have
served to while away many weary

fond of his beautiful cousin and who
knew of her deep love for the sea.
