THE BROKE BRIGADE.

Have you met with the boys OF the "broke
brigade"
That drift DER the land and the sea?
They have left behind all the ties that bind
And are wandering fancy free;
They're a venturesome band are the bold, bad
Constituencies, unafraid
But they're stout of heart and they'll bear
their part,
The boys of the broke brigade"
They had to fly, for the we'll ran dry
And the land Of their birth was small,
Not word did they say, but they vanished
away
From sweetheart and mother and all;
What is the use when the game is up,
And the sign hangs out "Go Slow
To sell in lifes pool as honor's fool?
Pack up your traps and 60
So they headed the nose of their fortunes
bark
To the Cape and the Golden West,
And little cared they SO they got away
From the land that they loved the best;
From thenceforth they lived as they wouldn t
care tell
There are things that must never be spoke,
But life was a double-dyed gamble to them,
And death was capital joke.
They roughed it in camps where mems talk
was 'gold,''
They tramped by the forest track,
And they met old friends from the empire S
ends
Pals of the old ay-back;
And some went down to the sea in ships
And gained whatsthey could not buy
The calmsand rest of the oceans breast,
And the freedom OF the sky.
And ever we meet them the worlds breadth
Ger
Brothers by bond are we,
lowered at birth with the great, green earth,
Heirs of the open sea;
Gladly we welcome them hand to hand,
And if at the Pole or the Line,
Empty glass Ger along we pass
To the memory of auld lang syne.
Scholar and barkeeper, poacher and priest
Shorty" the Honorable Jack
The best and the worst by their lifes luck
cursed.
Stunning the beaten track
Awaiting the lot of EN-, money from home
Some till their last card is played,
But whatever comes, the same jolly old chums
Boys of the broke brigade. +"

A. G. Wright & Co., of Milwaukee, to Issue
a Directory of the City and County.
The representatives of the A. G..
Wright Directory company, of Mil
waukee, are in Kenosha city and
county preparing for the issue of new
directory of Kenosha city and county
which will be issued early in Decem-
Der. The directory is planned as the
successor of the Smith directory,
issued years ago, which was the first
good directory of the county ever
issued. The work of collecting the
names is being done in the most sys-
tematic manner and although the
Milwaukee company issued directory
of the city two years ago the names
are being secured from original sources
so as to allow no omissions.
Beside the list of names included
the book will contain short history
of the smaller towns in the county,
together with list of the residents of
each town. 1t will also contain the
list Of farmers and each man will be
so marked as to show whether he is a
renter or land owner.
In case of land owners the number
of acres and the location of3the farm
will be given. The book will fill long
felt want.

Republicans OF Kenosha County Ask
the President to Make a Snort
Stop in Kenosha.
AND sPOONER's AID is SOUGHT.
President Roosevelt and Party Will Prob
ably Pass Through Kenosha Twice in
the Next Three Weaks.-The Party.

The Republicans of kenosna county
through County Chairman A. E. Buck
master, have extended an Invitation to
President Theodore Roosevelt to make
a short stop in Keuosha during his
Northwestern trip, on which he started
today. President Roosevelt is sched-
uled to arrive in Milwaukee on next
Wednesday, but as he will pass through
Kenosha very early in the morning an
effort will be made to have him stop
here on his return trip early in Octo-
Der.
During his visit IN the West Presi-
dent Roosevelt will make short stop
with United States Senator John c..
Spooner, who is now a his home in
Madison, and Attorney Buckmaster
went to Madison this afternoon to ask
Senator Spooner to urge the accept
ance of the invitation extended by the
Kenosha people to the President. The
itinerary of the President after his visit
70 Minneapolis aud S.. Paul, is I'M
decided, and it is hoped that he will re.
turn to Chicago over the North West
ern road and find time to stop few
moments in Kenosha.
President Roosevelt has never been
seen in Kenosha. Almost every other
President of the United States has
made some sort of an address to the
people of the city since the days of
Abraham Lincoln. Two years ago
President Mckinley made short stop
at Kenosna, and FIVE thousand people
gathered at the station to greet him.
President Roosevelt is very popular
with the people of the county and even
larger crowd may be expected if he
decides to stop here.
The party with which the President
is travelling will leave Jersey City on a
special train this evening and stops
will be made at different parts of the
Central States during the next few
days. He will give an entire day to
Milwaukee, arriving there in the early
morning of Sept. "a, and leaving at
midnight for St. Paul and Minneapo-
lis. The party with the President will
consist of the President, Secretar-
Shaw, Secretary Moody and Secretary
Wilson (a11 three men may not be in
the party all the time) Secretary Cor

Children From st. Mary's Home Re-
turn to Their Homes in Chicago
After Merry Summer.
LAST DAY AN OUTING FOR THEM.
Mrs. f. s. Robinson Entertains the Children
atlHer Orchard In Pleasant Prairie in
Way Long to Be Remembered.

st. Mary's Home for Children down
on the lake shore near Kemper Hall is
deserted this evening for this after
noon the happy children who have
been spending the summer in Kenosha
were bundled into a special car and
sent back to Chicago for the winter.
The season just closed has been the
most successful in the history Of the
home and the people who have taken an
especial interest in the work have
every reason to feel proud of the
splendid entertainment and care given
the little children during their four
months outing in the country. All the
children return to their humble homes
in the best of health after a summer of
good air and good food. Many of the
children will spend the winter IN the
home Of the sisters in Chicago, while
the others will return to their homes,
bearing with them the memories of life
at Kenosha and the splendid hospital
ity of the Sisters of St. Mary.
The last day Of the childrens' stay in
Kenosha will long remain ia their
memories as the brightest, merriest
day of the summers holiday. For
some time Mrs. F. S. Robinson, of
Pleasant Prairie, has been planning to
entertain the children IN her big
orchard, aud fir weather favored the
children on the day selected for the
trip. Yesterday morning Liverynan
Kupfer donated the use Of a number of
large busses and the children stormed
the orchard OF Mrs. Robinson. The
day was spent under the trees and
every thing was done to make the day
pleasant one.
Late in the evening the children re-
turned home with their pockets filled
with the ripe, 1ucious fruit to carry
nome to their brothers and sisters in
Chicago.
With the departure of the children
from Kenosha the sisters have begun
to plan for the coming year, and if
jossible funds will be raised during
he winter to provide for an enlarge
eut of the home in Kenosha. The
loyal support that has been given to
the home in the past leads the sisters
Q believe that the request for funds
for the enlargement of the home will
meet with hearty response.
Later in the year a report of the
home will be sent out IN which ac-
acknowledgement will be made of gifts
received during the year.

HACK PARTY'S
ADVENTURE

\ party Of ladies and gentlemen who
left this city in n twO-hOrse hack Sat
urday for a visit at farm house near
Eyersgrove met with an unfortunate
accident, which robbed the trip of a
great deal of its pleasure.
About two miles beyond Jerscytown
they came to small stream, the bridge
over which was being rebuilt, only the
new piers being completed. The driv-
cr, Frank Shellhammer, somehow learn
ed of this fact, also that he would have
to drive through the creek in crossing,
although the bridge was without a
light of any kind to warn of danger or
to show where to drive down into the
stream.
The hack was one of G. G. Moyer's $.
The driver, did the best he could un-
der the circumstances. No pains had
been taken to level down the bank to
the waters edge and it was next to
impossible to effect crossing in safety

deep ruts worn down by passing wag-
Ons, but as was quite natural the driv-
cr missed these in the darkness and the
hack upset.
The entire party was thrown out.
There was quite n scramble and eX-
citement with plenty of noise. No one
was injured, however, except the driv-
er, whose right leg was hurt by one OF
the horses and Mr.. Thomas Johns, who
sustained a spraincd wrist The box
and entire top of the hack was badly
wrecked.
The party, which had nearly reach
ed its destination, made the remainder
of the distance on foot When the
hour for returning arrived the hack
was found unfit for service \ couple
of the party, however, managed to
make the trip back to Danville with
the driver. The rest of the party re-
manned until Sunday when another
conveyance was secured.
The following persons were i'll the
party: Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas Johns,

CONFIRMED BY
THE j. s. COURT

The United States District Court,
at Philadelphia, has confirmed the
sale of the Danville Rolling Mill to
the re Organization trustees and the
matter will come up in the court to-
day for the final transfer on the part
of the trustees in bankruptcy to the
trustees of the plant of re-OrganiZa
tion. Under the conditions of the sale
forty five per cent of the purchase
money is to be paid over to the trust
ees in bankruptcy. This is likely to
bring about some action on the part
of the reorganization trustees to have
the mill, which has been shut down
for several weeks, resume operations.
The plant has been operated under
a lease from the organization trust
ees, which provided that it was to be
kept in operation. The recent shut
down was caused by the scarcity and
high prices of coal Whether or not
the mill will be run by the present
firm is not known, but it is Thought
that some plan will be submitted to-
day by the organization trustees
which will result in the plant being
started 1t is in good shape as new
rolls and squeezer" were put i'll but
few months ago. The furnaces are
also in condition to be fired up at
once.

day. With some companions she was
standing on the sidewalk of the river
bridge when her gold watch in some
way became detached from her cloth
ing and fell into the river, where the
water was at least ten feet deep. In
falling it struck the floor in such a
way rs to cause the case to fly open.
The river is yet too muddy to en-
able one to see the bottom so that
there Is no way Of telling whether
the watch may be recovered or not.
The current is quite strong at the
point where the watch fell in, and
as it flew open the probability is that
it was caught by the current and car
ried some distance
Miss Lobach feels her loss very keen
ly, as the watch was a present from
her father now deceased.
