Kenosha Athletics Defeat Their Old
Rivals in Splendid Game on
Labor Day.
THE CHICAGO GRAYS ALSO DROP.
Kenosha Boys Win the Game on Sunday
From the Chicago Team by Score
Nine to One.

The Kenosha Athletics won back
their prestige with the fans of Keno
sha Monday afternoon when after a
memorable struggle on the diamond
the Kenosha team defeated their old
rivals, the Port Washington players,
by score of six to four. It was the
Labor Day game and crowd of over
thousand people filled the bleachers
and grand stand and rooted loyalty for
the success of the home team.
There was one reason that the Ke-
nosha team especially desired to win
that Jacobsen, who was formerly the
star pitcher of the Athletics, was in
the box for the Ports. The one fact
that the Kenosha boys made Jacobsen
look like thirty cents in one inning
was sufficient to make the fans rush
home filled with Joy and pure delight.
Jacobsen pitched good game, but
in the "fatal seventh" inning the Ke-
nosha hitters fell upon him and
slaughtered him. Hug, who was in
IAC IVA AOA AAOAOSAo PANNhS0 q 6OO0
strong game and whilethe Port Wash
ington players managed to get ten hits
they were scattered sufficiently to pre-
vent their making runs.
Kenosha started the hitting in the
second when hit by Hug and base
on balls, the generous gift of Jacob
sen, coupled with an error for the
Ports, allowed Kenosha run. In the
third another was added on a base on
balls and three Dagger from the bat
of Breen. This put Kenosha two to
the good, but in the fifth another was
added on two base hit by Snelle and
an error on the part of the visitors.
In the sixth Port Washington began
to get into the game and tied the score.
Two doubles and two singles were
worth three runs. In the seventh the
Kenosha boys broke the tie and an
nexed three more runs on singles by
Drews and Burton and a hot double by
Breen. This practically ended the
game and in the remaining inning
the Kenosha team was BANKED. The
Ports made hard effort to win out n
the ninth but they only managed to
get one man across the plate and the
game ended with score of six to four.
The score follows.

Frank kuth. an Italian Fires Four Shots a
Pedestrians In Fit of Anger.
There was excitement a plenty out
on Rowland avenue last Sunday night
when Frank Kuth, an Italian residing
in the district, got on a rampage and
before his desire for excitement was
appeased he had fired four shots at
passing pedestrians and number of
people narrowly escaped injury.
The one man who seems to have
beSp target for Kuth's revolver was
Ole Nelson, delivery clerk employed
at the Lentz & Funk store. Nelson
was walking along the street with a
friend and meeting Kuth he spoke to
him. kuth never said word, but GO
ing into his house he secured a revol-
yer and began firing. Two shots
we're fired in rapid succession but both
went wild of their intended mark and
Nelson was not injured. Kuth hid be-
hind the door and when no one re-
turned the fire he reached out of the
door and fired two more shots. One of
the shots entered house near by and
the residents of the house became
frightened and called the police.
Officers OHare and Link hurried to
the scene of the shooting and the
Italian desperate was landed in Jail.
He was released later on deposit of
twenty-five dollars as bonds. This
morning he had hearing before JUS
tice McCarron and as it was impossible
to prove that the shots were fired at
Nelson the man was fined three dollars
and costs for firing a revolver within
the city limits. He paid the fine.

Defeat for the Grays.

On Sunday afternoon, before large
crowd, the Athletics took an easy
game from the Jefferson Grays, of
Chicago, by score of nine to one.
The game put up by the local team on
Sunday was one of the prettiest ever
seen in Kenosha, and it certainly was
too fast game for the Grays to have
even hoped for victory. Drews pitched
a very creditab1e game for the Ath
letics, striking out seven men and al
lowing only five hits. Koukalic, who
pitched for the Chicago team, was
weak and the Kenosha batters sent
the ball flying all over the diamond.

follows:

Mrs. Roosevelt gathered a posy Of

consequence Of this II Is proposed that
the revenue be raised by a tax levied.
not on gross returns. but upon the net
profits.
Other steps are being taken beyond
this. favorable to the mine owners and
workers in various ways which will
cause them to regard the change Of
government favorably.
The idea Of the entire taxation
scheme seems to be that individual
enterprise should be fostered and the
poorer miners not be made to bear an
undue financial burden. To this end
the tax should be levied not on gross
returns, but upon net profits. The
proposition Is that steps be taken to
benefit mine owners and mine workers
In such way that they shall be finan-
cially benefited. Important features
Of the new regulations are: The aboli-
ton Of transit dues upon goods brought
through the southern colonies. an
equitable adjustment of colonial rail-
way rates. a reduction of the excessive
lands railway. which is the short cut
to Delagoa bay and the sweeping aside

might almost imagine here that we are
the center Of the promised land and
that a new Canaan had been born
born within the borders Of the new
century. The long promised boom has
come and 1t would seem that railroads
and everything in the way of develop
ment could not be provided fast
enough for new requirements.
Every steamship, from whatever
quarter of the globe 1t halls, seems to
bring us immigrants-many Of them
apparently people Of substance who
seem to believe that since peace has
been declared there is wonderful fut-
ure ahead for South Africa.
That they are not deluded seems
probable as the activity which is ap-
parent at the mines indicates an un-
precedented era Of prosperity for the
Transvaal.

new formation of things, the incoming
element being very little interested In

seeking new outlets for enterprise such
as are looked for generally in new
countries.
The policy Of the government seems
to meet favor on all sides and 1t looks
extremely doubtful If the few kick
ers" would be able to maintain their
ground in face Of a general prosperity.
The most disgruntled people Of all
are the stockholders in the Rand
mines who expected that after all the
fight was accomplished they would be
able to reap an enormous harvest, ex-
clusively to their own benefit.
That this Is not to be 80 seems ap-
parent from the new system Of tax

gains In profits the mines viii benefit
from the utilization of low grade ore
which will now be rendered available
for exploitation.
II is evident from these figures that
the new tax Of ten per cent upon ne;
profits can really be increased for the
general benefit IL necessary and that
the Transvaal can bear the taxable
burden of the entire confederation IL
necessary with profit to itself and a
general amelioration of conditions all
round.
In fact it seems impossible to sug-
gest that the new system will not bene-
fit the many and result In a largely in
creased sphere of prosperity for all
residentials In the colonies.
