A Pleasant Dinner Party

James Shirley and Wm. Wander bilt entertained about a score of their friends at dinner last evening in the large private dining room of Hotel Burke. The menu was very elaborate and was certainly very creditable to those in charge of the culinary department of the hotel. The guests were representative citi- zens of Prescott and the affair was a very enjoyable one to all present. While the dinner was informal, toasts were offered to the hosts by Judge J. J. Hawkins, which was responded to very felieitously.
 Messrs. Shirley and Vanderbilt, while old time residents of Prescott, have been absent for number of years, and have received a most cor dial welcome ca their return this time. They will leave in day ol two again for New York, where they are engaged in working up mann moth deal for a property in Alaska which involves the opening up of al immense copper property, the build ing of a railroad and also the build ing of town.

THEATRICAL NEWS,

| In no branch of the theatrical bust
ness has so much progress been made
as in the department of the scene
painter and stage carpenter. They
work IN harmony and nothing now
seems impossible to them. When one
reflects that even in Shakespeare's day
signs were hung out Announcing,
"This is the forest of Arden" nd the
like, and then look upon such gorgeous
stage illusions as those which will be
seen in "Way Down East at the
Rhode opera house on Monday, Dec. s,
the advance from then until now seems
marvellous.
One of the chief effects in SWAY
Down East" is an illusion in the first
act. It shows the country about the
house of Squire Bartlett. Apparently
the spectator can see the landscape for
miles, not only in the background,
which is common, but also on each
side. The country depicted is rolling,
and there is an atmosphere and gen.
eral effect in the scene which is most
realistic and convincing. AS the day
fades into the red of sunset and even
ing comes stealing over all, and the
berry pickers "Song of Twilight" is
heard across the fields, the first act
closes with apparent peace and happi-
ness for all.

WILL REPORT FAVORABLY.

Business Men Get a Large Amount of Fav-
orable Matter on Second Phone Line.
The Business Mems Association will
meet in adjourned session at the Y. M.
c. A, auditorium this evening for the
purpose of hearing the report of the
special committee appointed to inves
tigate the feeling Of the people Of the
city in regard to second telephone
system in the city.
The committee will make a most
favorable report on the matter, and
Chairman Buckmaster in speaking of
the matter stated today that hardly a
single unfavora bic comment had been
received. The mbers of the com
mittee have sent out a communication
to every city in the State, asking in
regard to the success of independent
phone systems, and each reply las
been favorable one. Every one of
the companies has proved a paying in
vestment, and in many of the cities
the dividends have been exceedingly
large.
At the meeting this evening final
action on the matter will be taken.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1902-12-04
Superintendent Norman |. Baker Will
Propose an Amendment to the
Telephone Ordinance.
SYSTEM IS soRELY NEEDED
Connection of Schools of the City Would
Greatly Facilitate the Work of Superin-
tendent and Principal.

The telephone agitation which has
been dormant for the past week, has
come to life again and it has even in
vaded the schools, and at the next
meeting of the common council before
any action is taken on the ordinance
now pending before the council Sup
erintendent Baker will appear before
the council and ask that one of the
terms under which the franchise is
given shall be the consent of the com
pany to place instruments in each of
the school buildings of the city.
Kenosha schools have never had the
benefit of phone connection on account
of the cost of the putting in of the diff
ferent systems, but the Superintend-
ent hopes to have this matter adjusted
by lacking an amendment to the pres
ent ordinance, which amendment will
provide for the placing Of phone in
each school free of charge.
With the growth of Kenosha and
the increase of the number of school
buildings in the city the work of the
Principal has been so increased that
tits now impossible for him to make a
daily visit to every building, and with
the telephone connection he could
keep in touch with these distant build
ings without leaving his office.
Of course it is possible that the in
stallation of such system would re-
suit in many abuses by teachers and
pupils, but the plan would be to have
system built expressly for the schools
and not open for the use of the general
public. In this way all messages
would have to pass through central
switch board in the office of the Prin.
cipal, and any effort to abuse the priv
ileges offered by either teachers OF
students could be promptly stopped.
The company now seeking fran
chise is offering to furnish free phones
| forithe various city Offices and the
mem ers of the council have seen fl
to ask that phone be furnished by
the company for each city official
| Should the schools be added to this
list the free list would be almost as
long as the free list Of a newspaper
and in short time all the profits Of
the company would be eaten ur
by free phones. However, it is prob
able that the phones in the, schools
would be of much greater value to the
public in general than phones in the
homes of the different city officials.

Northeast Storm OF Tuesday Evening
Does Great Damage to Break
waters About KenOsha.
yATER FRONT IS. SUBMERGED
Great Waves Break Over the Pilings and
Tear OFF the Sheeting storm the
Worst in Many Years.

With shrek and roar the wind
came down racing from the northeast
Tuesday night and brought down up
on Kenosha the first storm of the win
ter, The weather bureau had sent
out the warning in advance warning
vessels to keep to their harbors and
humanity to keep out of the
storm which was destined to be the
worst Of the year. Kenosha streets
we're deserted at six O'Clock in the
evening and the storm cast its spell
over the town. The snow which came
scurrying along in the wake of the
driving wind began to fall just after
six O'Clock and it continued until after
the morning sun had in measure
chased away the clouds.
The storm on the lake was one Of
the worst in its history and the wind
reached frightfu1 velocity, beating
the water into foamy waves which
dashed over the breakwaters and
docks.
The wind and the waves combined
in the work of ruin and considera BILE
damage is reported all along the lake.
No vessels are reported lost and most
of them remained in port. "The Brit
tanic, big coal barge, was the only
vessel in the local port and she Rugged
her docks during the night, and even
then the head sea coming into the har-
Dor forced her to beat considerable.
The greater part of the protection IN
the harbor stood the fury Of the waves
with little damage, but the old land
marks which have been buffeted for
years gave way and were carried out
by the storm. The old Calkins pier,
which has been fast decaying for the
past three or four years, finally capitu-
lated to the storm and all that remains
OF it today are four big piles which
stand sentinel like over the ruins of
the pier. All the rest of the work was
carried away by the first attack Of the
waves. All along the water front
more or less damage is apparent, but
none Of the damage is serious.
In the harbor slip the OLD S;mmon >
dock, which had been rapidly going
to pieces, was hard hit and all the old
patch work which had been done to
hold the dock together, was carried
away. It will probably be necessary
to rebuild the dock. Rushing over the
broken docks the water undermined
the railway tracks leading to the Sim
mons factory, and this morning a
large force of men were at work re-
pairing the tracks.
The storm had partially subsidized by
noon today, but it is expected that it
will return with all its fury this even
ing. Colder weather is promised to
follow the storm.
