Kingston, Aug. 17.-A slightly more hopeful feeling now prevails among the planters regarding the disastrous situa- ton brought about by the recent hurri- cane. The work of clearing the banana plantations is proceeding and a great quantity of provisions can be saved. Eff forts are being made on all sides to re. trieve the disaster but thousands of the peasantry are still homeless.

sTUBEBAKER THEArER.

It used to be said of Chicago that
long theatrical runs were pretty apt to
prove extremely hazardous and unsat-
isfactory undertakings. Henry H.
Savage has done more than any other
manager to prove the fal1acy of this
contention. Practically all of his light
opera attractions have run through
long and singular1y successfully
careers at the Studebaker theater.
"King Dodo' on It's first hearing ran
twenty-one weeks and played a second
enga cement of FIVE weeks. s'The
Sultan of Sulu," George AIDES first
comic opera venture, prospered at the
Studebaker theater for eleven weeks,
and the ''Prince Of Pilsen" entertained
Chicago theater goers for ten weeks.
The nearest recordmaker in Mr.
Savage's list Of attractions is peggy
From Paris" Mr.. AIDES newest must
cal comedy, which is now ia it's tenth
week and has been drawing crowded
houses since it was first produced
There seems to be no limit to the
entertaining qualities of this new
piece. It is proving one of the most
popular attractions Mr.. Savage has
brought out and this is saying a good
deal when the successes achieved by
him are taken into account. Two of
his productions. 1.-THE Sultan of Sulu''
and the "Prince of Pilsen" are now
running with prosperity in New
York and have been pronounced the
hits of several seasons. Peggy

Special Services Held In All the Churches
III Honor of the Resurrection,
The festival of Easter was celebrated
with due ceremony in the churches of
Nenosha Sunday, and special services
were held in all the temples. Affairs
and shrines were brilliantly decorated
with lilies and spring flowers. ana
choirs furnished gladstone song to
hail the anniversary of the Resurrec-
ton. The anniversary drew to the
churches the largest congregations of
the year, and Notwithstanding the i'm
clement weather the annual beauty
show attracted almost as many audi
tors to the churches as the words of
the pastor and the singers.
The celebration of the day bepan ar
the Polish Catholic church, when at
half past four O'Clock in the morning
Resurrection mass was sung, and the
children of the parish carried out the
old Polish custom of marching about
the church. In the Catholic churches
special musical programs were rem
dered at all services.
Easter day marked the close of the
Lenten season, and today Kenosha so.
ciety has laid aside its sack cloth and
ashes, and is prepared for the busy
spring social season. The season will
be opened this evening, and MANY
dances are scheduled for the different
parts of the city. The annual dance
OF the knights of Pythias will be held
at Simmons hall, while the North Side
season will be opened with a grand
ball given by the Social Circle ia
honor of the opening of the new Pabst
theatre and dance hall. Other parties
OF minor interest are scheduled for the
other halls, and the town will be filled
with music and dancing tonight.
The social season now opening prom
Uses to be very busy one, and many
important events Of a social nature
have already been announced.

NEW HALL OPENED.
A Thousand People Attend the Opening
Dance at Pabst Theatre and Hall.

One of the greatest social events
ever known on the North Side was the
dance given Monday night by the So
cial Circle in honor of the opening of
the new Pabst hall and theatre at the
corner of North Main and Milwaukee
avenue. More than thousand people
frorn all parts of the city were guests
Of the hosts during the evening, and a
most sumptuous time was enjoyed.
The entire evening was given over to
dancing, splendid music being fur.
nished by Stemm Bros. orchestra of
ten pieces. Refreshments Of ice cream
and cake were served at midnight.
The new hall is one of the finest
dance halls in this section of the State,
and the fact that the hall is appre-
ciated by the people Of the North Side
is shown by the great crowd which
turned out to attend the opening fes-
tivities.

President of the KenOsha Electric
Railway Company Makes a Settle
ment With Special Committee.
TRANSFERS TO BE FURNISHED
Tenders for Cars and Repairs for Pavement
and streets.-New Car to be Secured at
Once to Improve the Service.

Bion J. Arnold, of the Kenosha
Electric Railway company, was in the
city Saturday evening to meet the
special committee appointed by the
City Council to look into the affairs of
the railway and demand certain i'm
provements in service, and as a result
of the conference Mr.. Arnold consent
ed to meet almost every demand made
by the committee representing the
Council.
President Arnold agreed to have
tenders placed on the cars at once. He
will start his men to work this week
on the repair of the pavement on Main
and Market streets, and as soon as
possible he will repair other streets
that have been damaged by the build
ing of the railway line. He will at
once furnish system of lights for the
Main street bridge. He will furnish a
system of transfers as soon as he can
secure another car to run on the line.
Mr.. Arnold declined to repair the side
walk on the south side of the Main
street bridge, claiming that this should
be done by the city. He declined to
straighten the tracks on Market street
near the county jail, but he will give
this request further consideration.
Mr.. Arnold met these requests of the
committee without argument stating
that it had always been the purpose
of the railway company TO provide for
the things asked for the good of the
company and the travelling public. He
stated that he was now negotiating
for the purchase of another car and as
soon as this could be secured 1t would
be possible for the company TO arrange
a proper system Of transfers. In the
mean time the black car will be run
over the entire line for the purpose of
fulfilling the franchise conditions to
the letter.
The system of transfers will be one
which will be fair to the company and
to the patrons of the line The trans
fers will be so issued that they will
make it possible for passengers to go
over the entire line but they will not
be allowed to use transfers for return
trip when going from one side OF the
city to another. The men will start
work on the repair of the Main street
pavement tomorrow andi will be COM
pleted within a few days. Mr.. Arnold
stated that he had supposed that this
work had been done some time ago as
it had been ordered. Tenders have
been purchased and would have been
put on this week. The tenders are the
same as are now used in the city of
Chicago.
With the changes promised by Mr..
Arnold the road will be operated
on the plan laid down in the franchise.
The settlement reached by the com
mittee was one highly satisfactory to
the committee as well as to the Presi-
dent of the road.
No further trouble is anticipated as
Mr.. Arnold has assured the committee
and the Council that it is his intention
to operate the line in strict keeping
with the franchise conditions and for
the best interest of both the patrons
and the company.

PICKED TEAM WINS.
Local Indoor Ball Players Defeat North
western Academy Team.

western Academy Team.
A picked team of Kenosha indoor
base ball players met the unbeaten
team from the Northwestern Military
academy, of Highland Park in the
gymnasium on Saturday night and
played the great game of the season.
After desperate struggle, In which
first one and then another team forged
ahead, Kenosha finally won the game
in the most brilliant sort of a finish.
The game was filled with plays of
first rank, the fielding on both sides
being good. Orman Yule made his
first appearance in the pitchers box
in Kenosha and made a strong i'm
preston, but the cadets support was
not strong enough to win out. The
battery for Kenosha was Blair and
Morse, and for the cadets Yule and
Meyer. The game by innings stood:

STORM DOES DAMAGE.
Fierce April Gale Cuts Kenosha off From
Connection with Outside World.

The April gale which passed over
Kenosha Monday night and today was
one of the worst ever known in the
city at this time of the year. Te1e-
phone and telegraph wires were torn
down by the winds and considerable
other damage was done. The lines of
the Bristol Telephone company are
down and it will probably be several
days before they are repaired. The
Chicago telephone lines were also
down and Kenosha was cut off from
the outside world for several hours to-
day.
La the city the wind blew gale and
tore down signs ard uprooted trees.
On Market street sign on the Meyers
block was blown down and it crashed
through one ofsthe big plate glass win
dows in the store occupied by the Wal
lace Harness company, doing a dam
age of seventy-fve dollars. Rain fol-
lowed the wind throughout the county
and the roads outside the city are pos
itively impossible.
The weather man predicts that the
storm will continue throughout the
day, but it will be followed by fair and
warmer weather later in the week.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1903-04-16

it is to be shoped that this tragedy will
be sufficient reason for its being
closed.
Brown was formerly of Elroy, Wis.,,
but he has been employed at the Balm
wagon works for the last two weeks.
He claimed today that he knew abso-
lutely nothing of the shooting. Cal
vim Stewart has been employed to de-
fend him.
DR.. Kimbal1 reports this afternoon
that the two injured men are resting
as well as could be expected. Brown
will have hearing late in the after
noon.

BROWN CASE CONTINUED.
Bond for the Man Charged with Shooting
at the Corners Placed at $4,000.

Bond for the man Charged WIN SnOoGlng
at the Corners" Placed at $4,000.
Alvin Brown, who was arrested Sun
day evening by Chief Reinold on a
charge Of shooting Fred VanDusen
and Joseph VanEst at the -Four
Corners" was arraigned in Justice
McCarron's court late Monday after
noon. Attorney Calvin Stewart who
appeared for the defense asked that
the case be continued for ten days, and
the continuance was granted. Brown
was held in bonds of two thousand
dollars. He was remanded to jail, not
being willing to furnish the bonds.
The two wounded men are improv-
ing, and there seems to be every rea-
son to believe that both of them will
survive. Both will probably bear the
marks Of the conflict through life, and
will be crippled. Brown still insists
that he has no knowledge of the shoot
ing, but he seems to be perfectly
rational. The statements made by
Brown on entering the resort Sunday
noon seem to indicate that he was
1aboring under an ha1lucination that
he was great detective, and it is pos
sible that this fact will aid the defense
in esta blishing the insanity of the
prisoner.
