ANoTEHR swINDLER's GAME.

Man Takes Subscriptions for New York
Fashion Journals They Eai. to Come.
The women of Kenosha have again
been worked by the smooth talk of the
swindler, and half a hundred ladies are
eagerly awaiting the arrival Of maya.
zines for which the subscription is
paid for over year. It is unneces.
sary to state that the magazines will
never arrive.
1t was the same old story of the man
who offered something for nothing,
and of course he couldn't give it but
he managed to get it from the people
The ladies were asked to pay eighty
cents for a yearly subscription to q
fashion magazine which is supplied in
Kenosha at dollar. Added to this
reduction in price the ladies were al
to receive little gift Of jewelry, the
gift to be anything from diamond
ring to hair pin. 1t was pretty
gamble and the ladies we're taken in.
Not single paper and not one piece
of jewelry has arrived after two
months of waiting, and the ladies have
just discovered that the agent pocketed
the money, and never turned in a
name to the publishing house.

Bristol Company Announces That It
viii Sign a Contract With the
Citizens Company.
TO SIGN CONTRACTS THURSDAY
Action of the Kenosha Telephone Company
Decides the Position to Be Taken by
the Bristol Company.

The telephone fight in Henosha
county is over for the present time for
Tuesday afternoon after a conference
with the leaders of the Citizens com
pany and the Kenosha Telephone COM
pany the managers of the Bristol COM
pany announced their intention OF ac-
cepting the proposition that had been
made to the company by the Citizens
Telephone & Telegraph company.
The contracts between the two com
panies will be signed tomorrow and the
rural lines will be added to the Citi-
zens' circuit when the phones are
opened for the use of the people of the
city. AT the starting of the fight be
tween the different companies the
Bristol company announced that it
would be bound by the action Of the
Kenosha Telephone company. AS soon
as the managers of the Bristol com
pany were notified Tuesday that the
Citizens company had secured the
control of the little Kenosha line the
managers stated that they were ready
to sign contract.
The contract between the Bristol
and Citizens company is similar to
the contract made between the Wis
consin and Pleasant Prairie companies.
It is for long time period and by the
terms of it the rural 'phone users are
to be allowed the use of the lines of the
Citizens company without any toll
charge while small tollwill be charged
from the Kenosha to the Bristol ex-
change. Thee will be no change Of
instruments on the Bristol line.
The Kenosha Independent company
makes it part of the agreement that
during the life of the contract between
the two companies the Kenosha com
pany will make no effert to invade that
territory now covered by the Bristol
company and that all the business
from that section of the county will be
turned into the village exchange. This
is all that is demanded by the Bristol
company but for long time the Citi.
zens' company declined to sign any
contract which would limit the rights
OF the company IN extending their
lines. The mem bers of the Kenosha
Telephone company will meet this
evening and sign the contracts for the
sale Of the line TO the Independent
company.
The action of the Bristol and Keno
sha companies leaves the Pleasant
Prairie company unconnected with the
rural lines in the county and there il
little doubt but that the Wisconsin,
company will now build net work OF
exchanges which will reach to every
village in the county. Plans for this
line of 'phones have already been
made and are now in the hands of the
Kenosha manager pending the arrival
of spring weather. In another six
months Kenosha county will have the
best organized system of rural phones
to be found in the state.

THE MYSTERY OF A BOTTLE.

Employees of the City Find Bottle of Cham
payne Buried Under Middle Street Bridge
There is considerable mystery con
nected with bottle of champagne
which is being kept in bondage at the
city, hall pending the arrival Of some
one who can prove ownership. The
bottle was found buried deep in the
ground under the Middle Street bridge.
1t had evidently been buried for years
and the wrappings of the bottle were
old and musty, but the wine seems to
be of rare flavor. There is contest as
to the ownership of the wine John
Gustaffen, who found it, claiming it by
right of discovery, while the city ofic
ials claim that the fact that it was
found on city ground was enough to
award the ownership to the officials.
It will be opened at the christening OF
the new city hall.
