try Uncle is devout man; a pillar
Of the church and a breeder Of fine
horses. And upon certain pretty colt

were converted into lakes and rivers,
the sewers being inadequate to carry
off the great dow of water. The city
engineer and his force of men kept a
close watch on the trunk sewer on
Monday night fearing a recurrence of
the floods on account of the sewer over
flowing at the Jerome Creek entrance.
A great amount of water came down
the bed of the creek and the engineer
and his men went out on Monday night
and cleared away the refuse from the
opening of the sewer. This permitted
al the water to find It's way to the lake
and there was no Overlooking. A close
watch is being kept on the sewer to-
day and it is not thought that there
will be any trouble as in other years
No reports of serious damage from
lightning have been received from this
county, but telephone service to the
west is badly interferred with and it
will probably be another day before
connections are re-estabIished with the
outlying towns The telephone company
was pretty hard hit by the wind and
lightning. More than one hundred and
fifty stations in the city We're report

declared that the farmer lines were in
bad shape. The long distance lines
were not put out of commission by the
storm. The company was fortunate in
that but three small cables was dis
abled by the lightning.
Monday night was a bitter night for
the men who sail the lake in ships
The steamers Of both the Hill Boat
Company and the Pere Marquette Com
pany made their regular runs from
Chicago and Milwaukee reaching port
here early this morning after a hard
fight against the waves and the storm
1t was reported at the offices of both
companies that the steamers would go
out again today. The smaller fishing
craft remained in the harbor today, the
crews fearing to tempt the storm beat

No report of any vessel being missing

Wednesday. The government weather
forecasters declare that there is no in

The fury of the storm on the lake
was terrific Monday night and a lot
of damage was done along the water
front. The sea poured into the Keno
sha river and people along Lake
avenue were forced to rescue their
chicken houses and young chickens
from the rising waters. At some plac )
the water got so high that they wash

lars Filled With Water Received
Telephone Service Hit by the Storm.

Old Lake Michigan sighted Keno
sha on Monday afternoon while from
all along the west shore of the lake
reports of tidal waves were sent in
there was no tidal wave in Kenosha.
The big wave struck the other lake
ports just after five O'Clock Monday
afternoon and in some places the water
In the harbors suddenly rose to a
heighth of fifteen feet. There was
only a slight raise of the water in the
Kenosha harbor and it was not suf-
ficient to do any damage. In the Ra-
cine harbor tug boats were beached
and in Milwaukee great steamers
broke from their mornings while docks
were swept clean by the sudden rise of
the water. Marine men are unable to
account for the failure of Kenosha to
be struck by the tidal wave the same
as other lake shore cities
This was the only feature of the
great May storm that passed Kenosha.
Torrents of rain fell in the city on
Monday and Monday night and humid
reds of reports of flooded cellars and
flooded streets have been received by
the officials. The low lands to the west
Of the city are covered with water and

Senator Thomas said that
war with Mexico would be no
holiday affair" He declared
that he wished congress had
power to force the Owners of
newspapers. the editors and the
men who, have been crying for
war" to go to the front in place
of privates in the army. He
said the United States should
make known to the world that it
has no desire to acquire Mexican
territory.

not want but will not take any

As Others Sec Us.

Some people do not appreciate
the efforts of an editor to build
up his home community, and
have little thought as to the a
mount of service rendered.
But the candidates for Office
are keen to appreciate a papers
effort in their behalf and one of
them in writing the editor of
this paper says: They write us
up when we are born, when we
are married, when we are cleo
ted to Office; defend us in disas-
ter and trouble; comfort us in
grief. and eulogize us in death
they fight the party battles year
in and year out with small prof
its and the attendant hard
ships"
And on top of all this are
found some well-to-do people
who will not spend a penny for
advertising and others who will
not even pay $l.00 per year on
subscription to help keep a pa
per in their town.

Bad Eggs.

The bad egg" season is fast
approaching and already there
have been complaints about bad
eggs being put on the market.
One person found nine bad ones
in a dozen last week. Some of
the eggs are hard boiled and
others are taken from incubators.
How long is it going to be till
the people realize that to sell a
bad egg and know it, is just as
bad as to steal wheat out of a
farmers bin.
And some people will even
get angry to have the merchants
candle their eggs and pick out
the bad ones, even though the
merchant has them candled on
him when he sell them and has
to lose all the bad ones. The
writer once saw a woman get
angry and throw a whole basket
Of eggs into the stove when the
merchant started to candle her
eggs.
Farmers should gather up
their eggs closely every day and
then keep them in a cool place
as the heat will start the hatch
ing. After the brooding season
is over, pen ny or sell all the
roosters, as an egg that is not
fertile will keep much longer.

it and putting the smoke into
the woman's face, until she fair
ly sickens of the smell.
And that is one thing that the
patron of the mail order house
doesn't have to put up with, be-
cause the distance purifies the
air. Some of you home mer-
chants do your share of the
cleaning of the back ways, and
don't allow a lot Of old rotting
vegetables and fruit lie around
to create stink and breed sick
ness. That cigar in your mouth
and and the smoke in a woman's s
face always looks like fire at
one end and a fool at the other,
besides a good case of sick head
ache before reaching home.

Sound Advice.

The following is taken from
an article contributed by a lady
to the Mountain Park Herald:
If you sincerely desire the pat
ronage of the first class people,
don't drive them to the mail or
der houses. If you have the
interest of your home town at
heart. and a woman comes into
your place of business and you
ask, What is it for you today"
