The sale of seats tor the Little Nngget entertainment to be given at Turner hall on Monday evening for the benefit of the new opera house, is flattering and it means a large attendance. It is needless to linger on the merits of this play and the company to produce it.

Both are A No. 1 and every citizen who has the interests of an opera house at heart, will be present upon its presentation. XOSS FAMILY. They will be at Turner hall on the evening of November 18th. An exchange says of tbem: "The term musical wonder is not a misnomer when applied to that family.

It consists of seven performers, father, four daughters and two sons, and each member is able to play on almost any instrument; indeed it appears that anything their touch resounds with music The two sons provoked sweetest son mis from even bottles ami bowls arranged as tilopbones. The character sketches were welt and the family band is a strongone. These people are not only musicians, but actors, the entertainment closing with an amusing comedy, "Lucky Ones," in which many musical specialties were introduced." The New Odd Fellow Hall. A prominent Odd Fellow said last evening: "Racine Lodge No. 8, have definitely settled to build a new and elegant brick hall on Wisconsin street, aud Mr.

Davis, a competent architect, is making the plans and specifications. It will be a building 60x100; two stories high, with stores below and the hall above and it will cost from $8,000 to $10,000. Work will be commenced upon the structure just as soon as the frost leaves the ground next spring. No, 8 will build it alone'anl without help from outsiders." Shameful Scene. A shameful scene was witnessed on North Wisconsin street one evening recently.

It was a number of boys pelting old cabhage and rotten tomatoes at an old man with bent form and silvered locks. The poor old gentleman, weak and childish, trembled Poor Work on the Heating Apparatus Pot In the Fifth Ward School. ymr ncuvni me ran si uie vniracnr, A if a a am a. aa am a a Mr Demand Pay Before Goods are Delivered and the Work Done It Look Bad Ail Around. When the special meeting of the Board of Education wan called to order last evening, the first matter taken up wan the beating of the Filth wan! school, and many startling facts were developed.

It appear that the Board, or the oouiruittre on heating and ventilation contracted with Hnyett A Smith, of Detroit, Michigan, through their western agent, Mr. lVmnell, of Clii-ago, to pat iu a steant or hot air heating apparatiM. Indue time the apparatus came ami a force of men to put it iu place, Among them was a good Mechanic, but when the work, wan half com pleted he departed, leaving other men to finiu the job. When they finished it the wltole gang left without even letting a single iiieiler of the Board or committee know they were going, or giving them a cltance to inspect iho work, Cbmaiitttioner Austin nail visited the school while the work was going on and noticed many had defects slid had called the attentiou of the men to it, and wsm assured that everything was made it was not done, and Mr. Austin stated to; the Board last ievening that the I job was a poor one, tliat it was not in ac cordance wiih the contract ami incomplete.

The apparatus would not heat the school properly or ventilate the rooms, and on a coUfNlay It would take hours to warm the rooiiiiy and unless the fan was going there would lie no heat at all; the recitation room on tie sefond floor had liceu left out altogetlir and the meu, when their at ten tiou to it, saitl they had over- I looked tlutt joom. lUTorder to heat the r.iom-they hml cut bole through the conductors so that the hot air Would go up; the two went rooiixsare not heated at all and stores have been put up tu warm them the pulley on the engine to ran the tan does not fit; a dour hud been cut iu the fao room and in order to get through it a person must crawl between a belt, which was dangerous; au iron door under toe boiler bad warped and would not close; the water guage is out of gear, and not the leant thing hail been done toward cleaning up; in tact tt. Austin said that the whole job looked oa though a lot of tinkers had done it, whendhe man, who made the contract had isaitf; the work was to lie done by the firm's bent mechanic, and the contract guaranteed that the fparatns would give I TO degrees heat in the coldest weather. OommMwdoners Gillen and Hwcnsou ami Superintendent Wioslow coiu-idtd with Con. Austin, that the job was a oor one and not complete.

It transpired that Superintendent Wiu- shm had written to the tirm of the poor work done, and had considerable corn tioii- deneek tlte subject. All of this correspondence was read, aud Mr. Bounell lutd written that lie would come and make it all right, but he had uot come. Instead, the superintendent lunl received a letter from the firm demanding part pay for the work' which they claimed had been completed. The contract was then read ami showed I that -the first: third of the contract price, was to be paid when all the goods had been delivered, the second third when the work was completed and the balance February 1st.

1 Then the bond of $2,000 was read and the startling fact was revealed that the firm hod given their own bond. Com. Gillen was. surprised that the com mittee) sbonltl accept any such bond, as he was sure if it was for themselves they would have refused, President Northrop said that the firm was of: inch high standing that they cor- sidered the bond good and sufficient. Com.

Howell said that the standing of the firm in the Commercial Reporter was hurber than any firm that the Board had dealings with heretofore. Com. Gillen said that be had seeu men quoted in the Reporter as being worth when they were not worth a cent. The discussion now reverted back to the heating apparatus, and it transpired that all -the material had not been delivered, and ithe Board could not be compelled to pay ithe first third. Com.

If well said that be had consulted City Attorney Flett, and he had stated that he could not see how the Board could escape! paying the first third, but Mr. Flett it appears, "thought all goods had been de- livered. Com, Cooper thought that Mr. Flett conkl not have been correctly informed or he would not have given that opinion, and he further said that the demand of Hnyett Smith should not be complied with, as it was- not to be decided by them when the job was completed, but by competent members of the Board. if Com.

Gillen said it was singular that the men alioiild leave after they considered the job i done, without letting anyone know about it. He never heard of such a thing before. Discussion was general land finally a resolution was that the first quarter payment be made, when the committee on beating and ventilation see that all the goods have been delivered, and Com. Coooer moved that it be added that it is the sense of the Bonrd that the work is not completed and that there are many obvious defects. It is evident that somebody has been very negligent in allowing such inferior and botch work to be done in the putting in of the furnace.

Many are of the opinion that it will not prove adequate to the demand and become; an elephant on the hands of TURNER HALL. -T w. (1 Tikuc, Manage J7 oirsi icictHT oitxiti MONDAY, NOV. 11, '89. CRUSADERS IN THE UNO OF FUN.

MARINE. The schooner Kewaunee is in port with lumber. She will make four more trips before going into winter quarters. The steam barge Starke arrived iu port last evening from Ashland with a cargo of lumber for Kelley, Weeks Co. The schooner Belle Tlansoru arrived with coal for Wm.

Pugh. The scow Laurina arrived with a cargo of shingles. -I Low Wafer. The water in the river at this port, has been lower on several days the week than ever known before, and the same state of affairs exists at Milwaukee. The follow ing from the Milwaukee Wisconsin, will be read with interest, as Capt.

Breyman is the gentleman who put in our waterworks, and one of the most expert sub-marine engi necrs in the country: "In 18H4, when I laid the Jones' Island siphon pipe," remarked Capt. Toledo, last evening, "the stage of water in the river was eighteen inches above datum. To-day it was a trine over one foot below datum, or thirty inches below the stage in 1884." When told that on Wednesday the water was four-tenths of one foot lower still, Capt. Breymaan expressed surprise, and wondered when the lowest stage would be reached. The datum mark on the register Itourds at East Water Street bridge indicates the lowest stage of water known to have existed previous to their establishment.

No Ctaa-aa-GasIs in Racine. The reporter was informed last evening that a representative from one of the Clan-na-Gael societies had been in the city solic iting money to tie used in defending the men now being tried for the murder of Dr. Cronin. It was also said that he met with success, as there were many here who sympathized with the accused men, in fact they were secret Clan-na-Gaels. The reporter interviewed twenty-five Irishmen but not one of them bad seen or heard; of such a man being here and every one of them expressed the same opinion that if those men were guilty of; Dr.

Cronin's murder they ought to be hung. The Journal can state that there few men in Racine who are Clan-na-Gaels and still fewer who would contrib ute money for the men charged with the murder of Cronin. The New CatheUe Hall. As announced several days ago, the two South side Catholic societies will build a large aud commodious hall, with a casiuo attachment, and the cost will be from $8,000 to $10,000.

L. II. Morey, of the First Pres byterian church of this city to accept a call rrom the First Presbyterian church at Racine, has caused a good deal of interest members of the churches here. It is not often that a minister refuses an in crease of salary, especially when the figures represent $1,000. Mr.

Morey receives 1,500 from the First Presbyterian church here, while he was offered $2,500 to go to Racine. The church at the latter place is one of the wealthiest and finest in the state. The church here has bad a struggle for exis tence tor some years, bat has within a year or two been made comparatively strong by accessions from the First Congregational church, on account of the liberal views of its pastor, the Rev.

RearesMtief ta the Woman that They Had Bought If From the Owner Wha was aot Home. Phillip Ranen is an! honest and industri ous farmer residing in the town of Caledonia. He owns a good farm and has several fine horses and head of cattle. Among the later was a fat calf worth $10, but Phillip has the animal no longer. It was stolen from him in the boldest manner pos sible.

Yesterday the thrifty tiller of the soil was in the city with a load of produce, the bulk of which he disposed of tat Wick-ham William's, on Main street. To Mr. Williams the horny handed fanner related the manner in which the fat calf Was stolen. Mr. Ranen is a bachelor and his sisters reside with him on the! farm.

Several days ago he had occasion to leave home and was gone roost of the day During his absent three men with a 1 horse attached to a butcher's wagon having a rack upon it, drove up to the farm and inspected the stock. They informed and made the women folks believe that they bad bought the fat calf, and that Mr.1 Ranen had sent tbem after it. The result was that the animal was loaded into the wagon, and the men drove away with it, taking a northerly di rection. When Mr. Rauen got back to the farm he was made; conversant with the actions of the men who took it away.

It is needless to say that both he and his sisters were greatly exercised over the matter. From the description given of the men, Mr. Ranen is almost positive that they were two Milwaukee butchers whom he had seen in the town a few days before. He has made no effort to ascertain mho the men are, as he says it would cost bim ten tiroes what the animal in worth, and so the thieves will go unpunished and practice the same thing npou other farmers. When dishonest ras cals become so bold that they will visit a farm in broad day-light and by false repre sentations carry off stock, it is time the farmers organize a fociety for their own protection.

That Stole the Horses From Caledonia Farmers? A Suspicion That He Was the Man. It is believed that Norman Bruce, the the Racine horse thief who recently es caped from Waupun, is the man who stole the four horses from farmers in the towns of Mt. Pleasant and Caledonia, with the assistance of two pals. A man answering the description of Bruce was seen near the county line and two men were with him. On the night of that day the horses and buggies were Btolen.

Bruce is one of the most expert horse thieves in the country, and a very desperate and gamey man. In conversation with Sheriff Ball, that officer said that he earnestly believed that the work was instigated and carried out by Bruce and h4i confederates. "The nerve of Bruce" said the sheriff "beats anything I ever saw. He wonld hesitate at nothing he could secure a good horse." It is thought that the horses were run into Franklin, Milwaukee and are now se creted in that place, or vicinity. OBITUARY.

FATHKK FOECKLEK. Rev. Father Anthony Foeckler, Pastor of St. Joseph's Catholic church at the corner of St. Patricks and North Erie street, died at 4.

"20 this morning at the church parsonage, of dropsy of the heart. For some time he has been in poor health, but last February he was stiicken down with heart troubles. He rallied however, and was able to attend to his priestly duties until after August 20, since which time he has been confined to his bed. He was a pastor much beloved by bis people and the many girts bestowed upon him, on the occasion of his silver jubilee on July 2d, 118, attest to more than words can express of his high appreciation by them. Father Foeckler was born in Landstubl Rbeinpfalx, Germany.

September, 12, 1837. His earlier education was received in Spire City, Palatine, Bavaria. On coming to this country he pursued his studies in the Uni versity at Cape Girardeau, Ma, and finally prepared himself for the priesthood at St, Francis Seminary, near Milwaukee, from 1859 to 18G3 being ordained a priest, when only 23 years of age by Archbishop Henni. He served pastorates successively at Cross Plains, Springfield, Germantown, Columbus, New Berlin and Foot vi lie, coming to Racine in 1877. The funeral will be held from St.

Joseph's church on Wednesday, and about thirty priests from different parts of the state will attend. Father Foeckler leaves a sister at Milwaukee and one at Ft. Wayne, and a brother iu Germany. The members of his family and of his church will receive the heartfelt sympathy of the citizens of Racine iu their loss of a kind and affection ate brother and a beloved pastor. The body of the dead priest will lie con veyed to St.

Joseph church at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon and lay in state until Wednesday morning. A BaautHal Locality. Dodge street, east of North Main street to the lake, is the darkest and loneliest thoroughfare in the city and it is worth a persons life to travel that way. The street is a perfect mud hole, the walks bad and there are lumber, wood and coal piles on every side. The waterworks company has put up handsome and costly buildings over that way and the city should at least make the road leading to it sightly.

A light just east of Chatham wonld be a big improve ment, as it would at least enable people to see on a dark night. Tha Great Fair. The fair for the benefit of the new St, Mary's Hospital, will commence at the lakeside rink on the evening of November 25 and continue during the entire week. Committees from the different societies have labored nobly for this worthy event and they have been successful in gathering a large number of articles. That it surpass all fairs held in the city is a foregone conclusion.

How deserving the hospital is the reader knows, and every citizen should attend when the opening occurs.
