The game was. one-sded from the start,
the Pillsburys being outplayed at every
point. The Washburn pitcher was toe
much for the boys from the big mills snd
they famed the atmosphere with amusing
frequency. Run upon run was piled up by
Washburns until they had % to by the
Pillsburys. which was the way the score
stood. Hart. the Washburn catcher, had
his head hurt in the sixth inning, in a col
lisiOn, but finished the game. The Wash
burns will now hold the cup until beaten
next year or some other year.
THE SACK RACE
led off after dinner. The start was made
from the edge of the east veranda and the
distance fifty yards. The entries were
Harry Buchwalter, Petit mill; Tom Johnson,
Washburn A. Matt Leahy, Washburn c.;
Frank Wrankler, Anchor; Tom Hawley,
Tom Gallagher, Galaxy; James KOnnan,
Won Scheliha, Northwestern; John Allan,
Palisade; liver P. Schei, Holly, and Joseph
Terrlce, Phoenix. The start was made and
amid the shrieks of laughter, the sacked
forms went tumbling along the line. Half
Of them went down before twenty feet were
covered. John Allan, by dint of short
oOOPo, CdiAC Ill diicdu, dill Idly DuCii-
walter, by series of jumps, got there Sec
johnson tied and divided the money, The
prizes were $40, 81 and 81.
THE GREASY POLE
was planted in the lawn and reared it's
slippery sides forty feet in the air, with a
$40 prize for the successful climber. A
half dozen kids made ludicrOus efforts to
shin up the pole, but without success.
Finally, Ed Evenson climbed painfully up
fifteen feet, which so stimulated John Cor
ham that he went two feet higher. Aimee
Prusse finally developed a scheme for put
ting sand in his pocket, and thus fortified,
got several feet higher. Gorham then tried
the same thing and tied him, and the two
little urchins divided the $40 bill and went
away happy.
THE 20O-YARD FOOT RACE
for the opera glass offered by the Modern
Miller was next called with the following
entries: A. D. Scott, Washburn c; Joseph
Wolf, Galaxy; William JOSS, Crown Roller.
This was the least exciting race of the
series, the only interest being in controlling
the crowd and clearing a race track. Scott
took the lead and maintained it, winning
easily by twenty feet.
THE SLIPPERY PoRKER.
The exciting event was the chase for the
creased pig. The animal was suddenly
driven on the lawn, when wild chase be-
gan, hampered, however, by the great
crowd. Several mill operatives grasped the
animal, but could not retain their hold.
Finally Tom Mullen of Pillsbury A mill ran
the porker into the bushes and fell on it,
pinning it fiat and securing it. AS prizes
he got the pig and the handsome set of
jewelry offered by Ogilvie & Co. of Mon
treal
IN THE TUBS.
The last sporting event, the tub race. took
place in the bay back of the hotel, dozen
men and boys entering. The tub is risky
boat and those seemed to have round bot
toms. -Four of them overturned as soon as
the word go was given. Only three reached
the end, as follows: First, Charles Overing-
ton, Washburn A; second, Joseph Hall,
Washburn B, and third, Albert Rankin,
Crown Roller. The prizes were 81, SIS
and So.
RETURNING HOME.
The regular train at o'clock brought in
the first load Of returning pilgrims. 1t con-
sisted Of ten coaches, ''loaded to the gun
wales" The first excursion train came in
at 6 o'clock. Twenty-seven coaches were
filled, but the two engines found it too hard
pull and it was divided into two sections.
Some few of the tourists remained until the
II o'clock train, but threatened storm
made the number very small. Superin-
tendent Kemp gave his personal attention
to the trains and was complimented upon
the expedition with which he moved them
and the entire freedom from accidents or
discomfort.
The day ended satisfactorily. The picnic
was a huge success and not single acct
dent or disagreeable incident marred it's per-
feet enjoyment.
