dreds, tie size Of the crowd did not appar-
emily diminish until late in the evening. 1t
was genuine Fourth of July crowd, good
humored and partially exhilarated, and
there is no question but the railroads.
hotels md sideshows made good
thing, financially speaking, out of
it. Tie day was perfect, and
the beauties of this charming resort were
adequately exhibited. Many Of the prom
inent citizens of St. Paul were noticed upon
the grounds with their families. The great
feature of the days sightseeing was the
enormous train loads of people which pulled
out of tie union depot for the lake. The
railroad company had fitted up large
number IF fat cars with awnings and seats
placed l0gthwise, and ran them in trains
of about dozen with two engines
and fourcabOOses attached. Every seat in
the trains was occupied and thTongs of peO-
pie stool upon the edges of the cars and
even upn the tops of the caboOSes. How
so many people were handled without a
serious casualty record is a mystery. To
be sure. the trip was triiie uncomfortable,
owing tOthe hardness of the seats and the
flying cimlers, but everybody laughed, dug
their fistSinto their eyes and made merry
with the summer damsel. The train which
started OF at , o'clock had over l,OOO peO-
pie abOart.
At the axe every variety of amusement
was presented, from the living skeleton t.
the aerial wing. Fakirs were numerous,
and fruit and lemonade vendors reaped a
good harvest through the aid of green APP
pies and Stale lemons. About the only un-
pleasant occurrence noticed was the rush OF
several hundred people after a bogus watch
peddler. And that incident had IFS anus
ing features for the crowd.

Between and o'clock last evening
Nick Michaeles and Herbert Kreuz became
involved in a quarrel at the United States
hotel on Fort street, between Ninth and
Tenth, during which MichaeleS drew a
pocket knife and stabbed Kreuz twice, once
in the left side, just between the last two
ribs, and also in the fieshy part part of the
left leg, near the groin. DIS. Dedolph and
Smith were called in and pronounced the
wounds not necessarily fatal, although the
wounded man bled very freely. Kreuz was
married but a week or two ago and is a
carpenter by trade. Miehaeles has until re-
Gently been employed in a brickyard on
DaStOn's bluff. There was an effort OH the
part of the proprietor of the hotel, Tbeo-
dore JAMS. to keep the affair from the police,
but the latter will doubtless overhaul
Michaeles this morning. Both the men
had been drinking, and the quarrel was the
result of too frequent potations of the cool
and fOaming lager.

A TUB RACE.
Following the rowing was a tub race, 500
feet, for gold badge. Luther Newport,
G. l.. Bigelow, S. p. Ordway, j. n.
jackson and T. O'Brien entered. The
tubs were launched successfully,
though Newport was the only
one that kept his craft from shipping seas
to the finish and he was given first prize.
A swimming match for the same distance
was contested by Bigelow, Ordway, Jack
son and O'Brien, Ordway winning.
THE PRIZES
were awarded Immediately in the little pa
vilion. Mayor Rice, in giving the mayors
cup to j. +. Faulkner for the junior four
cared, congratulated the winning team and
suggested that some day the captain of the
winning crew might stand i'm the mayors
shoes himself, and have the honor Of pre-
senting the cup to another.
Gen. II. w. johnson presented the C iii
zens cup to P. w. Parker saying that he
knew more of military than naval officers
and, moreover, being a Kentuckian, knew
very little about water, as they had no use
for it in his native state. He
believed rowing to be the noblest of manly
sports, and deserving to be practiced by all
young men. Miss Dean presented the
Corning prize with few gracious words,
and Miss Kelly the JilSon prize. The prizes
for the double scull, the tub and the
swimming races, were pinned to the respec-
tive winners breasts by Miss Jessie Rice,
Miss FOrepaugh and Miss Bend, all
of whom made congratulatory
speeches. Miss Bend in presenting
the swimming prize TO Mr.. Ordway
was especially witty, saying that since
Leander had distinguished himself and won
great fame in all the ages by swimming the
HellespOnt, swimming had been one of the
lost arts until revived Dy the Minnesota
boat club. She congratulated the victor on
behalf of his lady friends on his success,
and urged him to be ever present, that he
might lend aid TO other members of the
club whenever by contact with the numer-
GUS barges and other craft they were forced

THE CHAMPIONS WIN.
st. Paul knocks Out Chicago i'm the
Game of Lacrosse.

Game of Lacrosse.
In beating the Calumets of Chicago by
three straight goals yesterday at White Bear,
the St Paul Lacrosse club has not only
shown itself to be justly entitled the cham
pion club of the United States, but that it
has the mettle that would undoubtedly com
pare favOrably with the crack clubs of
Canada, notably the ShamrOcks, MOntreals
and Torontos.
In yesterdays game the St Paul BOYS
showed remarkable skill at fielding the ball
and noted improvement over their work
Of last season. Though TO one unacquainted
with the catchy game it would have APP
peared that the game was holly contested.
but nothing of the sort. the ST. Pauls from
the beginning showing their marked superb
GRITTY at every point. They showed up par
ticularly well in lodging and in the hand
ling of the ball when they had il.
The Chicago club was lacking in many
points, which perhaps could not have been
so easily noticed had il not been pitted
against one much its superior. The players

Oftentimes, of a short throw over a long

an advantage which was as often lost. The

crowd of spectators. when the St Paul
team scored a point over the Chicago club,
was something tremendous.
THE CROWD YELLED ITSELF HoARsE
and did some loud clapping. But when
any of the Chicago team did anything,
which did not occur very frequently, the
audience did not keep altogether quiet, but
gave the visitors little ''send off," There
were perhaps 5000 people on the grounds.
The players on both sides showed friendly
feeling toward each other, with the excep-
ton of little incident in the third goal.
when one of the Chicagos and one of the
st. Pauls pitched into each Other
with bare knuckleS. The Chicago man
attempted to knock the stick out
of the hands of the ST. Paul man and the
latter retaliated, when both laid their in
struments away and claSped each otheI
most aifectionately. The struggle was
quieted. though, before anything diSastrou.
occurred or before either was knocked out.
The game was announced for 3 o'clock.
but it was not until $3.50 that the men tool
their respective positions, which were a;

The ball was faced at 3:35 by Hughes Of
the ST. Pauls and Murphy of the ChicagoS.
Hughes secured the ball and sent it into the
center of the field by little SkirmiShing.
and from there il was taken 10 the Chicago
goal. where it was tossed about a short time
and then put through 10y Hughes. This
game was a very short one. il being won in

THE FOURTH AT WHITE BEAR
Thousands Of People Indulge i'm All

sOhtN ~
For the first time in the season the hotel
proprietors of White Bear have had to
grumble over a crowd too large to handle.
All day long immense train loads, each
containing from 500 to 1000 people, were
headed toward the lake from ST. Paul and
saltwater. A hap-hazard estimate places
the number of visitors present at $4,000.
The crowd was enormous and overfiowed
the public grounds to such an extent
that even private boundaries were
invaded. The woods and hotels were liter
ally full of people. Every boat upon the
lake was pressed into service, and although
every half hour trains departed with hun

The Girl at the Front Gate.

Heaven bless the girl at the
front gate with peach bloom on
her cheeks and love light in her
eyes. Men would shut her out of
literature, but I am not one of
them. The girl at the front gate
can never grow old to those who
have been there with her. Years
may come and go, but the music
of the low voice at the front gate
will not be stilled and the memory
of the cherry lips we kissed at tho
front gate will hold out faithful to
the end. What if the old gate
does sag and its hinges rattle and
its latch refuse to hold it shut?
What il the posts are shaky and
some of its pickets gone? Why
love the dear old relic still? Why,
love it for the sake Of the girl who
uesd to stand out there by it with
roses on her cheeks and nectar on
her lips. We held the old gate up
and counted the stars and bid
goodby and then counted the stars
again. How many times of a
night was goodby said? How
many times did lips meet DER the
dear old gate? The old gate
knows, but it will never tell. The
old front gate may have counted
the kisses, but | never did. And
what Of the girl with the peach
bloom cheeks? Ali; me! She
married another. She forgot her
VOWS at tine old front gate, as
some girls will, and married a
richer and handsomer man. And
II? Well, | went off to another
front gate where there were other
peach bloom cheeks and other
lips as sweet and just as many
stars to count. And now | have
front gate of my own and a girl
of my own with peach bloom
chs eks who count the stars with
the boy Of the girl whose VOWS
made with me at the first front gate
were broken. But he is a true,
good boy, and my girl IS q good,
true girl, and heaven bless them
both as they stand tonight at the
old gate.-St. Louis Magazine.

A Benevolent Old Man.

just as evening was closing in
a curley-headed little boy was
standing on tiptoe on the doorstep
of a house, trying to ring the bell.
Just then a benevolent old man
passed along. He paused, and
with kindly smile patted the
boy on the head.
"My son, that door bell is a lit
tie beyond your reach, isn't it?'
"Yeth thir."
"Ah," continued the old gentle
man, musingly, sit is a symbol of
the striving OF youth after the un-
attainable. How often in this
world the thing we desire most is
beyond our grasp! And when af
ter continued effort we have secur-
ed the object of our ambition, how
often we find that it is not worth
what it cost My little man, | am
taller than you. Shall l ring the
bell for you?"
eff you want to-" replied the
boy, looking at him out of the
corners Of his roguish eyes.
With another fatherly smile, the
old gentleman gave the bell-han-
die vigorous pull. What was his
amazement to see the boy jump
from the steps and slide around
the corner with the words:
you'd better hurry now, or
they will be after you"
The boy had scarcely disappear
ed when an upper window opened
and the contents of bowl of wa
ter descended on the old man with
the words:
"Take that for your impudence!"
There is one man who thinks
he will not help any more little
boys pull their neighbors' door
bell-at least until after he has
asked few questions.

II belonged to the Ninth Maine
known as the Bloody Ninth.
My company was once detailed to
bury the rebel dead after battle
In which both sides lost heavily.
Trenches were dug in the usual
fashion, in which the bodies were
placed side by side. I began to
throw on dirt. 1 was used to
bloody Scenes and deeds, but
when one Of the rebels being bur
led as dead repeatedly brushed
the sand and dirt from his eyes
and face, I felt as if the grave was
yawning to bring out witnesses
against us. OF course we stopped
the burial, and the surgeons at
tention was called to the wounded
Confederate. He was shot through
and through the head, and anoth-
er bullet had gone entirely
through his body. How he lived
was wonder to me. But he was
great stout young fellow with a
frame of iron. 4 saw this man
yesterday during the. fight" the
surgeons said. Nothing can be
done for him. He can't live. He
is unconscious, although he brush
es the dirt out Of his face. I must
look after men that can be saved.
With that he left, and subordi-
nate officer deliberately took a pis-
tol from his pocket and blew the
wounded mans brains out and
we went on with the burial. 1t
was my worst experience during
the war. and / have the horrors
every time | think of it. But war
is a bloody business. That was
no time for moralizing, and [ sup
pose the officer was right in say
ing that there was no time "to
take care Of diving Rebs.'"
