Towards the afternoon the
assembly dispersed, some 60
ing home, and others returning
to Grangeville to witness the
program of boys sports which
had been arranged, and which
afforded much amusement to
the spectators. The Minstrel
show in the evening drew a
full house, and this closed the
festivities of the first day.
Friday, the second day, the
program consisted of horse ra-
cling over the Grangeville
track in the afteroon, and a
grand public dance in Grange
hall in the evening. A report
Of the races will be found else
where The dance drew out
a large crowd and dancing was
maintained to the inspiring
strains Of the band orchestra
music until broad daylight,
and this may be said to have
closed the celebration, for al
though the crowd still kept in
town to see the races on Sat-
urday, yet there was a notable
absence of that spontaneous
gaiety which marked the fun
on the preceding days, and
thus ended the most notable
celebration Camas prairie has
ever had.

to spring up like hydra heads,
and drawing on a great poet

that "soft eyes were looking

in good taste, faultless in fact,
and in contemplating the har-
mony and blending of color, the eye be-
came delighted. as when we who are
appreciative, admire a garden of rare
exotics. God bless them, the sweet
dallings! If sometimes they become
our bane. yet upon occasion they are
lavish with the antidote, and without
them We are lost, and would speedily
relapse into barbarism.

The three days racing program over
the Grangeville track was carried out
very successfully on July 9th, 9th and
Sth, and the attendance each day shows
the interest manifested in sporting
events by the people of this community.
The track and program was under the
sole management of c. y. Wood and +.
McGrane and it is very credtable to
these gentlemen that the program was
carried to successful completion without
a single hitch anywhere to mar the har-
mony that prevailed throughout. Pool
selling was about up to tho average, and
would have been far more lively but for
the anticipation of hard times, which
made everybody button up their wallets.
The following program was run:

EDITOR PRESS s:-Your letter
of withdrawal from being the
orator of the day was duly re-
ceived, and many were the re-
grets expressed at your alb
sence. 1t marred the program,
for had we not expected you
we would have made other ar
rangments. However, we got
on remarkably we'll. There
was a procession of 200 China
men, with gongs and stringed
instruments, and dragon flags
holding up the rear end of the
procession Of Saxon citizens of
the camp, over whom hoated
the star-spangled banner, and
they in turn led by a round do
zen Of beautiful ladies on
horseback, under the escort of
the Alton delegation oftwenty-
five men, also on horseback.
Upon the return of the process
sion, Mr.. Gagan, of Alton, ad-
dressed the citizens in his hap
piest vein, and his whole dis
course rang with patriotism,
which called forth ringing
cheers again and again. Then
Hon. N. B. Wiley read the
Declaration of Independence
as | never heard him read it
before; his delivery was i'm
pressive, and really fine. Mr..
Chas. Clifford then delighted
us with an original poem, and
was cheercd with a will upon
its conclusion. Next, the two
Miss Days sang the "Star-
Spangled Banner in splendid
voice and feeling, thrilling
every nerve.
Then, after discussing the
bounteous spread Of refresh
ments, liquid and solid, horse
racing became the order Of
the day.. G. A. Bemis' horse,
Dash, being matched against a
prairie horse owned by John
Crooks. There was great

ken; | never saw so much ex-
citement in Warrens before on
a horse race; the ladies spot
ted the winning horse and
came out winners and jubilant; !;
even the boys were betting as
high as twenty-five dollars and
showed good amateur skill in
betting. Well, there were two
heats, the Crooks horse win
ming both times. II. D. Gros-
tein won a hundred dollars,
and the writer had nearly as
much on the winner: then came
cheering and yelling and liquid
refreshments ad libitum. In
the evening we had a fine dis
play of fireworks, for we had
purchased the whole stock for
sale at Lewiston, and as some
extra fine piece was set off, the
men fairly made the welkin
ring, and the little folks were
fairly beside themselves with

MURDEROUS ALIENS.
Hungarian Strikers Refuse to Go

SCoTTDALE, Pa, Aug. 1o.-The Hun
garian strikers at Morewood, Frick &
Co.'s works refused to go to work this
morning on the ground that the sign
ing of the new scale is illegal. Master
Workman Dayton, one of the victims of
the assault at the Alice works yester-
day, is lying at the point of death. The

SQUIRE DUNCAN ASSAULTED.
CONNELLSVILLE, Pa. Aug. 10. Squire
Duncan and two constables attempted
to arrest twelve Tioting Hungarians at
Mover coke works this morning. A
crowd of Hungarions turned upon the
officer, beating Duncan into insensi-
bility, and drove the constables away.
Duncan's injuries are thought to be
fatal. The sheriff of Fayette county
has been called upon.
FATAL RIOT AT GREENsBURG.
GREENsBURG, Pa, Aug. 1O.-A riot
occurred at the Hecla works, owned by
William Thaw, late this afternoon.
Three men were fatally injured. About
700 men went there from the Mammoth
works and asked the men at work to
quit. Upon their refusal the drunken
mob assaulted and beat them terribly.
The coal wagons were thrown down the
shafts; the windows in the houses were
all broken; one woman was struck by
flying stone and badly injured; one man
was struck by pick, the blade of which
passed through his shoulder; another
had leg broken and a Hungarian had
his skull fractured. A sheritf's posse
left this place at 8 o'clock, but upon
their arrival at Hecla the mob had fed.
The damage to property is great. 1t is
probable that at least three of the i'll
jured will die before morning.

ATLANTA, Ga, Aug. 10.-Patrick Cal
houn, general counsel for the West
Point Terminal road, and I'D. William
son, president of the Chattanooga, Rome
& Carrollton road, fought duel at
Hokes's Bluff, on the Coosa river. this
evening, in which Calhoun wounded
Williamson in the right arm. The
trouble grew out of Williamson de-
nouncing statement made by Calhoun
before legislative committee as false.
Capt. Harry Jackson, of Atlanta, was
Calhoun's second, and Capt. Jack King,
of Rome, was WilliamSon's second.
LATER-The reports from the field of
battle show that Williamson was not
touched by Calhoun's ball. Williamson
fired five times quickly, while Calhoun
rested on the first shot. Calhoun then
demanded an apology again, which
Williamson gave, and the duel was
over.
The dueling ground was pitched
about 200 feet over the Georgia line in
Alabama, Oh the Rome & Decatur road.
Twelve PAGES were stepped off when at
the signal Mr.. Williamson fired his five
barrels in rapid succession and Mr..
Calhoun fired one, WhereupOn Mr.. Cal
houn again demanded an apology.
After consultation an understanding
was reached, when Mr. Calhoun fired
the remaining barrels in the air and the
parties separated. By direction of Gov.
Gordon, several efforts were made to
arrest the parties before the affair, but
all were unsuccessful.

1t looked as though the Garfelds' bow

left three lengths in the rear at the
outset, through misunderstanding with
the starter, but made magnificent
fight, contesting every inch to
the finish. They were too badly handi-
capped, however, to win, the Metropoll-
tans crossing the line first two lengths
before the Sylvans, who beat the Catlins
by similar distance. Time, 1904.
