The Manitowoc pilot. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1859-1932, 1889-07-11

ihE "eaVnHi was at its best on the
fonrtb and the small boy who had funds
U" --lcient with which to purchase a string
| of fire crackers found life full of sweet
ness. Those for whom a holiday has lost
its flavor reveled in the soft breezes and
grateful sunshine like genuine lotus
eaters. The procession was by no means
as lengthy as people had expected, but
it was procession "all the same" and
no one can look with unconcern on such
moving body. The proposed route was
shortened somewhat and Washington
Park was reached before any one grew
leg-weary. The exercises were opened
by the President of the day, Mr.. L. c.
Shove. Principal Hewitt read the Dec
laration of Independence and Hon. T. r.
Hudd delivered the Grafton. (No synop-
Sis is here attempted as the Grafton will
be published entire in the Pilot next
week. During the afternoon there was
a divisisn of the band and of the crowd.
Some seeking pleasure at Washington
Park while others wendell their way to
the Fair grounds.
At the latter place the trotting at
tracted most attention. In the first class
Burnet's and Smiths horses were the only
enteries. 1t was a most exciting race,
the horses being neck and neck through
out the greater part of the course. The
first heat was trotted in 2:45 the horses
coming in SO closely together that only
those IN line with the wire could tell
which was the victor. The second heat
was likewise a close affair but in time it
was $50. Little Turk took both heats
Morgan's horse and Huebner's trotted
in the second class. There was alto
gether too much disparity between the
horses to awaken any interest. Huebner's
horse won without trying.
The little Parks won the game of base
ball. They played exceptionally well,
while the Smalleys did not appear at
their best.
The sham battle became a bit tire
some before it was terminated though it
was novel scene to great many.
In the tug of war number of the
Rankin Guards were pitted against an
equal number of the Rifle Company The
latter seemed to have the advantage of
weight but the former won by pluck and
persistence.
In the quarter mile dash fer runners,
Bauman came in first and Brandt second.
The bareback horse race was swon by
Joe Edwards long tailed mare, though
Herzog's mustang would have certainly
come in ahead if he had not bolted.
The display of fireworks proved little
disappointing to those who witnessed it
from distance. Those at closer range
were better satisfied. Some one stepped
on George Washington and mashed him
SO badly that he looked like an ordinary
piece of fire work. The evening was cold
and the only persons who felt comfort
ably warm were those engaged in shoot
ing off, the fire works.

WHEN Harry Kress was a tow-headed
urchin he made visit to Michigan to
some friends. A boy always likes to
drive a horse and Kress was no exception.
He borrowed horse and a light wagon
from farmer and took few companions
to visit Judge Colburn who was then
giving some attention to experimental
farming. The Judge had just r..rrnased
new variety of oats cor which he maid
81 per hIssneI and had only one bushel
lpe old beast kress drove was sadly in
need of a good meal Kress drew off his
boots and filled them full of the choice
oats which he brought surreptitiously to
the old horse and fed him the entire bush
el. The Judge now wants his pay with
compound interest.

FEARFUL AND WONDERFUL.

The Bible says, "man is fearfully and
wonderfully made" But Psychologists
all concede that the most wonderful por-
ton OF the man is the nervous system.
In it are located the seats of life and
mind, and the control of all the bodily
organs. When the nerves are destroyed
the part is paralized. The flesh, blood
and bones are as nothing to do it. De-
rangement of the brain or nerves are
causes of headache, fits, dizziness, flutter-
ing of the heart, sexual weakness, Sleep
lessness, neuralgia, cold hands and feet.
A free trial bottle of DR.. Miles Nervine
the latest and the most successful cure
for all these diseases may be had at 0. A.

MILTON BENSON, Marshal,

In a number of neighboring cities
snide jewelry men have had their prop
erty raided by mobs who are morally
much lower than the fakirs whose prop
erty they confscate. In every case in
which officers interfere to protect the
home banditti from the operations of
swindlers, the mob should be ran, into
jail with the professional swindlers. They
are fully as dishonest and are lacking in
the qualities of courage and shrewdness
which must be accorded to the profess
sional swindlers. There should be no
protection given such dupes, except that
which comes through punishment.
