PETITION
Of the Worlds Women Christian Temperance Union, for the
 Protection of the Home,

Of the Worlds Women Christian
 Temperance Union, for the
 Protection of the Home.
 Honored Rulers, Representative and Brothers:
 We, your petitioners, although be- longing to the physically weaker sex, are strong of heart to love our homes, onr native land and the worlds fami- ly of nations.
 We know that the clear brains and pure hearts make honest lives and happy homes, and that by these the nations prosper, and he time is brought nearer when the world shall be at peace.
 We know that indulgence Tn alcohol and opium. and in other wees which disgrace our social life, makes misery for ali the world. and most of all for us and for our children.
 We know that stlmulants and opiates are sold under legal guarantee which makes the government partners m the trafic, by accepting as revenue a portion of the profits and We know with shame that they are often forced by treaty upon populations, either ignorant or unwilling.
 We know that the law might do much. now left undone. to raise the moral tone of society, and render vice difficult.
 We have no power to prevent these great iniQuities benealh which the whole world groans. but you have pow CT to redeem the honor of the nations from an indefensible compicity.
 We therefore come to you with the united voices of representative women of every land, beseecbing you to raise the standard of the law to that of Christian morals. to strip away the safeguards and sanctions of the state from the drink traiic and the opium trade, and to protect our homes by the total prohibition of these curses of civ ilization throughout all the territory over which our government extends.
 NAMES RESIDENCES.
 We must have one million names this year. Will not men and women, youths and maidens, boys and girls, who love the great cause of home pro- lection. paste this petition on nice, white sheet of paper and circulate 1t to the best of their ability, sending the names to Miss Alice E.

Yesterday, Pioneers day, was one OF
the biggest days in every way ever seen
IN the Bethesda assembly grounds,
The morning was almost perfect
Shortly after noon hesky clouded over
and rain seemed imminent, but this
did not dampen the enthusiasm Of the
assembly. People began arriving in
large numbers and by noon the grounds
wsre fairly Overlooking. Wagons aud
burgies came in very large numbers
and the turnstiles were kept on the
move during the entire day, The vast
crowd was variously estimated from
$500 to 5000, and all seemed to be i'm
monsely pleased.
The grounds presented gala appear
apce. Every cottage was almost cover
ed With aags and bunting; in fact, the
stars and stripes were seen almost every
where. This special display was in
honor OF the distinguished guest, Gov
ernor William Mckinley, OF OHIO,
Governor Mckinley arrived at 1884
over tho B. & O. and was met by an i'm
mense crowd. As he alighted he was
given three rousing cheers, which he
acknowledged by bowling and lifting his
hat, Preceded by the Jr. 0. U. A. NJ,
band Of Bellaire and escorted by the
programme committee and board OF
managers tile governor walked over to
the park. He held an informal recep.
lion ut 10 o'clock in the auditorium and
nearly everyone shook his hand.

The band rendered q delightful con.

Mckinley spoke. II was by Jar the
largest crowd ever gathered in the audi
forum. A perfect ovation was ten

dreds OF people stood during the gov
ernor's address.
AS was expected, the address was en-
tirely free from politics and was adj
dressed especially to the pioneers. The
closest attention was given during the
entire speech and the speaker was in
terrupted several times by hearty APP
plause. Governor Mckinley left at
42l for Columbus. Vespers were held
at 6:45 and at 1920 another delightful
concert was given by the Ariel Sex.

his exploit yesterday, he can be looked
at as a likely candidate whenever Colo.
mel McNichol decides to lay aside the
honors that appertain to the Office OF
police chief,
Colmar was doing his regular news
beat on tho South Side about noon yes
terday, being on South Jacob street,
when he noticed suspicious looking
character enter John Waifords grocery
store, while two others, equally suspi-
cious looking, waited on the outside.
Colmar's suspicion WAS aroused, so he
watched the trio. The same man went
up the street and entered Schultz's
shoe store, while the others went in n
different direction. The man soon
came out with two ,pairs Of shoes in
boxes under his urn. Colmar immedi-
ately knew that tho man was thief,
and followed him up an alley, The
man took the shoes out OF the boxes
and threw the latter away. Colmar
strolled up to him unconcernedly,
whereupon the man accosted hiE,
asking il he didn't want pair OF
shoes, Fritz replied that he could get
along with new pair and proposed that
they go to his uncle's, as he didn't have
money to buy the shoes, for which the
fellow wanted two dollars. The man
bit and Colmar quietly encircled him
with the folds OF stern justice, taking
him not to an uncle's, but to County
Constable Richard Bakers on the South
Side, who Immediately arrested the
man, who had told Colmar his name
was Harry Roedker, and that he was a
German from Cincinnati. He was taken
before Justice Joseph A. Arkle, and
later was brought up to jail, charged
with larceny.
Last evening the police we're on the
outlook for the two accomplices of
Roedker, and arrested two men who
gave their names a. Joseph MCCort and
Henry Steure. Officers Moran and
Trischler made the arrests.
