LORNA is VERY ANGRY.
Her Name Is Spelled With an
"E0 Not an ''I.''
If Pick Smith Isn't Burnt at
the Stake
She Will Not Come-Her Majesty to
BE Satisfied at Whatever Cost.

While the thousands of people were
happy in looking at the big parade
this morning, there was great sorrow
and unbounded grief, whice ever you
prefer, in the camp Of the High Rollers
KarnivaI Knights
Lorena positively refused to appear
as the queen Of their parade Friday
night
VIII Haskell, as the middleman be-
tween Lorena and the Knights, got this
message from her this morning:
My name is 'Lorena,
You're spelling it wrong;
And I have decided
I won't go along"
This message dumfounded Mr.. Has
kell greatly, and having no beard of his
own to tear he tore several handouts
out of a backing brush and fastened to
interview the board of Knights.
Something must be done. A great
deal of expense had already been incur
red in building clouds and ordering an
extra car load of sunshine to be used on
the night of the parade.
1t was Immediately proposed that an
offering should be burnt right away.
So, for two hours during the JOY pc
low, Haskell and TOrringtOn stood on
top Of the Columbian building with
great drops of red and blue Precipitation
standing out on their pOcketbOOks burn
ing red fire and campaign buttons
At II o'clock LORNA sent the follow
ing message which brought great con-
SternatiOn;
It was:
Burn Pick Smith to a stake
Or a stake to Pick Smith,
It's the only thing
III be satisfied with"
Now Pick Smith was entirely too good
a fellow to lose, and besides he wasn't
responsible for the outrage anyway.
It was finally suggested by man who
owes him So that Paul TOrringtOn be
substituted since it was not a question
of obesity, but the matter was finally
compromised by burning two stakes to
each other and as LORNA doesn't know
the difference, she will be here.
Haskell and Torrin gtOn andstheir car
penters are now at work with hammers
and paint brushes on LOrina's float.
1t was simply matter of punching
LOrina's go out and now she is more
out Of sight than ever.

BURNS UNDERWEAR FIRE.
Investigation Shows That the Fire
was IncendiarV.

Worcester. Mass. Sept. 2s.-Consider-
able excitement has been caused in this
city by the fire in the underwear fac
tory of VIM. H. Burns & Co. this morn
ing. Burns is the man who displayed
the red flag of anarchy on the front of
his building with Bryan's portrait on
it when the presidential candidate visi-
ted the city last Friday. This action
caused a great deal of unfavorabIe
comment. An investigation made to-
day by State Fire Marshal Holt and
Chief Engineer Vaughn, of the fire de-
partment, convinces them that the fire
is of incendiary origin, as. evidence of
kerosene having been sprinkled around
is very manifest. One interesting cpl
sOde of the fire was the following tele-
gram sent within half an hour after
the fire was discovered, to Mr.. Bryan
at Bath, Ne, by Dell D. Morgan, ex-
chairman of the Democratic city com
mittee: Thank God, justice receives
her just dues. Burns underwear fac
tory, which display ed the red flag in
your honor Friday afternoon, is in
hames.''

TO cross tho old road at right angles, and the

to stump the county against the bonds, and there
