Picnic of 1897 Refreshes the PiO-
neers Greatly.
The Ramsey County Junior Pioneers
took their eighth annual outing yes
terday at Lake Shore, White Bear
lake, and all the members and their
friends who attended declared they
spent very pleasant day. The early
train took out quite a large number
and the after dinner trains brought
out another large crowd who went
especially to witness the sports, which
were many and varied. In fact, they
were the feature of the outing. After
a basket dinner had been partaken Of,
the Juniors all sought out the ath
letic grounds to witness the game OF
base ball between the upper town and
lower town Juniors, the fifth that these
two factions had contested on the dia-
mond, but the first the upper town
boys have won, and that in a splendid
game of ball by a score Of to 5. Fol-
lowing were the participants in the
exciting game:

son.
Five innings were played and while
there were several amusing incidents,
there were also some very fine plays.
The features of the game were the bat
ting of Reilly and the throwing of the
ball by Robert, and Incidentally, the
high and lofty tumbling of the latter
whenever one of the lower town boys
famed the air. About the middle of
the game, ex-President Al Schweizer
sent cease of cider CD to the pitchers
box and it was feared at one time that
darkness might interfere with the finish
of the game. However, all the boys
rounded to in good shape under the
skillful manipulation Of Umpires Wag-
ner and Johnson to the motto of How
Can We Lcse,' and finished the game
in royal style

pointed specifying how the appoint

HIS OWN GUN KILLED HIM.
Tragic Death of "a POacher Near
Sandstone.

State Game superintendent Fullerton
received word yesterday of the death
of John Kelly, near Sandstone. Kelly
was a poacher and has given the game
warden a good deal of trouble shooting
deer. 1t was while engaged in his ia
vorite pastime that he met his death.
He had set a gun in a deer pass, ty-
ing one end of string to the trigger
and the other to tree in such a man
ner that a deer passing would be sure
to cause the gun to be discharged.
But it happened that he himself passed
that way and forgot about the gun.
The result proved fatal. The charge
from the gun entered his thigh, in
f1icting an ugly wound which he had
apparently endeavored to bind up, but
he could not staunch the flow of blood
and was dead when discovered.

An exchange says: suppose an editor
every time he hears OF man criticising
him or his paper in public should re-
taliate by holding up to the public gaze
the faults and short cOmings Of such fault
finder. The criticiser would think him
self terribly outraged and would thirst
for the editors blood. The patient beast
Of burden, the country journalist, never
does this except under great provocation.
1t isn't because he is afraid, but because
he isn't mean enough. He hears his
paper lied worthless because its editor,
in doing his duty, has stepped on some
body's toes. Such persons should receive
no more mercy from the editor than they
show to him."
