THE EAGLE SCREAMED.
Celebrations In Honor Of 1ndepen.

Parts OF the County,

dence Day Held In Various
Parts OF the County.
Let no one make the mistake of be-
lieving that, because we 'une live out here
upon what eastern people consider the
ragged edge of civilization, we are not up
to snuff when it comes to taking part in
the various patriotic functions. The
Fourth was celebrated and re.celebrated
in this county, aud, if the amount Of
powder destroyed, ice cream devoured
and spare change thrown around pro-
miscuously be an evidence Of the return
of prosperity, prosperity is already here.
There were three separate and distinct
celebrations in this free and independent
borough of Emmons.
Ar EMMoNsBuRe.
Emmonsburg led of in the matter Of
festivities. Saturday night is not q good
night for dancing. because. shove back
the hands of the clock as you may, Sun
day will get there after awhile and add
another sin to the burden placed upon
the shoulders of poor humanity. Whether
or not this reason intervened agains,
Saturday Observance, or whether Satur
day was not chosen because of desire tc
pay proper respect to the religious beliet
of q number of worthy citizens who re
side not many miles away from the picnic
grounds, or for both reasons, we know
not. But, at any rate. Friday was tn
day chosen for the celebration.
The exercises took place in the grow

AT W1LL1AMapoRr.

The Williamsport celebration took
place on Monday. Had any attempt
whatever been made to organize, appoint
committees, etc., the affair would have
been success in every way. The day
was pleasant and the crowd one of goodly
numbers; but no systematic arrangements
had been made for their entertainment.
No one seemed to know when the exer-
cises were to begin, no one was on hand
to introduce strangers, and the school.
house was kept locked until after 2
O'Clock. Mr.. 7. p. Lee had been appoint.
ed marshal Of the day, but he was unable
to find head or tail to the affair. A pro-
gram had been sent to the newspaper
and published by their editors in good
faith. but it 10 not likely that they will be
bamboozled into making any more such
publications unless there 10 somebody re.
sponsible for the carrying out of the pro-
gram published. There is one here 'at
Billsport, at least, that will not hereafter
publish notices of entertainments of any
kind unless it is shown conclusiyely that
there is systematic organization back Of
the effort.
As everything in the school. house was
disarranged. even when the house was
finally opened it could not be used for the
exercises. Not even dry goods box had
been provided as platform for the "elo.
cutionary" part Of the exercises, for
which certain men had been slated with.
out their knowledge.
But it was Independence Day and the
crowd was good -natured and determined
TO enjoy themselves. When 1t became 90
late that the exercises must begin II they
were to begin atisll. the crowd took mat.
ters IN their own hands. A vacant space
on one Of the benches was improvised for
rostrum, and Mr.. ]. n. Roop, BY re.
guest opened the exercises of the day by
introduclug States Attorney Armstrone,
who, In clear voice and with careful in.

and began with the customary reading of
"the declaration" Mr.. Andrus was the
reader, and he gave the grand old protest
against tyranny in q mastery manner.
Next was an address by D. Il. streeter.
Then the people adjourned for dinner
After dinner the people enjoyed them
selves for awhile in social converse. Then
the races began at the egg-shaped track in
the valley.
The first was pony race. First money
went to Barney Burbage's horse and
second to the Anderson mare.
In the free.for.all race the Baumgart.
uer horse was first. and the Plod Green
horse second.
After the contests on the track, the
crowd returned to the home grounds and
the foot races began. There were two
races, in each of which Eddie Coover was
successful, with Walter Kyes second.
Then. another race was gotten up to test
the running powers Of young man named
Kelley. Coover. kyes and Kelley were
the contestants, and they came in in the
order named.
Then there were . lot Of foot races-toc
numerous to keep track of'-for boys
and some Of the contests were spirited
There was wrestling match in which
John Procunier won. Editor Patterson

and number Of boys foot races ant
wrestling matches were the result o.
nickel and dime collections taken up b,

amusing of these was wrestling bout be
tween Masters Walter and Harry Lynn
Walter is couple of years more vener
able than Harry. and wears big boys
clothes, while Harry is clad in waist AM

Story Of the Killing of
the Spioer Family,
Near Winona.
He Says "Me, Too," to
Holytrack's Written
Confession No.2,
And States That Cou.
dotte Had No Part
in the Crime,

Last week the Record gave Holytrack's
second written confession" in which he |
asserted with minute detail that he and
lreland-and they alone-committed the
murders. This week we print q "confes-
sion' by "Me-Too" Ireland. which is /
supplemental to the one made by Holy
track and printed in our last issue. The
Record has stated that three so.callcd
Confessions" were furnished by the pair
OF young scoundrels who make little dis
tinction between actual murder by their
own hands and legal murder through
their perjured testimony. But 1t appears
that their very first" statement was not
reduced to writing. In that statement,
as the Record has been informed,
the young villains asserted that they hap.
pened at the 5picer residence after the
murders had been committed, and that
Blackhawk (whom we all now know was
not presently and Coudotte were there and
had killed the Spiccr family, and that
Blackhawk took them (Holytrack and
lreland) down into the timber, and, under
threats of death, made them promise to
say nothing about the perpetrators of the
crime. It is knowledge Of the fact that
these self-confessed assassins have told
| four separate and distinct stories regard
ing the murders that has caused good
many people in this county to doub,
whether the villains lied or told the truth
in the Coudotte trial. And the least thai
can be said is that there are many peopl,
who would have felt better satisfied O
Coudotte's guilt had there been some
thing in the shape of evidence to corroh
crate the stories told by the murderou
whelps on the witnesses stand. Our reader
can believe this story or the one told be
fore judge and jury, as they may see fit
True. the assassins were under oath whel
in district court, but, is it not an insult &
any ones intelligence to ask him to be
, lieve that men who would commit tn
, greater crime of murder would have an,
! qualms of conscience over the lesse
crime of perjury? Following il Ireland

followed. Also, q soul-stirring effort on
the part of Mr.. Jeremiah Cole. the noted
Cherry Grove orator. who made an elo.
quent comparison of the results of ancient
and modern civilization. The audience
was very much interested and spell.
bound; but, owing to the fact that it was
seen that the horses were gathering for
the races out on the track, the people re.
luctantly tore themselves away before the
orator had reached his peroration.
The races were quite interesting. In
the pony race (two In three). the Benz
pony won, With Manuel Glaser's pony
second.
In the free.for.all. the struggle was be.
tween horses owned respectively by Franz
Baumgartner and F. H. Cotton. The
Baumgartner steed took the first heat. In
the second heat the start was bad, and
was TO the advantage of the Cotton horse,
which took the heat. In the third heat
the start was worse. Mr.. Lee had stated
before the races began that when the
word "go" had been given, no attention
should be paid to calling back. The word
was given, the Cotton horse few the
track, and the Bsumgartner horse gal
loped over the course alone, winning the
race.
One of the prettiest races Of the day
was the ladies' race, between the Benz
horse, ridden by Miss Vie Corey; the Bur-
bage horse, ridden by Mrs. Barney Bur
bage, and the Cotton horse. ridden by
Miss Grace Yeater. The Cotton horse
few the track at the quarter. Miss Corey
was the winner.
The boys foot race had large number
of starters. and was won by Master Paul
Kurtz, who went over the course like
CREASED lightning" beating several boys
head taller than himself. The dozen
other boys were in pile, and all seemed
to be second"
Owing to the fact that the delay in be
ginning the exercises compelled the cut
ting short of everything, the hour Wa
too late, after the races, for the baseball
game to take place.
But the people had really gotten con
siderable enjoyment out of the afte,
Moons sport; and whatever had bee
lacking was more than made up at nigh
when the Woodmen came to the rescu
with one Of the most successful bal
these parts have yet known. The mus
was furnished by Mr.. Laquee and daugl
ter, of Burleigh county, and it was good,
good enough to sit all night and liste
|, to-even il one did not wish to dane
The hotels provided supper at midnigh
and the party did not break up un,
, daylight; before the close Miss LaQu,
entertaining the company with songs al
dances which were thoroughly appr
|, ciated. 4.

from which to get crowd, and can 9

start is made.
