church, PittstOn, this morning Rev.
Father Garvey. the vicar general of

on the strike and the shooting at Shen-

causes trouble.
The speaker was of the opinion that
the strike would be a long drawn out
affair and that the men might just as
well accept the inevitable and prepare
for the siege To better prepare his
parishiOnerS who were among the
strikers, Father Garvey said he wanted
all the strikers in the church next Sun

SUNDAY SCHOOL PICNIC.
The M. E. People Have Fine Day, Big
Crowd and Nice Time Friday,

The annual picnic of the NJ. E. Sun
day school held on Friday last was a
very successful affair and thoroughly
enjoyed by the large number present
Several teams with hay racks. besides
other vehicles, had been engaged and
all were needed. The main body left
the church at 10 a. m., and with ban
nerS flying drove through the city and
down to Port Edwards where the pic
mic was held on one of the most beau
tiful of the many islands that dot the
Wisconsin river. Swings, hammOcks
and boats had been prepared the day
before and soon these were apprODri-
ated by the young people who pro-
Ceeded to make themselves at home
When the call to dinner sounded
everybody was ready, and such a
dinner, And the appetiteS were pro-
pOrtional to the dinner. Sandwiches
beans, bread, cake, cookies, pickles,
etc, disappeared as if by magic. The
capacity of the boys and girls for ice
cream and lemonade was something
phenomenal, Such heaping dishes,
And the way some of them schemed
to get a second dish. Let those bows
alone for making their way in the
world. Plenty of ice and fine drinking
water had been provided by Ernest
EichStead through whose kindness the
use of the grounds was secured. The
day was ideal, a cooling breeze temper
ing the heat of the sun, and adding
very materially to the comfort of the
picnicerS. The day was one to be long
remembered by those present. Too
much credit cannot be given to Mrs.
T. 4. Lipke, the efficient superin-
tendent. and her assistants for the
efforts put forth in making the affair
such a fine success.
