THE TIMES was in error last week
in stating that in the case OF Quayle
VS.. Warden the latter was given
office rent, which he had been kept
out of by injunctional orders. Quayle
appeared, but the case was taken to
Ashland in order to accommodate Mr.
Sanborn. The case was tried in
Ashland but no final decision has
been rendered as yet.
Do not fail to take in the big free
open air show all next week Alb
solutely free, no collection. Ladies
invited, nothing offensive, tolerated
strictly moral and refined. Begin
ing either Saturday or Monday
night a portable platform will be
located on side street off Bayfield,
street on post office avenue and a
free open air show will be given,
consisting of moving pictures, dane
ing, singing etc. Ladies especially
invited. A genuine diamond ring
will be given away as present.
Judge A. M. Warden clipped the
wings of the independence eagle at
Pratt the Fourth The Judge says
that the venerable J. l.. Sayles
occupied the platform with him, and
when the address was completed
turned to him and said: Judge,
you are democrat and I'm a
justice of the peace, but COLL darn me
if them amt my sentiments. (" The
Judge needed no further evidence
that the address had been well re-
ceived.
That the Fourth of July was not
the bowling success that was antici-
pated was no fault of the local COM
mittees, who had arranged every
thing in the best of shape for the oc-
casion. But the weather man had
evidently not been consulted, and he
put up some of the rankest ar ticle in
his stock for the day. The day was
cold and foggy, and many spent
most of the time lowering about the
heating STOVES. However the streets
were thronged throughout the day,
and besides the local people several
hundred \ from out of town were
here. The girl with the white dress
and light colored slippers, with a
bright blue ribbon encircling her
slender waist was very much in evil
dence, but the dampness and cool
ness mace her look far from comfort
able. OF bad jags there was more
than a satisfactory number. There
was little chance for the races that
were scheduled, land nearly every
thing in that line was declared off.
The game of base ball between
Washburn and Odanah resulted in a
victory for the local team, the score
being nine and eight. The game
was very creditable one, and the
visitors enforced by few Ashland
ties succeeded in making the Colum-
bian Guards hurry to win the game.
The town was gaily decorated, and
from every flag pole the stars 1anc
stripes ascended to the breezes. In
the Gun Club Shoot Washburn die
up the visitors from Ashland, and
Monroe Sprague walked off with the
honors Of the day in workmanship.
