IMMENSE
Crowd at Summit
Lake Park.
Hundreds Unable to
Get Seats.
The Opening Bill Pleased Well,
With One Exception.

The local public has been hungry for
some time for the park season to open
and they took anxious advantage of
the fact that Monday night was time
for the opening of the casino at Summit
Lake park, to the extent that the thea
tire. was filled long before the opening
Of the performance, and hundreds o.
people, unable to obtain seats, We're
forced to return to their homes dis
appointed. The opening was an entire
success, and many of last years pat
rons flocked about the manager OF
amusements, Prof. Lou G.. Lee, and
the proprietors of the Casino, after the
performance and congratulated them
warmly on the pleasing results of their
efforts to provide good bill.
Bruins and Nina, who headed the
show, were easily worth the promi-
nence that was given them in the ad-
vertising, and their paper-tearing act
and quiet comedy were far more clever
than was expected of the combination.
They sing pleasingly together, and
Nina's picture dance, with the illus
trations for songs sung at the same
time being thrown upon her draperies,
was distinct feature
Carmanelli and Lucille, who have
appeared here before in the same act,
made very good, and pleased their au-
dience, despite the fact that they have
not introduced single bit of new bus
mess.
The trick bone solos of Mccoy, of
Mccoy and Knight, made friends for
the players Immediately, and Miss
Knight demonstrated that she has a
sweet little voice in some solo work.
Mortimer f. Bassett, whistler and
imitator, come on the stage in q quiet
manner which made his audience be-
lieve for time that he was going to
disappoint them, but his whistling
solos and limitations soon won the
house, and the applause. awarded his
efforts was spontaneous and deafen-
ing. His barnyard concert was pro-
and his imitation of passing pas
senger train was most natural.
An act of mediocrity, which de-
tracted somewhat from the pleasure
of the evening, was that of Billy O'Day
in black face singing and monologue.
O'Day's first song was off the key,
and although the second was better,
the unpleasant impression still re-
mained. There was an element of sug-
gestiveness in his monologue, also,
which will be removed at once. The
show was good, on the whole, and
pleased well, and with repetitions Of
this kind of a bill, good business may
be expected all season. Good music
was furnished by Prof. Lou G. Lee,
pianist, and Prof. Lantz, violinist.
There have also been several improve
ments at the park. The stage has been
widened the extent of the dressing
rooms, which are now in the rear.
There will be no outside acts staged
this season, the money which other
wise would have gone into this feature
will be expended for acts to be placed
on the stage, and better shows are
promised for the season than have ever
appeared at this popular resort before.

IS A FINE SURF BATHRR2
Grace with Which He Meets the Over
 rushing Waves

The best surf bather in the world
 is a wild duck, according to a tray- eler who has just returned from the
 seashore. T was walking along the shore one afternoon,2 ,2 said this trav- eler, "when I saw a wild duck resting. He rose in a little while, Yaddled awk- yardly to the water and began to sm in out gracefully to sea. There came toward him a rush of white foam from wave that had broken some twenty yards away Hefung himself breast foremost into that swi1l, get ting through 1t as finely as a good football man gets through a rush line, Next he met big, lazy swell This he foated over buoyantly. But now some five yards in front of him pow erfulwave broke and there came seeth- ing in fierce whirlpool of froth. The wild bird waited till the strong rush of foam was almost on him, and then. like any other wise bather, he diyed, not to emerge until the water was calm again and the danger past A moment later a great wave stood arched, about to break in front of him, and with a quick movement of the wings he shot up through the thin curve of its overhanging crest. He was inyincible, for he knew bathing from alpha to omega. Out and out he foated, and at last the soft twilight enyeloped him. "-Chicago Chronicle.

THE CONQUERED BANNER.

"The Conquered Banner" was writ ten shortly after Lees surrender and read at fair in Charleston, s. C., where it was received with great en- thusiasm. Father Ryan is the author. Furl that Banner, for 'tis weary; Round it's staff 'tis dropping dreary;
 Furl it, fold itr-it is best; For there's not a man to wave it, And there's not sword to save it, And there's not one left to lave it In the blood that heroes gave it; And it's foes now scorn and brave it;
 Furl it, hide it-let it restI Take that Banner down; 'tis tattered; Broken is it's staff and shattered; And the valiant hosts are scattered,
 Over whom it floated high. Oh, 'tis hard for us to fold it, Hard to think there's none to hold it, Hard that those who once unrolled it
 Now must furl it with | sigh! Furl that Banner-furl it sadlyl Once ten thousands hailed it gladly, And ten thousands wildly, madly,
 Swore it should forever wave; Swore that foemans sword should ney'r Hearts like theirs entWined discover, Till that flag should float forever
 Ger their freedom or their gravel Furl itl for the hands that grasped it, And the hearts that fondly clasped it, Cold and dead are lying low; And that Banner-it is trailing, While around it sounds the wailing
 Of it's people in their woe. For, though conquered, they adore it, Love the cold, dead hands that bore it Weep for those who fell before it, Pardon those who trailed and tore it; And oh, wildly they deplore it,
 Now to furl and fold it so! Furl that Banner True 'tis gory, Yet 'tis wreathed around with glory, And twill live in song and story 1 Though it's folds are in the dust For it's fame on brightest pages, Penned by poets and by sages, Shall go sounding down the ages
 Furl it's fold though now we must. Furl that Banner, softly, slowly! Treat it gentlY-it is holy,
 For it droops above the dead. Touch it not-unfold it never;
 Let it droop there, furled forever
 For it's peoples hopes are fled.

inhabitants of Mars.

That Il people superior in in telligence 10 those of the earth inhabit the planet Mais is a con clusion that will be set forth by Prof. G. W. Hough, head of the department of astronomy of Northwestern University, in a re- port which he is compiling of his summer obsei vations from the Dearborn observatory. He as- serts this as q probability based on recent discoveries, and adds that, of course, it may never be established positively,
 The conclusion includes the ac- ceptance of the theory of evolu- ton and the statements of lead ing astronomers that climatic con ditions of Mars aie the same as ot the earth, Tie possibility of Venus and Mercury being inhabi- ted Is admitted because they have solidified, and the intense heat re- suling from thelr proximity to the sun may have been overcome oy deeper covering of atr' os- phere, None of the other plrn- cts, in the opinion of the profess or, could contain animal life.

men of modern eras have ever achieved.
 How far the sudden and tragic death of President Mckinley is to affect the course of the req ublio of which he was the head cannot yet be estimated. He had but spoken preeeats that are yet in the balance of public Judgement he had but enunciated ii destiny for the nation that may yet be made, or varied, as political and ambitious self-interests may de- termlne or may be prevented from determining. As to these he yet lives in his words and the wisdom of them will be tried by tune.
 But in thls first memorial day, when the people in many parts of the nation will pause to devote thought tn his life, praise to lis work and consideration to his heh and patriotic purposes, par lisanshlp and seotionalisn must be silent and absent. The work of William Mckinley was largely party work, but the heart of the man was sincerely Ame rican and honestly affected for the greatest good to his people. Mistaken in measures the best of men will often be, but the honest hearts of seventy millions of people will make no mistake iii honoring the memory of William McKin- ley as that of a fellow -citizen. d friend and a president who wish- ed no higher name or fame than that he served his God and coun- try with truth, honor and helpful ness. ~Atlan.a Constitution.

So far as we are able to learn there IS no premium on the Records opinions, and we have the satisfaction of knowing that our home people unreservedly in dorsed every word The Journal said on the subject. We know that we were right, and that is some consolation. But the Re cord probably never heard of that distinguished gentleman who de clared that he would rather be right than be President.
