he went down to Versailles TO try case
against an attorney who didn't know as
much law as some lawyers 1 know. but had
that gift OF making most people think he
was as well read and knew as much law as
any attorney in his part Of the State. Mr..
Bagot wasn't man to be bluned. During
the trial Mr.. Bagot got UP and corrected
his opponent on point of law.

correct me when IL comes TO a point of
law" said the attorney, looking down con-

CHICAGO'S CENTENNIAL.
An Elaborate Programme Being Prepared for the Grand Cciebra-
 ton in September Next

Chicago, May 1T.-The enteItain- ment committee of the Chicago cen ternial celebration has mapped out an elaborate and interesting programme for every day and night between Sep tember and October !. There will be an Illuminated night industrial pa rade, an illuminated night automobile parade, military pageant, automo- bile races and an athletic tournament, water polo, swimming races, rowing regattas and centennial yacht races for championship trophies. Arrange ments will be made for an old set tiers reunion. which probably will take place under a huge canvas on the lake front, and also for centennial re- ligious exercises in al! the churches. The two most important features of the celebration. however. will be a naval battle off the lake front on the first night of the jubilee, and the re- production of the Chicago of 1903 on the lake front
 The reproduction of old Fort Dear born will take the form of an Indian village inhabited by 400 Ojibways, Pot tawattomies and Menominees, who will come to Chicago from Canada for this special purpose. These are the tribes that inhabited Chicago when John Kenzie arrived here hundred years ago.
