And the Local High Aver
ages First in League
Contest.
CLYDE CUMMINGS OF HAM
MOND WINS 1ST PLACE.

Neither of the speakers from River
Falls won first place in the league
contest at Hammond last Friday,
but the positions won by the two
give this school higher average
than any other school in the league,
and River Falls is we'll satisfied.
One of it's speakers won second and
will share with Hammond the honor
of representing the league in the
district contest to be held in this
city on May Is.
The contests of the. St. Croix
league are always good. This was
no exception. II was excellent. 1t
had some surprises, too. Hudson,
quite naturally, expected to score a
triumph. Hudson S two represen-
tatives had won in both league and
district contests in previous years
and had been to Madison. The adj
vantage was theirs. Hudson might
we'll expect first and second places.
But i'll luck was with them. Miss
Meta Hanson, on whom they count
ed so much, was sick and unable to
speak. Her place was taken by
Phil Fulton. He was good, but he
was not Miss Hanson. He could
not be counted on for certain scor-
ing. Still, Miss Mida Lawson was
left, and with her in the contest, it
was almost certain that Hudson
would have first place. SO Hudson
felt. So felt the other schools. Nat
ura11y, the other schools wanted to
win over Hudson. They scarcely
hoped to do so. The result, how
ever, placed representatives of three
schools, and three schools, ahead of
Hudson. That was the first sur
prise. The second surprise was in
the excellent showing made by
Hammond, and the third in therank
secured by Prescott, new school
in the league.
The speakers in the contest, with
their homes and selections and final
rank, were as follows:
1. Clyde Cummings, Hammond, Abraham
Lincoln.
2. Bessie Odell, River Falls, ''How La Rue
Stakes were Lost, -
g. Mollie Stickney, Prescott, Entertaining
Her Big Sisters Beau
4. M'da Lawson, Hudson, ''The Heart of Old
Hickory"
5. Glenn Rounsevel, River Falls ''Vesuvius
and the Egyptian"
6. Henry Holman, Prescott, Extract from
Address at Galfeld's Funeral
z. Lettie Nelson Hammond "Spartacus to
the Gladiators.'
8. Phil Fulton, Hudson, "Chariot Race at
Alexandria
g. Ethel Cuddy, New Richmond, Sister and y
10. Alice Early, New Richmond, making Him
Feel at Home"
H. Bert leary, Baldwin, Supposed Speech
of John Adams"
IL. Anna Van Hoof, Baldwin, 'Pledge with
Wine
The music for the contest was
furnished by Mrs. Thatcher and the
Ladies Glee Club of the Normal.
Hammond out-did itself and all it's
friends in entertaining the visitors.
In spite of the large number who
were in the village from the other
schools of the league, every one was
we'll taken care Of and after the con-
test an elegant reception was given
the visitors in the hotel. Hudson
was disappointed, but showed the
proper spirit in defeat by cheering
the winners. They two, Clyde
Cummings and Bessie Odell, will
speak with representatives of other
leagues in the district contest in the
Methodist church of this city next
week, Friday, May IS.

Another Effort To Be Made to ~-s-sss6'sfe
 Their Release.
 In the excitement over the settle menf of the trolley strike many peopfe believed that the two Quinn boys, James and Thomas, who have been ID fail for month or more in default of a bond of $2,OO0, were forgotten This is not so, by all accounts. Steps have been taken for the release of the boys but, on account Of the absence of the state attorney, John F. Kellogg, from the city, and also of Clerk Marsh od the superior court, proceedings are ne eessarily slow.
 The boys would not have been ta- ken to jail had not their bondsnnen surrendered them, and, as was said al that time, their surrender was brought about solely by the bondsmen desiring to be released from this responsibility 1t brought about no new developments in the cases pending in the superior court against them and the other boys nor did it in any way change tho status of the eases.
 Upon the return of Assistant State'f Attorney Kellogg from the shore, the boys guardian, Attorney O'Neill, vii take some measures to procure theil release.

in his own company without having to correct his fellow officers.
 Those persons who were present oL the camp grounds early this morning had an opportunity of witnessing the pitching of shelter tents by the Sec ond regiment The work was done we'll. Several rockies in Company G and Company A experienced a little difficulty in pitching the tents. Private John Hayes of Company c tried hard to pitch his upside down and would have succeeded except superior off, cer interfered.
 Captain Fitzpatrick of Company G takes exception to the statement made in a New London paper by retired officer of the National Guard to the ef- feet that the khaki uniforms are never cleaned and are consequently liable to cause disease, etc. He says he doesn't know about the other companies, but he does know about Company G, and that is that the uniforms are gathered together after camp and are sent to a laundry.
 A noticeable feature of the camp is the almost entire absence of excessive drinking throughout the entire brigade. So noticeable Is this and so remarka- ble that it has been the subject of much comment Furthermore. there | are fewer acts of rowdyism and the soldiers in general are less oolsterous | and noisy than in the past. Soldiers who have been at many encampnents state that they have never seen so little drinking of the cup that inebriates. This does not mean that'a the soldiers are temperance ad- vocates or do not indulge in an occa- sional glass of the flowing spirits; but it does mean that they no longer think that it is necessary to get crazy drunk each day, to avoid as l many drills as possible, to turn things upside down in the company street, in order to enjoy camp life. Few drunks are seen on the camp grounds. It is possible, however, that the ammunition is being saved for later in the week.

 Camp Chambe erlain, Mantle, Aug 13. The weather of Wednesday was a repetition of that Of the first day at Camp Chamberlain. It was beautiful The suns rays cast forth much heat. but the atmosphere was relieved by a cool, refreshing breeze, which blew across the beautiful camp grounds from the Sound. The soldiers spirits were therefore much higher than they were the day before, when the sky was cloudy nearly the entire day. and the rain came down at intervals. The number of visitors to the grounds yes- terday was very large. Every train to Mantle brought crowd of persons from all over the state. The majority of them will spend the remainder of the week at Mantle.

is SURE TO SUCCEED
Shoshone's New Lighting PROPOSE
tlon Will be a Winner-Mr.
Hayes Is Well Pleased.

| Robert Hayes of Pocatello, ha.
been in town this week closing con
tracts for electric lights to be fur
nished bv the Shoshone Electric
Light and Power Company. A
Representative OF The Journal hao
a very plea ant visit with Mr.
Hayes and learned that he was
meeting with very satisfactory sue
cess in placing lights, in fact, Mr.
Hayes said that he was more than
pleased with the reception he was
receiving f ON the business men
and believed that the number of
lights which would be taken would
exceed his expectations. Mr.. Hayes
said that although the plant would
be installed with eastern capital it
was his aim in such institutions TO
localize them as much as possible.
and that he had been able to secure
F. R. Gooding, F. w. Gooding, J.
w. Waldron and G. NJ. Hemphill,
as stockholders to the extent of one
share of stock each, he holding the
balance of the stock. In this way
it was possible to secure board of
directors composed partly of local
men. He also said that local help
would be used so far as possible in
the installation and opel alton of
the system.
Mr.. Hayes expec's to place an
order for the necessary wire before
January l, and to do the wiring be-
fore spring SO as to have no delay
on account of that feature of the
work after the balance OF the plant
is ready for operation. 1t is on
this account that he is securing his
now, that ne may be able |
to estimate approximately what
amount of wire may be needed.
He said in this connection that it
S likely that Sho hone will have
he lighting system in operation
much earlier next summer than
vas at first anticipated
Mr.. Hayes will go to Boise to-
light on some legal business, and
Fill return tomorrow and complete
is work on the contracts. Per-
ons wishing lights can find Mr..
