EARTH WILL THROW
MOON IN THE SHADE

If there is a rift in the clouds to-
night, Minneapolitans who are out in
the moonlight will see that glorious orb
go under four hours eclipse.
At sos the first shadow of the earth
will touch it's edge. 1t will then be-
come gradually DINNER, most noticeable
on the eastern edge, until 939. The
full shadow will then be reached, the
edge of which will be notched. The
middle of the eclipse will be reached at
10:41, at which time about three-tenths
of the moons diameter will be in the
dark shadow. At l1:43 the moon will
be as it was at 9:39, it's complete out
line being then again visible. From
that time it will grow brighter and
brighter, emerging entirely from the
gloom at lila am, being then restored
to it's full LIGHT.

At Wonderland Park.

Atmospheric conditions Sunday were
not favorable to balloon racing at Won
derland park Shower after shower and
a subsequent humid condition of the air
prevented ascensions in the afternoon.
When night came circumstances were
trifle better. The first balloon went up
with Joseph Richie, the aeronaut. The
second balloon, from which Professor
Thompson was to make his parachute
leap, made its ascension, but was minus
the professor. He claimed that the rope
connecting his parachute and the balloon
had been cut The balloon went up in the
air unattended, turned over and then
came down. That was all there was to
the balloon race.
The balance Of the free attractions
were successfully presented in the even
ing, and proved to be not only first class,
but novel. The Flood Sisters gave feats
In equilibrium that were remarkable, and
what pleased the spectators most was the
performance Of their dog "Trixie" The
Geromes gave classic posings in imitation
of famous groups Of statuary, and Unita
and Paul gymnastic act that was clever
and amusing. The Journal Cadet bands
concerts, as usual, were pleasing fea-
ture, both afternoon and evening.

Minneapolis in The Literary Collector for
June: .- -- - go, -. -.
1 close the book, thee in it, gentle mime, !.
In undisturbed seclusion hid away ~
'IW1xt dulled morocco where shall none gain
The obvious humor of a simpler time.
So an old grandsires chimney corner rime,
Secure In smiles of those who love him, may
Never ON cold, unkndred hearing play,
But always live its crisp and mirthful prime
Here waits bold pleasant wit all undsmayed,
E Unconscious OF this devious age of ours,
Forever alien to signs and tears;
And here the sweep of fair, ANTIQUE brocade,
Perfume undying of forgotten flowers
ana laughter ringing family from old years.
CAN WAR BE DEFENDED ON THE
AUTHORITY OF cHRIsT?-The above
question is one of the subjects discussed
IN book based on a series Of papers
read by II. 3. Warner before the Ethical
club of Washington, D. G. The book
bears the title The Ethics of Force, and
includes, besides the above paper, dis
cussions Of "The Ethics of Heroism, ("
THE Ethics of Patriotism" Can War
Be Defended on the Ground of Reason?"
and other kindred matters. Mr.. Warner
believes that War cannot be defended on
the authority Of Christ. He says: "No
justification of war can be found in the
words or acts of Christi The statement
suggests question which we do not pre-
tend to be able to answer, but one which
we would like to have answered for u.s.
1t IS admitted, we suppose, that Christ
did recognize "divine ORDER in the life
OF mankind as a part of nature; in that
order there is place for individual hui
man suffering; why not then for nations
en- masse? Why, then, not for war?

There is no evidence of race suicide

The Journal invited all the
boys and girls connected in any way
with the benevolent organizations and
institutions of the city to take a trip
thru this truly wonderful amusement
mated that the number of such young
sters would be 1000. 1t looks now as
tho there would be at least 5000. The
kids - who have never seen the great
shows at Wonderland, and who would
ordinarily have no opportunity to see
them, are bobbing up from all sides.
The Sunshine society has a list Of
several hundred who can hardly wait
for their day. to dawn, and there
is not single child on the sick list
in any Of the "homes' Of the city.
T Tomorrow afternoon is to be devoted
to Washburn home. the Riverside chap
ell, the Home for Children, the Hebrew
society and the Associated Charities.
Wednesday afternoon will be given
up to the Catholic Orphan Asylum, the
Children s Home society, the Salvation
Army and the Sunshine society.

portunity not only to see the big park

given the right-of way to all the lead
Ing attractions within the grounds.
They are to have swift rides up and
down the scenic railway, glides down
the chutes. enhancing trips on the
carrousel, a visit to the old mill and
ride in a boat down the placid mill
stream, visits to the laughing gallery
and the myth city. In addition to all
this, in the center Of the grounds there
is to be splendid program Of aerial
and acrobatic attractions. Unita, a
beautiful woman, and Paul, the funni-
est clown OF the year, are to do some
great entertaining, and the Flood sis
tiers, noted equilibrists and ladder
climbers, will introduce their remark
able diving dogs. The Gromes, pos.
turers, will give a statuesque tableau

form celebrated groups Of Roman and
Grecian statuary.
