THOUSANDS AT THE PICNIC!
The FATHER MATHEWS 7. A. & B.
PICNIC THE LARGEST EVER HELD.

Perfect Weather and a Satisfactory Pro-
gram of Entertainment.
Score another success for the Father
Mathews T. A. & B. society. The 9th
annual picnic given by this society on
Wednesday last is the browning event of
long line of successful entertainments,
measured either by the attendance or
the program presented. More than 5000
people were on the grounds during the
afternoon races, which was by far the
largest attendance ever accorded these
picnics A shower the evening before
allayed the dust and cleared the atmos-
phere for ideal weather conditions, while
it gave the farmers vacation that must
have contributed largely to the crowd.
The special train that came in from
GAINESVILLE at $50 o'clock brought about
800 from that direction, while the sur
rounding country seemed to turn out
epmass by teams as we'll as later trains.
The Society and Cadets in uniform
formed in procession and marched to the
Driving Park at $50 o'clock and the first
event, a ball game between the Milton
C-escents and Clinton All Stars was
called soon after. The teams were very
we'll matched and most interesting
game put up. To an outsider the Cres-
cents seemed to play the best fielding
game, but g combination of errors in
the third, which allowed their opponents
to obtain their only runs, was unfortu-
| nate. None of these however were
earned but the lead was so strong that
Milton was unable to overcome the ad-
vantage. The game closed with a score
| of to in favor of Clinton.
The afternoon program opened with a
temperance address by Father Dunn of
Eau Claire, an eloquent appeal to pre-
serve the tenets of the Society. The
strongest field of horses took part in the
races that followed that ever gathered
in this city. The entries for the four
events scheduled numbered twenty nine
and included the best matinee horses of
Milwaukee as we'll as the entire southern
part of the state. That only one class
was won in straight heats shows how
warmly the contests were fought out and
prolonged the races until nearly 8 o'clock
The following is the summary of events

A Standard That Has Played n Con-
spicuous Part In History.
+ The Carlovingian standard was real
ly no other than the oriGamb, which
has played so conspicuous part In
French history. but was not formally
adopted until 1852, in the reign Of
Philip |. 1t consisted OF a red or crIr..
son tlng. mcuntd on n gllled staff. the
flag being cut into three "vandykcs,r
to represent tongues OF fire." with
silkcn tnssel between each.
Is The old romance writers pretended
that the intldcl was blinded by merely,
looking upon 1t. In the "Roman de
Garinn the Saracens are .nadc 10 ex.
claim. III We only sec It, we shall be
dead men," aud Froissart ;atlirms that
as soon rs It was unfurcd \ at RIOS.
sbecQue the fog vanished from the
French line OF battle. leaving their
enemies still shrou0ed in darkness.
Thus red, thee which the! church
has consecrated to her martyrs, be:
came IN Its turn the color or the
French kings. They wore It on their
.coats Of arms through the Whole pc!
Rod ofthc crusades and as late rs the
closing decade of4thc fourteenth cen.
tury were still faithful to this "glori-
Gus !bla2on." j Z:
The famous Du Guesclln, fighting
against the English in Poltou. wore
the red cross. while his adyersaries
wore the white. But. after the great
defcat at Agincourt In 1415 the French
lltngs abandoned the erihamb, because
1t had been assumed by Henry Y. and
Ibis successors. and adopted white MS a
national color when England Ind dis.
