Notwithstanding the wet and the mud
and the disappointment, the people
were good natured and happy. A

thought best not to try to give the
WoOdman drill and the races and the
fireworks and let the visitors go in

THE SPEAKER S ADDRESS.
just barely got started when the COM
ing of shower dispersed the crowd
and made it necessary to go to the
church to complete the address. The
interruption of a speech always makes
it difficult both for the speaker and
the audience to take up the threads
but Mr.. CulliSon is an old hand on
the platform and not embarrassed by
trivial affairs. SO he went right on
as though nothing had happened and
gave a pleasing and instructive
speech. He took the Declaration OF
Independence as the basis, saying
that though men had spoken and
written along such lines, no such doc.
ument had ever been issued before.
The formation of the constitution
was the first crisis; the civil war was
second; the war with Spain the third,
and the present battle against cOrpor-
atiOns the fourth. The effort now is
ITO establish justic" for and between
all classes of people.
THE BALL GAME.
The team from Atlantic came up in
the afternoon ready to play, but ow-
ing to the rain, the management
thought best not to have the game
and offered to pay all expenses OF
their coming. But that was not sat

HONESTLY CONSERVATIVE.

CHICAGO, Oct l5-The division Of
the forces Of the railway switchmen
into three companies makes it extremely
improbable that there will be any
strike on October 25, as contemplated.
This became evident yesterday when
Grand Master P. Fl. Morrissey Of the
Brotherhood Of Railway Trainmen ar
rived in Chicago with some discourag-
ing reports. He pointed out that only
about 30 per cent Of the switchmen in
the country would respond to strike
order issued by the switchmen's Union
and that, therefore, the movement
would be doomed to failure.
