"THE MACCABEES"

A Biblical Entertainment. Given by The
Altar Boys of St. Clements Congre-
CATION at St. Clements School Hall,
August 18th 8 p. m, For Children and
August 30th p. m. for Adults.
This drama has been selected on
account of its historical character. it's
good moral, and correct language, with
view of stimulating good taste for
theatrical performances. The first
and most important mission of the
stage is, to educate; and secondary
and subordinate purpose of the stage
is, to entertain. A performance that
entertains but fails to educate and
uplift is detrimental to the public,
because il drains the peoples money
without giving value for value and
spoils good taste and often good
morals 1t is far more difficult to
prepare and render well, a good drama
than a farce. If, therefore, some
shortcomings should appear, we beg
the audience to kindly forbear with
them, as this is the first appearance of
our boys They will do better another
time. The event of the play is taken
from the book of Maccabees about the
year 175 before Christ and pictures
the suppression of the Israelites by
the pagan king, Antiochns. the weak
ness of some of the Israelites and the
fidelity and bravery of the greater
majority of them under the leadership
of the jealous high priest, Matsthias
and his five noble sons. and the final
victory of the righteous. We cordi-
ally invite you to attend and by your
presence encourage the strenuous
efforts of the boys to render SON ething
good in itself to the best of their
ability, Secure your tickets early as
there is only limited seating capa
city at the school hall. Tickets for
sale at BENEFITS drug store and at ST.
Clement Parsonage. Children 15c;
Adults 25c.

A GAME WORTH WHILE
CAPT. ANSON COMING
Anson's Chicago Colts Will Play
Lancaster at Fair.
Grand Old Man of Base Ball and His
Chicago Ball Team to be Here
Next Thursday.

After scheduling the st. Paul Col
ored Gophers to play here the last day
of the fair, Mr.. Schreiner received
word from the manager of the Goph-
ers that he had just discovered that
his team had another game sched-
uled for the same date. and it would
be impossible for them to play here.
The cancelling of this game of
course necessitated some tall hustling
on Mr.. Schreiner's part but it was
not long before he got the manager of
the Auson's Colts, the famous Chicago
organization on the wire and made sat
isfactory arrangements with that
team to appear here on the same date
that the Gophers were to have filled.
Anson's Colts will no doubt prove

State Leaguers to Play Here.

Two games have been scheduled by
the local management for the 18th
and 10Th of September with the Madi-
son team of the Wisconsin, Illinois
league. After the league season is
completed many of the teams go ON
what are termed "barn -stoIming"
tours, playing against the fastest in
dependent teams. Madison is one of
the swiftest teams in the state league
and now stands second in the pennant
race. There is a possible chance of
their landing the championship for
the capital city.
i. These games should prove the great
drawing cards. The fastest indepen-
dent team of the section matched
against one Of best league teams of the
state should make a battle worth
going miles to witness. Remember
the dates IL and Is of September.
They may be the last games of the
local season.

Quite good sized crowd was in
attendance and of course sympathy
was generally in favor of the Cass-

Git Pitcher Makes Good.

Next to RUDE Marquard, whom the
New York Nationals secured recently,
Pitcher Louis Durham of the Indian
apolis team is now the most talked of
pitcher in the American association.
Only twice have the Indians lost when
he has been on the mound. He cost
the club nothing In the way of pur-
chase money, as he had previously been
Internationally released by the Louis
Vile club and was a free agent. His
most noteworthy feat was his double
header victory over the Brewers at
Milwaukee, but the stunt that afforded
him the most satisfaction was the shut
ting out of Louisville at Washington
park-2 to O.. He has won seven games.

veteran of baseball cap" Arson
action. After many years retire
ment from the diamond he has again
this year got back into the harness and
is now playing first base regularly
for his club. In the team back
of him are many ex-leaguers. One
of the fieldeIs is the famous Walter
Eckersall, the old Chicago Univers-
ity athlete.
Anson's Colts have been winning
regularly from the other fast indie
pendent teams in Chicago and taken
altogether will make an attraction
at the fair worth coming miles to
see.
The fact that Arson himself will
positively appear here with his team
makes the attraction all the better.

Settlers For Upper Wisconsin.

Washburn, Wis, Aug. 1S.-The
work of placing settlers on the lands
in the northern part of Bayfield,
county, known as the Cranberry land,
will be begun at once and colonies
will be headed this way soon. The
tract contains some of the finest clover
land in the county and has belonged to
the Wisconsin Lumber & Cattle COM
pany, whose officers live in Iowa. The
company is about bankrupt, and their
affairs are being wound up and their
lands disposed of at from So to SO
per acre. Two hundred families will
be placed upon the lands this fall.

The result is easy to see. At the
present time everybody is short on re-
tail stocks from the retailer himself
to the manufacturer. Everybody is
waiting. But every day market condi-
tions are lettering, and everybody is
beginning to come around to see that
prosperity is one its way back.
The rub will come if everybody sees
the light at the same time. Then, as
the Journal says, there will be a
stampede to buy. Orders will pour
in to the manufacturers so fast that
they cannot fill them all dealers will
be. left unsupplied; then prices will
begin to climb. Some dealers will
have full stocks and will profit by
the conditions others will be fairly
we'll supplied, and will break even /;
others will be lightly stocked and
will lose out.
The intelligent dealer will think
twice before he delays further in buy
ing what he is going to need this fall
and winter.
