PICNIC MARRIED BY RAIN.
But Few of the Events Take Place.

LUZ y" % sAC GVChtc AdAC AotCs
For the first time in twenty-seven
years the Father Mathews T. A. & B.
society were prevented from carrying
out the program advertised on account
of rain. This is remarkable record
setting date months ahead and guess
ing fair day for out door sports. It
is even better record than those the
weather man can show. Although the
morning looked threatening the crowd
was here and everything pointed toward
the largest attendance at their picnics.
Over 2200 paid adult admissions were
taken at the gate when rain commenc-
ed to fall shortly after noon, just when
the race program was about to be
called, and everyone on the grounds
was sent to shelter. There was disap-
pointment on the faces of everyone and
none felt it more keenly than the man
agement of the picnic, for fine field
of horses were present and some close
and exciting races were promised. The
discomforts of three thousand people
caught at the park without shelter was
also annoying but they made the best
of the situation and cheerfully sub
mitted to condition that could not be
helped.
The races and ball game for the af-
ternoon program have been postponed
to Friday afternoon and pass-out checks
will be good at that time if you hold
them, and for all those who do not have
them Is cents will be charged. The
horses that were entered for Wednes-
day will be in the races Friday, and
they are the best string of racers ever
entered here. The Chicago. Union Giants
will be here and will play the Edgerton
Giants.
The ball game between the Chicago
Union Giants and the GAINESVILLE All
Stars was a fine exhibition. 1t was
expected that the colored team would
win, and the GAINESVILLE team held them
down to where they were compelled to
play ball. The two thousand specta-
tors were we'll satisfied that they had
seen good game. The score by in
nings was:
Chicago Union Giants. 40 020001 81
GAINESVILLE Stars. .............0 0 o 600 02-2

ter to places they had known while hv-
ing here, and visiting some of the old
settlers.
While trying to lead critter that
had escaped from Peters Bros. slaugh-
ter house Sunday morning, Amel Men

O'Clock, and was to have been operated
on Monday morning by DIR. Cleary and
assistants. At 4:3O Monday moruing a
message by wire was received here

which were brought here from the
county house by Undertaken Tellefson

On Tuesday the Bohemian

and preached in Bohemian, ex-

the Bohemian priests in this

priests being present numbered
eight among whom was Rev.

time of the foundation of the

here, four priests in all have
otficiated, and not a complaint

from any one of them, which
fact bespeaks highly for this
parish. In 1872 Father Toma.

Albert Chezik and said the
first Mass in the now town of
Wahpeton. On February first
1904, the present pastor, Father
Gaydusek, felt the joy of TAX

There was no worry about car

The weather was bad the first
day Tuesday it was raining all
day and both Wednesday and
Thursday m o orn ing it was
threatened rain enough to keep
many people from coming who
had any distance to come, and
consequently the attendance
was not large on those days.
But Friday was an ideal fall
day and James I. Hill gave an
address, and the attendance
was estimated to be about 1000
people.
The exhibits were good al
though in some lines not as
large as in former years. The
exhibits of corn and apples were
wonderful and could not be ex-
celled in any country.
The races were good and
some good horses were here.
Friday afternoon about 2 P.
N. James J. Hill was brougt t:'

and escorted to a stand built on
the track in front of the grand

The chapel was pronounced to
be the best looking in the
northwest aud the loss was
something over $40. 100. Though
the priest was abse 1t, his heart

has beeQ assaulted and beaten be-
yond recognition. This has been
done ostensibIy for the purpose OF
enforcing the claim Of the strikers
that the company's works are unsafe.
Il Is a rather grim way to teach a
lesson, and the quicker It IS stopped
the better off the strikers. The strike
breakers and the company win be.
without knowing the inmost par
ticplars Of the Pittsburg situation.
one Is safe IN asserting that Iawless-
ness Of the kind above referred to Is
inexcusable. Men have perfect
right to stop work whenever they get
good and ready. but there is nothing
either in law. liberty or morals that
will justify them in shedding human
blood for the simple reason that they
are dissatisfied. Such outbreaks
amount to nothing less than revolu-
tion on a small scale and should be
stopped Immediately by a strong
hand.
