Notwithstanding I%nfayorable Weath-
er IA Good Crowd i'm Attendance
the Second Day of the
Celebration.

The local weather guesers who
dated the carnival this year did
not prove as good guessers as
they have generally done in the
past, and the weather conditions
were against the celebration, the
flrst day being particularly un-
comfortable for outdoors doings.
However, there Was a fairly good
attendance on the second day.
The display Of farm products, all
tne gra rs, grasses, mammoth
vegetables, and fruits were par
ticularly fine, and indicated that
this had been a good year for the
Grant county agriculturist. The
very tine samples of apples, of
the Greening. Wealthy and Ouch
ess varieties were a surprise to
many who were under the inn
preston thai no fruit was raised
here.
The sports were of an interest
ing character and the street and
booth decorations were pleasing.
The failure Of the Curtiss Aero
plane Co., to fulfill their contract
with the commercial club for an
exhibition of flying was the great
disappointment of the affair. A
telegrsm was received on Friday
stating that the machine which
was to have made the flights here
was wrecked in a Kansas town.
When this was known an immedi-
ate effort was made to secure a
Tight by some of the birdmen
who had been in adjoining towns,
and Phil Saunders went to Madi-
son, Mimi, and Watertown in a
VAN attempt to secure the party
who had been at Madison. but
was too late to get him. The dis
appointment Of the people in the
failure to see this attraction as
advertised was equalled only by
the chagrin of the managers in
the commercial club who had a
properly signed contract with
the company and had deposited
tfle necessary money guarantee.
This contract and correspon-
dence is IN the hands of the sec
rotary of the commercial club,
and is indisputable proof that
only the Curtiss company was to
blame for the failure to fulfill the
contract. 1t is possible that at a
later date the attraction may be
secured.

cracy, is to get things moving to-

An Anniversary.

BIG Stone Headlight: Last
Friday was the 10Th anniversary
of the battle of Chicamauga, and
events on that day came mighty
near depriving Big Stone City Of
a popular hOtelman. Col. Tom
Eitch,-thiS was before his pro
motion-waS lying on the ground
with his company, under fire, and
a bullet came along, plOWing
across the bridge of his nose and
breaking his right arm. Tom
said his nose needed wlDing, all
right, but his arm was better be
fore it was struck. He got up,
not being able TO crawl, and walk
ed through a storm Of bullets in
to a patch of woods the edge of
which was about a hundred feet
away, and went into them far
enough 50 that the thud of the
bullets could no longer be heard,
and came to a loo cabin with Il
flag over it which indicated it was
a field hospital. 1t was full and
wounded soldiers were lying
around in the grass awaiting
their turn and he dropped down
among them.
Presently a comrade from the
same company came along with
one finger hanging by a little skin,
and Tom called to him "Hello,
Harris, did you get hurt" Har
ris stopped and looked to see
where the voice came from and
finally recognized the owner, be-
hind a mask of blood and CRIME,
and after a moments cOnversa-
ton he asked Tom if he could
walk. Mr.. Fitch replied that he
had come that far on foot.
"Well, for Gods sake, lets get
out of here, for the Rebs are
coming"
The two struck out through the
woods and in a few minutes the
Rebels swept in and captured all
the wounded that couldn't get
away.
Tom and his friend retreated
about four or five miles picking
up about a dozen wounded mem
bers of their regiment on the
way, and finally got surgical
treatment with another part of
the Union army, and SO lived to
tell the tale to the Headlight man
on the forty.ninth anniversary of
the hot debate.
Col. Fitch thinks that if he had
not had this unfortunate expert
ence he might not have acquired
that retiring and morose DISPOSE
ton of his, but would have been
a cheerful, optimistic sort of a
fellow, with a pleasant word for
everybody.

a leader whom the nation will trium-

such leadership. We demand decency

them. His executive talents no less
than his intellectual strength are rec

his own party. His candidacy appeals
to the Independent in politics; to the
democracy of all parties. 1t appeals
