it took twelve innings to decide it,

Friday was one Of the most success
full ever held in Lewistown. 1t rained
nearly all of Thursday night and Fri
day morning the skies were overcast
and the streets muddy. The outlook
was far from encouraging and II
looked as though another storm would
wreck the program. However, the
skies cleared an hour or two before
the exercises began and the mud dried
rapidly. A large audience assembled
at the opera house, and following the
formal exercises. the parade moved
down Main street, and while not SO
extensive as on some other occasions
was most attractive.
Knapp, the high-wire worker, next
entertained the crowds at Main street
and Third avenue with clever ex.
hibition, which was repeated in the
evening, and during the afternoon the
two ball games afforded entertainment
for everyone, over 1000 people wit
essing the contests on the diamond
At dark the fire department made a
spectacular fireworks run on Fifth
avenue, this spectacle being witnessed
by an immense crowd. Following
this people flocked to the theaters and
many witnessed the boxing contests
at the opera house.
Taken all in all, the celebration was
most satisfactory. The many visitors
to the city found plenty of attractions
to entertain them and the day passed
off without an accident. The streets
were thrcnged until we'll after mid
night, but there was no disorder and
