just as he had completed this bril-

ported that they were now being given
assurance that Congressman Clyde H.
Tavenner would be here, for it is
thought he will come this way about
that time to spend his summer vaca-
ton of a few weeks. It cannot be
said definitely that he will be here
for something might happen to pre-
vent, but the committee on speakers
are feeling more confident now than
ever that he will come Other speak
ers have been engaged.
The two ball games promise to be
the main attractions. Yuma Red Caps
and Barstow play in the morning and
Port Byron and the Moline Olympics
in the afternoon. Liberal purses have
been put up for these games which
insure good baseball An admission
fee Of 10 cents will be charged to the
grounds which will be used to make
up part of the purse, and visitors will
get to see all the attractions on the
grounds including the two ball games

the ball players who help make the
attractions. Children under Il will be
admitted to the grounds free
Arrangements have been made for
the Milwaukee train coming down in
the forenoon to stop at the grounds,
and the one going north in the after
noon viii also stop. This. will be a
great accommodation for people from
Albany and Cordova for they can
ride to the grounds in time for the
exercises and be taken home after the
afternoon attractions. Reports are that
many are coming in this way. A num-
Der of autos will carry the people
from Port Byron to the grounds.
There is no disputing the fact that
Woodward's grove is the ideal spot
for a public gathering. It is the cen

is also close to a number Of villages
on both sides OF the river With nice
weather it Is anticipated that the
