PLAN TO ABANDON
SWEDE FESTIVAL
Because Of the Centennial on Arsenal
Island the Midsummer Event May
Not Be Held This Year.
COMMITTEE HOLDS A MEETING
Are of One Belief That Interests OF
Tri-City Celebration Should Come
First-Will Investigate.

There is a possibility that the mid
summer festival will not be held this
summer, cause Of which is that It
might interfere with the Fort Arm
strong celebration which will be In
progress at the time Of the Swedish
holiday. A meeting Of the committee
in charge Of arrangements was held
last evening in the Office Of A P. Ber-
zelius.
Opinion of the committee members
is that if the outing is held the after
noon of Saturday, June "a, or one
week later, it should be at Prospect
park and not on one of the downtown
streets. as had first been planned.
It has been the plan OF the COM
mittee to conduct the festival as part
of the centennial program. Later it
was suggested by a number of per-
sons interested in the undertaking that
the festival in this city might not
serve the best interests Of the GEN.
tennial, which should be given first
consideration.
To Meet Next Week.
If the committee finds, however, that
no program is scheduled for the aft
Groom of June "a on the island, ar
Irangements will be made for the cele-
bration here. Another meeting will be
held Wednesday evening of next week.
Arrangements will also be made for
the event if it is decided TO hold it one
week later.

expected by Or. H. A. Beam, attending
physician, to improve from this time
on.
How the boy came to be injured is
not known. He was picked up shorty
after Friday evening with no visible
wounds, but he remained in an uncon-
scious or semi-conscious state till late
yesterday Most probable explanations
are that young GUILTY climbed a teie-
phone pole and fell to the pavement,
or was struck by a passing auto or
motorcycle.
Strange part OF the case is that the
lad has no recollection Of events tor
some time before the accident. 1t Is
thought that his memory will return
as he grows stronger, however, and
that he may be able to give a connected
account of the accident.
