RAIN FELL BUT
 PlCNICKERS HAD
 ONE GREAT TIME
Washington Alumni in the Merry Old Fashion Hold First Fete
 of Its Kind

DOUGLAS, Aug. 7.-Undauntcd by pluvius and the cold gray dawn of a most unpromisiug day for a picnic, twenty-one courageous in- dividuals donned 1heir rubbers and raincoats and in the launch El Nido, left the channel on the First Washington Alumni picnic early yesterday morning enroute to Annex Creek. With the help of the old-time Washington spirit, which has saved many a day from fail ure. games and cozy fire in the cabin. the picnic party was soon having as jolly a time as if old Sol himself were smiling down on the expedition.
 After cruise about the ice- bergs of Taku glacier. the party re- paired to Annex creek, where they were given most hospitable wel- come by the management and em- ployees. The cottages, boarding house and power house were prac- tically thrown open for the pleas ture of the days program, was Lunch. as the most interesting fea- ture of htdeay's program, was spread out immediately after the arrival on the long table in the boarding house. The best of every thing including salads. sandwiches, cakes. coffee and ice-cream contrib uted to make the picnic feast a sue cess.
 Following the banquet series of prompt and impromptu speeches were given and the appointment of a committee to take preliminary steps. preparatory to the organi2a- tion of permanent branch of the Washington Alumni association in Alaska, was made by Mrs. Cragg, chairman of the picnic committee.

EXTEND MAIN ST.
BY CONDEMNATION
Mayor Says Property Owners
Must Pay Cost, Not
the City.

The extension of Main street two
blocks south of independence street, as
a result of the fire that destroyed the
Cape City Steam Laundry building, is
in the same status as it was before the
fire, Mayor Kage declared last night.
The extension will have to be done
by means of condemnation proceed
ings, the Mayor said, the only manner
in which the work ever could be per
formed by the city government.
"The work will have to be done, if at
all, in the regularly constituted way"
the Mayor declared, "and it ultimately
will be a matter to be put through the
courts.
1.-TWO years ago the matter was
taken up when the property owners
along the route of the proposed street
extension, made written proposition
that is on record in the City Hall. They
asked the city to pay them for the
land to be used and also pay for the
pavement of the street.
81 Will say now that the city is not
paying for any streets. 1t is a
precedent that will not be created in
the first place, because if we pay for
one street. we will have to pay for
all, and under the law, the property
owners to be benefited have to bear the
burden of expense.
81 think that a benefit district will
have to be created by a commission
appointed by the court to stand the ex-
pense of the street opening, just as the
benefit districts are being made in the
West End where streets are being
widened.
''Two years ago, when the matter
was up, the property owners wanted
to have it all their on way, so they
got nothing. One man wanted US to
pay him $4,000 for his corner and
the other prices asked were high in
the thousands.
Personally, 1 think the proposal
made in the editorial columns of The
Tribune is worthy and the street
should be extended, but it must be
done right"

BABY ILL WITH DIPHTHERIA
Home of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank HOhler
to be Placed Under Qua 1ntine.

The infant son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Frank Hohler, who live on South Mid
die street, is seriously i'll with diph-
liberia. The child became sick several
days ago, but its ailment was not of a
serious nature. Fever developed yes
terday morning and a physician was
summoned. He found the child was
suffering from diphtheria.
The HoEler home will be placed un-
der quarantine this morning, it was
learned last night. There are several
other case of this malignant disease in
the city, and the city authorities are
taking precautionary measures to pre-
vent the disease spreading.

by his physician to be serious enough
to cause alarm. His brother, Judge
William B. Schacfer, president of the
Cape Exchange Bank, had been in
formed that his brother was slightly
indispOSed from rheumatism, but as
he had been subject to these attacks
for years. his relatives believed he
would soon recover.
Mr. Schaefer's illness did not become
serious until Wednesday night, and it
was not believed that his life was in
danger then. But he failed to rally
and continued to grow weaker until the
end came.
'T first learned that my brother was
suffering from rheumatism about one
week ago." said Judge Schaefer last
evening. "This information came from
neighbor of my brother. AS he said
my brother was only slightly indis-
posed, | did not give the matter much
thought.
"He had long suffered from kidney
trouble, caused by stone in one of
the kidneys. This was responsible for
his death. But this chronic ailment
was aggravated by the rheumatic con-
dition."
Henry Schaefer was 40 years old,
and was born on a farm Just out Of
Appleton. The Sckaefer family were
pioneers in that section of tke county,
and Mr.. Schacfer was known by every
one in that immediate locality and had
vast number of friends in every part
of the county. His mother, Mrs.
Marie Schaefer, who is past rs years
of age, lives with another son, Adolph,
on the old Schaefer homestead. She
is enjoying excellent health despite
her advanced age.
In addition to his widow, Mr.. Schaef
er leaves six children: Ruth, Dorothy,
Henry, Mary, Nellie and baby son,
Charles. The eldest is Miss Ruth, who
is hardly seventeen years of age. Three
brothers and two sisters also survive
They are: William B. Schaefer, of this
city; Adolph, farmer near Appleton;
DR.. r. S., of Dallas, Tex; Mrs. Mar
tha Telle, of Kimmswick, Mo-, and Mrs
Amelia Weinhold, of Rochester, MINI.
The funeral of Mr.. Schaefer will
take place from the Lutheran Church
at Union Town, a short distance from
Appleton. In this church Mr.. Schaefer
was baptized and confirmed and for
thirty years had been one of its most
influential members. The Rev Otto
Heuschen, pastor of the church, will
deliver the funeral Grafton. While the
time of the obsequies has not been def

Mayor Nets City
$500 In Swappin'
With Fire Horses
Receivers 5000 on Team Kill
ed by Live Wire-Buys
Successors for $21O and
Disposes of Them for 5000
to Auto Truck Concern.

Mayor Rage yesterday finished for
the city ore of the most clever "hOrse
swappin'" deals in all his history as
good trader, when he received a
check for 5000 from A. NJ. Tinsley, To-
cal manager of the Missouri Public
Utilities Company.
The 5000 check represented damages
that the Utilities Company paid to the
city for the loss of the two fire horses
last spring when they were killed by
live wire in the midst of a run to a
fire through a severe electrical, wind
and rain storm.
When the Mayor checked up ac-
counts yesterday afternoon after he
had received the Utilities Company
money. he found that his profit for
the city in his fire horse transactions
amounted to $500 net, or almost
enough to pay his salary for three
years.
In the first place, after the two old
horses were killed by the live wire,
the Mayor realized S400 from the in
surance company for their death. The
city had three animals insured for
5000, so that $AO0 was paid for the
death of two. The death occurred Just
about - days before the expiration Of
the policies also.
The Mayor at the same time, inform
ed Mr.. Tinsley that he would expect
settlement from the Utilities Com
pany for the death of the animals.
When the insurance was settled, Mr..
Tinsley went to the Mayor and asked
for proposition.
1.-TWO hundred dollarsw replied the
Mayor.
Mr.. Tinsley recommended that the
5000 be paid, making 5000 the Mayor
got for the two dead animals.
He took $210 of this money to Cairo
where he purchased two trained fire
horses that were discarded by the de-
partment there on account of the in
stallation of motor trucks.
These animals he has arranged to
dispose of for $500 when the motor
fire apparatus is delivered. The Mayor
has virtually completed arrangements
whereby the Robinson Company will
leave the old wagon fire truck here and
take the fire horses for the $500 al
lowed on the new machine. The third
horse that will be INCLUDED in this
deal cuts little figure, the Mayor de-
! clares.
! His first deal, allowing $500 each as
the value of the horses killed, netted
5000 profit and his second deal boosts
! the sum to $500.

HUCHESREFUTES
WILSON CHARGE
HE WANTS WAR
Republican Candidate Says
Accusation Is Not Worthy
of Notice.
MOUNTAINEERS FROM
KENTUCKY HEAR HIM
Men and Women Ride to Town
on Mule Backs to See First
Presidential Candidate.

Louis, KY, Oct. 12.-The special
train carrying Charles E. Hughes, on
his third Western trip, was stopped by
broken rail on the point of a curve
around steep embankment of the Big
Sandy River leaving Paintsville today.
The rail was broken for a distance of
several inches, the inside fiange hav-
ing been knocked entirely away.
The Republican nominee today car
ried his campaign to the mountains
of Kentucky and into mining and lum-
Der towns never before visited by a
presidential nominee. His audiences
were composed largely of men and
women who had travelled miles by
horseback and by muleback to hear
him as he outlined his views on
the maintenance of American rights
abroad
81 stand as the representative of
party" he told an audience in the
streets of Prestonburg, "but in the
true sense as a representative of the
American sentiment which demands
that the lives and property of Amer
lean citizens shall be Safeguarded
throughout the world. That does not
mean a policy of war. Our opponents
have said recently, in effect, that if we
oppose what they have been doing we
must necessarily favor war. That, to
my mind, is a statement which hardly
deserves notice, it so plainly is con-
trary to the facts.
Il do not desire war. Who could de-
sire war? We know the awful wastes,
tragedies of war. We are devoted to
the pursuits of peace. We are friendly
with every nation under heaven and
every nation desires to be friendly
with US. We have no policies of an
aggressive character; we do not covet
anybody's territory, and we aren't
seeking anything that is not our own.
owe only ask that our Just rights,
our rights, be maintained.
"We canot have peace for any great
length of time unless we have self
respect. We cannot have peace or Sc
curity unless we have the esteem of all
the nations of the earth. We must
deserve this esteem if we are going to
enjoy it. When we have known rights,
every nation must understand that we
are firm in their maintenance, that we
mean what we say, that we are pre-
pared for every emergency, and that
we stand four-square to the world with
no secret intrigues, with no covert un-
derstandings, but determined that
American rights, according to inter
national law will be safeguarded every
where"
