CIRCUS SIDELIGHTS

THE CROWD.

Expectations that the parade
would be a c~ommendable n were
realized.
big top comfortably filled"
was the description of the attend
ance at the matinee performance.
The inevitable vendors of balloons,
squawkers, canes and whips did a
hot foot" business throughout the
day.
The time honored warning, Hold
to your horses, the elephants are
coming" was replaced in Madison by
requests of the owners of the scores
of automobiles which lined Egan
avenue and cross streets to make
room for the elephants to get
through.
Both the morning Milwaukee rail
way train from the north and the
one from the west brought in their
quota OF s%ightseers.
Although excellent order was
maintained on the streets, the day
did not pass without giving evidence
of the presence in the city of a mem
Der of the light fingered gentry.
Miss Ruth Harrison, residing at Lake
Madison, reported the loss of a watch
which she wore on the front of her
dress. The watch was missed at the
conclusion of the parade. Miss Har-
rison vas not sure the watch was
stolen.
Two special policemen, Arbor
Green and James Connolly, assisted
Chief of Police Grant Winesburg dur
ing the day. The chief and both
special officers will remain on duty
this evening to assist the two regu-
lar night policemen.
All of the city restaurants did a
near record breaking business at the
noon hour. Additional help had been
engaged in the eating places, and in
most instances the number of meals
served was governed by the seating
capacities of the various cafes.
Last nights rain augmented the
crowd, it is believed. During the
f~orepart of the day most fields were
too wet to be worked, it is said. and
many farmers spent a part of their
enforced rest inside the circus tents.
Dozens of persons took pictures OF
the elephants and camels when they
were unloaded from their cars in the
Milwaukee yards this morning.
The hearts of the Riddles were
with the cowboys and cowgirls, the
Shetland ponies and clowns.
Merchants report that IN unusual
ly large number of the visitors took
advantage of their presence in the
city TO transact business.

EDNA LOSES Slipper
ABSORBED IN PREPARATIONS
FOR CIRCUS WHEN NAUGHTY
BOY MAKES A GRAB.

Thrilling equestrian and aerial
acts have rarely before today dis
turbed the equanimity of the every
day existence of Edna Harth or Edna
Marth, exact name and age unknown,
and a resident of Nunda township.
Proof of the fact hal the witness
ing of a circus performance is not
merely incidental in Edna's young
life was given early this afternoon,
when a woman who said she was that
girls sister, reported the theft from
one of Edna's feet of a gray slipper,
which was removed while Miss Edna
gave rapt attention to preparations
being made to stage the Gollmar
show.
Owing to the indistinctness with
which the sisters words came over
the telephone wire, it is not positive
ly known whether Edna's last name
is Harth or Marth. That she was SO
deeply absorbed in matters pertain
ing to the circus that she permitted
some miscreant to creep under the
circus benches, one of which she oc.

Ia, his native heath, fresh from the
Iowa State Normal school, where he
was graduated and commenced the
practice of law at Oacoma. In those
days Lyman county was overrun
with rustlers of stock, their number
and influence making them immune
in the courts from punishment.
Bartine set about to clean them out
and quickly a spotted man, but he
p~ersevered. His first office was
county judge. but seeing that he
could be more effective as states at
torney he sought and won the office.
His first term brought many trials.
but each resulted in acquittal, re-
CARELESS of the evidence the young
attorney was able TO pile up. 1t was
at this time that Judge Smith, of
Mitchell, publicly declared in the
courtroom at 0acoma that he would
thereafter refuse to come to hold
court there until a jury could be Sc
cured that would convict on the evil
dence.
Bartine redoubled his efforts and
was rewarded by a second term as
states attorney. But the cattle
rustlers also re%doubled theirs. He
and his family were subjected to
countless prosecutions. his law office
in which he kept the mass of evil
dence which was accumulating, was
burned to the ground. but he kept
right IN. The jury box was ordered
purged by the court, a fresh yenire
secured and then convictions piled
on convictions.
During this second term Bartine
sent seventeen men to the peniten-
tiary at Sioux Falls for their work
in connection with the cattle raiding.
He completely cleared the county and
drove out those he could not con
vict. Cattle owners and plainsmen
flocked TO his standard and he was
finally sent in 1909 to the lower
house of the state legislature and in
1911 and 1913 to the state senate.
In 1914 he made the primary race
for congress against Judge Rice, of
Deadwood, and was only defeated by
less than 700 votes.
Senator Bartine is about As years
old and retains all his youthful yigor
and energy which he will put into
the November election in his en-
deavor to unhorse Congressman
Candy, of Rapid City.

CONVENTION
 OF PROTESTANT
 EPISCOPAL CHURCH

The forty-fourth Triennial General Convention of the Protestant Episco- pal Church will be held this year in St. Louis, opening Wednesday. Octo- Der Il. This is the first time in its history that this gathering has been held West of the Mississippi. An out standing feature of this convention will be the celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the election to the Episcopate of Bishop Futile, of Mis- souri. the oldest Bishop of the Ameri- can Church. '
 Each of the sixty-eight dioceses has already elected four clerical and four lay deputies; the twenty-three mis- sionary districts have chosen their one lay and one clerical deputy; and the ten foreign juridictions will each have a representative. In addition to these six hundred clerical and lay deputies one hundred and twenty-two Bishops will be present.
 The convention sits as two Houses, the House of Bishops and the House of Deputies, each having a veto upon the other. It's primary object is to make laws for the Protestant Episco- pal church. Legislation takes the form of Canons which lare operative at once, and amendments of the Con- stitution which require action by two successive conventions. The House of Bishops fills the vacancies in the mis- sionary episcopate with the concur renee of the lower house.
 In the House of Deputies there are fourteen standing committees ap- pointed by the President. There are also ten committees or commissions of the House of Bishops. In addition the joint commissions and committees of the two houses number thirty-six.
 Among the important subjects now underconsideration by these bodies are the Relation of the Episcopal Church to other Christian communions; Re- vision and Enrichment of the Prayer Book; Christian Education; the Di. vorce Problem; Missionary Organiza- ton; the Election of Bishop for Ne- groes in the United States; and an adequate pension system for the cler- gy.
 Both Houses of the Convention will meet in the Moolah Temple, the ses- sions of the House of Deputies being open to the public. For the past few years there has been growing ag1- tation against the exclusions of the press and public from the sessions Of the House of Bishops. A proposal to throw open the proceedings was de- feated by a very narrow majority at the last General Convention in New York, hut there is every reason to be- lieve that it will be successful this year.

POLITICAL ORATORY.

The man who starts out on the stump nowadays has quite problem of psychology to tackle. He ad- dresses different audience than the one that used to gather. In-former times a rally consisted of people ac- customed to hear only one side. They usually read only one newspaper, which never printed speeches by op- ponents. This audience would swai- low anything and cheer 1t.
 Many of the speeches are now made on the streets or at railroad stations. The audience is from Missouri and demands to be shown. It Will nos accept half truths and unsupported assertion. If a statement is mani- festly unjust, it hurts the party that makes it.
 Party ties hang loose. Most people read speeches and opinions from all points of view. They know that there are good men and bad men in all parties, that each has its own weak

union, more subtle, more difficult to meet with direct checkmate and cor Irection- than the old problem which eliminated in the Civil War, has en- gagged and disturbed our thought, and we have realized that we must devote new energy and ardor to binding to- gether the forces which will produce a new union, a alien force and sym pathy. But this very discovery, this very anxiety, has quickened the pulse of every loyal and devoted American throughout the length and breadth of the land, whether his birthplace was on this side of the water or on the other. A new and wholesome force has arisen amongst us of thoughtful. watchful, energetic patriotism, and venture to think that the nation is better prepared on that account to face the problems of a new day in which it will marshal all its energies and assemble all its resources to en- able the country we love to play the part it should seek to play in the counsels and actions of the great world
 Fortunately, America can play her part in the days to come unselfishly and impartially, because she covets nothing that other nations have unless it be their skill and knowledge in some of the undertakings of science and industry, and these things she can obtain, not by conquest of force, out by the mere careful use of. the extraordinary capacity of her people. She can produce like skill and know ledge for herself That is one of the things these days of struggle and in- terrupted trade have taught her. She has nothing that she wishes to take away from the other nations of the world. and she is better prepared than she ever was before to make rich con- tribution to the development of other nations
 The opportunity is at hand, there fore, for which she has waited. Her principles are suited to the freedom of mankind and the peace of the world. She can now exemplify those principles in action with new leader ship, new opportunity to exhibit them upon a great scale. She can af- for an example of energy in justice as we'll as in enterprise, in fair and hon orable competition, in thoughtful adaptation of her resources to the needs of the world, which may help to inaugurate' a new era in the inter course and friendly interdependence of the peoples of the world.
 { That she will rise to this great op- portunity no man who knows her can doubt. It should be thte pride and thoughtful purpose of every American so to equip himself with knowledge and so to purge his own heart that he may play a suitable part in this rebirth of >Americanism.
