cries from their far-off northern home,
to remind each other of happenings of
long ago and to revel in memories of
"auld lang syne?" 1t is not a sign of
dissatisfaction with the present-(you
will find no more patriotic Americans
than the northerners) but of filial af-
lection for those things that are dear
est in life-father, mother, childhood's
home,
And so once more the Swedish
Americans of Moline and Rock Island
are gathering for their midsummer
festival at Prospect park, June "a. The
program will contain much singing
because a Swedish festival without
singing is not worthy of its name. The
chorus has as one of its OBJ
jects to furnish some of the renowned
grand songs of the north on occasions
like this. The speaker of the day will
be, as has already been announced, DR..
Gustav Andreen, president of Angus
tana college, and also president of the
association which has arranged the
festival. Music will be furnished by
the Moline Plow company band, which
has promised to play also some Swed-
ish military music The old-time folk
games will be played by competent
performers who have learned them at
home. Those that have visited the
famous "Shansen" in Stockholm re-
member those games with pleasure
The Maypole will be raised this year.
too, and an effort will be made to have
a group of 16 children, especially
trained, TO dance around the pole with
streamers. For the younger element
sports and games of various kinds will
be arranged. Light refreshments will
be sold at several places in the park.
The representatives of the various
churches and societies, who have ar
ranged the festival, invite all to come
to Prospect park, Saturday afternoon
at o'clock and to bring their lunch
baskets along. Let this be a happy
reunion" when the spirit of auld lang
syne once more reigns supreme with
its former gladness and cheer.

NEGRO SHOT,.

A negro named Noe Alfred was
shot aud seriously wounded in the
upper part of the Parish the latter
part of last week by crowd of I'M
known persons. The negro it APP
pears is of bad character and about
fourteen years ago was ordered out
of the parish and remained away
until short time ago when he re-
turned,
The supposition is that the neigh
bors went to his place to order him
away or whip him, and as he
would not submit to that, was shot.
1t is believed he will die.
Sheriff Martin made an inves-
tigation, but could get no clue to
to those guilty of the crime. The
negro is in a delirious condition
and can give no account of the
shooting.
