SWALLOW KILL THE SCENE
OF PLEASURE YESTERDAY
The Jolly Eight Card Club the
Participants, and the Rain
Descends Upon Them.
Swallow Hill was made the
scene of a most enjoyable picnic
yesterday. The members of the
jollv Light Card club, there be-
1 int.' thirty in the company,
chartered two carryalls early in
the morning and drove to this
favorite point to spend the day in
a picnic manner. Upon their ar
rival at the picnic grounds the
remaining few hours of the morn
ing were most delightfully spent
at various amusements incidental
to a picnic, and then at the noon
hour all sat down to a most ex
cellent picnic feast and did par
ticipate in a fine picnic dinner for
the picnickers did bring many
baskets filled with eatables. After
having eat until they could eat
no more and then some, the jolly
company devoted the afternoon to
some more sports.
A number of the party had been
fishing during the morning and
so they continued fishing the rest
of the day and we have it very
confidential from one of the mem
bers of the party that they did not
catch anything and were sure dis
gusted. The fishing stunt was
very pleasantly interspersed with
that of taking pictures of the pic
nickers in different ways. But the
principal amusement was derived
from standing in thetrain. The
ladies had not taken a single um
brella 'or wrap of any sort, little
dreaming of such good fortune
as a rain of real wet water. Then,
too, this fine rain came up just
as the ladies were partaking of a
lunch consisting of ice cream and
cake. -
Neverlheless, rain it did, and
then rained some more, and ns the
carryalls bad returned to the city
and would not bo sent out until a
late hour in the evening, the pic
nickers were compelled to simply
stand in the pouring dew-drops
and did gel a thorough drenching.
The ladies are of the opinion that
all credit for this fine rain is due
to them, and if Ibis bo so, wo trust
they will plan picnics not so few
and far between.' The ladies re
turned fo their homos after the
second shower, having had a fine
outing in spite of the, in
hospitable treatment of the ele
ments. ' Buy it now. Now is the time to
buy a bottle of Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy. It is almost certain to
bo needed before the summer is
over. This remedy has no su
perior. For sale by F. G. Fricke

the canvassing hoard' meets in! tier carried the Third ward in
official session tomorrow morn
ing. It seems that no copy of the
returns were made in these seven
precincts, and consequently the
complete returns for the county
will not be known until Friday.
The failure of the official ' in
these procini'ls , make copies of
Ihe relurns has. been criticised, as
the public is always anxious to
hear Ihe relurns early, and Ihe
candidates themselves want to
know whether they have been
elected or defeated. The race be
tween Fricke and Fox is so close
that neither can be sure of elec
tion vor defeat. Scarcely any at
tention was paid to reporting re
turns on the slate candidates.
The eighteen precincts heard
from Rive Fox a total of 331 voles
nnd Fricke 310, a majority for
Fox of 12. Fricke carried the
First ward in Plaltsmoulh by 8,

and lost the Third by 1 and the
Fourth by 3. Fricke carried Mt.
