WOODMEN DAY Thursday was the banner day of ^ the three and the gate receipts was four times greater than either of the other days. The day was not an ideal one but was not bad. The Woodmen and their friends began to come in early and when the prrs. session moved it extended tor a good half mile. The Lnup City cornet band led, followed by the Loup City lloyal Neighb ir’.s drill team on horse back. Then came the uniformed Workmen teams in the following order: Loup City, Arcadia, Rock ville and Ashton, followed by R. 1). Hendrickson’s team of ‘-Forest Bandits” in full dress and masks. A long line of marchers came be hind the unifoimed men and still in the rear was the convey ances. El banks Hale had bis Shetlauds and little buggy beautifully trimmed and be and little Miss Eva Morgan were the king and queen of the occasion Mrs. T. M. Reed trimmed and de corated their family carrage in most beautiful style with the Woodmen colors and hud the letters, M. W. A., in silver on the side. Those two rigs were the main features of the parade among the vehicles. The ('rilling exhibition on the grounds wa3 very tine and evoked many comments. Arcadia carried ' off first prize and nobly earned it, Loup City came second and Rock ville third. Tile ltockvillo team had but four days practice after organizing, and their work showed the metal they are made of. The sports of the two last days were all that could have been asked for. The racing was first class, and the base ball games were as tine as ever were played in the city. The first (lays games were played be tween tbe Myra Valley and Loup City teams, tbe score standing 9 to 13 in faver of Myra Valley. Tbe prize for tbe second day was closely contested for by the Myra Valley anil Arcadia clubs in which Myra valley won. by two scores. On Sat urday Arcadia played Loup City and defeated the latter by one score and it took ten innings to decide it. The score stood 11 to 12. The management of the touma- | ment were more than pleased with the i success attained and visitors were all highly satisfied with their enter tainment. The faker was the only man to kick. As ihe people o f this vicinity take little stock in them their rake off was small and their discontent commensurate therewith. The live pigeon shoot was a fea ture well worth the price of admis sion to the sportsmen. The score was as follows SCORE CARD. October 4, 20 Bird Shoot: C.C. Spaulding.2. 1. I, 1,1. x. 0. 2 x, n.

A most distressing accident, re sulting so far in one fatality, took place this morning at 3 o’clock in the home of John Quisenberry, south of Aids. The information obtained by the Independent is to the effect that the little son of .Mr and Mrs. Quisenberry is dead and that four of the other children are seriously burned, as is also Mrs. Quisenberry. It appears that at the hour named Mrs. Quisenberry was walking about the house with lamp in hand. .She was in the sleepirg appartments when the lamp exploded. Her clothing was saturated with oil. The clothing ol the beds iu which five children were sleeping whs also partly saturated and commenced burning. Mr. Quisenberry at once did what he could to extinguish the lire and was partially successful. However the explosion gave the flames much opportunity and though tbo efforts l>y all to minimize the ac cident were prompt, seven members of the family were badly injured by burns, the lad of ten years expiring at ten o’clock this morming, and four of the other children, and Mrs. Quisenberry being in a very serious condition now. The oldest < f the children is sixteen and the youngest four. The fire did Dot destroy the house but whs put out after it had burned all the furniture in one room and burned through the floor. The sleeping apartments are iu the sec ond story. — G. I. Independent. DeWitt's Little Eariv Risers never tlisapoints.

The succession act, passed after the as sassionation of President Garfield provides that in case of the de ath or inability lo serve of both the presi dent and vice-president, one of the cabinet officers shall act as president, and shall, if congress be not in sess i >n, or if it is not to u.eet in regular session, within •_’() days, call congress in extra session. The cabinet offi cers take precedence in acting as follows: Secretary of State, Secre tary of the Treasury, Secretary of War. Attorney General, Postmaster General, Secre tary of the Navy and Secretary of the Interior. The cab inet officer who succeeds as acting president must Lave the qualification of a president. Thus if the Secre tar\ of State should happen to be of foreign birth, he should not be eligi ble, and tbe Secretary of tho Treas ury would become acting president. —St. Joseph Herald. j Uur friend tlcnty Ubtekedanlz oi I St. Paul was Dominated last week by I Howard county republicans as car date for county treasurer.
