THE FIELD DAY The Events Not Contested Will Come off on Decoration Day. The crowd that came away from McCook field Saturday evening was anything but a comfortable looking one. All were wet and thoroughly wet. This did not prevent tbem from having a good time however, and all were able to see the funny side of the tbiugs happen ing. But three events occurred after those reported in tbe Journal of Satur-urday and they resulted as the others had, in Baker and Cooper getting nearly everything.

The running high jump resulted in a tie all around. Gordon of Cooper and Sherman of Kansas University tied at 5 feet for first honors and ou the flip Gordon won; Sherman second. Toomey aod Motter flipped for third -place, Toomey winning. Matteson won the bitch and kick, making a record of 8 leet 7J inches; Toomey of Baker second, Sherman of Kansas University third. Only one heat of the bicycle nice wa9 run before the rain began, Oehler of the Kansas Universiiy tatin th? mild easily la 3:48.

The other events as will coiu-i oil on the in mi'iu of Decoration day: Putting the shot, kick wiib botu ftet, hur die race, Hianriiug hig'u jump, one mile walk, throwiug hammer, half mily ru lining race, pole vault, staoding broad jump mile bicycle race, throwing base ball 220 vard dash.

Hackmen had a harvest Saturday evening. Mighty few peeple were on the street Saturday. Several small boys were out swimming yesterday. Rehearsals for the dancing carnival are daily happenings now. It isn't always the best musicians who like to display their talents.

A rain storm will bring out a good mny selfish traits in people. Calling names is a very childish way of getting even with people. University commencement exercises will commence in two weeks. A bicycler caught out in a rain presents anything but a graceful sight. The rain had one good effect; it clean ed out the gutters along the streets It's nearly always a person's own fault when they do not have a good time Tbe hail storm in Douglas county was not severe enough to do a great deal of damage.

The next thing to entertain Lawrence people will be the observation of Decor ation day. Some people's idea of a newspaper is that it should roast other folks for petty personal slights. The first graduating recital ot the University school of music will be held tomorrow evening. Too many Lawrence school children will be allowed to spend their time on the streets this summer The annual farewell parties of the University fraternities will be the social events from now till school is out. George Grover, formerly with Weaver in Lawrence, but now in Kansas City, will be married on June 14 to a St.

Smith' Valuable Stallion Dies of Laryusltla. Sealskin Wilkes the well known and valuable trotting stallion owned by Mr. E. A. Smith of Norwood stock farm died Friday evening of laryngitis.

The horse has been sick about seven weeks, and has had the very best of care and attention from the very first, and has shown favorable symptoms ail along but finally the disease had such a bold that it could not be gotten rid of. The disease is the same that killed Lobasco in five days time early this spring in Nebraska. Sea'skin Wilkes was 12 years old and was purchased 8 years ago by Mr. Smith for $12,000. While the loss to him is very great the loss to the community is also great; for the horse was making a reputation by his get that was just beginning to be appreciated, and which will take years for any ether horse to Sealskin Wilkes had proven himself a trotter of extreme speed and the sire of trotters four of his get going in the list lart season, tbe only qnes ever handled or started in a race Bessie Wilkes 2:24, Emolita 2:24, Orley Wilkes 2:27, and MissPetot 2:30 Emolita trotted a half mile in her race at Mexico in 1:05 and could have beaten 2:10 that day.

Sealskin was awarded first premium at tbe state fair at Topeka last fall for best staudard bred stallion four years old and over. The ring was composed of the most noted stallions in the state Ashland Wilkes, Fergus McGregor, Honor, Senator Updegraff and many others. He was also awarded first premium and diploma for best stallion with four of his get. He was one of the very best pro ducing sons of George Wilkes and the only son of the greatest sire that ever lived, standing in Kansas except one Sealskin Wilkes is not only the sire of trotters, hut the eire of producing dams also. He sired the dam of Katy Mac when two years old, in Kentucky.

Katy Mac could beat 2:30 at a yearling, and was sold to C. I. Hoed, of Lowell. Mas sachusetts. for $3,000.

George Wilkes 519, record 2:22 is ac knowledged by all to be the greatest sire of extreme speed aud money winners the world has ever known. Nearly, or quite 1300 of his descendants have beat en 2:30. His sons, as sires, embrace a mighty phalanx of eighty-four, and amone them are many of the very foremost now standing for service in this country. From these eighty-four sons have come more than 200 2:30 per formers, while bis daughters have pro duced sixty-one. Grandsons and granddaughters in turn are breeding on in the most amazing way, until the family of George Wilkes has become the largest and most popular in tbe trotting world.

GEO. INNES. Pioneer Fruit Grower of Donglae County Hold a Meeting. The long talked of reunion of the Douglas county fruit growers took place last Saturday at the home of Mrs.

Mary Savage, two miles southwest of the city. The place and selection for this meeting was very appropriate, it being the home of the late Joseph Savage, once well known in our midet and eyer remembered as an enterprising citizen and early settler. The claim was selected as far back as 1854; but notbing was done in the way of improving until later on when there was light ahead and something prospective. Then the country was a treeless plain except some timber that skirted along the Wakarusa and also some trees that crowned tbe summit of Blue Mound to the southeast. Joseph Savage, perhaps, did more tban any other man of his time in bringing Kansas, and especially Douglas county, to the front as a fruit growing place.

Like all old settlers he chose a high ele vated place to try the experiment of farm life, and in the ma' ter of fruit he was successful, as it is well known that our up-lands are better adapted to fruit of all kinds than the black bottom lands of tbe Kaw or any of its tributaries. The notice of this meeting last Satur day and the efforts of N. P. Deming for a grand rally among the pionetrs to have their pictures taken in a group brought out over two hundred persons, mostly young. Seldom if ever among the monthly meetings, of the society has there been 6uch a gathering of young men and ladies as there was on the ground last Saturday.

This is perhaps owing to the fact that in coming years the mantle will fall upon them and they seem to realize the fact of being ready After reading the minutes of a previous meeting music was furnished by the No, 6 choral union. Then came the reading of the constitution and bylaws of the society formulated twenty-two years ago, which were to hold gojd a hundrtd years when civilization might effect the world's progress just enough to have an other one to run another hundred years. Governor Robinson was called upon to say a word upon olden times. He re fered to the time when he was ou this claim before or about the time it was taken; also gave many other incidents in connection with early Kansas history. He raid a glowing tribute to the society as an educator and as one that promoted allh.as the mortality in the society was almost phenomenal.

He advised every body tq unite with ins'itu'iooji of this aiud of life insurance as tne and wouUiiy ijtsE-meiits were much lighter and bcuilb aud old age were preserved. After his speech there was another song from tbe No 6 union Dr. Evatt sang his soug which is not only a favorite with those who have heard it but was General Logan's favorite song. Alter 2 p. a Lawrence photographer was seen with his pictures on the east porch facing the monument a few pacts away when the entire assemblage was dismissed.

About sixty of more presented themselves while ou the back grounds was a large picture of Joseph Savage taken a few years ago. A few minutes later the Sunday school children that could gather together of No. 6 repeated the same process, of tbe latter group together with the teachers and parents there might be an even hundred all told aud counted. After the picture taking was over a fruit grower's meeting was held, until the opening Leavens around refused to sued sunlight and thick clouds began to gather and the gentle drops of a May shower were apparent and for two hours nevar before in the history of old No- 6 was such a rain or water fall mixed with hail just large enough to fall heavily on the horses scattered around through the timber and cause them to be uneasy. The water ran down the hills into tbe ravines and they began to ewell and it seemed for a time that safety was only found in remaining still.

NOTES. A picnic iu Kanwaka keDt away about two dozen persons. Another picnic on the hill is said to have kept away several people. Prof. Snow started for the reunion but for some cause failed to reach the place.

In the big orchards on the farms it is said there will not be half a crop of apples. Governor Robinson presented nearly eyery one present with an orange that he had brought from Georgia last winter. No one seemed to be afraid of that big snake fifteen feet lorg that lay stretched out behind the speaker's desk. It was captured several years ago somewhere out in the mountains. World's Columbia!

The University has been exceptionally fortunate in securing oue of America's most famous men of letters to deliver the aunual address at the coming commence ment. Mr. Horace Scudder is well known as an industrious and successful man of letters. His work, in whatever field it may be, has always met with favor. To write successful books for children, to writs history, to edit prose and poetry, implies great talent.

All this Mr. Scudder has successfully done. Mr. Scudder' famous Bodley books are known throughout the length and breadth of the land. Wherever children read books, the Bodley family is known In history, Mr.

Scudder has written a life of George Washington and a work called Boston Town. In literature he has written a volume of essays called Men and Letters, and a Life of Noah Webster in the American Men of Letters Series He has also edited a volume of American Prose and a volume of American Peotry. At present, Mr. Scudder is editor of the Atlantic Monthly, and his varied talents and excellent literary judgment do much to keep that journal up to its high level of excellence. The Storm.

The storm that visited this section of the country lastSaturday was oue of themopt severe, aud wholly different from any thing that has been seeu heie for twenty years. It was apparent all day that some thing was coming before another day for the winds gave signs to that effect, but no one looked for or expected quite such a rain fall. The cloud that gathered in the southwest and began to develop was quite different from those that carry a common rain fall. The downfall lasted fully two hours and together with the rain and hail that fell made the storm more than really theughtfor. The damage by the storm in many places was great.

Cattle and hogs were carried down the streams that arose in pastures and other places heretofore nearly dry. The hail riddled the wheat in many places and the advanced wheat just beginning to head, together with the rye fields already out, met with consid- erable damage. In other fields of wheat tLe blades were stripped to such an ex tent that it is now bard to determine the damage. Out near Clinton and beyond. where the storm originated, it was a complete water spout and in less than an hour of time every ravint and water course was bank full and on leyel ground where the descent of the water was slow.

a yast lake.miles square was formed, and in some places the water stood from six inches to a foot deep for an hour after the rain had ceased. From the section beyond the Waka-ruaa many teams were in the city and only a few of them reached home before the next day and then water in the Wa-karusa bottom was simply a lake.
