FITTING END TO CARNIVAL ... 1 : i . i Over Thirteen Thousand Peo ; pie; Visited the Grounds Yesterday fSEVERAI, ATTRACTIVE EVENTS DID NOT COMB OFF DDIS PRE SENTED TO QQUEEN AGNES I ONE MAN INJURED BY FIRE WORKS (From Sunday's Daily.) By yesterday morning1 the greater portion of the people of the city were already tired of the long- week of Car nival, but most of the people from the country! bad not visited It before, and so were' drawn to Salem for the cele bration,' and many extra "attractions were offered. The committee had pro vided many pleasant diversions and attractions besides the Carnival prop er, but for one reason or another, sev eral of them failed to materialize, and the day fell short of the expectations Vf moat of the visitors. The parade was pulletl off about on schedule time, and all of the features promised ; were present, except the floats, and in this matter the business men. of Salem showed very little en terprise) or public spirit. An originally designed float ts a splendid advertise ment for the bouse. It represents, and will attract the attenlon of more peo ple on such an occasion than Is possi ble In any other way. The usual cus tom is to raise money for a celebra tion by subscription, but this time no one was called upon for a penny. The Bancroft Optical Company fur nished a very beautiful float which at tracted wide : attention. The Salem Military Bandied the procession. las lowed by Queen Agnes L, and Queen Anny II. and their courts, bedecked In the splendor of their Carnival robes. Queen Agnes braved the drizzling; rain without an umbrella and was kept busy acknowledging; the ovation :ot her loyal subjects. In the first car riage were Queen Agnes j. and Henry W, Meyers. Lord High Chamberlain. Misres Maud Mackay and Mabel Jones maids of honor, rode in the next car riage, and then came Queen Anny II.. of j Dallas, and Frank Kerslake, Lord High 1 Chamberlain, . Misses Inetta Hooper and Miss Hallie Morrison, maids ;o(t honor. Messrs. August Huckestein, J. G. Oraham, Milton Meyers and W. E. Sherman, of the Carnival committee, rode the two camels, "Holy Moses" and "Alfonse." Austin, Jr., the great clown, rode his pot ! donkey, and Arnold's nine cage menagerie followed, with the lion rage open. ' , , The country store took a very im portant part in the parade. Mrs. R. I. Davenport rode in a buggy, and everybody recognized her as the prin cipal drawing card of attraction- for the Country Stor during: the week. She wan followed by the Country Store Rube Band. ! : The grand balloon ascension, which was to have taken place at 11 o'clock, did not oome oft at all. Prof. Miller, the aeronaut, was ready at the ap pointed hour, but the committee changed the time to 1 o'clock, and by that time a strong- wind had arisen, and Prof. Miller would not take the risk. During the afternoon the wind teiamp stronger 'Instead of weaker, and the celebrated aeronaut was fin ally compelled to give up the attempt, although he expressed great regret at being compelled to disappoint the ex pectant crowd, and losing the money which ;he was to receive for the ascen sion. i'But." said lie, "most aeronauts lose their lives early in their career, and I: would have been dead long ago, had I not refused to take any danger ous risks." f -Ws'! War Many Fizzles.) "The' much talked of Mardi Gras parade did not take place last night as was intended, but a few of the visi--tors to the Carnival at night wore '.masks. : It was by far the largest attendance tof nny night during- the week. About S,000 people paid at the main entrance, and the big tent was more than rovded. . Queen Agnes I. and her court, and Queen Anny II, of Dallas, yyid her court, occupied the thrones on the stage last night, ' both monarchs being adorned in their royal robes. "Turlng the evening. Manager Judah appeared upon the stage and In a few .jvell chosen words announced that E. J. Arnold had presented Queen Agnes wlth the beautiful throne which she was then occupying. It Is a handsome .affair, and will be a pleasant reminder -K the brief and successful reign of . Queen Agnes X. over Greater Salem. i The Grand Fireworks. : k; The last thins; on the proyram was the gTand pyrotechnic display which .was set off on the open space between fctne Carnival grounds and: the Federal butldin?. Their were not "met off tmtll Ul:3a o'clock, and , lasted i Just thirty i minutes, includlne- the disnute as to -Which direction they should be thrown. "A few of the first rockets were thrown toward the Carnival grounds, and It 4id ;not take many minutes for E. J. Arnold to get to the spot and. demand that no more rockets be thrown in that direction. The majority of the , great crowd had already gone home on account of the lateness of the hour. but there was still probably a thous and people left to witness the little -display. A good many. gathered around ; the spot where the fireworks were set ' off. but the greater portion war on the postofllce grounds. , -i ne nrewoTKs consisted of 22S as sorted -rockets, and a few bombs, be at aes the .final piece "Salem." The rockets, many of them "failed to go oS ; Properly, and were very daneeroue. nying in any direction but the proper one. iMi greater ; portion, however. - went as they were intended, and made a very' pretty display. The last piece. vriem. - presented by the manufac turer. Paul Siebert. of Aurora,' was t twBurni piece, and reflected great credit oh the donor. The word "Sa lem" stood out in bold relief surround. ed by a pretty design Including- sev eral revolving pieces, and colored lire. . : Struck by ,- .Rocket, i The danger of such fireworks, when set off in the midst of a, crowd, was plainly seen last night, and the even ing's festivities resulted in the serious Injury of Mr. J. IV Wilcox, who j. was standing- about thirty feet away. One of the large rockets. Instead of "going up as was Intended, shot out to the left with terrific force, and struck Mr. Wilcox squarely on the breast, 'knocking- him backward about ten FeeT aTTl prostrating- him. The man was carried to & safe distance, and a hasty exam ination showed that no ; Injury was visible beyond a. severe ' cut , on', the chin, but .he was suffering; agony, and Dr. F. E. Smith was J summoned. A carriage was also ordered and the in jured man , was removed to his home near the North Salem School. Dr. Smith was not sure, but from the hasty examination thought that one of Wilcox's s right ribs was- fractured. Later, howeverfX it was determined that no bones were broken, and, al though he was slightly injured inter nally, and badly shaken up. It is hoped that no serious effects will result. By the time the fireworks were over the Grand Mid Summer Carnival was no more, and the big- tents were al ready, partly torn down.; The big shows will be taken to Portland this morning to -form an important part of the Woodmen Carnival in that city. DESTROYED BY ANGRY FLAMES Handsome Residence of James N. Shantz Is a Total -Loss FIRE DEPARTMENT COULD NOT RESPOND TO CALL, AS HOUSE WAS OUTSIDE OF CITY LIMITS PART OF FURNITURE WAS : SAVED. (From Sunday's Daily.) The handsome residence of James N. Shantz, on the northwest comer of Market and Fifth street, in North Sa lem, was totally restroyed by fire yes terday afternoon. Mr. Shantz and family left home about 2: 30 o'clock, and came up town to attend the Carni val, and upon returning home late In the afternoon found their elegant home in ruins. The flames were seen issuing- from the building by the neigh bors at 4 o'clock, and an alarm was at once turned in, but the house be- ng- outside of the city ; limits the fire department could not respond. A part of the furniture, in the build ing was saved by the neighbors, but the house was consumed by the angry flames and Is a total loss. A large water tower, probably the finest in the city, which stood close to the dwell ing, was also destroyed. The building was a : modern two- story frame, contained ten rooms, be sides a number of closets, and with the furniture destroyed was valued at $5000. Mr. Shantz carr ed between $1600 and $1700 insurance on the building, con tents and barn, the policy being writ ten in the Oregon Fire Relief Asso ciation, of McMinnville. The barn was not destroyed. The house was practically new, hav ing been built but three years ago this summer. When the fire was first descovered. the flames were issuing ; from the kitchen part, and it Is supposed that the cause of the conflagration was a defective flue, the walls probably hav ing ignited from a fire built in the kitchen stove at noon, and smoulder ing; were fanned into a flame by the strong- wind which wa blowing, after the family left the house. The destruction of the'property Is a severe blow to Mr. Shantz and his family, who deserve 4the sympathy of their neighbors and friends In their sudden misfortune. . : t ." ' Small Chimney Fire. j A second fire alarm was turned in last night from the residence of Mrs. M. N. Chapman.; No. 203 Union, street, but after the fire department had made a quick run to ,the house it -was found to be only a chimney fire, but the boys turned a stream on the roof, and re mained there until the fire.-had died down and all danger was past. A NARROW ESCAPE : DRUNKEN MAN DELIBERATELY WALKED OVER RIVER BANK ON COURT STREET. i (From Sunday's Daily.) Yesterday afternoon one of the visi tors attracted to the city by the carni val, Mike McDonald, began to feel the effects of "fire water," of which he had been imbibing: too freely, and wander ed toward the liver to cool off. but he came near getting more of a cooling than he (was looking- for. He weht down to the " water edge on" Court street, and deliberately walked over the bank. He was seen by Fire Chief Johnson and Special Officer Longcore, who went over to see,; what had be come of him. They found the drunken man lying; close to the water's edge and unable to get up. Another roll would have put him in the water, and it is very deep at that point The offi cers assisted the man up the bank,' and to the city Jail, where he -- could at least rest in less danger. , The officers say it was one chance in a thousand that he escaped death, either by strik ing- the rocks after the long- fall, or by arowmng. ... Brutally Tortured. A case came to light that for persist ent and unmerciful torture has per haps never been equaled. Joe Golobick, of Colusa, CaL. writes: "For 15 years I enaurea insufferable pain from rheu matism and nothing; relieved me though i. tnea everything' i known. I eame across Klectric Bitters ond it's the great est meajcine on earth for that trouble. A few bottles of it completely relieved and cured me," Just as good for liver ana kidney troubles and general deb'li ty. Only BOc Satisfaction guaran teed by D. J. Fry, arngzist.

ON DURING THE PAST YEAR WHILE EMPLOYED BY THE FIRM. Harry Fisher, better known by the name of Harry Gillen. Is occupying- a cell in tJk 'Uv JaiL accused with the crime of larceny in a store. Fisher, who is about 19 years of age, was for several years a clerk in the store of Jos. Meyers & Sons, but about one month ago was discharged from their employ. During the- past year many articles of clothing, dry goods, etc., have - been missed, from the store at various times,' but the proprietors were unable to detect the party who was guilty of the thefts. During the past few days, however. evidence was obtained which fastened the supiclons of the firm on Fisher. He intended to depart for Portfand yes terday morning, but missed, the boat. and the firm now having- become con vineed that . Fisher was the guilty party, a search warrant was sworn out and placed in the hands of Chief of Po lice Gibson. The officer at once took possession of a trunk and suit case be longing to Fisher, and upon Investiga tion both were found to be filled with articles stolen from Meyers' store. The young man was at once taken into cus tody and locked up In - the city Jail, where later in the day he confessed to having carried on a systematic robbery in the setore during the past year. A charge of petit larceny will prob ably be preferred against the youthful offender today, and he will be given a hearing . before Judge Judah. Mr. Meyers feels inclined to be lenient with his former employe and will endeavor to secure for him. if convicted, the lightest sentence possible. Fisher, as far as is known, has always borne a good reputation and. his sudden down fall came as a shock to his associates and acquaintances.
