It Is designed that the big parade shall meet the Commeiclal's special train from Salt Lake city, take the bunch in tow and show 'em a few tldngs eaily In the day. That parade should bo a magnificent pageant, and if plans now In course of preparation are cairled out, the affair will surpass anything ever dreamed of in Cache county. Arthur Bateson Is rigging up nn automobillous,madc after a specially special-ly designed and patented Invention of his own. that will certainly be a recoid breaker. Preston, Pyper & Co. arc going go-ing to tiy to outdo themselves and everybody else. "Brig" Pyper is having hav-ing dieams of a tandem to that yellow wagon, a quartette with megophones, fifteen employes In black and icd and hainesscd In ribbon. Johnson, tho restaurant man, has ordered costumes for twelvo men and will have a very unlquo display. Other firms arc warming warm-ing up and tho heat Is going to hatch out something. The Fisher Brewing company, Salt Lake Brewing company, J, It. Ed-waids, Ed-waids, II. J. DcWItt and Wat Heesc will have individual displays In the parade -that will be something gorgeous. gorge-ous. Details will come later. Tho Lineup Committee met yesterday yester-day and discussed measures calculated to secure the best team possible. A whole list ot those who might play weie written down and fiom th;so a selection will bo made. Evan Owen and Peter Maughan were suggested as Wcllsvillc possibilities, some Harris from Richmond, Ilnyball and Anderson Ander-son from Lowiston, Miles and Douglass from Smlthlleld; Lllenqulst, Wilght, Allen, Anderson fiom Ilyrum. Ol couise theie may beotliersand various members of the committee aic expected ex-pected to Islt these tow ns and secuie the best men IT possible. For Logan, whole stilng of would-be players was seated up, and It Is pio-bable pio-bable that'a number or these will be "tiled out" hi a practice game and four, Willi substitutes, selected. Cambell, Cates, Wlllaid Skanchy, James England. Air Palmer, Cha. McNIel, Will Howell, John Crawford, Frank Thatcher and many otheis are down, and It Is thought that four good men can be secured heie. Dae Thomas was selected to loast the umplic. Pror. Edwin 0. Hrown, cx-aeionaut, palmist and phrenologist, Christian Science advocate and present dispenser dispens-er or Hills Bros, coirees, was In Logan Monday and Tuesday and In speaking or the big time here June lsl.sald that he was willing to add his mite to the festivities. Prof. Brown has gone Into the clouds all over this country In his palmier days, and has stored away an outfit In which ho Is willing to make a balloon ascension heio providing ho can secure a partner not for lire-just lire-just this occasion. Jn order to make the alTalr more Interesting he would like to hae tho fairest creature In the county accompany him on the tilp. He promises to not go above seven miles fiom terra Hrma and to come down immediately after tho big game. He is open to all applications and requests re-quests that communications, with photogiaphs, be directed to 40(1 D. F. Walker building, Salt Lake City. It may be mentioned that Mr. Biown has seven wives and lu.' children so theie need bo no hesitancy on the pait or unmarried ladles in writing him. "In dajsofold when Knights weie bold and Batons held their sway'" Joe Campbell was a famous tosser or the horsehldu globule, but years or handling handl-ing eggs and line chlnaware have weakened his good right, and that old assoittncnt or Ins.outs, up-shoots, out-shoots, out-shoots, thops, and corkscrews are but a faded memory. Joe's experience In handling gtoccrlcs has not lost him any of ills nerve, however, and during tho past ten days he, with Joe Squires and Fred Cates, have spent considerable consider-able time in the rear of the post-oftlco practicing up. Squires says "Campbell Is an awfully good man, but as wild as aMarchhaie" and the fact thatthe rear of Everton's store Is minus a half dozen window lights supports Joe's statements. Campbell Is using fishing-worm fishing-worm oil as a lubricator now, and he may yet regain his past sprlghtllncss and develop Into a phenom. Tiik ItKi-uiiMUAN is authorized to announce that any couple so desiring, may bo married fiee or allcost cither Just before the big ball game or at the time of the big ball In tho pavilion. Tiik Hki'uiimuan also agrees to print excellent hair tones or the couple, and give them a year's subscription to the paper. This Isn't directed at cither Dr. Gowans or Dr. Smith, In fact,they wouldn't be consldeted in the matter. This Is designed as encouragement to somo couple who haen'tthc money to procuic a license or pay tho preacher preach-er and yetdeslre to take the fatal step. "Jack" Hooper Is the man selected by tho Traveling men's lodge at Salt Lake to engineer their end of the affair, af-fair, and he Is rushing the thing like a man who knows how. Jack says he Is going to get a gojj team together, and for that icason the Committee on Lineup In Logan is going to select the best ball playcis from among the merchants mer-chants of Cache county and Logan. This will make the affair tuily Interesting Inter-esting and a rattling good 'game of ball may be expected. The Commeiclals say that If there Is a single meichant In Cache county who doesn't como to tho big day's festivities, festivi-ties, they will boycott him foievcr, and sec that no man ever sells him three cents woi th or goods. The merchants mer-chants have decided that ttey will never buy a ied cents wouh or Poods j or any commercial man who doesn't II come to Logan on Juno 1st. With such I an arrangement as this, it looks like j Logan can't escape entertaining a large crowd on the eventful day. Salt Lake papers tell ''what Utah Eiks will do at Provo." "What the Commercial Men of Utnh will have done to them at Logan on June 1st" would be a more frnltrul subject. U the Trlb's hot air meichant will come to Logan and run up against some or tho enthusiasts hero he will secure material for ten days continuous writing. writ-ing. "Big BUI" Watson Is down to catch the game for tho Commercials, and "Little Will" McAllster Is supposed to do tho pitching for that gang. All Watson will havo to do to hold "Mc" Is to stand still and let the balls strike him. Mc isn't big enough to throw the balls to the plate. Those 'A. C. M. I. people at Salt Lake deserve a gold medal. They havo notified every one or thclrtiavcl-ling thclrtiavcl-ling salesmen that they must comedo Logan ir they aio within leach on .Mine 1st.. This sounds like business and this big linn will not lose by this move. Ficd Cates, of the Logan Dry Goods Co., hasoidercd400 yards of bunting and Is going to niako an elegant display dis-play at his big store.Now If the others will get In tho game and use somo-tiling somo-tiling less than a thousand yards, Logan Lo-gan will be well worth the while on June 1st. Will lleatlc.onc or the most popular bojs on the road, sas he will be here even If he lias to come by the wireless telegraphy loutc. And you can bet your last suspender button that when Will conies he will bring a whole bunch with him. Bicyclists aie urged to get In lino and tiy for that $15 prie for tho best turnout In the big parade. Bicyclists can get up lloats that will eclipse an)-tiling an)-tiling that may be brought. Decorate your wheels uniquely and bo tho whole cheese. The winner or the game here on Wednesday, Juno 1st, Is to havo a try with tho Salt Lake bunch.
