CARNIVAL NOW OPEN Good Natured Crowd Thronged the Streets and Attractions Until Late Hour. MR. PUNCH MAKES A HIT “That’s the way to do it, boys.” “Come right ovah heah and see the greatest jungle animals in captivity.” “Tiny Mite, the smallest hoss in the wurrld.” “They’re red hot, boys. Have one.” ! Up! Up! Take a ride in the Ferris wheel.” All these and many other cries op- ened the Patterson carnival last night. The streets of the carnival were crowded until a late hour with a good natured crowd that listened with equal glee to the philosophy of Mr. Punch or the chattering of the wild man, Here is what Mr. Patterson’s press agent has to say: “The carnival was scheduled to op- en at 7 o'clock last night, but so show-hungry were the crowds that the two-ring circus opened its doors yesterday afternoon and packed the tent. This speaks well for Bemidji -as a show-going town, as this is the first time in two years that it has been deemed necessary or advisable to open any of the Patterson attrac- tions before evening of the opening day in a town. “The circus pleased its patroms. It is a big twenty-five cents worth. The trained lions, elephants, goats, dogs and ponies are a show in themselves, but in addition there are some real- 1y clever acrobatic and equestrian acts. The Bertinni family of wire walkers, the three Charabinos, tumb. lers and _contortionists, and the Ho- cum family in a tandem riding act are especially clever. “Nomia, the big musical comedy show is another attraction that lives up to its advertising. There is a big chorus of really pretty girls, come- dians who get the laughs without re- sorting to slap-stick stuff, and there is not a suggestive line in the whole show. All the latest New York song hits are presented, splendidly staged With special scenery and the costumes and electrical effects are par excel- lence. “In addition to the two big shows there are enough other attractions of merit to keep one busy the whole time the carnival is here. The shows open at 1 o’clock in the afternoon and at 7 o’clock in the evening.” MANY PICTURES OF WEDDING. Hillsboro, Cal., July 16.—Stand- ing before a motion picture machine that made a photographic record of the scene for the edification of the future generations, Miss Jennie A. Crocker, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Charles F. Crocker, of San Fran- cisco, today became the bride of Mal- colm D. Whitman of New York city. It is believed to be the first time in the history of American society that moion picures have been aken of a fashionable wedding. Seldom has there been-a more bril- liant wedding in any part of the country. Interest in it was wide- spread, for the bride is supremely charming, the bridegroom belongs to one of the oldest New England fami- lies, and both are young, rich and very much in love. Prominent society folk from cities on both sides of the continent gath- ered to witness the ceremony, which was performed in a magnificent pa- villion erected for the purpose on the grounds of the,bride’s country place at Burlingame. The pavillion cost §$10,000 to build, while an equal amount was spent in its decor- ation. The bride had for her matron of honor Mrs. Walter S. Martin of San Francisco. The bridesmaids were her cousins, Miss Harriet Alexander and Miss Janetta Alexander of New York, and Miss Julia Langhorne and Miss Marjorie Josselyn of San Francisco. The bride belongs to one of Amer- ica’s best known families. Her grand- father, Charles Crocker, a man of great daring in his business enter- prises, was one of the California pio- neers. He built the first railroad across the Sierras, worked a number of mines, and in all the early indus- tries of the state his name figured. His associates were such men as Flood, Fair, Mackey and O’'Brien. He died in 1888, leaving a fortune of $30,000,000. Malcolm D. Whitman, the bride- groom of today, is a member of a family that has long been socially prominent in New York and New England. In his college days he was famed as a tennis player and some years ago he held the national ama- teur championship. His brother, Hen- dricks AVhitman, whose hoin® 1s in Brook,lin¢; Mass., was tharried re- cently to the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. CHatfield-Taylor of Chicago. SR o OLYMPIC WONBY AMERICA (Continued from first page.) who competed in the so-called mod- ern Pentathlon. . The open air banquet was an excel- lent illustration of the unbounded hospitality which the Swedish hosts have displayed toward their guests from the beginning of the festival. The scene was a brilliant one, and was witnessed from the stand by thousands of spectators who paid an admission fee merely to watch the diners and listen to the music. Speeches were made by leading ath- letes in uniform under the standard of their respective countries. Flow- ers by the wagonload adorned the heavily laden tables. The superb organization, which has made possible the smooth manage- ment of so many undertakings, all of considerable magnitude, is a perpet- ual source of wonder to visitors. Makes Good His Declaration. Patterson, N. J., July 16.—Gaston Strobino, who won third place for the United States in the Olympic Mara- than, is twenty-one years old and an employe of a big machine shop here. He has been a runner for about three years. Strobino was born in Switzer- land of French parents and brought to America when eight years old. His parents are tremendously elat- ed over his vistory at Stockholm. Mrs, Strobino on hearing the result, said she knew her son would figure in the clasic event because he said when he went away: “Mother, I'll finish one, two, three, or break a leg.” National Negro Business League. Chicago, I, July 16.—The Na- tional Negro Business league is look- ing forward to a record-breaking at- tendance at its thirteenth annual meeting, which will be held here next month. Booker T. Washington is the and will preside over the sessions of speakers will be negro bankers, law- yers, physicians and business men trom nearly every state of the Union. Royal Society’s 250th Anniversary.

The exercises of the celebration will continue three days. Hibernians Begin Their Convention. Chicago, 111, July 16.—The annu- al national convention of the Ancient Order of Hibernians was called to or- der in Emmet Memorial Hall at noon today by President James J. Regan of St. Paul.

Urge Farmers to Raise Fish. “There are signs that the time is not:| far distant,” said William E. Meehan;, former state commisioner of fisheries and present director of the publio| aquarium in Fairmount park, “when farmers will consider fish culture as Important a part of their calling as the raising -of grain or potatoes or poultry. When that day arrives the fish industry of Pennsylvania will rank as high as any other industry. There are few farms in Pennsylvania with- out springs, a stream and swampy land of which no use is mrade and upon which the farmer pays taxes without any return. Most of the streams and the springs and the swamp land could be utilized for the rearing of fish. Un- der Intelligent care an otherwise use- less piece of wet land can be made to yleld as much, acre for acre, as the most fertile land.” — Philadelphia North American, A Dictionary Distribution Draws Many. founder and president of the league | Dictionary or by their successors the coming meeting.
