FIFTY YEARS OF PROGRESS Immense Crowds at Fort Wayne Sunday to Assist in the Long Planned Exercise. The Journal-Gazette tells of the Catholics Golden Jubilee celebrated at Ft. Wayne Sunday night as follows: The golden jubilee, or fiftieth anniversary, of the organization of the ! Catholic diocese of Fort Wayne was most fittingly celebrated last evening by a monster meeting in Library hall at which the eloquence of orators, both from the clerymen and laymen of the church, together with beautiful music by talented singers, combined in a most impressive manner to tell the story of the work of a half century of soul-saving, character-building and mind-moulding of the noblest type. The occasion was a most auspicuous one and most auspicuously did the speakers and the singers respond to it, making the meeting one which will ever linger in the mind of every one in the vast audience. Fifty years is a long span to the individual life which looks ahead, but a short period in the making of history, and yet, in eloquent, earnest tones, the speakers recounted the wonderful results wrought by the church that seemed wellnigh impossible of human attainment in the space of a half century. Long before Dr. James M. Dinnen, who presided, called the meeting to order, all the available space in the great hall had been filled by loyal Catholics who, proud of their church and its works, had gathered early that not a single portion of the celebration program might escape them. The musical program, consisting of several of the most beautiful sacred productions of classic composers, was rendered by a choir of over sixty-five voices, under the direction of the Rev. S. M. Yenn. and augmented by an orchestra of several pieces. The large stage of the hall was completely filled with the singers, who made an imposing appearance, the women in white filling the first tiers of seats, and the men with their heavier voices stationed behind them. Addresses were made by Dr. Bruggeman, Hon. William P. Breen, Henry C. Berghoff, Judge Howard, of South Bend and a short talk by Bishop Alerding.
REPORT A DELIGHTFUL TIME Famous Dasseler Band Furnished Music—Many Other Forms of Entertainment. Several thousand people attended the big picnic at the St. Johns church grove Sunday and that included several hundred Decatur pleasure seekers. Many took advantage of the interurban. while others drove. All report a delightful time. The chief attraction was the Dasseler forty-piece band, from Fort Wayne, who furnished inspiring and catchy music throughout the day. The refreshment stands did a big business, as did the bowling alleys, and various other amusement places. Beside this an interesting program of music and speeches was rendered and was thoroughly enjoyed by every one who took the time to listen. The St. Johns picnics have a reputation for twenty miles around and always enjoy a big patronage. This was the second given by them this summer and both proved most complete successes.

PREFER IT TO ONE FOR SPEED Carried Over Fifty Milion People in Two Years and Not One of Them Were Fatally Injured. New York, Sept. 21, 1907. —The recent accident report of the Interstate commerce commission gave railroad critics an excellent opportunity to call attention to the fatalities attendant upon traveling. One paper w-ent so far in its dehunciation of railroads and their managers as to refer to the Erie’s “slaughter of helpless victims.” This statement was controverted by General Attorney George N. Orcutt of the Erie. "As a matter of fact,” said Mr. Orcutt, “the record shows that between March 1, 1905, and July 31, 1907, the Erie and its controlled lines carried 56,196,153 passengers and not one of them was fatally injured. The Erie’s critics are fond of calling it slow, but the management has preferred safety to unsafe speed and to that end has a speed limit on every mile of track. An engineer who runs 50 miles an hour, where the schedule fixes 40 as the limit, gets a vacation without pay. The block system is enforced with unyielding rigor and so closely are the movements of passenger trains watched that the slightest deviation from the ‘running rules’ are punished. We do not run excursion trains on single track lines, we have extended the time of trains that we thought wore too fast and use other methods that tend to safety and provoke criticism on the part of a few people who do not appreciate the efforts made to safely transport the public.” J- H. MADDY.

WILL MAKE WESTERN TRIP To Speak at Canton, Inspect the Mississippi River and Combine Pleasure With Business. Oyster Bay, N. Y., September 22. — President’s Roosevelt’s summer vacation at his Sagathore Hill home will end at 10 a. m. Wednesday, when he with Mrs. Roosevelt, members of the family and executive staff, will take special train for Washington. During the three and one-half months the president has occupied the homestead he has had the quietest and at the same time the busiest vacation he has indulged in since he became the occupant of the W’hite House. The records show that since June 12, the president has received 125 persons at Sagamore Hill. Some of the callers have been distinguished foreigners and a few have made purely social calls, but the majority of them have been government officials on strictly government business. While visitors have been comparatively few the work which the president has accomplished in other directions, has been great. His annual message to congress is practically completed. The document needs only finishing touches. In addition to writing his annual message the president has prepared several comprehensive speeches. One of these was delivered at Provincetown, Mass., recently and the others will be made during tihe western-southern trip which is to be begun immediately on his return to Washington. The special train equipment by which the president will travel from Washington to Keokuk, la., will be taken from Jersey City to Washington Wednesday and will be occupied by the president and party returning from Oyster Bay at that time. While the preparations for President Roosevelt’s western trip have not been completed, the program has been sufficiently arranged to make it certain that the tour will be one of the most spectacular ever undertaken by him. He will eave aweek from today and will be absent from the seat of gov ernment until October 23 or 24.
The trip has three distinctive objects, the dedication of the McKinley mausoleum at Canton, 0., the inspection of the Mississippi river, with a view to arousing interest in a ship canal from its mouth to Keokuk. lowa, and the great lakes, and the securing of a period of recration for the chief executive before the beginning of his duties of the w’inter. o JAMES HURST IS PRESIDENT Dallas Butler Made Delegate to National Meeting—Special Meeting to be Held Next Month.

DEL LOCKE SAVED THEM Will Kunkle’s Auto Almost Collided with a Freight—Men Were Frightened. Ben Solinger, Del Locke. W. A. Kunkel and Frank Runyaui had narrow escapes from a horrible accident and probable death Thursday while riding in the Kunkel automobile on Cherry street, said the Saturady Bluffton Evening News. The car came within a hair's breadth of crashing squarely into a moving freight car on the Muncie interurban line. All that saved them was the quick and heady work of Del Locke, who was driving and who, without a moment’s hesitation, swung the car around without time to check its speed, till the nose pointed toward the J. M. Ehrler home, and sent it flying over the curb with one jump finally stopping it in the Ehrler yard, after having missed a tree in the yard by only a few inches. When stopped the machine was practically standing on end. The experience was an exciting one for the four gentlemen in the machine and it will be some sime before they forget it. It was almost as narrow an escape as could possibly be. Before they reached the Johnson street crossing a Muncie passenger interurban went through. Thinking the coast clear and hearing no signals of any sort, whistle or gong, the party started to drive straight on across the tracks. Just when they were within fifteen feet of the track, going at a fair speed the freight car was down upon them and it was then that the machine was turned into an airship to take the curb and sent whirling up into the yard.
WILL HOLD SPECIAL SESSION To Discuss a Plan of Re-organization —May Make it a General Stock Company. The stockholders of the Great Northern fair association held their annual meeting at Steele’s park Monday morning and a fai rattendance answered the roll call. The election of officers, in fact all other arrangements for next year’s fair were postponed, after the discussion of a most important question, that of converting the association into a stock company and admitting all who cared to buy. The association discussed the matter thoroughly and decided to await permanent action for three weeks, thus giving every member an opportunity to vote. The meeting will be held October 14. when one of the most interesting sessions in the history of the Great Northern will be held. Heretofore no one could hold stock except by consent of the association, but the present move would permit any one dseiring to purchase the stock. While the fairs have been good and fairly successful financially, it is believed by many that the new plan would be a better one and conducive of more interest. o J. E. Matron and family, of Willshire, passed through the city today enroute to Fort Wayne, ■where they will remain for some time for a visit with relatives.
