GEEETS EX-GOX. YATES IN HIS OPENING SPEECH.
arl? 2J00 Prople ThronjE Tent Hear Gubernatorial Candidate,
to
Nearly 2.500 people greeted ex-Governor Yates last night at Ninety-sixth street and Commercial avenue, in what was his apening speech in the gubernatorial campaign in South Chicago. The small tent served only as a miniature shelter for the great throng, for it la estimated that fully as many were on the outside as were under the canvass. Many speakers preceded Mr. Yntt-s, who did not arrive until about !:45. due to his presence in other parts of the city, among them being former Judge Pettlt, of the South Chicago Municipal Court and II. V. I?e, both of whom are candidates for county offices. Kx-Alderman Badenoch was also a conspicuous figure and proceeded in his thirty-minute talk to point out a number of weak spote of the Dceneen administration. Mr. Badenoch was a former neighbor of Governer Ieneen and the hot shots he poured Into the present governor seemed apparent that he knew whereof he spoke. On the arrival of ex-Governor Yates in an automobile, accompanied by a number of other spellbinders, hats were thrown into air.

Friday may be an unlucky day but the Bachelor Girls' club of South Chicago is willing to take a chance with it this evening, for they have completed all the minor details of their "moonlight picnic" which will be held on the Wooded Isle at Jackson park. The club number twenty-five of South Chicago's most popular young ladies who have banded themselves together with the solemn vow that they will never marry. While this is an awful vow to make (according to their gentlemen admirers) the girls say that they Intend to Btick to it. The club has been organized for the last year and so far none of the members have violated any of the bylaws. Although the girls assert they will live and die "old maids" they have invited their gentlemen friends to accompany them on tonight's trip. Some of the fellows were extremely surprised at being invited out by the
girls and right there was where the telephone got in its good work. With "Lover's Lane" and "Courtship Trail" on the Wooded Isle a prediction has been freely made that the
gentlemen friends of the girls stand a fair chance of getting some of the members to sever their connection with the club. The members of the Bachelors' club will leave South Chicago at 7:30 and are due to arrive at the Wooded Isle by 8 o'clock. Each of the girls will bring along a luncheon and their gentlemen friends are assured of a good "moonlight lunch." A short program will be given and the party wil end by taking a ride through the lagoon in one of the launches.

"Promise you will not take a drink for the next six months and I will discharge you, if your wife gives me permission," were the words uttered yesterday by Judge 'Walker at the South Chicago Municipal court. Walter, Macodlo, 2S years old, residing at SS10 Saginaw avenue, went out on a terrific bender the other evening and, coming home proceeded to wreak vengeance upon his wife, Katie. The first question he asked was why his dinner wasn't still warm, and when
she replied that It had been kept warm for over two hours and thinking he was not coming home she had turned out the gas to keep down the gas bill, this seemed to anger Walter and ha sailed into his wife and with a left to the jaw put her to the floor for the count of ten. Neighbors heard the rumpus In the Macodlo home and notified the police, who arrested the husband. In the courtroom Macodlo said he was so drunk that he did not remember what he waa doing and upon his promise to appear before the father of his church and take a vow not to drink for six months he was released. The couple left the courtroom, going to St. Michael's church, where Walter promised not to Imbibe during the next six months-

Several weeks ago, Harold B. Moon
asked the head officials of the Wisconsin Steel company for a months' vacation, this was granted, but none of
the officials had the least idea that
when he returned he would return with
a bride, but such was the case for Mr. Moon returned yesterday from hi3 wedding tour through the great lakes and other eastern states and Mr. and Mrs.
Moon will be at home to their many friends at 6518 Woodlawn avenue.
The bride, formerly Miss Julia Eloise
Ionian is from Cleveland, and is the
laughter of George W. Homan, a prom
inent retired business man. The groom
Mr. Moon, Is at the head of the me
chanical department of the Wisconsin Steel company, with whom he has been
onnected for the last four years. The
wedding ceremony, which was witnessed only by a few close friends of the family, took place at St. Luke's ch-urch In Cleveland. Immediately fol
lowing the ceremony the newly married couple left on their honeymoon trip.
Upon his arrival at the mill yester
day Mr. Moon told the boys that he was
married and asked them to come up and see him. The boys said nothing but just before 6 o'clock, one of the men stepped up to Mr. Moon and presented
him with a four-piece mission parlor
set, which was adorned by a small silver plate with the inscription, "To
II. 1). Moon from his fellow workmen, mechanical department, Wisconsin Steel
company.
Just as Mr. Moon was endeavoring to
think the boys from the mechanical departm, the superintendents and other
officials of the company stepped up and
presented him with a solid silver tea
service, which was also handsomely engraved. In addition to this he re
ceived many other presents from the employes as individuals.
1'pon Mr. and Mrs. Moon's return to
Chicago fully a wagon load of beautiful and useful presents were awaiting them. Some were sent from Michigan, some from California and some from foreign countries.
Mr. Moon's parents reside at Hart,
Mich., where they stopped on the re
turn trip to Chicago. The bride has
beep a resident of South Chicago for
the last eight years, residing in Windsor Park up to the date of her mar
riage. When seen todav Mr. Moon said that
he was unable to properly express his thanks to the boys for their presents, hut hoped some day he would be able to repay them.

upon a warrant sworn out by Bar
tholemew Van Toll, charged with arson,
The case came up Tuesday before
