Because today is Labor day, and should be enjoyed by laboring peOpie in celebration of the event or in any manner that they might elect, there will be no paper issued from The Blade office'in the morning. The entire force will be absent from their usual places in the office today and tonight, and Bade wishes them and their fellow workingmen here and elsewhere a day of unalloyed pleasure. MUNDY WORKS AT SMELTER. The Walter Mundy mentioned in last Friday's issue of The Blade, in connection with the case of the young girl found drunk on "'North Malcom street, is a man working for the new smelter, and is not Colonei John F. Mundy's son Walter.

The names being the same, The Blade wants to avoid any reflections on the character of Colonel Mundy's son Walter. DROVE PICK IN HIS FOOT- T. Manley, an employe of the south brick plant, met with a very painful accident Saturday while working in the pit. Manley was using a pick and in some manner either made a miss lick or his foot slipped and he- drove the heavy instrument into his ankle to the bone. He was brought in the city to Dr.

Brown's office and the injury dressed He will probably be laid up a couple of weeks. DAVIDSON FINED SIOO. William Davidson was adjudged guilty in police court Saturday afternoon of dispensing intoxicating liquor to Fern Freeman and fined $100. Fern Freeman is the young girl who was found drunk in company with two men on North Malcom street Thursday night. Judge Dryden in fixing Davidson's tine said the fact that the Freeman girl was probably not what she ought to be did not mit igate his offense.

He further said that the girl, on account of her be accorded the same rights and protection as the most refined lady in the city. Specialty. Lands. KANSAS. JOIIN F.

liUNCE Case and Cabinetwork Fronts, Wood Carving, Plioniita Ifoncac tnanuie, nansas. The Way Chanute Delegation v. Dtpacted lor Parsons. A DAY'S RESPITE FROM TOtL Five Hundred Happy Workingmen UoarUed the txcursion train Here This Morning. With band playing, banners flying and ribbons denoting the delegation and occasion fluttering from coat lapels two hundred and fifty workingmen ot Chanute at 7:30 o'clock this moruing marched in procession to the Katy depot to take the excursion train for Parsons.

It was the original intention of the Katy railroad company to send an ex cursion train out of Chanute at 9:10 this morning, hut the large sale of tickets reported at noon yesterday and the insistence of the local labor com mittees oji getting an earlier start for the scene of the big Labor day cele bration, brought aboutachange in the program. At 8 o'clock last night the number of tickets sold and those which were positively engaged amounted right close to 400, and it was predicted that this number would beswelled an other hundred bv the sale of tickets at the station this morning. The indications early this moruing pointed to a delegation of about 500, whereas the transportation committee had originally predicted that it would be 700 strong. The special train which pulled out of here for Parsons this morning con sistea or nine coaches, ana bad on board the Chauute and Humboldt del egations. At 6 o'clock in the morn ing the train ran up to Humboldt and took ou the big delegation which went from that city.

All of the nine coaches were pretty well tilled when the train started out of Chanute, and the excursionists, in anticipation of the pleasures which the trip held in store for them, drowned the noise of the locomotive in their shouts of laughter and uood natured repartee. Among the prizes which are to be awarded at Parsons today is $50 in cash to the largest delegation in attendance, and Chanute has high hopes of landing the prize. If the appear ance of the delegations was tobeoneof the ruling factors in the contest Cha nute would have a cincn, for a hner looking body of men than that which marched to the Katy depot in orderly procession this morning was never be fore seen in Southeastern Kansas. It was not definitely determined tins morning at what hour the excur sion train would return to Chanute, but the time will probably between 10 and 11 o'clock, depending on the time at which the exercises are completed at Parsons. There are to be several night events, among them an elaborate display of tireworku, and the train will be held to give the visitors an opportunity to see the flash of the last pyrotechnic piece and hear the flambeau captain announce good night.

THOMAS THOMPSON DEAD. He Expires in Kansas City Saturday From the Effects of a Sur-ical Operation. Thomas Thompson died in Kansas City Saturday afternoon from the ef fects of a surgical operation performed on him a few weeks ago for gall stones. While Mr. Thompson was an elderly man, having passed the 70th mile stone, and was known to be in rather a critical condition, the news of his death came as a shock to his relatives and i iends in this city.

Mrs. Thorn son was at the sufferer's bedside when he passed away. The remains were laid to rest in Kansas City, in which place several childrtn of the deceased reside. Thomas Thompson was one of the pioneer settlers in Chanute and lived in this city for over thirty years. He was an Englishman by birth, having deserted the British navy when he was yet a young man to come to the country where oppression is not tolerated.

Thomas Thompson was an hon- SZSZ lating to business. He has a wide circle of friends here who will feel sin- i ttric qui iv vtci ma ucaiu. JURORS FOR OCTOBER TERM.

Q. Farmer. H. CRAIG IS BOUND OVER Justice Disapproved Officials' Ef-- fui to Entrap Defendants Intp a Felony Net. The city officials who caused the arrest of Lee Hawkins the other day on charge that he attempted to bribe them to permit him to sell tutoxicat-ing liquors in Chanute met with defeat in ustice Farmer's court Saturday afternoon, the justice holding the evidence against the accused would fail toconvkt him in the dis court.

Police Judge Dryden, Marshal Allen Mayor Kennedy were the witnesses for the state and Mr. Hawkins went on the stand in his own behalf. testimony of the state showed Hawkins had stated to some of city officials that if open saloons ever contemplated he would give city or the board of trade 9 100 per month for the privilege of running one saloon, or he would give $1 to the city every case of beer that passed through his hands. In the event the latter plan was agreed upon Hawkins proposed to run a supply house. The evidence showed that Hawkins not make the propositions as bribe to the officials to permit him to a saloon, but that if joints were going to be permitted he wanted to.

in on the ground floor. Hawkins testified that he did not make a proposition to the city officials contemplating the opening of a saloon immunity from arrest and prose-cation. He said be had had a talk with them and explained how some of other towns were handling the liquor question, and pointed to one place where the saloons paid a dollar every case of beer handled by them also cited another place where the saloons were paying tines amounting $100 per month. The preliminary hearingof the state against L. H.

Craig, charged with at tempting to bribe the city officials to allow him to conduct a saloou iu Cha nute, also came up in Justice Farmer's court Saturday afternoon. Police Judge Dryden, who made the complaint on which Craig was arrested, was the first witness. He said Craig accosted him on the third day of August, near the Citizens State Bank, with these words: "Dryden, you understand me and I understand you. 1 have a business proposition to make to you. 1 want to run a hop tea joint and have police protection." The judge further testified that Craig proposed to give the city $50, the mayor $50, the city attorney $50 and tne ponce judge ou amounting all to $200 per month, for the privl leee of running a saloon.

On the 5th August, Judge Dryden testified, Craig approached him again on the subject and included Marshal Allen In his proposition, 6aying he would give that official $50 per month also, thus raising his bid to $2o0 per month. Continuing his testimony, Judge Dryden said Craig and Marshal Allen met by appointment in the city hall on the 6th of August and talked the matter over. He said the city officials had never made a proposition to Craig looking to the opening of a saloon, but on cross examination he admitted that they had asked Craig certain questions in order to draw him out. He further testified that Craig, Mayor Kennedy and himself met in the mayor's office on the 25th of August and that Crais there stated his proposition to the mayor. Mayor Kennedy was corroborative of that given by Judge Dryden.

The defense offered no evidence. The case was then up to the court and Justice Farmer said that, while he did not approve of the method em ployed by the city officials to entrap Craig into committing a felony, he would nevertheless bind the defendant over to the district court and let that tribunal pass upon bis innocence or guilt. He fixed Craig bond at $1,000, which the latter furnished. HAD HER ARM BROKEN. Lena, the little daughter ot Dr.
