.They have found the difference
between these and the best mer~

They have also found where
these' suits differ from "cheap"

MAY FEAST.
The ranch advertised Maifest,
given Sunday by the Germania
Turn Verein club, of which Mr.
An tone Beniker is president, was
a largely attended and successful
affair, many people bavin? been
present from every place and com-
munity within a radius of fifty
miles ot Schulenburg.
The several prizes offered by
the club were, in each instance,
contended for by a number of
contestants which, of course added
greatly to the interest of the day.
The attractive street parade,
consisting of a number of artistic-
ally docnrutod vehicles assembled
at Turner Hall and promptly at
11 o'clock, headed by Mr. Henry
Eilers on horse back, immediately
following which came the exquis-
itely attired carriage containing
Miss Paulina Kueper, the charm-
ing May Queen and her maids of
honpr, and other pretty floats
proceeded down Upton Avenue to
the* intersection of Main, where
taming to the East the parade
proceeded to the intersection of
Lyons Avenue and thence up
Lyons Avenue through the resi-
dence portion of the town, finally
returning to the point of origin,
where participants and spectators
repaired within the grounds and
enjoyed the address of welcome
delivered by Mayor Theodore
Wolters, to which Mr. Henry
Beniker made an appropriate re-
sponse after which the May Queen
(Miss Paulina Kueper) was
crowned, she presenting her inter-
esting recitation, upon the compo-
sition and presentation of which
she was warmly congratulated by
her many friends and admirers.
An intermission was then taken
until five o'clock, when the prizes
contested for during the day were

At 5:80 o,clock the race between

occurred in which Mr. Henry
Skarke; who had gone through
a month's thorough training at
the Seashore, at Galveston, dis-
robed himself of all surplus attir-
ed and possessed himself of the
determination to do or die, came
out victorious, having been just
a nose to the good of Antone Ben-
iker, who, despite his heayy
weight, made a manly effort to at-
tain the laurel leaf.
This ended the cerimonies of
the day, all of which passed off in
the most pleasant manner possible,
each the victors and the vanquish-
ed haying accepted the result of
the good natured rivalry in a be-
coming manner, with the avowed
determination «f again entering

TRIBUTE OF RbSPECT.
To the Memory of our late Brother,
Mr. Charles A. Kessler.
Inscrutable are Thy ways, Oh!
Almighty Father!
Thou dos't govern the Universe;
by Thy will, man was created, and
by Thy will he appears before Thy
Throne, to render account of his
acts while in the flesh.
Humbly we feeble mortals, iu
reverence bow and obey the com-
mands of the merciful God, who
has summoned from Earth and
from the mid9t of his affectionate
family and sincere friends, out-
worthy and highly esteemed bro-
ther, Chas. A. Kessler, whose un
expected demise has cast a deep
gloom upon the entire community.
All his friends, all those who
have known Chas. A. Kessler, are
sad, they are mourning
he is no more; he is sleeping the
sleep that knows no awakening.
Be it Therefore Resolved that
in the death of our late brother,
Chas. A. Kessler, Lyons Lodge,
No. 195, A. F. & A. M., has su.a
stained a loss deeply felt by ihe
fraternity for he was a true and
sincere brother, a Mason among
Masons as be was a man among
men. To his family be wmj a
most loving husband, an affection-
ate ar.d provident father. To his
friends a friend in need as well as
indeed. To his county; au honor-
able and much honored citizen,
patriotic, dutiful aud every ready
to serve his country and his fellow-
citizen.
Resolved, that this Tribute to
our departed brother be spread
upon a separate page of the Logde
Records; that the same be publish-
ed in The Schulenburg Sticker,
and a copy thereof placed into the
hand of the bereaved family.
Respectfully submitted by the
Committee. A. Windmeyeb,
