</a><br />The headstone memorial cordoned off by an oxidizing iron spiked fence and flanked by neatly pruned evergreens seems oddly out of place off a sidewalk between the Lodge patio and the Arts Building and my impression is that this is Mrs Legge's least favorite aspect of the park ...<br />
The 2nd floor old main building is not devoid of furnishing or occupant but a single light in the hallway provides an ambient glow when viewed through the windows from below ...It is rumored the mellifluous, dulcet voice of a woman singing can be faintly heard emanating from the building...an unofficial source has relayed that one particularly Rubenesque dorm mothers used to sing a certain sonnet to signify that "lights out" time was rapidly approaching... Though loved, this stern matron had little tolerance for insolence and occasionally "lowered the boom" on the at times petulant young ladies, but these incidents were rare at best...on those rare occasions where the girls were a bit more boisterous before lights out, the normal serene sonnet the woman would sing was replaced by a melancholy melody about a bereft widow lamenting the loss of her husband in WW1...at least this is the most I could decipher as I made my way up the rickety outer wooden staircase...

</a><br />While making my way through the Oklahoma back roads I happened upon a rather surreal scene in a Church yard ...the mock-up was evidently erected for the Easter holidays to represents the trials and tribulations of Christ's Last Supper, betrayal by Judas Iscariot, abuse at the hand of the Roman soldiers, crucifixion and absence from his burial tomb subsequent to his Resurrection...while I understand the intent, the entire effigy out in The Sticks was like "Children Of The Corn" meets "The House Of Wax"....<br />

</a><br />The growth of American industrial might in the 1870s and 1880s was paralleled by the emergence of unions representing the workers. Foremost among the early labor organizations was the Knights of Labor, which listed more than 700,000 members by the mid-1880s. Working conditions at the time were abysmal—little concern for safety existed in most factories, pay was low, benefits were nonexistent and the work day was often 10 to 12 hours, six days a week. The immediate focus of the K.O.L. and other unions was to achieve the eight-hour day.<br />
<br />
On May Day 1886, the workers at the McCormick Harvesting Machine Co. in Chicago began a strike in the hope of gaining a shorter work day. On May 3, police were used to protect strikebreakers and a scuffle broke out; one person was killed and several others injured.<br />
<br />
The following day, May 4, a large rally was planned by anarchist leaders to protest alleged police brutality. A crowd of 20,000 demonstrators was anticipated at Haymarket Square, where area farmers traditionally sold their produce. Rain and unseasonable cold kept the numbers down to between 1,500 to 2,000. The gathering was peaceful until a police official, in contravention of the mayor's instructions, sent units into the crowd to force it to disperse. At that juncture, a pipe bomb was thrown into the police ranks; the explosion took the lives of seven policemen and injured more than 60 others. The police fired into the crowd of workers, killing four.
