He was on his way home from Kansas City, where, in company with W. M. Campbell, of Foster, he had been to see the presi- dent and his wife..

The display of fruits is perhaps the best on exhibition, but the mineral and agricultural interests of the county have been sadly neglected. Now this is not as it should be and the Times man was sorry to see one of the foremost counties in the state, in point of agricultural and mineral products and wealth, being so con- spicuously placed before the eyes of the thousands ofsight-seers so poor- ly represented. Mr. O. J. Welton, who has charge of the arrangement of articles has made the very best display he could with the articles at hand. night he had just received and was placing on exhibition a lot of corn, and informed us that many articles which he had been looking for, such as coal, stone, etc., had not arrived, Times warned its readers the week be- fore, was played on our streets Thursday, the show day, and it found an abundant crop of suckers.

Some time during Saturday night sneak thieves entered the residence of J. W. Reisner, on Pine street, and ransacked the house. Entrance was made through the front door, which had not been locked. The thieves made their way upstairs into the bedroom of Mr. Reisner and, after relieving his clothing, which was hanging on the head of his bed, of a silver watch and $5 in cash, pro- ceeded to the other rooms in the house and went through them in a systematic manner, pulling out the bureau drawers and scattering their contents over the floor. To light them in their nefarious work, the thieves used matches, and dozens of them, half burnt, were found scat- tered over the floor next morning. Mrs. Reisner heard them in the house, but supposed the noise was caused by her invalid mother, whois in the habit of getting up during the night, and no attention was paid to the matter. Outside of the above articles, nothing else was missed. This is the third or fourth house that has been entered in this city lately, and it is about time a stop was being put to the work of these light-finger- ed gentry. If nothing else will do, a little powder and lead would be a good antidote. WELL, Lt 90 BEAT ALL!
