It is a mar: r point of excellence, yet not up to that of some former yoars in the number of exhibits, The circle of states are all represented either in od ring. In some respects horse is being left out in the cold, and sturdy kicks come from some of Lhe extibitors in consequonce.

But, after all, tho foreign compotition that has won red and blue houors arc fine specimens of the horsc, and judgment may have been at fault in plucing the awards. As has boen stated the horse exiibition is marvelous in many gespocts. Phe finest imports of the country are to be seen, Clyaes, Percherons, Englisli- shires, Cleveland bays, Arabians--iu short, evory stram of blood of any promincnce is represented. ‘Phey are all truly magmiicent fn their streneth and beauty. The leading breeders of the state and central wostern country are on the grounds with exhibits Tho “steppers” also, are a source of great ndmiration. About eighty entrics of the “rotters and runners’ of the west are noted. In the cast of premiums on this class, kick- ing, if any at all, has been v t and it stems that the exhibitors are fairly well sutistied with the awards that imve boen de. The Nebraska bred trotter s still a of pride, and he justly wears all hon- ors that have been conferved.

The crop on exhibition is a sod production, and raised without irrigation. 8. J. Shirloy, assisted by H. B. Floming, A. Abbott and Beal & Burch, aisplay this exhibit with evi- dent pride. It cousists of corn, wheat, oats, wiliet, buckwheat, rye, timothy, potatoes, beots, carrots, pumpking, squushes, onions, water and musk melons, turnips, pie_melon and cottonwood slips. A marvelous tumble weed suspends from the ceiling, three f An diameter; one side of the house is plas- tered from magnesia or native lime, and tho finish is wouderful, considering the fact that no wixture of any kind forms its composi- tion.

To the ladies, the fioral and horticultural hall offered great attractions, and from early morn until late 1t was filled with the fair sightseers. They were not alone, however, for thero was a great deal of competition be: tween Jefferson, Richardson, Johuson and Filuiore counties over their respective merits as fruil growing districts. Entering the doorway, the wisitor was at struck with the magniticent display of almost every variety of fruit which stretched out before him. Ap- ples were there from the smallost crab to the heavy twenty ounce, aud from the sweet sumwmer fruit to the more hardy winter grades. Peaches of all kinds and es shared tho samé tables with grapes of eyery varioty, and all day the judges were kept Dusy in Lying to decide which was best where all was good.

A barefooted girl of twelve years, with coal black ecyes and loose flying hair, was playing about the round hous of the Pennsylvania railroad at Newark, N. J., the other day just as the sun wus sinking over Bergen hills, and six or eight men who were sitting around the dismantled caboose, where they ar ening for or or for their regular trips to begin, w watching her us she went from engine to engine, climbing over the tanks, run- ning out on the foothoards or sitting on the pilots and dangling her sunburnt feet. T'wo tin buckets full of coal rest- ing near a discarded tie told why she was around the yard, and it was evident from her actions that she regarded her- self as a privileged character, “It's s'prizin’ how mueh that gal has got to know 'bout an engine in the past year,” suid the blue-eyed engineer of 44, a8 he watched her wiping the bull's- eye of a signal lamp with the hem of ler ragged frock, 1o the reporter of the Newark Call, 1 believe sho could run an engine if she had half a chanee with what she has picked up around he since Mike wus killed, It's just a year next Saturday that he got caught, and she has been around the yard almost every day since. She’ll give over com- ing here when she gets & year or two more on her shouldcrs, you can safely bet, and I'd like to know some way of gotting her some decont employment when she gets too big to be pickin’ coal Maggie Ryan was the daughter of an old switchman who was run over and killed while on duty, and who left a wife and three children without a dollar in the world, Maggio was the oldest child, and she was made a pet of by tho men in the yardand at the round house. No other youngsters are allowed around the carsand engines,and Maggie would not be were the rules strictly enforced. As it is many a dainty is set aside for her from the dinner pails of the train- men, and many a fine lump of coal is dropped from the cars while they ars passing Mrs. Ryan's cabin, where she spends nearly the wholo wagk washing and ivoning for the railroad men. “Maggie is getting to be quite a wo- man,” suid Eddie Stew ashe watched her antics on the engien. *‘Speaking about her running an engine reminds me of the only gal I ever knew who could and did run an engine and run it for all it was worth. I mean Sid Law- sou’s daughter Ella, of Pin Oualk d taught his gal more about railroading than her mother did about cooking and housekeeping, and when Ella was four- toen years old she knew almost as much about an engine as hor father did. He used to let her ride down to Bradle, with him three times a week and she'd sit upon the box by himand keep n sharp lookout ahead. I was fiving for Sam Stonelake then, and often when Llla didn’t want to wait for her father’s train she’d hop on our engine and come home with us. Old Barker saw her on the engine ons day and gave orders that she should never be allowed to ride th i [t purty near broke her heart when sho heard of it,and it made her pap feel purty bad, too, but the order had to be obeyed, and Ellie had to rid in a pi senger coach when she went to Brad- ley’s to the store after that. When sho was between fourteen and fiftcen Doc Studle taught her to telegraph a little, and after that she just haunted the window of the ticket office for hours every day watching Clark Willis, the agent of Pine Oak, a sending and re- ceiving messages. She got so well posted that Clark used to let her prac tice with Doctor Studley over a private wire that Clark put up between the stu- tion and the doctor’s house on the guily road. “It was before the days of telephones, you know, and it wasa great convon- ience to the whole towuship, to have that half mile of private wire from the station to the doctor’s office. When Ellie was sixteen the company took Clark Willis away, promots and sent a young fellow named Cos to vun the office. One day when Cor ran and the gal were alone in the st tion an order came from down vhe road to have engine No. 9 sent down to Mine k bridge instantly, with Dr. Stud- aboard. Th both kuew that there had been an accident and were puzzled 1o know what to do. No. 9 was lying on the siding with her fires banked, and Pete Miller and Bart Headley, the en- gineor and fireman, had gone up to Bradley’s on the accommodation, and could not get back until 5 o’'clock. “It was then three, and two hours might mean life and death, Corcaran hurriedly van around looking for a man to run the engine, but none could be found. When he came back he found Ella standing 1 the door with her hat and jacketon and her faco pale as a corpse. “That is my father's train down there and I am going to bim,’ she said. ‘I have ealled the doctor and he is coming down the road now.’ *“*But there’s no one to run the en- gine,” said Corcoran. ‘I can’t find any one who kuows how to start her or to stop her,’ . O will run her,’ said Tlla, confi- dently, and Dick Harper's lout of a boy who was considerably stuck on Ella.said he would tire for her. By the time the doctor veached the station Harper had the engine steaming, and as soon as the doctor jumped into the cab Ella pulled out and started started slowly down the road. Doc looked surprised when he saw the gal on the box, but he said nothing, and when the engino began to make steam she let out, and before they were out of sight of the vill they were going at a thirty-five mile clip with the gal setting there purty as a picture, with her hair streaming, her cheeks red and her lips closed as tight as she could get them. She had 3 run of eighteen miles with nothing to do but biow for road crossings und keep a lookout for cattle. ‘*It was little more than half an hour when she slacked up at the cut t of Wine Creek and went creeping around the bend.

Clothing never was as cheap as it is now, and never did we mark our goods with such a small profit as we did this season. The larger the business we do the cheaper we can afford to sell. We will inaugurate the fall season with a grand Boys' Clothing Sale, and as at the opening of schools, boys’ clothing are mostly in demand, we propose to make the com- ing week the most memorable one in our boys department. We mean to surprise you with our bargains and that every garment that we sell shall be a big advertisement for us. Here are only a few of the bargains which we offer this week: Twopiece Children’s Suit, size 4 to 13, at $1,00, We cannot describe this suit, but we ask you to come and seeit. You will be astonished what a suit you can get in our store for §1.00. Other houses would charge 00 for such a suit and pretend to give you a bargain. Two piece Children’s Suits, of good cotton mixed Cassimere, heavy weight, nice patterns and well made, at $1.60. But the greatest of all bargains is the Knee Pants Suit we are ofle this season at $2.50. This is a suit we are proud to show.
