LiscoLy, Neb, Sept. 6,—[Special to Tne Ber.|—The Nebraska Columbian commission met Lbis forenoon at the state capitol to com- plete the work left unfinished yestarday Afteruoon. The first thing taken up after the reading of the minutes was the commis- siouer weneral’s report covering tue past three months, The report is a strong argu- ment in favor of an iucreased appropriation by thenext legisiature for the purpose of euabling the commission to carry out its plans of a stato exhibit. 1L is as follows: To the mewmbers cf tho Nebraska Colunbinn commission: Gentlemen—Since my lust re- ort I havo uppointed Lo follgwing superin- of “depurtients: B Whitcomb, apiary: Frank A.

GREAT CROWDS AT THE SHOW | Yesterday's Attendance at the Nebraska State Fair Was Unusaally Large. SPLENDID ARRAY OF EXHIBITS SHOWN | Every Department Crowded Beyond the Wildest Esxpectations of the Man- agement—Many Attractions Offered to Sightseers, Lixcouy, Neb., Sept. 6.—[Speciat to Tns Bee.|—All day yesterday the superintend- ents of the various departments were more than busy, putting their houses in order and nssigning space to belated exhibitors. The latter worked with a will, and today tinds an elegantly arranged aisplay of the products ot the farm, factory and studio. The State Agrioultural society has given twonty-five annual exhibitions, but in all its history not one has been equal to the present, Every department is orowded in spite of a lavish expenditure of money on tho part of the so- ciety in enlarging ouildiogs and pertecting more convenient arrangoments, The man- agers declare they expected the fair to Rrow in proportion to the development of the state, but were not prepared for the flattering in- crease which greets them at this time. The stock exbivit is not only larger but better than ever beforo. The b4l cattle stalls are all full. Iltinois, Kansas, lowa, Missouri, Kentucky and Nebraska are rep- resented in this department. The sheep and hog pens are all taken and more room Is being provided. ‘I'here are nhogs here from a dozen states. Three hunared horse stalls are occupied, and the entries for the races wore never before so numerous, Fifty addivional stalls wero added this year and vet all Lincoln horsemen have been requested to remove thoir stock from the grounds at night, for lack of quarters. Farmers Making a Slendid Show. Horticultural hall has emerged from a promiscuous heap of farm products to an artistically arranged combination of county exhibits whioh no state in the uunion cun excel. Prof. Bussey remarked that every year tho cultivated grass crowds farthor and farther west, and this yoar there are luxuriant specimens of the various grasses from counties which, a fow years ago, wero not supposed to be capablo of producing any- thingor the kind. * Sioux, Burt, Gage, Hitch- cock, Dundy, Kearney, Box Butte, Harlan, Kimball and Perkins counties are among those having particularly poticeable ex- hibits. Box Butte has a splendid collection of sheaf grains and grasses, among which is asheaf of oats higher than s tall man’s head. In spieof a late, wet spring, Ne- braska farmers never in their lives before had tho material at haud to make such a magnificent showing as they are proudly exhibiting here today. Somo of the cou ties post the sign, ‘“Che rainmaker failed, or We did not hire a raimmmaker,” to show that their owa hands and brains, assisted by nature, is all that is necessary t0 raise a crop in Nebraska. “I'he Grand [sland and Norfolk beet sugar works have a combination exhibit, the main features of which are samples of beets, 200 sicks of sugar and & miniature representa- tion of the beetsugar palace at Grand Island. The Crote mills are represented by s 12x18 model of the “B" mill, filled with flour. The state fishing exhivit is atiracting more than ordinary attention, from the fact that the specimens are much larger 1n size than: formerly, and 4 number of new varietres are’ here. The beuutiful mountain trout, swimming about among great blocks of ice with which their aquarium is provided, aro especially interesting. D. C. Mosher, in charge of horticultural hall, says: **We have more flowers and loss fruit this year than common.”" In spite of the fact that this 1s a poor fruit year, the dis- play is very creditable and horticultural hall has @ kind of garden of Eden appearauoe, In Other Departments. The bee and honey hall, although twice as laree as last year, is filled with an exnibit which attracts much attention. Beos, honey and patentextractors are on every hand. A wreath of beeswax flowers made by Mrs, Whitcomb is worth a frip to Lincoln to see, The poultry show ie also in advance of former years.” The old cock that chronicled Peter’s disgrace and all his descendents are bere. A numberof patent incubators are on exhibition. The agricultuial implement department is ot least one-tbird larger than ever before. Omaha and Council Bluffs 1ead in exhibitors, with Lincoln @ close third. Superia. tendent J. M. Burks says toe display of wagons, buggies and carriages is away in excess of all former years, while threshers, reapers and plows have fallen off. Men di- rect from Des Moines say the display hore is more than double that of the Iowa state fair, The windmilt exhibit covers an acre of @round. H. G. Clark, superintendent of the display in mercantile hall, says he could have let nearly as much more room if it had been prepared. The hall is very large but every incn is taken and many shut out for want of space. “Our exhibit,” saia he, “is not only larger but finer than ever be- fore, We have exhibitors here from Mon- mouth, IlL., from Iowa, Kausas and other states.” Art hall has kept pace with the general advance and is one of the most attractive ex- hibits here. Tn textile fabrics the display is especially fine, Kverything is on & larger scale and in noarly all departments the rapia advance in agriculture and the arts, which is so warked althis time, is a gratifying feature of the axhibit. Tho attendance today is very large, the ample grounds, amphitheater and all halls and bulldings being filled with thousands of visitors from this and other states. TLere are twenty-one uniformed bands on the grounds. This is childven’s and people's party day. The little folks are kere in force, and if any- thing escapes their observation it is some- thing unworthy of notice. The magnificent agriccliural and farm product exhipits seem to overshadow political demonstrations, 1f such were intended. 3 Huadreds of people were turned away from the amphitheater this afternoon, for want of room. Ivery hotel in the city is crowded to ics fullest capacity, strangers in some instances paying as high as $1 for a oot 1n a corrider. There probably has never been as many peoplo a% tho Nebraska state fair, from abroad, us now. The weather 1s cool and air bracing. Tomorrow will be the big day, though it is hard to see how it can excel today in poiat of numbers present. Among the Exhibitors, The Nebrasks Binder Twine company’s exnibit utiracts much attention, and as a Nebraska manufacturing company’s eutor- rise deserves cial mention, Their twine s tested overy few minutes, and this testing domonstrates to the sutisfaction of all that the best binder twinein the world Is mude | at Fremont, Neb. The salos of the company last year amouated to 700,000 pounds, and this year every farmer should insist on hay- ing Nebrasks made twine. Thoir prices will be furnished upon application by mail or otherwise. Their twine is made from pure American hemp, grown in Nebraska, by Ne. brasksa farmers, thus reducing the acreage of other competing crops. Box Butte county comes to the front again this yvear with anice dispiay. Those in oharge are Industriously circulating adver- tisicg, and no doubt will induce many to sot. tlo in Box Butte county sgain this year, Box Butts county just reebiéod first promium oa wheat againat the whible state. G. D. Edwards, maaager of the Columbus Bugey company of Omaha, came down to Lincoln this morning 8 ‘roman with the bal- ance of the boys 1n afaege of the exhibit. H. H. Martin, £. R. Sadler and_F. J. Johnson are the others looking after the interests of the Columbus Bugfl’ vompany. Another building has been ereoted for thoir display of fine carringes, buggigs. etc., which is second 10 none on the grounas. Thoy have about forty vehftles displayed and are extending every opurtesy to ali their ous- tomers, and the ratail dealers throughout the state find the Columbus Buggy com- pany's exhibit & cofivenient location to fn- 8DAct tho newest styjesin vehicles. At tho state fair every year all the Nebraska whole- sale dealers are mot Afid taken care of in the most generous manner possible. KEvery possible courtesy 18 extended them, and they are well provided for. The voys in oharge of this exhibit even have a suite of rooms down town, where they entertain during the evenings, Last week at the Iowa state fair at Des Moines the Columbus Buggy company received first promium over thirty different competitors for bust ceneral ais- play of vehicles; this coming so close to thelr first premium recaived at the St, Louls fair last fall spoaks volumes for the Colum- bus Buggy compuny’s woods. They would be only too glad to compote here for & pre- miam, but there is none offered. The Colum- bus Buggy company of Omaha also represent the Staver & Abbott Manufacturing com- pauy of Chicago, who are aiso_leaders in their grade of work. Burks & Cadman are tho Lincoln representatives of the Colum- bus Buggy company, and carry o full line of this celebrated work. 1t stock, T'he Avery Planter company occupy thelr periuanent building as usual, The exhibit is undor tho supervision of the Omaha house, of which Mr. F.

They display nothiug especially new this year, their ‘goods being il standard and weil known, upon whioh their corn planters, cultivators, stalk cutters and seeders have builded up'a reputation second to none.

Wealthy Widow Tusler Gives Her Brother Charge of Her Property Again, Another chapter has been added to the Tusler-Keenan-Stoddard troubles and this time Dr. George Keenan of Maaison, Wis., holds the winning hand. Tue Bee readers ave familiar wita the case, They know that when Mrs. Catherine Tusler _became a widow sho was possessed of casn, bank stook and herds of cattle and 1i6F5es. These dumb ani- mals grazed upon vhe: western ‘hills, and rapidly grew into dollars, They also know that the” Wisconsin dootor, who was Mrs. Tusler’s brother, looked after her finances until her son-in-law, H.

He, how- ever, had a five-year contract with his sister, aad when it was ‘declared off he brought suit ‘and roevered a judgment of $20,000. This he held over her head untila few days ago, when peace was declared by a cancellation of thejudgment and a revooca- tion of the power of attorney to Stoddara. In seoking for amanto represent her in- terests Mrs, Tusler has appointed Dr. Fox of Madison, Wis., as her'attorney.
