PR CIRCUS SUFFERS FROM THIRST Water Shut Off from the Fair Grounds | at Lincoln, RINGLING YROUBLE FOR BROTHERS Bliteh whh the Water Commissloners Results in a Very Unpleasant Predicament for n Hot Da: ~Lincoln Loeal Notes. LINCOLN, Sept. 11.—(Special.)—The Lin- toln combination of fair and elrcus, while a | big thing in point of numbers, was a sourca ot considerable dissatisfaction to many. The episode of the advent of the circus was marked by a number of disagreeable features. fWhen the parade got back to the falr ground it was diccovered that the water had been ehut oft by order of Water Commissioner | Percival. The panting animals, employes and | attendants at the fair grounds were suffering | rom the intense heat anl there was nothing | with which to assuage thelf thirst on the | ground. This was not remedied until Mayor Graham took a hand in the game and ordered | the water turned on. It developed today that the county fair managers had determined to abandon holding any enterprise of the | kind when the show advertisement struck the | town. Then they manipulated matters o | that the combination was effected, the fair getiing 30 per cent of all reccipts in the atternoon up to 5,000 admissions and 50 per cent on all admissions over 5000. The pros- pect Is that the fair will make a good thing out of the deal, but it Is positive tbat had N0 circus come along there would have been no fair. At a late hour last night William Wo!fe an employe of the Boston slors, was held up by two colored men and robbed of $13. One of them put a pistcl to Wolfe's head while the other went through his pockets. A convict at the state penitentiary, Arthur Brock by name, was buried from that in- stitution today. He was a victim of typhoid fever. The city judgment fund, as appropriated by the last levy, has been found fo be short $5,000. Those who have judgments are o trouble. It is thought likely that this sum will be deducted from the judgment in favor of the Milwaukee Bridge & Iron Works, and that the builders of the viaduct will be obliged o walt until next year for the rest of thelr mor Dr. A L. today brought to the asylum. was one of the oldest settlers of county. Raymond Bros. & Co. have brought suit in the district court against A. L. Hadley & Co., grocers, for $1,700 claimed to be due for goods sold and delivered. The plaintiffs allege that defendants are about to dispose of their property with intent to defraud credit- ors. The sherift has taken possession of some of Hadley's city property, and garni- sheed William Hoatling, another grocer. “The Electric March,” ono of the pleces that will be played by the State band at the Omaha state fair, was composed by a Lincoln lady, Mrs. Martha Gerner.

LINCOLN, Sept. 11.—(Special)—The con- dition of the trusteeship of the Peru Normai school, down fn Nemaha county, has devel- oped & decidedly interesting situation. Church Howe's term as trustee of this Insti- tution expired last spring, but the vacancy has not yet been filled by Governor Holcomb Willis Majors, a brother of the Hickory- shirted statesman of Nemaha, Is another trustee whose term does not expire until next spring. The Majors element of the county are in mortal dread that the governor will reappoint Howe as trustee, though upon they base such a supposition is not definitely known. But the fact remains that, uge as it may seem, in view of past polit- fcal events, overtures have been made by Tom Majors to Governor Holeomb with a view to the permanent retirement of Howe from the trusteeship which he now holds. | Majors' proposition to Governor Holcomb is the' the latter shall immediately remove Howe and appolnt a successor, following which Willis Majors will resign and make another vacancy to be filled by the governor. It is_well understood that ‘a trustceship of the Pern Normal gives the possessor quite a little political pull in Nemaha, and it is for tho purpose of divesting Howe of this small perquisite that Tom Majors has, on several occasions, visited Governor Holcomb and sought to induce him to remove Howe. Mean- whils Governor Holcomb blandly listens to the plausible Majors, but up to date makes one no demonstration in othet. direction or the Jack Stewnr ted Blood.

The western roads made an application to the eastern lines to allow a through rate to be made from points on the eastern lines and in_place of exacting the full local rates to take their agrecd percentage of the through rate.
