Suffice to say, there will be some
thing doing every minute of the day,

to enter the contests and ta pay for

These men are now commencing to
take long morning "hikes" (through
the country, and It Is noticed that
they have unconsciously quickened
their gait In going on their business
errands over town. While It Is not
thought that any of them will take
such strenuous exercise that they
will be disqualified on account of
weight, it is hoped for their own ben
efit that they will confine their exer
cises to the early morning hours be
fore there is danger of sunstroke.
Last year, Just a few minutes be
fore the contest was to start. It was
discovered that the grease dpig had
mysteriously disappeared. Sheriff
Cox and Detective Fisher started on
the culprit's trail, and succeeded in
locating the precious swine In time
for the conietst. ' This year It is
planned to handcuff the pig, secure
it with a log chain in one of the bank
vaults, and set the time lock for five
minutes before the contest Is to
start. . . -
The small boys are urged to "fast"
for about a week before the celebra
tion, as it is possible that a pie-eating
contest may be added. This year
the town girls are practicing on the
feminine events for the day, as the
farmer, girls last year outclassed
them' In almost every contest
There is a prospect of a ball game
between the farmers and the busi
ness men, and rivalry Is already
springing up between the two fac
tions. It Is reported that the farm
ers recently made " a trip to Pine
Ridge and there secured a number of
small saplings that would do as base
ball bats, and are using these in their
practice work. They are proving
very proficient with the imitations,
but it Is probable that they' will be
compelled to make another trip to
the Ridge inside of the next week,
owing to the great amount of Inter
est being shown. The business men
are confident of success, but they are
practicing just the same in anticipa
tion of a game. Sporting goods
houses in Alliance are reducing their
stocks in a hurry because of the
many bats that are being broken.

George W. Harris was fined $1 and
trimmings In police court Monday
morning for being drunk aud disor
derly. Harris came to town from a
farm near Alliance where he had
been working, and for a tired feeling
used wine aa medicine. But he had
no Idea the medicine was so strong,
and before he had taken the eleventh
dose he was feeling extra well so
well. In fact, that he wanted to be a
good fellow to everyone he met. He
was advised that a "sick" man should
hunt a comfortable bed wherein to
lie until the sickness passed, but
George decided to "walk it off".
When he reached the place where the
boys' band was playing Saturday ev
ening, he thought it would be nice to
play all the horns at once, in addition
to beating the drums, but his efforts
along this line proved his undoing,
for the strong arm of the law reach
ed out and clasped him. Monday
morning, after his two-nlght-and-one-day
sojourn in the station, he
told his story. He was a clean, well
appearing young fellow, and it was
not thought that he belonged In the
"rounder" class but that he had Just
mistaken his capacity for "medi
cine". He paid his fine as soon aa
sentence was passed. ,'
Judge Roberts, high tribunal at
the police station, says that business
In that institution has not been so
rushing lately, and the officers have
been given a chance to draw their
breaths." . The judge was unable to
give any explanation for the decrease
In business, but he thinks the unen

1 am opposed to the American sa
loon, because a great majority of the
saloon keepers Join hands with gam
blers, the underworld, and all other
law-breakers In the , controlling of
elections and the debauching of pub
lic officials. The brewers and liquor
dealers have elected a majority of
the city officials of Omaha for years,
and their work along the same line
Is seen throughout the state. So

Who Is a Fanner?
The man that raises the best of all
kinds of field and garden products on
any old kind of sol), any old year,
and a bumper crop when seasons are
ut all favorable. This has been that
kind of a season. If you have been
a good farmer under adverse condi
tions, your crop must be a dreu .
this season, one that would bring
you great credit as a farmer and
properly advertise your community
if properly exhibited to the public.
An inexpensive way to accomplish
this purpose is to gather a good ex
hibit of your crop and send to th
Trt-State Fair at Crawford. Nebras

the freight, you get the credit.
