sational divorce case, in which charges
and counter charges were made and
denied in the petition, cross petition
and answer, was tried before Judge
Dickson last Monday and the promis
ed sensation did not materialize as

$300 of which Is to be paid at once and
the balance, $000, in lifteeu days. He
also was assessed $200 as attorneys
fees for the defendants attorney. The

SHOWING SECTION OF MILLION
DOLLAR STOCK PARADE
AN INTERSTATE FAIR FEATURE IN BLUE-BLOODS. j
One of the most attractive features
of the Interstate Live Stock Fair, at
Sioux City, is the annual parade of
blue-blooded cattle and horses. This
year the parade will be staged on
Friday, September 19. Over $1,000,
000 worth of stock will be represented
in the parade, and all the animals will
wear the badges captured during the
show.
The parade is always lead by a mil
itary band and other musical organ
izations are worked in to break up
the various sections. From ten to fif
teen states usually are represented
in this stock promenade, and the
proud bloods of their kind arc lead by
the ownerB. The parade takes place
LINEr WITH GOLD.
Alaska’s Enormous Deposits Will Last
a Thousand Years.
Like a tale out of the “Arabian
Nights’’ is the opinion given recently
by an expert on the future of Alaskan
gold mining, only this expert bases his
opinion on facts, whereas the oriental
story teller specialized in fancy.
But the testimony given by Falcom
Josliu is doubly interesting because it
exceeds the imagination of the wildest
fancy while being based on the facts
in the case.
“In my judgment,” says Mr. Joslln.
“the placer mining industry in Alaska
will last a thousand years, the area
suitable for placer mining is so enor
mous. What we are working there
now is only the gravels that will carry
from $3 to $10 a yard. You cannot
work gravels that carry less than that,
but once we have transportation there
and can work gravels such as they do
in California, which carry 7 cents a
yard, we have got so nearly an unlim
ited area of it that no man can foresee
the end of that industry in Alaska.
“One great thing is that nearly the
whole area of Alaska is gold bearing.
There are placers and quartz. It has
been said, and I believe the statistics
and explorations of the geological sur
vey show It, that you could go from
the extreme southeast of Alaska at
Ketchikan, where there are important
mines, along this route by way of
Halns clear out to Nome, a distance of
2,000 miles in a straight line, and that
in every twenty mile section along
that route you could develop gold
mines. It is Infinitely greater than
any other area of gold country that
has ever been found in the world.”—
Engineering and Mining Journal.
Nice For the Lady.
Quite regularly a certain London
school teacher invited two miserable
little girls to spend Saturday afternoon
at her house. Knowing how overbur
dened with work the mother was and
bow much the children’s moral educa
tion «;as neglected at home, a settle
ment worker ventured to congratulate
the parent
“What a great advantage for them!”
she said. “How exceedingly kind of
her!”
“No doubt she’s glad of comp’ny,”
complacently returned the mother.—

before the grandstand, and the crowds
in motor and bleacher row.
Entries now in the hands of Secre
tary Joe Morton, of the fair associa
tion, indicate that "this stock parade
will rival any similar showing in the
big fairs, east and west. Many mem
bers of the horse and cattle aristocra
cy entered in the Sioux City show
have carried off the honors in Chica
go, Des Moines, Lincoln, Huron and
Hamline. The pick of the animalB
shown at these fairs this year will be
entered at Sioux City. Because of
the excellence of the Sioux City mar
ket and the interest in better stock
in the adjacent territory breeders
make hard fights for recognition at
the Interstate Fair.
FIGURES OF SPEECH.
Just Suppose For a Moment That They
Alt Turned to Facts.
No situation is more difficult to deal
with than that in which a figure of
speech becomes a fact. 1 mean that
when we have been using a phrase
truly, but in its general and rj,etaphor
ical sense, we are rather embarrassed
than otherwise if we find that it is
true, even in its strict and literal sense
There does not seem to be anything
more to say. Suppose you heard a
family remark casually, "It’s madness
In papa to go to Norway!” And sup
pose the next instant papa sprang into
the room through a smushed window
with straws in his hair and a carving
knife and howled aloud: "Ubbubboo
I’m going to Norway!” The incidenl
would be disconcerting. It would not
be easy to pursue the subject
Or suppose we said to some stately
silver haired woman who was an
noyed, “I think It childish of you to
take offense so easily." And suppose
she sat down suddenly on the fiooi
and began to scream for her doll and
her skipping rope. We would be at a
loss. Words suited to the situation
would not easily suggest themselves.
Of if a wife said to her husband
apropos of a luxurious friend to whom
he gave expensive dinners, “He’s slm
ply robbing you,” her remarks would I
be cut short rather than further en
eouraged by the sight of the friend
climbing out of the window with the
silver teapot under his arm. The wife
would have the extremely unpleasani
sensation of having said the worst
thing she could and having nothing
more to say.
Cases, of course, could be multiplied
indefinitely, as the case of one who.
entering a lodging house, should say
"Rats!” in disparagement of its praises ■
and find himself instantly surrounded
by those animals, or one who should i
remark, “Uncle Joseph has lost his j
head over this,” and should find him ,
decapitated in the garden.—Illustrated ,

‘So Burroughs owes you money? (
Well, I think he'll pay you back some 8

lately ’’—Philadelphia Press. I
