Nearly all of the cattle, hor.-.cs and hogs were in splendid condition with the exception of fatness anil this w ill be of no particular dis advantage to exhibitors an quality is to be the main feature in I'rof. Ashby's judging. The farmers were assured that this was not a fat stock show and were urged to bring in their animals no matter if they were not in their custo mary weight and condition. And right here the committee wishes to state that it was not shown an animal which it TV jvi'.d rot !s proud Usee put on exhibi tion at the show Sept. 1st. Nothing happened to mar the successful con clusion of the trip other than the ac ciilfr.t to Messrs. Tit:', and Sayles, their team becoming frigtened at an auto mobile resulting in a broken buggy pole and spilling the boys out. A few cuts ar.d bruises which were not serious covered the extent of the physical damages. The horses were not hurt, and a broken pole and buggy top were the only damages to .the rig. The accident happened r.ear the farm of ("hurley Jean, who offered every thing at his command in the predica ment, bringing the boosters to town with his splendid single driver, for which In; has their thanks. Everything points 1o success in connection with the stock, fruit and grain show feature of the carnival and the committee is busy at work completing final arrangements for the care and protection of the ex hibits expected. William Hohlshub returned Monday evening from a trip to Oklahoma. He reports that the weather in that part of the country is about as dry as it is hereabouts, with the corn suffering greatly though the small grain did well and a fair crop of cotton has been reali zed. iafisfiei 09CI are our greatest asset. We are more par ticular to have our goods satisfactory than we are to make money on them. That is the way we have built up our business. You can rest assured that anything you buy here will be your moneys worth as we con sider your money on deposit till that time. For Carnival week we are making special carnival prices and the lowering of theprice does not mean the lowering of the quality. Keep your eye on this store during Carnival. It will pay you. C. E.

The apple -crop in England is reported to be far ' belo w the average and there is an in ! creased demand, not only for fancy fruits but also medium grades. Robt. 1.

The Wild West and Far East Many Interesting Features Will IJe Seen with the Buffalo 3 i 111 and Pawnee Bill Exhibitions. Considerable interest has been arous ed in this vicinity through the announc ed appearance of IHilfalo Hill's Wild West and Pawnee Pill's Far East at Nebraska City, Sept. 7th. Col. Wm. V. Cody, the original and only "Huffalo Hill," travels with the big exhibition and positively appears at every performance, rain or shine. Ar rangements have been made with the railroad officials to run excursions at special rates from the various stations along the line and there will be special provisions for the accommodation of those who wish to visit the exhibition. To the small boy and grown up Buffalo Pill will be the chief attraction, for his fame is not dimmed by the years w hich have elapsed since he helped write the story of the west through his heroic deeds. One of the principal contests of the redmen, in which he took active part, will be pictured in the open air melodrama, The Battle of Summit Springs, an engagement in miniature j introducing more than one hundred In dians and as many cavalrymen and sol diers. Contrasted with this scene will be An Oriental Spectacle which will picture the gorgeous heuaties of the Far Etist, its pageantry and people, its pleas ures and pastimes, and its strange cos tumes and customs. Turning again to American hsitory there will be An At tack Upon an Emigrant Train, A holiday at "T-E" Ranch, and The Great Train Hold-Up by Indians.showing varied pic tures of early life upon the boundless 1 plains. Rossi's Musical Elephants will be a particular feature of the Far East scene, and as an individual feature of the Wild West section of the exhibition Ray Thompson's Trained Western Range Horses will be shown in feats of grace and equine skill. Sharpshooting i by Johnny Baker will be a particular attractive feature, and a bunch of bucking bronchos will furnish the prin- . cipal comody element of a truly exhil arating and strenuous exhibition. Liberati. The Managers of the State Fair nt Lincoln, September fith to 10th, have again secured the world renowned I.ib erati's Band of New York. They will give three grand concerts in the Audi torium every day and one concert each evening in front of the Grand Stand. Besides the band he has with him a full complement of Grand Opera singer. To those who have attended the State Fair the past two years that is an nouncement enough. County Commissioners Switzcr and Jordon, of Weeping Water and Alvo respectively, were in the city Tuesday attending a meeting of the board. Oak Leaf Diet Kills Cattle The stockmen grazing their cattle on the National Forests in the southwest, esre. iaily in Colt rado an 1 New Mexico, have suffered serious losses during the pres nt summer through the cattle eat ing oak leaves. 1 1 that section of the country the seas"!i has been unusually dry and grass cxircticly scarce. To eke out the scanty for.. supply, the cattle have browned U : on the scrub oak which covers !a:y. j tioi.s of the range. Ordinarily tin : ;:.!; does not bnwse much on the oa;. : :.,! the little th-y do get. taken wi.i;. i I'irfood, n not injunoi; , but wli .-, atinli.o present, season, the oak l "o,' inrni -lies a large proport ioii of the .. :ly food of the cattle, the re. alls lire : "V. oil.:. T; e o ik leaves a I id sprouts contain a lar , pt iv. iilage of tannic acid. The act :i i i' this acid on the stomach isex tn :i.--'y inJuriwiH and the lo. so.-; have been ;.',i;.-ually severe. The symptoms are slaring eyes, feverish and blistered lips and nose, the animal eea.- i s to graze or seek for food, stand in" ::. one place fur hours at a lime. T:.o coat becomes rough and the hair isa.l in1, lied the w Tong way, as in cases of io'S) pi is'sning. The animal dm a not chew its cud and in a comparatively short time it. becomes too weak to re main on its feet anil death rapidly fol lows So far as is known the only available remedy for this trouble is linsead oi given as a drench in amounts from one to two quarts. The oil appears to over come the injurious effects of tannic acid and if the disease is not advanced to far and the animal can be furnished suffi cient food so it will not be forced to eat the oak, it will generally recover. The best method, of course in handling the trouble, is, if possible, to get the cattle away from the range where the oak is fouir! and furnish them with plenty of fresh green feed to build up again. This is Sure And Certain The Proof That Plattsmouth People Cannot Deny What could furnish stronger evidence of the efficiency of tiny remedy than the test of time? Thousands of people testify that Doan's Kidney Pills cure permanently. Home endorsement should prove un doubtedly the merit of this remedy. Years ago your friends and neighbors testified to the relief they had derived from the use of Doan's Kidney Pills They now confirm their testimonials. They say time has completed the test. J. B. Patridge, Sth st., Plattsmouth, N'ebr., says: "I suffered almost con stantly from pains across my loins and kidneys and at times I was in a bad way. On several occasions I was so badly crippled that I could only get about with the aid of two canes. The first box of Doan's Kidney Pills, pro cured from Coring t Co's. drug store, helped me so greatly that I continued taking the remedy and it brought me entire relief. It would be impossible for me to speak too highly of Doan's Kidney Pills." The above statement was given in Juno l!)()ti and on Dec. 2), l'JW, Mr. Patridge said: "I still endorse Doan's Kidney Pills highly. I willingly renew the statement I gave over two years ago in their favor." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-ft ilburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United Sttitcs.

Mr. and Mrs. Don York returned Tuesday evening from their wedding trip which included the Seattle exposi tion and other coast cities as well as Denver and other mountain cities. They were absent about four weeks and re port themselves as having enjoyed every moment of the trip. They commenced keeping house yesterday in the groom's' property on South Kh street whi re they will be at home to their many friends. Mrs. W.IL Scnildknccht has returned from a trip of a year or such a matter , spent on the Pacific coast, in the inter- i est of her health. Her many friends' are glad to see her back and trust that ' the improvmetit in her health will be ' permanent. War on Dogs. In compliance with the proclamation of Mayor Sattler tho police yesterday were notified to commence tlio war of extermination on the horde of hungry canines which have been wont to roam the streets of tho city unmolested. Ac cordingly the chief came on duty armed with a doubled barreled shotgun. The result of the first half day would seem to indicate that our minion of the law did not avail himself of the opea season on ducks last fall and was consequently not in the best of practice. However, ho dal not make many cry bad blun ders m marksman-. hip, and by the time of the no-m hour the dogs hud become very scarce. Dr. Lister r ports a sdight increase in the s;de of liccti -e lags.

Immediately after the ceremony a reception was tendered the newly mar ried couple at the residence of the bride, which had been handsomely decorated for the occasion, a wealth of cut flowers being in evidence everywhere. Im mediately following this a wedding breakfast was served, and last evening a hall was given in honor of the happy couple at the new K. S. hall on West Oak street. Both of these young people have grown from childhood in this city and number their friends by the score who will join with the Nkwm-Hf.hai.I) in wishing them a most happy voyage on the matrimonial sea. Adam Kaffenberger and Adam For nolf went to South Dakota the first of the week. Both of these gentlemen have large farming interests in that state and this trip was made for the purpose of lookingafter the same. 4$kzi i-i-"V ? tern m l:0f'ij.
