in sport that the ski shines to the
greatest advantage. Mr. Savogren
cites a case of a long hill in Sweden
some two miles In length, where
great annual tournament is held at
which the expert Bkl runners come
from all over the country and com
pete for prizes. At the foot of this
hill there Is an artificial mound con
structed which the runners dash up
and then leap out Into space. They
sometimes leap one hundred feet
through the air and alight upon their
feet. Should one be unfortunate
enough to miss his footing he must
inevitably get a fall attended with
more or less danger. To escape in

states the sensation of a ski run is
something peculiarly delightful and
exhileratlng. It must also be borne
in mind that the ski has a groove
in the bottom of It to prevent It
sliding sideways when running or
sliding. It is the intention of Mr.
Savogren and several of his men to
try the ski upon the steep hills of
the city should the snow stay on.

Talk about Ak-Sar-Ben and State
Fair crowds! There Is nothing In
them to compare with the crowd
which went to Omaha this morning
for the corn show and Christmas
shopping. It Is true that some of
them went there on real business
matters but the bulk of tnem were
passengers to take In the corn show
and see what Santa Claus had in the
windows. The Burlington station at
this point will certainly have to be
enlarged to accomodate the crowds
if this exodus is to continue. This
morning the women's waiting room
was so congested that standing room
was at a premium and many were
forced to stand outside on the plat
form. If that isn't going some, we
don't know. Ye reporter endeav
ored to get the names of those who
comprised the multitude but soon
gave up as a bad Job and retired
from the field discomfited and de
feated. In the presence of such an
overwhelming aray of femenlne love
liness, he found that his pencil fal
tered and was weak and he only got
down the names of about one
seventh part of them. The rest will
have to be content with being mere
ly mentioned as a part of the crowd.

To Raise Fine Cattle.
George Snyder and Ben Horning,
two of the best breeders in this sec
tion, have concluded the purchase
of a fine young shorthorn bull calf.
They bought the animal at the sale
held In South Omaha a few days
ago, paying the sum of $260 all
told for him and they are quite
proud of their bargain. He will form
the nucleus of a fine herd which these
enterprising gentlemen are getting
together and makes a big step for
ward in cattle breeding In this coun
ty. Mr. Snyder also invested in a
fine short horn cow which he in
tends to use to the best advantage.
Cass county needs more men in the
cattle business like Messrs. Horning
and Snyder.

Is reported this afternoon as not at

and Is weaker. The attending phy

for his recovery, his advanced age
precluding his recovery almost.
Hopes were entertained for a better
condition but it has. failed to mater
