In accordance with the universally recognized fact that the amusement feature plays quite a major part in the general success of a fair, and that new and novel attractions should be provided for the patrons, the Managers of the State Fair have closed a contract with Charles J. Strobel, of Toledo, Ohio, who, since the retirement of Boy Knabenshue, is acknowledged to be the world’s premier airship manipulator, for making daily flights at the Fair Grounds, Lincoln, Sept. 2nd to 6th. Mr. Strobel delighted thousands at the St. Loqis and Portland Expo sitions, and at the Iowa State Fair last year and will come direct from an engagement at the Jamestown Death of Mrs. Glinsman. - Mrs. Anna Gesehe Glinsman, mother of Henry, Peter and George Glinsman of this county, died at her home, near Ashton, on April 22,1907, at the age of 85 years, 2 months and 8 days. The funeral was held from the German Lutheran church near the Glinsman farm on Wednesday and the remains laid to rest in the cemetery near the church. Her husband died April 16th, 1880.

Mr. and Mrs. Loren Gee were the guests of Judge Hunter and wife on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week. Mr. Gee is badly crippled from being thrown from a horse some four or five weeks ago, but is gaining health rapidly. This is the fourth time Mr. Gee has been badly injured in acci dents of various natures. The goodly couple are perfecting their arrange ments to make a protracted visit to Southern California, expecting to start about the 15th of this month. We trust they will have a most pleasant vacation. D. M. Gue left for his home at Long Beach, Calif., on Tuesday of this week. Mr. Gue has his business affairs so well in hand that he con cluded to hasten home before his absence would necessitate an in troduction to his good family. Our jolly friend whispers to us sub rosa that two years from now may find him back in this country, but the present state of his wife's health necessitates their staying in that sunny southern clime for an indefinite period. Our people will wish for Mrs. Gue an early return to robust health and their coming back to God’s country. Loup City School Notes The tenth grade finished their work in Caesar Tuesday.
