[ Coulliuied ( roll ! front page. ] | ord last year , without driver or > rider , was 2:18 : which has only once been equaled in the history of this associalion by horses driven. To see the wonderful performance of this mare is alone worth the time and cost of attending the fair. To sec. her ; perform is to realize that the horse has almost human intclfi- gencc. NOVUI.TY KAC S. The novelty races tn be given this year will far surpass any heretofore given. The three-mile relay * race by lady riders and their partners , each riding alter nate half miles , has always , when given heretofore , pleased , the crowd immensely. A new feature in this class of races is another race iu which both ladies and gentlemen may participate. This is a mile and a half race without changing horses. The first ; half mile the horse walks , the second the horse trots , single-foots or paces and the last half mile the horse runs. It is expected there will be many en tries in this race and that it will prove very entertaining. It is hoped by the management that at least twenty of Custer coun ty's best equestrians , both ladies and gentlemen will take part in this race. Then there will be still another relay race of a mile and a half , each rider to use three horses , each horse to go but half a mile , the rider to change saddles with each change of horses. This race should draw large entries from Custer county's boys and young men. Liberal premiums will be paid for win ners of these various relay races. However , the greatest sensa tional free attraction witnessed for the first time west of the Missisaipi river will be given by Prof. Sprenson , of Berwyn , Ne braska , who , in > making bis first experiment a few weeks ago at Berwyn , by mistake had con structed his aeroplane too light , and when five thousand feet from the ground the same broke in two and by a miracle he was not injured though falling the great distance of five thousand feet. He is now constructing a new aeroplane and - will give exhibitions at the County Fair , entirely new in the history of air navigation. This is not a mi re I baleen ascension but will be an exhibition with an aeroplane truly navigating the air. This - time it is believed he will not 'meet ' with another accident and not experience another such fall as he met with a few weeks ago. Lst everyone put away toil rland care for a.few days and come to the Cou nty Fair and be royal ly entertained and instructed. ' , FOR SAI.K Quarter block in a very desirable location. S. M. DORR s Perils Which Endanger The Peace of the World. Uy Professor JOHN VV , BURGESS , Denn of the Columbia School of Political Science. HE GREATEST DANGERS TO THE PEACE , OF THE WORLD SPRING FROM TWO SOURCES NAMELY , THE SUSPECTED PURPOSE OF ENGLAND TO ISOLATE GERMANY AND CRIPPLE ITS COMMERCE AND THE SUSPECTED FUTURE PURPOSE OF JAPAN TO CONTROL CHINA AND MIDDLE ASIA AND CLOSE THEIR DOORS TO FREE COMMERCE WITH OTHER NATIONS. N The Gorman nation within the Gorman empire numbers some jtixty-fivo millions of the most intelligent , moral , capable , peace loving and enterprising people in the world , inhabiting u territory of less than two hundred and ten thousand English square miles , sixty thou sand square miles loss than the single state of Texas , and seeking to provide fo'r these teeming millions not by any policy of territorial aggrandizement , but by n policy of PEACEABLE TRADE AND COALM'KJIOE with the ( world , conferring thus benefit as well as re ceiving it. Any successful attempt to restrict this sound development , sound both from n national and a world point of view , is bound to result in AN" EXPLOSION WIHOH WILL ROCK EUROPE FROM OtfE END TO THE OTHER AND THREATEN THE WELFARE OF AMERICA. Again , China nnd middle Asia , with n population of six hundred million people , have now nppoarcd at the threshold of modern civilization and are about to open their doors to free com merce and intercourse with all civili/cd nations , for the welfare and advantage of all .concerned. ANY SUCCESSFUL ATTEMPT BY JAPAN ALONE OR BY JAPAN , ENGLAND AND RUSSIA IN LEAGUE TO BAR THE WAY OF THIS DEVELOPMENT WOULD BE NOT ONLY A MORTAL AFFRONT TO CHINA AND MIDDLE ASIA , BUT A CHALLENGE TO ALL OTHER NATIONS AND WOULD INEVITABLY PRODUCE A STRUGGLE BE TWEEN THE ORIENT AND THE OCCIDENT , IN WHICH THE POW ERS OF THE OCCIDENT MIGHT BE THEMSELVES DIVIDED. No more perilous situation to these United States of America and the civilization of the modern world could bo imagined than this. Woman Is Man's Equal , Not His Toy. Dy the Rev. WILLIAM O'DKIEN PAK.DOW. Pammu American Jesuit Prcnchci. 'OMAN ' IS NOT MAN'S ' TOY , TO BE THROWN AWAY AT WILL. SHE IS NOT MAN'S SLAVE , TO DO HIS WORK , BUT HIS HELPMEET. She is not merely meant to take care of the flowers of the garden of Eden , but to HELP im [ through his INTELLECT AND HIS HEART. And to do this she must bo in some wny his Buporior. It is sad that man has not understood how woman was to bo his helpmeet. Through the development of his emotions ho has MADE HER A TOY. Sometimes women help on this idea , and wo find them sinking lower and lower. Is the one you hide away. It earns you nothing and is liable to get lost. A Live- .
