\ COUNTY PAIR TO BE A HUMMER.
[ 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.

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.
