The management intent on both instructioi
and amusement has contracted for , as an al
traction , the Coup eques-curriculum of 1
wonderful horses , the best educated in th
world their equals do not exist. Also Profes
sor Freyer's educated dogs. These wonderfu
animals perform military drill with equal pre
cision as old soldiers , and actually perforn
theatrical plays , presenting marvellous am
highly educational exhibitions. They will as
tonish , please , amaze and amuse , not only th <
young , but the old as well. A practical lllus
tration of the power of education , showing t (
what extent even the dumb animals of crea
tion can be educated.
From an interview with the secretary w <
learn that negotiations are pending , witt
promise , of putting a "fust stepper" on th (
race tract , that will chase two minutes closei
than ever before known on the Nebraska state
fair , or any other track in the world.
No painB will be spared this year to make
the coming fair and exposition snperior in all
respects to any of its predecessors. A gener
il public interest is being manifested of most
jncouraging character. Live stock stables ,
stalls and pens are being called for more than
Jsual. Speed purses are filling up nicely.
The two large purses one thousand dollars
> ach guarantee , are already filled to overflow.
Space , too , in all the halls is largely engaged
jven at this date. The secretary says : "AH
ooks big ! If the clerk of the weather smiles
) n us as usual , the fair of 1890 will eclipse all
) thers in the history of the state. "
For information , write the secretary , Robt.
iV. Furnas , Brownville. "His business" is to
'diffuse light and information"in fair matters.

The Burlington is said to be arranging a
sw outlet to the coast preparatory to build-
g a through line from Denver to Ogden.
3 the company is now constructing a line
Dm Nebraska through the Black Hills to S.
ikota , the new road will penetrate an al-
ast undeveloped country , but will have no
irthwestern outlet. The latest scheme of
e company , it is said , will be to continue
e line into Montana , through a choice
ineral section and tap the Northern Pacific
out Billings. This will give the Burling-
I a good outlet , not only to the coast but
the entire northwest as. well. The plan
II in no wise interfere with the proposed
e to Ogden. The road through Dakota
d no connection , and the Burlington peo-
j did not like the idea of humping up
ainst some mountain town in the Black
lis country and awaiting the coming of
ne line to afford it a connection.
