pleasures of the day. The great throng of
people evidently cnmo to BOO what is to be

In general featured of Interest this depart-
im-nt Is fully abreast with the exhibit ot any
year , whllo'the records of the past arc con
siderably exceeded. Kvery foot of availa
ble space is occupied. Gentlemanly superin
tendents and assistants tuko great pleasure
In showing tlio merits of tliolr machinery ,
ofolso they yield to trained urbanity. This
great exhibit includes everything used by the
Boeder nnd harvester , from the time the
farmer commenced the preparation of his
soil until he harvests his crop and prepares it
for the granaries. Points of oxeullcnco"
glisten under beautiful coats of paint and de
fects nnd weak points are possibly hid by the
Bauio article. Kvery reaper , mower and har
vester known to tlio western trade seeks admiration -
miration and calls fur special attention. The
cultivator , plow and harrow In endless vari
ety.mid style have a proper plnco In the ox-
lublt. The fcstivo corn planter , although
months out of season , stilt Invites the atten
tion of the granger , and In groups they can
vas the merits of the chcckrowor and other
attachments. Then the wagons , buggies ,
carriages and phaetons , witli their
( jlossy coats and elegant , trimmings , are
a source of special admiration. They make
ona think of younger days , when with

a drive over a pleasant country road. Hut

ning mill , seeder , drill , shelters , hydraulic
boring and drilling machines , pumps , lawn
mowers , wind engines , hay rakes and forks ,
pulleys , scales and the patent article in general -
oral , and an idea is gathered of the wonder
ful machine exhibition for 1833. About the

mony with their deserved popularity. Their
mime is a household word in broad America ,
nnd the members of the linn living examples
of what Americans can do in a manufactur
ing enterprise that gives the people at largo
the value of their monoy. Every department
of their immense factory Is a model of com
pleteness no detail too small for attention
no obstacle so great but what their perfect
nystcm can overcome. Their merit has been
recognized by past premiums at our state fair
every year that they have entered the arena.
This year they surpass all previous attempts
und show a line of vehicles that ore great.
Mr. Hill , their Nebraska representative ,
says : "Wo have carnca the war into the en

The mngnlllcent showing mniio at nrt hall
has certainly never been equalled since the
Btato fair has been located nt Lincoln. As a
rule tno exhibits are larger than lust year ,
and they have been arranged and put to
gether with better taste. They are richer ,
more beautiful nnd attract more attention.
The average visitor possibly finds more
things of general interest at art hall than in
ny other part of the grounds. The state
ftiir standard Is very evenly maintained
throughout , ami the common ov mediocre ex
hibit is very rare in this palace of beauty.
One can nofdo justice to art hall In a single
< * y. To fully appreciate the display each
rzhlUlt will requite inspection and study.
The taowledgc thus gained will more than
Repay the visitor and sightseer for the time
Client.
Entering the hall from the north and nt
# ie right can bo seen a collection of bromide
portraits thut arc pronounced remarkably
line by experts. The photography exhibit
on the opposite side of the hall is equal to
nnythlng of the kind over neon in the west.
And the wonderful paintings to be seen In
nil parts of the halll They are the admira
tion of every eye. Oil paintings , sketchings ,

work , pen drawings , porcelain plaque in oil ,
landscapes In water colors , ( lowers and fruit

bed spreads and every conceivable thingthat
comes from the hands and the genius of west-

ness college exhibits some fine specimens ol

will , however , give it sturdy competition in
every department.
Hut this Is only the beginning of this great
exhibit. It Includes the work of the shirt
maker nnd the Inundryman ; thn shoe maker
nnd thu horse slioer ; the cabinet maker am
the undertaker. Then the display of mtisicn
instruments and the odds nnd ends of this
department of business nre almost past humai

The poultry exhibit u inodust but Interest
ing und lino. And yet it Is largely cowparec
\yltli Hint of some former years. It Is noisy
too , and reminds one of a great farm yard a
en early morning hour , The shining backs
of the line , fat nnd fancy chickens , geese
tiurks , turkeys , pigeon * and other foathorci
birds presents a very pleasing sight. As in
credible as It may svotn ther nro many pee
the grounds who esteem this thu lines
cattiroot the fair. It receives a great deal
f attention and admiration. In addition to
icarly all the varieties of the poultry world
mown to this country , can bo seen cages of
abblts nnd guinea pigs. Their cute antics
reato no end of amusement for young
America. This part'of the show Is not the
cast by any means. The game bantam cuts
ils swell when not terrorized by the close
iroxluiity of strangers' , and the pea
Towl strut In his gaudy plu-
iinyo as though at home , the
king nnd pride of the farm yard. It goes
vithout Haying that the poultry exhibit Is the
Inest over given since the state fair has been
ocatcd at the capital city.

The cattle show for 18iS is larger In num-
jors if not equal In quality to that of any
former year. Hut exports , however , pro-
lounce it bettor in every w.iv. In this ox-
ilblt breeders from Nebraska , Illinois , Iowa ,
Missouri and Kansas are represented. The
herds nro extensive and remarkably fine In
ippcarnncc. The supremacy of the short-
101 n strain Is now n matter of very grave
pic.stion. It finds ripe competition in the
'oiled Angus , Hereford , llolsteln and Gal-
.owny. They are here In all their glory. The
ittlo .ler.ioy pushes its claim as a milker.
1'tiu presumption is not based upon quantity
jut quality. Many people are inclined to
recognize it. The fat cattle exhibit is re-
naikablo. Abe Hourquln , ot Nakomls , ill. ,
exhibits the ilrst nnd only herd of brown
Swiss cattle over seen in the state. "I'etor
1'ipor , " a six-year-old Polled Angus bull ,
weighs ! i,7. > 5 pounds. 1'lutarch , of the Hereford
ford family , his only promlnqnt competitor ,
Weighs ! 2r > UU , and ho is a year younger. The
cattle show is simply superb , nnd It Is the
delight of the farmers from all parts of the
country. Dictator , of the Ouernsny family ,
carries papers to show that ho has taken Ilrst
ircniiiun nt the state fairs of Vermont ,
lihodo Island , Connecticut and Massachu
setts. "Mnxoy ad" is probably at the head
of the Galloway exhibit ,
Tlio cows , heifers and calves are very fine.
There are representatives of them In nearly
ill the herds and strains of blood. Thcro Is
narked competition throughout this class ,
ind the premium awards will have to bo
made with discriminating care and In making
.Item the committee will have to split hairs.
J'ho cattle exhibit will have to bo seen to bo
appreciated. '
THE uusr iEn. :
Tlio bee stiow is not largo but It Is very
n-otty. K. Kritchmer. of Coburg , In. , bus by
ill odds the display of this exhibit , tie has
"OJ different articles to tempt tlio Interest of
.he visitor , including four glass hives of
Italian boc.s , which prove Interesting to nil ,
whether posted in bee culture or not , Thcro
s also a full display of device ! designed for
, ho care and management of bees.
HmvUa apiary , of Columbus , also has n
rery flue exhibit of honey in comb and
strained honey in jars. A tower made of
'jees' wax attracts tlio eye , and also a p'yra-
nid of honey in comb. No one who visits
the fair can afford to return homo without
seeing the busy boo and the apiary exhibit.

The sound of music never dias away In nrt
hall during the entire day. There are plenty
of musical instruments , and n great many
Nebraska lads and lasses who knew how to
use them.
The potter nt his wheel keeps a constant
crowd around him. The exhibit of the Lin
coln pottery 13 ono of tireless I merest. It is
really ono of the great attractions ou the
grounds.
Prayers for rein avail not. For the first
time during tlio history of the state fairs nt
Lincoln the gentle rain has failed to fall.
Sufficient rain to lay the dust would prove a
great blessing.
The parade arranged for to-morrow evening -
ing will bo ono of the great events of the
fair. No visitor should fail to see it. The
manufacturing interests of Lincoln will bo
represented In the line of inarch , and over
SOU traveling men will give it rest und spirit.
Tarry in Lincoln for the parade.
Tlio discipline on the grounds this year Is
marvelous. There has been no trouble re
ported from any quarter , and to date there
has not been a single arrest.
The fruit tree and evergreen exhibit ought
to bo visited by every Ncbraskan who takes
an Interest In fruit-tree growing. This is anew
now attraction and n very commendable one.
As usual , Thursday Is set up for the great
day of the fair. Exceptions to the rule are
always rare. The charming baby will sit for
inspection , nnd red or blue ribbon honors.
Some mothers will bo disappointed. It is
always so. Bo happy still , for your baby is
the best looking any way. Gross Injustice
will bo done.
There is a friendly rivalry for famed
honors between the state and United States
industrial schools. In some tilings Tin : Bun
representative clings to the opinion tnat the
thirty-eighth part is greater than the whole.
AN' INTIiltllSTINO TEST CASE.
The state capltol is feeling the effects of
the fair , and its corridors are crowded with
sight seers. Business Is going on just the
same , however , nnd Attorney General Lccso
has entered into what will prove an interest
ing test suit against the Missouri Pacific ,
Chicago , Burlington &Quinoy , and the Chi-
capo , St. Paul , Minneapolis & Omaha. The
information Is in the nature of quo warronto ,
and is for the purpose of testing the right of
the above named companies to do business In
the state of Nebraska. At present they are
foreign corporations , but have been taking
some proceedings to become incorporated un
der the laws of the state. The attorney gen
eral , however , docs not think they comply
sufficiently with the laws and desires to ob
tain the opinion of the supreme court. The
move is made to prevent the companies from
In future taking cases from the state to the
federal courts. It is not meeting with any
serious opposition from the roads interested ,
but is looked upon by them as a test case ,
and they ono and ull ( but notably the Mis
souri Pacific ) express themselves as willing
to conform to the law in every way as soon
as they know how to do so.

BESS AND RUBE.
An Illustration oT the Strong Attach
merits of Elephants and Dogs.
New York Sun : "Nothing is more
curious and interesting amoiif * the
many fetrango things to he noted in and
about a menagerie , " said the veteran
manager..Tamps AI. Nixon , "than the
devoted affection that elephants fre
quently demonstrate for dog * . The big
pachyderms form no other attachments
so strong and enduring , and the dogs
seem to reciprocate the fouling.
One of the host illustrations that I
over baw was the love between Bess and
llubo. Boss was a female elephant that
wo had in the Baviuun show in 1873-1 ,
and llubo was a setter dog. Bess was
never easy when Rube was out of her
sight. Horkeon little eyes would follow
his every movement if ho was frisking
about , and if ho disappeared she would
utter a little scream that would bring
him gallantly back to her in a hurry.
She never seemed so iiappy as when ho
was lying asleep on the hay in front of
her , with her big trunk waving over
him. One time Kubo got hick. She
took the best care of him thut she know
how in her elephantine way. She made
a bunch of hay about a foot thick and
largo enough for him to lie coiled upon
and in borne way made him understand
that ho should lie down on it. Then
she dettly worlccd her big trunk around
under the bunch of hay &o as to make it
tip , with him on it , as a woman takes
up a sick baby on a pillow , and there
she hold him and gently swung him to
and fro all night long , rocking and
lulling him to sleep. In the morning
ho was well again , and Bess appeared as
happy as a mother who had nursed her
child through a spell of illness.
"While wo were showing in Boston I
happened to mention to a group of re1
porters ono day the strong affection
Bos showed for llubo. They evi
dently sonsldored it a 'circus fairy
story,1 and woro.not delicate in saying
so. 'Very well , ' I said , 'if any of you
poubt it just got Rube away from Bess a
little distance and hurt him ( .lightly ,
enough to make him yelp. ' I hadn't
any idea that they'd do it. and 1 didn't
stop to think of whore Bess might bo ,
and whether she was chained or not.
The fact was that she was at the time
going through a'rOhorsal in tlio ring ,
loose , and Kubo was bitting upon a
folded carpet fcomo way oil. The
reportqrs lof ( mo nnd strolled
out into the 'cnnvnsd. Pretty , teen
they edged arouiJd to where Uubo was ,
and one of thom-gtivo his tail a twist ,
which the dog instantly remarked
loudly , Bess , at the sound of his yelp ,
wheeled around in the ring , throw up
her trunk with a shrill scream of rage ,
and started for those reporters. They
How. There was no time for explana
tion , argument or dignified leisure. The
forty or llfty employes who wore stand
ing about ran too. Boss stopped at
Rube , and when she Baw that ho wasn't
seriously hurt , she calmed right down ,
walked back to the ring and went on
with tlio rehearsal.
"When wo were going to Lowell from
Boston , Rube , who had a sore foot , was
put in one of the baggage wagons and
sent on ahead. When they came to
start the elephants for the inarch Bess
missed her pot and broke out in open re
bellion. She stood and trumpeted for
him. H'lO.rtod , and tramped around in
excitement , and would uot bo driven.

The other elephants began to share her
excitement , nnd a man had to bo sent
on a swift horse after Rnbo. Tlio
wagon ho was on came back. The doors
were thrown open so that Bess could see
him. She wont up to him , touched him
gently all over with her trunk , blinked
nt him , made n succession of sounds tlmt
sounded like the blowing of steam from
the exhaust pipe of a boiler , and then
jogpcd along behind him contentedly
all the way , the door of the wagon being -
ing kept o'pen.

Many women find

Indispensable for washing dishes , windows , carpets , clean

properties are afraid to have their clothes washed with it.
Well , in'the past ten years the consumption of Pearlinehas
exceeded 150,000,000 packages , and no complaints , but
numerous letters praising it. Why , because PEARLINE
is absolutely harmless in its place , and one of the best
places to put it is in the wash tub. You can soak your
finest linens and laces in Pearline and water for a month
with perfect safety. That'sas much Pearline as they would
get if they were washed in it once a week for twenty years.
We could not afford to spend our time and money in telling
the public , through the newspapers , a single thing about
Pearline that would not stand the test ; and the sooner you
testjit , the sooner you'll ' know that PEARLINE will do
more than we claim for it. It is as pure and harmless as the
finest imported castile soap. It's success has brought out
many dangerous imitations. Beware of them. JAMES PYLE ,
