trnctlons at Interesting , If not moro so , and
f
: the crowds just ns large , if not larger , than
In former years. In addliIon to all this the
weather is moro than favorable. The sun
shines brightly , but not warmly. The nlr Is
crisp nnd pleasant , nud nn frivolous broezi
disturbs the serenity of the thousands of vis
itors who are on tlio grounds.
Stnto fnlr week Is always nn epoch In the

n Kick from a liorso.
George Nolan , a 3-jroar-old boy , was Kicked
In tbo head by a horse yesterday afternoon
and his skull was fractured. The wound
upon the head was fully six inches in length
nnd the fjacturo of the skull extended nearly
tbrco Inches. That death did not result is n
miracle , as the Injuries were of a voiy dan
gerous nature , and two troplno operations
were necessary to save the child's life. It is
thought that ho will recover with proper
care nnd attention.
The injured child Is a son of Thomas No-
Inn , who lives near Bollovuo. Mr. Nolan ,
wife and two children , attended Iho labor
parade in Omaha , nnd on their way homo in
the afternoon , about 3 o'clock , stopped at an
Albright grocary stora to make a few pur
chases. Mr. Nolan aflghtcd from tbo car-
riairo , nnd while ho was In the store the boy
took tbo whip in his jbnnds , loaned ever the
dashboard and struck Aho horse n blow about
tbo foot. The animal kicked and the boy.
was Jorkcd to the grounrl under the horso's
hoofs. The horse liopt up his kicking and
struck the boy uoon tuo hold , with the terri
ble results stated. Bo was picked up nnd
carried into the store nnd a physician called ,
who dressed the chlld'si injuries und ho was
taken to bis father's homo near Bellovuo.

Is It Worth
the Chance ?
If you are sincere in encour
aging honest manufacturers in
giving you pure preparations
instead of worthless ones , at
fair instead of seemingly
cheap price , is it worth the
chance to purchase the dozen
and one acjufterated extracts
on the market' instead of Dr.
Price's De'lic'ious Flavoring
Extracts of-temon , Orange ,
Vanilla , etcjjf/hat impart the
natural flavor of the fruit , and
TV !
are endorsediior their purity ,
strength an j' ' conomy ?
A trial of Dr. Price's Delicious
Flavoring Extracts will prove
a great myment § towards
good eating , * ctive digestion
and happy liomes.

Wnr nit tlio Scalpers ,
War has boon declared by the Milwaukee
ngnlust the ticket brokers , the trouble grow
ing out of the rate nt which the brokers are
selling tickets to Chicago. Ever since
the $10 rate wont into effect
the Milwaukee puoplo know that
tickets were being sold for (0 and In order to
get tickets out of the bauds of brokers de
cided to purchase all the tickets they could
atlbatrato ana compel the railroad com
panies to redeem tboinat$10. thereby malting
n dollar on each transaction. A number
ot men were employed by the Milwaukee lo
cal oftlclals to p'urcba o nil the tickets
possible ut the fO rato. By pur
suing thu system or "spotting"
the Mllwnukoo has been nblo to ulmoU ex
haust the supply of tickets In brokers' hands
nnd has forced tbo brokers to demand n $13
rate with a rebate of W nt the Chicago end.
While this notion counteract * the
force of the Milwaukee's poMllon
somewhat , It doc ? not mean to rest until the
roads known to bo cutting the vale draw In
their horns mul nlay lair. And the position
taken by the Mllwnukoo Is worrying the
other roads In the deal very con
siderably , although nn alleged newspaper
on Saturday made it appear that the Mil
waukee pcoplo were getting the worst of it ,
In otber words , holding the sack. Tlio tick
ets on sale In holders' hands nro harvest ex
cursion tickets nnd some Kntguts Temnlar
tickets. Tboso tickets have boon used
ono way nnd nro coed until September ID
but the local ofllclals think that the light
mny bo carried beyond tUo tlmo originally
decided upon. Wbllo nil the Missouri river
roads nro in the pool , nil ot them , with the
execution of the Milwaukee , bnvo tickets
In brokers' Imnds nt tbo $9 mnrk ,
hoping thereby to increase business. Gen-
eial Passenger Agent Hoaftord In pursuing
the brokers is aiming at hlghor egmo nnd
hopes to show rlvnl roads that cutting rntds
by medium of scalpers is mighty poor busi
ness. _
