( Special Telegram. ) The most gangulno expectations of the ( air management imvo been much in or i ! tlmn realized In today's demonstration. On all avenues loading to thu city the stream of people formed continuous processions - cessions for a day mid a half. Onn farmer aald that over 1,500 people passed his farm yesterday afternoon. There were more than 15,000 people on the Mrectn of North 1'lntto thla morning to watch the passing of HutTalo mil's big pa rade. It wus magnificent and as Colonel Cody paused the crowd there wan a con tinuous ovation from the people. Immediately after this parade came the civic parade to the fair grounds for the purpose of opening the fair. The management - mont of the parade made a bungling mistake and left the Midway band of Kearney , the official band of the fair , behind awaiting the orders of the marshal of the day which orders never came and thof did no : march. The marshal formed the parade a block from the center of town and marched It straight from the elty so that many of the masses of the people walling did not see It. This was the cau.io of the leaving behind of the Kearney band , as It was itatloi'ud down where the people were. With this slight confusion everything passed off smoothly. The parade was headed by the Lexington Lady Cadets and the Gordon Silver Cornet band of North 1'latte. The parade contained Governor Holcomb , the officials of the State Hoard of Agricul ture and the nfUdals of the Irrigation Fair association. When the parade reached the grounds It was found that Cody's show had taken the crowd and thu exercises were postponed until after the show. After the show the formal opening took placo. President I'ark Introduced A. O. Wolfcn- bargor , who In a short but excellent ad dress spoke of the honors Nebraska had jilrcody attained In the political field and declared that It now had the honor of hav ing ' rirst Irrigation fair over held on the r.irilncnt.

North I'latte never In UH history saw so many people. Although the nights are a llttlo chilly for tenting , better fair weather could not' be nuked for. The Midway band of Kearney , the olllclal ha ml of the fair , arrived yesterday , and In tlm afternoon rendered a very flue concert to a large assemblage of peo- plu In front of the Union Pacific depot. Iluffnlo Illll arrived yesterday , and the Ktreets of North I'latto are jammed with a jn.iKs of tmrglng humanity waiting for the cqlnnel'B monster parade to appear.

The fair exhibits In ill departments were In place this morn- Ing. It can be truly said that the associa tion has not neglected this part of Its show to put all of Its efforts Into the speed ring , which Is too often the case In many of our lo-called fairs. All of the departments are O.-at. clam. FUUITS AND VKGETAULKS. The agricultural and horticultural hall presents an exhibit of which any community In tlio crtinlry may be proud. Perhaps the greatest surprise that greets the visitor la the horticultural exhibit In charge of W. W. Hugo , superintendent. This display Is made up entirely of Lincoln county fruit , from the farms of II. Utlen. Charles Tolllion and William Roberts. There are very fine displays of numerous varieties of applet , mid a very creditable display of grapes , plums and peaches. In the agricultural de partment excellent displays arc In from Lincoln. Uawson , DulTalo , Keith , Frontier. Cheyenne and Scotia Illuff counties. Lincoln county has the entire north end and east wing of the building. Its exhibit Is divided Into four departments , that of the Paxton and Sutherland canal , the North I'latte canal , the IJIrdwood canal , and the upland exhibit. All kinds of Irrigated products from these canals are tastily arranged. The prqd- ucts froir the uplands , which depended en tirely on the heavens for Its moisture , com pares very favorably with tho.u from the Irrigation districts. The early Irish pota toes shown by George Hughes cannot bo nxccllcd. Wiley Mathews from the baud hilt country has Immense watermelons. The Illrdwood canal has a China squash weigh ing 110 pounds. However , Scotts Hluft county Dhows a similar squash weighing 135 pounds. Perhaps the neatest , best arranged anil finest county exhibit Is the one from Dawson county This Is the same display which that county had on exhibition at thu state fair at Omaha , which attracted so much at tention , and \vhlch caused a great deal or comment because It did not receive recogni tion at the hands of the judges at that fair. Their small grain certainly excels any that Is In tha building. They have beets weighing twenty-six pounds ; there Is also un excellent display of sweat potatoes and peanuts. This exhibit occupies fifty feet of space on thu west sideof tha building In thu south wing. It has an excellent " show" for first premium. For an exhibition of scientific farming the display from the State Industrial school at Kearney can hardly bo excelled. The exhibits occupies forty feet of space just across the way from that of Uawson county. Thuy Imvo fifty varieties of garden seeds In half-bushel-lots , and eight varieties of green onions. There Is corn raised on land fifty feet above the I'latto bottoms , which can not bo beat on Irrigated lands. Their ex cellent celery , egg plants , timothy , millet and grasses may also bo seen.

Leonard , or Frcnchy , as he Is generally known. Is one of the moat desperate crim inals In the west. The local police have not seen Frcnchy In Lincoln for about two years , but Iluehlcr says ho was In the city last Juno and had $700 In cash In his jeans.

He arrived at the Fcdawa house about 10 o'clock yesterday morning. It appears that Jay Fedawa met Frenchy Sunday afternoon accidentally and took him out home on nib return with the four bottles of beer. The police believe that Jay told Frenchy tha : Uuchlcr was out there with the former's wife ami that Frenchy went out fully In tending to kill the disturber lf his domes tic felicity Shortly after Buohler's ante-mortcm state ment had been taken by The Boo represen tative last night City Detectlvo Langdon Interviewed the wounded thief , asking If ho didn't think " " "Denver Freuchy" had undertaken the Shelby bank robbery , nueh- ler declared that was the work of eastern "people , " too smooth for Frenchy , who never went near a town till the day ho meant to turn the "trick.

An adjourned ncs-ilon of the Omaha Pres bytery met yesterday afternoon In tin ? par lors of the First I'rcsbyterlan church of this city. Dr. A. O. Wllsou acted as moderator. Thirty ministers of the denomination wcro In attendance. The session toward Its later hours took on a humorous turn , which com pelled even the most sedate of the ministry * try present to" indulge In a good-n.aturcd laugh. "This Is quite unusual. ' I think the whole procoedlnfi Is out of order. " Hcv. S. M. Ware of the Second Presbyterian church matte this observation to the presbytery with somewhat of a reproving air. Then the presbytery nettled down to business again. It was that of dUposIng of the claims of M. nostrum , who had asked to b > received Into the Presbyterian Thcolosl- eal aetnlnary for preparation for the minis- tr ; ' . Vhen the moderator called Mr. Hostrom forward for the usual examination as to the grounds of his faith In Christianity , a young man , 29 years of age , stepped forward and readily answered the knotty theological questions propounded. He had not had -a college education , however , and Dr. Kerr called attention to this fact and stated that It behooved the presbytery to act advisedly In all such special cases which might arise. This precipitated a discussion and Mr. Hos- trom retired. A member of the presbytery started the difficulty by remarking that Mr. liostrom was reported to bo engaged tea a young Swedish woman. Aa It la ngalnst the rules of the seminary that young theo logical students shall enter a state of matri mony whllo preparing to preach the gospel ho thought the presbytery should have all the facts before It before acting. WAY OUT OV THK DIFFICULTY. Dr. Hnrslia at once arose and stated that It was true ho had been Informed that the young woman's father had volunteered to pay the couple's bills , Dr. Lower stated that ho understood that thu prospective fath er-in-law had only agreed to pay the bride's expenses. Dr. Wilson said that ho believed this matter should be settled by the pres bytery , to whlrh Dr. McCormlrk rejoined that It would settle Itself. He , as a member of the educational committee , would recom mend Mr. nostrom for acceptance. Dr. Harsha stated that ho believed that the young man had not fully made up his mind mid ho thought ho could yet bo persuaded to forego marriage for the present. The good natureil observations naturally started an audible smllo about the room. It was at this point that Dr. Ware called on his brother ministers to drop the sub ject. A vote was then taken and Mr. Uoa- troin was unanimously accepted for the seminary as a special student , the hopu being expressed that ho would prove a use ful worker among his own countrymen. Other business transacted by the presby tery before adjourning consisted in the ordi nation of Prof Mitchell of Ilellevuo college. The ordination prayer was delivered by Dr. Huraha and the charge by Dr. Kerr of tlollevuo college. Prof. Wilson took as tbo subject of his thesis "What It Is to He a Christian. " Dr. Kcrr In making his charge said that the minister Is to preach Christ , because Christ must bo the center of his life. Also , ho said , the minister must know Christ. Ho iMist also know men In all their various phases of life. QODSPE13D TO A NEW FIELD. The evening session of the presbytery , which was called to order at 7:30 : o'clock , was partially In the nature of a godspeed to Dr. Alexander D. Wilson , who will sail for India on November 14 as a medical mission ary In that country , to do hospital work. Ho will there Join a brother , who Is now laboring In the missionary field. Dr. Wilson himself read a paper upon the duties and the character of the medical missionary , together with a brief account of the work that has already been done by him In the evangelistic Held. Ho showed In the first place from the scriptures that the Redeemer had largely made use of the art of healing when hy was on earth , and that the power of curing diseases had also liee-i given to the apostles. The evident object In this had been to secure the atten tion of the people in order to teach tin- truths of God. Dr. Wilson maintained that the medical missionary must be of the highest proficiency In his profession and specially suited to perform evangelistic work. If he were n physician of the best attainment ] ho can bccomo almost a gcd In the opinion of the heathen amongst whom lie Is living , and In that manner can touch their hearts with the divine truths which It is his duty to Implant In their souls. At first his work must bo done largely In his own room upon the patients that arc brought to him , but as ho Inspires confidence his sphere Is enlarged to a public dlsptnsary , and then to a hos pital. The- speaker stated that the value of the medical missionary had been appreciated only within the last forty years. In that time ho showed that such a missionary had done more than any other to open the heathen world to Christianity and civiliza tion. As examples he Instanced Japan , forca , China and India. The response to the address wns made by llev. J. I ) . Kerr , who dwelt upon the re- Hponslblllty that rested upon the medical missionary. Hi" said that the gospel did not first make mention of preaching , hut of curing , and then he went on to show that the healing art had a great part In the evangelistic work In the days of Christ and In these of the apcatleo Immediately follow ing. He spoke especially of Luke , who had been a physician. In his opinion the medi cal missions were the key to many hearts and many homes that could not be otherwise reached. Speaking more directly to Dr. Wilson Ilov. Kerr stated that the medical missions were doing moro than any other branch of the mission work In breaking down the awful sjstem of caste In India. This reoulted from the fact that high and low wcro treated alike , and were gathered together In the dispensaries and hospitals by the reports that the cures spread aboutt Ho closed with IF I WI2HI3 A .1IA.V _ I would K to Calms-anil make my Holecllon of winter underwear now be- foru thu complete assortment IH broken He's Kot them at r ( ) c a.

MEDICAL MISSIONARIES FEW. Dr. C. 11. McAfeo of the'Hoard of Foreign Missions congratulated the presbytery upon Bending on1 a medical missionary. Ho said that they were few In. numbers and were very badly needed In tbe foreign fields. He stated that the country was being scoured for them , but that great difficulty wns being found In discovering physicians who were capable of performing evangelistic work. Upon n suggestion from Dr. McAfee n resolution was passed calling upon the churches In the presbytery to take special- notice In prajcr and otherwise of thu de parting missionary. K. A. Hell announced his withdrawal from the church of Dellcvue end In doing oo called retention of the presbytery of the need of work among the soldiers at Fort Crook. A committee composed of Hevs. D. It. Kerr. J. 1) . Kcrr and Dr. liarsha was appointed to look over the Held. J. IJ. Finley was allcued to dissolve hh relations with the church at Lyons , with permission to labor in the field outside the church. Dr. A. 0. Wllscn was appointed the moderator of the sesilon of the church at this place , as well ns-that at Divide Center. The request of the Valley church to sep arate from the church at Waterloo was granted , hut not without dUcu3.ilon. Many of tbe ministers were of the opinion that the churches could do n greater work by combining In obtaining a pastor. It ap pears , however , that neither church drains an afternoon service , and the Valley congre gation has taken a stand that If they must put up with ouch services they will leave the church. Pastor-r.t-Large Ilraden was appointed moderator of the session. Ilov. McCormlck of the First Presbyterian cl'iirch resigned ns chairman of the com- mtteo on education because he wns unfavor able to the scheme of allowing members of the higher classes at licllovuo to preach. A resolution was passed giving the sense- of the presbytery as fa.-orablo to the nomi nation of Dr. Harsha as the moderator of the synod , which convenes at York today and remains In session until Friday. An adjournment was taken subject to the call of the moderator during the session of the synod. The- members of the synod will leave the city for York this afternoon.
