At the same time and iluce, the Jowa Highway commission will iijia Its tlilid annual school of instruction for road officers. The subject of the betterment of our MKhwnys.. Increases In importance with every year. If the actual loss suffered by the people of this state-from bad roads could hi measured and stated, the amount would be startling In Its magnitude. The state has Attempted, through its highway uiiinlnskm, to provide Instruction In the sdience of road making, and It is very de sirable thnt the township and county officers under whose supervision the taxes levied for road purposes are expended should receive the benefit of the knowledge collected by ,the commission. 1 therofore earnestly a.ik the county and township officers, Insofar as they possibly eon, to appoint and send delegates to the meeting at Council Bluffs, assuring them that there Is no one thing that they can do for the welfare of their countlea arid townships that mill return richer rewards than a few- days spent In promoting the cause of good roads.

Today will be ctilldren'a day and the management will see to It that the little folks have the time of their lives. Tuesday and Wednesday have been des ignated as good roads days. Thursday will be Omaha and South Omaha day and Mg delegations from both cities are ex pected. The Commercial club Of Omaha Is eceheduled to attend in a body. Fri day will be old settler:' day and It also will be newspaper men'a day, as the Western Iowa Editorial association will meet here that day. Saturday, which will bring the carnival to a close, It Is expected will be everybody's day. The big show In the carnival grounds will be Esplno's Stadium, and here the management has centered a large num ber of attractions, each of which will be worth, It Is said, the price of admis sion. Among the stadium attractions are: Eugene Trio, the perfect gymnasts, on triple bars; the marvelous Pransmathes and Lewis In their death-defying shoolii.g act; Slwel and Mehtamxuarf In a laughter-compelling comedy sketch; the elec trical Smiths In an electrical musical act. Introducing banjos, mandolins, guitars, plcdolos, cornets, sleigh bells, Scotch trumpets and other novelty In struments, Including the smallest banjo In the world, and tableau of "Goddess of liberty," also Introducing flags and crowned heads of all nations; Ruth Gray, "the woman wonderful" she divines your thoughts; Bingham and Sable in a wonderful musical ; act; Ed Maxell, the Juggling demon of the tight rope; "Marie Wilson, the beautiful singer and dancer. Other Attractions). Other attractions on the grounds will be the Penny Arcade, the Electric Photo gallery. , The trip to the Moon, and this once taken will never be forgotten, at least so Secretary Wright says, and he ought to know as he has made the trip Just to find out. There will be'- the big merry-go-rbund with Its btzzare painted horses, camels and other animals too numerous to mention. There will ' be a booth where the maiden can learn the color of the eyes and the hair of her future husband, etc., etc. There will be the big Turkish theatre direct from Rlverview park, Chicago, with Its dancing girls and congress of oriental beauties, some of whom have come direct from the east for this carnival. There will be the big Ferris wheel on which a person anxious to rise In this world can ascend up so far. but no farther. There will bo several moving pic ture allows and those who desire to pass the time by tripping the light fantastic toe, as they used to say In the days gone by, can dance until they grow tired and their pocketbooks give out. . Of course there are other shows but th'ey are too numerous to mention and will have to be seen to be appreciated. "Come early and stay 'late" Is1 the' adv1?e of Secretary Wright, Who will bo on the grounds each afternoon and evening and will " act . as bureau of Information. Any person not acquainted with Secretary Wright, can easily distinguish him by picking out the' handsomest man In the crowd. County Treasurer J. W. Mitchell will be at the gate to take tickets both afternoon, and evening today, and will be assisted by John McMahon, Henry Cutler and ,J.- G. Wadsworth. It will be useless, to attempt to pass these Argus eyed Sentinels without a ticket. Rural Carriers Oreranlslngr. The rural mall carriers of Pottawatta mie county will meet In . the federal building this morning at 10 o'clock for the purpose of organizing an association, which will be a branch of the state as sociation.

HEALTH BOARDS DISCUSS PLANS Howard Clarke "aesed aa a Candl date for Cona-resstnaa la Opposi tion tm John A.'t. Hall la Seventh District. (From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES, Sept. l-(Speclal.)-Flfty thousand Iowa people have een told dur ing the last summef how to avoid tuber culosis by Ihtx lecturer of the Iowa So ciety for , the . Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis. ' A trifle over bne year has elapsed since this society started out A. E. Kepford as a lecturer to tour the state and by public 'lectures to spread the In formation of means and methods of fight ing tuberculosis. ' Some of the territory traversed a year ago has been' reached now a second , time and persons afflicted ars reporting excellent progress In fighting the disease by following the directions as to the open air treatment. One of the most Interesting and Important facts disclosed by the labors of Mr. Kep ford Is that tuberculosis In Iowa prevails most In the northern part of the state, In the dairy district, disclosing the fact be yond dispute that the disease Is largely contracted from the bovine- tuberculosis In milk. The society, while attempting to spread the Information as to the proper treatment of the disease by the open air method, has been endeavoring to acquire for Itself alt the information possible on the ' subject. The ' northern' part of the state Is way ahead of the southern part In dairy Industry. It Is also way ahead of the southern part of the state in num ber of cases of tuberculosis. The disclosing of this fact will result In the society going before the next legis lature and asking It to enact the moat stringent laws possible for the purpose of stamping out tuberculosis In cattle. It will be necessary to conduct teats on the most extensive scale and to quarantine and kill the cattle Infected with tuberculosis. The most hopeful discovery made by the society Is that those persons who are fol lowing closely the open air treatment and who began such treatment on the advice given by the society's agent In his public lectures are for the most part recovering. Arrange for State Meet. The State Board of Health has arranged for a meeting of the local boards of health from over the state and the mayors of the different cities to meet in Des Moines with the State Board of Health on Novem ber 12 and 13, at which time It la proposed to hold a school of Instruction on the new rules Issued by the board, and It Is also proposed to have addresses on sanitation by the leading men of the country. It is expected that Dr. Melyin of th& ureau of animal industry of the Department of Agriculture . at Washington as one of the speakers on that occasion will; take up extensively the subject of local Inspection of meat and dallies. Colonel Francis, who Is recognized as an authority, will speak on sewerage, and Prof. ' Kinney of Des Moines, who Is chemist to the board, will talk on water purification. Governor Cum ulns. will deliver an .address of., welcome, and will talk on general matters of health. .One of the things that the state Beard of. Health proposes to do, or hopes to do, Is to stop spitting on ' street cars and railway trains and in other public places, and to better the sanitary conditions on trains and street cars generally. One of the new rules promulgated by the board Is for that purpose. The board Is con vlnced that a great deal of disease In these latter days of much travel is spread about the country by tle unsanitary con ditions of trains and street cars, which, have been allowed to go pretty much un regulated thus far. .-, Howard Clarke S as vested. In the hope of compromising the warring factions the name of Howard Clarke of Des Moines is being mentioned for the po sition of congressman from the Seventh district. It Is being argued that unless some compromise Is effected Captain J. A. T. Hull will . be re-elected to congress easily.. Prouty, Dowell and Coffin remain at outs, with every Indication that If one Is a candidate all will be, which gives no hope of the defeat of Hull. Howard Clarke has recently formed a law part nership with Attorney General Eyera and has thus far frowned down all suggestions of himself as a candidate ror any political position. It Is about conceded that to de feat Hull the successful candidate must get the most votes at the primary both In Polk county and the outside, aa there will be no chance to defeat him In the con vention, for Hull will probably get more than 35 per cent and there will be no con vention. - -. Political Talk Starts. Senator Hopkins of Guthrie county Is moro than likely to be a strong candidate for the position of state auditor,' and If A. B. Funk Is not a candidate for gov ernor it Is more than likely, at least quite probable, that Hon. Henry Saberson, at one time a representative In the legislature from Buena Vista county, will also be a candidate for the place. Senator Hopkins Is In no sense a candi date at this time arid neither is Mr. Sober son. Yet If things shape themselves prop- erly ar.d there Is a decided demand among j pther ciasslflcations. In the first classlflca lils friends, Senator Hopkins will, It is j tln the nge1 bull class, Whitehall Mar believed, bo willing to be a candidate for ' shall. sired by Whitehall Sultan, took first the position. ' If Senator Vnmk Is a can didate for governor, Mr. Saberson will not be a candidate. Both men como from the same congressional district and It would hardly be good polltlca for both' to enter the field for a state office, and the two men" are particular friends. If, however, Mr. Funk Is not a candidate. Mr. Saber lends ere likely to stron-ly urge dldocy. ' ron's frl his can Mr. Ols O. Roe, head of the lnturane? department In the auditor's, office ar.d at one time deputy auditor, Is quite likely als j to be a candidate and all three men are strong, cspable men. There are no political contingencies standing in the wsy of Mr. j Roe's candidacy and n- business reasons 1 and many of his friends are confident he will be a candidate. He has had actual experience In every department of Cio j auditor's office and in point of experience i has the advantage of all others In a de partment that has come to require a great deal ot technical knowledge and Informa tion. Veteraa Mar I.oee Aran. Luther M. Randies of Des Moines, la , a Janitor In the historical department, and an old soldier, may have to suffer the ampu tation of an arm as a result of an Injury while serving as aid and messenger to General Logan. Mr. Randies waa In the regiment commanded by Colonel . D. J. Palmer. He has hundreds of acquaintances over . the state among the old soldiers.

Randies made the attempt when a rebel soldier 'struck, at him with his gun but the force o( the blaWf fell uon his a urn and for the time he was uninjured. A unton soldier bayonetted the rebel on the spot. ' That arm has troubled Randies but tttle till recently.-. He has consulted special ists whd think that because of Injury to the bone the-arm may have to be ampu tated, though an effort Is being made to save It. "'.'; Shorthora Competition. Iowa Shorthorn breeders reveled In the shorthorn exhibit at the state fair this year. In many ways It was a' contest be tween the descendants of Whitehall Sultan and Choice Goods. . Tho Whitehall Sul'.an stock was owned chjefly by F. W. Harding of Waukesha, Wis. At Kansaa City some time since, there was a public auction of shorthorns and among the bidders was C. F. Mitchell of Farragut, la. ' There was one shorthorn bull calf that everybody except Mitchell agreed was the poorest calf In the lot Mitchell picked him out as a winner. All the bidders passed tho. calf by and Mitchell bought It cheap. At;the Iowa Stata fair this year it took second ribbon In competi tion with Anoka Sultan, sired by Whitehall Sultan and owned by ' F.' W. Harding of Waukesha, Wis. Mitchell s calf Is Gondo mar, sired by Choice Goods. The contest between the two animnts, which were en tered In the senior yearling class, was so close that three extra Judxea had to be railed in to decide the- matter. ' ' Descendants of Whitehall Marshall and Choice' Good' were In close competition In and Goad Choice, stred by Choice Gaols, took second. In the class of over two years old and under three, Avondile, sired by Wh'tehol) Sulten took first and ho descendant of Choice' Goods Wss entered In competition.

STI LUNGS IS NOT TO GO Ramor thnt lie Mas Displeased Presldeat Is Pronounced I ntrue, tlie OYSTER BAT, Sept. S. Recent published rumors that Public Printer Bttlllngs had displeased the president and was to be sjpplantcd were the occasion today for the leauanee of a statement complimentary to Mr. Btilllngs by Secretary I.oeb. "The president has not the faintest Idea of dis placing Mr. Bulling." said Secretary Loeb. "It follows as a matter of course that in bringing order out of the utt r chaos that hss existed In the government, printing office, a certain amount of ill feeling would be aroused on the part of the disgruntled employes. The president feels that Mr. Btilllngs ha discharged bis duties . with oourage. efficiency and honesty and that he Women Last Year The Curtis Publishing Philadelphia has now put the, office on a thoroughly businesslike and economical basis.

' RUSSIAN ELECTIONS QUIET Little Interest Is Being: Taken In Selection of (he Third Duma. ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. 2.-Prellm!nary elections for the third Russian Duma, which meets November 4, are now In full progress, the voters being engaged in the several steps leading up to the election of provincial electoral colleges, which will meet September t'4 to choose parliamentary representatives. Although the final step In the elections is only a fortnight away, public Interest Is far less than In the two previous campaigns. This is due In part to the natural decline of Interest In the third ' meeting of the new Institute, but more largely to the changes In the electoral law affecting the hitherto dominant posi tion of the advanced liberal and radical parties, which have played the principal role, and embraced the most prominent leaders In the political struggle. Although there pertles have rejected the proposal to toycott, tho elections, their Interest In the selection of a body -which they do not hope to control naturally has suffered. The third Duma, however. Is looked upon hero as settling the fate of Russia's ex periment In parliamentary government. Al though definitely committed ' to the idea of representative Institutions, the emperor was grieved and disappointed by the ro sults of the previous elections, neither of which produced a body capable of working In harmony with, his choKen advisers, and shojid the changes In tho election law Btlll fail to bring forth a more satisfactory Institution, the convocation of a fourth Duma d.irlng the present crisis would be problematical. T'ndcr the new law, the Intent of which Is to eliminate so far as possible the revo lutionists and lenorant elements which brought about the downfall of the first and AW of the suffering and danger in atoro for her, robs the expectant mother of all pleasant anticipations of the coming event, and casts over her shadow of gloom which cannot be shaken off.
