Burlington Crop - Report Says Corn " Affected by Heat , The Burlington's crop report for the week ending last Saturday takes Into consideration the d if ease that has at tacked horses in Kansas and some por tions of Nebraska. Superintendent Young mentions Pbclps ciunty as the only local ity where It is prevalent to any alarming extent He says that In that county, ac cording to reports received at his office, 200 horses died during the two weeks pre ceding the issuance of the 'report. . Relative to crop conditions along the Burlington system the weekly report says the ground Is In fairly good condi tion generally, but there are localities where rain is needed. On account of the lack of rain in many places the sowing of fall wheat hus been discontinued. The prospects for a heavy corn crop, the repoort says are not so good as a few weeks ago ,the hot weather having retarded the growth of the ears and caused the kernels to dry too rapidly. The comparison of the condition follows: Tast Previous Divisions. Week. Week. Omaha i 95 S5 Lincoln 78 !0 Wymore 90 92 McCook 62 - 70 The estimates are upon 100 per cent being a perfect crop.

No More Free Drinks on the Union Pacific For years, out at 'Cheyenne, the Union Pacific has been furnishing free water to all who wanted to go to a tank car and drink. ' This water has been hauled In tank cars from Granite canon, eighteen miles west. The cars have been left standing on a siding near the depot and all people had to do In order to get tho pure spring water has been to go to the cars, turn the spigots and carry the water away In jugs, palls and casks. This has cost the Union Pacific several hundred dollars annually and the o(flcm-j see no reason why the practice of haul ing water and giving it away should be continued.

McShane. Jr., Sunday night. Mrs. Dreessen was hiding In some, shrubbery and Thomas, armed with a knife was prowling about the farm In search of her when the sheriff arrived. Deputy Sheriff W. A. Foster f.opompanled Sheriff McShane to the scene to see how an arrest la made. Com plaint charging Thomas with assault was filed in county court yesterday. He will be given a hearing Wednesday or Thurs day. - It seems that Thomas has caused .Mrs. Dreessen more or less trouble ever since the death of her husband, a year ago. Thomas had worked on the farm for several years. He decided that he was the logical successor of Mr. Dreessen as boss of the place and it appeared to him that marriage to Mrs. Dreessen would be about the proper caper. Site Enter Demurrer. When the matter of marriage was men tioned to Mrs. Dreessen she demurred. Thomas decided to bide his time, but It appears that he worked so hard trying to be an efficient blder that he didn't have much time- left for real labor. This grated on Mrs. Drees!en's nervea some what and Thomas couldn't seem to rea lize that the best way to make a hit with her would be to hoo two rows of potatoes where he had hoed only one before. He Was Diat'harged. Bye and bye Mrs. Dreessen tired of boarding and rooming Thomas and In formed him that on and after a certain date th farm would cease to be an eleemosynary institution. Gently, but firmly she told him he would have to evacuate his stronghold in the room, over the back kitchen. Ills work didn't suit her any more and he was discharged, Thomas left, but he has hung around the neighborhood ever since, occasionally getting word to Mi s. Dreessen ' that he still wanted to marry her. Paul Rossen, " a hand whose work suits Mrs. Dreessen, met Thomas at Bennington Sunday afternoon. He re sented some rsmaik of Thomas' and hit him on the nose as hafd as Mutt hits Jeff. Thomas didn't say anything then, but he got madder and madder until Sunday night he went to the farm and announced that It was his. Jle took after Mrs. Dreessen with a knife. She fled, screaming. The sheriff was telephoned for. - Illinoisans Take Up Cheap Nebraska Land S.g.

WORK STARTED ON THE BOOTHS Contractor l.ee MeGrerr Commenced Work Monday In Gettln the Ground and Ilooths In Good Shape. When the trumpets begin to blare on the midway of Ak-Sar-Ben this year, the visitors will find a higher class of shows and attractions than they have ever found there heretofore. It has been the aim of the committee to lift up the general tone of the line of shows to be permitted to do business on the grounds this year and "Dad" Weaver In lotting tho contracts has been careful to elimin ate those that were not considered ele vating. The result Is that there will tMs year be no montrosltles, no five-legged calves, no doubteheaded cows, no snake shows or human freaks. Instead there will be wild animal shows, dog and pony shows, high class vaudeville, aquatio divers, Indian shows, an Arabian theater, and many other classy attractions. Different Arrangement. The show grounds this year are to be laid out differently than ever before. On the vacant lot northwest of Eight eenth and Douglas streets, where many of the shows have always held forth, are to be many of the shows this year, but Instead of having a row of booths along the front of this tract facing Eighteenth and facing Douglas, the man agement has decided these two lines of booths are to be done away with and that the shows occupying the lot are to be allowed to front' flush on the curb ing. A group of bill posters went out in the state yesterday armed with great rollB of bills to post In the western towns and in other parts of the state to call the attention of the people of the state to Ak-Sar-Ben. The contractoa Iee McGreer, has begun work on . the building of the booths.
