WHAT THE BOYS ARE DOING.
THE eENEsEo RACES.


The officers and directors of the Gene
SEQ Driving Park and Fair Association
made dilligent endeavor previous to the
announcement of their dates to secure
such a time as would not be in conflict
with any other meetings in that region.
Subsequent to the announcement # the
dates locally it was learned that Daven-
port would claim the same dates. This
resulted in conference in Chicago be
tween the directors of the Davenport and
Geneseo Associations and the conclusion
to change the dates for the Geneseo
meeting to Aug. 21st to oath, inclusive
a week earlier than at first announced.

The slowest railroad in the known
world is that running from Emporia to
Howard City. Cattle shipped by that
line die of old age before reaching their
destination. Drummers take in all
the towns along the line, and have
time TO pack their trunks and keep up
with the train. Cattle guards are put
on the bind end of the train to keep
cattle from running over it.
