The fair which will be held or
Friday and Saturday of this week il
interesting every body as it shouie

large attendance. The fence hnc

A electric storm, accompanied il
many places by high wind extended
over the eastern portion of the country
on last Saturday, played hob with the
wire and seriously retarded the trans
mission of Geographic news. The
western portion of the country expert
enced similar visitation on Sunday
night. Here as elsewhere the entire
heavens were illuminated.
The circus is coming. Those having
seen it at other places pronounce it
good one. Our exchanges also speak
well Of it. The management not only
tries to give a eseditable entertain
ment and provide for the comfort Of
all visitors but does all in it's power
to protect them from sneak thieves
and confidence men who always fol-

This same show was here two years

then no one will be dissatisfied with
it.

obligations to him for assistance in
winning the game" Whether or not
in making this assertion the Times
means to say that the umpire should
have been partial to the Benson nine

statement however is true. The Ben
son nine like others who have won
games umpired by Mr.. Gaffney are
under no obligations to him. Like
others t,h,ev got credit for the playing
done, nothing more or less. That Mr..
Gaffney is an excellent umpire as
claimed by the Metropolitaps 10 true
and the statement can be substantial
ed by the Willmar, Graceville, or any
other of the many mines which have
played under his rulings. We believe
the Benson boys themselves are sat-
