gentleman went to the police station to get
his boy nj of trouble. The boy is becom-

when brought out of Jail shocked the old

Monday, September q, will be inaugur-
ated the second annual Corn Palace festi-
val at Sioux City, which will continue for
two weeks, closing Saturday, October 6.
To those who viewed the Palace of 1887
and were delighted with its beauties and
grandeur, q far more imposing exposition
can be guaranteed this year, for the dou-
BILE reasonth that its projectors and builders,
having the benefit of experience, know
better how to build with effectiveness; and
also the further fact that more Of
Sioux City's enterprising people are taking
hold this year to make it q success, it be-
ing the proud ambition of all of her citi-
zens to make it an unexcelled exposition.
At present nearly 300 people are employed
i'll its construction, the majority of them
being ladies' OH interior decoration. and
each day makes q wonderful transtOrma-
tion at the adeptness of their hands, which
they alone know how to use for TINT prr-
pose. To those who have never had the
fortune of viewing u Corn Palace. we can
only say that at a sight thereof they will
certainly have to Worship the genius dis
played in it's building.
The officers of the association are maxi
ing up n list for each day of the festival,
which will be announced later when com
plete programme will be decided upon.
One of the attractions of the first week
will be the opening of the Peavey Grand
opera house on the evening of the oath by
the Conreid Opera company, which will
hold down the boards for one week. In
vitations by the thousand have been issued
to attend the entertainment the opening
night. and it is safe to say that the full
capacity of the house will be tested on that
occasion. Bills are also being prepared
for the second week of the grand opening.
1.-The World" will go on the first two
nights, Matte Vickers the next two, aud
Marie Prescott the balance of the second
week.
One of the numerous attractions during
the season of carnival will be the sched-,
uled ball games of the western association.
The games will be played but a short dis
lance from the business portion of the
city, to which street cars will run every
few minutes.
The second week of the fair will be
military week." to which Gov. Larrabee
has accepted n formal invitation to be
present. a similar invitation has also
been extended to Gov. Church. of Dakota.
Workinen are now busy erecting illumi-
mating arches across the principal streets
of the city. which will be brilliantly light
ed every evening.
Business men are vieing with each other
to see who can produce the most beautiful
design in the way of decoration, and this
strife in this direction can but result in the
same being more beautiful than ever.
S%tandpipes within the building and fire.
men and fire hose without. insure the
safety of the visitors.
A chorus of over 100 voices is now being
trained for the purpose of giving a concert
i'll the Palace one evening during the festi-
val.
Arrangements are daily being made in all
parts of the city for the accommodation of
all the guests who NAV attend.
All the railroads have made a reduction
in rates for the occasion.
