Chris Simon, living near Burkhardt,

The Fair for the Benefit of tn

The Fair for the Benefit of the
Normaendenes Singing Society.
The fair for the benefit of the Nor
maendenes Singing society opened at
Normanna hall last evening and will
continue until next Monday night. when
it will close with ball. The hall is
beautifully decorated. and scattered
about are the fancy booths
presided over by Scandals fair
daughters who seductively entice away
the contents of your DOcketbOOk in ex-
change for articles of their handiwOrk,
with the most bewitching smiles thrown
in without measure. Last evening the
programme consisted of music by the
Normanna band, an address by j. L.
Hort, singing by the NOrmaendenes
Sangforening, violin solo by w. Lamp,
and other exercises. Tonight, besides
the musical programme, there will be
an address by Rev. Kristofer JanSon.
On Tuesday night Rev. John Tern
stedt will speak, followed on Wednes-
day night by J.W. Arctander. on Thnrs-
day night by DR.. Ames, and on Sun
day night by Gerhard Gjertsen, with
new musical programme and other
exercises on each evening. A feature
of the entertainment will be ladies
dressed in various national costumes,
and the famous ''NISSe Kvartet" from
Dovretjeld, who will render some Of
their songs and appear in grotesque
dances. The principal object of the
fair is to raise money for the Scandina-
Wan musical festival to be held in this
city in 1891, which is no small under
taking. and it to to be hoped that it will
be patronized not only by the Scandi-,
navians, but by other nati0nalities as

WANTS TO BE SPEAKER,
And So Is Studying ElOcutioI
That He May Speak.

A well-known joker around town
claims to have recently interviewed
newly elected congressman about to
enter upon his first term, as to an al
legged rumor that he is a candidate for
speaker of the house. The joker says
that he asked the congressman about
the matter, whereupOn the latter said:
f.Well, really, my boy, I haven't given
the matter much thought. My friend
Col. Tim Byrnes was the first man to sug-
gest the project to me, and he seemed so
enthusiastic about it that / was led to
think that it might be feasible, although
| told him l did not consider myself
much of a speaker, and 1 was afraid
that | wouldn't he able to fill the place
with credit. Tim assured me, however,
that there probably wouldn't be much
speaking TO do in the next house; that
it would be largely business session,
and that by the time the regular speak
ing term came on, just before the next
presidential election, l would be all
right. You see. they don't have much
use for a speaker in the house until
they are getting ready for campaign.
Besides, he was kind enough to say he
and Col. Charles Wilkinson would give
me private instruction this winter.

WHIPS AND TIPS,
Gossip About Horses, HOrsemen
and Their DOinPs.

Over $4,000 will be given in prizes at
the American horse show, which will be
held in Chicago Oct. 50 to Nov. 9. The
classes presented include all kinds and
breeds, from the highest type of
thoroughbred and trotter to the pom
derous ClydeSdale and diminutive Shet-
land. The entries to the trOtting stall
lion herd class and American trotting
stallion class have already closed, while
the others must be made on or before
Wednesday, Oct. Is. There is no doubt
that shows of this kind supply strong
stimulus to careful breeding. as the pre-
miumS are highly priced by the success
full owners. That this should be so is
perfectly natural,aS it is chiefly through
public exhibitions that breeders who
have not gained wide reputation for
their establishments are able to place
their stock in their true light before the
public. and in doing so secure the adj
vantageS of remuneratiye market.
Now that horses will be stabbed at
night. or should be, the most perfect
cleanliness should be observed. The
floors. if of wood. should be frequently
drenched with water. and then SpTinkled
with Underground gypsum (plasier), by
which the strong, pungent Odor common
to stables will be neutraliZed and alb
sOrbed. The strong odOr of ammonia,
which often pains the eyes and nOstrils
OF a man, is exceedingly injurious to
horses. 1t rots leather and corrodeS
yarniSh. and what must be its effect on
the eyes and lungs OF the horses con-
fined in it during whole nights? Foul
air promotes CHAMBERS. farcy. blindness,
influenza (epizOotic), pneumonia, heaves,
all common diseases of horses; and the
acrid manure in which horses are COM
PEELED to stand cause, not only this in
furious Vap0r, but rOtS the hoofs and
irritateS the skin.
The queen of running ringers has
been campaigning in the mountain
towns this season, and raked off consid-
cradle money for her owners. Her
name is Cayuse Molly, alias Gray Molly
and Mormon Ann. She is seven years
old and is credited with three-eighths
of a mile in 81 seconds. At Glenwood
Springs she beat Kitty Ward in race
and won $1,000 by the performance.
She Is now in pasture at Salt Lake City,
and will probably go over to the coast
next spring.-Denyer Field and Farm.
During the recent Louisville meeting
176 horses started in the various races
run during the eight days, and they
won total of 1900. The largest win
ners were: Heron, $3.50; Outbound,
8, go; Kitty Cheatham, sl,575; Avon
dale. g, 2O0; Brandolette, $500; Barney
Stone Jr., SS25: Long Dance, 800, and
Nevada, S575. None of the others won
over 500.
1t is reported at Louisville, KY, that
Sam Bryant. the welI-knOwn turfman,
will sell Come-to-Taw at the approach
ing PreaknesS stable sale and retire
from the track. The reason assigned is
that Bryant has a stubborn sore on one
of his toes which has grown worse and
threatens to incapaeitate him for busi-
ness.

EXPECTED TO RESIGN.

1t was announced yesterday that DR..
William E. Tryon Is expected" to re-
sign the position of police surgeon at
this mornings meeting of the police
commission. The announcement, too,
was made in curiously worded article
IN a morning paper which is calculated
to leave the reader In the dark as to ex'
actly what the reasons are which lead
to the resignation, further than that
some one is evidently endeayoring to
prepare the public mind for another
of those soups" which have been
sprung periodically during the present
administration. The Catholic and anti
Catholic bitterness in the police force is
limited at as the cause, together with
the DOCTORS failure to get along AMIGA
ably with the powers that be. There
were half-dozen theories entertained
by those familiar with police affairs,
none of which are at present worthy OF
much attertion or consideration. until
what is announced as expected actually
occurs, or. in other words, until DR..
Tryon hands IN his resignation.
