Monday and one on st. Louis Tuesday.

His Appearances Belied Him

few days since a seedy looking in
dividual presented minister's half
fare permit TO Agent Walker of the
Frisco, and wanted ticket. Bert look
ed it over suspiclously and discovering
the contract was unsigned on the back
threw the permit on the counter face
down and asked the man 10 sign 1t.
He complied, and 10 the agents sur
prise, signed the same name that ap-
peared on the face. As the man left
the ticket window Bert turned to his
companions and told just what he
thought Of a preacher who would loan
his permit to fake Snowman. Ten
minutes later the man was preaching
on the street to a larger audience than
the combined churches of the city had
last Sunday. These railroaders get
powerful "hy" but are not always "in
it" when it comes to judging preachers.

Wheat Market Lively

The wheat market war which has
been in progress in this city for a
couple of weeks is, in reality, rail-
road war to a great extent. The Os-
wego Seed and Grain Co. has always
confined its business to Frisco points
and shipped via that road exclusively.
Up to two weeks ago the NJ, X. & I.
was getting no grain business at this
point, but about that time Parsons
firm came down and engaged A. G..
Peck 10 buy for them. Close competi-
tion was at once aroused and has con-
tinued ever since. Whether the lossee
are made up by the railroad compan-
les or not is unknown, bat il is certain
that higher prices have been paid for
wheat on the streets of this city than
can be possibly realized on it in st.
Louis. The buyers are: for Oswego

Many of our older readers will recall
the name of the above we'll known
establishment that exhibits in our city
Aug. Goth with pleasure. With many
of them it brings vividly to mind the
first elephant they ever saw. There is
whole sermon in the career of this
show. 1t proves that when any con-
Germ becomes known as an honestly
conducted one and fulfills its promises
to the public, that II succeeds, and
the business tlourishes and becomes a
fixture TO be handed down from gener-
alton to generation. 1t proves, also,
the truth of the old proverb that
Honesty is the best policy" The
career of Lemen Bros. show from 1880
until the present has been one of con-
tinuous success. And the proprietors
deserve it. They have always given
the public the worth of their money.
In these days of humbug it is really
refreshing to able to speak in terms of
praise of an amusement enterprise.
This year the managers promise us
surprise in the shape of the largest
elephant on earth. II is Rajah, and
to-day stands two inches taller than
Jumbo. 1t is the largest creature that
breathes the breath of life.
