FLOODING THE STATE
With State Fair Autographs
Sale of PRIVILEGES,

AS the time for holding the state fair
approaches the hustle and activity Of
preparation increases, and the officers
are putting forth their best efforts
to make the annual exposition as
successful as possible. The work
of distributing the advertising
matter has been begun and
by the end of the week the entire state
will be flooded with pretty Autographs
setting forth the numerous attractions
to be seer at Hamline. Sept. to 10.
The office of Secretary Cross presents
a busy scene each day, with the calls
for space and the business which goes
with an enterprise of this sort. Messrs.
Stevens, of Minneapolis, and Judsop, of
Pennington. have been added to the
working force of the Office, and faithful
Sam Partridge without whom the fair
would hardly be success, is busily at
work classifying the entries. During
last week representatives of several
large firms called at the Office for the
purpose of arranging for space to ex-
hlbit, and not few farmers and stock
men expressed their intention of CON-
ing to Hamline with large exhibits of
live stock.
Among the former was the local agent
of the White Sewing Machine COMPANY,
who stated that his people would be
here from Cleveland with their display
OF machines which took the first prize
at the Paris exposition. Col. j. II. Ste
VEINS. of Minneapolis, came to the Office
In company with man who represents
the Pillsbury interests, and the
latter said that the location of
the -four exhibit would have to
be changed so as to secure
more room aud that the pagoda, which
has always been a feature of this dis
play. would be moved to some larger
portion of the building.
Word has heen received that the Cen
fury Piano company, OF Minneapolis,
would make a more extensive display
than in any former year.
Supt. David E. Bailey will be at the
fair grounds Wednesday, Aug. "a, at l
O'Clock for the purpose of selling all the
privileges for the coming fair and states
that ali those who desire privileges of
any sort should make it point to be
present, as there is big demand for
space. Almost without exception the
state papers are booming the fair and
the prospects are exceedingly bright.

WILL DEFEND ITSELF.

Damages,
AS the American Casualty
Company Cancels the
Contract.
Little Andrew Wilson Is
Drowned While Bathing

A Drummer Arrested on q
Charge Of Insult on the
-# Street.

Comparatively few people, beyond
those III the railroad and legal frarer-
nifty, we're aware that all claims for
damages on the street railway company
were defended by the American Cas-
ualty and indemnity company. Suits
were brought against the street railway
company, but were defended by the in
demnity company, which IS Baltimore
corporation. This relation, however,
terminated yesterday, and hereafter the
Lowry company will carry and contest
Its. own damages. For given sum per
annum the indemnity company assumed
all liability for damage by the street
railway company, the amount, it is I'M
derstood. being in the neighbOrhood Of
$4,000. The time for which the contract
was made expired yesterday, and the
indemnity company declined to renew
the contract. For the past year it has
been heavy loser. There have been an
unusually large number of damage
suits against the railway company and
the amount paid in judgments and
costs has been largely in excess of the
cum paid by the railway company, for
indemnity. The statement is made that
the Indemnity company has paid out
about 100000 i'll round numbers during
the year, leaving about $50, 900 to be
charged to loss on its ledgers. That
period has been an unusually unfortu-,
nate one for the railway company. The
novelty of the electric system has cost
several lives and resulted tn manv ac-
cidents that Will not be repeated now
that the system has been thoroughly
established. Transfer disagreements
also cost several suits, and the collision
i n the interurban line resulted in the
payment of many claims. most of
which were settled out Of court.
The indemnity company lost money
principally because IL is new enter
prise, and there is no well-established
rate Of charge for the protection it af-
fords. There is an insufficiency of data
on which to base scale of rates, and
this will be the ease until there is the
same system of data as that on which
lie insurance is based.
Hereafter the railway company will
carry its own insurance, or, in other
words, will defend its own cases. 1t,
has established its legal department.
and NJ. ID. Mum will represent it in the
damage courts, with ii. j. Horn as
counsel, as hitherto. j. j. McCatferty
was the counsel of the indemnity COM
pany and has conducted all the damage,
suits in which the street railway com-i
pany figured as the defendant. =.

not only looks it, but gives dramatic
finish to the part. which is exceedingly
effective. The jealousy of Ben Boone
is aroused by Bascom's attention to Sue,
and on this the plot of blue Jeans"
hinges. Before the act closes, June. an
unframed girl, who has run away from
the pOorhouse, appears. and, in the per-
son of Miss Laura Burt. the part was
infused with spirit and freshness de-
cidedly charming. June's tricks con-
vulSed the audience with laughter, and
the curtain falls with her firing shot
gun at a squirrel. hitting Ben Boone
and killing a COW. The action Of the
second act is in Perry Bascom's orchard,
two years later. Bascom had gone
through a form of marriage with Sue
Endaly, but finding that she was ali &C
complished adventures and had been
previously married, her husband still
living, had quilted her. The eiucida-
ton of the plot from thence OH is very
thrilling. June has been educated at
Bascom's expense, and he is now laying
very pretty and original, with, of
course, the usual result. Sue Endaly
VOWS to be avenged and arouses the
passion of Ben Boone. A barbecue is
introduced in this act, and the old
village band, 1.-THE Rising Sun Roar
ers,' is seen in all its glory. The band
is one of the drollest things, and, to use
hackneyed phrase, can be better
imagined than described. There is also
quartette of singers, whose songs were
well received. There are three scenes
in the third act, three months later,
BascOm and June have been married.
Bascom, having failed to tell
june of his connection with Sue
Endaly, and being unable to
find her first husband, is being bounded
OH the eve of an election by some in
eliminating documents. There is some
clever comedy work in the opening of
the act. and the close is filled with as
exciting scene as can be depicted on.
any stage. Bascom is confronted in the
saw mill act by Sue, who threatens him.
His wife appears, and Sue lets out the
secret, and in the turmoil Ben Boone
is seen. BaScom and Boone fight, and
the latter attempts to kill the former by
placing him OIL the table of buzz saw.
June reScues her husband at the critical
point, and the curtain falls. The fourth
and last act cleveIly elucidates the
whole play. From whatever point of
view ''Blue jeans is looked at, the
play. in the hands of such capable
company. must be declared to be one of
the best placed before the people of this
city,
