FAIR GROUND MEETING.

Pursuant to Secretary Johnson's
call about so stockholders Of the
Caledonia Fair Ground Co. met at
the Board of Trade rooms Saturday
afternoon to reconsider the action
concerning free tickets adopted at
the last meeting The bylaws
adopted at the last meeting were
read. AS one of the bylaws stated
that they could only be changed at
an annual meeting, E. l.. Hovey
moved an adjournment. The motion
was lost by vote of 26 to II. For
the next hour the legality of the by
laws, and of the action of the last
meeting, was discussed by Chief
Justice Ross, Henry c. Ide, J. G.
Hovey, Ora Bishop and Others. Fl
nally E. 7. Ide asked if the bylaws
were adopted by two-thirds vote
of the stockholders, as provided by
the constitution. 1t having been
proved that they were not so adopt
ed, resolution was introduced by
Lawyer Ide TO reconsider the by
laws. This was carried and the
field left clear for any new motion.
On motion OF E. T. Ide it was voted
that at least one week before the
fair the treasurer should deliver to
each stockholder five coupon tickets,
said tickets to contain the name of
the stockholder and have coupons
admitting to both forenoon and af-
ternoon exhibitions, also good to
admit team. This vote was unan-
mously adopted. On motion of Ora
Bishop it was voted to issue no COM
plimentary tickets. The meeting
then adjourned, and everybody went
home satisfied with the proceedings.

Pension Payments Suspended.

The Pension Bureau has notified many
pensioners throughout the country who
are drawing pensions under the act of
June 81, 1890. known as the dependent
pension act, that payment of their PEN
sions will be suspended for sixty days,
during which time they are required to
show cause why they should continue to
draw pensions. The testimony necessa-
ry to prevent their being dropped from
the rolls is the certificate of a reputable
physician, attested by two witnesses, to
the effect that the pensioner is precluded
from active labor owing to injuries or
disability not the result of his own Wis
cious habits.
In case no attention is paid to the de-
partment notification within sixty days
the pensioner will be dropped from the
rolls. On the other hand, should the
necessary certificate, properly drawn up
and signed, be forwarded to the pension
bureau the pensioner will be requested
to appear before the local board of med
ical examiners for examination as to his
condition
The board Of review is now going over
all of the cases of June 81. 1890, probably
100000 in number, and selecting those
cases which show in the record that the
pensioner may not be incapacitated for
manual labor. The department holds
that a man who can work should not
draw pension for total disability. 1t is
estimated at the pension office. although
the work has but recently been begun,
that something over 1000 suspensions
have already been made.

For Post Office EXPERTS,

The writer has lately seen curious
collection of envelopes showing the des-
perate but futile efforts made by various
persons to address them properly. "Pinte
rookie, M. d." is pretty fair stager for
Point of Rocks, Md, but it takes an ex-
pert to determine that st Trailer, Illo-
nay" is meant. for Centralia, Ill. There
is not much poetry about "Yummar tai
ler," considering that the writer meant
Unatilla,,, which is in the State of Oregon.
But the sentimental goes all to smash
when we realize that young lady of pre-
surnably scholarly attachments wrote
Sarah Garder'' for Cerro Gordo, an Hi.
nois town. a foreigner of the Bulgarian
persuasion made a strenuous effort to
write 'St. Louis" He diden't get it ex-
actly, bu5 when he wrote "St. Sok1oszen
it was not because he didn't try hard
enough. People are sometimes apt to
confuse the idea and the name. One cor
respondent who had this failing wrote
Rising Sun, Colo, y for Sunshine, Colo"
Another writer addressed Il letter to
Rat Trap. Miss )" when he should have
written Fox Trap, Miss"

THE COWBOY RACE.
Won by John Berry in Thirteen Days
and Sixteen Hours.

Won by John Berry in Thirteen Days
and Sixteen Hours.
The cowboy race which began at
Chadron. Neb., at $50 p. III. Tuesday,
June ID, was ended at $50 a. III. June
81 by the arrival at Buffalo BLISS
camp on Sixty-third street, Chicago,
of John Berry, winning the race Of 1 ,O40
miles in thirteen days and sixteen hours.
Berry's average was 70 miles a day
Gillespie reached the finish line at 1:30
p III. and fifteen minutes later Charley
Smith arrived. The riders were all en-.
Enthusiastically greeted. Berry's victory
is contested on the ground that he pre-
pared the map of the route before an
nouncing his intention to enter the
race, and thereby gained an advantage
through his familiarity with the road
travelled.
Horsemen MAINTAIN that this race
has been of wonderful benefit to the
west as showing what western horses
can do. The performances OF some of
these aniamals has been wonderful
perior to anything ever known before.
In the last forty hours of the race
Charley Smith covered about two hum
dred miles, and his horses finished in
excellent condition. Enthusiastic
horsemen see in this race the opening
of new branch of commerce. These
horses, which have shown that they
are fitted for long, hard journeys, are
the product of western plains, where
the horse must range for living on
bunch grass. They are of good blood
and their rearing makes them tough.
Plainsnen say that this race has been
in the nature of an exhibit which will
make the western horse the cavalry
horse of the world.

Glad Somebody Fit"

From the Washington Post.
..Out in California in the early days of
the war said Judge Wallace of San
Francisco in an uptown hotel, there
was a good deal of restlessness, and a
feverish impatience on the part of the
people that something decisive should
be done. Public meetings were of fre>
quent occurrence, and oratory was at a
premium.
Il shall never forget one of these assem-
blages, where the speaker of the day
was young fellow fresh from an East
ern college and surcharged with Greek
and Latin quotations. He hadn't got
very far along with his address when he
logged in an old Roman saw that, freely
translated meant nothing is done ex>
cept by heroic effort
'''Nihil fit he began, and then re-
peated the words with great emphasis.
'nihil ft,' but that was as far as he got,
for at this point a burly fellow, who
wasn't up in the classics, threw his hat
into the air and yelled, bully for nihil.'
The crowd yelled bully for nihil,' and
the collegian was too ratified to pro-
caed y
