Lou Chief Back i'm Kentucky,

Lou Chief passed through the city
Monday IN route from Mexico, Mo.
to Bowling Green, KY, where she is
to be shown this week. Mr.. Garrett
was very successful at Mexico,
having shown her eight times and
won seven first and one second prize
latter being in the $500 stake
though Lou beat the winning
horse in other SHOWS. Mr.. Garrett
has received letters from several
gentlemen unknown to him living in
Missouri expressing themselves very
emphatiealiy as differing with the
judges in awarding this prize. They
say, in their judgment, no horse
living is worthy of wearing the rib
bon ove Lou Chief.-Farmers'
Home Journal, Louisville, Ky.
The award of this premium was
made by three of the best men that
could be secured-all of them
from outside counties. Both horses
had friends on the grounds and it
was nothing more than was to be
expected that there would be some
dissatisfaction. Lou Chief is a fine
animal, but she has been beaten a
number of times before, both in Mis-
souri, and in her own state. Rex
Mcdonald, it must be remembered,
is also Il fine animal, and out of
twelve shows has captured eleven
first premiums. The fact of Rex be.
ing All Audrain horse had nothing
to do with his being awarded first
prize in the $500 stake. If he had
belonged in Europe the decision of
the judges would have stood the
same. Our Kentucky friends should
remember 1t was a ring of the finest
saddle horses that ever come together
and either one of the four ribbons
was to be coveted. Rex and Lou
Chief will meet again at st. Louis
next month. we presume

A QUEER CHARACTER.
STARRY, the Paper King" a Born Gen.
ius Who Plays the Piano Or
Sweeps Chimneys.

"Harry King, better known as the
paper King" was the way a deli
cately constructed, long : haired
! young fellow introduced himself to 8
small audience in the Rlngo Hotel
parlors one evening several days
ago. He was Il celebrated paper
tearer that evening. He also acted
the part of a professor of facial ex.
preston, a clog dancer and other
parts were also taken by this talent
ed young fellow.
King is a queer character. He
can accommodate himself to any,
thing and to all circumstances. Dur
ing the fair here he was a general
manager of several dime museums,
aided the fakirs on the grounds in
their business and sold comic songs
on the square by electric light after
supper during band concerts. For
industry and constant hustling he
has no equal. Dressed in a ''rube"
suit, he peddles songs, paints signs,
and pockets his small coin, but never
has a cent a few minutes after.
There is nothing impossible for
Harry. One of the best advertisers
of his talents and his goods, he al
ways makes himself prominent to
the public at every chance. His last
appearance in this city was in the
role of a chimney sweep. From the
top of Geo. Kabrich's tall brick bus
mess building and from the chimney
tips of M. Blum's large brick his
voice was waited across the business
portion of the city in musical strains
yesterday as he cleaned out chimney
after chimney with the experiences of
a nickel-in.the-slot machine. After
each chimney had been scraped
Harry would take a walk around the
square, advertising his new business
in odd style. His home is every
where, his business everything. He
is full of music up to his chin and
clears the bone out" of any instru-
ment handed to him. Let come
what may Harry is prepared for it.
He is a genius with no ability to
save what his talent earns him.

Bruce-SuIiinger.

Miss Linda Sullinger, n of this
city's most popular young ladies
and loved by all who know her, was
married to Mr.. e. H. Bruce. OF
Fort Smith, Arkansas, last Tuesday
at 2:30 O'Clock by Rev. D. C,
O'Howeil at the residence of hel
mother, Mrs. Sullinger, in south
west Mexico. The wedding was a
quiet home affair, only the near
est relatives and a few friends of the
family being present.
The groom is a prominent bust
ness man of Fort Smith. MI. and
Mrs. Bruce left that afternoon for
Fort Smith, where they will remain
several weeks, when they will move
to Dallas, Texas, where Mr.. Bruce
will embark in business. The we'd
ding was quite a surprise to even

ents.
