terday-De Kreko Pays His Per-
centages-Concerts Tomorrow.

A tremendous crowd visited the Mid
way of the Salt Palace last evening and
then thronged through the palace. All
the shows made money, for they had
large audiences at the conclusion of the
bicycle races.
The time between the ending of the
races and the closing of the grounds
gives most of the shows a chance for
two and some of them for three per-
formances. At each one of these their
tents were full and the "spielers" were
happy. The races have been very i'm
portant to the Midway showmen. They
attract the crowds, which afterwards
swarm over to the shows.
Kreko of the Streets of Cairo and As
sistant Secretary Nash did not reach
larger proportions yesterday. The
Turks were not closed up. Mr.. De
Kreko made a settlement of the per-
centages he owed the association with
Amusement Director Talbot and j. r.
Gardner of the board of directors. They
gave him receipts with the Salt Palace
association authority upon them.

until the general roundup this fail. Some
attempts were made soon after the

success. Now there is but little chance
of experimenting the parties as they have
had ample time to either secretly dispose
of the stock or get them safely out of

it mildly Murry E. King. a volunteer
recently returned from the Philippines,

him at Belknap last night. Immediately
the three neignboring towns, Circleviie,
Junction and Kingston were all enthus-

dispatched to Marysvale to the other two
Piute patriots viz r. w. De Witt and
Jefferson Howell, that reception would

make the homecoming day of rejoicing.
This morning the Circlevllle band, fol-
lowed by hundreds of people and hylng
the national colorS. came to Junction TO
meet the volunteers, only to find, through
some unexplained reason, that they were
not coming.
Considerable complaint is being made
about the mail service in the southern
counties. From Belknap south the mail Is
carried by stage and several times with
in the last three weeks we have been COM
PEELED to go without our Salt Lake papers,
because the train was so late there was
no connection made, although the stage
driver has waited from one TO three hours
after schedule time to try and get the
mail and then drive faster to make up lVi
the time lost.
Harvesting is at its height here. but
owing to drouth, hailstormS and early
frosts, the crop is going to be very hight,
and much fear is entertained that what
wheat is harvested will not make bread
on account of its being so badly frozen.
