Notes From Alma.

Alma, July 13.-The annual log rolling
association, in which Wabaunsee and
Pottawatomie counties participate, will
be held at Alma on August 80. Prepar-
ations are being made for the enter
tainment of a large crowd. The exercis-
es will be held at the Liederkranz park.
On the same day a farmers picnic in
stitute will be held at Alma.
There are already two aspirantS for
the Republican nomination for county
superintendent, H. J. Taylor of Pavilion
perintendent Busenbark will not ask
denomination, as he has purchased the
Esl1ridge Star.
County Attorney c. E Carroll will
have no opposition for his denomination
on the Republican ticket There are two
the fusion ticket. Probate Judge Theo.
S. Spielman CRepublican) will be re-
nominated without opposition.
There is a wall from the bucket bril-
gade" in Alma as a result of an order
recently put into effect by the two sa-
tofore, the GROWER has been much in
evidence on the streets of the town.
Men and even little boys would go to
the saloons with a bucket and secure
half 4 gallon of cold, foaming Annheu-
ser-Busch or Val Blatz, and return
with it to the rear of some store. or shop
or a cool cellar, where a thirsty gang
would quickly consume it. It was a
luxury thoroughly appreciated by a
large number of the Alma population,
both male and female. But the sa-
loon men saw little profit in selling
beer at from 20 to % cents a gallon. SO
they agreed to stop it. Since July 8
there have been no cans, GROWERS,
etc." furnished. He who thirsts now
must HE himself to the saloon.

CAPT. HUGH DUFFY NEEDED.
Requested to Join the Beaneaters-
His Brains Are Needed.

Boston, July 13.-Hugh Duffy re-
ceived a dispatch from Manager Frank
Selee this morning, requesting the ex-
captain to meet the Boston club at Phil

is booked to play the first three games.
Duffy has worked faithfully every
morning at the South End grounds
since the team started west for the best
beating the team has received in years,
and is ready to play or act as one of the
board of strategy. The Boston club
seems to be at sea on this trip, and the
success of Duffy's successor has been
a pronounced failure, until the fans in

American mules have found
high favor with the British army
in South Africa. A cargo of near
ly 1000 animals, shipped from
New Orleans some weeks ago, ar
rived in Cape Town in excellent
shape, with only fifteen deaths on
the way. Although the mules
were green, they were pronounced
to be far more serviceable than
the best trained army mules
bought in Spain for the British
service in Africa. Orders have
been given for the purchase of
several thousand more mules, and
ship is now in New Orleans tax
ing on another cargo of ami
mails for Cape Town. This will
increase the price of mules in
Georgia.
