Woman's Power Over Wild Beasts.

The popularity of Bostock's trained
animal show as Midway attraction
is accumulated with each days pro-
gress of the Pan-American exposition.
AS each succeeding day increases by
thousands the attendance at the ex-
position, so is the crowd increased that
continually surges around the attrac-
tive quarters of the Bostock exhibition.
Never was the glance of power in a
woman's eye 80 well illustrated as
when Madam Morelli comes upon the
ENGAGED stage with her ferocious leo
pards, panthers and jaguars all around
her, watching for an opportunity to
rend her in pieces. yet yielding un-
willing obedience to her commands and
showing the mastery of femininity
over ferocity. There is something
strangely fascinating about these wild
beasts trained by human skill and pa
thence to execute such marvellous and
surprising feats, scenes that afford the
spectators moments of thrilling ex-
citement, in performance so kaleido-
scopic as to make it ever new. 1t
matters not how often seen, and this
in a measure accounts for the number
of times the same persons find them
selves at Bostock's show. Once seen it
seems to cast spell over the specta-
tors, and they are irresistibly drawn
again and again to this arena of most
exciting interest.

Days That Will Aid In Hurryins the
Final outcome-BeIieved Another
Effort Will Be Made for a Confer
ence With Trust Officials.
Pittsburg, Aug. 24.-The conference
Of the labor leaders at the Offices Of
the Amalgamated Association was the
leading feature Of the strike during

decided change in the strike that will
tell with greater effect on the trust
and aid in hurrying the final outcome
Of this struggle"
Just what this change Is to be was
not said, but it was inferred strongly
that the coming event hinged upon
the conference, that was taking place.
Two sessions were held by the confer
ees behind closed doors. After the
adjournment of the first session none
Of the participants would give out any
information of the proceedings fur
ther than to say that the leaders had
been called together for the purpose
Of having the situation thoroughly ex-
planned to them and to have some &C.
ton taken looking to the aid Of the
strikers morally and financially by all
Of the organizations represented.
There were present at the confer
ence besides the Amalgamated off,
Gals, John Mitchell, president of the
Mine Workers of America; J. w.
jerks, member of the industrial COM
mission; Ralph M. Easley, secretary
of the National Civic Federation, and
Henry M. White, general secretary of
the United Garment Workers. 1t Is be-
lieved that as result of the meeting
another effort will be made to induce
the United States Steel corporation to
enter another conference.

Billy Mason, the honorable mayor
of Judson was on our streets week
ago last Tuesday on his way to his
former home in Garden City on a
visit. In conversation he informed us
that the burg of Judson is fast ap-
preaching the proportions of village,
and the inhabitants thereof are happy,
peaceful and prosperous. He said he
is doing fairly well in his store bust
ness; but, slipping from his vest
pocket small phial displaying from
rs to 100 pearls from the size of a No.
4 shot to marrowfat pea and some
of the prettiest tints one ever laid eyes
upon, and to pure white; this, he
said, beats keeping store. Mr.. Mason
has over 900 pearls of various sizes and
shades which he has taken from CLANS
dug up from the bed of the Mime
sofa river at Judson. Pearl fishing
has been going on in this state for
long time. These valuable gems are
found in nearly all of our streams and
in a great many lakes. Some very
beautiful and valuable pearls are
found every week. Mr.. Gates of Gar
den City has one set for a scarf pin
which he wears, that he found last
summer near his home. It's value is
about $40 or $50. Mr.. Mason said he
has combined pearl fishing with his
root digging, and has always been
quite successful. Lake Crystal Union.

An Exploit of Years Ago In Which Cole
Younger May Have Engaged.
MINNEAPOLIS Journal /:


Minneapolis Journal:
A former citizen of st. Louis, now a
resident of OAK. Park, who had known
the Younger boys in the old days, re-
ceived call from Cole Younger few
evenings ago. During the course of
their conversation the st. Louisian,
without mentioning any names, told a
story which brought wildly to mind
an incident of Coles stormy youth
that he had well-nigh forgotten, and
caused him to roar with lau ghter at
the humorous side of the tale.
The story had to do with the exploits
of a crowd of "drovers, " who operated
in the country roundabout Kansas City
soon after the war, and showed how
they combined charity and robbery.
Zone of the characters who enter
into this story said the st. Louisian,
fixing his eye on Cole, twas an old
colored nanny, who lived a short dis
lance from Kansas City. When the
SIO"o VI ulONC1S 1OIO up W htl uOuSS
one dark night and demanded accom-
modations until morning she at first
entered strong objection. She said
that she had scarce enough food to
keep her own body and soul together
and that she would probably be turned
out of the house and home on the
morrow on a mortgage foreclosure.
The sheriff would be there to collect
the money due at that time and as she
was without funds she would be I'M
able to meet his demand.
"'How much dye reckon you owe
the sheriff, mammy?' asked the leader
of the crowd, fine looking, strapping
big fellow.
"She named the amount, the big
fellow passed around the hat, and the
sum needed was Immediately forth
coming.
THE sheriff arrived soon after the
departure of the 'drovers' in the
morning. The payment was promptly
made, and he set out for the city we'll
satisfied. His satisfaction was short
lived, for at a turn of the road the
'drovers' closed on him and relieved
him of the Identical coin they had sub
scribed to worthy cause the night
before
Cole laughed heartily over the story
at it's conclusion, and though there
was twinkle in his eye, he said nary
a word that might betray his remem-
brance of the exploit.
II was at war all my life up to the
time left Saltwater" he said before
leaving.

MR.. BURCH'S SERVICES.
Will Be Engaged This Week By Street
Railway Committee.

The board of trade committee on
street railway has decided to secure the
surveys and estimates of Engineer
Gray. who prepared them for the old
company. Engineer Burch of Mime
apolis will be engaged to verify these
surveys and figures, and if both agree
the case will be strong one. Mr..
Burch will not be engaged until this
week, when it will be known definitely
whether the old company is out of the
field. S. Wilhartz went to Mime
apolis Sunday to learn what the de-
sires of the present holders of the fran
chise are.
There is a strong sentiment in favor
of the new move that was promulgated
the other night, and it will have
strong local money backing. -
