Walter L. Mains Circus

Frank Hurst representing the Walter
L. Main New Fashion Plate Shows and
his brigade of assistants arrived in the
city today. and are now busily engaged
IN dressing the dead walls in holiday at
tire with their many colored pictorial
posters illustrating the meritorious novel;
ties embraced in that organization. Mr..
Hurst is more than enthusiastic in his de-
scrip'ion of this newly organized aggre-
CATION, and declares that he can be held
personally responsible for the iulhllment
OF every announcement and the appear
ance OF every advertised attraction. The
old Walter Main circus, which has tour
ed the United States for the past quar-
ter century. was disposed OF in its entire
~ at auction when Mr.. Main first evolved
the idea OF his new departure. and the
New Fashion Plate shows as they appear
today is the result of restless search and
an enormous outlay OF money.
All winter long an army of workmen
have been engaged under the watchtul
eye OF able assistant directors in COM
pletlng the paTaphernalia, while Mr..
Mains personal attention has been di-
reeted to securing the many sensational
acts and stocking his extensive mena-
gerie. For this purpose he made a
lengthy tour OF Europe. where he secur-
ed many high priced attractions, none of
which have ever appeared on this side
OF the water.

organized today stand eminently alone

So Natural It Attracts The Bees

Classic authors tell US that the famous
Greek artist, Phaedias. painted fruits so
wonderfully that birds would alight upon
the frames and pluck at the painted rep
resentatives OF grapes and other fruit. A
modern example is seen in Annapolis.
The golden pineapple which surmounts
the tower of our new postoffice is so
wonderful in its likeness to that luscious
fruit. that for several days a swarm of
honey bees have been endeavoring to
devour it, without success, it is needless
to observe.

According to the journal of the COM
missioners, June rs, 1901, there was
paid to Oby & Co. an item Of $400,
which, on the ledger, is said to be for
royalty on Webster system"
Now in the report of Prosecutor
Day the Webster system has its place.
In that report 1t is stated that a bill
was paid by the county to Oby & Co.,
for webster system, steam heating and
fixtures" the amount of the bill being
s400.25. Thus, it is seen, the system
in the first place cost but 25 cent more
than the royalty" paid on it. The
date Of the bill referred to by the pro-
secutor is January 4, 1900. Now, a
y, ar and half later comes in bill for
substantially as much as the original
cost, for royalty" 1t is said at the
commissioners Office that the s400

is concerned. They say there that they

say, to pay whatever bills come in
from the workhouse directors, they do
not, it is apparent, feel entirely at ease
on this point.
But the royalty" route to the county
treasury has not been traversed alone
by the workhouse authorities, nor will
history relate that all of the "royal-
ties" paid by the county were charge
able to the workhouse. That penal in

Workhouse Bills the Plumbing Still Coming in and

Original Plant-A House of Same Kind

explained that new system had to be
put in at the workhouse proper, that
the boiler house had to have attention,
that new boilers were needed and that
the brush factory was also an expensive
affair so far as the plumbing was con-
cerned. But everything seemed to have
been finally concluded and the work
was turned over. The people were as
founded at some of the bills, but re-
slgnedly let it go into the past, feeling
certain that nothing of the kind would
be permitted to occur again.
They will learn with some interest,
therefore, that the bills are still COM
ing in. Now that the system is in,
and some days get dull, there are "re-
pairs to make. Every little while,
during the interim between this date
and the date of Prosecutor Days re-
port,
BILLS FROM THE WORKHOUSE
have been coming in, endorsed by the
workhouse directors and by the we'll
salaried secretary, the same having
been connected with Oby in the plumb
ing business in Alliance. On top of all
of the bills reported by Prosecutor Day,
for plumbing at the workhouse, come
the following bills:
March 19, plumbing at workhouse,
S303.2S.
April 10, plumbing, labor and mater
ial at workhouse. $756.64.
June 25, general repairs, heating and
plumbing, $13771.
August %, repairs and rearranging
steam heating, s4S2.62.
All of these bills appear on the jour-
nal of the commissioners. and signed
by Auditor Reed as clerk, the bills
having come from the workhouse di-
rectors, of which board Mr.. Love, here
inbefore referred to, is secretary. There
are two or three other bills in favor
of Oby & Co., one being for work on
Jail steps, $20l0 and another for sup
plies for the court house and Jail,
$6t .35. This latter bill is said TO in
clude such items as toilet paper.
There is, in the workhouse expendi-
lures alone, an aggregate of S1,6SO.25
for
REPAIRING THE NEW WORK
that the county just got through pay
ing for, as shown by the prosecutors
report. The new work was no sooner
in place, apparently, than repairs
on II began.
But the bills are not all covered by
the aggregate $1,6sO.25. There is
another bill that is an interesting one.

spcnse. 1T takes long time to ge>

"There were some repairs put on the

ly," was observed. Did that include
the introduction of this new system?
"Yes, the system Is in, and the results
will show for themselves. We will,
Wien the time comes, show how ben
ehcial 1t is, and tell you all about it.
rs there a royalty attached to that
system too?" was asked.
"Oh, yes" spoke Commissioner
Crawford. There is a royalty to the
sy stem we introduced in the court
house. All those systems have roy
alties. We still have to pay a royalty
did you agree to pay the royalty
to the plumbers, as in the workhouse
case?"
No, we went right to headquarters, u
was the answer offered by Commission
er Summer.
ITO about how much is this royalty
going to amount?"
well, we don't know. We will have
to pay royalty as everybody else does,
but we do not know just how much il
will be-"
So, in the near future, the people
will have to go down in their clothes
and pay another batch of royalty,
