NO STREET FAIR.
Question Decided Last Night at Bushes

No: Meeting. ~.
Last evening it. was decided that
Denison should not have a street fair
this fall The meeting was the last ofsI
series,of meetings which have been
held to consider the subject. The re.
tail merchants seemed to be in favor 4
of the plan, but it was opposed by
those in other lines of business and
was finally voted down. 1t may be
that the action was wise one, but we
believe that after a large majority of
the retailers of the city had expressed
themse Ives for the fair and were will
ing to do the work and put up the most
of the money, the other. business men
should have helped them out as much
as they thought best and not have OPP
posedthe wishes of those Immediately.
effected. We trust that next year the
movement may be. started earlier and
that Denison may have street fair
which will be credit to the city
The street fair this fall would have
meant month of activity in Denison,
the money that would have been eS
pended in preparations would have
| benefited every Slaboring man and
would have found its way back into the
pockets of those who spent it, through
the ordinary channels OF trade; 1t
would have called the, attention Of 1.-The
entire county to Denison and would
| have brought large crowds to Denison
at a season when most of the farmers
are making theirfall purchases. With
4 out criticising anyone, we must say
! that we believe a mistake has been
made which will be sp1endidly rectified
/ next fall.

SURPERFLoUS ACTIVITY.
A Most Common Phrase Is II Am So
Busy"

A Most Common Phrase Is II Am So
Busy"
The fact that the world-the world
of women, at least-is too busy is now
put forward so often that it's utterance
amounts to a truism, says Harpers
Bazaar. The most common phrase in
our language seems to be that which
proclaims the want of leisure. Il am
SO busy" ''If / can ever get time;"
Life is such a pressure these days."
1.-THE complex duties of the moment"
1.-THE busy modern public"-these are,
all of them, most familiar sentences
to us and are on our lips time and
again in explanation of business, So
cial and even moral shortcomings. 1t
is not putting it too strongly to say
that In the present rush of living we
are losing some of our best charac-
teristics and painfully dwarfing our
lives. We are too busy to be neigh
borly. hospitable, to be sympathetic
a good many, indeed, Of the finer traits
of humanity are finding less express
sion among us. The question of bet
ter control of the leisure which the
old century gave to women and which
the new will increase, is a large one
and admits of elaborate presentation.
1t is only intended in this brief para
graph to emphasize a single point
which is the value of quick weighing
of every effort in which one Is about
to engage, or is now absorbed. to be
sure Of its necessity to yourself, or
yourself to 1t. II this one principle be
judiciously applied 1t is confidently
predicted that amazement will follow.
1t will be revelation to discover how
much that in ones haste has been
considered essential. is really super
fluous. An overestimating sometimes
of our own Importance, this too with
out vanity, leads us to do many incon-
sequent things. Has not every woman
who will read this whipped herself
sometimes into going to place be-
cause she considered it social. philan-
thropic, or even business duty, to find
that the effort was not needed. and no
adverse result Of any sort would have
followed her absence?

Their Names Mentioned in q Governe

A railroad president and a United

would be a good idea for this govern

remarked the railroad president, smil-
ing significantly, IF the government
has the money to pay for two hundred
thousand miles of railroad, with an
aggregate capitalization of nearly So
900, 900 900, can point out the shop
where most of the goods can be
bought" "The shop?' echoed the SEN
ator, inquiringly. That is what 1t
amounts to, Senator. There are seven
or eight men that control all the rail-
roads in the United States. and most
OF them can be found in New York
city on any business day." who are
they?" the senator asked eagerly.
"Propcnnded in Wall street or in any

men, this question will invariably ellie

CURIOUS CHINESE TWINS.

They Are Joined as We're the Famous
Pair From Siam.
Curious Chinese twins are now be-
ing exhibited in Europe. Like the IA.
nous Siamese twins. they are Joined
together at the lower part of the chest.
These twins are boys and they were
born in China few years ago. They
are Of normal intelligence, and each
weighs twenty-nine pounds. Four years
ago they had smallpox, the infection
passing in twenty-four hours from one
to the other. One day whisky was
given to one Of them and yet 1t was
the other who first began to show signs
of intoxication. They go to sleep about
the same time. but 1t is possible to
awaken one without arousing the 9TH
err. They can walk and run with ease,
and when they lie down they very
quickly find comfortable position. M.
