THE ELKS' FAIR
AT SIOUX CITY.

Teddy Roosevelt Will lie Ono OF the
llonored Guests of the Week-Hall

Jabour's Oriental Show and Circus.
which shows in conjunction with the
Fair during the week of September 222l
to 27th inclusive, s a combinations of
stellar attractions that will doubtless
crowd the town with thousands of
strangers during that week. Never bo-
fore have the interests II visitors heel,
so carefully looked after as they will be
during this festival week.
When the Sioux City Elks decided TO
carry out the enterprise the first thing
taken into consideration was the question
OF admission charges. In majority o.
towns the custom was to charge so much
for each and every one of the ten differ
ent shows. After much discussion it
was agreed with Mr. Jubour to make
but one charge OF !ifty cents, which
would cntitle the visitor to see every
thing in the entire aggregation. The list
OF attractions. including what arc called
the seven open-air performances, is Il
most extensive one, and when you con
slider that you see them all for fifty cents
it is certainly the bargain of your life III

sion.

Sentiment inspired by patriot
ism has-and it is to be hoped al
ways will afford, one-cent-a-mile
rate to enable the "boys in blue"
to assemble in reunion at least
once year, from all points of the
compass. Such rate is author
ized from all points east of Chi
cago to Washington for this pur-
pose in October, 1902. Such a
rate has been afforded once year
since the fist reunion of the vet
erans of the War of '6l. This
especially low rate has become
popular, not only for the purpose
for which it was established, but
for other purposes, chief among
which we recognize the opportun-
ity thus afforded to visit friends,
at or convenient to, the place OF
reunion, because of the low rate,
and because of the favorable op.
portunity by reason of the liberal
extension of time limit for return
On dates authorizing sale Of
Grand Army Excursion Tickets to
Washington, for the Reunion Of
1902, are also authorized similar
reduction in rates, from all pointt
west of Chicago, with time limits
the same as on such tickets te

There are whole lot of people
who feel quite uncomfortable re-
garding the moves being made in
railway construction on the Rio
Grande. They feel that by some
move Grand Junction might be left
out in the cold. We hardly think
that they have any need whatever
to have an idea of that kind. We
will be on the through line of the
Rio Grande, whatever betides. The
road north of US may be built very
shortly, we hope it will be. 1t cans
