NUMBER 1898
That Many People Paid Admis-
sion and $4,000 Entered
the Midway.

Figures obtained yesterday show that
71,29S people paid ten cents each as an
admission to the grounds at the re-
cent carnival.
In what was known as the Midway
$4,000 persons paid an admission fee
of SO cents each.
These figures were compiled by
Treasurer Betz of the carnival asso-
citation yesterday afternoon and are
accurate. He is now working on the
receipts and expense list for the en-
tire carnival and hopes to be able to
make statement as to the amount
earned for the public baths by the
close of the week.
While paid admissions are all that
the management has on which to ac-
curately base the attendance during
the two weeks of the show, the real
attendance was far in advance of
71,000, as nearly every night from 1000
to 5000 persons passed the gates with
out the required fee. Some passed
through on passes, but the majority
were those who participated in the
parades, who were all admitted free.

VISITORS TO FAIR
WILL BE DIRECTED
Commercial Club Will Maintain Bu-
reau of information at Union Depot.

The Commercial club proposes to
maintain during the week of the state
fair a free bureau of information for
the convenience of strangers visiting
the city at that time. The location of
the bureau will be in the union depot,
and there will always be some one in
direct applicants to the different no
tells, and when those are full to other
suitable places and accommodations.
The club therefore asks the kindly
cooperation of the hotelkeepers and
the boarding house keepers in this
work, and also invites those who may
to entertain strangers temporarily with
both board and lodging to commune
cate with the secretary of the club,
G.. P. Slime, Germania Life building,
giving him exact information as to the
character of the accommodations Of
fered and their cost by the day.
The state fair is growing in interest
and Importance and has become so at
tractive a feature of the earliest au-
tunnn months as to insure so large an
attendance that the usual accommoda-
lions offered to visitors are likely to
prove inadequate. 1t is believed that by
the establishment of this bureau of in
formation the city's reputation for hos
pitality will be maintained and that no
stranger will be left without easy
means of finding syllable acconmoda-
tons and Of obtaining any other in
formation with regard to the facilities
for shopping, for seeing the city and
for getting to the state fair that he
may desire.

'TONKA HAS A MUTINY.
Engineer of the George. Disobeys
Orders and the Pilot is Wroth.

Mutiny on the high seas is what
the pilot of the big Minnetonka steamer
George charges against his engineer,
Walter J. Stewart.
On Monday night the George went
ashore on Horseshoe reef in a driv-
ing wind and rain storm.
AS soon as the steamer struck En-
gineer Stewart shut down his engines
and awaited orders. Pending instruc-
tions he made an investigation of the
position of the boat and found that
she was SO high and dry as to throw
her injector clean out of the water.
Immediately after making this dis
covery the pilot ordered full steam
astern, and Stewart realizing the dan
ger of permitting the water in his
boilers to become too low, refused to
obey the order. AS the injectors were
out of service he had no means Of
replenishing his boiler supply.
Finding that his signals from the
pilot house were not obeyed, the pilot
descended to the engine room and
ordered Stewart, on pain of a sound
thrashing and arrest, to start the en-
gines. Stewart again refused to COM
ply and Selling a huge wrench threat
ened to brain the pilot if he entered
the engine room.
Stewart then acting on his own mi
tiative, drew the fires from under the
boilers. The pilot insists that this
action on the part of Stewart consti-
tutes mutiny and insists that the en-
gineer shall be prosecuted for his fail
ure to obey orders.
The owners of the craft are inclined
to believe that Stewart did what was
best under the circumstances.
The quick response of the navigation
company's boats Mayfiower and Puri-
tan resulted in all the passengers of the
George being taken off and landed
without serious Inconvenience to them.

WHY THEY ARE COMING.

Thousands of people are coming
down into this country now, to buy
land. They are coming from every
state and territory in the Union.
Why are they coming?
Because It Is one of the best and
most certain farming countries in
the state.
Because it always raises larger
crops and in greater variety.
Because it has a regular rainfall,
Because it is not afflicted with
drouths, blizzards, and long, cold
winters,
Because it raises the finest stock,
and that at one-third the cost in the
northern states.
Because it cannot be excelled for
variety, quality or quantity of its
fine fruits.
Because the county is fair to look
upon, and has a wonderfully healthy
climate.
Because taxes are low.
Because county warrants are worth
100 cents on the 81.
Because it is a land of fine
churches and schools.
Because it has some of the most
enterprising people.
Because lands are much cheaper
than elsewhere.
Because it is most desirable
place to locate a home.
Are these not reasons enough?

as a result these children haye

however, accumulated through thrift
and energy, from 81 800 to 5000,
