NO SENSE IN ALL THIS SCENE.
High In the West the rising sun
Proclaims approaching eve.
The matin bells are sounding forth:
Their toll the toilers leave.
The dewdrops sparkle on the grass,
All parched with MONDAY heat,
And DER the busy, hustling world
The silence reigns complete. Il
The purple apples on the vines
Are swinging in the breeze;
And crimson pumpkins cluster thick
Upon the leafiess trees.
The skylark floats, with raucous croak,
Across the moonlit lake,
While bullfrogs trill with sweet accord
From moor and bog and brake.

The Minneapolis engagement next Sat

sands Of Minneapolitans who were un-
able to squeeze into the tent at the re-

tunity to see this thrilling feat, and those
who did see it will want to see it again.
Another new attraction of very diff
ferent kind is the drill of the Aurora
Zouayes. Until the past two years this
body of amateur soldiers has been cele-
brated for it's wonderful maneuverings in
military shows and tournaments, where
it has often astonished officers of the

would mean anything to the average man
unless he saw them on the billboard two
weeks before the circus was due, and
even then he would have to think hard
before grasping their significance. The

so affectionately, are the most expert

BATTLE OF COWPENS
Fierce Struggle Between Kirkham
Guards and Dairymen at
Columbia Heights.
Shirts Were Torn, Noses Bloodied
and Firearms Called Into
Play.
The peaceful and ruminatlve COW is the

The peaceful and ruminative cow is the
The peaceful and ruminative COW is the
cause Of it all, but shirts have been torn,
noses have been bloodied and shots have
been fired in the struggle.
A score or more of surprised bossies
are impounded in the village enclosure
and tomorrow before Justice of the Peace
Garfield the legal part of the contest will
be fought out.
Since the city began creeping out into
the country and part of Anoka county
was plated and partially peopled as Co
lumbia Heights, the numerous dairymen
in that vicinity have been allowed to feed
their cattle over the unimproved area of
the village. This was done with the un-
Outstanding that herd boys should be
employed to keep the cattle within proper
bounds. The upland grasses were rich
and luxuriant and there was no trouble
till the specter of commercialism alighted
from the stub-line car and stalked into
an erstwhile peaceful community.
For be it known that Sam Kirkham,
once a noted sergeant of police, con-
ceived the idea Of cutting the grass for
hay in the unoccupied tracts and sue
ceeded in purchasing the privilege from
the owners of the land. Then there APP
peared a new factor in the situation-the
Kirkham guards squad of young Getty
fellers' enlisted to dispossess the dairy
L1ClI VI IlSlltS. liz COWS
refused to keep off the grass and the
guards impounded the whole bunch in an
enclosure where there was water but lit
tie feed.
This was the combination of circum
stances leading up to the modern battle
Of Cowpens fought Saturday afternoon,
with supplementary skirmish yesterday
While the dairynen recognized the legal
right Of the Kirkham forces to impound
and restrain the bovines, they charged
that the mild-eyed prisoners were not
being properly cared for. Unsympathetic
and unskillful treatment meant straight
money loss in reduction Of the milk
output, and the first overt act took place
| following hot dispute over this point.
! There were eight of the guards engaged
and about an even number Of embattle(
farmers. It was lively mix-up while
! it lasted, being fought with fists, sticks
and stones Combatants were generally
came out of the melee thoroly mauled
One Of the Kirkham guards had his shir
completely torn off and one of the
dairymen's force had his scalp laid oper
with sharp bit Of rock. In the mids
of the battle revolver shot was heard
This brought the combatants to thei
senses and hostilities ceased, the guards
maintaining possession of the impoundet
herd.
Yesterday there were further but les
serious demonstrations, the farmer boy
dropping around occasionally to shy

! forces.
