BUTTER AT THE FAIR.
An Average Score of s4R Per Cent
Was Made.

Des Moines, August 29.-The dairy
exhibits at the fair have been remark
ably fine. The average score of the
butter entered is 941a per cent, the
highest ever recorded at any fair or in
any butter competition, so said Dairy
Commissioner Wright yesterday morn
ing. The judge of butter, Prof. G. l..
Mckay of Ames, is one of the only
five or six first-class judges of butter
in the country. He has officiated at
fairs and contests all over the west,
so that his markings would be a fair
comparison with many other fairs.
According to the rules Of the Iowa
State fair the butter is judged on a
scale of one hundred. Flavor counts
As points, body 25, color Is, salt 10,
and package 5. Perfect butter would
be marked 100; but of course none of
that class has ever yet been found.
AS was said, the average score at the
fair this year was 94k per cent,
while the score usually made at butter
competitions is only 80 to go. All
the entries were for creamery butter
Out of the sixty-seven entries made,
seventeen scored 81 or better, a re-
markable showing. The winner of the
first premium is G. d. Elder of Man
chester with score of 98A. The
second premium went to w. S. Smarzo
of Masonville on a score of 9S%. The
third to Harry Evans of Strawberry
Point with a score of 9Sh.

ADRIANoPLE BEING RAzED.
One Section Of City Said To Be in
Ashes and Three Sections Burning.


Sofia, Bulgaria, August 30.-The
Dnevnik publishes report that one
section of the town of Adrainople is in
ashes and that three other sections
are burning. The inhabitants are
panic-stricken and the authorities
have lost all control. The Turks are
committing wholesale massacres. An
unsuccessful attempt was made, the
advices add, to blow up the west bound
Orient express between Usunkistri and
Tchernkeskia. Only the locomotive,
however, was derailed.
A telegram from Loren says the
railway station at Ekshi was blown up,
number of officials being killed and
the rails torn up for a distance of $50
metres.
The insurgents have blown up the
lighthouse at Vasilike, and now occupy
all the principal points along the Black
Sea coast. The barracks at Demetka,
near Adrainople, have been blown up
and the garrison killed. Four thousand
Albanians are pillaging the districts of
Okrida and Krushevo. The latter dis
strict has been deserted by the popu-
lation, who have joined the insurgents
in the mountains. The Turkish forces
In the frontier districts have been
largely increased.
Reports from Constantinople say
that seven hundred medical and veter-
mary students and army cadets have
been given their diplomas and COM

usual examinations and have been
drafted into the Third army corps.

Won Without Opposition in the Column.
bus Convention.

Columbus, o., Aug 27.--Mayor Tom
L. Johnson of Cleveland was nominal
ed yesterday for governor by the DEM
ocratic state convention, and the
Johnson programme was carried out
so completely that every man on the
Johnson slate was nominated by &C.
clamation, excepting John l.. Clarke
for senator, who was endorsed on the
second ballot. The name of John l..
Zimmerman Of Springfield was not
presented for the gubernatorial NOM

John H. Clarke, who will canvass
the state with Mayor Johnson and
other democratic candidates, has been
prominent attorney at Youngstown
for many years, but now he is located
in Cleveland, which city has four
prominent candidates.. the republican
as well as the democratic candidates
for senator and governor. The plat
form says:
Assembled in convention at Column

of 1903, we, the democrats Of Ohio, re-
affirming the declaration on national
issues of our platform of 1902, adopted
at Sandusky, hereby henew our alleg-
lance to the democratic party of the
nation and again avow our devotion to
the principles of it's last national plat
form. We accordingly condemn col
onialism and Imperialism, denounce
trusts and trust fostering tariffs, repu-
date government by injunction and
oppose financial monopoly, together
with every other legalized monopoly
and legalized privilege. Adhering to
these principles of the Kansas City
platform, we repeat our condemnation
of all efforts to renounce or ignore
them"
While the platform contains more
than 1000 words, the above para
graph is the only reference to national
issues. The people are asked to deter
mine whether all state interests are to
be sacrificed for the reelection Of

Negro State league issued an address
in which the depredations and out
RACES against the negro race were

WANTS YACHT BUILDER.
Upton viii Not Challenge for Cup Tn.
til England Produces One.

New York, Aug. 29.-Sir Thomas
Upton, aboard the Erin, declared yes
terday in an interview that he would
never challenge again for the Ameri-
cas- cup until a man had been found in
England who equalled Nat Herreshoff
in yacht building. The baronet admit
ted his disappointment at his failure
and frankly said that he had no hope
of winning even a single race. He
said:
American brains and development
have us beaten. If the day ever comes
when England produces a Herreshoff
then l will challenge for the cup
again. 1t will not be until then. 1t is
unpleasant to be compelled to admit
it, but the brains in boat building are
on this side of the water. Herreshoff
is a wizard. His work is wonderful.
None can have admired Reliance
more than have. She is the best
boat by all odds and has won on strict
merit.
81 am a most disappointed man.
My hopes were high when l left home,
for l surely believed we would carry
back the cup. Yesterdays f1uke only
prolonged the agony for me- do not
want to win on any slips and regret
ted Reliance's failure to get over the
line as much as any one could"
Sir Thomas was asked why 1t was
that Shamrock III. was not given more
sail area. He said that he trusted
everything to the best of English tai
ent. He complimented Captain Barr
and said that he had no fault to find
with the way in which Shamrock had
been handled. 81 hope" he said, that
we will get good, twenty-five-knot
breeze and a heavy sea tomorrow.
Then we shall have all the chances
on the calendar to try out Shamrock's
qualities. ---..s----....-.--
The baronet praised the hospitality
and generosity of Americans and ex.
pressed the belief that many of them
wanted to see him take the cup.
"They would push Shamrock over the
line ahead if they could, l believe"

Ames, August 31.-An unknown man,
feet 10 inches high, sandy complect-
ed, wearing moustache, about % to 80
years old, was run down and instantly
killed one mile north of Kelly Friday
night. The victim wore blue overalls
over dark blue pants, dark serge coat
and vest, black wool hat and blue
shirt. He was riding on a railroad
tricycle., evidently taken from Polk
City junction, coming north towards
Ames. When about one mile north of
Kelly he was overtaken by freight
train and instantly killed, his neck and
collar bone being broken, besides a
number of severe wounds and bruises
on head and body. The body was was
brought to Geo. LIQUIDS undertaking
establishment in Ames, and coroner's
inquest held. There were no papers
in his pockets that would reveal his
identity, and only one clue as to
where he was from, that was the re-
turn portion of an excursion ticket
over the Chicago, Milwaukee & st.
Paul railway from Des Moines to
Madrid. The ticket was issued August
26, and void after August 20. Besides
this ticket was small blank book,

ACTS OF BARBARISM.
Repressive Measures in. Macedonia
Reach Limits of Cruelty,

&c Reach Limits of Cruelty.
London, Aug. 27.-According to a
Sofia telegram to the Times, the Turk
ish repressive measures in Macedonia
have reached the utmost limits of bar
barism, and 1t is evident that 1t is the
intention to accomplish by degrees the
total extirpatioh of the Bulgarian pop
ulation. Within the last few days,
says the Times correspondent, IL
more Christian villages have been
handed over to fire and sword and the
women and the aged have been massa-
cred Unfortunately. Conveys of pris-
oners dispatched to Monastir have
been murdered by their escorts on the
way. A private letter from a foreign
resident in Monastir says that even
the local Turks are disguised and med
itate assassinating the consul, in or
der to provoke European Intervention.
The insurgents are doubtless taking a
terrible revenge and are executing the
revolutionary programme to the let
ter. The reported concentration of
large Turkish forces in the Adrian
ople district at Mustafa- Pasha, Kizy-
lagach and other points on the Bull
garian frontier is regarded with much
apprehension in Sofia. In the special
dispatches from the near east, pub
lished this morning, gloomy view Is
taken of the crisis in the Balkans.
According to reports from CONSTANT
nople, a rumor was current that war
had already been declared against
Bulgaria. 1t was proved to be un-
founded, but the state of popular feel
ing is said to be such that no other
issue is regarded as possible.

WILL NOT CHANGE ORDERS.
President Says European Squadron
Will Proceed to Beirut.

WIN EIoSSSo W SS"uhs
Oyster Bay, Aug. 29.-President
Roosevelt was informed last night by
4 representative of Associated Press
of the incorrectness of the report that
Vice Consul William c. Magelssen at
Beirut, Syria, had been assassinated.
The president expressed gratifica-
ton that Consul Magelssen had es-
capped without injury from the assault
Of the would-be murderer. He an
nounced, however, that no change at
present would be made in the plans of
this government and that the Euro
pean squadron, which he had ordered
20 proceed Immediately to Beirut,
would continue to it's ordered desti-
| nation.
1t can be said that the president
and Secretary of State Hay both re-
| gard it advisable in view of the pres.
emit state of unrest in Turkey to have
American war vessels in Turkish
| waters.
For several hours yesterday Presi-
| dent Roosevelt and Secretary of State
| Hay were in conference at Sycamore
Hill. They discussed every suggested
phase of the situation in Turkey. At
The conclusion of the conference, Sec
"etary Hay announced his intention Of
| returning Immediately to Washington.
The fact that Secretary Hay con-
siders his presence in Washington
| necessary at this time indicates the
| serious view he takes of the Turkish
| situation. He had not expected to re-
turn to Washington for several weeks.
At II o'clock last a telegram was
received by Secretary Loeb from Act
| ing Secretary of State Loomis at
| Washington, communicating the text
of a cablegram from Minister Leish-
| Associated Press dispatch of the in
accuracy of the report of Consul Mag
elssen's assassination. 1t can be said
20 be the purpose of President Roose-
Welt to afford American citizens in the
disturbed provinces of Turkey all the
protection possible. For that reason,
and for others which may develop in a
short time, the decision is reached
that no change will be made at this
time in the orders to the European
Lsquadron. Admiral Cotton will proceed
with his vessels to Turkish waters
with the idea of safeguarding Ameri-
cans and American interests.
| Washington, Aug. 31.-Other than
the advices from Admiral Cotton an
louncing his departure with the cruis-
ers Brooklyn and San Francisco for
Beirut, there were no developments in
The Turkish situation yesterday so far
| as Washington Is concerned.

THROWING, DIRT AT WINTERsET
Work on Road From That City to
Greenfield Beams,

Winterset, Aug. 27.-Yesterday Phe-
lean and Shirley, of Omaha, who have
the contract for building the first ten
miles of the Rock Island extension be-
tween this city and Greenfield, began
throwing dirt mile and half west
IF the city. The company has pur-
chased the right-of-way through this
city and the only contention now is
whether the city council will allow
them to cross what is known as Rail-
road street, diagonaliy. If the company
gets this concession they will strike
the Cherry survey, but will follow it
only a few miles. Winson Bros, the
main contractors, arrived Monday af-
ternoon with several cars of mules
and horses, and all kinds of tools used
in railway building, and will immedi-
itely go to work further on. 1t is said
hat sub-contracts will be let and
twenty-five miles of the road will be
completed by November of this year.

SOUTHERN IOWA FLOODED.
Said to Be Worst DeIuge in History Of
State,

.
Council Bluffs, Aug. 28.-Never be-
fore in its history has southwestern
Iowa been so hopelessly in the grasp
of floods, and never before has there
been such general destruction of prop
erty of all kinds. This city seems to
have been the center of the heaviest
downpour of rain ever recorded for
twenty-four consecutive hours, the fall
at midnight Wednesday amounting to
a little more than eight inches. This
fall varied somewhat at the various
towns throughout the section, but all
report heavy rains, almost cloudbursts.
Yesterday of the nine railroads en-
tering the city from the north, east
and south, but one was able to move
3 train, and that road, the Illinois Gen.
.ral, has rendered the use of it's track
% the other roads for the passage of
their most urgent passenger trains.
Between here and Missouri Valley
the Northwestern is under water the
greater part of the distance, and the
amount of track that is washed out is
problematical.
The Rock Island and the Milwaukee
between here and Nicola are complete
ly under water greater part OF the
distance, but the water is receding
some this evening, showing that thous-
ands of feet of track on both roads
have been washed away. 1t is esti-
mated that it will take a week to
make repairs so trains can pass.
On the Avoca-Carson branch Of the
Rock Island, bad washout was re-
ported near Oakland, by the Nishna-
botna.
The Great Westerns new grade has
been great sufferer, and there is
hardly rod of the grade for miles out
Of Council Bluffs that is not honey
combed, and will have to be repaired
before the passage of trains. Where
its grade passes over the Milwaukee,
three miles east of this city, the flood
water of Mosquito creek has cut out
large section of the grade that will re-
quire several days to repair.
The Wabash has not been great
sufferer in this immediate neighbor-
hood but at Malvern it's tracks are I'M
der two to three feet of water and are
being badly injured.
The Burlington has been a bad stuff
erer all along its line from here to
Creston. At IL o'clock yesterday
morning it's large covered bridge over
Mosquito creek, three miles south Of
this city, was washed away.
At Glenwood the water is all over
its tracks for a mile to depth Of two
feet.
At Malvern the same condition pre-
walls, as 1t also does at Hastings.
On it's Hastings Carson branch some
bad washouts are also reported. But
it seems to have suffered the worst at
Corning and prpScOtt
