The Missouri Valley Veteri-
mary Medical Association met
in Omaha yesterday for their
annual meeting. Last night
many of the members were in
troduced into the mysteries of
the Ak-Sas- Ben by the Grand
/ Mufti. Dr.. Lucas importuned
those present to attend the
races at Mo. Valley on Thurs
day. which will be Omaha

the mon to take the women
folks along and assured those
going that Geo. West would
get the crowd home at a decor
Gus hour. DR.. Lucas and his
agents passed through the
crowd with tickets and sold
quite a number. A large num-
Der expressed themselves as in

With all this shortened train
service between Chicago and
New York the question pro
pounds itself why we should
not have materially quicker
service between Chicago and
the Missouri river. The dis
lance between Chicago and
Omaha is only half the dis
lance between Chicago and
New York and without inter
vening mountain ranges to
cross. If an eighteen-hour
schedule between Chicago and
New York is feasible, a twelve
hour schedule between Chicago
and Omaha would leave plenty
of time to grease the wheels
at way stations. 1t is not a
wild prophesy by any means to
predict ten-hour trains be-
tween Chicago and Omaha be-
fore another decade is passed.

YOUNG PEOPLE WITH A CIR.
Gus.
One 81 the Causes for the Popu-
larity Of the W. p. Hall Cir.
Gus Is Its Young Blcod

A striking feature of the w.
P. Hall Circus is the number of
young people with the show.
This is particularly true of the
women performers, who are all
young and fresh looking. From
the executive staff to the stars
of the dressing tens, the people
of the w. P. Hall Show are the
most business-like and best-be-
haved circus people that were
ever in this city.
In other vocations many
times young people displace
other folks because they work
for less salaries. This is not
the case with the w. P. Hall
show. Of the $50 performers
billed by w. P. Hall a majority
of them are young, but they
are paid higher salaries than
any other circus of the past or
present ever paid. This is an
age of specialists with ring per-
formers. The time was when
a man or woman was paid ac-
cording to the number of acts
they could do. The more and
daring the acts the higher the
salary, and in some instances
two or three could give the
whole show. Not so now.
When w. P. Hall contracts
with his performers, it is not a
question of quantity, but of
quality. He insists upon hav-
ing the cream of the profess
sion. If the performer can do
only one act, but do it better
than any one else in the whole
wide world, then he is sure of
a place with the Great w. P.
Hall Show. AS the elder MEM
bers of the profession depend
ed upon the number and not
the quality of their acts, it is
easy to see why the younger
persons who specialize are given
the preference.
The general air of vigor,
snap and ginger about the
smooth running nerforrnancn
of Mr.. Halls Show is in a meas
ure due to the young blood
which Mr.. Hall has infused In
to the circus business.
The Great w. p. Halls Show
will positively exhibit for one
day only, at Mo. Valley Satur-
day, July 9th.

Kansas City, MISSOURI.
June 26th, 1905.
Editor Mo. Valley Times:
Having had the pleasure of see
ing our last i'm print, we are
constrained to try again.
We promised to write about
Kansas City this time, but while
the City is all here yet, we are
yet almost a stranger, knowing
very little about it.
We once heard a man remark
that the reason Harrison Coun-
ty, Iowa, was so rough, 1--WE re-
fer to it's physical contour,) was
that when it was created and
launched from heaven out into
space, that it didn't fall very
far, otherwise it would have
|flattened out; and had it fallen
as far from heaven as did wes-
tern Kansas, it would have been
equally fiat.
Now, applying the same rule
or argument to Kansas City,
one would think, Judging from
the uneavenness of it's natural
surface, that it was much near
er to heaven than other circum-
stances and conditions would
seem to indicate.
Kansas City is quite a large
city, and is growing at a rapid
rate; south and east, the city is
growing at a rate seldom wit
messed, in fact a man was going
home one night from an evening
entertainment, a n d growing
weary, he lay down on a vacant
lot to rest, and fell asleep, and
when he awoke the next morn
ing, he was surrounded by the
walls of a large building with
iron grating over the windows.
Property is high here, not on
ly above the level of the river,
but also, measured in dollars,
selling as high as 81, 25O.O0 per
foot. We have not bought very
many feet at that price.
This is certainly a city of
manufactures. We think that
everything from a paper match
box to a colossal fortune is made
here, and new industries are be-
ing added almost daily. Last
season the STANDARD" located a
mammoth oil refinery just out
side the city limits; this sum-
mer a Boiler works is being
built at Sheffield, inside the
city limits, on Blue river. This
plant is built of brick, 18Ox2OO
feet, and when completed will
give employment to about 500
hands. There is also to be To-
Gated at the same point, an ex-
|tensive Automobile factory.
The nut and bolt works also at
Sheffield is quit an extensive
plant, and gives employment to
about $50 men and boys. These
plants, together with the gaso-
line engine works, and the C.
M. & st. Paul shops, make Shelf
field quite a manufacturing
center, for only a small suburb.
The large packing plants of
which | think there are six, are
located over the State line in
Kansas, but so nearly identified
with the business interests of
the large city as to be almost a
part of it, intact, the CONNER
|cial interests of the two Kansas
Cities are Identical, and as the
two cities are only divided by
an imaginary line, geographic
cally, so also is their business
interests divided only in imagi-
nation.
The principal manufacturing
and wholesale houses are loca-
ted in the western part of the
city in what is known as "The
West Bottoms" This is the low
lands lying along the east side
of the Kaw river just at and
above where it empties into the
