IN TEE POLICE COURT
Two Hen Dsfers Court fer 1hsit of a
 Watch.

Daniel and Michael Kennedy, both well known to the police. were in the oity court today before Judge Peasley charged with hntOxicati0n and theft or a silver watch valued at $G. from John Mcdonald. The evidence showed that the three men were drinking all the af- ternoon and that in the evening their funds were exhausted but their thirst was by no means abated. Mcdonald lives in Woodbury. yet he knew tne other two quite well. He had cheap silver watch. and apparently 1t began to have a magnetic attraction for his friends when they saw their flfilus get ting low. Mcdonald was not sure how many drinks he had before they struck a saloon on Meadow street. But after leaving the place Corr snatched the watch from McDonald's pocket, snap ping the chain. and ran away. Ken nedy went with him. Mcdonald was sober enough to hasten to the police station and report the theft and Detec- tive Keegan was assigned the case. Keegan met a man on Grand street who informed him that Corr mad tried to sell him a watch for twenty-five cents on Union street. Up Union street the detective went and saw Kennedy and Corr issuing from an Italian sa- loon. Corr had fifty cent piece in his right hand but the watch was gone.
 Corr's side of the story was that Me Donald gave him the watch to sell for a quarter. and that 1t was not worth ten cents. A man offered him ten cents for 1t and he thereupol threw 1t away. Kennedy had nothing at all to do with the transaction he said. be- cause he was not in the company until late m the evening. The watch vas thrown sway. said Corr. near Frank Brothers saloon. Kennedy said he was not with the other two until he met Corr on Union street. Officer Wagner said he saw the three go up Gra,sd street together. Both were given thirty days for intoxication and $1 and costs for theft was piled on Corr. Kennedy seemed in a bad way.
 James McGreevy was fined s and costs for drunkenness.

Postal Officials Say That It Is Near .fs, Avon. This State.
 New Haven. May 13.-The local postofiice officials are trying to hit up- on some feasible plan by means of which they will he able to offset the confusion that always exists during the summer in regard to the mails that are sent to various shore resorts along the coast. People writing to friends at the shore addfess their let ters to the names of the beaches or [ houses. but entirely omit to add the postofiice to which they should be ad- dressed.
 For example. many letters are ad- dressed to Spunkey Hollow. Tater Hill, Sucker Brook. Toad Road. Toil- some Hill. Umpawage. weekeepeewee, . Whistleville and Purgatory. These are but few of them. hut all of them represent places that have been named by some group. of property owners. and while all of them may be near to postoffices. none have any ofices of their own and the postal clerks about the state are kept guess ing as to the destination of the let ters, and in many cases they never reach any destination at all. The post cffice officials are very anxious to have the people who write this sum mer specify that Purgatorv is near Avon. and the same with other places in order that their mails may be ex- pedftiously delivered

SETTING EGGS.
Do Owners Of Choice Drseds Heep

There is a great demand for setting eggs in all parts of the town. and in some districts it requires a lof of in- fiuence 10 get them Owners of choice breeds don't care to dispose of eggs at the market price and what they do sell in the stores you cannot trust them for setting. The knowing ones say that the jolting in the carriages spoil them while others claim that in order not to let the breed become too common many put pin holes in the eggs and this renders them useless for tatching. The last impufafion looks rather uneharitable. but there may be something fo it. for a man who set fifty eggs bought in the store got but one bird out of the whole of them. while a neighbor who paid big price for a setting to the same man says there was a chicken in everyone of them In explaining this the dealer said that the first lot was moi warranted but the ofhers were

Other amusements will include the
Merry Pike with it's specialties, wild
animals, tame elephants and camels,

liberality of the Great Northern,
Northern Pacific and 500 lines gives
the people to the west, as far as the
Missouri river, the same low rate.
The rates go into effect Saturday,
Sept. 2, so that people in any part
iof Minnesota or the Dakotas may
reach the cities by Saturday night,
Sunday or Monday morning in plenty
sof time for the events of the open
ing day. This is important, for the
first day of the fair will be the best
this year. All exhibits will be in
place by a. m. During the morn
ing United States Senator Jonathan
iP. Dolliver of Iowa will make the
formal opening address. In the after
noon there will be the full program
of amusements, including the appear
;ance of the famous Dan Patch in an
attempt to lower his worlds record
of 1856.
Dan Patch is the most remarkab BILE
horse in the world. He is easily the
fastest harness horse alive, or that
ever lived, the only horse that ever
paced a mile under two minutes, and
the horse with the brightest pros
