The street, carnival being given here
this week by the u. s. Carnival com
pany continues to draw good crowds
Owing to the streets being quite
muddy one or two OF the shows were
not put on Wednesday night. The
crowd has been as orderly. as coul9
have been expected, and but few ar
rests have been made this week.
H. T. Gibson, the well known far
mer east of town, was quite pain
fully injured Thursday by being gor.
ed by a fierce bull belonging to a
neighbor. He was out in his pasture
when the animal jumped the fence
and attacked him. He was soon over
powered and knocked to the ground,
where he lay unconscious for some
time. The animal soon left him and
as soon as Mr.. Gibson was able to
reach his home he came to town and
was given medical attention. 1t was
found that, in addition to lesser
bruises, he had his jawbone fractur-
ed. 1t will be some time before he
fully RECEIVERS, though fortunate that
he was not killed.
Large crowds from all directions
were drawn, to town Saturday night
to the street fair and harvest carnl-
val, and it is estimated that 1000 or
$500 people were IN town the last
night, and it was until after midnight
and after the tearing down of the
shows commenced that the last OF
the crowd finally dispersed. The
carnival people left on the Rock Is
land Sunday morning for Newton,
where they will appear this week.
They received a much larger p atron-
age here than they expected, and are
reported to have done quite well.
This was the first carnival ever CIV
en- in Eddyville. 1t was given by the
u. S. Carnival Co, under the auspices
of the Eddyville Commercial club,
and they gave good satisfaction, prov
ing to be fairly good class Of peo-
pie and specialists in their line. The
crowd throughout the week was
orderly and kept in control without
additional police. Early In the week

hibiting the throwing Of cornmeal or
any substance except confetti. Plen-
| ty of confetti was useG but nothing
worse was INDUCED in.
