Two little girls met on a public thor
oughfare of Omaha yesterday. One of the
girls was smiling, while the other was
crying. The girl that was smiling said, II
have been TO the Kings Highway" The
girl with the tears said, ~ want to go to
the Kings Highway" The glad little girl
will take the sad little girl to the Kings
Highway today and then both the little
girls will be glad. And so it goes.
Thousands ON Grounds.
Thousands of people visited the Highway
yesterday in all manner of moods, but all
went away in one frame of mind which
was that of happiness For those who
feel down in the mouth, are inclined to
kick their neighbors dog. don't care
whether school keeps or not, the Kings
Highway is recommended as a sure cure.
Follow carefully the direction given by
Doctors Preed and Bushea and the Board
of Governors and the sun will shine in at
every window, the dicky birds will warble
| their sweetest lays and you will forget
| about counting the days to payday.
The crowds Josted good naturedly on
the Highway last evening and the shows
were well patronized. Colonel Dixon, the
educated horse, is proving one of the pop
ular attractions. The animal must be seen
to be appreciated. Prince Bonnie, said to
be the handsomest boy in the world, holds
levees to admirlng audiences.

Nebraska moving picture exhibition gave
preliminary exhibition of the pictures

Bright sunshine and a refreshing breeze
marked the opening of the second day on

II have been in this business for thirteen
years and you may say for me TO the

cultural products will excel any display
yet made in this county. BY this evening
we expect to have the floral, agricultural
poultry. textile and can goods departments
all arranged and on next Monday the live
stock will be installed. The show will be
worth coming many miles to see and the
officers of the Douglas County Agricul-
tural society are pleased with this seasons
interest in their department OF the street
fair. We have much more space than last
year and the quality of the displays cannot
be beaten In the state OF Nebraska We
are making a speciality OF arranging the
agricultural exhibits by precincts. as the
competition between the various precincts
is keen, as much so as between the various
counties at the recent state fair at Lin

researches in a petrhed forest in that part
OF the country. The petrihcahon shows
