One Of the most sensational fea-
lures of the great Hopkins county
Fair VIII be the daring death defy
ing act of Count Louis Pormelee who
has Just returned from successful
European tour. This man rides
down an incline ladder so feet high,
$50 feet long and leaps gap % feet
wide on a bicycle. This act has
been unsuccessfully attempted twice
before at the Great Hopkins County
Fair, the first attempt resulted in a
severe fall, the second in a collar
bone broken Count Pormelee,
however, will perform this act on
the first day of the Great Hopkins
County Fair. The Fair Association
do not guarantee however, that this
act will be attempted after the first
day. This act alone is well worth
the price of admission. This act
has been secured at an enormous
expense and should be witnessed by
every one in Hopkins county.

a station a few miles from
Carml, the tender and mail cars
jumped the track. The engineer
stayed at his post and prevented
a disastrous wreck. No one was
injured. The point at which the
accident occurred is described as
cornfield and the passengers
were practically NARROWED there
until nightfall without anything
to eat. According to Conductor
Joe Robinson, the accident was
clused by the trucks of the
tender jumping the track. The
train was delayed until an en-.
CINE was hurried to the scene
from Evansville.
Engineer Jas. McGrath and
Conductor Ben Lacey were in
charge of a fruit train Sunday
from Nashville to Howell. The
trip was made in about 5 hours
and 90 minutes, but this time
could have been reduced if a
delay of 30 minutes had not
been caused by a hot box at
this place. The train consisted
of 20 cars, II of these being

Irish were very popular in America

jobs.
Finally the lady rang for the maid
and said:
Here, Anna, take this postcard
and put it in the letter box outside.

obituaries, and the American said:
