GRAND FORKS FAIR
ADVERSE WEATHER KEEPS AT.
TENDANCE DOWN.
Live Stock Exhibits About the Same
as at the State Fair-Poutry and
Agricultural Are Far Ahead-The
Bacing Results.

Grand Forks, N. D., Aug. 1.-The
weather is threatening again today.
There was a heavy rainfall in the city
this morning but it did not extend to
the grounds and the track during the
forenoon was in good shape. If there
is no more rain this afternoon the
races can be pulled off in good shape.
Because of the unfavorable weather
the attendance this forenoon was de-
cidedly slim. 1t will be larger, of
course, this afternoon
The live stock exhibits are about
the same as at the state fair in Far
go, the majority of those exhibits be-
ing shipped here and some local ex-
hibits having been added
The awards are going along similar
lines as the state fair with Dean Shep-
ard and Professor Richards of the
North Dakota agricultural college do
ing the judging.
The poultry exhibit here is much
superior to that at the state fair.
The agricultural exhibit is also far
ahead of that in Fargo. 1t is a decided
credit to the exhibitors and to the fair
association.
The fair officials are praying for
good weather so the attendance will
take a boost and there will be chance
to break even.

Excavations of the ancient city of
Gezer, mentioned in early sacred and
profane history, carried on by mem
bers of the, Palestine Exploration
Fund for the last three years have
developed numerous finds" accord
ing to advices from Jerusalem pub
lished in the number Of the Biblical

Eight cities have been found, su-
Derimposed upon each other, on the
side Of the old defense to the western
road to Jerusalem from the noun
tains of Judah. The culture, his
tory, religion and customs from as
far back as $500 3. C. have been
revealed by architecture, jugs, weap-
ons, masonry, etc.
DR.. E. W. G.. Masterman, a mem
ber of the excavating party, writes
as follows:
"The earliest inhabitants lived in
caves and made all their weapons
and instruments of flint. In the mid
die period bronze is the only metal
known, while at a time roughly syn
chronous with the coming of Israel,
iron appears and gradually replaces
bronze. 80 '.'..

KILL BANKER FOR $4,000
Two Robbers FiendishIy Beat
. Cashier in San Francisco.
One Engages Teller in Conversation
While Other Gets Money-Drag
Victims Into Back Room.

San Francisco, Cal.-Armed with
reyolvers and carrying long pieces OF
gas pipe concealed in their sleeves
with which to subdue any opposition
in case it was deemed advisable not
to make any. noise, two robbers en-
tered the Japanese bank of Kimmor
Ginko, also known as the Colder
Gate Bank, lat No. 1888 O'Farrell
street. and stole $4,000 in gold. Be.
fore; leaving, they dragged the only
two occupants of the building, S.
,Urakata, It's manager and paying tel.
Ter, and A. Sassaki, a clerk, into a
back room. There they beat the two
men into Inconsistencies, the for.
mer dying Of his injuries two hours
later, while the latter was mortally
wounded.
Although the crime was discovered
but minute or two later by Gus
toners who entered the bank and
found the two men lying in pools OF
blood, which flowed from their many
wounds, the robbers made good their
escape. The pipe with which the
two japanese had been beaten was
on the floor near them.
The robbers selected time for
their crime when but few persons
were transacting business in the
bank. Waiting until the building
was entirely empty of customers, one.
of the men engaged Urakata in con-
versation while the other walked be-
hind the partition and picked up
sack containing the gold. He was
seen in the act by the clerk, Sassaki,
who called to his employer for help.
Hardly had the man uttered a sound
when he was struck down by the
man who was carrying the gold.
Then his companion struck the
manager-teller with piece Of pipe,
rendering him unconscious. The
most fendish part of the crime then
followed. Dragging their already
unconscious victims into poorly
lighted room, where there was but
slight probability of their being seen,
the robbers rained blow after blow
upon the two Japanese until they
were certain they could give no
alarm. They then coolly walked out
of the bank, being seen but not espe-
cially noticed by several persons, In
Guiding, the customers who a few
minutes later discovered the victims
of the crime,

Police Dinan announced that his
theory of the crime was that the rob-
bers were the same men who recently
murdered P6tsner and Friede, two
merchants, in their stores in this
city. -,......

Newspapers Part Of Government.

Judge Sulzberger, of the Philadel-
phia Court of Pleas, in resisting the
desire of the grand jury to indict a
street-cleaning contractor, announced
the doctrine that the newspapers are
fundamental part of the govern
ment. IF a member of grand jury
has any criticism to make Of admin
istrative matters" he said, "he
should go to a newspaper with them,
and not endeavor to transfer the
grand jury into a machine for in
vestigations on its own account. y
He said that the constitution recog-
nizes the press as a critical agent,
and that it is their duty to find out
evils and bring them to the attention
of the proper authorities.

Natures Sherlock Holmes.

The sun has revealed an interest
ing scientific discovery which will de-
light the archaeologists of the en-
tire country. At Castle Park, Col
chester, as elsewhere, the great heat
of the last few weeks has consider
ably modified the natural greenness
of the grass. But in one place there
were noticed parallel and transverse
baids of grass which were much
browner than the surrounding ver-
dure. Closer examination showed
that the brown bands formed the
ground plan of a spacious Roman
villa. The shallow soil over the
ruined walls of the villa had been
dried more thoroughly than the deep
er soil on either side of them, and
thus the sun had made tracing OF
the villa for the edification of scien-
tists.-Dundee Advertiser.

Colored Linen Collars.

So bewitching were the embroid-

suits made with black velvet trim

and put in its place the linen. As
they are all made with detachable
collars and cuffs, so the suits can be
cleaned, it is not bad idea to change
from black velvet to blue linen and
hen on to green linen and old rose
before coming back to the black
again.
