A busy scene Is daily enacted at tbs

wiped out by the disaster. 1t is only
by making an actual inspection that

or the magnitude Of the work going on.
Every underground cable Leading
into the building. and there were thou
sands Of them, was burned I'D by the
fire. They must be replaced In order
to get service. A force OF men IS at
work making the necessary connec-

Excellent Display Is Seen.

hail arouses surprise and qualification
at the exceptionally good variety of
exhibits. not so much for the quantity
as for the quality and the tasty ar
rangement Of the display.
All day long the town was filled with
visitors from the surrounding hills,
who came to attend the harvest festi-
val and to make merry on the holiday.
Crops have yielded abundantly this
year, and the farmers took this op-
portunity to rejoice over their good
fortune and to meet their neighbors for
a CAD to amuse and entertain both old
and young. The business houses were
decorated for the occasion, and flags
were flung to the breeze.

DRUNK AGAIN.;
BACK IN JAIL

For the fourth time In the past few
months Charles p. Smith is lodged in
the city bastile. this time on a charge
OF being drunk and disorderly. His
conduct last night was not very bad,
he only had to be elected from a few
saloons for disturbance, but his record
on the police docket does not especial
ly attract the friendship or sympathy
of the officers.
his hrst onense was treated as other
DRINKS, and he was fined $3.50 which
he paid. The second time he was ar
rested he was accused of creating a
neighborhood disturbance and driving
the members OF his family out OF their
home with threats of violence.
His case was called in court. and
the police judge, upon looking into the
matter, decided that to impose a fine
upon him would mean the taking of
money his family needed for support
and discharged him with a repremand
and warning that the next time he
appeared on the docket he would have
a Jail sentence To serve The next
time came August 81, and he was SEN
fenced to il days in the city Jail He
finished his sentence about the 15th
of this month and this morning IS
back again.

So admired are these costumes. in

the thing to make up many lightweight
