REDMEN CARNIVAL.
One VIII Be Held in Topeka This
Month.

The two Red Men lodges of Topeka
of June IL to %. Last night, among
other things done by the city council,
a license was granted to the Nichols
Amusement company to hold a car
nivai during the week mentioned from
the alley west of Kansas avenue on
Seventh street to Harrison street. The
carnival company has ten shows, two
bands, four free attractions, a balloon
ascension, a high wire bicycle act and
an outside high trapeze act. The show
has received very favorable mention.
from the towns where it has been es-
tablished as Red Man attraction.
The carnival is now at Pittsburg, and
will be in Lawrence next week. The
next week thereafter it will be set up
in Topeka.
The Red Men, a beneficial and fra
ternal order which has about 1870
members in the two Topeka lodges,
has decided to erect a building in the
city. The carnival is a part of the
scheme to raise funds for this purpose.
The Nichols Amusement company was
hired for the occasion on account Of
its bill of health from other towns
where it has been employed as an at
traction. The show guarantees to
furnish better show and less graft
than any attraction of the sort shown
in Topeka.

Meeting of Property Owners Leaves
Paving Question Undecided.

A meeting of the property owners
committee on paving, the committee of
the council of tellers and the Kansas
avenue paving contractors was held
this afternoon.
The contractors saw that the drift
was turning towards the Kansas
Bitulithic Paving company for secur-
ing the paving contract on the grounds
that in all items its. bid was below the
estimate. Because of this they got to-
gether and asked for a meeting. The
committee of tellers decided to hold
back awarding the contract and ask
for an opinion from the city attorney
as to whether the contract can be split
M in its items to different firms.
The decision will be returned by
Friday.

Apple Harvest Ended

The apple harvest on the big Hurley
Fruit Farm is finished and the hands
are turned off this week. The crop
has been the largest ever raised and
will exceed $4,000 bushels. The late
August rains increased the yield inn
menslv as the fruit kept on growing
and made the size OF the apples much
larger than usual.
For the past six weeks from fifteen
to thirty-dve men and girls haye been.
kept constantly employed and about
six hundred barrels were shipped out
each week. The entire crop was hand
led except the last Of the Whitneys of
which over thousand bushels we're
not marketed by the Mitchell Fruit
Co. which had bought the entire crop.
This apple farm is unquessionably
the largest industry in this part OF the
state and brings into Hurley thousands
of dollars each year. Many visitors
came here during the picking season
and all were impressed with the size
OF the orchard and the yield of the
trees. There are about 100 acres of
trees and the Wealthy orchard is said
to be the largest OF that variety in the
United States.
