A GOOD STORY ANYHOW.
Denver Paper Tells Of a Thrilling
Race Through Abilene.

The following from the Denver
Times is published an example Of the
imagination possessed by Denver
reporters; Ia a thrilling race with
a limited express train across the
plains Of Kansas, an automobile
driven by A. L. Walters Of st. Louis
conveying George Sawyer, an oil
magnate from Independence, Kas., TO.
Denver, came out winner. The race
was run from Chapman to Salina, a
distance Of thirty-four miles. No
stops were made by either train or
automobile and the latter pulled into
the end oithe course one mile and
half ahead. Naturally enough the
train crew felt the defeat in the inn
promptu race, and the news Of the
race passed on down the /line. The
machine was bowling along at lively
clip near Russell when the Overland
Limited came in sight. The engineer
waved signal Of defiance and the
second test Of speed of endurance be-
tween locomotive and an automo-
bile was on. Walters opened up his
machine and the engineer pulled open
his throttle another notch. Side by
side over road and rail the contest
was waged. Walters threw open his
machine until the speed register in
dicated that he was running sixty-two
miles an hour, the capacity Of the car.
Both pulled into Ellis together, with
honors even in perhaps the most
unique race that has ever been run in
the West,

MORE ABOUT THE FAIR.
win Be A Great Show in All Its
Departments.

The speed ringis being looked after
by Secretary Wann and Superinten-
tehdent Etberington. There will be
more entries than last year, and prS
diction is made that there will be
some state records during the fall
meet.
The hog men have two capable
leaders in Col. Curphy and Joe Baier.
Col. Curphy gave freely Of his time
last year. and his handling OF the
swine and OF the business was one of
the most satisfactory Of any DEPART
ment. Joe Baier will show some of
his high priced stock. He numbers
among his herd one boar that s250O
would not buy.
The stock men will be well taken
care Of this year by Superintendent
Carver and his assistants. There will
undoubtedly be larger display OF
live stock than has ever been made
in Dickinson county.
Four thousand premium lists have
been printed and are being distributed
to all parts Of the county. Any per-
son wanting one can have their wants
supplied by writing to H. G. Wann
or c. G. Wyandt, Abilene.
The superintendents Of the various
departments Of the fair have been
working hard to collect the greatest
quantity and the best qualities Of the
various resources Of the county. |
They are meeting with cooperation
in all thelr requests.
Live stock judges have all been
secured and when their names are
announced it will be seen that the
best talent obtainable has been
secured.

About IL o'clock the ladies arrived at
the Craudall home and spread boun-
teous dinner from their well filled
baskets. Everything to tempt the
appetite Of man was displayed at this
dinner, from the yellow leg chicken
TO the finest Of cakes.
As the noon hour drew near, the
farm was scene Of activity. Men,
women and children filed the yard.
while tifty-three head Of horses rested
from their labors and satisfied their
appetite. In the afternoon Mr.. Mar
