Ringing Bros. are certainly masters
of the circus world. Their great show
this year is transported by SO double
length cars. They carry 1880 people
employed with the show. $50 horses
and l0S cages and dens of animals.
Their canvas spread covers three times
more ground than the tents of any
other show in the world. The program
is made up of 100 new acts, executed
by 375 performers.
The poet of the Emporia Kansas
Gazette breaks out into the following
rhapsody: Peaceful Bill and Sunny
Jim. fill our cup clear to the brim !;
one is big and stout and fat; and has
girth and all of that and the other is
not slim-Peaceful Bill and Sunny
Jim. Sunny Jim and Peaceful Bill,
how they make the marrow thrill
how they make the goose flesh rise
clouding democratic skies; and our
fears grow pale and dim-Peaceful
Bill and Sunny Jim.

F. f. Francis, the civil engineer
| member of the state board of health,
believes that the state of Iowa should
enter at once upon program of edu-
cation and agitation for compre-
hensive system of sanitary inspection.
He believes that the sewage of cities
should not be dumped into the
streams but should be taken care of
by sceptic tanks. He believes further
that somebody. either the state board
of health or some other should have
authority to enforce the state laws as
to sanitary conditions generally.
A Cedar Falls publisher has recent
ly brought suit against As men who
would not pay their subscription,
obtaining Judgment in each claim OF
these men 2S made affidavit that they
owed no more than the law allowed
thus preventing attachment. Then
under the decision of the supreme
court they were arrested for petit
larceny and bound over in the sum of
$3, 600 each, all but six gave bond
while six went to Jail. The new
postal law makes it larceny to take
paper and refuse to pay for it, We
are glad to note that there appears
one law on the statute books in favor
of the publisher. .-Dougherty World.
Attorney General Bvers has decided
that the vacancy in the supreme
court. caused by the death of Judge

lmously to grant to the Iowa people

iinary rate is 20 cents for the rouEd
rip. that being fixed as minimum.
20 the new rate will be of especial
value to all Iowa people except in a
small zone about Des Moines. The
'allroads announced their readiness to
cooperate in every way in securing a
arge attendance at the Fair, thus
aiding and encouraging Iowa agricul-
iural and industrial interests. !

Happy Ignorance.

Francis Wilson, the noted comedian,
apropos Of certain curios whereon he
believed he had been duped. said with
a light laugh:
THE collector, as he pursues his
hobby, grows in knowledge. Then, re
viewing his collection, he sadly finds
many an instance where he has been
duped.
The one drawback to knowledge is
that it reveals so many dupes and
swindles to us. One summer, for in
stance, l was doing Switzerland.
In the neighborhood Of Geneva,
where the Swiss talk French, l climbed
a little peak one fine morning, and on
my arrival at the chalet at the top
I heard the pretty handmaiden call in
to the kitchen in excellent French:
"Quick, mother, quick Here's a
tourist. Put some milk on the fire.
You know they always like it warm
