Without Head Officers.


Without Head Officers.
Sioux City, Sept. 16.-The Interstate
Livestock fair which closed weeks
exhibition here Saturday, finds itself
without head officers, President M. L.
Finn and Secretary r. L. Wirick hav-
ing resigned, yesterday.
Notwithstanding that there were
from twenty-five to thirty per cent
more people in the city from the three
tributary states than in any former
year, the attendance at the far was
much less than last year, which was
racord breaker for the association. The
retiring officers are saying little ABOUT
this but it is known that they are not
in favor Of the dry" policy which mas
prevailed at the grounds this year thru
the effort Of the local anti-saloon
league. Wirick has been secretary OF
the association for the past SIX years
and his retirement will be disappolnt-
ing to the directors.

~ Fair Yesterday.

Special to Times Republican.
Northwood, Sept. 16.-Nearly 1000
people attended the Worth county fair
yesterday, the biggest crowd the city
has entertained at fair time for several
years. So great was the crowd that
the hotels and restaurants were almost
sswamped with business
There are more exhibits than there
have been for a number Of years, also,
and the management feels well pleased
over the result OF its labors. The pros
poets are that there will be all even
larger crowd tomorrow. The Harness
races of yesterday were nothing very
startling. The track was slow and the
fields starting small. The faster class
es. were set for today, when better work
was expected.
About the only disappointment OF the
day however, was the lack OF interest
in the auction sale of registered cat-
tie and hogs. A number of animals
were sold, but in the face of the other
attractions, the interest Of the crowd
could not be conferred on the sale as
much as had been hoped.

FOR GOOD LAWYERS.
Practitioners to Be Asked to Promise
 Not to Influence Ignorant.

New Haven, July 16.--New Haven lawyers who are members of the American Bar association, among whom is Judge Simeon F.. Baldwin. have received notices of the annual meeting which is to be held at Seat tie, Wash, August 25 to 2S. At the meeting a canon of professional ethics will be presented by commit tee appointed at the last annual meeting. members of which are Jus tice Brewer and Alton B. Parker. This canon. if adopted. will have the effect of reducing litigation in the different states and will make law yers peacemakers. The canon will be of interest to lawyers other than members of the association. It pro- yides against lawyers seeking in- jured persons to bring suits against railroads where the ground is not good or of working up business un der the guise of giving disinterested friendly advice. in influencing the criminal. the sick and the injured. the ignorant or others, to seek his professional services. The canoE concludes:
 "A duty to the public and to the profession devolyes upon every men, ber of the bar. having knowledge of such practices upon the part of any practitioner. immediately 'o inform thereof to the end that the offender may be disbarred."

RAILS SPREAD
And White Mountain Express Train Was Wrecked Near
 Greenwich
ONE WOMAN KILLED

Greenwich, July 16.-Spreading rails at a point one hundred feet west of the station on the New Ha- ven road, sent four Pullman coaches of the White Mountain express, leaving New York at $40 inta a heap of ruins, causing the death of one woman, Miss Margaret Arm strong. seventeen years of age of Wayne, Pennsylvania. She was travelling with her mother to the White Mountains Twelve others were more or less severely hurt and hundred or more passengers in the other coaches were badly shaken up. Miss Armstrong was the first pas senger to die in wreck on the New Haven road in seven years.
 The train was going at a great rate of speed through the town. There were nine coaches, four of them Pullman. The day coaches broke loose and were not injured. The list of injured is remarka ble small for the character of the acci- dent and the scene of the wreck. It was the bridge over the Green wich road. The rails and the road bed were frightfully torn up by the wheels of the wrecked coaches. Coroner Doten and the railroad off cials are making an investigation.

WANT BETTER BREAD.
Dr Wiley Says 1t Would Lead to
 Fewer Diyorces.

Atlantic City, N. J., July 16.- Better hread-maklng would lead to fewer divorces," said Dr H. M. Wiley, of the government poison squad" in an address before the American Biscuit Makers Associa- tion.
 Good bread, in my opinion, he added, would help to solve the American evil of divorce. If the bakers make good bread and then educate the people to buy il the great destroyer of domes ic happi- ness, dyspepsia would be removed and we will hear no more of the divorce problem"
 Dr Wiley declared to the bakers that much of the bread sold to-day is unfit to eat; that too much chem icalized four is used: that he can noa see the reason for coloring flour, and that 1t was the government s intention to have flour solu the color nature intended 1t to be, that bleach ing injuries the flour.
 He said that eggs. imported from China in cans. broken months before being used in cakes and bakeries, had been outlawed, and that the government held to the theory that anything that is not fit to eat raw is not fiji to eat mixed in foodstutfs. He declared no food should be arti- fically coiored

NAUGATUCK VALLEY BOOM.
Reported Purchase of Million Pounds
 of Copper Looks Good.

New Haven, July 16.-The re- ported sale of a million pounds of copper in the New York market yes terday has aroused unusual interest throughout the Naugatuck valley h' this state, a manufacturing section which of all others in the country is given up almost exclusively to brass and copper industries. For monti.s the brass industry has been very slack and the various concerns, ot which the American Brass Co is the largest, employing in good times nearly 5000 skilled men, have been buying copper only on hand-to mouth policy. It is thought the pos sible purchaser of copper in yester- days market may, be one of the Naugatuck valley concerns, and if this be so the prediction IS made that this industry will show an early re- viyal. It is known that Ill the com panies have been recently entirelg out of stock. and an influx of orders to any amount would mean that con- per would have to be purchased. July is a very dull moath and the natural tendency of the market would be for an improvement in the outlook for the immediate future. The reported purchase of million pounds of copper is looked upon here as the forerunner of more pur- chases.
