These nine words mean larger at
tendance each day and night of the
five days of the coming fair. They
mean more money at the gate. They
mean greater pleasure for every man,
woman and child who attends any of
the programs at pretty South Side
Park. They mean that the people
will be satisfied with the fair as a
whole, for when You give them de-
lightful musical program you have
gone a long ways towards pleasing
them.
Kopp comes high, but he is worth
it. He has won the popular favor in
Maury with his excellent band and
there is not another musical aggrega-
tion south of Cincinnati which would
prove nearly so satisfactory.
Four years ago Prof. KOpp came to
Columbia for the first time as the
leader of the First Regiment Band of
Cincinnati. The band was a good
one, the best at that time ever brought
to Maury county. The next year and
the next Prof Kopp came with his
own band, Kopps Military Band, and
the music was still better. He was so
accommodating the band and the So
loists were all so good and the pro-
grams were so well arranged that ,
every one who attended he fair felt
that the music alone was worth the
price of admission, and however bad |
the weather and however greatly the |
other features on the programs were
interfered with Kopp's band was
worth the money and there was little
or no complaint.
Last year Prof. Kopp had just mar
the band. so the members of the Fair
Association decided to try elsewhere
for music. They were assured they
could get equally as good music and
could save money at the same time.
The result was almost painful. The
band sent here was far from satisfac-
tory to the public and the fair man
agement
This year the management deter
mined to secure the best, and they
agreed with the public that Kopp was
and is best, though for a time it
ooked as if engagements at other
places might conflict with the band
coming here. ,
However dates were arranged and /,
hen it was up to the management
o accept Mr. Kopp with, band of
eighteen pieces or the First Regiment
Band of Cincinnati with twenty
'ieces and at considerably less cost
hey chose Kopp.
In addition to the regular members
+ the band Kopp will bring several
ocal soloists of high class. The
and is now playing in Nashville for
few days and has won the highest
raise of press and public. Maury
ountians will look forward with
leasure to the visit OF this musical >
ggregation and it is sure to be the
lost pleasing feature of the Fall Fair

Officers Lancaster and Stages made
an arrest Tuesday on which they have
been working since April 10. On that
night three arrests were made for
drunkenness and disorder, but at the

have been careful not to let him slip

This is not the RRst time he has been

BIG POTATO FROM NORWICH.
Occupied Whole Express Package
 and Weighed Two Pounds.


 There is a potato patch on Geer avenue, Norwich, that beats any gar den in the county for raising large tubers, says the New London Globe. Evidence of its wonderful product was received by a New London man this week in the shape of an express pack to weighed two pounds. It was not accompanied by a guarantee of good faith, because the man who said he raised 1t is one of the most veracious citizens of Norwich-and Norwich is noted for truth tellers of the first class.
 Whether this years growth, or last years growth. that potato comes from a great breed-and if the rest of his garden truck is as generous as that potato it will be all off with the coun- ty fair exhibit. Geer avenue does and will-take the whole bakery.

MICHAEL COHEN HELD
 FOR SUPERIOR COURT.
Bound Over Under $500 Bonds on the Charge of Perjury During Divorce Proeeedinqs.

In the city court on Friday morning Judge Brown gave his decision in the case of Michael Cohen, charged with perjury, which was heard in the city court Tuesday, and stated that he found sufficient cause for holding the accused for the next term of the crim- final superior court. The bonds, which had been S750, were made $500 and se- curity was furnished.
 The perjury, 1t is claimed, was com- mitted in a divorce case before the superior court, Judge Roraback, ip which the accused said he was a resi- dent of Colchester when it was shown that he had registered as voter in New York When this discrepancy was discovered the case was withdrawn, as the time necessary for desertion was not sufficient. He claims he came to Colchester in May, 1903. His wife op- poses the divorce and testified against him in the city court, although his sons testified for their father.

NEW PARK ROAD OPENED
Leads from Seventh Street and Boswell Avenue to Main
 Road Near the Lake-Mle of Footpaths to be Started

The effect of the recent copious rains is easily seen at the park in the luxuri- ance of the ferns at the present time, a point which no visitor at the present time can fail to notice. There are over 27 varieties of ferns found in Mohegan park The Charter Oak tree and the shrubs planted at the Rockwell street entrance this spring are all doing nicely.
 Next week work will be commenced on over a mile of footpaths which are to be built under the direction of Su- perintendent John Duff. The first foot path to be built will probably be in the neighborhood of the brook and extend to and possibly around the lake.
