perhaps more than one, he had imbibed
considerably late Saturday night early
Sunday morning. Then with companion
he walked down Kansas avenue
AT 134 Kansas avenue some wagons
were standing on Second street and Ham
mel spied them. Arthur then recalled
the game he played when he was a kid
and told his companion to mount TO the
seat The companion did SO and down
Second street went Arthur, between the
shafts, trotting, kicking, jumping,
neighing like a horse and having all the
fun that a free born American citizen
with six drinks under his belt can have.
From the seat his companion waved
whip and shouted .'Giddap'' gIeefully- On
the side of the wagon was sign reading

NORTH SIDE NEWS.
And Now, How About Street
Fair?'' Is Asked.
Proposition May Be Considered
by Civic Club.
SEVERAL ENDURING.
Carnival Companies Want to
Show Here.
Former First Ward Fairs
Brought Big Crowds.
SEVERAL ENDURING.

"And now. how about a street fair
on the North side in the near future. -
This question is being asked by the
North side business men and is being
discussed by the members of the Civic
club.
Informal talks this morning devel-
oped the fact that the majority of the
First ward people were in favor of the
proposition and it is probable that the
matter will be taken UP at the next
meeting of the Civic club. Then it is
not unlikely that committees will be
appointed to investigate the PROPOSE
ton and to take steps toward securing
a good clean attraction for a stay of
week on the North side.
Such an affair has been successfully
carried out several times by the old
Civic club. The attendance at these
carnivals, in spite of the sometimes ad-
verse weather. has always been good.
Besides those from the North side.
from all over the city and country side.
And these street fairs. if properly
conducted, are the best kind of adver-
tisements for a city, both as to bring
ing residents and business firms.
Taking into consideration the sue
cess of the former fairs and the in
creased membership and interest of
the present Civic club which will like
ly push the proposition, it is thought
that another like undertaking, if en-
Enthusiastically and carefully managed,
when brought here, will be the most
successful of its kind that Topeka has
ever seen.
Fred o. Morns, former president of
the old club and an active member of
the present organization, has received
several letters from different carnival
companies asking about their coming
here. Among them is the Cosmopoli-
tan company, which showed on the
North side a few years ago. These
communications will likely be conSid
cred at the next meeting of the club.
The amount of injury to fruit caused
by the present cold spell to the farm
ers in the vicinity of the North side is
yet an unknown quantity. However, it
is probable that considerable damage
has been done to the cherries and
Several say that the
peaches are not hurt. AT the Arthur
Parsons place it is said that the cher
ries and Strawberries may be killed,
but that the peaches are not affected.
A. L. Brooks, near Granville, said that
the apples, pears and peaches were not
killed, but that the strawberries and
cherries were blasted.
