EAST SIDE NOTES.

Contractor Mcmillan has completed
the erection of the ornamental posts
for the great white way along the
south side Of Front street, and the men
started operations on the north side
this afternoon. People are glad to see
the activity little bit more pro-
nounced, as they were getting nervous
that the new lighting system would
not be ready for the Fourth of July
celebration.
Miss Esther Smith has returned from
Perham for o brief visit.

MARKET COMMENT OF THE DAY
Grain Market.

Chicago, June 22.-Wheat: The
opening was very irregular but the
bulk of the trading was at a sharp
decline from closing prices. The whole
action of the market hinged on reports
Of rains in the northwest, and it seem
ed to be generally accepted that such
relief had come. AT noon message
from Minneapolis, containing the
weather bureau reports shows nothing
but scattered showers at two points in
Minnesota and one in North Dakota.
There were a few points in the Can
adian northwest which had local rains
but taking the belt as a whole reports
which we have show no general pre-
cipitation. The trade was very large
with commission house on both sides
of the market. Profit taking was in
order naturally on such large and
sudden upturn that has occurred since
Saturday. Kansas and Nebaska were
Saturday. Kansas and Nebraska were
by continued high temperatures. The
setback today was quite in order,
considering the rapid advance, but we
believe wheat is worth the money,
based on damage already done and We
have no reason to believe that condi-
tions have materially bettered in the
northwestern country,

Through The Forum, the informa-
ton that grasshoppers were creating
trouble at several points in Clay coun-
ty has reached the authorities of the
agricultural college and experiment
stations. Surprise is expressed that
the troubled farmers did not proceed
to pillow the affected lands without any
delay as that is the most effective
way of eradicating the pest, and un-
plowed sandy soil in the vicinity ought
to be broken. Through the medium
Of official bulletins the method OF
blowing has been emphasized as pos
sibly the best way to stop the increase
of 'hoppers and not only that but con-
siderable Roadway is made in the kill
ing OF weeds. An experienced farmer
from Iowa made the statement this
morning that unplowed lands were
great contributors to the hopper and
weed pest and the sooner the work was
done the better. It is said that con-
siderable blowing has been done in
Riverton township to stop the prog
ress of the grasshoppers.

Grain Opinions.

Bartlett, Patten & Co.: The adj
vance has been a rapid one but only
commensurate with the character of
the news. The readiustment of values
has been in a different direction from
that anticipated by many only short
time since 1t seems improbable that
anything but a very moderate total
crop of wheat is likely to be harvested
this year and if such proves the case
present prices are in no respect high.
In fact, we firmly believe they will
look very reasonable later on. We do
not care to follow the present adj
vance in corn. Would not buy oats on
this advance Of cents per bushel
within a week.
Finley, Darrell g. Co.: There is no
question but that the bulls will have
much the best Of the argument as
long as drouth continuec, but as short
interest has been well eliminated and
long interest materially increased we
rather feel that 1T will prove prudent
to accept at least a portion of your
profits as any change in climatic con-
ditions in the above section will I'M
doubtedly result in a sharp reaction,

Contractor Kennedy's forces are
pushing along the big undertaking of

zERRAs DRIVEN AS HORSES.
One of the Novel sights of Ringing
Brothers Street Parade,


| Zebras harnessed to a light buggy
and driven as horses, is one of the
novel sights that will be seen in the
parade to be given in Fargo on Thurs
| day, June 80, by Ringing Brothers
Worlds Greatest Shows. A team of
twenty camels hitched to a great
Egyptian chariot, also teams of ele-
phants, namas and deer are other
remarkable features.
For many years Ringing Brothers
have had the reputation of presenting
circus parade far more attractive
longer and costlier than those given
by other shows. This seasons street
display more than ever reflects the
genius and skill of the five shownen.
It's hundreds of floats. chariots, war
carriages howdahs, tableaux, throne
wagons cars, rickshaws, dens and
fairy art vans are hand-carved and
FURNISHED with pure gold. The $50
horses wear silver mounted harness.
The best of imported silks and broad
cloths were used in making the cos
TUNES. The countless flags and han
ners are expensive works of Japanese
art. The great herds of elephants and
camels are draped with Persian
blankets, The thrones are decorated
with the finest oriental rugs and ia
pestry.
A large menagerie is shown in open
dens and lairs. There are fifty bodies
of musicians. The ride in great band
chariots. on horses and in floating
pavilions. There are fine military
bands, quaint pipers. grand opera ball
let's. tomtom players. drum and bugle
corps, pipe organs. chanters. reed and
string orchestra chimes and calliopes.
There are people from a hundred ma
lions and tribes. Every phase of hui
man existence is shown. The parade
is an endless panorama of the sights
of the worlds kingdoms and savage
lands.
A portion of the parade is devoted
to the children. It tells in a long chain
of tableaux all the stories Of the
Arabian Nights in their proper Sc
quence. The various fairy floats.
pumpkin chariots, foauns gardens pal
aces, carriages of state and naval dis
plays are of the most gorgeous ma
terials. They are designed by the best
artists of Italy and France. Nearly.
1880 people, $50 horses, nearly all of
the elephants In America and great
desert caravans of richly laden canlels
and dromedaries are seen. A camp a
the Sahara is the subject of one of the
tableau groups. A replica of the iron
horse used as a ruse to enter the gates
of Troy is another spectacular dis
play. Exact and full-sized models Of
Columbus three boats are shown. and
there are models OF our modern men
of-war to compare them with.
Two performances will be given here.
They are far and best the Ringlings
have ever presented. The programme
contains more that is novel and strange
than ever before was crowded in a
dozen circus entertainments. New York
City declares this show to be the best
that was ever seen here. The Madison
Square garden was not large enough
to hold the crowds that sought adrnis-
sion. The performances here will be
the same in every detail as those given
in that city. The greatest circus event
in the history of Fargo is at hand.

TRACE IN FARGO.

There was a. little dew fell in Fargo
this morning. 1t could scarcely be
dignifed by the name of rain as only
four-hundreths of an inch fell. There
was slight fall all over the Red river
valley but the amount was infinitessi-
NAL except at Wahpeton where there
was a good rainfall. There was also
considerable moisture at Lisbon. None
fell at the station at Devils Lake and
only trace in the western part of the
state.
The barometric conditions which
had apparently been favorable to rain
for two days have been dissipated and
there is no immediate promise of a de-
luge.
Winnipeg had three-quarters of an
inch and Huron, S. D., had rain last
night. The Wahpeton shower extend
ed to Detroit where there was a heavy
rainfall.
