TRICK ANIMALS.
Sometimes the Trainer Has TO Do His
Work Quickly.

Sometimes the Trainer Has TO Do His
Work Quickly.
'You wouldn't believe how fast you
have to work to train an animal" said
the man who has broken everything
from elephants to geese the other day.
"Why. can tell just how many hours
it is going to take to break in any
kind of animal you might mention.
"A woman came to me the other day
and said: 1 want trained goose for
my magic act How much will you
charge me to break oneY
''SiXty dollars said l.
"'Well, how do you figure that outT
she asked.
why. it's very SIMPLE said. It's
81 an hour, and it will take me just
sixty hours
'Yes. sir: can train a goose--that
is. to follow me around and do some
simple tricks-in sixty hours. pig IN
thirty hours. and so on. But as for
peafowl and a guinea hen-they
can't be trained in a hundred years.
Now, you take a troupe of trained
dogs. That doesn't take half as long
to do as people suppose. No. sir: a
man with an animal show has got to
work fast. Why. maybe the boss
comes around OH Monday morning
and says: 'Here-here's a bunch of
six dogs. Now make an act out Of it
for next Mondays show
There are six green dogs to make
into a troupe in week. Can't be
done, you say? Sure. it can! One
dog-one trick-one day. That's the
principle, and you can do it too. Each
dog will learn trick each day all
right. One will learn back somer-
sault, one a front somersault, one to
walk on his hind legs. one on his front
legs, one to roll over. and so on. Then
by the end of the week you've got a
nice little act. and all the people are
acclaiming about your years Of pa
tience and that sort of stuff. Patience
is a good thing. of course. but the
secret is just know how that's all"

District Court In Session.

The district Court convened on Mon
day, Judge Thornell presiding. The
grand jury brought an Indictment
against Joe Paulausky for breaking and
entering, but as he is considered of
weak mind, he was sent to Glenwood
J. M. Harmon, who was indicted for
swearing falsely in obtaining a marriage
license for Henry s. Fiscus and Christine
Degen was admitted to bail. The
grand jury examined the Courthouse
and Jail and recommended that the in
side of the jail be painted white. Other
wise both were reported in good condi-
ton. Much of the time has been oc-
cupied with probate matters. The case
of Hensley and Santee against the Rock
Island has been continued. 1t is expect
ed that Court will adjourn on Saturday.

Tellinn Enns.

The problem of feelings eggs is not
an easy one by any means. Very few
of us know how to do, it properly. On
the other hand. there are those who
think they should not be told at all.
but that is old fashioned nonsense. in
spired entirely by false modesty. 1t
is safe to say that eggs should be told
at as early an age as possible consist
ent with their temperament. If al
lowed to 20 too long there is grave
danger that the egg will become bad.
and when an egg becomes bad it is
hopeless. The world is full of bad
eggs which might have been saved if
they had been told in time.-Lippin-

Foot Ball At Logan

The high school boys went over to
Logan Saturday, and were defeated in
good game of foot ball by score of
% to o. The game was really more
close than what the score shows as Lo-
gan made most of it's gains on long runs
after fake plays. One touch down came
as result of an intercepted forward
pass, and a Logan man ran almost the
entire length of the field with the ball.
The boys feel rather satisfied with the
game as the Saturday before Logan had
defeated Council Bluffs by score of 81
to 0. Woodbine and Harlan were de-
feated by scores of Sc and Al to 0 re-
spectively.
The game as a whole was very pleas
ant one The Logan team and manage
ment were very courteous and gave the
boys fine treatment. The local lineup
for the game was as follows:

A GOOD PONDER

A few weeks ago the Register and
Leader, bordering upon the conduct of
Col. Roosevelt, expressed the thought
that maby he was assuming the lead
of the progressive cause for the purpose

a good ponder. The progressives have
arrived home. And now let us fall to
and lick the stutfin out of the demo-

Coming November Ind.

There is a growing and widespread
demand throughout the country for
clean, wholesome, entertainment. En-
tertainment that amuses without giving
otfense. 1t was to satisfy this demand
that The Hyperion Trio that comes to
the opera house on Wednesday, Novem-

this clever and versatile little company

munities that they have thus far visited
have given them liberal patronage and

ROME AGAINST ROOSEVELT.

a great deal Of conjecture has been
INDUCED IN regarding the Roosevelt
Vatican incident. II has been OK
planned that no one who goes 10 the
Quirina first can obtain an audience nj
the Vatican except by observing certain
formalities; also that Mr. Roosevelt
could not be received unless he would
give certain promises regarding his
movements while in Rome. Cardinal
Merry del Val is quoted as having said
that MIR. Roosevelt might have gone
90 an Episcopalian, q Presbyterian. or
any other church. except a Methodist.
and delivered an address there, and
he would have been received by the
pope, even on the same day. But he
could not be received when il was sus-
pected that after the audience he in
