MAcKEY SAYS SUICIDE"


u. s. Marshal W.. II. Mackey was
in the city yesterday and spent soIhs
time in conference with County At
torney Rugh and Sheriff Young in
regard to steps that may be taken
toward the apprehension Of the slayer
Of Bertha Benignus. AT the request
OF the county attorney, Mr.. Mackey
reviewed all the evidence in the case
leading up 10 the verdict oI murder
recently returned by the coroner's
jury. His conclusion however. diff
fered from that Of the Jury. He be-
lieves that Beta Benignus met death
at her own hands.
"If 1t is murder" Mr.. Mackey said
yesterday, there Is nothing you can
do except wait for somebody to leak
If the girl did not commit suicide.
the manner Of her death Il known to
the guilty party, and probably there
are others who could furnish Import
ant information il they would. The
only course to follow is to wait until
something ls said that will give ac-
cess to the source Of that informa-
tion."

Fine Flower Exhibit.

The flower exhibit this year has
been made especially interesting by
the loan OF several rare varieties Of
plants not included in the premium
list. Mrs. A. w. Rice, superintend-
ent, has given careful attention to
her department, which is better than
in any previous year since the organ
ization OF the present fair associa-
ton. Mrs. T. NJ, Jones loaned q
jasmine and hydrangea, and 9
large palm furnished by Arthur Mill
er Of the Miller greenhouse, deserves
especial mention. Names of others
who loaned plants or furnished cut
flowers to the flower department
are: Mesdames Lenze c. A. Cole.
Swanson, Monroe, Geo. Anderson,
and Rowland. The display Of cocks
combs is particularly fine, one Of the
largest being shown in the Tufts 4

From Saturdays Daily.l

With the automobile races this af'
ternoon ended the best year, In point
OF exhibits and attractions, which the
Dickinson County Fair has ever
known. Fine displays, many entries,
a program covering four days instead
Of three, free exhibition every day
By the Carver show--these are some
Of the features which have been dis
tinctive Of this year.
Financially, the fair has been a
success, though the figures will not
I quite reach the high water mark Of
eiast year. Thursdays paid attend
ance was about 2S0O, yesterday .
about $500. as against $500 and
4lOO respectively for the correspond
ing days last year. Total receipts
last year from all sources. including
concessions were $4,000. This year
they will come to about $500. Still.
the fair management is on the whole
well pleased with the results. Com
pIete returnsyinay bring up the totals
somewhat. The attendance yester-
day, paid and unpaid, is estimated at
something over seven thousand.
Race called OFF.
A slight misunderstanding yester-
day between the fair management and
some Of the race track people result
ed in the abandonment of the far
mers race, which was scheduled ag
third on the program. Just before
the races were called, it was found
that several Of the track horses COM
peting in the professional" class had
been entered for the race, This was
regarded as unfair competition by
the management who took the posi-
tion that young farmer with mere7
" a good driver, which he trained
and drove himself, stood no chance
in such company. After many pro-
tests from. the professionals the race
Eas called off.
An amusing accident during the
free-for-all pace yesterday, came near
putting one horse, Star" driven by
Al Wells Of Home City, out of run
ming. The horse was hobbled, and,
getting its feet tangled, slipped and
fell. The sulky was overturned, and
tle driver thrown out, but no injury
was done, either to horse, man or
vehicle. They were on hand in the
next heat. Following are summaries

superintendent many tempting pro-

ed among real works Of art. justifying
the phrase which someone has 80 apt
" applied to it, painting with the

The fine arts department Of which
Mrs. J. w. Haptonstall was superin-
tendent, contained pictures Of real
merit. Watercolors were among the
best exhibits.
People who have tried to grow Bur-
banks "Wonderberry," with little
success. should have seen the potted
specimen Of this peculiar plant ex-

stalks were three or four feet high,
and loaded down with berries, which
sate about the size Of a raspberry.
sThey are said to be excellent for pies
and preserves. IKE
OF interest among the outside ex-
hibits was the Equity grain bin, made
and shown by the Abilene Mfg. Co.,
and said to be one Of the best corn
shelterers on the market.
The live stock section this year was
excellent in all departments. Many
fine cattle, hogs, sheep and horses
were exhibited.

the races yesterday, we're watched

crowd. 1t is safe to say that this
leap in mid-air from a forty-foot
platform by horse and rider is one
OF the most thrilling and sensation
al acts ever witnessed here. They
seem to understand their part per-
fectly. They required no punish
ment, and but little urging, to induce
them to spring from the edge Of
their lofty platform. The attend

the general complaints from Canadian

A merchant does not order goods for

promptly, Every day is important, and
if he sees that the traveller and the
house are cooperating to speedily sup
ply the goods he will give nRat trav-
eler ali the orders possible. It Is to his
interest to do so. especially at pres
ent. as dealers are not carrying over
heavy stocks, preferring to buy more
from hand 20 mouth than formerly.
Most travellers send OF their orders
