iii front of the Commercial hotel
and severely injured. His left
shoulder is broken and his left hip
is badly bruised. DR." West at

the reporter at noon that the horse

the bucking fit. He was riding the
horse with a rope around his neck,
instead OF a bride. and the saddle
had been ridden by a woman and
the stirrups were too short for him.

DR.. Mature, director of the

declares that the hottest weather
for the past FIVE years will be
expe rienced this summer.
He points out that from 1906 to
1910 there has been a most marked
depression in the temperature. but
this is not unprecedented. Similar
weather phenomena have occurred
many times during the past CEN
fury, the most memorable period
being from 1856 to 1890. These
periods were invariably followed
by extremes in heat and DR..

which took for its text the doctrine
of popular prices. ard although
most Of the old time circus people
voiced their opinion that they
could not possibly succeed, IL is now
admitted that they cane home at
the close Of the regular season with
more money in their treasury than
any other attraction in the same
line of business.
