Scotch Sheep Dogs
Arrive In New York

The wonderful Scotch sheep dogs to
be demonstrated at the South Dakota
State Fair have arrived at New York.
and will soon be shipped westward.
The sheep dog trials bid fair to at
tract as much attentiod in this count
ry as in foreign lands. Each dog will
drive herd of native Dakota sheep
over a given course on the grounds
within given number of minutes.
Each will perform in turn and be
Judged on points.
The feature has been brought over
from Scotland at great expense. 1t
was difficult matter to secure them
at all, on account of their popularity
in Europe, and the large list of en-
gagement demanding their attention
at home.
Concerning the great interest in
these dogs, the Edinburgh Daily
Scotsman of July 14th says: 1T has
remained tor the United States of
America to entice away two leading
exponents of the highest class of
sheep dog working and their wonder
fully trained dogs, to give two
months tour and exposition of their
art at the leading state shows and
fairs. f. American visitors who
have seen the marvellous power dis
played at such trials as the Interna-
tional Championship Competition,
when only prize winners at local
shows were allowed to compete, are
on tiptoe of expectation and have
wrought up enthusiasm to great
pitch in the states"
These dogs will give their exhibit
tions at only the great state fairs, in
cluding Iowa, Minnesota and South
Dakota. This puts our fair on the
map with the greatest in the country,
and every South Dakotan should be
on hand at the fair to see this one of
the greatest demonstrations at the
fairs of Europe.

By the way, have you been keeping
track of the wonderful feats which
have been performed by the Curtiss
flyers during the recent aviation meet
in Chicago? If so you are aware OF
the extraordinary attraction to be
offered this year at the state fair,
when the Curtiss aeroplane will make
daily flights from the aviation field in
front of the huge grand stands. These
flights will consist of racing an auto,
flying for heighth, for speed, etc.
The aviator will soar high in the air
in circles. and with a hair raising
swoop will descend to the starting
point. Edison, the great inventor,
said that in twenty years aerial nayi-
CATION will be firmly established and
on practical working basis. Here
is real opportunity to see future To-
comotion in the making. Our grand
fathers witnessed the origin and early
growth of steam power; it is now our
privilege to see the beginning and
evolution of air craft.

Mollusc" Company in which Mr. Bel
lew was playing.
In addition to his successes as a
romantic actor, Mr. Bellew was

being the chaplain of Calcutta Cathe-
dral. For seven years he was a ca

his stage debut at the Theatre Royal
in Brighton, England, in the early
eighties. He came to America as
leading man at Wallacks Theatre,
New York. Later he became co-star
with Mrs. James Brown Potter in
Shakespearean repertoire, completing
with her tour that embraced all the

In 1900 he again felt the call Of
adventure and headed an expedition

the stage in 1902 at the head of his
own company.
His work as an explorer gained
him a fellowship in the Royal Geo
