GRAND SPECTACULAR FEATURES
Numerous Thrllers Have Been Pro-
 vided for State Fair Visitors.

Negotiations are under way for fireworks spectacular show at night during the State Fair surpassing in grandeur and thrilling effect anything ever seen. in the state. It will repro duce in all its realistic effects the battle of Juarez in Mexico and the fall of that stronghold in the recent Mexican war. A scene of the city, gorgeously painted on canvas more than 200 feet in length, and wonder fully true to the original, will appear before the grandstand, with soldiers, senoritas and Greaser civilians ming ling in festivities just before the bat tie. Then suddenly all becomes ac- tivity, the attack is on and the fire and roar of conflict rages in fury, with the roar of cannon and musket- ry, the charging of troops, the bom- bardment of the Bull Ring, the blow ing up of the magazine and culmnat- ing in the fall of the fortress. More than two hundred people perform in this great show, which requires about one hour for each exhibition. This Is immediately followed by resplend- ent modern display of fireworks nev- CT excelled in magnificence.
 In addition to these, special day programs of public educational and convention character will accupy the morning of each day. The speed de- partment this year promises to far exceed all former occasions, with many of the best horses in harness and in running races in the state and the country at large on the track. In all respects, the State Fair this year will be a great event, and worth ten times the expense of attending and seeing. The railroads will give a one fare round trip rate. Write the sec retary of the fair for catalog and lit erature.

TEAM MWORk POPULAR.

It is to my mind a matter of profound significance that our col leges and universities betray such enthusiasm over team games. At these institutions one would expect the spirit of scholasticism to be dominant. One would suppose that the high prize of public admiration would be given to those who com- peted most successfully in scholar ship. 1 do not wish to minimize the honor of scholastic distinction or the rewards of those who win it, but wish to call attention to the fact that the man who will live longest in the hearts of his comrades is the man who. playing in team game, wins glory and renown for the college as whole. He does not win as bril- liant player, primarily, but as an organic part of the unit-the team. The individual record-breaker in running and jumping wins no such position in the hearts of his fellow students as the man who success fully leads a team to victory.-Lip- pincott's.

WRONG PLACE TO BUY MEAT
Absent M Inded Girl Is Distressed, but She Gave Joy to the
 Postal Clerks.

The absent-minded young woman emerged from the branch postoffice station with flushed face and met a friend at the corner. "Oh, Stella" she exclaimed, 'let me weep on your shoulder P
 "What's the matter this time ?"
 'You may well say this time I am always wondering if l have yet done the most awful thing possible in the world, or if the worst is yet to come. When l left home a few minutes ago 1 intended to do two errands. One was to buy some post age stamps and the other was-well, /, just now l walked up to the stamp window and said blandly to the clerk, Please give me a pound and a half of lamb chops Do you wonder that l want to cry? Could anything aGy tai2s be much worse? For tunately, the clerk knows me. Of course he grinned and said, Not here, Miss Wander. The butchers shops in the next block Of course he'll tell all the other clerks, and of course 1 can't blame them for laughing. If I could be sure that this experience would cure me l could bear it better" -
 Don't worry. Just think how much joy you have given the clerks. Count it contribution to the gayety of nations and season your lamb chops with it. They will taste bet ter and be more digestible than if watered with tears"

BLUEBERRiEs AND CLANS.

It is a far cry from clans to blue berries, but nevertheless they are pretty closely related to each other just at present. The clam supply is not over abundant now, and all be-
 SC the blueberries are ripening, There are many places down the bay where blueberries are to be secured. The men who ordinarily dig clans are picking the berries and making 6 good penny, so they do not give their attention to the bivalves. Portland Press.
