RADE-ANOTHER BIG SHOW TO.
NIGHT.
The final rehearsal was given at the
show grounds of the Cooper Bros.
Wild West show last night, and all
the features Of that aggregation were
well rendered. The proprietors have
given their undivided attention to
making the show the best that it is
possible to make 1t, and their efforts
have been crowned with a marked de-
gree of success. The proprietors have
secured the services of Mr.. A. A.
West for manager of the permorm-
ance, and, with the able assistance of
Mace and Mccoy, the program was
we'll carried out. The work of the
rough riders and the fancy rope twirl-
ing and lasslng is certainly as good
as any we have ever seen, not except
ing the work done at Col. Cody great
show. In fact several of those taking
part with Cooper's show were with
Buffalo Bills show during the tour of
that great show. The COW girls are
worthy of especial mention, as they
are certainly very clever riders,
Among them is Mrs. West, Mrs. Mace,
Minnie Richardson and Cuba Crutch-
field. Miss Crutchfield is also very
clever in the use of the lasso, and
challenges the world in that line
A game of pushball is one Of the es-
pecial features Of the performance, in
which the players enter with a great
deal of vim and enthusiasm, and, we
believe, it is as good as any of that
sport that has been seen here. The
performers are all very ladylike and
gentlemanly, which speaks great
deal for the show, and, during their
stay here for the past two months,
during which time the show was be-
ing organized, they have made a host
of friends. Two performances will be
given today, one this afternoon and
one this evening,

THINK HOPS
WILL JUMP up
TO 70 CENTS

That there is scarcity in the hop
market, and that by May buyers will
give from 60 to rs cents per pound
for the hops remaining in the state
from last year is the prediction made
by hop men in the city.
Within the last few days offers of
3Sh cents have been made, but there
have been no sales. There are about
1000 bales of hops left in the state
from last year. 1t is predicted that
the scarcity of hops is so great that
buyers must have them. In view of
this, it is contended that the market
will rise by leaps and bounds in the
next few days.

solve 1t Begun at Wash
ington Today.
National News Association

WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.-The hear
ing today in the governments suit to
dissolve the steel corporation before
Examiner James Brown was begun to-
day with the testimony of Francis
Walker, deputy commissioner of cor
porations.
DR.. Walker said he had studied con-
ditions in Germany, paying attention
to coal and iron combinations in that
country for more than a year. After
commenting on the length of time it
has taken the bureau of corporations
to investigate the steel trust Attorney
Lindabury objected to each of the
thirty-four tables of prices submitted
by the government.
DR.. Walker in submitting the tables
explained that all prices on iron ore,
steel and iron products had been OBJ
tanned from the reports of the Ameri-
can Wire and Steel association, or a
trade periodical, known as the Iron
Age.
Mr.. Lindabury objected to the ia.
bles on the grounds that they were
based on heresay evidence and are
prevalent, incompetent, immaterial
and impertinent. Attorney Dickinson,
representing the government, made
an argument in favor of admission OF
the tables as evidence.

SUSPECT BROWN OF
BEING A FUGITIVE
Descriptions of Man Without
a Name Sent to Police
Authorities.

Is the man confined in the insane
ward at the county Jail suffering from
an attack of aphasia?
This question is being asked by
county officials. The man who has
been given a number of names today
declared that his real name is Frank
Brown. He was arrested about IL
o'clock Sunday night, November 10,
at the home of Jesse Brown, on the
Arba pike. At the time he was ar.
rested, it Is alleged he was threatening
members of the Brown family with
death, chasing them about the house
with a razor.
Brown, when seen today declared
that he had not threatened to take
any ones life. However, from ans
wers he made to questions put to him
It was believed that he is either suf-
fer1ng from aphasia, or Is feigning
such.
The man declared that he cannot
remember who his parents were; that
he left home when he was fifteen
years old; that he does not exactly re-
member where he was born; that he
believes he has brother and cousin,
but has not seen either for more than
nine years.
Sheriff Steen stated today that the
mans picture had been taken and that
- soon as 1t can be printed on circu-
lars, the photograph will be placed in
the hands of police in every city OF
any size in this section of the country.
It is the belief of the authorities that
Brown may be wanted for Jail deliv-
cry and that he Is feigning insanity.
Since his confinement in the in
sane ward at the JAIL the mysterious
man has created no disturbance, and
at times talks in a sane vein. At 9TH
er times he Is rather irrational in his
conversation.
When arrested he gave a number
of names, among them being Frank
Carey" Today he declared that he had
given no other name than his own
frank Brown"
Brown" will be held pending an in
vestigation by the authorities.
