ed for one week beginning Sunday

The deacons and trustees of the

closed a contract with him that the
children and others who do not often
have the privilege of hearing chau-
tauqua programs might have the ben
eft of these entertaining lectures.
On Sunday night, DR.. Dinger's sub
ject will be, THE Man of GaIilee,''
and on Monday evening, 1.-The Nor
Wester.'' The Nor Wester,'' is a
gloon killer Those who attend
once will come again. This is not a
money-raising scheme. There is no
financial profit in it for the church
or any other organization. A free will
offering will be taken at the close of
the week night lectures. There will be
no urging for those who ordinarily
cannot afford a fifty-eent admission
fee. Those who do not contribute will
be as welcome as others.

Fair association is making an effort 20
set together the greatest display of ag
ricultural products. While some of the
conditions last year We're considered
rather severe, the fair management Is
also interested in as clean, wholesome
and tidy an appearance on it's conces-
sion streets as it is possible to have,
and will cooperate with the health
officers to make the fair grounds not
only a healthful but a pleasant place
for the most exacting germtheorist 70
visit. Perfect sanitation of the grounds
ard buildings will be insisted upon, and
the superintendent, Hugh A. Benner.
will see to it that the laws laid down
are enforced.
Out of Town Work.
A most important adjunct IF any
fair is it's transportation superiatchd
ert. This officer can make or unmaHe
d fair by his treatment of the cut Of
town exhibitor. In securing ]. A. Lett
who has been retained in that capacity
by the Kansas State Fair manage
nent for this year an energetic aid
experienced railroad freight man, the
Zig Topeka fair has been most tortu-
rate.
On the job from the time exhibite
begin to arrive until every car has
been loaded and switched out Of the
grounds, he last year made f1iendk
for the fair and won the esteem of
tIIe eAUlDiLOTS anu the TdllTOdOS- I1G
saved all the worry incident to trac-
ing shipments, ordering cars switched
seeing that everybody got what they
wanted from the transportation dno
transfer companies and got II when
they wanted it.
By his executive ability he ironed
out the ruffled tempers, even in mud
dy weather, and the exhibitors gave
him credit for the zeal displayed in
endeavors to make their reception
and leavetaking pleasant under all
circumstances. Ninety odd cars were
switched into and out of the grounds
during the week without a hitch or
bobble.
Nothing exasperates a shipper quite
so much as to have delays or trouble
in getting to and from fair grounds.
He has dates to fill and in many cases
forfeits his rights to premiums if he
does not make a fair on time. One
of last years exhibitors said of the
transportation superintendent: THAT
man Lott is whole section, and ]
have seen lots of men who have cast
their lots along the same lines that
would not measure up with him by
several city lots"

NEW KANSAS INTERURBAN.
Farmers Donate Right of Way, Hal
stead to Hutchinson

Halstead. Kan, June 29.-J. A.
Hopkins reports material progress in
the matter of securing the right of
way along the Santa Fe tracks for the
interurban line which is soon to ex-
tend its tracks from Halstead to
Hutchinson.
A number of farmers owning land
which will be needed by the company
have already donated the right of way
and but very few more tracts are need
ed to complete the strip of land be-
tween here and Burton.
There has been such p ogress made
that there will be no stop III the pro-
gram of building west and if negotia-
lions fail with the remaining land own
ers, proceedings will be commenced
in the courts to secure the right of
way as needed by the company.
When this line is extended to the
west, Halstead will be on the main line
and have hourly service. while New
tor will be on the branch. 1t now
looks as though there was no inten-
ton of extending the line northward
to Moundridge.

Erie, June 29.-The mysterious person
who has been peeping into the windows
CT various residences in this city during
the past week, has given the victims of
his peeping new cause for anxiety.
1t has been discovered that in ma
jority of the houses which were entered
last week, articles of a peculiar nature
were taken. 1t was supposed that moth
ing had been stolen, until one young
lady missed a pack of letters. Her dis
covery soon led to the fact that several
persons had lost their pictures or let
ters, sometimes both. In every instance
the loser was a young girl. The loss
of these letters and other trinkets are
attributed to the person who has been
lurking about the houses.
