Cold Water, However, Forces Man
Who Held Up Bank to Yield to
Sheriff's Posse.

Portland, Ore-A lone robber who
entered the First State Bank of Mil
waukee, a suburb of Portland, and
with a revolver induced c. shier A. L.
Bolstead to permit him to scoop up
all the gold within reach of the lat
ter's wicket, was captured in the
woods some miles distant. He gave
the name of Virgil Perrine, and said
he was from st. Louis, He is twenty
years old.
After fleeing from the bank, with
citizens in pursuit, the robber on gain
ing the wood, hid himself by standing
submerged to the neck in an incased
spring. He remained there for two
hours until the chill of the water
drove him from the hiding place into
the hands of a sheriff's posse
The robbers loot, about $500 in gold,
was found in his pockets, with the ex-
ception of $40 he dropped in his flight.

$4,000 SADDLE HORSE STAKE
BANNER FEATURE KY. STATE FAIR
Seventeen Blue Blooded Equine Monarchs
Have Been Entered In This Contest for
Rich Prizes at the Big Louisville Show
In September

Especial -Seventeen royalty bred
"Monarchs of the Equine World" are
to be pitted against each other in the
great $4,000 Commissioner >of Agricul-
ture Stake for fve-gaited saddle
horses, which will be the banner event
of the Kentucky State Fair, to be held
in Louisville, September 1920, accord
ing to the list of entries which closed
on July /.
The premium is the highest ever Of
fered in contest of this kind, and has
attracted the most important owners
and exhibitors of the country. The
$4,000 stake is divided into seven diff
ferent prizes, and one of the conditions
of the contest being that the entry
money for all over Is contests shall
be added to the first premium, makes
this enticing prize figure up to $3.50.
The honor of being Sin the money" at
all in this stake is one coveted by the
leading owners and exhibitors of blue
blooded stock in the country, and the
struggle for supremacy among the sew
enteen is destined to be formidable
one.
The roster as it stands for 1913 in
cludes p. w. Ray & Son, of Bowling
Green, KY, who will probably fight for
first prize with Black Whirlwind, a
contestant, who is truly dark
horse" being totally unknown to ring
frequenters, but who is reputed as
formidable as it's name. Mat S. Co.
hen, of Lexington, KY, will very likely
enter the celebrated Mary Yandell Fox,
who took third prize last year for her
proud owner, Mrs. Richard Powers, of
Danville, Ky.
J. T. Collins & Son, of North Middle
town, KY, will enter a horse never
shown heretofore.

MANY SPLENDID FEATURES
BOOKED.

The greatest agricultural, live stock
and educational event in the South is
the Kentucky State Fair, the eleventh
annual celebration of which will be
held in Louisville, September 1920
next during the most beautiful and al
Turing season of the entire year.
At this exhibition will be shown
products of the mine, the forest, the
workshop and the factory, and the
rarest examples of cultivated flowers,
plants, art work, needle work, county
school exhibits, a model dairy and
many other entertaining and instruc-
tive features.
The new features introduced for the
years fair will include the Kentucky
State Fair Futurity for saddle bred
foals of 1913, an event equal in i'm.
portance and dignity to the great rae
ing futurities on the thoroughbred and
trotting turf.
In addition to these there are three
special saddle horse stakes, nomina-
ton to which closed April Is, with the
most creditable list of entrants that
have ever been recorded for a like
event. Horse racing, always attractive
and pleasing to the fair going public
will be on a bigger scale than ever be
fore. Recognizing the popularity OF
this sport as well as the value of the
branch of horse breeding business il
represents, the State Fair management
has offered four 81 900 stakes for this
years meeting. There will be four
teen other harness events and two OF
three running races every day. A:
the fair precedes the fall race at Doug
las Park, some of the crack runners il
training at the local tracks will doubt
less compete in these races.
There will be free attractions too
numerous to mention, but sufficient Il
give visitors to the Fair a constan
round of novel and attractive enter
tainment.

ter, KY, have taken two entries and
will likely make a strong bid for first
honor with Hazel Dawn, the beautiful
winner of the 1912 prize, and the great
gelding Jack Barrymore.
Powhatan Woodbridge, Pewee Valley,
KY, has also doubled his chances and
it is surmised that he will enter a very
fine saddle mare and his celebrated
Richlieu King.
w. S. Nicol, WOODBURY., KY, will
come in with an unknown, as will
Thurman & Peters, of Springfield, KY
R. F. Moreland, Lexington, KY, will
more than likely choose as his entry
a full brother to the celebrated Nickel
Plate, and Ball Brothers, of Versailles
have several likely prospects, among
the number being the great Sadie
Macy.
James Green, of Louisville, KY, will
show the bay stallion, Happy Chief

Chief.
H. C.. Barham, Milan, Tenn, prom
ises to uncover horse new to the
wiseacres of the ring.
The entry of A G. Jones, North Mid

but it is supposed he will show either
the Princess V. or Marvel King, broth
er to the noted stallion Bourbon King
Miss Lulu Long, of Longview Farm,
Lees Summit, Mo-, has entered My
Major Dare, the splendid $4,000
beauty which she purchased last year
after he won the fifth premium in the
1912 Kentucky State Fair Stakes.
Allen R. Edelen, of Burgin, KY, will
in all probability show a promising
daughter of Bohemian King, and Gen.
John B. Castleman, of Louisville
either his famous Carolina or Margue
rita.

BERKSHIRE CONGRESS
VIII Be Held in Connection With the
Kentucky State Fair-Nine Ribbons
Will BE Offered in Each Class and
Some Snowy Herds Are Assured.

AS an example Of the repute won
by the constantly enlarged and inn
proved Kentucky State Fair celebra-
ton may be mentioned the fact that
Kentucky has captured the American
Berkshire Show for 1913, and this ex-
hibition will be held at the fair
grounds, in Louisville, during the com
ing celebration.
This national Berkshire exhibition
is authorized by the American Berk-
shire Record Association, and is an
event held from year to year at some
leading state fair, the location being
selected with a view to most generally
benefitting the Berkshire breed, and
it is decidedly pleasing feather in the
cap of Kentuckians that Kentucky was
voted the next congress in preference
to Illinois, which has heretofore rank
ed as the state pre-eminent in adj
vantages to the showing of swine of
all breeds, and of Berkshires in par.
ticular. In fact, Chicago has always
been regarded as a Mecca for the great
swine herds of the country.
! The prizes offered in the Berkshire
contest total up 70 $1,4OO, the sum of
$500 having been contributed by the
American Berkshire Association. a like
amount by the Kentucky State Fair
management, while the balance was
donated by those interested in the de-
velopment of the Berkshire hog. All
the leading Berkshire show herds of
the country Will enter for exhibition,
and there will be two beautiful trophies
| offered by the American Berkshire
Association, one for Kentucky exhib-
itors and one open to the world For
years the association trophy has been
| much coveted honor among exhib-
itors at the leading fairs and shows
of the country, and it is a foregone
conclusion that the prominence of
Kentucky as live stock state and the
eXtensiveness of the fair exhibition
will key the interest in this handsome
i prize up to the very highest tension
There will be nine ribbons offered
in each class, and the premium money
is so distributed that any exhibitor
with only few good hogs is assured
of making his expenses
| The Berkshire Congress and Swine
Show will be held in the beautiful new
judging pavilion erected last year, the
building being model Of convenience
and perfect in arrangement 1t affords
every advantage to exhibitor and spec
tator alike, and it is expected that
every loyal follower of the Berkshire
will flock from every part Of the Uni
ted States to do homage to this peer
! less breed.
Both in point Of numbers as we'll as
lin general excellence it is expected that
the Berkshire Congress at the coming
Kentucky State Fair will excel the ex
hibits of the great International Expo
/ sition in Chicago.
I There will also be splendid classes
OF Poland China, Duroc Jerseys, Tam
! worths and Hampshire hogs in addi
ton to the Berkshire exhibits.
