The Birds Are an Asset.

Taken as a general proposition
there are very few birds but what
protect and preserve a great deal
more than they destroy, says the
Ottumwa Courier. Some of them
eat a few cherries and other fruit,
but in return for that they destroy
thousands of insects that would con-
sumo great deal more than they
do. Thus, it will be seen that all ef-
forts that can be, should be made
to protect the birds from being kill
ed. Feed them in the winter and
provide places for them to build their
nests and raise their young in the
summer.

Circus Drew Big Crowd.

Sparks Bros. circus drew a big
crowd to DEBORAH Monday The
show was clean throughout, no graft.
ing of any kind was tolerated and
everybody enjoyed themselves i'm
mensely. While the circus is not as
large as many that has visited De-
corah in the past, nevertheless the
performances and parade were very
creditable, and everybody felt that
they got their moneys worth. And
besides the circus doing a nice bust
ness, all our business men enjoyed
a nice trade. In the afternoon sever.
al thousand people packed the tent
and standing room was at a premi-
UNI. In the evening the tent was
over two-thirds filed The circus

Was an Elephant Man.

Z IL. II. Nichols of this scity states
that he used to travel with the Lem
on Bros Circus some fifteen years
ago, and at that time they owned
the big elephant "Jute," which was
here Monday with the Sparks Circus,
and he took care of the animal. In
the parade Monday Mr.. Nichols call
ed the animal by name, and the
keeper had hard time keeping him
in line. He is perhaps 20 years old,
and is an inch higher and weighs 500
pounds more than Jumbo-so we
are told, but we never weighed eth
er one of them.

We Take il Back,

Last week we stated that the old
time league base ball players of De-
corah were defeated by a score of
10 TO IL. But We are told there
was nothing to it, and that the old
timers were rightfully and honestly
entitled to the long end of the score.
Well, after looking over the follow
ing lineup, Ben Keefe, c; Charley
Bloomfield, p; T. j. Qualley, 1st. !;
Ole Marsh, End; G. F. Baker, 3D.. !;
Chas. Marsh, S.; E. R. Haines, IT, !;
B. B. Morss, CT. and DR. Conover, rf /;
we concluded that no other team on
the face of the earth could beat such
lineup, and we are willing to give
them the game. We understand that
scout from the New York Giants
was here last week looking over
some of the material. But he didn't
isay whether he wanted them TO play
ball or not.
