DOGS AND PONIES
ARRIVE IN BOISE.
Gentry's Clever Show Here
for Afternoon and Even
ing Performances.

Gentry Brothers famous dog and
pony circus, with it's wonderful collec-
ton of trained animals including a
score of celebrated monkey comedi-
ans" so dear to the heart of every
youngster in the land, arrived in Boise
yesterday in special train from Ba-
ker, Ore, and, beginning this after
noon, will give two performances at
the corner of Main and Seventeenth
streets.
It has been seven or eight years
since the Gentry shows exhibited in
Boise, and every youngster in town is
hungry for a sigh of the wonderful
dogs, the comical monkey comedians
and the beautiful thoroughbred Shet-
land ponies. every one of which has
been taught to do tricks for the espe-
cial instruction and entertainment Of
the little folks.
This show, while known throughout
the country as a dog and pony circus,
carries many high class gymnasts, ac-
robats, wire walkers and other human
performers.
No other show. big or little has half
the hold upon the hearts of the little
folks that the Gentry shows have, and
it will be many long day before an
other amusement enterprise will ever
be able to trespass upon Its particular
field of operation
Just as long as there are kids just
SO long will there by a demand for
the Gentry shows, and regardless of
how many new amusements are offer
ed, none of them will ever take the
place of the dog and noies, the monkey
comedians and other features which
have become traditional in connection
with the Gentry shows.
No street parade was given on ac-
count of the fact that the animal ac-
tors can and do give a much better
performance when they are not re-
CURED to tire themselves out by pa
rading for an hour and half
The Gentry shows have concentrated
all their energies in assembling a two
hourc entertainment that is of the
highest quality, says the management.
The program contains everything from
vaudeville to a monkey comic opera, in
which the Simian actors display talent
that Is amazing.

LOCAL MARKETS.

Peaches lead in the fruit receipts on
the market today and this weeks re-
ceipts will be heavy and the price rea-
sonable One retail dealer has pur-
chased a car for delivery Wednesday
and announces they will sell at SIS cents

big shipments purchased for delivery
during the week Tomatoes are also
getting plentiful and dealers are now
paying three cents per pound and SELL
ing at five cents. Sugar is quiet, the
price holding at IS per hundred with
but limited amount moving. There
is a feeling among some merchants
that it will drop in price again within
a few days. The livestock market was

Kansas City Livestock.
(By J. A. Rickart.)


Kansas City Stockyards, Aug 22.-
Cattle receipts have been larger this
week than heretofore, and other mar
kets have shown expansion in their
supply, with the result that prices are
slightly lower for the week. Prime
cattle show no loss and buyers APP
pear to want them. A new high price
for this year was paid this week, $1,000,
paid both Tuesday and Wednesday
Fleshy grass native steers got some
competition from Illinois feeder buyers,
although tight money Is restricting
purchases of stockers and feeders to
some extent. These men paid $50
to $S.I5 for steers this week Stock
cattle are lower last two or three
days, and the follower will lie larger
than usual Saturday night Butcher
grades have sold we'll this week, and
Gamer material is in demand Re-
ceipts in the quarantine division have
been moderate, and quality has been
pretty common since Tuesday. Good
Oklahoma grass steers sell at $3.50 to
$7.25, some medium cake fed steers this
week at $40, and a great number of
common cattle, some Of them Louis-
anas grazed in Oklahoma, at $5.25 to
$6.25. Kansas pasture cattle have
ranged from s7.75 to 1926 largely. A
string of Texas steers brought to Kan
sas this spring sold at $780, 1887
pounds average. AS soon as the wheat
crop moves, and releases some of the
money now tied up, there will be more
competition from feeder buyers on
middle great steers, and a better mar
ket. Hogs are fluctuating from day to
day. Needs of packers are plainly
seen, and order buyers take a good
proportion of the supply. The market
is &c to 15c lower today, worst at the
close, with packers in one of their
worst moods. Top today is $3.50. bulk
of sales $500 to 1926. Bulk Of sales
here has been higher than bulk at Chi
cago and at other river markets con-
tinuously since the middle of last
week. Sheep and lambs declined first
of the week and sold higher yesterday,
but are lower today. Lambs sold as
high here yesterday as in Jersey City,
according to buyers statements, which
they used in efforts to depress prices.
Idaho lambs of good but not choice
quality brought $3.50 yesterday and
Utahs sold at So and $50 today.
Wethers are worth up to SC, ewes $3.50,
feeding lambs ss.75 to 81. Packers are
sorting shipments very lightly.
Portland Livestock Letter
Portland, Aug. %. - Receipts the
week have been: Cattle, 1884, calves,
35; hogs 1912; sheep, 6So9.
Cattle liquidation has been of fair
volume this week. The market is about
steady. Top steers selling around Z
cents. Cows, Sc; heifers. 1925; top on
bulls, $3.50.
Extremely light receipts Of hogs for
the week. Business active, outlet
broad. Demand exceeded supply and
the market held the highest position
Of any other American market.
A comparatively small supply of
mutton offering thousand fancy
wethers selling at SIS was the outstand-
il e feature. Eve trade sluggish and

dun; they brought IS.

State has lost but one game thus far
during the season, and that went to
the State University by the score of IL
to 0, in a struggle that nearly regis
champion in 1913, was easily humbled
by States warriors, and is now out
of the running. Hamline university OF
st. Paul was defeated Saturday and
Huron looks like easy picking or No
vember Z, while the Wesleyan contest
or Thanksgiving looks good though
too far off to be interesting.
The B~rookings team is composed
mostly of experienced men well versed
in Ewing's coaching. They are always
in the pink of condition. fast, and
medium heavy. In Hoover, Skinner,
Caldwell and Sheehan, State has a
back field without peer in the confer
ence, either at the running or smash
ing game. Miller and Hanson seem to
have the call at end positions, and
show up strongest on the defense,
since no team has thus far been abe to
make consistent gains through them.
The lanky tackles, Johnson and
Weber have been superior players in
both offensive and defensive style.
Stevens and Nelson as guards and Alb
bolt at center form a strong fighting
center trio, which never fails to give
grief to an opposing team. Mccoy,
Jennings, Laxon, Lanphier and Hough-
ton are strong second string men who
are always available for substantial
gains when needed.
The athletic association is prepar-
ing for record attendance at the re.
naming games. In two afternoons the
boys erected a new grandstand which
will increase the seating capacity by
two thousand. The new structure is
on the north side of the field facing the
old grandstand which vas outgrown
two a ago. A large attendance is
expected from the surrounding coun-
try by train and auto. 1t is understood
that the travelling men Of the state
plan to be here on Hobo Day. Novem.

At the home of the brides mother,
Mrs. d. H. Campbell at 725 Williams
street occurred the marriage Of her
daughter Matte, to Leland Cornell at
nine o'clocksyesterday morning. Rev.
William A. Mast of the First Presby-
terrain church used the ring ceremony
in uniting these two lives in the sac
red bonds of wedlock.
Miss Mable Tyson sang, 20, Prom
fse Me-" after which Miss Eva Ian
phier played the wedding march. The
bride entered the parlors carrying a
beautiful bouquet of white roses. She
was tastefully gowned in white.
After a delicious wedding breakfast
served to about twenty-five guests, the
bride and groom left for Rochester,
Mimi, and other points on their we'd
ding trip of about two weeks duration.
They will be at home to their many
friends on Third street
Mr.. Cornell lived in B%rookings some
years ago but has been away for a
time returning to Brookings more than
a year ago from Baraboo, Wis. He has
held a very good position with the
city power plant and has been a very
competent workman. He is a young
man of good habits and sterling worth,
and is highly esteemed by all who
know him.
The bride is a young m of cul-
ture and accomplishment. She is a
graduate of the Bookings high school
and was a junior in college. Being
raised in Bookings she has a wide
acquaintance among the young people
with whom she has been a favorite.
The many friends of these two popu-
lar young people unite in wishing them
a long and happy life.
Among the guests present at the
wedding were the groom's mother and
sister of Merrimac, Wis.

DISCUSS COUNTY FAIR

At a meeting held at the city hall
Wednesday evening of last week to
devise ways and means to continue
the county fair, all phases of the pro-
position were discussed. The feeling
was expressed to continue the fair but
how to do this is the question still to
be considered. A committee, consisting
of Thos. Kelley, Bert Francis, p. F.
Levins, Simon Smith and Jesse A.
Smith was appointed to arrang a plan
for this purpose. One plan suggested
was to form a stock company to own
the property, the other was for the
city to purchase the land for park pur-
poses, and keep 1t for athletics, air
kinds of public open air gatherings,
and county fair. We believe the lat
ter the proper plan and in fact the
only fair one, for then all in the city
would share the expense alike, as they
all enjoy the benefits alike.-Flan-
dreau Enterprise.

CLEAR LAKE LOSES FACTORY

10 Polo left last Saturday for Chi
cago for the purpose Of completing ar
~rangements for the removal of the
Whistle factory from this city to that
place. We are sorry to report this
change but Mr.. Polo informed us that
1t was imperative. There are too many
knockers here for the success Of the
plant, and besides he was unable to
secure supplies as rapidly as possible
for the successful operation Of the
plant. The factory has furnished work
for the heads of from ten to twelve
families and the weekly pay roll was
a splendid thing for the town. With
the proper encouragement the plant
could have been increased and a
larger force Of men put to work, but it
is too late now and the machinery and
business will be transferred to Chicago
as soon as Mr.. Polo finds a suitable
building and can ship his material. A
portion of the machinery is already
down and the rest will be taken down
when he returns.-Clear Lake Courier.

Short Line, which will be of interest
to our readers:
Recently the Minneapolis Journal
published the enclosed article regard
ing Winsted which believe will be of

that what we have already done for
Winsted is just the beginning of their
prosperity. We further believe that
your territory will be similarly bene-
fitted when the Electric Short Line
reaches you.

complete our full line at the earliest
possible date. The construction work
is progressing rapidly and we expect
to continue same without any let-up.
II am sure you are just as much
pleased as we are at splendid earn
ings. Naturally we are anxious to
build as rapidly as possible for we
know that every additional mile means
just hat much more earning capacity.
Our second effort shall be to make
the stock as profitable as possible,
not ony from the standpoint of the
dividends, which you will receive, but
from the standpoint of the many bene-
fits which will accrue to you through
