STATE FAIR

The arrangements for lighting
the State Fair grounds have been
perfected. There will be no night.
A big search light on top of the
new grand stand together with
four immense flood lights, will
light up the half-mile track and
territory within the circle. and the
big search light on top of the Ag-
ricultural hall will light the en-
tire street and a great portion of
the town of Douglas, and will as
sist in throwing a great amount of
light on the grounds to assist the
other nights.
The Big Midway, this street be-
ing in the shape of an a." will
be lighted by the post system and
this will make the grounds worth
going miles to see. The build
ings will all be open every night
and thoroughly lighted. Seats
will be arranged around the lawns
and terraces for all of those who
wish to rest. The grounds will
be thoroughly policed. Track ev-
ents will include, as a special fea-
ture, Madam Marantette with her
trotting ostrich and running mate,
turning a half mile track in less
than n minute; her educated
Arabian stallion; her High School
mare, Sunhower, and the high
jumping horse, st. Patrick, who
holds the worlds record. This,
together with the other features
on the track at night and the big
Midway, with its shows and glare
and glitter and noise, and with
the Fair bands, which will fur
nish music for all, there will be
something doing all the time, day
and night.
You cannot afford to miss the
show this year. Make it a point
to talk all this up to your friends
aud neighbors, and be sure and
be there for the week of the Wy
oming State Fair.
All of the railroads operating in
Wyoming have made a rate of one
and one-third fare for the round
trip. These tickets will be on
sale during the week of the State
Fair; the return limit good on
these tickets to return on any
train up to and including October
4th.
The live stock show will be the
best that has ever been pulled off
in the West. The entries they
have at this time assure them of
this.
The Arts and Crafts building
will be taxed to capacity, and the
new building now going up for
school work purposes will be we'll
filled. When we speak of the
Arts and Crafts, or Womsn's
building, this means culinary
work, needle and fancy work, arts
and craft work, and the t~axidermy
show, which will be a credit to
any community
In the Poultry House, this year,
you will find one of the biggest
collections of birds that has been
gotten together in many a day.
This department will be taxed to
capacity. They have a new build
ing this year for poultry.
The Agricultural and Horticul-
tural building space has been TAX
en- from many new sections. This
building has always been we'll
filed, but this year will be far
ahead of anything that has been
seen here heretofore.
The Old Timers will be there in
big numbers and they are going
to help put on a big show this
year. The Old Timers add much
to the interest of the Fair, and
the meeting is now an annual
event for the Old Timers Associ-
alton. This in itself will mean a

York City presbytery sfor copies Of
all letters passing between the oak
land presbytery and DR.. Charles H.
Parkhurst. pastor of the Madison

that developed when DR.. Parkhurst
sent to c. A. Sharbaro of this city, a
telegram that expressed surprise at
the danger of prohibitions carry

SPORTS
NAME 'WHITE HOPPE
is LAID TO REST
Title Takes the Count When lii Ar.
thur Takes a SnOOze ON
Ring Floor.

With Jack Johnson, when he went
down for the count, was the phrase
white hope" says one writer. Coined
July s. 1910, the day after Johnson
knocked out James ], Jeffries. former
title holder, at Reno, New, the two
words have had continuous life on
the sport pages for nearly five years.
No one knows who the first white
hope" was, or who first put the two
words together Unlike ''watchful
waiting" and the "big stick" the orig
in of the phrase is disputed,
But the white hopes" were legion
They sprounted like weeds right after
the black beat Jeffrles. Like weeds
too. most Of them had short lives
Carl Morris, Jim Wynn, Gunboat
Smith, Arthur Pelkey, Bull Young,
Frank Moran. Luther Mccarthy and
even Jess Willard, loomed up almost
as possible champions
OF the white race The last white
hoper was Tom Cowler. picked up in
Portland by Jim Corbett, and touted
as a world-beater.
Johnson and other circumstances
eliminated most OF these white
hopes" Arthur Pelkey killed his fell
low hope Mccarthy, in the first round
of their go at Calgary early in 1914
Full Young died at the hands OF viii
lard in a fight at Los Angeles last
summer Johnson himself put Jim
Flynn out at Las Vegas, July 4, 1919.
White hope" is phrase that is
probably gone for good Public sem
timent is against more inter-racial
fights. Besides. II will be some timN
before a colored fighter entertains
any serious desire TO mix with Jess
Willard.

ITALIAN FLEET MOVES
NEARER THE ADRIATIC

ON THE ITALIAN FRONTIER.
via Paris, April S.-The warships OF
the Italian fleet departed suddenly
on Monday from the Mediterranean
naval stations at Spezia, Gaeta and
Maddalena Islands. They concentrat-
ed at Augusta, Sicily. and at Taran.
to-. They are thus within a few hours
of the Adriatic.
The departure OF these warships
caused a profound impression. partic-
Glarly at Spezia, where until last sun
day the harbor was crowded with
dreadnoughts, cruisers and torpedo
boat destroyers. while the town was
filled with officers and sailors.
Italy now has the finest fleet in
her history. 1t is headed by several
new dreadnoughts of which the most
formidable Is the Conte de Cavour.
which corresponds In the italian navy
to England's Queen Elizabeth.
The future movements Of the fleet
are yelled with absolute secrecy. 1t
Is asserted that only the king and
one or two OF the highest government
officials are acquainted with the
plans decided upon.

MYSTERIOUS RIVER OF
ALASKA is CHARTED

WASHINGTON, April s.-The re-
cent announcement By the DEPART
mentof commerce OF the discovery or
a practicable channel into the Kush-
kokwim river, Alaska. attracted
Widespread interest. The interest
VIII be renewed by notice Just is
sued BY the department to the effect
that the coast and goedetle survey
has printed two companion charts.
one Of Kushkokwim bay and one of
the river Both charts are supple
mented by leaflets of sailing direc-
tons containing a full description Of
the courses which snould be follow
ed, the landmarks and other details
Of importance to the navigator.
The charts furnish the long sought
answer to the question of how to
reach in safety the mouth of the riy-
er from the sea. For the first time
the navigator has the means to avoid
the deceptive blind channels which
penetrate the shoals of the delta and
guide to follow the river channel
as it winds its way through the mud
banks of the river bed.
These charts give the results of
four years Of persistent effort in
adverse weather, many hardships and
some danger. With their aid this
great river valley becomes accessible
The resources of a territory cover
ing many thousands of square miles
await development by those who will
grasp the opportunity. The chart
makers have blazed the way.

HOW RAILWAY TRAINS
ARE MADE SANITARY

WASHINGTON, April Sin a re-
port dealing with the migration of
tuberculous persons in interstate
traffic recently issued by the United
States public health service, the man
ner of cleaning and disinfecting Pull
man cars. day coaches. mail and bag
gage cars. at Acheville, N. c., is de-
scrihed.
When we consider the number Of
persons who travel to and from
health resorts the. necessity of thor
ough cleansing of railroad cars be-
comes evident. Not only is formalde-
hyde gas used as a disinfectant, but
soap and hot water are literally used
as means of mechanical cleansing.
Dust is removed from the carpets,
upholstered seats and interior OF the
cars by means of compressed air
which has been found to be the most
efficient means for this purpose.
Fresh air and sunlight which are
among the best disinfecting agents
we have, are also utilized as a fur
tier means of cleaning the blankets,
mattresses and curtains used in
Pullman cars.
In addition to the cleaning and dis
infection Of railroad coaches the use
of individual drinking cups. drinking
water Of required standard Of pur-
ity, individual towels and dental law
oratories are all factors which make
travelling by railroad not only more
agreeable but safer.
The slogan safety First" applies
not only to the prevention of acci-
dents, but the prevention of disease
