contracts with two large amusement
companies, which practically assure
better entertainment than has been
seen at any previous fair here
one of the concerns booked is the
Capital City Amusement company, of
st. Paul, Mimi. which carries its own
train of fourteen cars. There are $50
people connected with the amuse-
ment company They stage various
novelty and trained animal acts. A
feature will be a motordrome The
Agricultural society endeayored to
engage motordrome two years ago,
but owing to the risk in shipping the
drome it was not sent
A big eastern company has been
engaged to provide the free acts
The acts will consist principally of
performing horses. ridden by men
and women One OF the horses
jumps more than seven feet into the
air The Lake County fair will be
the only fair in South Dakota at
which this company will perform.
They are booked to appear for eight
weeks this fall. and will come here

GARBAGE DISPOSAL
MEMBERS OF CIVIC AND CHILD
WELFARE LEAGUE ENPECT
NEW PROVISION.

One of the matters that will prob
ably be reopened at an early meeting
of the Civic and Child Welfare
league will be the members endeavor
to have a systematic collection of
garbage inaugurated in the city
An officer of the league said to-
day that through some misunder-
standing the impression had gone
forth that the soeiety's request to
have a garbage ordinance passed had
been tabled by the city commission,
with the consent of members of the
league 1t was explained that the
leagues committee is in hopes that
the ordinance will be passed follow
ing the striking of levies for the year
by the city commission in Septem-
ber. The league officer told that a
committee had been informed that
there is no fund from which payment
for collecting the garbage could be
taken, but that a levy which would
provide means for regular collections
would be drawn up at the Septem-
ber meeting.
The leagues resolution provides
that householders purchase garbage
cans and that the city arrange for
the disposal of the refuse.
