Attorneys say that these missing assets
might quite possibly amount in all to as
much as s10O.O00,000.
What are they? That is the question
There is unquestionably much evidence
that Jacques Lebaudy of Paris, son and

no record of deposits or business trans

Jacques Lebaudy, forming a setting from
which she can scarcely ever escape, had its
inception, of course, in the life Of her
father. Lebaudy made himself notorious
as scatter-brained, unbalanced and ire

and pitied-who was not respected in any
quarter of the world, although he was
known and talked Of in every city of every
nation The calling of the name Jacques
Lebaudy," with or without the chimerical
title Emperor OF the Sahara" was enough
to bring a smile of amusement or laugh
in any land where language is printed.
1t follows, then, that Jacqueline Lebaudy
was without any chance to ever get away
from the memory OF her father. That was
the first material in the background which
was building itself about her without CIV
ing her any right to aid in its making.

Two Fires of Unknown Origin

Two Fires of Unknown Origin
The farm home Of Mrs. E. o. Clark
was the scene of disaster Friday af-
ternoon when fire broke out, Destroy
ing the house, furniture and all the
outbuildings except the barn. Several
thousand bushels Of feed grain were
also lost. The cause Of the fire is
unknown, but it is thought that it
originated in an overheated chimney.
Mrs. Clark had just arrived in town
when she was notified by phone that
her buildings were burning. The loss
is estimated at about $4,000 and is
partly covered by insurance.
The barn on the j. E. Bunday farm
near Crete was burned to the ground
Thursday night. This is another fire
Of mysterious origin. Mr.. Bunday's
loss is estimated at about 1900 and
is covered by insurance. Chas. Moore,
who Occupies the place, is the heav-

and some young pigs were burned.

FAIR TO BE HELD IN OCTOBER
People of Ellendsle Making Elaborate
Preparations for Event

The third annual Dickey county fair
will open on the morning Of October
9TH and promises to be the best event
! Of the kind ever staged in this section.
Considerable time and effort have
been spent by the fair board in pre-
pairing to make this hummer.
The management looks upon the
Flair az both educational and entertain
ing and an effort has been made to
keep out all games Of chance and
other Objectionable features. Only
good, clean concessions will be allowed
on the streets during the fair.
Several free acts have been secured
to be shown on the street every after
noon and evening. Among these is
Miss Ardith Schneider, 12-year-old
farm girl from Lisbon, with her edu-
Gated ponies. Her daredevil Roman
riding act has been a sensation at
many Of the leading state fairs and
Dickey county people are especially
fortunate in having the opportunity
to see her performance without cost.
Another Of the free acts will be
given by the Leroy company. Their
feature act is one in which lady
firts with death high in the air on
the rungs Of ladder. A double trap
eze act also is sure to please.
A contract has been signed with a
carnival company which will bring q
merry-go-round, ferris wheel andsev-
eral other riding devices, together
with some side shows.
Dancing every evening in the opera
house will attract both young and old.
The fame Of the Melody Five as Great
ors Of dance music is so great that
mention Of the fact that they are to
be on hand will cause tingling in the
toes OF all lovers Of dancing.
The exhibits this year will be better
than ever. One day has been set aside
as Oakes day and number of people
from this city expect to go.
