SHOWS PICTURE DEVELOPMENT

An interesting reel called The
Mirror" which forms part OF the
Queen theatre program shows the
remarkable development Of the mo-
ton picture by contrasting the In
auguration Of President Mckinley
and Roosevelt with that OF Wilson
and Harding. There are also other
comparisons that stress upon the
difference in the present day pho
Biography and that of twenty years
ago. It is amusing TO note the DIFF
ferences in styles.

BUTLER FREE FAIR
Closed Friday With Record
Breaking Crowd. -

The Butler Free Fair closed
Friday with a crowd in attend
ance which broke all records for
this city.
Even an approximate estimate
Of the number Of people here
would be difficult. All four
sides Of the square teemed with
humanity throughout the day
and the court house yard and
exhibit halls were full.
The l. o. o. F. Conclave held
here Friday drew people from all
over this section Of the state and
J. the Odd Fellows participation in
the program was one OF the chief
attractions Of the fair. The Kan
sas City Canton drill team made
an impressive showing as did the
ladies Of the Kansas City Rebe-
kahs in their handsome costumes.
Because Of unsatisfactory train
service it was impossible for the
Kansas City Odd Fellows Band
to be here.
Friday was School Day at the
Fair and fifteen schools compet-
ed for the first prize with one
hundred per cent attendance, ne
cessitating drawing for the
prize. Prof. G. A. Lee and Prof.
A. G. Moreland represented the
schools and G. A. Norwood and
Secretary Knight OF the CONNER
eiaal eia4 Club Club representing the Fair
Committee made the drawing,
Clay Hill school with Miss Del
pha Sewers, as teacher, winning
first and Peru school, Miss Mary
O'Dea teacher, winning second.
Ike Dawson Of Butler, route 5,
with his wife and ten children in
attendance won first in the larg-
est family contest. Second prize
was won by Ora r. Ennis OF
Adrian with his wife and nine
children and the third prize was
carried off by Newton Dixon OF
Butler, route 3, with his. wife and
seven children.
Weather conditions We're ideal
and four perfect days married
the Fair.
Exhibits in every department
far exceeded expectations in
quality and in number and to say
that the Fair was an unqualified
success is but to state it mildly.
The committee in charge OF the
Fair here expressed themselves
as highly grateful to the exhibit
ors and others who contributed
so materially to the success Oh
the Fair. |

GOVERNOR HYDE HERE
Spoke to Good Crowd, but Ap-
parently Failed to Help g.
o. p. Cause.

The Republican campaign IN
Bates county was opened. at
Butler Wednesday afternoon
when Governor Arthur M. Hyde
and ex-Speaker David Hill OF
Poplar Bluff addressed an audi
ence. Of about four hundred peo-
Die. The attendance from out
Of town was disappointing to the
faithful and fully third OF
those present were Democrats.
But both speakers were given
close attention.
Judge Hill spoke upon nation
al issues and pointed out the
great things done for the farmer
BY the Republican national ad.
ministration from the passage OF
the new tariff act to the repeal
of the daylight savings law.
Governor Hyde after some at
tention to Senator Reed devoted
his entire time to a discussion OF
taxation and schools. He de-
plored Missouri's place as 34th
IN education, asserted that full
value assessment was the farm
ers friend and that the county
unit bill means as much to the
farmer as any legislation ever
nsssed. He denounced the ini-
fiative and referendum strongly.
Aovernor Hyde ascribed the
farmers present plight to the &C.
ton of the Federal Reserve
Banks in debating the farmer
while Judge Hill laid the farmers
savoes ct the door Of Secretary OF

Tuesday just before noon as
the south bound Missouri Pacific
passenger was approaching the
station at Adrian, Mrs. Minnie
Stolp, aged about 81 years, and
one of Adrian's best known cit
izens, was seen to step directly
in front of the locomotive at the
street crossing north of the de-
pot. The pilot beam struck her
across the breast and she was
hurled to one side and died
within few minutes. Mrs.
Stolp's hearing is defective and
it is supposed that she did not
hear the approaching train. Sew

the track but could not get to
her before she was struck.
