(From Tuesday's Daily.) Mr. and Mrs. Jake Kettering, who have been spending the summer back at their old home in Portage county, Ohio, have returned to this city. Mr. Kettering said this morning that he visited many of his old time friends and relatives that live on fine farms but that Ohio farms could not compare with the Kansas farms in some respects.

The average farm consisted of forty or sixty acres very well improved with fine homes and outbuildings and good stock. The farmers during the past few years have found out that their soil covered with dust from the quarries each year would make a better field of wheat. These fields are covered each year and some record crops of fine quality wheat have been grown. Many of the wheat fields cover six to ten acres. It was hard for their Ohio relatives to believe many of the stories of the Kansas farmer having thousands of acres and the stories of the wonderful crops in Kansas.

Ohio looked better this year than for many years and they are gathering a bumper crop. WILL GET A GOOD ENGINEER. Commissioner Moses to Make Plans For a Spillway. (From Friday's Dally.)

The Humbug Circus Attracted Good Crowds. (From Saturday's Daily.) It would be a pretty tame old world folks didn't have a little fun once in a while and those who took part the Humbug circus and those who attended yesterday had a good time. The tent seated over 1,600 at the afternoon performance and at the even ing performance the audience numbered 500 or better. The audience was in a good humor and although the actors made a number of embarrass- ng mistakes it all went in with the performance and the crowd had a good time. The actors who took part on ac count of the storm did not get down to the makeup tent until after dinner.

The men were assigned their outfits and when dressed marched past the makeup table where an artist put on the paint and powder. These days with the men wearing B. V. D.s it was hard to sit down and pull on a pair of wool tights that had just been sent, back from the laun- y. Many pleaded that they were unable to get in their clothes, but the instructors insisted they would fit and if they did not a small skirt was handed out and the actor appeared with a little longer skirt than he would have worn.

The parade got a good start up town before it was realized that a part of the camel had not been found. When the half of the animal arrived the camel and elephant were loaded on a aray ana given a iew minutes ride to the pavement. When the parade was up town the actors to take a part in the big show were made up and everything made ready for the big show. C. C.

Dehner as. ringmaster made the announcements and before each act appeared ho told the audience what to expect. They did not seem to be disappointed. The Gold Dust Twins, Y. Y.

Young and Paul Dalton, in ditterent poses made a hit but they had a look of dis appointment. They had a partner who failed to be with them in the aft ernoon, but was there for the even- ine nerformance. The Gold Dust Triplets made a hit. The second number was introduced as the daring feats on horseback by Princess Canizaskee, late of the Ring-ling circus, who was now riding for pleasure and running a bank for his daily bread. The audience was stir prised when President Pierce of the Union State came capering from the dressing room wearing pink tights with a flaxen braid tied down his back.

He bowed to the au dience and immediately began his dat ing feats on a hobby horse propelled about the platform by a clown, Henry Seitz. Even with one performance the rider improved in his daring feats and at the evening performance he got so he could stand erect on the horse by clinging to a heavy iron support. A grouo of clowns, under Fred Durand did many clever acts and entertained the crowd in good shape Archie Moon and R. B. Fegan dressed as clowns worked out through the audience.

Arthur Humphrey, dressed in a very small suit that was made before the war, played a hand organ at the front entrance and collected a variety of souvenirs. Frank Trott gave a good exhibition as a wire walker and was clever. One of the best features of the show was the trained elephant and camel. John Harbes as trainer of the elephant and George Rosey as trainer of the camel showed what their edu cated animals could do and although the four men in the animal hides were almost exhausted for the want of little fresh air they kept at their tricks. When the elephant laid down the hind parts of the animal almost collapsed and failed to get up, but after some effort it got out of the tent in a graceful manner.

The soldiers representing the arms of all nations was a good take-off on the usual showings of a big show and A. P. Trott, who has real whiskers and took the part of a Russian walked about at leasure and showed that lie had not taken part in the German war. The bar performers, William Dumm and Charles Henry Manley were good. They entertained the crowd by trying to get up on the bars then rested while the clowns did the real work.

Henry Seitz and Lester Thiele were the star performers and they will be sore for some "days from the work they did. The chariot races were different from any seen here. C. Rodger driving a horse and a mule and Jes Coffey with another pair encircled the big arena twice and one of the teams got frightened, ran into a pole and almost pulled the tent down. The tango daneing one of the features of the show was an extra and was good.

Fred Durand and Wesley Thomas aided by the group of clowns showed ability as dancers. The group of clowns pulled off a number of good features and kept the audience in laughter. The clowns were Fred Durand, Lester Thiele. Henry Seitz, Clarence Wagenseller. Hale Powers, Johnnie Montgomery and Orville Rucker.

The side show was one of the features of the evening performance and many who visited that place got their money's worth. The freaks were good and by the aid of an electrical device many who shook hands with the electrical wizard received a shock. Jim Clark, who has not had on a suit of itchie wool underwear since a kid was dressed in wool tights and rode bare back. Geo. Webster, bedecked in tishs of goddie color rode a prancing steed.

Albert More. E. ADAMS OF lT. I'. NOW IX ELLSWORTH COUNTY.

WliLSflON VISIT GEMTCOVHIT Tho Land is Leased to tlio Present User for One Dollar Per Year. (From Monday's Daily.) C. E. Adams, representing tho Union Pacific railroad, is the man who is now in Kansas leasing the lands of the Union Pacific right of way to the men who now occupy them. Mr.

Adams has been in the eastern part of the state and for the past week has been in Ellsworth county. Next week he will start in Saline county and expects to spend a month in that one county. He will then work Dickinson and Geary counties. While the Union Pacific has carried this right of way contest through nil the courts and have won their cases they are making every effort to be fair and apparently are doing more than their share toward making every property owner satisfied. Mr.

Adams visits the farmers, shows them a plat of their lands and where the new lines come to. He then offers the farmers the land for the sum of one dollar per year for each year for twenty years, and the only restriction is that the farmer keep a fire guard to protect the company's property. In towns like Ellsworth and To- peka the property owners who have valuable property along the right of way are visited and the property owners are given deeds to their present property. This work is taking a great deal of time and is in sole charge of Mr. Adams, who has offices in Los Angeles.
