Fair Queen took championship hot ois at the World's fair at St. Louis lat year, and also at tl.D International Live Stock Shows htld at Chicago in 1903 and 1904 and at the American Royal show at Kan sas City in the same years. She is the holder iilto of various premiums won at leading state fairs all over the country. "In the shorthorn show the class of cattle, will be the highest in the Unit ed States," said M. D. Wisdom, live stock superintendent at the exposi tion. "It will be a show of great quality and one that people cannot atford to miss. The shorthorn show in general will be equal to any show ever held in America of this bieed of cattle. "In the Ilolstein class, "'continued the superintendent, "the Hazelwood Farm company of Spokane has entered '20 bead of show stock chosen from 70 head which the company purchased in Wisconsin. These are of the best of the class to be found. They will com pete against the world's champion herd of the Fierce Land and Stock company of California, a herd which is without question the finest in the v orld. The Pierce Laud and Stock company imported 40 head from Hol land last year and the bull that heads the herd is one of the importation, llo is considered the fluest bull of the brod living today. Besides these two herds, John B. Irvln of Wisconsin, who won at St. Louis last year, and P. A. Frakes of Oregon, who also owns some St. Louis prize winners, will show at the fair. "In Jerseys there will be shown a Hue and select herd from the Hazel Fern farm owned by the W. S. Ladd estate. This is one of the fluest herds of Jerseys in the world, and the stock sent to the show ring will be the very fliiost specimens of the breed procur able anywhere. In competition with tho Hazel Fern herd will be the herd of Dr. Still of Missouri, wnicn was prominent among llrbt prize winners lit St. Louis last year, and which has 1 eeu recuperated in size and merit, llusides these two there will be anum 1 i-r of local herds of quality, includ iuu those of Harry West.

The following comments from The Dalles Chronicle may as well be re printed for the benefit of attendants at tne local opera House : There are always a few (we were about to say idiots, but will refrain because among such may be noticed those who in every day affairs display good sense) who invariably see some thina decidedly funny in the most thrilling climaxes of a play, aud to the dismay of those who have been waiting such a scene and appreciate it, to say nothing of the aunoyauce of actors, titter and laugu, or, worse, make some audille remark.
