Acts .Today and Tonight Third
Regiment Hand to (Jive a Concert.
The Country Store Makes a Hit
Fireworks Tomorrow.
The rain last night kept many peo
ple away from the carnival, but be
fore the shower there was a liberal
patronage at all the attractions.
Many of the visitors took reluge in
the waterproof tent of Prof. Phil Ham
burg, who conducts the excellent
Moulin Rouge 'Theatre. A good vaude
ville attraction this is, with several
pretty girls, who sing well,. and a fun
ny Dutchman, who has joks to burn.
Mr. Walter C.eorge, the Dutchman from
Philadelphia, puts on a laughable farce
entitled "Wating at the Church."
which is always well received. Prof.
Hamburg's egg stunt continues to
keep folks wondering. Those who
polve the mystery refuse to divulge
anything about It. so it's hard to print
the details of his trick.
The lovers' tub at the merry-go-round
. is a new feature that takes
well 'with young folks. The occupant 4
go through eplcyclic evolutions at a
dizzy rate participating In a very
thrilling sensation. The hobby horses
are kept In constant service from the
first toot of the whistle until the poor
little nags get sleepy about midnight.
The animal show will be In full op
eration tonight with a long ami Inter
esting program.'' All the other attrac
tions will also be going.
The country store opened up for bus
hies? Inst night with the-most varied
stock of general merchandise that has
ever been heard of. A ladv last night t
drew a gas range to her Intense de-j
light; another goi a cake of shaving j
soap, which seemed to disappoint her
somewhat. P.unny Higgs drew a pair
of curling Irons and a mirror and came
over to The Times otllce today asking I
folks how to use them. Hill Allen se
cured fix paek-.tgis of breakfast food,
which he took to the park today for
the edilleation of the monkey family
there.
A new stock is being placed inside
the store today and will be ready for
distribution - tonight. .Everybody., is t
trying for the beautiful .set uf parlor j
furniture.

HIS WHISKERS
WON'T LET HIM DIE
(By Leased Wire to Tho Times.)
Ithaca. X. Y., July I!. Thomas
Decker, ;i farmer near Enfield, threw
a rope over a cross-beam, made it
fast at one end and arranged a noose
at the other. The noose ho put
around his neck as he stood on a feed-1
bucket. Then he laboriously tied
knots in a rope that fastened his,
hands behind hi:; back. That accom-1
plished, he bade farewell to the world
and stepped oft (he bucket.
Twenty minute.--, later Mrs. Decker,
becoming anxious, went to the barn
in search of her husband. There she
found him hanging, more or less com
fortably and looking sheepish,
"Aro you alive, Thomas?" she In
quired, in trembling tones.
"I am," answered Mr. Decker.. "Ho
you suppose any one could choke
himself with a mattress of whisker.;
bet wee"' Mu rope and his throat?":
.-Tual 'was the fact. Tho would-be
suicide, in his nervousness, had
fail-'d to take his beard Into the cal
culation, and It formed an effective
cushion.

Those without the pale of New

prised to learn that one of the mem
bers of the smart set who has been
extensively entertained by Mrs. John
It. Drexel, Mrs. John Jacob Astor
and others and whom President
Roosevelt has consulted frequently
in regard to Indian unairs, is no
other than the son of Mrs. Russell
Sage's negro cook.
Though known in circles of elite
as Antonio Apache, grandson of the
famous chief Cochise, the dusky

Louisiana pickaninny under the ob

whom they denounce as "the most
fantastic fakir that ever fooled New
York," was declared today by Wil

both of whom are well known New
York painters of Indian life.
"It is about time the true charac
ter of this imposter is made publicly
known," said Mr. Cary. "He is not
only a fakir, but scamp. He is the
same negro who stole a painting
from me about nineteen years ugo
and in consequence served two years
in Sing Sing prison."
