WILL GET WORD TONIGHT

Mulhalls Have Open Date During Fair Week Here

And It is Practically Certain THat Will Be Secured
A Good Drawing Card

Otto Fischer, who has charge of the shows concessions for the county fair, wired the management of the Mulhall's cattle roping and broncho busting show, at Higginsville, Mo., last night, making them a proposition to come to Lawrence during fair week.

Lon Poff got word in Kansas City Sunday that the Mulhalls had an open week on the dates scheduled for the Douglas County fair, and after a hurried consultation yesterday, the directors decided to make an effort to bring them to Lawrence.

The Mulhalls have one of the best attractions on the road and if they are secured, it means the making of the fair, for their show will draw crowds for miles. They have just closed a week's engagement at Independence, where Miss Lucille Mulhall, the champion lady rider of the world, was severely injured. Her sister is doing her stunts now, but it is thought that Miss Lucille herself will be back at work when the shows come here.

The Fair association has offered Mulhall a fancy price for a week's engagement here and it is practically certain that the big show will be landed.
