institutions Of Dayton, and its members
rank among the best of musicians. They
are In attendance at the Horse Fair to-day,

ring strains that pour forth from thcie in-

SAINT MARY's ACADEMY The annual
entertainment of this institution, last eve
ming. Is reported to us as very credltable
affair on the part Of both teachers aud pu-
pills. The large school room was filled with
an apprecintive audience, who failed not to
mark the rapid and decided progress that
had been made the past year. The Saint
Mary's is Catholic school, and, like all OF
its class, most admirably conducted.
1t would give us much pleasure to speak
of the exercises and those who took part In
them, in detail had we been furnished with
a programme, but as we were not, we cam
give but general notice.
THE HoRsE FAIR.-We were not on lthe
Fair Ground to-day, but learn that the at
tendance was much larger than yesterday
and everything moving along smoothly
and in a satisfactory manner.
While yesterday Cincinnati and some
to1 ~ n tlp npiypl
to-day Dayton comes in on the home
stretch and "drivcs ahead Mr. John
Paullus took first premium for horse
Tor general purposes; and also first
premium for best pair match horses
They were considered the finest pair OF
horses in this section we are told; and were
also Informed that 5000 had been offered
for them.
Everything thus far bids fair to make
the Dayton Horse Fair n success. We tru-
ly hope it may so prove, and that the man
ugement and every person visiting the
grounds will not only be gratitied but sat
isfed at the result.
CHILD RAvIsHED AND MuRDEREp.-les'
terday we heard of the commission of {
most horrid outrage and crime upon thu
person of a little girl at Fairfield, some ter
miles from Dayton, but of such brutal
horrible nature were the details that w
could not give credence to the story. Th
morning our cotemporary confirms wha
we were told.
The little girl was the daughter .
Joseph +. Kncisly, of Fairfield, and was II
the house of Mr.. Johnson n neighbor
and the last seen of her by her friends
when alive, was on the porch in the rear q
the house, about six o'clock In the evening
Some three or four hours afterwards he
body was found in stable on the premise
in sitting posture, dead and horribly out
raged-the neck bearing evidence of stran
gulation. An inquest was held, but II
clue was obtained from the testimony {
witnesses as to who was the villain guilt
Of the hellish outrage and murder hall
witted fellow was suspected but nothln
was elected to prove him the guilty part!
Wehope the fiend will be discovered an
made to atone for his crime.
tE- Some days ago we made mention
of abusing their daughter. The parti'
we're arrested by patrolman JoHantge
and the man taken to the station hous
The case came up before the Mayor an

the case was heard before the Police Con
missioners to-day, and, we understnn
continued till the next regular meeting
the Board.
The story comes to us that when the
rest was made the man offered bail for j
appearance, but It was refused and the pa

all night. When the case was eontinu
before the Mayor, for two days, he adm
