into the arena each young man locked fol
all the world like he expected to spend
the balance of his days with a fine Ha-
vana cigar in bis mouth. 1t was arranged
that six young ladies, whose names were
called out from the stand, were to be the
judges in this contest.
The young men as s general thing dld
exceedingly well. Wehsve but one fault
to find-it is alament2ble fact that several
of them undoubtedly lost their chances
for the premium by casting sleeps eyes
from under their hats up at the lady
Judges. We admit that the attraction
there was very great one, but it should
not have kept their minds from off their
business. The ladies decided finally that
their particular pet was Mr.. james Doug
lass, snd fifteen other young men will
doubtless in the future smoke pipes OF
buy cigars. The exercises
To DAY
will be of far more interesting charsc
ter than those of either of the two pre-
ceding days. The
THANKS
of this reporter are here rendered TO Mr..
Frank Rose, of the 'sDexter" livery sta
BILE, for ride in his excellent omnibus,
and to the proprietors of the "Sumner
Hotel" for their hospitality.
Below will be found list of premiums
awarded for the
