Judge II. was relating to his colleague,
Lon. David N, the following incident
A Middle Tennessee yeoman unused to
the demoraliZing practices of the city, and
who had all his life been in the habit of
eating dinner Just after the blowing OF the
horn at noon, stopped at the Ebbitt House
in Washington, where the dinner hours
commence at one o'clock, and close at six
p. H. He was troubled at having to wait
from twelve till one for his dinner and as
soon as the door opened he dined and
dined heartily. Judge H. went TO dinner
at six, and meeting Middle Tennessee as
the Judge went in TO dinner, he said to
him, "Mr--,have you had your Cinner ?n
Yes, haven't you? didn't get my
dinner till late-about one o'clock-and
have just come out from supper. 1t seems

a bill of fare. "What is this ?" inquired
West Tennessee. THE dinner bill off fare, "

ADA COUNTY FAIR There seems to be
some Misunderstanding in regard to the Fair
to be given BY the Ada County Agricultural
Society during the first week IN October. The
impression got abroad, in some way. that it
was entirely an Ada county institution, and that
persons living in other counties would not be
permitted to compete for the various premi-
ums, a. against Ada county exhibitors. We
don't zee how any such notion could have got
out, 40 we have referred several times, 10 our
columns, to the Fair, and intimated that we be-
Iieved the farmers near Horseshoe Bend and in
the Upper Payette Valley could get away with
most Of the premiums offered for grain and
vegetables. However, we are requested by
our friend Captain X. Bledsoe to state again.
for the benefit Of all interested, that, though
it il county fair the field il open to exhibitors
from any county in the Territory. and compe-
tition il invited from al quarters. No exhib-
ftor will be barred out, no matter where he
comes from.
