Ga Thursday, Mr.. David HAYES and
family left their house alone, to attend the
fair While absent it was entered by a
window, and gold watch, ring, some so
in gold and silver, and some other articles
stolen.
People who leave their premises thus
exposed, during shows, circuses, fairs, etc.,
run great risk Of robbery. Burglars and
sneak-thieves always accompany such en-
tertainments in order to ply their oceupa-
ton.

pREMrrM JEWELRY.


Epstein, the Harper House jeweler, bore
off the premium for jewelry, which was
very credtable Mr. Epstein : only object
in taking so extensive and costly stock of
the richest goods t. the fair was to do his
part toward increasing the interest in the
exhibition. Such efforts are deserving of
remembrance by purchasers. 1t is to be
hoped that all our merchants will do the
same at future exhibitions.
There was "a fine display of trunks by
Jonas Bear, the BufOrd's Block clothier,
on which there were hung the colors and
