ATLANTA, Ga, Sept. 24.-The Odd
Fellows had grand banquet tonight.
The Grand Lodge to-day selected In
dianapolis as the next place of meet
ing. The decision of the Grand
Lodge of New Hampshire in the
Fletcher case was sustained. The
Grand Lodge resolved that the Grand
Sire be and is hereby authorized to
adopt such measures in relation to the
establishment of the Order in Austria
rs shall seem to him most judicious
for obtaining permission from the
Austrian Government to establish the
Order there, and to establish it there
if permission be obtained. Also, that
Grand Lodges Of the several jurisdic-
tions subordinate to the Right Worthy
Grand Lodge be and are hereby au-
thoriZed to cause to be conferred the
honorary degree of Past Secretary on
any Past Grand of good standing who
has served the lawful term as Vice
Grand and Noble Grand in subordi-
nate lodge. The Grand body almost
unanimously re-affirmed the position
of the Grand Lodge of 1874, making it
illegal to hold a meeting of the Lodge
or Encampment on Sundays, except
for funeral purposes. The Grand
Lodge decided the question Of consoli-
datiOn in the negative.

The State Fair.

SACRAMENTO, Sept. 26.-The grand
stand presents very different
appearance this afternoon to yester-
day. The attendance to-day so far is
very slim. The Oceident-Purdy trot
seems to have taken away all excite
ment in the horse-racing, and since
Monday has been named as closing
day, the exercises on that day will
doubtless have more interest than
those on the programme for this after
noon.
There was another parade of stock
this forenoon, and the committees on
thoroughbreds are busy preparing
their reports.
A large number of people left town
this morning and many more are pre-
pairing to leave on the afternoon and
evening train.

THE ORRKILLE EAR.

We spent Friday afternoon last week,
at the Orrville Fair, that being the first
visit The fair was quitea success. The
display was good, and the crowd of peo-
pie large. Among the agricultural ma
chinery Canton was well represented.
Amos Keith was there with one of the
Russell machines; M. l.. Gibbs with the
Champion plows, all of which he sold on
the ground, and the iron plow from the
John Ball Plow Works was also on ex-
hibition.
Mr.. Neidig, with his admirable gate
was there, as well as many other articles
from far and near usually seen at fairs.
Mcconnell & Lautner Of 0rrville, had
on exhibition their portable and semi
portable engines, and also the George
Gibbs improved Monitor Plow, of which
they have the exclusive right for the
State. They make engines of two, four
six, eight and ten horse power, and equa
to the very best. All this speaks wei
for 0rrville.
Floral Hall was quite creditably ar
ranged, and the display of ladies' worl
was gorgeous. Mother Earth's producti
were also in full display, and spoke vel
for the soil and agriculturists about Orr
vile.
The eating houses and beer drinking
places were numerous, and the crowt
was big enough to give them all patron
age. The shows also were there-gian
and giantess, snakes, monkeys, collect
ion of rare birds, the hobby horses 70
boys and girls, large and small, older ant
younger, were duly patronized, and tn,
| dancing platform seemed to be well pat
ronized by the young folks, with a larg
crowd of spectators to witness and listel
10 the music.
Horse racing was one of the leadinI
features, ana the last contest was rae
between a company Of Hook and Ladde
boys of Wooster, and one from Massil
lon. The latter was awarded the victor,
on the first contest, but the Wooster
claimed foul and demanded secont
trial, which was granted at last, afte
some excitement and considerable noise
when it was given them by second o
q half second. Those in attendanc
from Canton and Massillon did not ge
home until about 8 o'clock in the morn
ing, owing to the train getting off tn
track at Mansfield.
The Doncaster House, now kept by A
Scovill, was crowded with guests, bu
they were entertained to the satisfaction
of all. The 0rrville fair is becomin
quite an attraction, and gathers peopl
from quite distance.

MASSILLON CORRESPONDENCE.

On Monday morning about 10 o'clock,
large Newfoundland dog, belonging to
Mr., Augustus Martin, reing shut in the
post office, went through the glass door.
The glass was "A by 40 inches, and only
costs about eight dollars. A few such
exploits will make this valuable dog.
Andrew Price, photograph artist, O.
Canton, was in Massillon on Tuesday,
and informed us that he expects to start
for California before long.
Prof. Icons rope walking and gym
nastic performances are startling. He
performed in MassillOn on Tuesday and
Wednesday. He will cross Niagara be-
fore long.
We are glad to learn that Doctor
Goods circulating library is well patron

Rev. G. F. Stelling will occupy the
pulpit of the Presbyterian church on
next Sabbath.
We understand there is a move in our
