The county AerIcultura, BOARD.

meeting of the Executive Board Of the late
County Fair was held at the Secretary's Office on
Saturday last, in pursuance of notice. Aquorum
being present, President Shaver called the Board
TO order, when, on motion Of Wood, in Clas- X,
L, and VI Of the premium list, where second
premium was awarded by the committees, no
second premiums having been mentioned in said
lists, ordered that second premium be paid in
accordance with the award by the committees,
the sum to be one-half of the first premium on
such article, and the Secretary is directed to draw
his check on the Treasurer for that amount.
On motion of Wakefield, ordered that class R
unenumerated artlces-be referred to the Presi-
dent and Secretary to award all articles marked
LIST and ID premiums, such amount diploma
or medal, as, in their judgment, they may deem
best, and the Secretary to draw checks therefor,
or supply the proper medal or diploma in each
lease.
f. C. Lewis offered the following resolution:
Resolyed, That this Board congratulate the peo-
pie of this county on the complete success OF the
late fair; that the same is largely due to the ac
tive efficiency of the President and Secretary, to
whom all thanks are due; that we only regret the
unfortunate management of the free for all
race; that such jockeyng as was permitted in
buked, it being the object Of this society to en-.
courage only fair contest of speed. In justice
to Col Vosburg, one Of the committee that judged
that race, we must say that he was overruled.
The Board trust that the people of the county will
never be called upon to excuse such thing again
| On motion of Lewis, the further consideration
of this resolution was postponed until the next
meeting of this Board.
| On motion of II. X. Parr, vote of thanks was
voted to the newspapers of La Sale county for
their valuable aid to the fair, and also to the Ia
dies who contributed so largely to the unsur-
passed exhibition of beautiful articles in floral
hall, and, by their presence therein and patient
labor, aided greatly to the success of the fair;
also to the merchants and business men of Otta-
wa and the county at large for valuable contribu-
tons in the way Of displays of goods for hall, and
to the general displays Of articles on the ground.
| On motion, the Executive Board adjourned TO
meet at the Secretary's Office on Wednesday, Oct.
| Sd, at . o'clock p. NJ, and, on motion, mass
meeting is hereby called to assemble at the court
house on Saturday, Oct. 9th, at p. NJ, to elect

Runaways.

Runaways seem to love compans, generally
travelling in pairs, trios or quartettcs When you
see or hear Of one, it is generally followed soon
after by another, the horses acting very like the
railroad communists who fall into striking line
like topping row of bricks. Two serious ones
are reported this week, the first being on Mon
day, when Mr.. II. +. Gedney's team took fright
near Robert Strawn's place in west Ottawa. In
handling the team after their fright, the rcns
broke, frightening Mr., G. who got out at the end
of the wagon in doing which he was severely
bruised. His son accompanying him and who
remained in the wagon escaped uninjured. On
Tuesday afternoon the horse Of Mr.. Il. Cushman
became frightened at the cars on the west side
and ran of, demolshing the buggy and very Sc
yerely niurng Mr.. Cushman, who suffered the
hurt of fractured rib and bruised shoulder.
Under the care of DIR. Hathaway he is improving.
