DISTRICT FAIR AT MEXICO

A meeting of the stock men OF
Pike, Rails, Audrain and Lincoln
counties win be held ut Bowling
Green on Saturday, the 18th day of
November, 1877, for the purpose of
organizing a District Fair, to be COM
posed of the counties named. Let
the stock men of Rails give the mat
ter careful G consideration, and should
they deem it advisable, attend the
meeting. Bowling Green ID centrally
located-accessible by rail in every
direction-and is the very identical
place for q District Fair. Success to
the movement--Ralls county Record.
We don't agree with the Record
about Bowling Green being the place
for . District Fir. Mexico has su.
perior advantages over any town IN
the district spoken of. No town !,
more accessible by railroads thar
Mexico, and our hotel advantages ar,
indispensable. Audrain stock mel
should see that Andrain is represent
ed as 1t deserves and there will b
no doubt but what Mexico will hav

COURSE OF

Mexico is becoming quite citiied.
AS we go to press We learn that Sam
uel Grove, our enterprising postmas-
ter, has completed arrangements for
q course of lectures, to be given this
winter, for the benefit of the Odd
Fellows order in this city. He has
secured, at greatexpense ,!some ofthe
finest lecture talent the country af-
ford. We believe he has engaged the
services of the "Fat Contributor
Houghton of st. Louis, Ann Eliza
Young, Susan b. Anthony and some
other prominent gentleman lecturers.
We trust that the people of Mexico
will show their appreciation of q good
thing by literally patronizing these
lectures, who will not only improve blu
please the public. Season tickets to
the 5 lectures, for reserved seats, Will
be sold for the low price OF $3.50.
Those in the most reduced circum-
stances can afford to procure season
tckt Is, for it Is worth 81. so to hear the
Fat Contributor, who will lecture on
or about the goth of this month.
The especial features of each lee
ture will be given to the people
through the columns of the LEDGER,
in time for them to appreciate the
opportunity offered for both amuse-
ment and improvement.

Last Sunday morning a young man
ramed Fletcher was shot by his friend
named Duncan, both aged Is. 1t
appears that Duncan came to the
house of Fletcher on horseback and
was going riding with the unfortu-
mates brother, while one of the Fetch
ers went out for bis horse, Duncan
vent into the house and playfully
picked up a rife out of the corner,
and pointed it at the deceased saying,
young nan say your prayers. The
mother at once said, look out, that
gun is loaded,at the same time with a
loud explosion the rife went off,
the ball taking effect in young Fetch
err s head. In about two hours the boy
died. We understand that DUNCAN
has left, but without doubt careless.
ness was the cause of the death and
young persons should be careful how
they handle loaded guns.
