La Sale County Fair.
S,,,arv Premiums Awarded.

Ono ccrrection we are requested 10 liaho
r, lot IL Sweepstakes Of draft stations, Dih
Shades horse king Tom took the premi-
nm, rot the one mentioned In our last we
found a GOOD deal Of difficulty in getting the
horse premiums and there may be o'her ms
takes For instance, Mr. Toilet showed 10
horses and got II premiums, though they are
mot all in the published list
Another error We are advised Of. In Lot Il
Horses of all woTk-we gave the LIST premium
70 Pbilo Wheeler and I'd to Patrick O'Meara
The case should be reversed, 0'Mcara taking
the list and Wheeler the I'd premium
1t is also suggested to us that we ought 10
have made a sperjal mention of the tret by
Neely's famous horse Byron" lie was plac-
ed the track alone to show how really me
horse tTl;s in oomparisGr with "hs, the an
dience had been seeing lie made the mile
splendidly, without sign OF balk or preak'
and at flor him) moderate gait in 2:32. ii
was easy tosee that by 81 little urging he coulu
have shortened the tune good many seconds
The gross receipts of the fair were about
$500. and will leare about $1,000 after pay
ing all expenses.
