with two children came home and found the
kitchen on fire. The two children ran half
mile for help. The man where they went for
help went half mile further to where there
were set of threshers. They jumped on
their horses and started but were too late to
save the building. They did nobly in saving
furniture and clothing Miss Costly also
worked with might and skill in saving the sew
ing machine and many other valuable articles
before any help arrived There were several
attempts made to get up stairs where the
winter clothing was put away. The entire
kitchen furniture was lost. In the morning
Mr.. Gainforth handed his wife Sl32 to put
away as he would not be home for two or
three days. She asked where she should put
it. He said between the bed ticks This
was agreed to but she put it in the bible
which lay on the stand. Lucky she did so for
the bed was all gone. The bible and money
was saved. No tramp or burglar would tooch

The Boscobel FAIR.

The best and most successful fair ever held
at Boscobel, was held this year. The weather
was favorable; the attendance the last two
days was immense. Not an accident occurred
and the result in every respect must have
been as gratifying as It was creditable to those
conducting tue enterprise. There we're over
thousand persons from Crawford county ups
on the grounds each day. Prairie du Chen
sent train-loads; and everybody was satisfied.
There were splendid blooded short-horns The
herd of Durhams of Mr.. Tormey was especial.

ums on farm teams and stock horses. The
display of other stock, farm machinery, etc,
was good and all premiums were paid
promptly.
There wcre no complaints.
The races could not have been better con
Quoted. The running races were satisfactory.
The trotting was ahead at anything ever seen
on this track before. OF course MIR. Moshier,
the well known Excelsior miller, was boss
among The turf men. and his celebrated horse,
Granville, won the great "Free for All" race
in 2:29 the best time ever made on the Boss
eobel course.
Gen. Fitzpatrick delivered the most interest,"
ing, appropriate and ncqtcst address we have
ever heard at any fair.
The McGregor brass band made nice music,
aud took the first prize.
The hotels, merchants snd citizens of Bos-
cobel reaped rich harvest, and at least $780,
900 were expended in their city by the crowd
of people attending the fair The business

wholesome for them as onion tops cut up
