STATE FAIR.
What is Being Done--The Special Building
to be Erected by G. b. Thurston.

What is Being Domestic Special Building
to be Erected by G. b. Thurston.
President Adams and Secretary Judson, of
the State Agricultural Society, were busily
engaged yesterday in arranging preliminaries
for the great Fair to be held the first week in
September. At the same time committee
was calling upon merchants and manufac-
turers, to ascertain who of them intended to
make exhibits, and the amount of SPACE
they would require. The responses received
were Unexpectedly encouraging, the deter
mination being almost unanimous to make
larger and better exhibits than ever before.
Among the gentlemen called upon was Mr..
O. B. Thurston, manufacturers agent for
the Northwest of farm machinery, IS West
Third street. Mr.. Thurston informed the
committee that he proposed to make BIG
exhibit, for which he had already secured
the necessary ground and upon which he
was about to erect a special building 36 by
80 feet, in which to make his Display.
Mr.. Thurston is the agent for
the Milburn Wagon company, the
celebrated carriages, phaetons and bugeies
from the works of Harvey & Wallace, Buff
falo, N. Y, the Eclipse buggies of T. ii.
Brown g. Co., Milwaukee, Wis, plowp, har-
rows, rakes, seeders, drills and many other
articles of farm machinery. Among his
agencies is that of j. w. Stoddard g. Co.,
Dayton, O., who manufacture Randall's pull
verizing harrows, Tiger and Favorite. rakes,
Triumph seeders and drills. Mr.. Stoddard
proposes to supplement Mr.. Thurston's ef-
forts by personal attendance upon the fair
with fine exhibit of his specialties. A mum
Der of other dealers in agricultural
implements and other specialties propose to
follow Mr.. Thurston's example BY erecting
special buildings, several of which will be
commenced this week. +
An inspection of the permanent buildings
shows them in good shape, some being ready
now for the reception of goods. Others,
however, will require few repairs, which
will be made next week. The stabling is all
in first class order, but, from the number of
applications being received for space, it is
probable large number of additional stables
will have to be erected.
The committee arranging the racing pro
gramme are getting along with their work
as fast as could be expected. The COM
mittee are determined to make no mistakes
in this part of the great exhibition, and are
therefore moving cautiously. The pro-
gramme. as decided upon, will be announced
10 few days. In the meantime the friends
ct the State fair can rest satisfied some fine
track sport will be provided.

"A NAUGHTY NASBY.

"A Deficiency Of $4,000 In the Brainerd
Postofice-Arrest Of Mr.. Sherwood, the
Postmaster.
The postmaster at Brainerd is irregular to
the amount Of $4,000. His name is s. B. R.
Sherwood. For some time Mr.. Sherwood
has been irregular in his money remittances
and in forwarding the reports pertaining
to his Office When one delay
of this kind occurred. he was
admonished, but following this admonition,
when the time came for remittances, etc.,
Mr.. Sherwood again delayed. This was es-
especially noticeable when the quarterly re-
turns were due about the first Of July. At
this time the matter was placed in Special
Agent s. p. Child's hands to investigate.
He at once instituted inquiries,
following which he paid visit to Brainerd,
which terminated in time, on the Goth inst,
with the full knowledge to Mr.. Childs that
Postmaster Sherwood was short in his
accounts just So, 900.
Mr.. Childs urged the postmaster to give
some explanation. He had none to make.
Inquiry among the citizens Of Brainera
led to no discovery as to how the money
thus embezzled had been used by Sherwood.
He is not guilty of excessive drinking, does
not gamble, has not speculated to the knowl-
edge OF any neighbors, and his conduct has
been that of an exemplary family man.
Sherwood is an old resident of Brainerd,
having had the postofice for eight years or
more, having been first appointed on Gen.
Averill's recommendation. Previous to his
appointment in the civil service, he was a
passenger conductor on the Northern Pacific
railroad. he was highly esteemed by the
company, and has been until this affair, held
in high estimation by everybody at Brain
erd.
With the material facts Of the defalcation
in his possession, Special Agent Childs re-
turned to this city and put the case in q. s.
Marshal McLaren's hands. Yesterday at
GAO o'clock Marshal McLaren returned to
the city with Sherwood as prisoner. Ar
rangements, OWING to the lateness of the
hour, could not be made in reference to bail,
so Sherwood had to pass the night in jail.
During the evening GLOBE reporter
called on Mr.. Sherwood to learn his 'sexplan-
alton, if he had one to give, and felt dis.
posed to give it away. Mr.. Sherwood was
found in Jail, having been put there as afore-
said, plunged Into thought, assisted thereto
by wreaths of ascending smoke from an
odorous cigar.
Mr.. Sherwood had no explanation to
make. He supposed the, deficiency wat
found. He could not give any account as tc
how it happened. He hadn't speculated
he hadn't taken the money himself.
"Could any one else abstract it?''
To this he replied that his Office was very
open, and frequently he believed there wasn'l
as much money in the drawer as there should
have been.
When pressed to learn if he suspected any
one Mr.. Sherwood was non committal.
In fact he was reticent about tho Who'll,
business, only being willing to declare tina
he was guiltless.
His examination will take place befor'
United States Commissioner Cardozo to
day.

CHICAGO, July 31.--The Congressional
labor committee to-day took large amount
of testimony, which was very contradictory
as to the remedy for existing evils. One of
the witnesses was female member of a
working union, who read speech ef.some
length, giving her views on finance, labor
and capital. The general sentiment of those
witnesses not identified with the socialistic
labor party and opinions, was that times are
pretty good, are growing better daily, and
promise prosperous future.
