WELLINGTON Fair.

The management of the 24th Annual
Fair, to be held August 10th to 22d, are
earnestly at work, determined to place
this in advance of any former meeting.
In addition to the usual brushing .ur
for the occasion, we have decided to
erect q permanent building for dining
hall; q grand stand is also being built
with shingle roof, and large enough to
seat five hundred people, protecting
them from sun and rain while the trial
Of speed horses or other exhibitions OF
the ring are in progress, not forgetting
the various contests In the athlete de.
psrtment.
Another new feature will be q large
fountain operated by steam power,
throwing beautiful jets and spray and
said to produce the rainbow in all Its
perfection and beauty.
The track is receiving special atten.
ton and will be in fine condition.
Several new stalls for horses and cat
tie are being built and old ones re-
paired; the grounds are being leveled
and graded; in short every thing is be-
log put In the best possible order for
the opening day. We confidently ex.
pect this to be the most successful meet
ing ever held since the organization of
this society. No one can afford to stay
away. Speak to your friends about it.

The bids for the new court house were
surprise to the grumblers, who were
out in full force, and who have never
failed to predict q failure in letting the
contract. The contract Is to be let to
W.. D. Richardson, and all arrangements
will be made during the present week.
Work will be commenced at once and
the basement walls will be completed
during the fall.
John Robinson will be here tomorrow
with his strictly moral circus"
The water works are progressing finely.
The county convention will take place
Saturday. The many friends of Mr..
George r. Metcalf are confident that he
will be re-nominated for prosecutor. By
consulting the papers on file in the Aud
itor's Office, It will be seen that George
p. Metcalf has collected for the use Of
the county during the five years of his
administration, the sum Of $12, ,90S 06.
We doubt whether q better recommend
for his continuance in that office can be
offered. From this statement 1t would
seem that the criminal branch of the
court has been. self sustaing, includ-
ing even the salary Of Mr.. Metcalf. It
il the feeling among those best informed
that his services are still called for. .i

TRUTH AT THE BOTTOM OF A WELL

Truth comes to us as gold is washed down
the mountains of the Sierra Nevadas, in
minute but precious particles, and is still
truth, though it be found at the bottom of
an oil we'll, like Carboline-the great nat
ural hair restorer, which effectually pre-
vents the falling out of the hair, the accum-
ulations of dandrufr, and the premature
change in color due to q diseased condition
of the scalp and the glands which noursh
the hair. 1t is well known that the most
beautiful colors are made from petroleum.
and by some mysterious operation of na-
ture the use of this article gradually i'm
parts a beautiful light brown color to the
hair, which, by continued use, deepens to
a black. The color remains permanent
for an indefinite length of time, and the
change is so gradual that the most intimate
friends can scarcely detectits progress. In
a word, it is the most wonderful discovery
of the age, and we'll calculated to make
the premnturely bald and gray rejoice
Carboline is put up in neat and attrac-
tive manner, and sold by all dealers in
lrugs and medicines.
