The Fair!

The attendance on yesterday was ex-
ceedingly slim. To-day it is better, and
at this writing 10 o'clock, a. m. there is a
prospect of good attendance for the af-
ternoon.
The display is small, there being small
display of fine fruit and something nice
in the way of vegetables. There is a res
pectable display of poultry. Pickrel has
on hand his beautiful Millburn Wagon,
and Grain Drills. Several parties were
practicing horses upon the track, which
is in better condition than we ever saw
it. We saw Sheriff Cherington's sorrel
mare go around the track twice two

to-days' Fair, in our issue of tomorrow.
On opening the body of the dead Presi-
dent, it took the doctors an hour and
half to find the ball. 1t was back of the
heart, and foot and a half from the
place where they had located it. The
ball was encysted, or covered with hard
substance, and was doing no harm. The
hole, fourteen inches through the Presi-
dents body, where the doctors ran their
tube twice day, and which they kept ir-
ritated by washing it with carbolic acid,
was not the track of the ball at all. No
wonder that Garfield died

ing their lights to shine in the city to-day

At this hour, Il o'clock,) the display at
the fair is looking up considerably.
There is pretty general display, though
the quantity is limited. There are some
beautiful specimens of embroidery and
fancy work. The display of grain, vege-
tables and fruits, is very fair. Taking it
all together however, while there is a
respectable showing, the Fair is by no
means what it ought to be. If citizens
generally throughout the County would
take hold of the matter in the right spir-
it, our County Fairs could be made pleas
ant and profitable meetings. The officers
have labored to make the Fair this year
success. That their efforts have not
been seconded by people generally, is not
their fault.

On Monday business will be entirely

OHIO CLAIMS HER DEAD!

The maddening surfstill beats upon the shore,
The gloomy storm-coud hangs above the sea;
From Elberon the tidings come no more
That erstwhle cheered the hearts of you and me.
Along the rails the crape-decked palace plies,
And sobs, heart-rending, blend with rushing steam
The wall of millions reaches to the skies,
And hangs about us like some horrid dream.
Back, through the fatal place where Garfield fell,
Is carried now the senseless lump of cay
While strong men weep to hear the "dead-march''
swell,
And war-worn heroes turn in grief away.
His honored name, on History's brightest page
By fair Columbia traced, in letters bold,
He died-yet he will live, through every age
Oft will the story of his life be told.
And while we bow around his grave to-day,
And lay his form beneath Its native sod,
We know that now he lives in endless day,
And rests in joy eternal, with his God.

Lloyd, the Tailor.

Some days ago John A.
Lloyd, the popular Main St.
tailor, requested us to call in
and examine his goods. We
found every variety. color
and style of piece goods, in
the greatest abundance. He
had five hands at work, and
they were all as busy as they
could be.
Mr.. Lloyd went to Cincin-
natl last week to purchase an
additional supply Of goods,
of the very latest styles, for
fall and winter. What he
can do with more goods we
were at a loss to know, but
he said that with his own
work, and five assistants, he
could use up an immense
amount Of goods before the
winter should set in.
Now we are safe in recon-
mending Mr.. Lloyd's work, as
he made our fine donation
suit last fall, and the fit and
workmanship are faultless.
Go to Lloyd's for your work.

Cured in front of STEMS store, and that
at the time it was no larger than q
mans body, and could have been pre-
vented if the parties in the vicinity, who
should have exerted themselves, did,
absolutely, nothing at all to avert tho
calamity. Our informant, Ga laboring
NAM stated that he could have secured
it with the greatest ease, but no one
could be found who was willing to pay
him for his services. II this statement
is true we have only to say that it is
unfortunate for any community to be
cursed with the presence of such peo-
pie, and the sooner they are known to
their neighbors the better. This break
is about fifteen miles below Providence,
and will inundate large scope of coun
try west and south, while it will back
up on many places north in this parish.
But the destruction that will occur with
us is nothing to compare with what
may befall Madison and Tensas parishes.
This calamity, coming as it does on the
heels of a disastrous crop year, will, we
fear, paralize many Of the planters
along the "bottom."

a Washington correspondent, where a
United States Senator is supported by
terrapins. Senator Dennis of MARYLAND,
so my information goes, has about
twelve acres of land put down in a pond
that is fed by salt water. This pond
makes the largest terrapin farm probably
in the world, and is the source of a
heavy income.
In it terrapins are raised for the
market, aud it is said that over 10000
counts" have been sold from it in one
year. 1t may be noted, for the benefit
of the unini tiated, that a "terrapin over
seven inches in length aud that
@counts' are sold by number-bringing
from SO to Sl4 a dozen or about 81 each
In market they retail for about $40 per

rants are served at S150 a plate-one
