ANOTHER wrestling match between
Jack Carkeck and Evan Lewis, is
advertised 70 take place at Darling.
ton on the 10th Of next month 1t
is plain to most parties here that
Lewis must have a wonderful amount
of confidence in himself, or that its
a cooked" affair to secure the
money of those who are foolish
enough to pay so cents to see the
contest. And yet, from the follow
ing remarks found in the Darling
ton Republican, there are signs OF
its being on the dead" Mr. Lewis
in his letter to Mr.. Bennett, who
backs Carkeek, says; q have money
and muscle enough to change the
programme We would say to Mr.
Lewis that he has not, and cannot
get enough money to win match
against Jack Carkeek. If he has
muscle and science enough he can
win, but no amount Of money can
buy match from Carkeek"

TIE COUNTY FAIR.-A better ex.
hibit of the products of Iowa county
has never been made than at the
county fair in Dodgeville last week.
Those who have attended our county
fairs for the past 25 years appreci-
ate the marked progress in stock,
agricultural products, manufactured
articles, and in fact every other
branch of industry. Such horses,
cattle, sheep, hogs, and other things
as were on exhibition at Dodgeville
last week, were only TO be seen at
the most pretentious state fairs Of
the northwest at the time our county
agricultural society was organized
]. J. Ross 81 Sons herd of Short
Horn cattle, than which there were
none better in the multitude at Mad
isou, were to be seen at Dodge,ille;
Ellsworth's stud of Norman and
Clydesdale horses, which carry blue
ribbons from several state fairs, were
there. OF farm and garden products
the show was especially fine-super-
ior in the judgment of many to that
at Madison. Fruit in Wisconsin
this year is almost a total failure;
yet tho show at Dodgeville was cred,
itable-iar excelling that at Minere'
Point, and fully cqualIing the exhib-
it at the state fair. The poultry de.
partment was well filed, much bet.
ter than at Mineral Point. Our To-
cal poultry men disappointed the
public. There was reason to expect
that department at Mineral Point to
be especially good, whereas it was
about the mostdefcient. Our Dodge.
vile friends set them an example
that might be followed to advantage
Nothing attracted more attention
than the Polled Angus or Galloway
cattle exhibited by Mr.. j. {. Kirk
patrick, Of Mifiin. These cattle are
all "muleys" (hornless), coal black

JosEpH MoSAuAN, of Willow

seed corn. So says the Darlington

him to sign the pledge.
AS the different fairs throughout
the state,-and there have been lots

BAD JUvENI1Es.-Six young ur-
chins Of this city, whose names we
omit out Of respect for their parents,
were arrested Tuesday morning 10y
Deputy Sheriff Healy, and brought
before Squire Ansley for grape steal
ing, upon complaint of Mr.. Jos.
Gundry. They plead guilty; where
upon the Dist. Attorney and com
plainant recommended the Court
that, as it was their FIRST otfense and
on account of their age, they be
severely reprimanded and discharg'
ed, which was accordingly done. In
this matter Mr. Gundry took an APP
plausible move. Purloining of this
kind has been repeatedly INDUCED
III by he boys Of this city, and it is
time that law should accomplish its
purpose. When a mob Of boys en-
ter fruit garden they invariably
destroy more than they succeed in
capturing, as they go at it with a
rush and rip-tear style, destroying
vines, roots and shrubbery to an un
told extent. 1t is to be hoped that
this arrest will put damper on all
youths guilty of such mannyrings

A WESTERN OBITUARY..

Night before last, without word of
warning, Calamity Pease, aged 10 years,
passed in the realm beyond. Calamity
will be remembered by our citizens as
the almost constant companion of Judge
Pease, the editor of our evening con-
temporary. We noticed yesterday that
he did not call us putrid liar, as has
been his wont, and we knew that some
thing was wrong. Later, we found the
following brief tribute to deceased:
"Mr. Pease's little dog, Calamity,
died last night. probably from old age,
as it was between 10 and IA years old,
and had been in the family from the
time of its BIRTH
While we bow to the inevitable decree
which has robbed us of Calamity, we
should remember that our loss is his (or
hers, as the case may be, eternal gain.
Calamity is no more. He Cor she, as the
case may be, will not meet us on the
sidewalk, and let US fall over him Tor
her, as the case may be- as was the case
heretofore. Judge Pease is now left with
only one large dog and his family. The
day may soon come when he will have
no one to love but his family. The big
dog who lies in front of the Times door
and eats the remains OF dead animals,
and socially throws everybody down
who tries to go in the door, will soon
pass away, and the Judge will be left no
Joy but the blessed rest and mental re-
Taxation of writing his deep, abstruse
and harmless editorials. - Laramie

4 HOPEFUL CHILD.

Mrs Hamilton K. Fish. of Austin, is a
very vain old lady who is in the habit of
dressing in very youthful manner. A
few days ago she called on Mrs. Bezem-
bee, and Mrs. Bezembee's little girl,
about 10 years of age, was much struck
with the visitors hat.
"Do you like my hat, little girl ?"
asked Mrs. Fish.
Eyes, like it very much. 7 tod
mamma the very first time ShAt I saw
you wear that hat that L wanted one
like it, but she told me when I got to
be 95 years old, and wore false curls,
that she would get me just such hat
didn't you, mammal"
That Mrs. Fish's visit was not quite
as long as it otherwise might have been
was probably due to the innocent re-
mark of the child.-Teras SJti,ogs.
