''What surprised you most when you
landed in American was asked of a
newly-arrived Englishman the other
day. WELL" was the reply, "you may
think it strange, but do you know, as a
fact. what surprised me most was the
barman in a public house, handing me
the whisky bottle across the counter
and telling me to help myself. What a
wonderful sober lot of people they
must be here. thought l, when they can
be trusted to help themselves to the
whisky bottle. Why, if such thing
were done in England you would have
the streets blocked in the neighborheod

Lind, the next Congressman from the

The State Fair closed last Saturday.
Although the show was hundred per
cent better than that of last year, the
attendance of visitors did not exceed
go, ,OOO-some 10000 less than last year.
The exhibit of live stock was very fine,
in fact there has never been ANYTHING
like it seen in this country. We do not
share the opinion Of the managers that
the Minneapolis exposition detract-
ed from the fair, as everyone from the
outside Of the two cities who visited the
exposition also took in the fair. The
great trouble appears to be that the
farmers who should be the most re-
presented take the least interest in
these annsal exhibits. and we doubt
whether it will ever be any different.

drew his weapon quickly AMI got the

The shooting then became promiscuous
