MONDAY NIGHT s

Attendance was the largest Of the Fair, the
hall being in a jam and many strange faces
were observed, notably country people. The
contests yet to come off excited considerable
interest, but the drawing of the larger
prizes also attracted many. The first con
test, for saddle and bride, between James
Sheehan Of South Ottawa, and John Pillion
Of Wallace, was an easy victory for the
South Ottawa man, who secured 9071 votes
to CAT for his opponent. In the gold headed
cane contest there were three candidates
W. j. McLain, A. r. Griffin and W. f. Bow.
man. McLain came under the wire several
lengths ahead with vote of $685.; Griffin
second with 429 votes, and Bowman almost
distanced, with 33 votes. Bowman's absence
from town explains the light vote recorded
for him. The next contest was for hand,
some diamond ring. and this excited rather
more interest. Miss Anna Driscoll and
Miss Nellie Ayres We'd with each other rs to
who would be the lucky possessor and Miss
Driscoll eventually won the prize, receiving
250ll votes and Miss Ayres 1881.
The large prizes were then drawn, Rev. j.
F. Donovan Of Seneca holding the lucky mum
Der on the cutter and Miss Kate Flanagan
on the bedroom set; and with the disposal Of
several minor articles "a full list of which is
given elsewhere) the most successful Fair in

was done by both sides, but Miss Bailey was
the leader ia the race, and when the votes

the contest for the easy chair, in which Mr..

friends who worked night and day and
strained every nerve to secure the prize.
Never before WAS interest so conferred in any
contest as in this one; everybody was talk
ing about it and otaer matters were almost
forgotten.
The hall WAS full of the friends and adhe-
rents Of Pierce They were earnest and en-
ergeic and they doomed their candidate for
all he was worth and they ceased not In
their efforts until they had rolled up . ma
jority of over 1900 votes for their candidate,
the vote being Pierce 5996l, Connors 1908
Although expected to be sharp and ex

most everyone because Of the large number
of votes polled. This was the greatest con-
test ever held at any Fair in Ottawa and MIR.

magnificent run. Mr.. ConnOrs showing, too,

A Case of Mutual Fear.

Alvah Shaw was confined to Jail
here on Wednesday, by Constable
Fast, of Perry township, on COM
plaint of his wife who AYERS that
Alvah is q dangerous citizen and
that she has just cause to fear, and
does fear that said Alvah will in
fiict great bodily harm on her per-
son, unless he is confined or put
under heavy bonds. Alvah did
not give the bond and so ceased to
breathe the free air.
AS we have the story he and his
wife had wordy war, and in the
heat Of passion and the extremity
of wrath, the wife siezed, an ak and
dealt the doughty Alvah blow
which losened some of his incisors
and caused him to retreat after the
manner of our soldiers at Bull Run.
We have no doubt, if the foregoing
is true, when asked to give bond, he
thought the safest place for him
was the Jail. Keep him safe, Mr..
Sheriff. Keep him safe!

There are steps being taken to
have q Grand Soldiers Reunion for
Southeastern Ohio, to be held at
Logan sometime in the latter part
of September or the first of Octo-
Der. Considerable work in the
matter has already been done, and
our citizens have given the project
substantial and fattering encour-
agement. This is as it should he.
AS there is to be no County Fair
this year at Logan, the movement
is Il good one, and should be made a
success, and if properly got up,
will bring thousands of people to
Logan. There is no locality in this
section of the State more suitable
or more conveniently located for a
big reunion than Logan. Let the
project go on.

A Cutting ARRAY at Murray

Many of our readers will remem-

two young fellows from the coun-
try who came to town and set up
in the saloon business. They were
not long in getting through here
and their place was closed up and
the young men We're seen on our
streets no more. 1t now appears
that they drifted to Murray City, Il
mining town on the line between
this and Athens county.
Just what business they engaged
in at that place we are not in
formed, but on Wednesday evening
they had quarrel, when Hanefy
