The first annual fair of the Champlain

d.; the f~our-year-old race by Joseph
Battell's squirrel of M~iddlebury. He

of the other horses. The time in the lat.
ter race was 2 1894, 2:40, 2 :393.
Wednesday morning the weather was
u~nfavorable and nothing further wa;

THE MONROVIA SALE.
A Successful Excursion to that
Pleasant City.

1t was a jolly party that comfort
ably filled the cars Of the special train
to Monrovia yesterday morning. The
attraction was the sale of acre prop
erty in the Crescent addition of that
beautiful town. The train pulled out,
the band playing and everybody in
the best of spirits. Large reinforce.
ments were received at Pasadena and
Olivewood. Upon the arrival at Mon.
rovia a large number of carriages,
hacks and wagons were waiting to
convey the people to the grounds
Mayor Monroe formed the procession,
and when all the carriages were in
line they reached from the depot to
the center of the town. After a good
lunch, which all heartily enjoyed, the
sale began with some opening remarks
by w. V. Monroe. II. H. Matlock &
Son had charge of the sale and every
thing was done in the best possible
manner. The Crescent addition is the
property of Colonel H. H. Boyce Of
this city, and the sixty lots offered
were all sold in a little over one hour
and half amid the most spirited bid
ding. The lowest price for which a
lot was sold was $460, and the highest
was 81 900. The aggregate for the six
ty lots was $45, ,160, making this the
most notable sale of the year SO far.
The owner of the property, the &C.
complished auctioneers and the people
of Monrovia are to be congratulated
upon 80 splendid result.

A Secret Detective.

Yesterday morning Deputy Sheriff
Russell took Mr.. Marsh, of the Lucas
Detective Agency, into custody, upon
information received from the bur-
glars, Webb and Gaines, who stated
that Mr.. Marsh had procured for
them and furnished them with the
necessary tools. Marsh referred Sher-
iff Kays to Chief Cuddy, stating that
he represented him in the matter.
Chief Cuddy was seen and confirmed
Mr.. Marsh's statement. Sheriff Ksys
then released Mr.. Marsh. Chief
Cuddy last night stated that Mr..
Marsh had been in his employ ever
since he assumed the office, and that
no one knew of the fact. He had
found it necessary to employ some
one whom no one knew was connected
with the office, and the advantage of
this is seen in the capture of Webb
and Gaines.
