Circus goers of twenty-five years ago will
remember Herr Dricsbach, the celebrated
lion tanner. but probably have Heycr in their
minds connected him with romance: and
yet he not only had q veritable romance in
his life, but one that hlosso;nc1 cut Of a dish
of onions; and it was through she medium of
that most plebeian vegetables that he won
his lovely wife. Persons who know Mrs
Driesbach before her marriage recall her as
the belle of Wooster, O., OF which place her
father was a wealthy resident Accom-
plished as she was, beautiful, witty, and full
of pranks, to meet her was never to forget
her. Happening to be placed with party
of young people at hotel table where Dries
bach was sitting, some one dared her to pass
HIM a dish of onions Immediately seizing
the dish, she not cniyr passed it, but inquired
if he would have an onion. He said he
would, and took one, and from so small a he
ginning sprang an acquaintance that in three
months ended in marriage. 1t Yves singtl-
lar match and people long wondered whether
the dauntless lion tanner would have equal
success in tanning his wife.-ENchange

VIII some naturalist explain why ponies,
as a rule are more intelligent than big
horses? They are; and the fact receives new
proof from Rockland, Me \ citizen there
who owns horse and a pony heard that if
he put good sized stones in their feed boxes
they would be obliged to eat slower, and
would therefore digest their food better He
tried the plan and it worked well with the
horse; but the pony picked the stones out one
by one and dropped them on the floor, and

Special Features of the Display at the
Fresno Fair.
Loopyiga, 1885, by0s California Associated Press
FRESNO, September 25th-This morning
the gates of the Fresno Fair Association
were thrown open to the public. The city
IS crowded with strangers, and the pros
poets are that 1t will be one of the most sue
cessful exhibitions ever held in the State.
The feature of to-day was the great stock
parade, which took place at 10 o'clock, in
which some of the finest horses and cattle
ever exhibited in this State were brought
before the public, the chief of which were
twenty-five imported Cleveland Bay STALL
ions, prize winners in England, Chicago
and Sacramento.
Secretary Baldwin is more than pleased
with the outlook, and told your CORE
spondent to-day that he expected to see one
OF the most successful exhibitions in the
history of Fresno county. The exhibits
would certainly be credit to any exhibition
in the land, and shows the wonderful re-
sources OF Fresno county.
Among the most important is beautiful
display made by the Barton Vineyard of
grapes, wine, etc. T. C. White exhibits a
fine assortment of raisins, nuts and dried
traits, the products of his vineyard in sec
ton 13. George w. Meade & Co. make a
fine display from their cannery.
The baby show is quite feature, and
promises to be as interesting as amusing.
Secretary Maxey has charge of the Board
OF Trade exhibit, which is very creditable
and could not be in better hands He is
highly elated over the glowing outlook.
The racing events of the day were !:
Running, 600 yards and repeat, purse $500,
which was won by Smith & Howard's s
Cyclone.
Trotting for two-year- olds, purse $3.50,
won by ]. n. Ayers Ida G.

of the day and was won handsomely by

AUGUSTA (Me.), September 25th.-The
hennebec Journal, under the heading /" Mr..
Conkilng and Mr.. Blaine" will tomorrow
publish such response IS Blaine desires
50 make to the recently-published private
letter OF Roscoe Conkling to his friend in
New York State. Blaine was asked Sy a
kennebec Journal reporter if he had any
reply to make and this was his response
Notblng could induce me 10 enter into
controversy over Conkling's grave. Dur
ing oar joint service in Congress. sorae
sixteen years in all, we had some exaspe.-
atlng controversies, but l never spoke OF
wrote word concerning him except pub.
hcly, and now that he is dead my lips are.
sealed against every form of criticism or
unklnd expression, no matter what may be
the injustice Of any of his surviving
friends
Blaine said it was great surprise to him
that such letter should have been written
by Conkling. The date shows the letter
was written just six days after the close of
an exasperatlng personal debate with Conk-
ing, and If Conkling had intended to say
anything OF the kind he would have been
apt TO say 1t then, and not Immediately
atterward in private letter, which was not
given to the public for twenty-five years.
Inc wnole affair was not in accordance with
Conkling's habitual course in debate
Blaine was asked if he had anything to
say about the charge that ne had made
money out of the recruiting fund in the
war, and he replied that it might, with
equal truth, be charged that he had made
money by robbing the mails or by piracy
on the high seas. The recruiting scandal
OF Maine in the last year of the war had
been Investigated by two committees and
one public Commission, whose efforts
Blaine said he aided, and there was, he
says, mo word of evidence, nor even sug-
gestion or hint, in any one of the three re-
ports, that he had any more connection
with the matter than had Conkling, or his
unwise friend who publishes this letter and
attributes it to the dead statesman"

cations are that it will be the best EXPOSE

and is now in prime condition. From the
fine weather and general interest mani
tested by horsemen, the races promise to be
very interesting.
The Pavilion is beginning to be we'll
stocked, and the number of entries for the
premium list is unusually large though
the range of territory over which this fair
extends is somewhat limited. The officers

endeavors to secure the largest representa-
ton possible, and quite number of stock
men from other counties have been at
tracted by the liberal purses and premiums
offered.
