In Valley town. not manv days ago,
a swell wedding came off in a church.
The happy man was named Corn while
the blushing bride rejoiced IN the name of
Wheat. After the ceremony the choir
stunned the large audience by singing in
magnificent style, "What shall the
harvest BET"
Will have fresh oysters next week by
measurement. W. c. Barron.
Mr.. H. II. Yard. the owner of the
property formerly known as the Colum-
bia-Liberty Iron Co., has interested a
number of other gentlemen in the enter
prise with himself, forming a corporation
known as the Liberty Iron Company,
who will run the now furnace and fully
develop the iron industry at that place.
NJ. Geary particularly requests you not
to forget that all his readymade clothing
must 60, and if you want to secure bar
gains now is the time to do it.
To a certain extent general advertising
creates want. 1t announces Few things
and famiharizes the public with old ones,
General advertising is of as great a value
to the advertiser in keeping an establish
ed article before the public as in intro
duclng a new one. The most successful
business men realize this, and they never
let the public forget their existence.
Next in attraction to the fair, will be
the large stock of clothing of all kinds,
gents furnishing goods, shoes, hats, &C.,
at Van Pelt & Walton's. Read their ad-
vertisement, and rest assured that they
mean Just what they say, and will stand
up to every word. They have everything
that man or boy can want, and their
prices are as low as they can possibly be
made.
NJ. Geary, keeps at all times full and
choice line of groceries.
An exciting race drew a small but deep
ly interested crowd to the race track at
the Fair Ground, on Friday, of last week
The race was between Mr.. Will Hite's
young mare, Nan, and horse called
Warren Chief, owned by Mr.. Robinson.
Warren Chief won in three straight heats.
The track was a little heavy and slow,
S:S being the best time made,
Just in store another large supply of
sole. upper, calf, kip and harness leather
w. Barron.
The buildings, fencing, &C., at The
Fair Grounds are being whitewashed and
otherwise put in repair, and everything
is being put in first class order about the
grounds for next week. A delegation of
ladies will be at work for several days
this week decorating the main building,
and will have it looking very attractive
when they get through with their work.
The street lamps should be put In the
best possible condition and kept burning
until late hour each night during the
fair. As there will be many strangers in
town the lights will be a great help to
them in finding their lodgings, but If they
are extinguished at the usual early hour
they will be of but little service. Let
them burn all night If necessary.
Let the streets be cleaned up for the
fair, especially Main street. If everyone
will sweep out in front of his house to
the middle of the street, we have nc
doubt but what the Mayor will have the
dirt hauled away. 1t would add very
much to the appearance of things and
will give visitors a much better impress
sion of the town than they would have il
left in its present dirty and unsightlV
condition. Who will start the work
NJ. Geary is sole agent for the celebrat
ed Padan g. Bros. ladies shoes, Hayes
Murray g. Co.'s ladies, misses and chill
dren's shoes, and the world renowned W
L. Dougless shoe, for men and boys.
