Fair Notes.

Among the many really good horses
brought to Paw Paw during the fair
the two-year-old shown by Nj. Mcneil,
of Porter, was by no means without
merit. He is IL large, finely built, grace
full animal and well worthy of favora-
Bile mention in this connection.
The STEAMBOAT colt exhibited by
Messrs. Hathaway, Young and Wildey,
was greatly admired, and if the predic-
tons SO freely INDUCED in by all who
saw him are verified, land, barring ac-
cidents, they doubtless will be-, his
owners have certainly drawn prize.
Fred Lee, of Dowagiac, exhibited
Sable Guy (Wilkes), 10 months old, II
very promising, finely bred colt Mr..
Lee paid s. 900 for this colt when it was
only four months old, and has, it is
said, refused an offer of $4,000 for
him.
Hattie Maynard and Kittie Buckhout
contested for the ribbons in the ladies
riding class. Both made a good appear
ance upon their horses. The blue rib
bon was tied To the bride of the horse
ridden by Miss Maynard.
In the gents driving class, f. b.
ADDOtt, Oh DIttusNlllt, hnlSntS DlOSs,
of Schoolcraft; Joel Sage and Will
Deming, each entered teams The blue
ribbon was given Mr.. Abbot and the
red to knights Bros.
+. b. Abbott, Henry Sage and Hugh
Rix entered in the class of gents single
drivers. Mr.. Abbott was accorded the
blue and Mr. Sage the red ribbon.
Mrs. Joel Sage was accorded first
place for showing the best ladies' driv-
ing horse, Mrs. Ed. Bilsborrow second.
Both these ladies showed great skill in
handling their horses, and it must have
been very difficult to decide which one
was superior to the other.
Van Buren, county stands clearly in
the front rank as a producer of fine
horses, a position reached as result of
the persistent and intelligent efforts on
the part of few of its enterprising and
nervy horsemen, and we believe the
time is near at hand when this section
will be favorably known throughout
the entire country for its valuable
horse product. This conclusion is fully
justified by the complimentary remarks
so freely INDUCED in by prominent
horse owners and horse fanciers from
various parts of the state who were at
tracted here by the Horse Fair of last
week The fattering outlook should,
and doubtless will, stimulate to still
greater effort in this direction.

Favorable Weather, Liberal Patronage

terest scarcely to be expected. The
reputation already acquired by this
county not only for good horses but for
good judges of the same, was fully main
tanned, and new impetus will doubt
less be given the horse industry in this
section as result of the meeting.

HAD A DELIGHTFUL TIME.
The Sons of Veterans Excursion on tn,
River by Moonlight.

The Sons of Veterans Excursion on the
River by Moonlight.
The Sons OF Veterans excursion down
river left the foot of n street at GAS last
evening. The excursionists went on the
steamer Governor Dana, with the barge
Sutterville lsshed beside it. About 800
persons made up the party. The boats
were in charge of Captain Roberts and
Pilot Jewell.
The excursion party was managed by a
committee of the Sons with Captain L.
E. G. Jordan presiding. The young men
were assisted by several ladies as a COM
mittee, with Mrs. Z. G. Jordan at the head.
The First Artillery Band furnished music
for dancing on the barge, the spacious
deck of which was rallied in and covered
for the purpose. Caterer B. A. johnson
furnished the refreshments.
Itwas a beautiful night and the ride upon
the river was delightful. 1t was a COM
plete social success, but the heavy expense
involved will leave the Sons of Veterans
Camp no margin of profit. 1t will enjoy
the reflection, however, of having carried
out one of the most delightful of river
rides. The excursionists returned at 1870
this morning.
The only untoward event of the evening
was due to some reckless fellow, who
ought to be drubbed soundly. As the
steamer turned to return, Just above Clarks-
burg, he cried out MAN overheard, -
whereupon lady proceeded to faint away.
The rascal who concocted the ''joke" will
be consoled by the reflection probably,
that among river men false cry of that
kind is considered a crime, for which,
the perpetrator is sometimes thoroughly
duckad

SOUTHERN PACIFIC.
Interview With Third Vice-President
StuhhS.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 2d.-J. C. Stubbs Third
Vice President of the southern Pacific Railroad,
arrived home on Saturday last and reported for
business at his Office this morning. Mr.. Stubbs
was called to Washington to testify before the
Interstate Commerce Commission relative to the
alleged discrimination in freights on European
and Asiatic products over their line.
Mr.. Stubbs made an argument before the COM
mission on the subject, claiming that the posi-
ton assumed by the compaEy was necessary
one, and forced upon it by the active competi-
ton of British freighters. The. Commission re.
served their decision.
The Third Vice President seemed to be con-
sideraby interested in the progress of the silver
bill.
"In my opinion" said he, ''the silver question
is purely an issue of the coast. We are the
largest producers of the white metal in this
terested in its universal adoption as circulat-
ing medium"
'It is my belief" continued Mr.. Stubbs, who
with great difficulty and after prolonged search
fished out 81 silver certificate from the depths
of capacious pocket book, THAT the Govern.
ment ought to cease issuing these small bills
and leave all circulation below, say So, to be
filed by silver exclusively"
Regarding the business of the Southern Pa
cifc, Mr.. Stubbs stated that the receipts of the
road were increasing from week to week, and
had now fully reached the current receipts of
the same period last year. The unusual
weather of the " inter and the decrease of tour
lst travel, together with the interru otion of
local business caused by the rains had all con-
Spired to reduce the company's receipts but
the present prospect was cheering for good
season for the road.
