What Our County Fairs arc Coming


When our county agricultural
fairs have to resort to the low and
degrading means of hiring the
services of professional prize fight
or to attract the low and morbid
element of the cities and towns to
their exhibitions, it is lowering the
standard Of the aesthetic taste, and
also one of the noblest industries
that the sun ever shone upon
agriculture-for which these exhib-
itions were instituted. When our
agricultural fairs are turned into
pugalistic rings, it is time then for
all decent and respectable people
to.withdraw their patronage. What
father or mother would take their
sons and daughters to see prize
fight? They would shrink at the
very thought of such a thing. And
yet we see that one of the attrac-
tons to be had at our Easton, Talbot
county fair, is that of the notorious
prize fighter, Jake Kilrain, who
has just served a two months i'm
prisonment In Tennessee for prize
fighting, and our Talbot friends,
whom we have always looked upon
as the very paragon of perfection in
morals and culture and all that is
pure, are going to encourage the
very thing (only in an another way)
for which not only the laws of the
State forbid and punish, but which
is against the morals and decency
of the State. When our agricultural
fairs have to stoop to such means
of attraction, the object for which
they were instituted, becomes OBJ.

The old saying, when thieves fall
out the honest man has ghost of a
chance, is in no way better illus
trated than by the rupture in the
immigration pool in New York.
For some time past the steamship
lines have had a very nice arrange
ment by which they received COM
mission upon every passenger sent
over certain pooled railways. The
immigrant was hustled to the depot
and despatched to his destination
without being allowed to choose his
route or to take any further part
in the transaction than to pay the
money and do the riding. The
commissions became a pleasant
feature of steamship profits, but
the spool" is going to pieces by
reason of internal discussions, and
the immigrant will be benefited
while the big steamship companies
Will have some of their little
methods exposed to the vulgar
public gaze. There are many trusts
where the trustees do not trust
each other.

Baldheadedness does not impair a
mans value in the ordinary affairs Of
life. He can buy or sell, insure, run a
bank or accept an office, with not enough
hair on his head to make a first class
eyebrow; but when 1t comes to making
love TO n girl 1t is very much in the way.
There is n great deal of capillary at
traction in love. Girls adore n hand
some suit of glossy hair; it is lovely.
And when lover comes to woo her with
the top Of his head shining like a CREASED
pumpkin. he is at a disadvantage.
just as the words that glow and the
thoughts that burn begin to awaken in
her bosom n sympathetic thrill, she may
happen to notice two or three flies prom
enading over his chronological organs
and all is over Girls are so frivolous.
She Immediately becomes more inter
ested in those flies than IN all his lovely
language. While he is pouring out his
love and passion she is wondering how
the flies manage to hold on to such a
slippery surface.-Christian at Work.

Zuni is tho largest Indian village in
this country. It stands on a circular
hill perhaps fifty feet high The houses
pieces of shale rock and clay. The cell
ings are low. but the rooms are Of good
size. If n man has a house on n par
ticular site which another man wants
there is no question as TO the rights or
ownership Of real estate, for the second
builder erects his house ~squarely on top
of the first, and no questions are ever
asked. Then in turn some one else likes
the location, and builds his house on top
of the second. From this plan of build
ing 1t would seem that Zuni will soon
be n lofty city, but the element of lazi-
ness which is everywhere predominant
in Zuni precludes the possibility Of this,
for the average buck will not climb
more than two ladders. no matter how
excellent a house site he might have by
going up three or four.
Small doors open into the ground floor
houses, but tho holes in the roofs are
used about as much as the street doors
for ingress and egress. The ladders
used by the Zunis in ascending and de-
scending to and from the roofs certainly
ARE substantial. Two long spruce poles,
not less than eight or ten inches in diam
eter at the base, and fully twenty feet
in length, form the upright rails OF their
ladders. For the rungs they use stout
sticks Of hardwood. and in one or two
cases we found disused and bent rife
barrels serving as steps in q ladder.
These metal rungs were so hot from ex-
posure to the sun as almost to burn the
hand, but the little Zuni children ran
up and down them with barred feet, ap-
parently oblivious to the heat.-Cor.
