Going To the great Yale Fair.

ment ended last Monday in a fizZle.
The postponement killed it. Only one
team appeared to contest. That was
the Sanilac Centre team. A scrub team
was got up to play them. 1t resulted
! in tie-score of 22-22.
G. +. Michaels will give Free Ball
& Supper on the third evening or the
Fair, to all who attend the great Fair
Ball on the previous evening, Oct. lst
| BE sure you attend the first night and
get two grand dances for the price of
one. A big time guaranteed.
Work has already begun on the big
sewer. 1t will extend from the north
east corner of North and Main streets,
along the north side of North street to
Mill creek. This will necessitate some
very deep cuttings. But we are as
sured that the benefits resulting from
this will far outweigh the expense in it.
Mrs. NJ. ii. Taylor, who has recently
set up bazaar into James Browns
store building, moved Thursday into the
Dutfie Block. in the store recently oc-
cupied by Frank Landro's furniture
store. She will open up there one of
the finest stocks OF novelties ever dis
played for sale i'm this village Notice
her new advertisement next week.
Emerson Pratt, of near Yale, was in
town Monday. lie says that he is
about to move to Yale, and will go into
the stock business at that place-Ca-
pac Journal. This is another testimo-
nial to the fact that our village is en-
joying some of the best business of the
country. All interests seem to be at a
maximum point this fall, the Fair not
excepted.
G. A. Wells has sold out his drug
store to the firm known as Grant Hol-
den & Brother. They will continue
the business in Chas'. old stand as usu-
al. 1t is hardly necessary TO add that
the BRO" part of the firm answers to
the gentleman otherwise known as
John Holden G.. "A. Wells will, after
his return from the west, take up the
study of medicine.
Next week will bear more than its
quota of excitement to our village. On
the day after the Fair the Whitney
Family,s show will exhibit here. This
company is too well known in these
parts to need any tlattering offset. 1t
! is I'm this show that one of our own
boys, j. o. Grinnell takes part. We
have no doubt that big attendance
will welcome them, and moreover that
all will feel repaid.
Very recently we were shown speci-
men of the paper clothing which is be-
ing manufactured in Port Huron. As
a protection against cold 1t can not be
spoken of too highly. They give one
all the advantages of woOlen clothes
with none of the clumsiness attendant
upon woOlen clothing. We are conf
dent that this enterprise has great
future before it; as well that Port HUI
ron has valuable industry.
Robert ii. Menerey has advanced
very rapidly during the past week with
his new house. He has the ground
about all nicely graded in anticipation
of the front. So now he can spend the
whole time on the house. 1t is now
framed and to all appearance will be
an ornament to Mechanic street. We
urge the owners on that street to con-
tinue in their good work, and soon they
will have an elegant street.
Secretary Wark will receive sealed
tenders, for the letting of the eating
house privileges on the grounds during
the three days of the fair to be held
Sept. 30, and Oct. l and 2. The bids
will be opened Saturday, Sept. 27, at 2
o'clock p. m. at which time said privil-
eges will be let to the lowest RESPONSE
right to reject any or all bids. Address
John Wark, Secretary, Yale, Mich.
The new lumber-yard of S. r. Young
will be, we are informed, complete
one in every way. He already has
large stock of shingles, and expects
soon an assignment of all kinds of lum-
| ha, hDf E,o
reason why such an Investment should
titles of lumber used in the town might
Ijust as well be purchased here as else
where, if an opportunity is offered to
get what is wanted.
We are informed by James Welch
that he has new species of cabbage.
In kind it is between an ordinary cab
bage and cauliflower. 1t is some
thing entirely new in this locality. Mr..
Weleh says that he will show them at
the Fair; although no premium has
been included in the list for them He
anticipates that they will be heartily
received by vegetable growers about.
| Probably next year liberal premiums
will be offered for them.
Yesterday the great Sioux City Corn
| IaIace opened Tor fortnight OF carnl-
val. This is one of the latest products
Of modern science. Very few really
recognize that Indian corn was never
known until the discovery of America.
1t is therefore q comparatively mod
ern article of food To show forth the
great number of uses the product is
put to, is the prime object of this great
fair. Any who have the opportunity
to attend will doubtless be elegantly
repaid
One of the most pleasant little social
events that Yale has enjoyed for
many day was that in Michaels' Hall
! last Wednesday evening. 1t was
complete success throughout. Every
thing passed off smoothly, and when
the company dispersed in the small
hours of Thursday morning. all doubt
less felt they had received treat. The
occasion was a private one i'm honor of
the Misses Loughead and Elliot, of
Sarnia, who have been spending few
days with Mrs. John Holden. We
trust they will not carry away an un-
favorable opinion Of Yale's sociability.
For the result, which proved so sue
