. sta,a Fair ueet,oy.

The Board of directors OF the State
Fair Association met yesterday after
moor and handled considerable
amount OF business of preliminary
nature incident to proper inaugura-
ton Of the coming season. Among
other things they passed motion ask
ing Council to condemn and open up a
fifty foot street running west
from the south end of South Penn
street, along the north boundary OF
the Associations property. The grad
ing OF South Penn street has broken
up the old surface drainage system OF
that portion of the Island, and has
caused the water from large extent OF
property north of the Fair Grounds
and west of Penn street to drain into
the grounds. The opening and grading
of new street will carry off this water
and be conducive to the health of the
neighborhood.
The BOARD also instructed the Secre-
tary TO get out new hanger for the
coming fair.

About eleven o'clock yesterday morn
ing William Auth, workman in kas-
ley's coal mine. near Coal run, heard

investigation showed Thomas walters
mined down to the floor OF his room by
n mass of soapstone aud coal, and SUI
fering horribly, he being almost eX-
bausted from the pain and his ineffect-
ual struggles to get free. His fellow
workmen were summoned, and Walters
was extricated and removed to his home,
No. % Alley IL, where medical aid was
secured. Walters fired shot in the
breast of coal soon after seven o'clock
in the morning. The shot caused the
soap-stone to fall on him, and Walters
Law there with the stone on him about

Everybody recognizes that, last year,
the works OF public Improvement
mapped out by Council for the Board

in the preliminary stages that the best
portion of the season was gone before
matters were in shape to do any actual
work. This particular snag ought to be
avoided this year, and il members oil
Council having street paving, etc, in
view, will get their ideas in shape and
referred TO the Board before March lst,
