cultural Misunderstanding
Balloon Ascension--Eir:
Works, etc. etc.

November 3rd. ith, 9Th, 9Th and
7th, 1891, having been agreed upon
| as the dates for holding the 39tb
Annual Fair of the Cumberland
County Az, icultural and Mechanical
Society, in this city, it devoives up
on our people at home and abroad 10
s'look well 10 their laurels," and
put forth every effort TO win the
coveted prizes and bear off the
honors Of the day.
! So far as the premiums aic con-
cerned and the novel and attractive
features for the entertainment of
the people every day, the Associa-
ton will by far eclipse anything
ever before witnessed here. II is
estimated that fir IN tweve to twenty
thousand people will witness the
balloon ascension and parachute LEAP
on Wednesday or Thursday, with
fully half that number to see the
fire works at night.
Indications at present give assur'
ances that the live stock ard poultry
exhibits will be exceedingly large
and form, besides, highly interest
ing feature; while the agriculture
exhibits, by reason Of the goot
crops everywhere, must of necessity
be fine, and with the widespread in
terest thus early aroused, the Other
departments can REASONABLE. be re
lied upon to show up in fine style
both as to quantity and quality. Blu
"nothing succeeds like success" ant
TO achieve the success, easily with
in our reach, a ''long pull, strong
pull and pull altogether is es
sential.
Distinguished speakers from home
and abroad, will contribute 10 tn,
enjoyment Of the occasion witt
short talks on various subjects
while the Gaelic reading by the elias
of Highland Scotchmen will add M
little merrfment and amusement Il
the day.
AS for the racing, that will be thu
finest in the State. Already purse
of $500, to be known as the Cape
Fear and Pee Dee stakes, has beer
subscribed by the people and tht
society, to say nothing of thespecia
premiums offered by others, which
viii. doubtless swell the racing pre-
miums to seven or eight hundred
dollars. The race track is to be Ell
larged and put in first-class condi
ton and made one mile around in
stead of three-quarters as at present
In fact no pains nor work will b'
spared to put everything in "appl'
pie" order and make every featurt
a grand success.
. The grand bail, to be given com
plimentary to the visiting ladies ant
gentlemen in the city will, as usual
be a brilliant affair, and only thos
