THE GAMES
between Clossett & Devers and
Salems Saturday were series of
slugging matches on one side, runs
amounting to 20 to- and II to 5
respectively. The Sunday game
was witnessed by scarce a hundred
people, about forty in the grand
stand, with two singles and double
rigon the grounds. The game was
a pretty one and before a better
audience might have possessed some
ihterest. 10 Leveque acted as UNI

the box well. Potter took great
running fly in right field, and Jacobs
likewise made up for the weakp ess
at the bat by agility a-field. Collet
more than covered the ground and
earned frequent applause.
Salem has good lot of players,
but sticking up few dodgers
around town does not seem to have
the effect of drawing crowd.

STATE FAIR GROUNDS.
That Part Of the City Making I'm
prOvements.
ELECTRIC LIGHTS.


The contracts are all signed ard
work begins this morning to put the
electric light system onto the state
fair grounds. This will be great
protection to the exhibits at night.
1t will cost about 5000 aud will en-
able the fair to be thrown open at
night, and possibly afford horse
races by electric light
THE SOCIETY
has had a small army of men at
work on the grounds nearly all the
year. The underbrush in the big
grove was all removed, and the trees
trimmed upat an expense of S4OO, so
that it presents the appearance of a
pretty oak park. About hundred
old buildings on the fair grounds
proper, have been taken down and
carted away. They were useless,
unsightly and had to give way for
something better. III all the repairs
aud general cleanup, nearly $4,000
has been expended.
The secretary's office building and
and ticket office was moved, and all
finished up inside, so that official
will not recognize the former barn
like building which was officially
designated as principal place to
"cuss" and be "cussed.n
There will be four new water
closets built. All the buildings, ex-
cept on the race course have been
painted in bright colors and a good
JOB has been done where it was diff
cult to make paint stick at all.
THE G. A. r. WOMEN
will run the Uig restaurant in the
buildingon the grounds.A A goUdmany
refreshnent privileges have already
been granted, and from now on the
grounds will be lively. The Pres
byterian ladies will have the pink
rotunda. Superintendent j. @.
Wilson has made great improve
ment in the appearance of the whole
fair grounds. He proposes to have
all the grounds moved again and
the people who visit the fair will be
pleased at the result of his labors.
THE ELECTRIC RAILROAD
has spent several thousand dollars
in tracks and platforms on the
grounds and has virtually built a
first-class steel-rail line of over a
mile for the special benefit of the
state fair. No state fair grounds in
America is better equipped with
transportation facilities than this.
Vestibule ears with trailers rHnning
twenty miles an hour, will carry the
public back and forth every ten
minutes, during fair week.
OTHER IMPROVEMENTS.
A number of nice new cottages
will be built on the grounds before
the fair opens, Sept. 14th. The
baseball grounds will prove great
addition to the fair. Tie base ball
association has spent about $4,000 in
giving the capital city one of the
best grounds and amphitheaters in
the state. The graded streets IN
Rosedale addition, the electric car
line running through to the S. P.
Railway Co.'s fair ground station,
all to give this suburb of the city
greatly improved appearance.

SELLS BROS 2Oth ANNUAL TOUR
A Very Great and Varied Entertain

Other shows may come and go,
but Sells Brothers enormous united
exhibitions, like Tennyson's Brook,
seem destined to Ego on forever"
They have already been under one
and the same ownership and man
agement longer than any other SINH
lar enterprise now in existence, and
their continual increase in size, at
tractiveness and popularity is fair
sign of health and longevity. The
Messrs. Sells are legitimate, enter
showmen, and honorable men, with
whom it is both pleasurable and
profitable to do business. AS such,
both they and their stupendous
and elegant entertainment will be
again most heartily welcome at Sa-
lem on Thursday, Aug. goth. For
their present tour, their wild beast,
hippodromatic, circus, specular and
other resources of instruction and
amusement have been largely in
creased, and they undoubtedly pre-
sent altogether the biggest and best
show of its kind In the world. They
manage it in person, and il is SO con-
Quoted as to deserve and obtain uni
versal popularity and patronage.
The nomadic Pecksniffs who, under
the snuffiing pretext of morality,
substitute immoral apings Of ancient
