BONNEVILLE.


The Bondville fair was a success. From
early morning, when the farmers began
bringing in their stock to exhibit, all
through the day and until the last ones
had left the ground as the shades of even
ing fell, it was a success. One might have
supposed that all roads led to Bondville
that day, so many people came to the fair.
A conservative estimate placed the num-
Der at 2000.
1t was fine show. There were full en-
tries of cattle and horses in all depart.
ments, 33 yoke of cattle in the town teams.
Through misunderstanding we are un.
able TO furnish the list of premiums.
Floral hall was crowded with useful and
beautiful articles. 1t looks as if the hall
would have TO be enlarged before another
year Out of town visitors were unani-
nous in the opinion that the fair was well
worth the admission usually charged in
other places. 1t does seem ridiculous that
so much pains should be taken to make
the fair the success it is and only charge
ten cents admission. If more were charged
money premiums might be paid.
There was no intoXication, no disturb
ance of any kind, and all passed off very
pleasantly, The ladies of the Methodist
church took nearly $50 for the dinners
they furnished.
