The State Fair.

The State Fair opens at Detroit today and
will continue until the 21st inst. The at
fractions are magnificent. In addition to
the ordinary exhibitions at this fair there
will be many new and striking novelties
among which we note that the we'll known
theatrical menager, John p. Hill. has closed
a contract with the fair management to give
continuous performance in the Palace of
Illusions building, near the art gallery, from
10 a. m. to o p. m. every day during the
fair. The worlds most famous master
pieces of sculpture and painting will be re-
produced accurately by living models, with
elaborate electrical and scenic effects.
While the artistic beauty of the pictures will
not be sacrificed, anything bordering on in
delicacy will be avoided. Twenty-one sub
jects will be shown, among them the Pearl
at Heavens Gate, Hebe, Andromeda. Or
pbeus and Eurydice, Hero and Leander,
Sappho, the Fates, Dido on the Funeral
Pyre, Cupid and the Butterfly, Titania,
Listening to the Fairies, etc.

IL. There will be three days of racing
each week. 1t has been decided to hold the
entries for each event open until the night
before the race. This, it is expected, will
insure larger list of entries and better
class of starters.
The railroads are all doing their best to
make the fair success. They will all give
a one fare round trip rate from all points to
Detroit during the fair, and nearly all the
roads will also bring in one or two special
excursions at still lower rate of fare. ANY
ticket agent in Michigan can give the par
tculars as to his road. Commencing We'd
nesday, Sept IL, and continuing until Fri
Gay, Sept 81, the Detroit, Grand Haven &
Milwaukee road will run two special trains
daily each way. One will leave lOna at

turning, it will leave Detroit ut m,
making all stops between Detroit and lonia |
The other will leave Durand at $40 a. NJ,

How to Care For Wet Shoes.

First wipe off gently with soft cloth
all surface water and mud. Then, while
still wet, rub well with parafin oil,
using flannel for the purpose. Set them
aside till partially dry, when a second
treatment with oil is advisable. They
may then be deposited in a convenient
ly warm place, where they will dry
gradually and Thoroughly. Before ap-
plying French kid dressing give them q
final rubbing with the flannel, still
slightly dampened with paraffin, and
the boots will be soft and flexible as
new kid and be very little affected by
their bath in the rain.

crusade against the cigarette in which
both the press and public joined hand 6
for the presei walton of our youth from q
vice that bids fair to destroy as many
boys as intoxicants do grown men. The
Chronicle and Examiner contented
themselves with publishing assays of
the deadly cigarettes, ss made by lead
ing snaly tical chemists; and in printing
the views of prominent public educs-
tors, upon the subject of such boys as
have the cigarette habit, contrasted
with those who are exempt from it.
The Morning Call went into the mat
ter in far more apostolic style. how
ever. It has put out a lot of private
detectives to work up the cases against
such men as sell cigarettes to those who
are in their homage. 1t has caused the
arrest OF dozen offenders daily, but
the nickel-grabbers are growing cautious
and are refusing applications generally
for the fear of arrest.
Two messenger boys in the employ of
the Western Union Telegraph company
have joined the cigarette crusade and
are doing all they can to discourage the
use of the deadly nicotine among boys
of their own age. These lads have set
out on praiseworthy errand, for if they
can suppress the evil within their own
ranks, they will save score of lives in
the next two years. The cigarette
makes short work OF its unfortunate
victims. Those who escape the slow
waste of pulmonary consumption are
just as apt to catch the yellow jaundice,
or some other blood disease, from which
the system is never able to recover or
assert it's freedom.
In general way we have no great
faith in crusades or fsds of any kind,
but If the cigarette crusade breaks out
here the public opinion will be on it's
side. Few grown men take up with the
cigarette habit, and as most of it's
wretched votaries are under 20 years of
age, it is to be hoped it will receive a
check. The wrecks of humanity that
are piled along the shores of our daily
lives by this habit, which is the first
step to the opium habit, are so many
and 30 pitiable, that anything that will
lead to it's suppression will be hailed
with warmth.
