A DARLINGTON paper says: One
of the most promising colts ever
raised here is the bay two.year old
fly, owned by b. ]. Eaton, of
Fayette. She is by Count Folsio,

handsome animal, and a good mover.
She is being handled by Palmer and

ACCORDING to worlds fair
ground policeman, nearly ali the
visitors to the grounds try to get
into the main building, where many
valuable exhibits are unpacked.

spectacle people.
A GIRL ~ Monroe who lad oh.
tanned a nice cloak Of one Of the
city merchants by fraudulent rep
resentation was very much surprised

public square, to Lave an officer
take the garment from her. Next

The lecture delivered in the p. NJ.
lecture hall by Rev. c. II. Fraser on
Thursday evening was a splendid
success. The subject was discussed

hour and half passed all too quickly.
The democratic tariff bill pro.
poses putting eggs on the free list,
whereas under the Mckinley law
the duty on foreign eggs is
cents per dozen. Our farmers wives
and daughters may therefore cal
culate upon cents per dozen less
for what eggs they have to sell after
the democratic law takes effect.
Cut this out, note the price of eggs
now and compare it with the price
a year hence.
VINO shall succeed w. III. Nor
risou as Superintendent of farm insti-
tutes is being considered. The TRI-
BUNE would wisper into the ear of
Prof. Henry, whose duty it is to
nominate man for the place, the
name Of T.J. Van Matre. Mr. V.
would fill the bill and no suspicion
Of political intrigue would attach
to his appointment.
