STATE FAIR.

The Wisconsin State Fair to be held at
Milwaukee on Is to 21st inst, promises
to excel all prior state fairs, both IN the
number of exhibits and in attendance.
One Of the novelties in the way Of at
fractions, will be the football game be-
tween the Northwestern University and
Wisconsin University, TO take place on
Saturday, September 21st. There Is
great interest manifested in this game,
and it is looked forward to us being the
greatest game Of the season. Manager
Mitchell Of the Evanston team says that
he has arranged for a special train to
bring the students from Evanston
to the state fair grounds, and there
will be in the neghborhood Of 81 thous-
and students from that University to
come up and back their team. Students
Of the Wisconsin University will not be
lacking in backing their team also.
Both of these teams are now III active
training for this contest.
This year, Wednesday, September IS,
has been set apart as "Wisconsin Day
and it is expected that the people
throughout the state will make an effort
to be present and make WISCONSIN Day
the day OF the Fair, instead Of "Miiwau-
kee Day." which has always tax, the
lead. On this day, as is customary, the
Governor OF the state will represent and
address the public. AS an attraction for
those who come from the rural districts,
the management have secured "Joe
Patchen'' and John r. Gentry" the two
great kings OF the turf at the present
day. On this ocassion they will go
against each other for the supremacy Of
the turf. We trust that the people Of
Wisconsin who have taken any interest
in the trotting horse, will show their
appreciation Of this attraction, it being
the first time that the people OF the
Badger state have had an opportunity
of seeing contest in speed between the
greatest horses in the world, in their
own state. This feature alone ought to
tax the capacity OF the State Fair Park.
Excursion rates have been secured from
all parts of the state-one fare for the
round trip, good until and including
23d.
With good weather, the Wisconsin
State Fair OF 1895 will prove a grand
success financially and otherwise

SARNIA SAFE.
The Disabled Steamer lowed
Into Belfast. =
r229 Passengers all WeII-The
Mail Was 19 Sacks.

BELFAST, Ireland, Jan. 2.--The Domin-
ion Line steamer Sarnia, Captain Couch,
from Portland, Me-, and Halifax, N. B.,
for Liverpool, put into Belfast Lough this
morning for shelter. She was in tow of
two tugs.
The Sarnia, as before reported, lost her
rudder and was taken in tow by the
Anchor Line steamship Anchoria, but the
latter was compelled to abandon her
ewing to severe weather about ,130
miles of Tory Island. Later the
Iarnia was picked up by the Allan
Line steamer Norwegian, from Glasgow
Tor New York, and accompanied by three
tags, she was believed TO be sure of reach
ing Liverpool. 1t would seem from the
Belfast dispatch that the Norwegian must
have continued on her way TO New York
and that two of the three tugs towed the
Sarnia into Belfast Lough.
The mail OF the Ssrnia, consisting OF 10
sacks, was taken to Belfast by tug.
The 80 saloon passengers, 40 second
class passengers and l59 steerage passen-
gers Of the Sarnia will be forwarded TO
liverpool tonight by a steamer sailing
from Belfast. III the weather permits the
Sarnia will be towed TO Liverpool this
evening.

FIVE BADLY HURT
Chicago ;0wI" Suburban Run
Into an Open Switch.

CHICAGO, Jan. AUST at midnight, as
the "Owl" suburban on the Northwest
ern reached the Deering Depot, Fuller
ton avenue and Clyborn place, 1t ran
through an open switch into freight
standing on side track. The tender
OF the passenger engine crashed into the
first coach, badly injuring five passengers.
The collision knocked the freight from
the track, wrecking the depot. The In
jured are:
Jacob Cohn, body bruises, cot by glass;
wounds dressed, taken home.
Mrs. William Preston, Ravenswood, leg
broken, badly bruised and hurt internal
ly; taken to st. Joseph's Hospital, may
die.
William Preston, Ravenswood, crushed
and bruised; taken to st. Joseph's Hos
pital.
Carrie Washington, bruised and cut
with glass; went home when wounds were
dressed.
Arthur Pitts, Evanston, bruised and cut
by glass; went home when wounds were
dressed.
There were 800 passengers on the "Owl."
The first car was well filled, and only for
the slackening Of speed because OF the ap-
proach to the depot the casualties would
have been much greater. That the acci-
dent is the direct result OF negligence is
certain. The switch, which was turned
to admit the freight, was left open.

William X. Vanderbilt Came to Town
In a Special Car.


NEWPORT, Jan. 2-The City Council
for 1894 held its final meeting last night,
the leading feature OF which was speech
made by Mayor Fearing In which he used
lot OF unnecessary language which did
not do him the least good. The Mayor
loses his temper easily, and last night II
got beyond his reach. In many things
during the year he has been de-
feated by what he supposed was his
supporters and last night he vented little
spite out on them. The only thing he
had q kind word for was the Police
Department, speaking OF Captain Garnett
in the highest terms, but OF the "com-
mon officers" saying not word. He said
the streets were disgrace to the city and
In fact he had never known OF the city
being run 30 badly. He said what author
ity he had over the police was gauged
by newspaper criticisms OF partisan
nature. Alderman Hammett answered
the Mayor, saying things were not so bad
as he tried TO make out and that some oil
his remarks were overdrawn. He also
spoke Ia highest praise of Alderman Boyle
who retires after many years OF faithful
service. The Inauguration OF Mayor
Waters will be on Monday noon and then
IL will roma!n to be seen what will be
done.
