THE COUNTY FAIR.

. The Orleans County Fair, held on
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday
of last week, fell on three perfect
N days and as a consequence the at
NJ tendance was large and the fair a
success. The first day amounted to
little, except the getting in and set
ting up of the exhibits, stands, booths,
n etc. Wednesday morning the stream
Y of teams and people began to roll in
and from that time till afternoon the
crowd increased. The county fair is
thing peculiar to itself. 1t is time
when the larger share of the people
\ in the county and vicinity make
plans to attend the fair, see one an
other, do little business and "take
\ in'' the sights. The people are repre-
sentative of the localities where the
fairs are held, and while there will be
a rather poor crowd about the dance
halls. the cider barrels, and the
chance game stands, there will be a
better sort in the halls, about the
stock pens and on the grand stand,
where an occasional minister and
deacon, exhausted by his rounds on
the grounds, crawls up just in season
Ito see the county trot.
A thing that is harmful, among
much that is harmless, is the permis-
sion of great deal that is gambling
in the miIder and initiative sense, and
the sale of a great deal Of stuff that is
made of liquids containing some per
cent of alcohol and large per cent
of uncertainty. To introduce the
youth of the county to this sort Of
danger and decentralization is not adj
|vantageous to the morals of COM
munity This evil is on the increase
land the law or the voice of the public
must be set against it. The order
about the ground was excellent and
there were few if any who were. the
worse for liquor. The police arrange
ments were excellent. No accidents
occurred to teams or people.
The number of exhibits in the yards
was average, the horse department
being less full than usual, while the
cattle show on the whole was good,
the sheep and swine pens over full.
Floral hall exhibition, SO far as the
ladies had to do with it, was unusual
/ " attractive. The fruit stands were
well filed, while the vegetable de-
partment was light. Several parties
helped to make the hall attractive by
private exhibitions. There was the
usual out of door show of agricultural
machinery, sugar evaporators, dairy
machinery, carriages, etc.
HORSES.
In this department, as in all others,
. it is difficult to see everything and
such things as came under our notice
will be mentioned, much of necessity
being omitted. Tt is evident that the
interest in horses is running low. The
number shown and the crowd who
gathered about to see them denotes
that horses are not in it at present.
Among the stations, all of them good,
was the Valley Bros Centello, the
Frank True horse, the Golden, owned
by S. E. King, the Conley horse and
the II. B. Stewart horse, which prov
ed to be a fast one on the track On
the draft horse side there were the
z. w. Spencer and A. J. Drown horses
of repute in their localities. Among
the younger stations we mention a
good horse from the Clyde River
stables, also three year old entered
bv A. J. Drown; among two year olds
was a good one owned by r. Walker,

The Volcano.

The condition of the volcano last Fri
day afternoon was more or less the
same as the week previous. There is a
very big volume of smoke, which de-
notes fire, of course. At night the glare
is easily seen on the cracks. The lava
turns red hot The surroundings of the
crater are so heated that it is almost
impossible to walk over the black lava
