Gets Its Share.

When the job bank OF Corvallis
failed in June 1893 there was on de,
posit in it sl,l99.92 belonging To
Lincoln county. The bank has paid
three ten per. cent dividends. A suit
was brought to recover the full
amount on the grounds that 1t was a
trust fund. 1t has been hotly con-
tested for about three years, with nc
end TO the number OF demurrers
made. Judge Fullerton has just
rendered final decision allowing the
county its pro rata share OF thirty
per cent, the same as other depositors,
and il will thus probably get enough
TO pay its attorneys. Perhaps a les
son is learned from it.-Albany Dem.

STAFFORD SPRINGS FAIR.
October 6, r and 8.


 The Stafford Springs Fair Is an event in the happenings of the year second to none. The Fourth of July, Thanksgiving and Christmas, are all enjoyable, but the fair, in some respects, Is even more popular than these established holidays. In fact, the fair has the element of excitement that makes the Fourth enjoyable. the ele- ment of family reunion so noticeable at Thanksgiving, as we'll as the element of good cheer and friendly fellow feeling that characterizes Christmas. The ques- tion in this vicinity is not, Are you going to The Fair" but, (Which day are you going?" or, "Shall you attend all three days? ?" It is safe to wager that every man, woman and child, within radius of ten miles, will get there, at least one day, if they have the price to spare. Out side the ten-mile limit the attendance will not be so general, but there will be enough to swell the crowds that are always here, very materially. Let lem come! They will get their moneys worth. There is 8 kind of touch-and-go get-up-and-get spirit about the local fair that pleases people and makes them want to come again. There is something to be seen to interest all. The bicycle cranks can watch the wheels go around. This year there is to be four bicycle events on the first day. Charlie Newton, rider on which the flies find it difficult to alight upon when he Is in race, will be worth Ithe price of admission to see take the two profes- sional events. Lovers of horse flesh will see some hot racing for liberal purses The free-for-all, on the second day, Is bound to be an interesting event, as the purse is $500, which Is worth fighting for The poultry show this year will as usual be a feature, and it does beat all what a lot of birds they get together every year.
 Horses and cattle, on their respective days, will be present in large numbers. The balloon will go up-the band will play-the fakirs will yell. Speaking of fakirs, many applications are already in for ground rent, and there is no doubt that the midway will be as lively as usual. These people add much to the attractions Of fair, and they are always present in large numbers here. The stories they tell, the songs they sing and the games they work help to instruct and amuse the crowd in attendance.
 Another drawing card that is made much of is the platform show. The best talent in this line that can be secured will be in evidence this year. There will be dancers, athletes, magicians, comedians, trick and burlesque bicyclist, etc., to take up the time between the heats, and keep things moving. The management of the fair recognize the fact that the fair must not be allowed to deteriorate, even if the times are hard, and have spared no pains and expense to find good attractions and book them for Stafford. The indi- cations are at present that one of the most successful fairs ever held will be Oct. 6, 7, and 8, in the year of grace, 1896.
