THE FAIR A CERTAINTY.
Washington County to the Front Again
Johnson City the Place

johnson City the Place.
II. j. Cox, retired merchant of this
city, has made up his mind that Fair
is badly needed in this county, and
that Johnson City is the place to have
it. He has arranged to begin work at
once on the buildings and fence, and
will grade the race track in short
time. He will build large building
for general display of farm products
and fancy work and will build close
stables for stock. The ground will be
fenced by a six-foot board fence with
three strands of barbed wire above
The Fair ground is just west of the
city-and about minutes walk from
public square, we'll watered and admir-
ably located for the purposes. The
catalogues and premium lists will be
given to THE COMET in a short time to
print and everything will be in readi-
ness for successful Fair early in Sep
TENDER.
At meeting of the Board of Trade
last Friday evening Mr.. Cox was pres
ent and outlined his plans. The board
unanimously passed resolutions en-
dorsing the enterprise, and encourag-
ing him in his undertaking.
THE COMET will have more to say of
the enterprise as work progresses.

OF Hotel Greenwood
We are requested to announce that
the Thankful Baptist church (coIored)
will have rally the fifth Sunday of
this month for the purpose of raising
funds to repair the church.
The Ladies Aaid society of the First
Baptist church gave an ice cream and
strawberry supper in the Harr- Burrow
building Thursday evening, and it
proved quite remunerative.
VIM. E, Uptegrove, of New Ysrk, is
in the city on business connected with
his large manufacturing interests here.
His veneering and dimension stock
plant here is the largest in the south
and is constantly being extended.
Mr.. aHd Mrs. John P. Crouch and

1t is humiliating to proud, sensa-
tive person to suffer from catarrh of the
head or throat. These disorders, if
neglected, become chronic AVID are
most distressing and discomforting to
the sufferer, and disgusting to ac-
quainances or friends. The child with
dirty nose caused by a cold in the
head, or the adult with foul breath
caused by catarrh, are equally obnoxi-
GUS. Both disorders can be promptly
remedied. DIR. BELLS PINE TAR

President Hunt Here,

Samuel Hunt, president and general
manager of the o. r. & @. read arrived
in Johnson City in his special car last
Saturday and remained until Monday.
He was accompanied by Mr.. E. R.
Dick, Philadelphia capitalist, and
Mr.. II. L. Stroupe, train dispatcher of
the Cincinnati, Portsmouth, 4 Virginia
road, of which road Mr.. Hunt is also
president The object of the visit was
to inspect the line of road from here to
Erwin and arrange for some needed re-
pairs to trestles, ETC..
Mr.. Dick is largely interested in the
B. E. & N. c., road and it is believed
that he contemplates extending the
line from Ellzabethton to connect with
the o. r. & G. This would give John
con City an outlet to the east and west
Independent of the Southern and would
be boon to our business interests.

"Nig" Married.

Tuesday evening Snaps livery sta
BILE was scene of gaiety. A large
crowd Of the leading citizens was as
sembled there to witness the marriage
OF Thos. Young to Olivene Ford.
Promptly at S:15, o'clock the bridal
party arrived in their carriage drawn
by Snaps big grays. The carriage
drove to the center of the stable and
was there met by Esquire Gump, who
performed the fatal ceremony that
made these two coons, that did not look
alike, one. After the ceremony Mr..
and Mrs. Young were presented with a
few useful houseb old articles including
cake of soap, something that would
be kept always in remembrance of the
occasion. The presents were given by
admiring friends and presented by
Judge Lyle in a suggestive speech.

home of Tom Murphy where wedding
feast was spread.

by local applications as they can not reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that Is by cOnstitu-
tional remedies Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube When this tube is inflamed
you have u rumblng sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed, deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed condition Of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of deafness Caused by catarrh) that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for

War and Its Results.

After our season was over last fall the
Hotel was closed fer the winter. Re-
Gently discovered the house was in
tested with rats, they were destroying
the bedding and bed clothes and MAX
ing havoc of everything. RAT CHEESE
was recommended; tried it and was
surprised at the marvellous result. In
a few days there was not rat about
the place, they seemed to have left the
barns and out houses as we'll as the HO-
tel. Every one who is pestered with
rats or mice should try Rat Cheese at
once; it did the work quickly and well
for me gladly recommended it. A de-
cisive battle quickly won. Please send
me one dozen boxes by express and
oblge.
Yours very truly,
S. III. JOHNSON,
