A meeting of the directors of the Au-
dubon county fair was held here last
Friday at which time the subject was
considered in forming q stock company
to own and operate the fair. With this
in view a committee was appointed to
draft articles of incorporation, and an
other committee to canvas for the sale
of stock. 1t is desired to sell $50 shares
of $50 eacn, one.half to be paid down.
There will be another meeting of the
directors one week from tomorrow, the
25th, if the business can be arranged
that soon, to hear the reports of these
committees and decide on action. 1t is
thought that if the association is con-
trolled by stockholders there will be so
much more direct responsibility that it
can be more successfully managed.
Several friends of A. F. Drake realiz-
ing the condition his loss by fire Mon
day put him in have subscribed up to
yesterday SIT for him, s57 of which
has already been paid in cash. M. N.
Esbeck and other leading business men
headed the list and w. P. Farguson
passed the paper around. Mr.. Drake
very gaeatly appreciates this. generous
action by his friends and values the
good will thus shown him in his misfor-
tune even more than he does the money.
Mr.. Drake thinks he was not treated
right by the Kimball organ company
who. npon hearing of his loss, terminal
ed his contract and put him under the
disadvantage of making immediate set
Element for instruments on hand. He
has settled with them, although it was
inconvenient to do so just then. He is
continuing in the musical instrument
business and his friends over the county
surely should favor him now with any
orders they think of placing in that line
this spring as he is fully prepared to
make the very lowest prices.
