The County Fair.

The jefferson County and Rock
River Agricultural society will hold
the best fair in it's history at Jeffer-
son, October 4, 5, 6 and z. Some OF
the attractions: A. j. Kemp's famous
Wild West company will give free
exhibitions every afternoon between
the heats of the races. K. P. Speedy,
the celebrated high diver, formerly
with Ringling Bros circus, will dive
50 feet into tank of water in front Of
the grand stand, both forenoon ana
afternoon, on Wednesday, Thursday
and Friday. The base ball tourna-
ment will consist of the following
teams competing: Wednesday, Water
loo VS.. Jefferson; Thursday, Fort At
kinson VS.. Lake Mills, and Friday the
two winning teams will play the cham
pionship game. Good music every
day. Wednesday the Waterloo band
will furnish the music, Thursday the
Lake Mills band and Friday the cele-
/ brate6 Arion band of Jefferson. Fri
day is military day and should be the
greatest day in the history Of the So
ciety. A dress parade is going to be
given in front of the grand stand by
Co. B. First Wisconsin regiment, and
the society has also the assurance of
other companies participating in the
event. Both close order and extended
drill will be gone through.
Carnival of speed: Some of the
fastest performers in the northwest
will attend the fair Entries for the
horse races are coming in better than
ever before Exhibits in all depart
ments insure success.
The county fair is an institution
that is deserving of the presence and
support of every citizen Of the coun ty-
1t now stands pre-eminent in the list
Of county fairs, and this year should
add greatly to its reputation.

once or twice, in counting 81 votes
cast, whereas the convention was COM
posed of but 80 delegates.
Our good friend, Henry Grell, of
johnson Creek, had narrow escape
from being nominated for treasurer.
Notwithstanding his late entry into
the field, he mustered considerable
strength and he will probably be in
line for the place two years hence.
In his rattling good speech nomi-
mating Frank A. Zimmerman, Mr.
Bullock caught the convention and no
doubt made several votes. for his
protege.
Adam Fuchs nomination for sheriff
was the result of spontaneous OUT
burst of popular favor. His name
was not even presented to the con-
vention, but when it was realized q
deadlock was on and that neither of
the Lake Mills candidates could be
named unless their forces were united,
many of the delegates cast about for
a new man and the choice fell to Mr..
Fuchs. He made a gallant run for
the same Office four years ago and is
considered a strong candidate.
The nomination of Fred Bullwinkel
for county clerk was the natural re-
ward for a highly efficient and popular
official. 1t is conceded by all parties
that he has never had an equal in
the clerks Office.
The handsome endorsement given
Watertown's candidate, Albert j.
Weis, speaks volumes for that gentle
mans record the past two years.
There was not particle of sentiment
In the whole convention against him
and his denomination was made by a
rising vote. His name was presented
very neatly by Edward F. Wieman, of
this city, and a strong seconding
| speech was made by Colonel Burchard,
of Fort Atkinson. Mr.. Weis has evil
IDENTIFY greatly added to his long estab-
lished popularity during his term as
register.
James L. Cook made a decided hit
and gained many friends when, after
| his defeat, he made a rousing little
speech expressing thanks to his sup
porters and offering his services to
| Mr.. Fuchs.
Upon learning that District Attorney
Wigdale was to have opposition for
denomination, and at the urgent re-
quest of other delegations, the Water
town delegation decided at the last
moment to present Edward F. Vie
mans name to the convention. Al
though no canvass had been made in
! Mr.. Wieman's interest, he showed up
strong and was only few votes be-
| hind Mr.. Wigdale on the final ballot.

The Bicycle Meet.

The bicycle races at Washington
park Saturday afternoon furnished
amusement for a goodly number of
young people, although the attendance
was not nearly so large as it should
have been, considering Manager
Thomas generosity and public spirit
in offering the proceeds as a starter
for a soldiers monument. For the
most part the races were excellent
trials of speed and considerable rival

pants. Following is the summary:

Purchased the Brewery

The foreclosure sale of the property
of the defunct A. Fuermann Brewing
company occurred at o'clock Satur-
day afternoon. Sheriff Roach con-
Quoted it and the plant and other
realty was bid in at S15, 900 by Attor-
ney George H. Wahl, of Milwaukee,
who acted as the representative of
William Hartig. The sale price is
Sc Jeral thousand dollars short of the
mortgage which is held by G.. H.
Meyer, of Milwaukee.
A portion of the Fuermann plant has
been used by William Hartig for sew
eral months for mailing purposes, and
it is given out that this will be contin-
ued. Very shortly, however, some
needed improvements will be made to
the plant, new floors and roofs will be
built, and the capacity greatly en-
larged, the idea being to convert the
plant into an immense malthOuse.
The improvements contemplate the
removal of the icehouses and the erec-
tion of a new elevator. When COM
pleted this plant, in connection with
the present plant of Mr. Hartig, will

Yesterday John D. Bullock, of the
town Of Watertown, was notified by w.
B. Scott, commissioner of internal
revenue, of his appointment as an
internal revenue agent under provi-
sions of the act of June 13, 1898, and

gion, are indeed pleased to hear of his
good fortune. That he will be entirely
equal to whatever demands the duties
of the position may make, goes with

Jones for Congress-

Upon the 107th ballot in the Demo
cratic convention at Portage Friday
morning, Mayor j. E. Jones, of Por-
tage, was nominated for member of
congress for the Second district The
result was brought about by the Dane
county delegation turning from their
candidate and voting for the Columbia
county man, giving him eighteen
votes, just enough to nominate. Mr..
Jones is editor of The Portage Demo
crat and something of a political
worker. He was a pronounced free
silverite two years ago. The conven-
tion was presided over by James w.
Moore, OF this city, and was in dead
lock as to a nominee from Wednesday
to Friday morning. The resolutions
adopted leave the money issue entire
ly alone.

NOTES OF THE CONVENTION.

Fred Prentiss is becoming veteran
secretary. He rarely enters a meet
ing of any sort but what he is chosen
to keep the records all because of
his well-knOwn accuracy.
Chairman Damuth struck popular
chord when he advised the resolutions
committee to submit a platform, and
not be afraid to let the people know
how their party stands, as were the
Democrats in the same convention hall
a few weeks previous.
While waiting for the report of the
credentials committee, the convention
was favored with addresses by II. A.
Porter, of Fort Atkinson, and A. j.
Thorne, of Palmyra, candidate for
assemblyman in the First district.
John Bullock, Ed May and F. c..
Hausen were very efficient tellers
The only fault that could be found
with them was when they persisted,

XVIII.

It is possible that men exist who, in the period succeeding the discovery that they have undergone the mental
 netamorphosis commonly styled fall ing in love, and preceding the critical moment when the object of adoration confesses her sentiments of reciprocity or declares the wooing to have oeen in vain, maintain their clearness Of under standing, their evenness of temper, and their soundness of judgment. It is conceivable, I admit, that such men live; but it has never been my lot tc enjoy the privilege of acquaintance with one of them. do not mean that when love flies in at the window common sense rushes out at the door; but l do hold that the newcomer is prone to exert, throughout that period of storm and stress, a semi-paralyzing influence over the old tenant, making him sadly
 untrustworthy at times when the de mands upon him are greatest. There fore I regard myself as no exception to the general general, that is, so far as my observation goes-in having followed irrational courses and behaved erratically during three weeks or more of dissatisfaction, uncertainty, and doubt. For one of them madr myself miserable through jealousy of tie man Dorothy's aunt had been pleased to
