STATE FAIR NOTES.

The Commercial Club has appointed
committee of citizens to make arrange
ments for entertaining and caring for
the visitors to the Far. The commission
is assured an unusually large attendance,
and the work Of the club in taking up
this matter is commendable and charac-
terstic of this most excellent organiza-
ton of business men. This committee is
composed of Messrs. Hough, Briggs and
Dam.
The commission is we'll pleased with
the fine entry list of horses for harness
races. All but one race has more than
filled, there being an average OF over
seven entries for each race. This is the
best list ever made at the Yakima track,
and is an indication of the attendance
that may he expected. Entries are in
from Washington, Oregon, California
and British Columbia.
w. L. Connolly, Superintendent of the
pavilion, has recovered from his recent
illness, and 10 making preparations for
decorating the large pavilion with hops,
the great product of Yakima Valley,
This building will be filled to overflow ing
with exhibits, and when properly decora-
ted as it certainly will be. will make
fine exhibit of Yakima products.
Poultry men who contemplate enter
ing their several fowls for exhibition or
premiums should call at the office of the
Secretary, at once and get entry blanks.

BURGLARS At WORK.
Roafs DrnR Store and North Yakima Milling
Companys Store Touched"

About 10 O'Clock Monday morning
Councilman Poole saw two suspicious
looking men on the northeast corner of
Yakima avenue and Second street,
Being in hurry to meet the train Mr..
Poole paid no further attention to the men.
Next morning Wallace Williams of the
Yakima Milling Company, on going to
his register found that 1925 in change
which had been left in the till was gone.
He then discovered that the back door of
the feed store was broken open by some
one from the outside. Nothing else was
missing from the store or office. Mr..
Williams noticed suspicious looking
man ON the corner when he closed up
the night before, and his description tai
lied with that of one of the men seen by
Mr.. Poole. 'The same night robbers
forced an entrance through the back
window of Roafs drug store opposite.
The till of the cash register was plum
dered in like manner to the one across
the street, but nothing more was missing
Rumor had it that the safe was broken
into by the burglars, but in neither in
stance was the safe tempered with by
the thieves.

The Yakima post Office will be moved
to the Syndicate block about October 2 !,
when an inspector will be here to super
intend the removal. The Morgan bid
for $40 per annum being the lowest. the
department awarded him the contract.
The store room adjoining the one on The
corner of Second and A streets will be
used, the contractor to furnish boxes,
heat, lighting, water, etc. Postmaster
Sperrv states that this is not Of hls own
choosing, as he would have preferred to
have the Office on the avenue. but the
contract went 10 the lowest bidder and
he hopes, in time, the public will get
used to the change and be served with
better facilities than ever. The new
theatre will be nearly opposite the new
post office

Convincing n Connoisseur.

Some years ago the late DR.. Colo
nette undertook to make a bottle of
port that should not cost more thar
threepence which the best judges
should be unable to distinguish from
the highest priced wine that could be
obtained in the island. The preparation
was compounded openly before a large
asSemblage, and three competent
judges We're selected to test the prod
uct. The basis Of this compound was
cider. colored with an infusion OF log
wood. To this he added a few grains
Of tartaric acid and salt Of tartar to
give respectively a rough taste and a
mellowed appearance. When three
glasses Of this compound and three
glasses Of recognized port were pre-
scented to the judges to taste and pass
their verdict. without being told which
was which, they unanimously pro-
nounced In favor Of the doctors cheap
preparation and rejected the genuine
port. What they would have said the
next morning if they had consumed a
bottle OF this preparation remains a

ton OF the summer there and during
that time had a number Of weak spells.

although he continued in failing health.
Near the end Of the Long Branch sea
son Mr.. Hobart went to his Paterson
home in company with Mrs. Hobart,
his son and secretary.

that little hope Of his recovery was en-
tertained.
