WEATHER HURTS THE FAIR
Few People at the Bicycle Club
Show Last Night and the Enter
tainment Was Postponed.

tainment Was Postponed.
1t didn't seem bit like the fair last
night. The storm kept the people away,
and what little there was to be done
was done in half hearted sort of way.
The management didn't furnish any
entertainment and Daniel Ross & Son
didn't give away prize as usual. The
voting in the teachers contest was light
and altogether last night was a disap-
pointment as far as the bicycle clubs
fair was concerned, all due to the
weather. Last night was the first night
that the attendance was small.
The entertainment billed for last night
was the club minstrels and. the reason
the show was not given was because the
management really didn't have the
heart to ask the members to play to a
vacant hail. That is, nearly vacant
hall. There were u few there Of course,
but the number that coutd have found
room many times excelled those that
were present. 1t was not the fault of
the management that so few people were
there. The fair is attractive enough,
more so than anything OF the kind ever
held in this city.
Daniel Ross & Son didn't give their
prize last night but the votes that were
cast will be counted tonight.
Professor Whitehead continues to lead
IN the teachers contest for the trip to the
Paris Exposition. 1t was said last night
that on Saturday night delegation from
New Castle will be there and that several

nent New Castle teacher. The vote now
