Contract Let

The contract was awarded this MORN
ing to Harry Madgwick for the building
of the grand stand, industrial exhibit hall
and Judges stand by the Lewiston Inter
state Fair association and work started
this afternoon. The approximate cost
will be about $1,000. Work was also be-
GUN on the fences surrounding the fair
grounds and a picket fence is also being
placed enclosing the track from the inner
grounds. Sheds are also being built for
cattle, sheep and hogs. These, when
completed will be all that is necessary to
put the grounds in first-class shape for the
opening of the fair.
The exhibits, which are being pre-
pared by NJ. J. Vessels, are rapidly being
placed in shape to install as soon as the
building is ready so that there may be no
delay in the date of opening. -
| The n. P. has notified the association
that a 2-cent rate has been granted du-
ring the fair week.
The following clippings from the Port
land Oregonian and Telegram of Sept "a
and I3 regarding the handling Of the
races there by President Willis, the gen
tleman who has been engaged by our
fair association as presiding judge and
starter, speaks for itself. Our people are
assured of fair and clean racing, some
thing very much to be desired. With
such man in the judges stand and our
association member of the National
Trotting association, all crooked work
will be brought up with a round turn,
and the best horse made to win, as far as
such thing is possible.
The first days races of the Portland
! Driving company were a pronounced
success. Everyone present was satisfied.
Manager Wills, by his honest methods
and iron rulings won the confidence of
the people. Aside from imposing fine
of $50 on one driver for pulling a race,
another was taxed "a for OBTAINING a race
four minutes. Another large crowd is in
attendance today and the races are going
with snap.
That Portland people will see good,
honest sport during the balance of the
week at Irvington park, was manifested
yesterday afternoon, when Hellar, driver
of Voto, was fined $50 in the secord heat
of the first race, 2;25 class trotting, for
pulling his horse, and the heat and all
bets were declared off. Hellar deliber.
ately transgressed and the judges treated
him accordingly. There was loud roar
on the part of Hellar, as we'll as those
who won on the heat, but it was no
go, the judges were firm in their decision.

While sitting there she engaged in
conversation With a pleasantlooking
woman, also enjoying the shade of the
lold tree, and somehow told all about
her hopes and disauuointments in re-

Her listener was a sympathetic per

to a certain department for eXamina-

was placed in a much more lucrative
position than she had hoped for.
