MARKS SALE. {

The Regular Sale Sept. ! Will Give Sheep
Raisers q Chance to Invest.
L The regular sale of the E. Mark Live
Stock company will occur on Saturday
Sept. Z, and promises to be one of the
best of the series. In addition to the
usual number. of horses Mr.. Mark will
offer for sale a large number of mich
cows and 500 sheep, mostly ewes. The
sheep industry is rapidly coming into
prominence in this section and the
farmers find that no better method of
clearing land can be adopted than that
OF pasturing sheep on their brushy
tracts. The increase and. the ,pelts
makes it doubly profitable too. ' .
Besides the sheep and COWS the COM
pany will offer 125 western horses, 100
drafters and drivers, and the usual
stock Of wagons, buggies, harness, farm
machinery, etc. The company also has
"a few Shetland ponies left which will
be closed out. - -:.. ...s.'.ss. ia: 49,

occur Saturday, Sept. 7, rain or shine,

u The County Fair.
The UNION exceedingly regrets that
no steps are being taken to perfect ar
engagements for the holding of a county
fair in Princeton this fall. The fairs
in the past have been reasonably sue.
cessful and have afforded the farmers
OF the surrounding country an oppor-
tunity to meet and compare the pro-
ducts of their farms and enjoy a holi-
day in town. If there is no fair held
this year State aid cannot be had next
year. The State appropriation amounts
to 1865, no inconsiderable item. If any
other town in, the county organizes an
agricultural society and holds fair
this year it will be entitled to and will
receive the State appropriation next
year. There is yet time to complete
arrangements for holding county fair
in Princeton this year. What say the
members of the fair association and
the business men of Princeton? By all
means let there be a fair. Prompt
action is necessary. 1t is the plain
6ntV Of tho 0ffioorc If tho cOoiotv IN
take the initiative. The UNION will
contribute more than its share toward
making the fair success, if it is de-
cided to hold one.

Jimmie Reems, a lad of about fourteen
years of age, was seriously injured
Sunday evening by jumping off the ex-
cursion train near Longs siding. He
got on the train at Princeton to ride
home and when near the siding asked
the brakeman if the train would stop.
Receiving negative reply. he went to
the platform and leaped into the dark
ness. He was thrown down and his
forehead badly cut on a boulder, the
skin being loosened so that it hung
over his eyes. Drs. Cooney and Tarbox
dressed the wound, and while the boy
seems to be doing nicely he is not yet
considered out of danger. The outer
section of the skull shows no indication
of a fracture, but the injury is such
that meningitis is apt to put in an ap-
pearance later.
