COUNTY FAIR PROMISING
Reports Come to the Secretary that
Makes Him Feel Confident of a
Good Week.

Secretary Wheaton, of the Fair AS
ISOLATION, returned This morning from
Chanute. where he saw what the 9th
er fellows have and what they are do
ing. He succeeded in meeting most of
the horsemen and added some more
speedy goers to the list Of those that
will be here for our Fair next week.
The fair has been widely advertised,
more so than usual, and indications
are that the attendance this year will
be good. While the dry weather will
cut down the agricultural display,
people who have some good stuff will
take pleasure to ente" it as sign to
the world that Allen county is as good
as her neighbors. The county that
makes any kind of "a good fair this
year will get lots of advertising and
resulting benefit. Then there is lots
of fruit. apples and peaches and pears
and grapes that are fine. Poultry has
not been drouth- bitten and live stock
is one of the big features at all the
lalfS tnlS year.
1t is now assured that the racing
will be interesting as the horses secur-
ed are fast goers although not so num-
erous as on some years. The automo-
bile races are certainty and this
feature of each day ought to attract a
good crowd The railroads have
made rates and there is no reason
why, if everyone exhibits something,
that this years fair shall: not be u
great big success.
Remember next week, Tuesday is the
day to make your entries and We'd
nesday, Thursday and Friday are the
days when you can picnic at the
grounds, listen to the lola band, which
is among the best in this part of the
state, see the races, visit friends and
give your family the only outing they
have had this year at less cost than IN
any other way.
Racing every day.
Automobiles last three days.
The full band furnishing music all
the time.
Stand up for Allen county and make
some exhibit, if it's only the bigges
nubbin on the farm.

MORE BOSTON BANKS
ARE TO CONSOLIDATE

Boston, Dec. THE movement
towards the combination of national
banks in Boston which recently has
been marked by the consolidation of
four of the leading banks into two,
continues, and today it is admitted that
negotiations are under way for the
consolidation of the Washington and
Suffolk and possibly the Webster or
the National Union as well, though in
the case of both the last two the fact
is not yet confirmed
The Washington Bank is evidently
taking the lead in the matter. 1t is said
that the new directorate viii COM
prise that Of the Washington with that
of the Suffolk. while the capital stock
of the Washington will be increased
from S750,0OO to 81, 600, 600.
The charters of both banks expire in
two years. and it has been proposed to
change the name after the liquidation
to the National Suffolk. Because of
prominent interests allied with the
Washington and Union and the Wash
ington and Webster banks, it is be-
lieved that one or both of them will ul-
timately be included in the merger.
