COUNTY FAIR
THE BIG FAIR
Everything Points to It's
Being Record Breaker.
ATTRACTIONS GALORE
Sept. 9-10-11 the Dates. Wild West
Show Free Feature. Hicks
Predictions Barred.

Hicks, the weather prophet, pre-
diets rain on the dates of the Grant
county fair this year. 1t may rain
down there in ST. Louis where he
figures up the weather in advance,
but we have it ON good authority
that right in this section we are to
be favored with three elegant fair
days.
Pres. Abrams, Secy. Budd and
their corps of assistants are not dis
heartened over the preachers pre-
diction, at least, and are eXhausting
every means in their power in
securing entertaining features and
giving same publicity throughout
the county.
The county fair is an institution
that never grows old. 1t was
started in the pioneer days of the
county, and while the county fair
of to-day is far different from the
county fair of the pioneer days, yet
the feature of making exhibits Of
the farm, dairy and kitchen is
maintained, and the prize pumpkin,
the prize steer and the prize colt
can be seen at the fair to-day as
well as the big lot of special attrac-
tons that were unknown in the pio-
neer days. You will be able to see
the good fashioned country fair at
the fair grounds in Lancaster Sept.
9-10-11, and you can also see a big
list of special attractions that are
to be thrown in without any addi-
tional cost.
The management has been fort
innate in securing some of the best
amusement features for the fair
this year ever seen in this part Of
the state, and the best Of it is they
will be free as the wind to every
one who pays his admission at the
gate and enters the grounds. The
racing program has not been neg
lected, either, and the hOrsemen
who have already signified their
intention of entering one or more
animals in the events are numerous
and there is assurance that there
will be some fast ones here
to compete for the liberal purses
hung up.
The ladies of the city and county
are urged to have articles on exhibit
ton in the art hall. These depart
ments are always of interest and
should be unusually attractive this
season as liberal premiums are
offered. The officers of the fair
also urge the farmers and stockmen
to cooperate with them in making
the fair a success. Everybody
should make arrangements to at
tend the fair at least one day; Thurs
and Friday will both be good days,
and there will be 10 county fair in
Wisconsin this year more worthy OF
liberal patronage.

The races were excellent, and a
big field of horses contested. w.
B. Dyer of Lancaster captured sec
ond money in the two-year-old class
with his promising colt, Billy Bail
ely. Those who witnessed the
youngsters performances pronounce
him to be one of the most promis-
ing colts ever hooked to a sulky.
The colt is a son of that noble sire,
Lumpwood. Mr.. Dyer lays the
fault of not winning the race to the
fact that his stall number was the
unlucky Is. The colt is entered ia
the youngsters class at Darlington

gineer of the Public Works department

day by a vote of II to 10, after a long

superintendent Cooper was called be-
fore the House and explained the need
of an engineer. He refused to pledge
himself as to who should have the po-
sition further than to state that he

WIRELESS REORGANIZATION.

The affairs of the Wireless Telegraph
Company are to be reorganized. The
Henry Waterhouse Trust Company is
attempting the reorganization. The
arrangement with it's creditors which
has existed for the past year ceased
with the first of July. The govern
ment subsidy of $1,000 a month is not
available until certain improvements
which will cost considerable money
have been put in. The plan proposed
is for the trust company to advance the
money required to comply with the
terms of the subsidy, and to take over
absolutely the control and operation of
the system, until the advances have
been worked out. The improvements
include the stretching of a land wire
from Honolulu to the station at Bar
ber's Point and from Mahukona to
Hilo. The telephone companies have
agreed to allow the use of their poles
for stretching the wiresless' wire on,
so that the cost of these improvements
will be materially reduced.
