FAIRFIELD COUNTY.
HUNTINGTON.

SECOND DAY AT THE HUNTINGTON FAIR. Thursday, the second day of the Huntington fair, the weather man did all he could to make the day 8 perfect one for the gathering of friends on the fair grounds, to greet one another and to enjoy the sights of the fair and see the horse trOt. It being a fine day for driving, about 2O00 people were on hand in their fine automobiles and carriages. The faces of the fair direc- tors wore pleasant smile and they did all in their power to have everyone have very enjoyable day. D.. B. Booth. IT,, of Stratford, who is agent for all kinds of farming machinery, and is public spirited man, lent his aid to entertain the people. In his covered wagon which was drawn up near the main building, he had a squash which everyone who wished could have free chance to guess the number of seeds in the squash, the one guessing the nearest to the right number was to receive a cultfvatOr, the next nearest a corn planter, the the third nearest, a package of SO- Boss-So and sprayer, the prizes all be- ing presented by MT Booth. Richard Lynch, Derby, took the cultivator. AA16 N1s A. W lloOu OA AAuuUluS JUL, OuC corn planter; John Benedict of Step w, Smith of AnSonia had his Shetland ponies from his farm in Monroe there, and there were not many things at the fair, especially with the boys and girls, which attracted more attention. There were two mares with the little colts by their sides and fine stallion. To the D. M. Read Go. of Bridgeport, the fair directors are indebted for sev- eral special premiums which they were able to offer and did much to add to the success of the fair.

Eight cents a pound IS what a young woman paid for twelve pounds of flesh.
 She was thin and weak and paid one dollar for a bottle of Scott's Emulsion, and by talk ing regular doses had gained twelve pounds in weight before the bottle was finished.
 Eight cents a pound IS cheap for such valuable ma terial. Some pay more, some less, some get nothing for their money. You get your moneys worth when you buy Scott's Emulsion.

 MT. and Mrs. Tomlinson expected to en- certain in honor of their distinguished guests and every day of their visit to Birmingham would have been filled with social enga agements.

 Society will regret that such sad cir cumstances have entirely changed the original plans of MT. and Mrs. Tomlnson and that none of the weeks events will be attended by Mr. and Mrs. Bryan.
 On Thursday afternoon Mrs. Tomlnson and Mrs. Bryan will receive informally.

MISS HAYES TO MEET
 MEMBERS OF Y. w. c. A. BOARD.

The week will be one of unusual inter- est among the members of the Young Women's Christian association. Miss En- ma Hayes, of Chicago, one of the city sec retaries of the American committee, ar rived in Birmingham last night, and will spend the remainder of the week in the city. In addition to the paror confer ences to be held there will be a reception to which the friends of the Y. w. c. A. will be invited.
 Miss Hayes since the meeting of the Gulf States association in Atlanta several weeks ago, has been travelling In the south, and has organized associations in several cities.
 She expected to visit Birmingham im- mediately after the Atlanta conference, but as her visit was deferred it has given the Birmingham association that much time to increase its membership
 The membership contest which has just closed resulted in 107 new members. Miss 1nez Crittenden and the young women working with her secured ffty-eight members and Miss Mae Belle Sloss and
The Birmingham age-herald., 1904-02-09

 The colonial ball to be given tonight by General Clark and Mrs Brooks will eclipse in picturesqueness any event given in Birmingham in many years. It will be the social event of the winter, and every effort has been made to make 1t a mag nifcent affair. Society has taken unusual beauties and beaux who in brocade and satin and lace will transform a modern ballroom into one of hundred years ago have entered with the greatest enthusi- asm into the elaborate plans of Mrs. Brooks. There is no feature of a colonial ball that makes so beautiful and dignifled an opening as the minuet With the re- yival of the minuet, particularly the colonial" which is considered more graceful than any other 1t could not be mastered in a single lesson. There have been daily rehearsals for weeks under the personal directon of Professor Weiss ner, until every participant is perfect. .ek will be danced at 10:30 o'clock. immediate ly after the grand march.
