The Interstate Fair.

Preliminary arrangements for the
exhibition ofthe Interstate Fair which
will be held at Trenton, September 25,
26, q, % and 30, are already fully
matured, and at recent meetings of the
Board of Directors of the Association
plans were decided upon for several
features and extensive improve
ments to the grounds and buildings.
AT a meeting of the Board of Direc-
tors held early in the present month a
resolution was passed which is intended
to prevent the wholesale scalping of
tickets which has been so generally
complained of in the past. The scheme
to foil the scalpers provides that all
tickets for every day of the exhibition,
except one section each for Wednesday
and Thursday, for the grand stand,
shall be disposed of by the mail order
method. This sale will open Septem-
Der 8, and will close September ID. No
letter for tickets mailed before Septem-
Der 8 will be honored by the agent in
charge of the selling, George Bower, to
whom the orders are cent. Each letter
must be accom- panied by cash or its
guaranteed equivalent.
Not more than six tickets will be re-
served for n person. The choice of
seats will be determined according to
the priority of the postmark on the
letter. I~fseveral letters are postmarked
at the anne time, the seats will be dis
tributed as the letters are opened and
without consideration to the writer.
Any tickets which may remain I'M
sold in the mail order system will be
placed on sale at the Fair grounds the
day for which they are issued.
The sections in the grand stand re-
served for Wednesday and Thursday
will be placed on sale at the grounds
at 8 o'clock, Wednesday and Thursday
mornings. This plan was adopted that
those living outside of Trenton may
have an opportunity to get good seats
as late as the day they attend the fair.
The Directors also decided to change
the price of seats for Big Thursday. On
that day only the grand stand chairs
will cost 81 each, and those in the club
house section will be sold for So. This
rule was also adopted as a check to
spectators. The prices other days will
be so cents for the grand stand and 81
for the clubhouse.
The auction sale of boxes will take
place Thursday afternoon, September
IA, at 2 o'clock at the grounds. The
sale of booth and dining privileges will
be held at the grounds the afternoon of
Saturday, September 9, at 2 O'Clock.
One of the features of the Fair this
year will be a dog show of extensive
proportions. To make the show a
thorough success the Fair Association
has joined the American Kennel Club,
and this utilization will bring to Tren-
ton during Fair week the very best
dogs in the land. To provide for this
feature department., a new structure is
being erected which will have room for
more than a thousand dogs.
Secretary Mahlon r. Margerum has
planned additions to all the usual at
tractive departments, and the display
this year in the agriculture, fancy work,
art, livestock and other branches will
be greatly augmented. The vaudeville
feature will present daily entirely new
feature attractions from the selected
fields of this and foreign countries.

Let Us Rejoice Together.

The year which we have entered
viii be full of profit and prosperity
for Pacific Coast miners. The years
of abundant snow and rainfall are
always ones of overfowing produc-
tion, for they mean an abundance OF
water in the streams, with power in
plenty for a long and full season OF
operation. When the streams are
bank full, the placer miner is also
busy, and the harvest of tha golden
grains is large. Not only has the
rain been falling in the lower foot
hills, but the snow has been descend
ing on the higher ranges. Nature
smiles with pleasant eye, and the
year 1905 will long be remembered
as bumber year of activity, From
Amador and Calaveras counties;
from old Iuolumne and all the
northern counties, and from Kern,
the coming banner county, we are
receiving encouraging reports.
California will beat the record OF
recent years in 1905. f. Mining

PIoCHE NEVADA. FRIDAY. FEBRUARY l9O5
Taking Tree of Kentucky.

Out ON the farm of Will Albert,
near Heath, the people of that sec
tion are wrought up over the "talk-
ing tree" that has been there for
some time. Enormous crowds con-
tinue to congregate thore almost
every Sunday to hear the strange
noises that emanate from the tree.
The voice can be distinctly heard
and says "there are tr luried
. my roots"
A party consisting VI unv most re-
liable citizens Of the country visited
the tree not long since to make
thorough inv stigation for them
selves as TO the noises being heard.
They listened patiently for several
hours and were preparing to leave
for home when sudden crash,
which has been given many times
before the marvellous production of
a human voice, came.
The mystery yet remains unsolved
and so great has the number of peo-
pie been who have gone there in the
past several months that the tree is
now dead, caused by the continuous
tramping on the earth surrounding
the tree.
The only theory that has been
suggested is that man was killed
under the tree in 1862, and while
many do not believe in "spirits, :"
the facts are so plain, and the voice
can be 20 distinctly heard that they
cannot dispute the fact. A family
of people who lived there many
years ago became so frightened from
the voice that they sold their farm
at sacrifice and went west and are
now living in Texas. -Paducah
