WHAT WAS
Told Us At The Fair Thursday And FIJI =
day.

First premium was awarded a
hybrid squash for a pumpkin.
The judges in the show rings
are too everlasting slow. We
came to see the ponies go.
Coufound the luck, l can't
stay here until night to see a
race. The races were adver-
tised as the drawing card and
here it is 6:00-Thursday-
and races the last consideTa-
ton Look there, fully two
thirds of the people have left
the amphitheater because of the
hour. Confound it, the farmers
have to go home and the house
wives have to get home to get
supper and possibly for lot of
company.
Thursday and Friday even
ings hund reds of ladies we're
left at the amphitheater for
want of conveyances to get
home and no wise mau would
attempt to reproduce their ejac-
ulatious or feminine 'cuss
words" Hhair trouble was:
They paid to ride TO the amphi.
theater and did not want 10
walk a quarter of mile to
reach hack through dusty
grass knee deep. Most of those
ladies we're middle aged and did
not think they were treated
fairly when the men and daugh
tiers were permitted TO hot
foot" it to the gates, ride home
and compel them to wait, wait
until every one else was served.
Say, why in the thunder don't
they make a show ring in the
field neal the starters stand, so
the speed track will be left
clear and in condition for use
on time, for which it was made.
The above complaints were
general and came from hun
dreds of men and women.
On the other hand we heard
many words of praise. The
horticultural hall, floral hall,
stock pens, amphitheater, we're
one and all given kindly words,
And the races. one and all
thought them warm stuff" and
that they had gotten their mon
ey's worth,
BOARD OF DIRECTORS.

annual election of Directors was

T. Nadsworth.
They decided that date for
fair for 1907 would be tie last
Tuesday in August.
The hot race was the Graft.
tude and Emma Grafton trot.
Both horses owned by r. B.
Landon, of Hannibal, but Emma
Grafton is leased by James
Nickel. There was an accident
in first heat, Gratitude finishing
alone IN 2:33. The next heat
he won in 2:22 and then Emma
scored two heats time of each
